Chapter 163 Dowry (2/2)



Bang, bang, bang! Three bangs, so fast that the old lady couldn't stop them in time.

What the old lady gave her was not just empty talk that the Sheng family is your mother's family, but real supplies that can help her live a good life in the end. Liao Qinglan is not a nanny who knows nothing. She is an knowledgeable and highly educated person. She knows the situation outside very well. Many wealthy families in the base may not be able to afford the supplies she has, and the space button is not something that ordinary people can have.

But she had one.

Su Yan gave it to her for the sake of the old leader and the old lady.

"Why are you bowing? This is not the old society. Put your things away and cook."

"Well! Let me thank Xiaoyan first."

Liao Qinglan sniffed and ran to find Su Yan.

Su Yan and the two kids were playing with toys and dogs in the newly built toy house.

"Xiaoyan, thank you!"

"You're welcome, Sister Qinglan. No, no, I should call you Aunt Qinglan. Uncle Xiao is a nice guy and handsome. He's the type of handsome uncle that many girls like. You have to grab him well~"

Liao Qinglan came over with red eyes and expressed her gratitude very seriously, but was amused by Su Yan's naughty words.

"Well, I won't let him get away."

Hehehe~

The two women laughed a silly laugh that only women can understand.

"I'll make lunch first!"

"Hurry up, hurry up, make two more specialties, otherwise I won't be able to enjoy your cooking in the future."

Liao Qinglan hugged the two little ones and kissed them a few times, then returned to the kitchen with a smile on her face.

Su Yan replied to Qin Yi's message on the bracelet. The man said that the love affair in Arshan had been arranged and he could be back before dinner.

"Xiao Rui, do you miss your dad?"

Xiao Rui tilted his head and thought about it. He seemed to have just remembered that he had a father. Then he shook his head and said, "No."

He is more familiar with Dahuang, Dahei and the three ferocious beasts than with his father.

"Mom, Xiaowei wants daddy, does daddy look good~"

What? You miss your dad but don't remember what he looks like? Qin Yi wondered how he felt when he knew his little cotton-padded jacket was so leaky.

"When dad comes back in the evening, you will know whether your dad is good-looking or not~"

"Hehe, mom is beautiful, I am the most beautiful!"

At such a young age, Xiaowei is only interested in good-looking people and animals.

Alas, what a face-chaser!

When Xiaorui next to him heard Xiaowei say that he was the most beautiful, the little boy rolled his eyes coolly and kept disassembling a small robot in his hands.

Looking at the two little ones, Su Yan felt a little headache.

During their childhood, the two little ones only had toys, dogs and wild animals as companions, apart from their family. They could forget about going to kindergarten or having playmates of the same age in recent years.

There were children of the same age in the base, and she was worried about them playing together.

Maybe she was thinking too much, her two children were also playmates.

After lunch, thinking about living in Beijing for a long time, Su Yan still had some things to pack up in the house in Jiangcheng and to say hello to her friends. She left the child with the old lady and bought a new flying vehicle.

Before entering Jiangcheng city, we changed the elevator. This time we didn't stop on the top floor of Building C, but downstairs.

Only a few days after leaving? The scenery when I returned to Lanjiang Terrace this time was different.

There was a tanker truck parked downstairs with two teams of people lined up next to the truck. They were carrying water back from outside and were distributing drinking water to the people in the base.

Although Su Yan had never received water from the base, she had seen it before. When people came to receive drinking water, there were crowds of people, but now, more than half of the people were gone.

There are also significantly fewer military personnel responsible for security.

There are not many people left living in Lanjiangtai, the Jiangcheng temporary base branch.

Su Yan moved the elevator farther away from the tanker before stopping.

Jiang Xu suddenly jumped out from nowhere and shouted, "Su Yan!"

"Jiang Xu." Su Yan pointed to the cabin door, motioning him to come up and talk.

Jiang Xu opened the door and jumped up.

"Are you getting water? It seems like there are fewer people."

"But there are a lot less. Originally there were two companies stationed here, and now there is only our company left. Due to the lack of water, most of the survivors have moved away. The water has been distributed, and these people are unwilling to leave without water. It's so hot here, and some of them may die of the heat soon."

Not having water to drink means death. Standing for a long time in extreme heat means death as well. Many people have died from the extreme heat at Lanjiangtai.

As Jiang Xu said, Su Yan had seen a lot in her previous life, so nothing was surprising.

"Where are they moving to?"

"Who knows? We, the grassroots soldiers, can't do anything about it."

“…”

Su Yan threw a bottle of mineral water to Jiang Xu. He unscrewed the lid and drank a few big gulps.

"It's been a long time since I drank such sweet water. Thank you."

"Don't be polite with me, drink it, there's more."

Jiang Xu giggled twice, revealing a mouthful of big white teeth.

The only white things on his body were his teeth, and his face looked like it hadn't been washed for a few days. His uniform and shoes were worn neatly, but it seemed like they hadn't been washed for a long time. Even if he closed his eyes, he wouldn't dare to say they were clean.

Jiang Xu is still considered lucky. Look at the people queuing up to get water over there, they all have disheveled hair and dirty faces.

"I have to drink sparingly. There is too little drinkable water now. There is almost no water on the ground. The wells we dug are almost to the center of the earth, but there is still not much water. The groundwater is also disappearing very quickly. The water level was quite high yesterday, but it may have sunk by half today. I really can't afford to live..."

If a large group of people hadn't gathered around the helicopter, Jiang Xu would have had a lot more to say.

"Su Yan, hurry up to the rooftop."
