Chapter 170 Qin Zhaoxian is dead!
Just then, the front door opened, and a figure rushed towards Mu Qingyu: "Sister! Xiao Mo said it was you who came back, and sure enough!"
Mu Qingrong was as happy as a child and came over to hug Mu Qingyu tightly.
"Let go quickly, I haven't even changed my clothes yet," Mu Qingyu said with a laugh. She was naturally very happy to see her younger brother.
After releasing Mu Qingyu with a grin, Mu Qingrong noticed that three more people had appeared in the courtyard.
"Who are they? No wonder Xiao Mo said that my sister didn't come back alone," Mu Qingrong asked curiously.
Before Mu Qingyu could answer, another clear voice intervened.
"Let's go inside and talk. It's all sand outside. Xiao Rong, are you really going to leave Sister Xiao Yu stuck at the door talking and eating sand?" The speaker was naturally Mo Huaiyu, who followed Mu Qingrong out.
Seeing that Mu Qingrong had blocked Mu Qingyu in the courtyard and insisted on talking and chatting amidst the sandstorm, Mo Huaiyu could only sigh helplessly.
Even Xiao Ai was peeking out of the doorway, looking at them and laughing.
Mu Qingyu chuckled, then immediately took Chen Zhuzhu's hand with one hand and beckoned Qian Zhong and Lao Ma into the house.
“Sister Xiaoyu, you’ve been gone for seven or eight days, but we haven’t been idle at home either. There have just been some changes in the village, and we wanted to tell you about them first.” Mo Huaiyu stood there and said to Mu Qingyu with a smile.
Mu Qingyu then noticed that Mo Huaiyu walked into the house on his own, instead of sitting in a wheelchair.
"Xiao Mo can walk on his own now?!" Mu Qingyu was clearly pleasantly surprised, looking Mo Huaiyu up and down.
Mu Qingyu had only ever seen Mo Huaiyu sitting in a wheelchair, but now that he was standing straight in front of her, she realized that this boy, who usually looked thin and small, was actually taller than Mu Qingrong when he stood up.
Mo Huaiyu nodded, feeling very happy. So when Mu Qingyu asked, he took a few steps to show her: "I can't run and jump like a normal person yet, nor can I trek for a long time, but I can walk normally every day."
"That's wonderful, we really need to thank Dr. Jingchen," Mu Qingyu said sincerely.
Mo Huaiyu nodded repeatedly with delight.
Seeing that Mo Huaiyu was taller than her younger brother, Mu Qingyu couldn't help but make a few sarcastic remarks to Mu Qingrong, who was furious—height is a man's dignity! How could his sister do this?
Seeing the harmonious scene at Mu Qingyu's home, Qian Zhong was stunned for a long time—he couldn't remember the last time he had seen such a scene.
This was common before the apocalypse, but after the apocalypse... no wonder Mu Qingyu was determined to go home. Qian Zhong thought that if he had family like that waiting for him, he would also risk his life to go home no matter what.
Shen Zhuzhu, on the other hand, looked around at the things and people with an innocent and naive expression.
Xiao Ai was quite happy to see the little girl, and without saying a word, she gave Chen Zhuzhu two lollipops and a piece of chocolate.
Chen Zhuzhu accepted it generously and said sweetly, "Thank you, sister."
Xiao Ai nodded and smiled kindly at Shen Zhuzhu, then busied herself preparing food for everyone, worried that Mu Qingyu, who had been away for seven or eight days, might be starving.
After playing around for a while, Mu Qingyu naturally sent her younger brother to run errands without any hesitation: "Xiao Rong, go next door and call Jing Chen or Han Yu over." She figured she could just leave Qian Zhong and Lao Ma to either of them for safekeeping.
Then he said to Mo Huaiyu, "Xiao Mo, go find Ji Qingqing and ask her to come over." Now that Mo Huaiyu's leg is healed, there's one more errand boy at home, which is great.
Mu Qingyu naturally wanted to talk to Ji Qingqing about whether she could adopt Shen Zhuzhu. If Ji Qingqing really refused, Mu Qingyu would think of another way.
To everyone's surprise, Mu Qingrong smugly pulled out a walkie-talkie and waved it in front of Mu Qingyu: "Why bother with all that errands? This is all you need."
Mu Qingrong grinned mischievously: "Sis, you didn't expect this, did you! While you were away, I didn't sit idle. I got a walkie-talkie for Brother Han Yu, Brother Jing Chen, and Sister Qingqing. The signal can penetrate walls within 500 meters."
The child is so proud, he's practically bursting with pride.
"Xiao Rong is really amazing!" Mu Qingyu never hesitated to praise her younger brother, and she could ignore his smugness.
Qian Zhong and Lao Ma were already amazed when they saw Mu Qingyu's house, which resembled a post-apocalyptic fortress. Now, seeing that Mu Qingrong had even taken out a walkie-talkie, they were even more astonished.
They were all incredibly curious about this place—but more importantly, living here seemed to give them a greater motivation and security to survive!
They had been following Mu Qingyu all this way, their future uncertain, so they couldn't be entirely without worry. But seeing the village, the houses, and the walkie-talkie, their anxieties gradually eased.
And from what Mu Qingyu and her brother said, they realized that they weren't just a few people; they seemed to be part of a team, and that the team included a very skilled doctor.
Qian Zhong felt more and more that he had made the right decision to come.
When Xiao Ai brought all the prepared food to the table, Qian Zhong and Lao Ma were completely dumbfounded! Even little Chen Zhuzhu couldn't help but swallow, her eyes filled with longing.
Steamed egg with minced meat, eggplant with garlic sauce, fresh stir-fried bean sprouts, and radish and pork rib soup!
What is this?! What are these things?! What kind of magical place is this?!
Of course, before the apocalypse, these were just ordinary home-cooked meals. But after the apocalypse, especially in cities, with power and gas supplies cut off, it became difficult for everyone to have a hot meal.
