Chapter 367: Heartfelt Words
The big goose smelled a familiar scent and stopped roosting. It stood up and clucked at Chen Yanming, and the sound was so loud that it almost woke up the people who were resting not far away.
Chen Yanming patted the goose on the head and taught him a lesson: "Why are you arguing? You won't have a chance to argue again! Don't you know that things that have just been taken off the fire are very hot? Be careful not to burn your tongue."
Then he stretched out his hand and said, "Wife, hand me the goose's rice bowl."
Bi Qiaoan took out the goose's rice bowl from the space, Shen Yanming took it and put it on the ground, then scooped a spoonful of soup into it and reminded: "Wait until it cools down before drinking."
The goose nodded, quacked twice, and then took two steps back, far away from the food bowl. It had heard it, and if it drank from it now, its tongue would fall off.
Shen Yanming and Bi Qiaoan were both amused. Then they took out all the bowls and chopsticks from the storage box and poured out the mung bean soup to dry.
Before they woke up, Shen Yanming got up and walked to Li Gangtie, whispering something to him.
Li Gangtie smiled and nodded, "You are thoughtful."
"We have to perform well to impress my wife!" Shen Yanming said and left. He was going back to continue accompanying his wife.
Zhou Qi was a little curious when Shen Yanming left for the first time, but because it was free time, he had no right to ask what others wanted to do. But now, his curiosity was a little bit unbearable.
He walked over to Li Gangtie and asked in a low voice: "What's the situation with that guy?"
Li Gangtie did not hide anything and told him about his wife who came with him despite being pregnant. He then concluded, "The young couple is very thoughtful. They made mung bean soup for everyone. When they wake up, let them all drink a bowl of it. It can help clear away heat and detoxify and prevent heat stroke."
Zhou Qi nodded, "Yes, this couple is much better than that couple!"
Li Gangtie knew who Zhou Qi was talking about, because Tong Xianbao had tried to slack off several times while they were working, and after dinner, no one knew where he had gone.
As for Lu Nanfang, the people who monitored her said that after taking a stroll, she went to chat with local residents in Su City.
Both of them were a little confused and didn't know what the young couple wanted to do. Were they just trying to understand the living conditions of the people in the disaster area?
Forget it, just wait a little longer, the fox's tail will be revealed one day.
"Well, I'll go have a bowl of mung bean soup first." It would have been fine if Zhou Qi didn't know this, but after he knew this, he felt his mouth was dry and he urgently wanted to drink something to replenish his water.
Seeing that Zhou Qi had stood up and walked forward, Li Gangtie quickly patted the dirt off his butt and whispered, "Wait for me, I'll go with you!"
"Then hurry up, otherwise they will wake up and have to snatch it from us!"
"Don't worry, even if Comrade Xiao Shen is missing someone, we can't be missing. Don't forget, I still have the assessment results of the couple in my hands."
"Bah, you shameless bastard, if you don't want such a good newcomer, our Su City Guards will welcome him very much. I'll go talk to them right away."
"Hey, who said I don't want it? I was just joking. With just 200 contribution points, how dare I let them fail the assessment?"
"Even if you don't want to let them pass, you can't. It's only the first day and they've already started to win people's hearts. By the end, it might be passed unanimously."
Li Gangtie's face darkened when he heard this. "It's not a good thing if they do this every day. It will make people's appetites bigger. They won't be able to stop even if they want to. Do you believe it?"
"Of course I know this. Just like this rescue, even for the disaster victims, the guards don't pamper them. If they want to eat and drink, they have to work. No one is obligated to support you unconditionally, especially in the end times when natural disasters and man-made disasters are constantly happening."
"Well, that's how it should be. No one's food is blown back by the wind. The environment will only get worse and worse in the future. Only people with value will be qualified to survive." Although Li Gangtie's words were unpleasant to hear, they were indeed true.
The Qinghe Alliance always pays special attention to talents, especially after the abnormal climate. Top experts and scholars in various fields have been taken to the secret base by the guard team and are being provided with the best conditions, but ordinary people know nothing about it.
And Li Gangtie happened to be one of the insiders, because he was the one who escorted the scientific research tycoon, traditional Chinese medicine genius, mechanical master, and surgical expert in Hai City.
"Okay, they mean well. Don't give the couple the cold shoulder. When you get there, explain the interests involved to them. They're not stupid and will definitely listen to you," Zhou Qi consoled.
"Okay, I understand." Li Gangtie nodded and strode forward.
Here, Shen Yanming was talking to Bi Qiaoan when he saw two strong men coming over.
"Captain Li, Captain Zhou, we don't have any stools here, I can't even say please sit down." Shen Yanming said with a smile.
When Bi Qiaoan saw the guests coming, he prepared to get up and leave the tent to say hello.
As soon as Li Gangtie saw her movements, he knew what she wanted to do and quickly stopped her, "Don't move, just lie down, we are just here to drink a bowl of mung bean soup."
After saying that, he sat down on the ground, and Zhou Qi did the same. Seeing this, Shen Yanming quickly brought a bowl of mung bean soup to each of them.
"Captain Li, Captain Zhou, hello! I'm not feeling well, so I can only say hello to you two like this." Bi Qiaoan said with a smile.
"It's okay. It's a special situation and I can understand it. In fact, it was also the result of the guard team's lack of consideration. They only talked about the assessment but did not take the woman's pregnancy period into consideration. This was a mistake in our work." Zhou Qi nodded and apologized to Bi Qiaoan.
"This is normal. After all, most of the guards in the escort team are men. You rarely come into contact with women's physiological issues, so it's not surprising that you haven't considered pregnancy.
Besides, our Captain Li has also made special arrangements, otherwise how could I lie here so comfortably and chat with you two!"
"Your little chatterbox makes us feel comfortable." Li Gangtie said with a smile.
Then he blew on the mung bean soup in his hand and felt that it was not so hot anymore, so he took a sip. "Oh, it tastes good. There is a sweet taste in it that makes me linger."
Shen Yanming thought: "Sweet? Could it be that too much spiritual spring water was added?"
Then he nodded, "Yeah, with a little honey."
Li Gangtie's smiling face darkened, leaving Shen Yanming confused. "What's wrong? Are you allergic to honey?"
Li Gangtie shook his head. "Xiao Shen, you are still young and don't understand how evil people are. I know you have good intentions, but have you ever thought about it? You have made their appetites bigger. What will you do if they become more demanding in the future?"
