They didn't know where the B&B was, but they knew where the Flame Base was.
Yue Xiwen once told them that the B&B was near the Flame Base.
No matter how big the area covered by the word "nearby", it's impossible to walk back and forth in just half an hour, right?
Can't it?
If they were so close, would they still need the Flame Base to deliver supplies to them? They had hands and feet, so they would go and get them themselves.
Every word of the conversation between the two reached their ears, but Xie Pu Rou pretended not to hear it.
He walked towards Zhou Zhengping's location with his head covered, and as soon as he found him, he went into the conference room and discussed with him in detail the issue of transferring the injured.
After chatting for a long time without any result, she decided to go to the hospital first to see the severity of the injury.
When she walked to Lu Ya's side, she put out all the things Lu Ya bought, because she didn't know the way, so she went there with Yue Xiwen.
Zhou Zhengping walked to the door of the meeting room with a worried look on his face when he smelled a delicious aroma, the aroma of fried chicken...
In the past, he would definitely put on a stern face and say "junk food" and not let his wife eat too much.
He lowered his head and touched his belly, which should have been fat due to middle age, but now he was very thin.
As the base commander, he wasn't starving, but the food he ate every day was bland and tasteless. He ate only to stay alive, so he didn't even dare to think about satisfying his appetite.
I shook my head vigorously, trying to get rid of the fragrance lingering at the tip of my nose, but I couldn't.
He touched his belly and found the few pieces of snowflake crisps that Xie Purou had given him earlier.
He took the snowflake crisps out of his pocket. Although he didn't like sweets, his mouth was watering at the sight of the small milky-colored squares in his hand.
There were also dried fruits inside, and the bright colors made him drool.
Thinking that his wife had returned, before he could say a few words to her, he pinched the snowflake crisp and raised a barely perceptible smile on the corner of his mouth.
"Wife, look what good things I saved for you..."
The hand holding the snowflake crisps was suspended in the air in a daze.
What did he see?!
It turns out that the smell of fried chicken just now was not because I was extremely hungry?
Or was it his own eyes? He actually saw his wife eating fried chicken!
Lu Ya really couldn't help herself and fell in love with the fried chicken after taking a bite in the B&B. She knew that it was more important to return to the base first, so she resisted the temptation of fried chicken countless times along the way.
As soon as she returned to her familiar home, she really couldn't hold it back anymore. She quickly closed all the doors and windows and blocked the gaps in the door before taking it out and feasting on it.
The price of fried chicken is cheaper at the B&B, but people here don’t know that.
If someone smells the scent and comes, not only will it cause trouble for my husband, but I will also be unhappy.
I might as well hide it from everyone and eat my fill first.
Hearing her husband's footsteps getting closer, she raised her head and made a whimpering sound, holding a half-bitten pistol leg in one hand and a chicken wing in the other, her mouth still full.
According to Zhou Zhengping's understanding of his wife, the whimpering sound should be saying, "Husband, you are here."
She waved her hands and didn't hear what Zhou Zhengping had just said, which meant that he should come over and eat together.
Lu Ya couldn't help herself and bought a lot of things, buying whatever food she saw.
It was also because they wasted too much time on the way to buy things, and when Xie Pu Rou finished expanding the hospital and came over, they were just about to start eating.
She bought twenty buckets of fried chicken alone, and no matter what Yue Xiwen said, it was useless and she couldn't be persuaded.
At that time, Yue Xiwen had made up her mind to bring Lu Ya back to the base. Thinking that if she bought too much food, she could share it with others, she did not try to stop him.
The consequence of not stopping her was that she gloriously became a bag-carrying girl, carrying one bag after another, even to the point of hanging the things around her neck.
Lu Ya was not idle either, her hands were also full.
The two have a good relationship. Yue Xiwen didn't complain about anything, but just sighed that fortunately her uncle was the base commander and could earn more.
It is no longer uncommon to see people shopping with large and small bags in B&Bs. There are rich people everywhere, and rich people can't control themselves when they see food.
Today's B&B residents are used to seeing people carrying all kinds of things in large and small bags from time to time, and they know in their hearts: they are obviously newcomers.
Fortunately, Xie Pu Rou helped to bring it back using the space, but because of this, no matter how greedy Lu Ya was along the way, she only ate less than a bucket of fried chicken so far.
Zhou Zhengping looked at the golden fried chicken, a thing he had classified as junk food. Could he really say he wanted to eat it?
Without giving it much thought, he was still very confident in the snowflake crisps in his hand, thinking that his wife would definitely like them.
"I left some for you too." He spread out his hands, and the few pieces of snowflake crisps looked very small in his big palms.
Lu Ya chewed the fried chicken in her mouth and fell into deep thought.
After hesitating for three seconds, she took off the disposable gloves in her hands.
Even the disposable gloves in the B&B are good things. They are really oil-proof. After wearing disposable gloves, the oil on the gloves will not flow onto your hands, and you will have clean hands when you take them off.
She took out the tissue paper she bought from the B&B and wiped her hands, which were still sticky, out of habit.
She took out a large bag from the bags behind her, turned the bag upside down, and snowflake crisps exactly the same as the ones in Zhou Zhengping's hand poured out like rain.
Zhou Zhengping: "Wife, tell me the truth, did you go robbing people?"
"Go away." Lu Ya glared at him, old man, you don't know how to speak!
"Tell me what's going on in the world these days. Apart from B&Bs, where else can I find so many good things waiting for me to rob?"
The bag of crystal cores she took with her before leaving was Zhou Zhengping's savings over the years. He thought that with so many crystal cores, even if he couldn't survive and died, those things could cover his wife's expenses for a lifetime.
He had known his wife before the apocalypse, and she still went to work before the apocalypse. After the apocalypse, he didn't want her to see the hardships of life for women at the bottom of society, so he didn't let her interfere in the affairs of the base.
He knew that his wife was soft-hearted, but as the base commander, he had many things beyond his control and could not take care of so many low-level matters.
Even if he wanted to, he was powerless.
There were too many things to do, and too few people available at the base. The psychics were also difficult to manage, as they always wanted to be the boss.
He also had a lot of pain in his heart that he couldn't express.
Since he couldn't protect his wife, he might as well let her resign.
He smiled bitterly and said, "You haven't spent all your family wealth, have you?"
"That's just a few bucks. The crystal cores I spent aren't even as much as the mink you wanted to buy me." I don't know what he was thinking, saving money just to buy a mink for his wife?
Although she didn't understand, Lu Ya felt sweet in her heart. She pulled him down with a gentle smile and pressed him on the seat next to her.
"Just eat something first. Don't worry about whether it's healthy or not. How long has it been since we last had meat?"
Lu Ya didn't want to spoil the fun. She took the snowflake crisps he had left for her and stuffed them into her pocket. "The ones you gave me are definitely sweeter."
