Chapter 17: Moral Kidnapping of House Expansion



The towels were separate, and there was a special foot cloth. After washing them, I dragged the single mat to a place not far from the stove and got into the sleeping bag.

I've been chopping trees and bamboos today, and my arms are a little sore. I yawn and decide to go to bed first.

Because there were so many things, there was no place for her to sleep, and she could only barely squeeze in a single bed.

She'll consider expanding the house tomorrow.

After snuggling into the sleeping bag and falling asleep, the fruits hanging in the trading area were sold.

Obtain 6 pieces of glass and 60 pieces of stone.

At night, I don’t know if it was because I slept too deeply or the clouds didn’t come, but Anran slept until dawn and didn’t get up in the middle of the night to catch clouds.

It was around five in the morning, before daybreak, when Anran was awakened by the slight noises outside.

He slapped his cheeks, forced himself to wake up, and walked out the door with his weapon in hand.

Under the light, dozens of moths were flying in front of the plastic door, bringing out countless scales and powder on their wings, making the front of the door full of smoke.

An Ran accidentally took a mouthful of it and choked, coughing and crying. Her nose and tears started to run.

A group of moths discovered An Ran and gathered around her, flapping their wings to blow out more scales and powder.

Anran covered her mouth and nose, opened the door and went into the house, then quickly closed the door, but a few moths still followed her in.

The moth was too small for her weapon to hit, so An Ran picked up a piece of cotton from the ground and swatted the moth to death against the wall.

I took several sips of hot water to rinse my mouth before I could wash away the choking scales in my throat.

Wearing a hat and scarf, Anran rushed out with Yunmian in her hand, waving it in the air to chase the moths.

The level of moths is not high, they are all level one, and their attack is basically 3-5 points. The powerful one is the scale powder.

He covered his mouth and nose, and choked so much that tears came out of his eyes.

After finally killing them all, An Ran quickly washed her face and cleaned off all the scales on her body.

Only when the pain on my face subsided did I open the door and pick up the things dropped by the moths.

What can you give to such a small moth? Most of the things you give are scattered items.

Mostly seeds, followed by loose tablets.

Anran sorted them into categories and wrapped them in toilet paper. Before dawn, she returned to her sleeping bag.

The temperature at this time of day is the lowest and coldest of the day.

The wood in the stove was burned until only carbon was left. Anran stuffed another piece of wood in and let it burn slowly.

I got up at around eight o'clock, heated up the noodle dumpling soup from last night, ate it, and started working.

Yesterday we said we wanted to widen the house, but we still lack cotton.

I looked around the trading area and found things for sale that needed to be exchanged for food.

Three pieces of cloud cotton can be exchanged for half a pound of food. It’s a little scattered, but most of the time it’s at this price.

An Ran saw that she had a lot of food, but she still tried to bargain for the price. Unfortunately, she failed to get the price, so she could only spend one and a half kilograms of food to buy 9 pieces of Yunmian.

She spent 10 yuan on her own, which was enough to add a small 2*2 house in the front. After all, there was a wall that did not need cloud cotton.

But before that, she made a ladder out of wooden sticks, otherwise it would be difficult to get on the roof.

With the experience from the previous time, this time it was much faster. The front windows were not covered with plastic sheeting but glass.

The inner door was pried off and installed outside, adding another 4 square meters to the south side of the house based on the original foundation.

Her current house is 2*4.

She expanded the house to include the firewood pile, and is now considering whether to move it out.

After all, her house was already small enough, and there was no room for another pile of firewood.

The mess was left in the original house, and only the mattress and stove were moved out.

After all, the bedroom is facing the sun and is still warm.

After thinking about it, I decided to move it out. There are so many of them at home, and they take up too much space.

It doesn’t take much time to move it using the small cloud.

A large cloud floated over from a distance, drifting towards this side with the wind.

An Ran originally thought it was a cloud with supplies, but when it got closer, she found that it was a small cloud island.

There is a small cloud cotton hut on top, which also has a guardrail.

Thinking of what happened last time he encountered Yundao, An Ran silently gripped his weapon tightly, put on his hat and scarf, and prepared the hidden arrow on his wrist.

As a result, when the door of the hut opened, a haggard young woman walked out with a one-year-old child in her arms.

An Ran breathed a sigh of relief, but did not let go of the weapon in her hand.

The man who was stacking firewood stopped and looked at the woman warily.

But when the woman saw An Ran, her face lit up with joy and she walked a few steps to Yun Mian's side.

The two cloud islands gradually approached each other, and then stopped about a few meters apart.

The woman asked An Ran, "Little girl, do you have anything to eat?"

An Ran brought the machete to her, but didn't answer her. Instead, he asked her, "What do you want?"

The woman hesitated, seeming a little embarrassed. "I haven't been able to find any food recently, and the children and I have been hungry for several meals."

Anran suddenly realized that he came to ask for food.

"So what are you going to give me in exchange?"

The woman was stunned. Exchange? Why exchange? She and her child looked so pitiful, shouldn't it be given to her for free?

An Ran looked at her very seriously, with no intention of going in to get the food. Seeing that the woman was stunned, she asked again.

"What do you want in exchange?"

The woman opened her mouth with an incredible expression, "Can't you see I'm holding a child?"

An Ran nodded, "I saw it."

so what.

"This child hasn't eaten for several days. Can't you see he's starving?"

An Ran nodded again, "I saw it, so what?"

The woman didn't know whether she was pretending not to understand or really didn't understand, so she stopped beating around the bush with her.

"When ordinary people see such a pitiful and adorable child, shouldn't they give him something to eat? How can you bear to see him starve like this?"

An Ran looked at her strangely, "Is this child born to you and me? Did it come out of my belly?

Isn't it because of you, his mother, that he's pitiful? Stop trying to blackmail others with morality."

The woman's face turned blue and purple after she was rebuked by her, and her expression was very ugly. She looked at An Ran with eyes full of anger.

An Ran saw that she clearly wanted to get something for free, so she stopped talking and ignored her angry look.

But she didn't turn around, because she was afraid that she would attack her from behind. After all, she had a hidden arrow, and others could have it too.

The two of them had an awkward standoff. Seeing that An Ran refused to give in, the woman did not make any other move.

Suddenly, he raised his hand and pinched the child in his arms hard where Anran couldn't see.

The child was in pain and started crying as soon as he opened his mouth. His crying was not loud, but rather sobbing and seemed a little weak.

It looks like he has been hungry for several meals.

An Ran lowered her eyelids, which reminded her of the days when she was a child, her father worked overtime and her stepmother didn't give her food.

He sighed silently, turned around and walked into the house.
