Li Zhenzhen got up as she asked, "I'll soak the food we'll be eating later in hot water first."

When Li Zhenzhen entered the bedroom, Chen Jiaojiao was already sitting on the bed covered with a blanket. When she saw her mother come in, she quickly uncovered the blanket and asked her to sit next to her.

"That old woman curses me every day, calling me a barren hen. She says all sorts of nasty things, vulgar and shameless. I really don't know how the Mo family could have married someone like that. I heard she used to be a college student, but I never would have guessed. This old thing is almost seventy years old and doesn't even have many white hairs. Most of the other elderly people are dead, but she's still jumping around like this. I'm so annoyed with her!" Chen Jiaojiao complained, clinging to her mother's arm.

Li Zhenzhen patted her daughter's head: "Some people's personal qualities have little to do with their level of education. When you were about to marry him, I told you that the woman wouldn't be easy to deal with. The hardest thing about being a daughter-in-law is that the elders are difficult to get along with, and the man is also useless."

Chen Jiaojiao didn't want to hear this and continued, "She's always pressuring me to have a baby. Am I some kind of baby-making machine? Doesn't she know what kind of life she's living? Getting pregnant and giving birth under these circumstances, I think she wants me to die."

Li Zhenzhen also felt that the current situation was not suitable for having a child: "Why don't you stay at home for a couple of days, so you won't be bothered by seeing your mother-in-law?"

Chen Jiaojiao didn't want to stay. The conditions at home were too simple, not as good as the Mo family, who had everything they needed. She wanted to go back.

Changing the subject, Chen Jiaojiao asked, "Mom, is there any news about Dad and the others? I heard last time that the head of the Mo family specifically sent someone to tell you that it's possible to find them via radio."

Li Zhenzhen shook her head: "I tried once, but there were many places where the radio didn't respond, and they probably couldn't get in touch. Since there was no news, I didn't bother them anymore. It's freezing cold, and even if they knew, they wouldn't be able to get through, so I decided to give up."

Chen Jiaojiao's mind stirred slightly: "Mom, what's the deal with that Captain Gao? Why do I feel like he cares so much about our family's affairs? Especially about you, he's so concerned."

Li Zhenzhen raised her eyes, not knowing where to begin. This Captain Gao used to be a martial arts instructor. She had heard from others that he had real skills and was very powerful.

Li Zhenzhen had no doubts. Just the fact that the Mo family appointed him as the security captain for the outer perimeter of the main area showed that this person was no ordinary individual. Moreover, his physical condition was truly excellent; despite the current harsh environment, Li Zhenzhen had not heard him cough once.

However, given Li Zhenzhen's current situation and the Mo family's implicit protection, she had no intention of developing any romantic relationships. In her heart, she didn't think much of Captain Gao either. She had seen too many men, and the idea of ​​love had long been alien to her.

If someone with power like Mo Qing were to come along and give her a chance, Li Zhenzhen would definitely seize it. But with someone like Captain Gao, Li Zhenzhen's current situation hasn't deteriorated to that level.

However, back then, she and Qiqi were careless and this person saw them doing something. Now, Li Zhenzhen has no choice but to deal with him in a nonchalant manner. Fortunately, this person is currently quite polite and has not done anything annoying.
