Bi Qiao’an lay motionless in the icy snow, watching helplessly as the falling flakes slowly buried her. As her consciousness faded, her mind drifted back to the three arduous years she had spent ...
Chapter 775 Fish Cannot Be Eaten
Nuan Nuan pouted and nodded: "Sweet!"
Chen Yanming hugged Nuan Nuan tightly and said, "My dear, you are so good. It won't be long before we can meet our mother again."
"Um!"
Here, Bi Qiaoan seemed to hear her daughter crying, and she frowned and struggled to wake up.
When I opened my eyes, I realized I was dreaming.
The sky was slightly white, and the people lying around were still snoring. Bi Qiaoan used his consciousness to wake An An up, letting him eat in the space before letting the baby out.
"Mom!" An An hugged Bi Qiaoan's neck, feeling very disgusted.
Bi Qiaoan touched An An's belly and asked in a whisper, "Are you full?"
An An nodded, leaned over to Bi Qiao An's ear and said, "Mom, I'm very obedient. I even brushed my teeth."
Bi Qiaoan smiled, thinking that she had already seen it. But she still kissed An An and praised, "Baby, you are so good!"
But when I think of Nuannuan, I’m not so happy anymore.
Bi Qiaoan sighed, took out a small piece of paper and a pen from the space, wrote on it: "Baby Nuannuan, Mom misses you!" and then drew a big heart on it.
It was thrown into the storage area through the transparent light curtain. Shen Yanming saw it immediately and took it out and handed it to Nuan Nuan: "Hey, look, this is what mom gave to our baby Nuan Nuan!"
Nuan Nuan couldn't recognize so many words yet, but she could recognize her own name and the word "Mom". She looked up at her father, and Shen Yanming read them word by word: "Baby Nuan Nuan, Mom misses you!"
After hearing this, Nuan Nuan's eyes lit up, her lips curved, and she held the small piece of paper close to her chest.
Chen Yanming's nose was a little sour, and he replied to Bi Qiaoan with his consciousness: "Wife, Nuannuan is very happy. She misses you very much, and I miss you too, and our son."
When Bi Qiaoan saw this, she smiled happily and asked, "Husband, how far are we apart? Do you want to come to me, or should I go to you?"
Shen Yanming studied the relative positions of the two people and replied, "Wife, you can stay where you are, or migrate with the main group. I am quite far away from you. If I walk, it will take at least two weeks.
There is water outside now and it is impossible to pass normally. I will come to find you as soon as the sea water recedes. "
"Okay, I'll wait for you."
After the call ended, Bi Qiaoan asked An An if he wanted to go to the bathroom. After getting a positive answer, she held her baby son and found a bush.
After confirming that there were no snakes, insects, rats or ants, she asked An An to squat down. She also took the opportunity to take some food from the space and swallowed it whole.
Although it is quite tasteless to eat while watching others go to the toilet, there is no other way now. I can't just leave my son alone or eat in front of others, right?
Bi Qiaoan waited for An An to finish pooping, and then took care of his own physiological problems. After the upper and lower parts were unobstructed, he took out a wet tissue from the space, wiped his and An An's hands and faces, and then slowly wandered back.
At dawn, many people were awake. Seeing Bi Qiaoan and her son coming back, they did not ask any questions. It was just a small matter, so there was no need to ask too much and make others dislike them.
Following Bi Qiaoan's old couple's habit of getting up early, they stood up and stretched their stiff hands and feet, and asked, "Girl, are you hungry? My wife and I are planning to find something to eat. Do you want to go?"
Bi Qiaoan shook his head, not wanting to move for the time being. But he still reminded them, "Just look around here, don't go too far."
"Okay, we know." The old man smiled and took his wife away. The girls who came over yesterday also went in twos and threes to look for things.
Soon, we heard a cry of surprise in the distance: "Fish! Fish! This is good, we have food to eat!"
Bi Qiaoan looked in the direction of the sound and saw several men carrying more than a dozen fish from a distance. She was delighted and felt that Qinghua would not be doomed.
But when people got closer, they found something wrong. These fish were all dead.
"Was the fish like this when you caught it?" Bi Qiaoan asked.
The guy holding the fish looked alert and said to Bi Qiaoan, "What do you care? We got these with great difficulty, it's none of your business!"
Bi Qiaoan rolled his eyes and said, "I'm not asking you for fish. I just think there's something wrong with these fish. Look at them, they're all white and there's a faint stench coming out of them. It's obvious that they've been dead for quite some time."
The young man got angry when he heard this, and pointed at Bi Qiaoan and said, "Nonsense, he was still alive when I caught him! You must be a black-hearted woman like you who didn't want us to have enough to eat, so you're talking nonsense."
Bi Qiaoan looked at the big men around him glaring at him and felt that there was no point in saying anything more, so he shook his head and left.
But she was worried and decided to go to the beach. She said goodbye to the old man and left with An An.
When she arrived at the beach, she found that the sea water had receded a lot. What was newly exposed was a large area of construction waste and a large area of silt.
However, there were dense footprints in the mud, and fish with pale skin struggling to death.
Because of the man's cheers, many people on the shore knew there were fish. So they rushed into the mud, picked up the big fish that had no chance of resistance, and laughed wildly: "There's food, there's food!"
Bi Qiaoan frowned as she watched them, feeling that something was wrong. She told Shen Yanming about this discovery, and then she realized that those fish were not edible at all.
"When we evacuated yesterday, Huangmao was already ill. He had a fever all over his body and had small red rashes. I don't know if this is an infectious disease or if it will be fatal. But one thing is certain, that is, fish cannot be eaten!"
Bi Qiaoan's heart sank. She wanted to shout something, but it got stuck in her throat. If she didn't allow people to eat fish at this time, she would definitely become the target of public criticism. But fish really can't be eaten!
Bi Qiaoan couldn't bear to see so many people die, so he said to a man who ran ashore, "I think this fish is in bad condition. Why don't you not eat it?"
The man stared at Bi Qiaoan as if he was mentally retarded, and after a while he said, "Psycho!"
Bi Qiaoan: “…” She can’t do anything about it!
I returned to the resting place with a heavy heart, and saw the old man and the old woman had already sat down to rest.
When they saw Bi Qiaoan, they said happily, "Girl, we found a pack of biscuits. Do you want to have some? By the way, I saw they caught some fish. How about we catch two too?"
Bi Qiaoan looked conflicted, but when he saw that the old man and woman were not so eager to eat fish, he whispered his guess again.
The old couple was shocked when they heard this, and then they slapped their thighs and said, "Quick, catch up with those girls, don't let them eat without permission!"
After the old man ran away, the old lady said with great sorrow: "After you left, those guys used fish to lure the girls. Some of them couldn't resist and followed them."
