Chapter 7



The man is very well behaved and has a good understanding ability.

Even though Lin Luo could clearly feel that he was startled when he turned on the hair dryer, the man did not leave his seat. Instead, he remained motionless, stiff as a stone.

There were spare razors belonging to Lin's father in the old house. Lin Luo collected all these things in one place, so it was easy to find them when he was looking for them.

"I'm going to hang your beard off. Don't move, or I'll hurt you."

Seeing that the man's eyes were always on the thing in his hand, Lin Luo comforted him. Sure enough, after she finished speaking, his eyes looked straight ahead.

With his hands placed obediently on his legs and his upright sitting posture, he looked just like... an elementary school student.

Lin Luo suppressed his laughter and first took a rubber band to tie up his almost dry semi-long hair at the back to avoid it from getting in the way later.

His hair was very hard, and when Lin Luo's fingers touched the back of the man's neck, he seemed to be able to feel the discomfort of that piece of skin.

"Luo, Luo Luo."

The man didn't know what was wrong with him, nor did he know what to say. He could only shout these two words helplessly.

"Yeah, I'm here."

Lin Luo responded, picked up the razor beside him after tying his hair, and looked at the face in front of him intently.

She had never used this thing before, but she had a strong ability to control her body. As the messy beard fell down bit by bit, the man's face gradually became clear.

He has sharp eyebrows, bright eyes and a high nose bridge.

The man had light-colored thin lips tightly pursed, and he looked very handsome but also very difficult to mess with.

But a man with such appearance has a pair of eyes as clear as morning dew, which dilutes the coldness in his appearance a little.

"call--"

When Lin Luo was finishing, he subconsciously blew a breath to blow away some of the tiny whiskers that remained on the man's face.

"Okay, you can move now."

The man blinked and called out "Lolo" again.

There was no meaning, nor was there anything he wanted to do to Lin Luo. It seemed as if he just wanted to use these two words to give himself confidence.

Lin Luo responded very seriously, "By the way," she seemed to have just remembered, "Do you have a name?" She couldn't just shout "Hello".

"Name..." The man repeated the two words and blinked quickly again, as if he was thinking or recalling.

"Yun, Yunshu." He nodded. "My name."

Lin Luo paused and subconsciously looked at a painting hanging behind the sofa in the living room.

It was written by Grandpa Luo himself and is also his favorite.

There are two lines of poetry above.

Unperturbed by praise or criticism, I leisurely watch the flowers bloom and fall in the courtyard;

I have no intention of staying or leaving, just following the clouds in the sky. (Note 1)

When Lin Luo heard the word "Yun Shu", he knew who gave him the name.

"...It's a very nice name." Lin Luo didn't know why his grandfather was willing to give him this name but didn't bring him back.

I don’t know what happened to Yunshu in my previous life because I never returned to Zhoujiawu.

But since the two of them met in this life, she would always cherish this fate.

"You must be hungry. I'll get you something to eat."

As for getting something to eat, it can only fill your stomach.

Lin Luo's cooking skills are really average. After the apocalypse, they just eat whatever is available. Before the apocalypse, Lin Luo's family mainly relied on Lin's father to cook. Lin's mother and Lin Luo have no talent in cooking.

Lin's mother was okay, at least she could cook a few dishes, and adding salt made them tasty, but Lin Luo...

She can cook dumplings, instant noodles, and steam buns...

It sounds like there are a lot of things to do, but in reality, Lin Luo only knows two: steaming and boiling, and he doesn’t need to season the food himself.

The kitchen of the new house is equipped with a full range of kitchen utensils, and the refrigerator also contains the frozen dumplings bought by Lin Luo and the sweet potatoes that Grandma Yao insisted on giving her.

Lin Luo naturally boiled water in a pot, and on the other side, he put the washed sweet potatoes into the steamer. Although he didn't know Yun Shu's appetite, he could tell from his body shape that he ate a lot.

Lin Luo directly poured a large bag of shepherd's purse and pork dumplings into the pot, and then stirred them to prevent them from sticking to the pan.

After the water boiled again, she added water and prepared the dipping sauce. She prepared a large bowl and a plate, planning to use half of the sauce and half of the dry sauce.

While Lin Luo was cooking, Yun Shu sat on the only small stool in the kitchen, her body motionless, only her eyes moving with Lin Luo's movements.

Occasionally, a hint of doubt and understanding would flash in his eyes, as if he was understanding the meaning of Lin Luo's actions.

"Can you use chopsticks?"

After putting the food on the table, Lin Luo suddenly thought of this question, and sure enough, he saw Yun Shu shaking his head honestly.

She was mentally prepared and first picked up her chopsticks to demonstrate to Yun Shu. She picked up a dumpling, put it in the dipping sauce, and then put it into her mouth.

The fresh fragrance of shepherd's purse and the aroma of pork filled his mouth at the same time. Lin Luo didn't have high requirements for this kind of machine-frozen dumplings. This was the brand his family had always eaten, and it was considered a good instant dumpling.

