Bai Ling just smiled. Although it was a new world and there were new rural policies, it couldn't be denied that some places were still like this. The so-called unsanitary conditions only applied to areas with water shortages.
How could a world where hygiene knowledge is widely spread be so careless?
Besides, there's absolutely no feces in the world that stinks more than zombie blood, or more disgusting than the appearance of zombies. Hygiene? Is anyone here truly clean? Even if they were clean now, when the zombies come, after they've hunted them down, they'll be starving and choking on food. Will they actually wash their blood-stained hands before grabbing food?
She didn't know why they were laughing at those so-called uncouth rural people now that they were also living in the end times. To put it bluntly, at least they were honest and dutiful, relying on their own hands and real labor to support themselves.
Why should such people be ridiculed? Compared to those who live a life of luxury but commit crimes that harm others, shouldn't they be admired?
They do not have the so-called ability of scholars to earn a living. It is not their choice, but the result of their birth and their living environment.
Bai Ling comes from the countryside. When she was young and sensible, to put it bluntly, she probably lived better than most people here. It is not an exaggeration to say that she lived like a princess spoiled by her parents. Her mother could even buy her any luxury goods she wanted.
But later when she arrived at her grandmother's house, she clearly understood the helplessness and pressure of living alone in this world, but poverty does not mean ignorance.
Besides, the daughter's money should have been used to prepare for old age. Grandma never accepted excessive gifts and financial support from her mother. They have their own dignity and they live more uprightly than anyone else.
What qualifications do they have to laugh at people in rural areas? As of now, when the army collects supplies, the first place they think of is rural areas besides big cities. And in the whole of China, compared with people in big cities, aren't most people who survived also from rural areas?
"I think the countryside is great!" At this moment, a woman who was also around 24 couldn't help but speak up. "My family is from the countryside too. Before the apocalypse, we had four three-story Western-style houses connected together and a yard. My dad even built a small swimming pool in the backyard, following others' lead. In the winter, when it freezes over, we can skate on it."
"Yao Lulu, you are too much. Your family runs a farm stay." A handsome boy in his twenties next to her couldn't help laughing.
"But I was born in the countryside, and besides..." Yao Lulu, the dark-skinned girl, whispered, "Don't city people go to the countryside for fun these days? They even go to ancient towns. Those strawberries, dragon fruits, oranges, and other things are all grown by people in the countryside, and people from the city drive all the way here to pick them!"
"I say, it's not the end of the world anymore, can you not say anything about these fruits?" The man next to her was obviously greedy.
Yao Lulu glared at him directly. When she saw that the tall girl Yun Qiao had a bad look on her face, she turned and pulled her boyfriend's hand tightly. Then the two of them stopped talking.
It is obvious that this girl named Yao Lulu should be in the same team as Yun Qiao.
The entire team fell silent again in an instant.
They did not rest because the terrain here had completely changed. There was vegetation everywhere and there were so many people. Bai Ling just followed the main group.
