Qin Feng took a big gulp of tea from his large tea mug and looked enviously in one direction of the village. "You know, these people don't leave the village often, so where do they get their information?"
Luo Hongxing thought for a moment, "Perhaps, there are people higher up?"
They've been neighbors for over a hundred years, everyone knows each other. If they really had connections, they wouldn't be staying in this run-down place.
Qin Feng shook his head. "There's no one like us, just an idle person like you and me."
Luo Hongxing didn't respond; he just listened, knowing full well the capabilities of the Qin family.
After chatting and laughing for a while, Qin Feng and Luo Hongxing went home separately. As soon as they arrived at their doorsteps, they heard the sounds of Qin Xiaoxiao and Qin Yue fighting.
"Qin Yue, don't go too far! Get this thing away from me, or you're not getting any... Ah, waaaah... Grandma, help me!"
In a moment of distraction, Qin Feng watched as Qin Xiaoxiao ran past him, disappearing in the blink of an eye.
Qin Feng was stunned for a moment, then looked up at Qin Yue, who was standing at the door looking at him guiltily.
"What did you do again? What happened to your sister...?"
Qin Feng, with his sharp eyes, noticed something dangling from Qin Yue's hand behind her back, so he narrowed his eyes and asked, "What's that thing you're holding? Show it to me."
Qin Yue quickly stepped back, "It's nothing, it's nothing. Grandpa, you must be exhausted. Go inside and rest. I'll go call my aunt back."
As soon as Qin Yue finished speaking, she tried to run to the backyard, but Qin Feng quickly grabbed her and stopped her. "Stop right there! What are you doing? What are you feeling guilty about? What are you holding? Give it to me."
Qin Feng turned sideways and pulled, and Qin Yue couldn't dodge in time. Qin Feng successfully pulled a... snake out of her hand.
The small, brown, patterned snake flicked its tongue and stared at Qin Feng with its sinister eyes.
Qin Feng wasn't afraid of snakes, especially since this snake wasn't poisonous, so he was even less afraid. But while he wasn't afraid, Qin Xiaoxiao was terrified of snakes.
Qin Feng knew without even thinking what good things Qin Yue had done.
Did you scare your sister with a snake?
Qin Yue pouted and said innocently, "I didn't expect her to be so afraid of snakes. We're both from the countryside, how could she be afraid of snakes?"
Qin Feng rubbed his forehead. "Your sister grew up in the city. Don't you know how much time she's spent in the countryside? She was terrified of snakes when she was little. She wouldn't even leave the house when she was at home. You know that."
She's so scared, and you still scare her? Has she lost all her conscience?
"How good is your sister to you? Since she came back, how many nice things has she bought you? Clothes, shoes, hair accessories, cookies, malted milk powder, and she even makes you delicious pastries and meat buns. Where can you find such a wonderful sister? Why did you have to scare her like that?"
Qin Yue stuck out her tongue. "I really didn't mean to. I was just thinking that I had finally managed to catch this meat myself, and I wanted to give it to my sister. That's why I put it in front of her. I didn't expect her to be so scared."
Recalling the scene when he saw Qin Xiaoxiao, Qin Feng felt a little worried.
His niece's face turned pale, she looked like a dead person, I hope she's alright.
Qin Feng glared at Qin Yue, annoyed. "You, you, you're just causing me trouble. Wait till your grandma gets back and finds out, she'll give you a piece of her mind."
Qin Feng walked away with his hands behind his back, hurrying to find Qin Xiaoxiao, afraid that she might be frightened and something might happen to her.
After Qin Feng left, Qin Ye came out of the house. Seeing that Qin Yue no longer had the snake, he pulled Su Yun out of the house as well.
Seeing that the snake in Qin Yue's hand was gone, Su Yun quickly looked around and asked, "Where's the snake?"
Qin Yue pouted, "My uncle confiscated it."
Su Yun breathed a sigh of relief. "It's alright, it's alright. Qin Ye, don't just stand there, go check on Xiao Xiao, don't frighten her anymore."
Qin Ye glared at Qin Yue, comforted Su Yun for a moment, and then quickly ran out with Qin Feng.
Su Yun couldn't help but chuckle when he saw Qin Yue standing listlessly in the courtyard.
"What, haven't you realized your mistake yet?"
Qin Yue shook her head and remained silent.
