Whenever someone expressed to Qin Suyun that they liked her dog and thought it was particularly good, Qin Suyun would always feel involuntarily in a good mood, and the smile on her face would become more and more sincere.
Praising Dahei, Xiaoqi and the others is like praising Qin Suyun's own children. How could she, as a mother, be unhappy?
Qin Suyun looked at Pang Xiong and nodded with a smile, her voice becoming a little gentler. "Yes, Mr. Pang is quite accurate... Our dogs, except for Dahei, are all under a year old. But they are very smart and obedient, much more clever than the average sheepdog. Before the mutation, their IQ was comparable to that of a four or five-year-old child. Now, after the mutation, I find that they seem to have become even smarter than before and can understand all my instructions."
Qin Suyun said this to introduce Dahei and the others to Pang Xiong and the others, and also to link the reason why Dahei and Xiaoqi were so smart to the reason for their mutation last night, and to find a reliable reason for Dahei and the others' specialness.
In fact, even before their mutation, Xiaoqi and the others had intelligence comparable to that of teenagers, especially Dahei and Heidou. Qin Suyun felt they weren't much behind her. Especially Zhazha, whose mastery of several different biological languages was something even she couldn't achieve.
"No wonder your dogs look so special. I felt they were different from other dogs the first time I saw them!!" Pang Xiong's eyes lit up, and he couldn't wait to go forward and touch Xiao Qi and the others.
With this in mind, Pang Xiong asked. He looked at Qin Suyun with sparkling eyes, like a child who had received a new toy, full of anticipation. "Miss Qin, can I pet your dog? I promise I won't hurt them!"
"As long as they are willing, they can do it anytime." Qin Suyun said with a smile. She has never interfered with Dahei and his friends' circle. No matter who they want to get along with, it is their own choice, and she will not force them.
"Miss Qin, you are such a nice person!" Pang Xiong's eyes lit up. He was about to go forward and shake hands with the landlord, but suddenly, he felt a chill on his neck. The animal instinct made him subconsciously shrink his neck. The hand that was originally stretched out to shake hands with Qin Suyun turned around and touched Xiaoqi's head next to him.
Xiao Qi: “Woof woof woof???!!!” You two-legged beast, did I allow you to touch me? !
What are you touching?! Release your claws!
Uh-huh... A little lower, a little lower, a little lower, yes, yes, right here, wuwuwu, so comfortable! ——
Xiaoqi: I didn’t expect that this biped’s fur-stroking skills are quite good. I can look for him again next time.
So, in just two minutes, Qin Suyun saw that her originally serious and solemn Xiaoqi fell to the ground after being touched by Pang Xiong, revealing his yellow belly. She withdrew her hand that was suspended in the air with some embarrassment. She thought Pang Xiong wanted to shake hands with her just now, but it turned out that she was overthinking it. Pang Xiong just wanted to get close to her dog.
He Zhennan retracted his sharp gaze and nodded with satisfaction when he saw that Pang Xiong was playing with the dog.
He Zhennan glanced around and saw the fatigue on the faces of the others. "It's getting late, everyone should go back and rest. It's already past two in the morning, and we can still rest for a few hours and get some more sleep. We have already discussed with the village chief that tomorrow we will help the villagers clean up this part of the village and clear away all the weeds and shrubs. This is physical work, so we need to rest well. Everyone go back to sleep."
"Okay, then Captain He, you should go back and rest early." Lu Liqing rubbed her swollen and painful temples. She was old and in poor health, so she really needed to rest early.
I don’t know if Qiu Jiayue upstairs has dealt with her mood now.
"Mom, let me help you..." Dongzi saw his mother's tired look and hurried forward to support her. It was indeed time to go to bed at this late hour.
"Huh..." Seeing his boss's back going upstairs, Pang Xiong raised his head and wiped the sweat from his forehead. He slowly breathed a sigh of relief and looked at He Zhennan who was talking to Qin Suyun at the moment with a meaningful look in his eyes.
…………
In the room on the second floor, Qiu Jiayue sat on the bed, blowing her hair and wiping her tears, her eyes red.
"Mom and Dad, can we move? I don't want to live here anymore... This family is such a bully!" Qiu Jiayue tugged at her parents' sleeves, her face full of anticipation. "Let's move out tomorrow and ask the village chief to find us another family. At worst, we can always build our own house... Isn't that right, Awen?"
After saying this, Qiu Jiayue looked at her boyfriend with eager eyes.
"This..." Mother Qiu was a little embarrassed. When they came to Wanxi Village last night, although it was late at night, they had seen many villages during the day along the way. There were very few houses in those villages that looked habitable.
