"Uncle Li, I understand. I'm so grateful to you all for taking care of my mom and Tiantian during this time."
As soon as Xiao Lingfeng finished speaking, Aunt Wang ran out of the bedroom, with Tian Tian following closely behind her. She had clearly gained weight, and her little face was chubby.
"Lingfeng, you're finally back! You're not leaving this time, are you?" Aunt Wang ran over and hugged Xiao Lingfeng tightly, tears streaming down her face. During this time, she had no worries about food and drink and had lived a very comfortable life.
But I can't sleep well every night. My son isn't by my side, and it would be a lie to say I don't miss him.
"Mom, don't cry. I'm fine. I still have to leave in a few days, but they've already allocated me a house next door. Once I've settled in, you can move in."
"Okay, okay, son, the house isn't important. The most important thing is that you're safe and sound, then I'm relieved."
Aunt Wang wiped away her tears and saw that Xiao Lingfeng had become much darker and his face was noticeably rougher. She knew that her son must have suffered a lot.
That's true. There are monsters everywhere over there. He's still stuck in Jianghai City. It would be strange if he had a good time.
"Lingfeng, come and sit down. Haven't you eaten yet? I'll go make you something right now. Xiaoning, what would you like to eat? Just tell Auntie." Aunt Li was also very happy to see the Wang family reunited.
He pulled Jian Ning and Xiao Lingfeng to sit down on the sofa.
"Where's my sister-in-law? Are the kids doing well?" Jian Ning was still quite concerned about her two nephews.
"She's resting inside. The two kids are getting more and more troublesome as they get older. Luckily, there are many people in our family who can help take care of them. It's not too tiring for her."
"I'll go check on them. I've missed them quite a bit since I last saw them," Jian Ning said, standing up and heading to Li Mengyao's room. She gently knocked twice on the door before opening it and going in.
Li Mengyao was sitting on the kang (a heated brick bed) knitting sweaters for the children. The two children were lying side by side on the kang, sleeping soundly.
"Xiao Ning, you just got back?" Li Mengyao was pleasantly surprised to see Jian Ning walk in, and her voice rose considerably.
"Shh! Sister-in-law, keep your voice down, don't wake the children." Jian Ning noticed that the two little ones had furrowed their brows, they must have been startled by Li Mengyao's voice.
"It's alright, these two kids are tough, they won't wake up from this little noise. Xiao Ning, you've been gone for several months, and your brother and I have been worried sick about you."
"The New Year is almost here, and if you don't come back soon, your brother is thinking of going out to look for you. I had to stop him."
"My brother is the same. Where can he find me? I just heard Company Commander Huang praise my brother, saying that he has been performing exceptionally well recently. He has finally learned to be ambitious. I am so happy for him."
"He's a father of two now, how could he still be so irresponsible? After experiencing the apocalypse, not only him, but even Tian Tian has become much more sensible. By the way, have you seen Huang Fugui?" Li Mengyao suddenly asked.
"No, I didn't see it follow Tian Tian when she came out. By the way, why isn't Ba Wang home either?" Jian Ning only realized now that the two animals in the house were completely silent.
"Just a couple of days ago, I don't know where Huang Fugui caught a fox from, it caught and ate two of the chickens in the greenhouse, and then it ran away."
This angered Huang Fugui, who led Ba Wang up the mountain to catch the fox for two days in a row, and they left early this morning.
They probably won't be back until dark. That fox is cunning. Neither of us in the family can handle it; we're completely helpless!
"This is so pointless. What can you do with that fox if you catch it? Can you eat it or what?"
"If something happens to the family, and they run far away, will they be able to come back in time to rescue them? What were my instructions when I left? I think Huang Fugui is being a bit too strict."
Jian Ning was a little angry. This Huang Fugui shouldn't be so naive. After all, it had lived for thousands of years, and its cunning was no less than that of a human.
Jian Ning didn't believe anyone could fool it. Unless that fox was more capable than Huang Fugui, or was also a spirit beast?
That's impossible. In this plane, so far, Jian Ning hasn't discovered a creature more powerful than Huang Fugui.
"It's just these past two days, Xiao Ning, don't say anything to it. Huang Fugui is so sensible. Sometimes I feel like it has the intelligence of an adult. As long as you tell it once, there's nothing it won't do."
Now, everyone in the family likes Huang Fugui. This guy is so intelligent and understanding. If you ignore his appearance, you would think he is a little child.
He understands everything you say and can even respond. And Ba Wang is truly a big fan of his.
They followed Huang Fugui closely, never leaving his side. If he told them to go east, they would never go west. They obeyed orders and followed commands. Just the two of them alone protected this yard very well.
Even if there were some troublemakers in the base, knowing they had a lot of supplies, they wouldn't dare to come and rob them. Not only were there patrolling soldiers in the garrison, but Huang Fugui and his companion's fighting ability alone was enough to intimidate those people.
They had witnessed Huang Fugui bring back a leopard from the mountain with their own eyes. The two men were so vastly different in size. They simply couldn't understand how a small cat could possibly drag such a large leopard. It didn't make any sense at all.
The tyrant kept jumping around excitedly. Everyone thought it was Huang Fugui's good luck.
They encountered a starving leopard on the mountain, which snatched it and killed it. This was mainly thanks to the tyrant, as that dog was as big as a calf and looked very robust.
These are just guesses, but they also give us a sense that the Jian family is not to be trifled with.
In a post-apocalyptic world where people are starving, the fact that his family can still keep cats and dogs means they're definitely not an ordinary family. It's best to avoid provoking them.
Because everyone shared similar thoughts, the house remained peaceful during Jian Ning's absence. Nothing happened at all.
After chatting with Li Mengyao for a while, Jian Anping came home from get off work. She chatted with Xiao Lingfeng for a few minutes before rushing into the bedroom.
"Xiao Ning, you must have been through a lot while you were out. You've gotten so thin!" The man looked Jian Ning up and down as soon as he entered the room, and then said with great certainty.
"No way, son, I've been eating and drinking well. I even had wolf meat in Jianghai City!"
It's incredibly delicious, much better than pork! Oh, and I also saved half a wolf for you. Aunt Li will cook it for you tonight so you can try it.
As Jian Ning spoke, she thought of the supplies in her immortal abode. She would take out more of them later, because if Xiao Lingfeng took Grandma Wang and Tian Tian to live elsewhere, they would need to buy things for various purposes.