Su Yun smiled and stepped forward, taking Qin Yue's arm. "Don't you think about it? Your sister and I both grew up in the city and rarely see snakes. How could we not be afraid if we suddenly saw one? Besides, even kids from the countryside are afraid of snakes, right?"
You meant well, wanting your sister to eat meat with you, but you didn't realize she'd be so afraid of snakes, did you?
Qin Yue nodded. "I really didn't expect that. I didn't mean to scare her."
Su Yun patted Qin Yue's head, "I know you didn't do it on purpose, otherwise your grandpa would have spanked you. Even if your grandpa didn't want to, your older brother wouldn't have let you off the hook."
Children can be pampered, but not spoiled. If they are spoiled too much, they will become unruly children. If parents don't take care of them, it will be too late for society to do so.
In Qin Xiaoxiao's eyes, Qin Yue is a naughty child now. Although he is not as naughty or bad as the naughty children of later generations, he will not be far from that if he continues to develop.
When Qin Feng found Qin Xiaoxiao, she had already returned to the educated youth compound and was huddled in bed, shivering.
Qin Yue is on summer vacation, Qin Ming is busy signing up for the army, and Qin Hai and Sun Zhirou are busy with their work and Qin Ming's affairs, so they don't have much time to pay attention to Qin Yue.
So, when the holiday started, Qin Yue insisted on coming back. Qin Hai and Sun Zhirou were afraid that she would pester Qin Xiaoxiao again, so they didn't agree at first. But later, they were too busy to handle it, so they sent her back.
Qin Yue had just returned today when she started making a fuss about going up the mountain. Of course, Grandma Qin disagreed and didn't let her go.
But to everyone's surprise, although the girl wasn't released, she was really good at causing trouble. She caught a snake somewhere and kindly brought it home to let Qin Xiaoxiao taste snake soup.
So, just as Qin Xiaoxiao finished gossiping and returned from the field, she ran into Qin Yue, who was excitedly looking for her with a snake in her arms.
Then things spiraled out of control. Qin Xiaoxiao saw the snake and ran away, while Qin Yue chased after her, grabbing the snake from behind. The two ran home one after the other. Qin Xiaoxiao wanted to find Grandma Qin for help, but Grandma Qin had gone out to chat with her old friends and wasn't home.
Qin Aiguo always revolves around his wife; wherever his wife is, he is, so he is never home.
So Qin Xiaoxiao had nowhere to turn for help. She ran around the Qin family's courtyard seven or eight times, and finally ran into Qin's old lady's room, but she still couldn't escape Qin Yue's vicious hand. She was so frightened by Qin Yue that she closed her eyes and screamed. When she finally ran away, her hand still touched the snake's body. The sticky and cold touch almost drove Qin Xiaoxiao crazy.
Qin Feng looked at his trembling niece, then at the snake in his hand, shook his head and sighed, then walked away with his hands behind his back.
He figured his niece wasn't lucky enough, so he wouldn't pressure her anymore. He'd just make her some chicken soup to help her recover.
After everyone left, Qin Xiaoxiao closed the front door, locked the inner door, and turned to enter her spatial dimension.
After drinking two large bowls of hot water and calming down for more than half an hour, Qin Xiaoxiao finally slowly emerged from her tension and unease.
Although she experienced the apocalypse, she didn't suffer much hardship there. She had never eaten snakes before, especially since snakes are most likely to become mutated beasts. Even if she wanted to eat them, she would have to be able to afford them. Mutated beast meat is very expensive, and ordinary ability users simply cannot afford it.
I couldn't hold on. I rested for two days and am now hospitalized and getting injections. There are many patients across the country with the same symptoms as me, including fever, runny nose, sneezing, coughing, and cold symptoms. Some say it's mycoplasma, others say it's influenza A, but I've been getting injections for half a month and haven't gotten better. I'm just toughing it out. I even got my period in between. Who knows how hard this is?!
If I cough, my vagina swells up like a fountain. If I'm out for two hours, I have to change into both my overnight pants and a sanitary napkin. Even then, when I get home, my underwear is soaked through, and my pants are covered in my period. I'm going crazy!
My head was throbbing from coughing. Several times I coughed so hard that my brain was deprived of oxygen, and the whole room started spinning. I almost fell and died, right next to the corner of the table.
Please be careful, everyone. Try not to leave your house, stay away from crowds, and avoid gathering in groups. Remember to wear a mask when you go out. Love you all!