Even if Wanxi Village was slightly better than the other villages, there probably weren't many habitable houses. At this point, who would bother to be picky? Just do whatever you want.
"Jiayue, we don't know the specific conditions of this village. Why don't we wait until we take a look around the village during the day before we decide?" Mother Qiu patted the back of Qiu Jiayue's hand and said soothingly, "Besides, this house looks pretty good to me. At least it has electricity. When we lived in the villa area before, we had to rely on simple torches and candles for lighting every night. This place is actually not that bad..."
"Mom! Is this about the lights, candles, and torches?! This is about that woman bullying your daughter! That woman just doesn't like us, so she bullies me like this!" Qiu Jiayue said sharply, "If we continue to live in her house, who knows how she's laughing at us in her heart! Do you want to be laughed at by her from the bottom of your heart too? We are grown-ups, do we still have any respect left?"
"Is face really that important?" Mother Qiu sighed, looked at her daughter and said, "Since the earthquake, it's been hard for everyone to survive, so how can we talk about face? Besides, I don't think Miss Qin is deliberately bullying you as you say. We have come all the way from Henghua City to settle down here, it's not easy. Jiayue, don't be willful!"
Even though Mother Qiu loves her daughter and favors her, she still maintains her own principles in many things. She is not the kind of mother who does whatever her daughter says. For example, now, Mother Qiu is considering the family's future livelihood.
It's not like she hadn't lived in a rural house before. Even before she arrived, she knew Wanxi Village was the poorest of the small mountain villages in Yunhai City. Although Mother Qiu didn't quite understand why her future son-in-law wanted to come here, she knew that since it was the poorest mountain village, there were definitely many houses in the village that were worse than this one.
The most important thing is that Qiu's mother has now noticed the power problem in the house, just like Lu Liqing did before.
The discovery and widespread application of electricity is a major leap in the history of human progress. After the disaster, large-scale power outages caused a significant decline in the quality of life of the Qiu family. The family of three finally adapted to life without electricity. Now they can live with a family who still has electricity at home. Qiu's mother feels that even if they have to suffer a little on weekdays, it doesn't matter. At least it is convenient!
What's more, my daughter should change her temper.
"Dad! Look at Mom, how was I willful? Aren't they bullying us? Even if what I did before was wrong, this woman obviously had cats and dogs at home mutated to such a big size, but she didn't warn us in advance. Wasn't she just waiting to laugh at me?!" Qiu Jiayue was scared half to death by the two dogs. She was still brooding over it. If she continued to live here in the future, where would she put her face?
Cui Wen was so confused after listening to his girlfriend's words that he had no idea what excuse to use to convince her.
It is said that the environment can change a person. Cui Wen never expected that his girlfriend, who was just a little bit spoiled but very sensible and considerate, would become like this now.
No matter how much Qiu's parents and Cui Wen tried to persuade her, Qiu Jiayue always found a reason to move out. In the end, she even stopped trying to find excuses and simply insisted on moving out, unwilling to live under someone else's roof.
Cui Wen rubbed his temples because he had a headache.
The Cui family and the Qiu family have been neighbors since childhood and have a very good relationship. Cui Wen and Qiu Jiayue are also childhood sweethearts. They went to school together since childhood and only separated after graduating from high school and entering different universities.
Later, Cui's parents died in a car accident. The Qiu family took good care of him, and he and Qiu Jiayue became a couple.
After this natural disaster, Cui Wen's first thoughts were of the Qiu family. He and Qiu Jiayue were already of marriageable age and had originally agreed to get married earlier this year, but the natural disaster had unexpectedly delayed their plans. Even if they hadn't married, Cui Wen had already considered the Qiu family his own family.
Whether or not to get married was just a matter of a piece of paper, but now...
Cui Wencai realized that there were still many things he didn't understand about his girlfriend.
"Forget it, if you want to move, then move... but at least we have to live here for a while. We have to wait until we are sure that the village is safe before we find another place to live." Cui Wen sighed and finally had to give in to his girlfriend.
"It's too dangerous outside now. There are too many mutant animals everywhere." Cui Wen frowned as he looked out the glass window and saw various flying insects that had grown noticeably larger due to being attracted by the lights.
These insects, like the previous mutated spiders, have changed due to last night's heavy rain and are now much larger than before.
Fortunately, these insects are not as exaggeratedly large as those mutant spiders. The largest moth that relies on the light source in the house to find its way here is only the size of a palm. It looks a bit scary at first glance, but it is still very easy for people to deal with it.
