Chapter 808: They've Lost Weight

Finally entering a safe environment, Bi Qiaoan felt relaxed all over.

She was now covered in dirt and was too embarrassed to go find her husband, so she sent a small note to Shen Yanming: "I'm coming in, I'll go clean up first and find you later."

When Shen Yanming saw it, the corners of his lips curled up, and his mood became subtle.

"Old Shen, why are you so happy today?"

Shen Yanming looked up at Tang Shunlin and said, “I just feel that life has been pretty good lately.”

Tang Shunlin nodded. He didn't expect that the past two days would be so smooth. Not only did he find fresh water, but he also encountered a lot of food. "We have been in the mountains for a long time. In two days, we will prepare to leave."

Shen Yanming had no objection to this, but: "Let's prepare some food before leaving. Once we get out of the mountain, we may not be able to find such abundant food."

Ji Shaoming also nodded: "Yes, there are not only wild vegetables and mushrooms here, but also wild rabbits and pheasants. There are many small fish and shrimps in the river, but they are not very big. It would be great if there were large wild animals such as wolves and wild boars. Killing one would be enough to eat for a long time."

Shen Yanming smiled and said, "There should be some in the mountains, but we just haven't encountered them. Maybe, we are still on the outskirts after walking for so many days. However, it's okay if we haven't encountered them. We have few weapons, and it will be difficult to win if we encounter those beasts in groups or with strong combat power."

Shang Haoqiang didn't care: "It's okay, there are so many of us, we can trap them to death."

Shen Yanming did not argue with him, but only said: "It is difficult to preserve things in the summer. Starting tomorrow, we will try our best to dry wild vegetables and mushrooms. We usually eat small fish and shrimps, and we will catch rabbits and pheasants alive and tie them up. We will keep them for as many days as we can."

"Okay, we'll eat and store as much as possible from now on."

"It would be nice if we had salt. We could pickle or smoke it and preserve it for a long time."

Chen Yanming smiled and said, "It's not bad to eat fresh food this way." I'm just afraid that one day, I won't be able to find even fresh food.

He didn't say anything more, but leaned against the mountain wall, wondering when his wife would finish washing. He missed her so much after not seeing her for so long.

On this side, after Bi Qiaoan gave An An a bath, she brought him a lot of food.

She pinched her son's face and said, "Eat your meal, mom will go wash up first."

An An nodded: "Mom, you go ahead, I can eat by myself."

Bi Qiaoan was not very reassured, so he called Big Goose to accompany him.

The goose was happy, but also a little resentful. The host and hostess paid less and less attention to it, and would never think of it unless it was a problem.

Bi Qiaoan stroked its snow-white feathers and said to it, "I've been very busy recently and have no time to come in and accompany you. I was wrong. But things have changed outside and it's very dangerous. Even I have to be careful. You can't go out, or you'll be caught and eaten, and then I won't be able to save you."

When the goose heard this, it shrank back, then shook its head wildly, saying that it didn't want to become a goose in an iron pot.

Bi Qiaoan smiled and put some food in its bowl: "Please take care of An An for me. When it finishes eating, you can ask it to tell you about the changes outside."

Big Goose nodded and looked at An An expectantly, wondering if he would agree.

An An smiled and stroked its feathers, saying, "After we have eaten our fill, I will tell you a story."

Bi Qiaoan looked at his son's happy face and walked into the bathroom with confidence.

His son was a bit of a chatterbox, but everyone had been living in a daze during this period and no one wanted to chat with him. Bi Qiaoan felt that his son might be feeling uncomfortable because of it.

It’s good to have an audience now. Children need to talk, so it can improve their language skills.

Bi Qiaoan took off his dirty clothes and looked at himself in the mirror, speechless.

Although they still look good, their skin is dark, red, and a little cracked. I don’t know how they think they are good-looking?

But when I think about it carefully, at least my skin is not peeling, unlike them, whose faces are covered with patches of skin, which does look a bit ugly.

Moreover, the conflict happened at night, so the bearded man probably didn't notice the difference in their faces at all. All he could see were the facial features.

Bi Qiaoan thought narcissistically. She turned on the faucet and let the warm water flow over her body. Soon, streams of gray water appeared on the ground and disappeared along the floor drain.

Bi Qiaoan curled her lips in disdain, thinking that she was really dirty. Glancing at the dirty clothes, she sighed, took them directly under the shower head to fill the water, and then squatted on the ground to rub them.

The clothes are dirtier than the people. I didn’t even add any detergent, but the water turned black.

Bi Qiaoan quickly changed the water, poured in some detergent, and rubbed the clothes for more than ten minutes before cleaning the more obvious dirt on the clothes. However, some of the stains were left there for a long time, leaving a faint mark.

She didn't care, thinking that this level was enough. If it was too clean, it would be weird.

Bi Qiaoan put the basin and clothes on the sink and continued to rub the black mud off his body.

She didn't turn off the water until she washed her body thoroughly, then she cleaned the bathroom, changed into a silk nightgown, and left the bathroom.

There was no sign of An An in the living room. Bi Qiaoan looked around and found him sleeping in the bedroom.

The big goose was curled up beside the bed. When it heard the noise, it raised its head vigilantly. After finding that it was the hostess, it lay down lazily and fell asleep.

Bi Qiaoan closed the door gently without disturbing them. She was a little hungry, but thinking that Shen Yanming might be waiting for her, she didn't eat and rode her electric donkey directly to the storage area.

Over there, Shen Yanming was already getting anxious.

He carried Nuannuan out of the cave and walked around the cave entrance, fearing that his wife had encountered some trouble and was given away again.

Fortunately, Bi Qiaoan showed up and calmed his nervousness in time. Shen Yanming's palms were sweating, and he wiped them hard on his clothes to cover up his loss of composure.

"Honey, are you asleep? I'm coming in!" Bi Qiaoan said softly.

"Not yet, I'm waiting for you." Shen Yanming did not hide his excitement, his lips curled up and his voice was full of joy.

Bi Qiaoan nodded: "Yeah, are you ready to go to bed? I see it's quite late. Sorry, it took so long to shower."

Shen Yanming didn't care: "Girls are all like this, I can wait, as long as you come."

I don’t know if it’s an illusion, but Bi Qiaoan feels that Shen Yanming is a little humble at this moment, as if he is afraid that he will disappear.

So her voice became sweeter, and she complained to Shen Yanming coquettishly: "In order to enter the space, An An and I walked for several hours before we reached the bearded man's lair. The building here is half collapsed, and it is covered, so it is easy to enter the space.

As soon as I came in, baby An An had taken a bath, had a meal, and was already asleep. But I was still hungry because I had to take care of him. "

Bi Qiaoan touched his arms and legs, and patted his chest: "I have lost weight!"
