Chapter 213 Thank you, sister (+11)
As the siblings approached and observed, Gu Zijing's mental radar also detected them.
"There are two people on the mountain, one with a level one water-based ability and the other an ordinary person." Seeing no danger, Gu Zijing withdrew her mental energy.
Su Yimo stood by the oven, watching the sweet potatoes roast and warming herself by the fire: "There are still people in such a remote place? Didn't we pass by a mud house when we came here?"
"It seems so."
The group didn't pay any attention.
Before long, Uncle Chen and Liu Xiuping had prepared lunch in a few pots.
The large round table was laden with dishes.
A large bowl of grilled fish, a large bowl of shrimp and egg custard, a large pot of clam soup, stir-fried vegetables, a large bowl of spicy hot pot, and roasted sweet potatoes still warming in the oven.
Each portion was generous, and Ling Ran's portion was even served separately in a small bowl and placed in front of her.
This was Ling Ran's first time eating steamed egg custard. It was smooth and tender, with no eggy smell at all. Although it was light, it was still very appetizing.
The vegetables in the spicy stir-fry are prepared in a different way, spicy and numbing, crisp and refreshing. I haven't had grilled fish in a while, but the meat is still in good condition, and this fish has no bones, so the texture is great.
If you feel a bit greasy after eating, have a sip of vegetable and clam soup. The soup is fresh and delicious, and the clam meat is plump and fresh.
Ling Ran ate her meal with great satisfaction.
This is life.
She was so happy in this little world that she didn't want to go back to the cultivation world. After all, everyone here was talented, good-looking, and had pleasant voices; she really loved it here.
While eating, Gu Zijing put down her bowl and said to a patch of grass halfway up the mountain, "Come out."
After she finished speaking, there was no response. Gu Zijing repeated, "You two in the bushes, come out."
A moment later, two people emerged from behind the bushes.
The older sister held her younger brother's hand. Both of them were dressed in thin clothes, their lips were purple from the cold, and because they were so thin, their cheeks were sunken, making their eyes appear unusually large, just like African refugees in propaganda posters.
A gust of cold wind blew by, and the two of them shivered involuntarily.
The older sister glanced at Gu Zijing, then immediately lowered her eyes: "We were originally digging for wild vegetables on the mountain, we didn't mean to disturb you."
Where are your parents?
"have no idea."
I asked around and found out that the siblings' parents had been working away from home before the apocalypse, and their grandmother usually took care of them.
Grandma passed away just before the apocalypse. Her parents had said they would come back, but then the apocalypse broke out, leaving only the two siblings to depend on each other.
There are few people here, so there are also few zombies. The two zombie siblings in the factory know this and usually avoid them from a distance, so nothing happens to them.
They took a detour on their way back today, and even though they were quite far away and the zombies wouldn't have been able to spot them, Gu Zijing and the others still managed to find them.
Pei Yi glanced at Ling Ran, who continued eating intently.
He beckoned to the siblings: "Come here."
The siblings hesitated for a moment, then came down from the mountain to the factory gate. A large round table was set up outdoors, on which were many delicacies they could not eat before the apocalypse.
"Gurgle~"
My stomach was growling uncontrollably.
Shen Nianshen, who was standing to the side, understood and took out a bag of steamed buns from his spatial storage and handed them to them: "Eat up."
The little girl glanced at Shen Nianshen, then at the others at the table, and finally at Ling Ran, who wasn't curious about them and was eating slowly. She quickly pulled her younger brother and ran to Ling Ran, bowing to her: "Thank you for the buns, sister!"
Still holding the steamed bun, Chen Nianshen smiled helplessly: "I gave you the steamed bun! Why didn't you thank me?"
