The group of people simply stood around without any conflict; they were just curiously watching Bai Shuang and her group.
In the apocalypse, the fact that they can still fly planes speaks volumes about their identities.
Moreover, they hadn't seen such neatly dressed men and women in years.
Everyone was speculating: who exactly were these people?
Then, an unfamiliar military officer came forward and asked him questions. Lu Yu showed him his identification.
"Please have the soldiers from the Kyoto base come over."
Then a soldier quickly ran towards the Lu family's submarine room.
Not long after, the guards helped the frail, trembling old man out.
Lu Yu took Bai Shuang's hand and walked towards the old man. When they got closer, Bai Shuang could see clearly that this was indeed her grandfather.
He was an elder, and should have been sitting at home, waiting for Bai Shuang and the other person to come in and see him.
But in this lifetime, I almost never saw my children again!
As soon as I heard they were coming, I couldn't wait to come out and see them a few minutes earlier.
"grandfather!"
"Grandpa! What happened to you?"
Lu Yu stepped forward and hugged his grandfather. Bai Shuang had never seen Lu Yu shed tears before, but at this moment, he was in tears.
"Hey kid, I'm not dead, why are you crying?"
He spoke with a surprisingly strong voice, and Lu Yu stopped crying. The two of them then helped the old man into the house.
But after taking only a couple of steps, the old man shook off the two of them, saying that he could walk on his own.
Bai Shuang: "If you can walk, why did you have your guards help you just now?"
Don't try to put on a brave face in front of us.
When Bai Shuang helped him up, she checked his pulse. The old man was weak and malnourished, probably from hunger, but he didn't seem to have any serious illness.
"You brat, who's putting on a brave face?"
“I know, I know, it’s definitely not just forcing it, that’s ‘Fan’ (a person’s) nature.”
Lu Yu glanced helplessly at his wife, not knowing whether to laugh or cry, while the others secretly chuckled.
Does someone of Elder Lu's stature need to put on airs? He's clearly frail.
The old man was a proud man who didn't want the younger generation to see his weakness.
After they went inside, the group of people outside started whispering among themselves.
"Who was that just now? Old Master Lu actually came out to greet them personally."
"I heard them call the leader 'Grandpa,' it seemed like they were the leader's grandson and granddaughter-in-law."
"I heard from that person last time that the head and the base manager of the Huaxia base are apparently Chief Lu's grandson and granddaughter-in-law."
"So it was them!"
Everyone looked on with reverence.
"Are they going to take the commander away?"
"What will we do without our leader?"
"They only brought one plane, which couldn't fit all of us."
"They took Elder Lu away, and we rode in Elder Lu's house back to the Huaxia base."
"But that house can't fit all of us, can it?"
"Don't worry, Old Master Lu won't abandon us."
Perhaps we've brought a ship or something and are already on our way.
...
Bai Shuang took a look around the house and found it clean and tidy, but there wasn't much grain left in the storeroom.
"How long did you fly on the road?"
Bai Shuang: "I heard that you would starve to death in a few days, so we rushed over here in two days."
"Who starved to death? Who's spouting nonsense?"
Grandpa Lu looked at the group, his presence commanding respect without anger.
Commander of the Northeast Army... Sister-in-law, please don't involve me in your conversation. You may not be afraid of Elder Lu, but I am.
"Grandpa, we're all family, so there's no need to pretend."
I just saw that your warehouse is empty of grain.
"You brat, didn't you see? We have them in our field."
When will your grandfather ever starve to death?
The old man believed that being able to starve to death was a sign of weakness and shame.
But he didn't consider that in the wasteland, many things are beyond the control of ordinary people.
This also demonstrates his noble character in using his own food to help his compatriots.
And the spirit of wholeheartedly thinking of the Chinese people and disregarding one's own life and death.
"Alright, alright, Grandpa is invincible."
What kind of crops do you have in your fields?
Lu Yu: "Let's set off now."
There's still a lot going on at the Huaxia base; those few wolves are eyeing us covetously and could start a war at any moment.
Bai Shuang: "At least let them have a meal before they leave."
My main concern is that they'll be too hungry to walk.
Grandpa Lu glared at them: "What nonsense are you talking about?"
"Aren't we going to clean up? Aren't we going to harvest the crops in the fields? That's what everyone worked so hard to grow!"
Bai Shuang didn't see that they had much luggage; they packed it up in no time.
This old man is getting more and more fussy; he's probably developed a fondness for living here.
As for the crops, are you referring to the corn? With such thin stalks, how many kernels of corn can grow on them?
"Alright, since they worked so hard to grow it, let's harvest it. Even a mosquito's leg is meat."
Old Lu: "What mosquito legs? That's our food rations for the whole year."
If we don't come, you'll starve to death in a few days, and you'll lose your entire year's worth of food.
Lu Yu: "Then let's leave after we finish harvesting the crops tomorrow."
"Start making dinner now, and let the others start packing."
Bai Shuang put the ingredients in the kitchen and added rice cereal, dehydrated vegetables, and salt to the stove.
He instructed the cook, "Make the vegetable porridge thick so that everyone can eat their fill."
If you've been hungry for a long time, you can't eat dry food all at once, or your stomach won't be able to handle it.
After doing all this, Bai Shuang gave Old Lu a cup of spiritual spring water and a bowl of congee with preserved egg and lean pork, then turned and walked out.
She's going to see her child on the plane.
Old Lu: Where are you going?
"Go to the plane."
