Farming for Survival in the Apocalypse

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 995: Exploding

"It's getting late, we have to go back. An An and Nuan Nuan should be out of school at this time." Bi Qiaoan said with a smile.

"Ah? Do I have to pick them up? Oh, it's my fault. We just keep chatting endlessly." Song Wenwan felt a little guilty.

Bi Qiaoan hurriedly comforted him: "It's okay, it's okay, their godfather is there. My husband and I didn't go there, so they must have sent the child home."

"Godfather? Your child has adopted a godfather?"

Bi Qiaoan didn't hide it and nodded: "Well, my friend who I got along well with before has always had this idea. After discussing it with Lao Shen, I agreed."

"A guard, probably. He should be relatively capable and in a relatively high position." Song Wenwan guessed, with a hint of envy in her eyes.

"Yes, Lao Shen's former instructor." Bi Qiaoan said vaguely.

"That's great. There will be someone to protect the child in the future."

"We both thought so too." Bi Qiaoan smiled and took out a bag of candy from his bag: "For Jiahe and Niuniu!"

Song Wenwan was shocked and quickly refused. But Bi Qiaoan said, "It's only once or twice. The weather is getting colder and the guards have limited supplies. It's unclear whether they can get more in the future. Let the child eat. This is a rare opportunity."

Song Wenwan felt a little embarrassed, but when she looked at Niu Niu and Jiahe's eager eyes, she took the candy and her face blushed with shame.

Shen Yanming took out a bag of dried vegetables weighing more than ten kilograms, a bag of rice weighing ten kilograms, and a box of medicine pills from his magical big backpack.

"Here are some commonly used medicines for fever and colds. Keep them."

Wei Liang was very grateful and did not say no. With several mouths to feed at home, no matter how strong his character was, he had to bend his back at this moment.

What's more, the couple were genuinely helping and had no intention of humiliating anyone.

Wei Liang thanked the couple and said very frankly: "I know I don't have much ability, but I will repay you if I have the chance in the future. Thank you for your timely help. If I can't repay you in the future, let my son and daughter pay it back. My Wei family will not be ungrateful."

Shen Yanming patted the other person's shoulder and joked, "Not only are you putting shackles on yourself, you're also tying up your son and daughter. Honey, it's really not necessary, it's not that serious. If you run into trouble in the future, just come and lend a hand."

Wei Liang knew that Shen Yanming was capable, and he said this just because he didn't want to burden himself too much. He smiled gratefully: "I will definitely do it."

"Okay then, we'll go first. It's a little late now, so you can take Jiahe Niuniu with you tomorrow."

"Okay!" Wei Liang sent the man away, then he sighed: "Wife, you deserved to go to college."

"Qiao An was so delicate and weak back then, and she needed me, her elder sister, to take care of her. Who would have thought that she would be so capable now?"

"It only shows that you have a good heart and made good connections when you were in school."

Song Wenwan smiled and felt the same way.

She didn't know about Chen Jin's situation. If she knew, she would definitely be sad.

Wei Liang did hear some of it, but he felt there was no need to say it out loud and make his wife distressed.

The two children ignored the adults' conversation. Wei Jiahe looked at the candy on the bed, swallowed his saliva, and was eager for it, but did not ask for it. After so long, the young man has understood that if he wants to survive, he must be obedient and not mess around.

Niuniu saw his fixed gaze and heard him swallowing his saliva, and she couldn't help but smile. She picked up a candy, peeled it, and stuffed it into Wei Jiahe's mouth: "Brother, you eat it!"

The milky aroma burst out in his mouth, and Wei Jiahe's eyes lit up. But he ate the candy without permission, and felt a little guilty.

I secretly glanced at Song Wenwan and saw her looking at me with a smile.

Wei Jiahe immediately became scared and wanted to spit out the candy in his mouth: "Mom, I'm sorry..."

Song Wenwan guessed his thoughts immediately and said quickly, "Eat it, don't spit it out, don't waste it."

Wei Jiahe nodded and smiled. This was the most delicious candy he had ever eaten. This feeling was so blissful that it made him feel like bubbling with happiness.

He reached out and picked up a fruit from the bed, peeled it and fed it into Niuniu's mouth. Seeing that Song Wenwan didn't say anything, he became bolder.

The young man grabbed two pills, opened the package, and stuffed one into Song Wenwan's mouth and another into Wei Liang's mouth.

Song Wenwan raised her eyebrows at Wei Liang, as if to say, "See? Your son has betrayed us."

Wei Liang smiled, thinking that this boy finally knew how to please his stepmother.

The family of four is very warm and there is no more chaos as before.

"Okay, let's have porridge tonight and go to bed early. Dad will take you to school for the exam tomorrow."

Wei Jiahe and Niuniu were both excited. They nodded and said, "Don't worry, Dad. We will definitely pass it."

Song Wenwan looked at the two people dancing and began to wonder if she should not restrain them.

Maybe sending them to school would make them both happier?

What she didn't know was that Wei Jiahe and Niuniu didn't like the school at all. Instead, after hearing that An'an and Nuannuan were studying in District A, they began to yearn for a life with friends around them.

All in all, it's loneliness.

Wei Liang saw it all, but his home was so far away that the brother and sister were afraid that their wish would never be fulfilled.

Here, Shen Yanming and Bi Qiaoan were scolded by Qi Xili as soon as they returned home.

"Where did you two go without saying a word? If I hadn't happened to pass by, An An and Nuan Nuan would have had to go home alone."

Shen Yanming and Bi Qiaoan: “…” Do you have to pretend like this? Everyone knows that you wait there on purpose every day.

Seeing that the couple didn't speak and looked strange, Qi Xili's forehead veins jumped and he shouted, "What are you still standing there for? Cook!"

"Oh!" Bi Qiaoan said, and went into the kitchen. He prepared the food and then took it to the living room to fry.

In the living room, Shen Yanming had already told Qi Xili about the two children of the Wei family.

Qi Xili nodded after hearing this: "This is a good way to do it. I think we can promote it. For example, those in District D and District C who cannot go to school can study at home. The weather is getting colder, so we should make our rules more flexible, right?"

Shen Yanming nodded: "It's fine if it's okay, otherwise it would be embarrassing to make people excited for nothing."

"Don't worry, it's a small matter. At worst I can go and keep an eye on it tomorrow."

"That's not necessary, it's not a big deal." After Shen Yanming finished speaking, he took over the responsibility of cooking again.

Today, Bi Qiaoan prepared mushrooms, black fungus, and dried vegetables. They were all dried goods that had been stored before, and they would swell when exposed to water, making them perfect for stir-frying.

Soon, the fragrance filled the living room. Qi Xili ate the porridge and the dishes, feeling very comfortable.

When he left, he said, "If you two don't pick up the two babies next time, leave this job to me. The biological parents are careless, and I, the godfather, am not as attentive as them."

"I'm so angry, so angry!" Before Bi Qiaoan finished complaining, she saw Shen Yanming grinning at Qi Xili's back. She thought that the porridge was really wasted.