Yun Shu followed Lin Luo's example, picked up the chopsticks, held them tightly, and aimed at the dumplings on the plate.

Pick it up, dip it in the sauce, and put it in your mouth.

He also blew twice like Lin Luo did. The only difference was that Lin Luo needed to eat a dumpling in two bites, while Yun Shu only needed one.

After completing the set of movements, it was smooth and there was no mistake at all. It was impossible to tell that Yunshu was someone who didn't know how to use chopsticks.

Lin Luo was not too surprised by his outstanding learning ability. He just praised Yun Shu calmly, and received a smile from Yun Shu.

This was the first time Lin Luo saw him smile. He looked strangely familiar. Thinking carefully, wasn't this the way she smiled occasionally?

In the end, Lin Luo and Yun Shu finished off a bag of forty dumplings and four fist-sized sweet potatoes. In fact, most of them were eaten by Yun Shu.

Lin Luo felt full after eating only eight or nine dumplings and a sweet potato. He was quite impressed when he saw Yun Shu taking one bite after another and finishing all the food in the blink of an eye, not even leaving a drop of soup.

"Are you full?"

Yun Shu shook his head.

Lin Luo: "...If you want to be full, how many more dumplings can you eat?"

Yun Shu touched her stomach, glanced at the empty plate on the table, and thought for three seconds, "Three more plates of this."

A plate of about 20 dumplings, another 60? How did he survive in the mountains before?

"Half full." Yun Shu added the second half of the sentence.

Lin Luo: ...

She felt that having a basement was far from enough. With Yunshu's appetite, she would probably need several large warehouses.

I brought the person back myself, what else can I do?

You can only keep it.

But Lin Luo had never thought of raising a ancestor. It didn't matter if Yun Shu was not okay now, but he would definitely prove useful in the future.

For example, he is very strong, so he should be good at farming.

Because Yunshu has a strong learning ability, Lin Luo tested his literacy and found that his current literacy level is similar to that of an ordinary third-grade child, and he can recognize some basic words.

And he can also spell Chinese!

So I downloaded some common sense and word recognition videos from the Internet and let him learn on his own.

She had to go to town to pick up a bunch of express deliveries later.

"Okay, just watch the video and eat these when you're hungry. I'll be back in about two hours."

She couldn't bring Yun Shu to other people without any flaws yet. Only after her mental power reached level four could she use her mental power to influence other people's cognition without speaking.

By then, as long as she walks around the village, everyone will automatically and reasonably regard Yun Shu as Lin Luo's cousin - a relative on his father's side, and they will come to look after her because they are worried about Lin Luo.

That’s right, Yun Shu knew his own age, which was three years older than Lin Luo was now.

Although Yun Shu was indeed older in appearance, from his behavior, Lin Luo felt that he had just raised a younger brother.

"I understand, Lolo."

Fortunately, this "little brother" is very well-behaved, otherwise Lin Luoke would not have such good patience.

Lin Luo has driven the road between Zhoujiawu and the town countless times in the past few months and went directly to an express delivery store.

"Xiao Luo, here you are. Auntie has picked out all your packages. They are all in the pile." The courier glanced at Lin Luo with a smile, then turned around and continued chatting with the people next to her. "Young girls like online shopping nowadays. My daughter's shopping cart is full of things. She is just waiting for the Double 11 shopping festival."

Lin Luo thanked him and started moving things into the car. When the trunk was full, he put them on the back seat since there was no one else sitting there anyway.

After moving the goods, Lin Luo went to the town’s vegetable market again and bought some fresh vegetables and fruits.

Even if you don’t know how to make it, you have to practice, otherwise you can’t always eat frozen food.

Of course, have a few servings of frozen dumplings, buns, and glutinous rice balls, just in case.

He drove back satisfied only after the car was completely packed, even the passenger seat was not missing.

"Yun Shu, come and move the things."

After Lin Luo drove the car into the yard, he began to order Yun Shu around without any courtesy.

Yun Shu has long legs, big steps, and plenty of strength. He can carry three times the amount of things that Lin Luo takes one, and he can even carry more than Lin Luo.

The car was cleared in no time.

Lin Luo smiled and threw a candy to Yun Shu, "This is a reward for you."

She really likes this brand of milk candy. It has a strong milky flavor and is not sticky. It was a pity that she couldn't eat it for a long time after the apocalypse.

This time I bought two boxes online and kept them.

A pile of express deliveries was piled up in the living room. Lin Luo and Yun Shu each sat on a small stool and started to unpack the deliveries.

"Lolo, what is this?"

"Compressed biscuits, put them in the basement later."

"What about this?"

As they unpacked one piece at a time, Yun Shu tore off the outer black courier bag and took out a transparent bag and asked curiously.

There was a black mass inside.

Lin Luo knew what it was at a glance. God knows what she was thinking when she bought it.

"...Your underwear must be changed every day from now on. Remember to wash it yourself."
