Chapter 203: RV in Hand
Xia Xiaoman heard the noise and ran to the second-floor balcony, followed closely by Maodan.
Outside the fence, a dark figure turned his back to Xia Xiaoman and gestured towards the intersection. And at the intersection, there was a motorhome.
This RV is not quite what Xia Xiaoman had imagined. Overall, it is similar to a heavy truck. There is not much decoration on the outside. It is just a simple square box with a few glass windows on it.
Just looking at the appearance, Xia Xiaoman was already very satisfied. This was much better than those flashy RVs with balconies.
When Maodan saw such a huge creature approaching, his hair stood up nervously and he kept arching his back and baring his teeth at the RV.
Xia Xiaoman looked down and said with a smile, "Don't be afraid, Maodan. That's the RV that your aunt Sun Qing got."
"Oh?" Maodan raised his head and looked at her with a pair of yellow-orange eyes: What is a RV? Can it be eaten?
Xia Xiaoman bent down, picked it up, and carried it back to the first floor. "You stay here and don't destroy the house. If I find you destroying the house, don't even think about eating rabbit meat tonight." After saying that, Xia Xiaoman put on his coat and climbed over the wall to go out.
“Is this the RV we’re exchanging for?”
Sun Qing heard Xia Xiaoman's voice, looked back and said, "Well, don't look at this RV's small size, it has another floor, and when the upper floor is raised, it can accommodate three or four people."
"The first floor has a bathroom, oven, gas stove, refrigerator, sofa and coffee table. There is also a rain shelter hidden on the side. When it is opened, it is as big as a small living room. It is very convenient for outdoor camping."
"Does it consume a lot of fuel?" Xia Xiaoman asked.
"A 6-cylinder 8.7L diesel engine will definitely consume a lot of fuel. All RVs are like this. If you want to save fuel, the only way is to drive a car."
As they were talking, the car was already in sight. Sun Qing took Xia Xiaoman over to inspect the goods.
Just now I was on the second floor and didn’t realize how big the RV was from a distance. Now that I’m closer, I find that the wheels are almost taller than me. If I want to get into the car, I have to climb the stairs.
The exterior of the RV is low-key gray, and the interior decoration is mostly gray. But perhaps because of the bright lights, even though it is all gray, it does not look dull, but makes people feel high-end.
The first floor of the carriage is equipped with two 360° optional independent seats, with leg rests and massage functions. After being laid flat, it can also be used as a small bed.
Most of the daily appliances are available, including refrigerator, wine cabinet, sink, microwave, electric oven, etc. There is also a private bathroom, integrated solid wood electric floor heating, and in-car wood heating and air conditioning.
"All electrical appliances in the car can be controlled intelligently, but unfortunately there is no Internet and no mobile phones now, so this intelligent control can only be used as a decoration." As she spoke, Sun Qing pressed a button, and Xia Xiaoman immediately heard something slowly rising.
"Here are the stairs to the second floor. Be careful, the stairs are a bit narrow."
Xia Xiaoman followed Sun Qing up to the second floor. The second floor surprised her more than the first floor. There was a double bed and a three-seater sofa. There was a blanket in front of the sofa, and a small coffee table was placed on the blanket. Opposite the sofa was a 50-inch projection screen.
This relaxing and comfortable environment is just like a family bedroom before a natural disaster.
Because the roof was raised a certain height, Xia Xiaoman could walk freely inside with her back straightened. But for Sun Qing, who was 1.7 meters tall, this height was still a little short, and she had to bend over to walk.
"How about this car? Not bad, right?" Sun Qing said with some pride.
Xia Xiaoman didn't nod immediately, "Let me drive two laps first."
"Okay, drive carefully. Even though we have snow chains, it's still a little slippery."
Sun Qing threw the keys to Xia Xiaoman, and specifically asked the driver who had just driven over to teach Xia Xiaoman how to drive.
It was Xia Xiaoman's first time driving a motorhome. Sitting in the driver's seat, he instantly felt the wide field of vision, which was completely different from driving a car. Under the guidance of the driver, Xia Xiaoman drove the motorhome around twice. When he felt that there was nothing wrong with the car, he returned to the house and handed the prepared gun to Sun Qing.
When Sun Qing was taking the gun, she saw Maodan standing at the door and staring at her. She asked in surprise, "Is this the wolf cub I gave you a month ago?"
Xia Xiaoman hummed, "It's quite smart. After a few days of teaching, it can understand some basic instructions."
"You know how to take care of it. The one it was born with died before it was even a month old. The mother wolf was so upset that she didn't eat for several days."
Xia Xiaoman felt a little sorry when she heard this. This wolf was quite intelligent. If it was raised well, it might really be a great help. But raising one wolf was already difficult enough for her, and she didn't have the energy to raise a second one.
"Okay, I won't talk to you anymore. I'll go back first while it's still early. I probably won't come to the floating city during this period. You should be careful. I hope we will have a chance to meet again."
Sun Qing came here specifically to buy a gun. Now that she had bought the gun, she did not stay any longer and drove her snowmobile back to Yuancheng with her little brother.
Xia Xiaoman waited until Sun Qing and the others were far away, drove the RV to an empty place, put it away, took out the snowmobile, and drove it home.
RVs are too conspicuous, and their sudden disappearance can easily arouse suspicion. But snowmobiles are different, they are small and can be folded up in any corner.
After returning home, Xia Xiaoman climbed over the wall into the yard. Before he got close to the gate, he heard the sound of Maodan scratching the door with his claws.
It was the first time that Xia Xiaoman was separated from Maodan for such a long time. As soon as she opened the door, Maodan rushed to her impatiently and kept scratching her calves with his claws.
"Awoo~Awoo~" Shit shoveler, where have you been? Do you want to leave your eggs behind?
Maodan always sticks to Xia Xiaoman. No matter where Xia Xiaoman goes, it always follows Xia Xiaoman's feet.
After accidentally kicking Maodan for the Nth time, Xia Xiaoman stopped helplessly, squatted down and pinched Maodan's ear, "Maodan, be obedient and stop walking close to my feet. If you are obedient, I will take you with me when I go out in the future."
After repeating it two or three times, Maodan finally understood what Xia Xiaoman meant. He stopped sticking to her and turned around to finish running up the stairs he had not finished today.
At seven o'clock in the evening, Xia Xiaoman stopped his smooth movements and went to the basement to catch a rabbit.
Maodan saw the rabbit and excitedly followed Xia Xiaoman, jumping up and down, wanting to jump up and bite the rabbit. Unfortunately, he was too short and couldn't reach the rabbit's tail even if he tried his best.
When Xia Xiaoman was killing the rabbit, Maodan was staring at her intently, his saliva almost flowing out of his mouth.
Seeing its greedy look, Xia Xiaoman laughed and scolded it angrily: "It's not like I won't give it to you. Why are you still so greedy after eating rabbit meat every day?"
When she was alone, she only ate rabbits every few days, and she couldn't finish all the rabbits at home. Since she started raising hair eggs, the number of rabbits has dropped sharply, and now there are only 29 rabbits left in the basement.
After a while, when Maodan's appetite grows bigger, I'm afraid these 29 rabbits will not be enough for him to satisfy his hunger.
After dinner, Maodan took the nest to the kang, curled up and lay down on it to sleep. Seeing this, Xia Xiaoman turned off the lights and fell asleep.
After sleeping for an unknown amount of time, Xia Xiaoman was awakened by a wolf howling. She opened her eyes abruptly, picked up the flashlight beside her pillow and turned it on, "Maodan, what's wrong? Why are you howling so late at night?"
