Every day at mealtime, the Dao family would send someone up to serve Grandma Fang food and drink. After seven or eight days of care, Grandma Fang was able to sit up by herself.
The people who come up from the Dao family every day are different. An Jingzhi probably guessed what the Dao family is thinking, that they are all here to get some free heating.
But he didn't deliberately linger and refuse to leave. After serving Grandma Fang, he left the rent for the An family and left.
At first, the people in the building didn’t know that Grandma Fang had gone to the An family. By the time they found out, Grandma Fang had already lived there for several days.
A group of people were whispering behind his back, sometimes cursing the An family, sometimes cursing the Dao family. As long as they didn't come near him, An Jingzhi didn't bother to care.
…
After staying for half a month, Grandma Fang's body had recovered. She was supposed to pass away a few days ago, but Grandpa Dao personally forced her to stay for a few more days, under the pretext of strengthening her body and replenishing her vital energy.
"Thank you for taking care of me during this period. I, an old woman, have finally saved my life." Grandma Fang said with emotion. Who would want to die when they can live?
"Grandma Fang, why don't you stay for a while longer? Although you are well now, you can't stay there for two days. You might get sick again." Xin Ruoyao said.
"No, no, how can I bother you every day? If I really get sick again, it's my fate as an old woman. It's what I deserve."
During this period, she saw clearly that the An family also ate potatoes, sweet potatoes, compressed biscuits, porridge and other things.
The freshest ones are the vegetables they grow themselves.
But it is impossible to have such a good complexion by eating those things.
She also knew that she was living in someone else's house and must have disturbed them.
There wasn't much food at home to begin with, and because she had consumed quite a bit of it, Grandma Fang refused to leave any food behind.
The other party had already made up his mind to leave, so Xin Ruoyao didn't know what to say. She just told her to keep warm.
The temperature outside has dropped to minus 45 degrees Celsius now.
After Grandma Fang left the house and there were no outsiders around, they returned to their previous diet.
During this period, because Grandma Fang was at home, they ate light meals. The only meat they had was the fish sent by the Dao family. Even their physical exercise was reduced.
The little bit I eat is not enough to support high-intensity exercise.
On the table were tomato beef brisket, stewed chicken with potatoes, braised tofu, and a bowl of seaweed soup.
The whole family ate without even raising their heads, they were just busy eating rice and vegetables.
Seeing that the food on the table was almost gone, everyone smiled at each other after eating to their satisfaction.
Wiping his mouth, Tang Dan said, "We've only been enduring this for half a month, while those people out there have been enduring it for half a year."
"We can have the good life we have now, thanks to Ruoyao." Old man An said with a smile.
Xin Ruoyao smiled and said, "If Jingzhi hadn't prepared the supplies in advance, I wouldn't have had any use for the ring. And Mom and Dad, it's all thanks to you for helping us renovate our home. Otherwise, how could we have such a warm meal now?"
Back in the bedroom, Xin Ruoyao sat cross-legged on the bed and asked in a guiding tone: "When will the next disaster happen in your dream?"
"Half a year later, but that may not be accurate now. Originally, the heavy rain would occur in the second half of the year, and the extreme cold weather would not come so soon." An Jingzhi shook his head and said.
"Do you think we should make some weapons for self-defense?" she asked tentatively.
Ever since she knew that it was all a misunderstanding, Xin Ruoyao would restrain the violent side of her heart when facing An Jing.
After all, in her husband's eyes, she has always been a kind and gentle wife.
"We need to make some preparations." An Jingzhi nodded and said, "Let's use the cutter to cut some of the steel in your space and make machetes and long swords."
"If it's not sharp enough, sharpen it yourself."
"Before we just did some exercises to strengthen our bodies, but now it's time to change our approach."
"Ruoyao," An Jingzhi knew in his heart that the other party was afraid that he would be too soft-hearted.
"Things are different now. People are dying every day. We can only take care of our families first."
Xin Ruoyao felt relieved. Her husband saw things more clearly than she did and was stronger than she had imagined.
"Then let's get started."
The two men went to the living room and told their family about their plan, and the family began to help make weapons.
After more than ten days of busy work, including cutting and welding, fortunately An Jingzhi had done sufficient preparation and the weapon was finally completed.
The longest blade was as long as an arm, which looked a bit scary, and the shortest one was half an arm long. The handle was made of wood temporarily and was rather rough, but after being polished by Old Man An, it was sufficient for use.
I also made several handles out of wood to match the blade.
The rough version of the long sword is completed.
All that’s left is to sharpen the knife.
While sharpening their swords every day, they also did not forget to practice their methods of defending against enemies.
Everyone followed Xin Ruoyao to practice chopping movements. After leaving the original owner, Xin Ruoyao struggled alone in the apocalypse after the natural disaster for several years. She was originally a doctor, and she knew very well how to kill a person quickly.
"Ruoyao," Tang Dan panted during the break, "Where did you learn all this?"
Xin Ruoyao brought out the explanation she had prepared long ago: "Mom, I'm a doctor, right? Who knows better than a doctor where the human body is most vulnerable?"
Tang Dan thought about it and felt that it was true, but Xin Fenlan felt a little uneasy.
At night, she proposed to sleep with her daughter. Xin Ruoyao thought about it and knew the reason.
Before going to Xin Fenlan's room that night, she had wanted to comfort An Jingzhi, but he said directly, "Mom must be feeling uneasy too. You go and comfort her."
Xin Ruoyao's eyes sparkled as she stared at him intently: "Thank you."
