The rookie returns and flies in the apocalypse
Chapter 323 My own melon
Stopping his wife from talking to herself, Political Commissar Zhou said, "They are people with special abilities."
Huang was startled and said excitedly:
"What is a superpower? Superman? Spider-Man? Can you fly over eaves and walk on walls?"
Political Commissar Zhou couldn't explain the details, "They can do what ordinary people can't."
Huang became even more excited, "Will our grandson also be a superpower in the future?"
Without waiting for Political Commissar Zhou to answer, he ran towards Zhou Yuanyuan's room with a smile on his face: "My daughter, my daughter, this is great news..."
Political Commissar Zhou: “…”
He hasn't finished speaking yet. Can ordinary people like us be worthy of people with super powers?
Pei Nansheng went to the market to set up a stall. When familiar merchants heard the news, they all asked him whether he was really engaged.
"No, it's just a rumor."
Pei Nansheng denied it outright.
One person said:
"Is that so? I have a nice girl here. Can you introduce her to me, Brother Pei?"
Pei Nansheng: "..."
Another person squeezed over:
"I have a distant cousin who is a good match for Brother Pei. She's not far away. I'll call her over. Can you take a look?"
"Hey, this is inappropriate. Is there a first come first served rule? I'm introducing Brother Pei to you. What do you mean by butting in?"
"We are all introduced, so it's fair competition. Maybe Brother Pei has taken a fancy to my cousin."
"Don't be funny. I don't even like your cousin's pockmarked face, let alone Brother Pei."
"What's wrong with pockmarks? That's called interest. You know nothing about it."
"It's interesting, but please stop teasing me. Look at that pockmarked face. I can't even eat."
"Who told you to watch it? What does it have to do with you? I think you are just worrying about something else."
"I'm just worried, Brother Pei. The girl I introduced to you is a hundred times better than his cousin."
"Heh, who knows if you've ever been there before? Don't tell me you've played it several times, it's not disgusting enough."
"You fart!"
"..."
The two of them became more and more arguing and were about to start a war.
There has always been a lack of people watching the fun, and before long, several circles of people gathered in front of Pei Nansheng's stall.
Ever since the banner about exchanging compressed biscuits for snake venom was put up, many people have been targeting Pei Nansheng.
Pei Nansheng is a man of few words, and has an aloof look that makes it difficult for people to approach him.
Now that the door has been opened, no one with ulterior motives would miss it.
Pei Nansheng pulled the two apart with a cold face:
"Alright, alright, stop talking. I have no plans to start a family, so stop arguing."
"Brother Pei, don't listen to his nonsense. He slandered that girl. I have nothing to do with that girl."
"Whether there is one or not, who knows."
"..."
It looked like they were about to quarrel again.
I couldn't continue setting up the stall, so I just packed up and went home.
On the way back, someone stopped him and insisted on introducing him to a girl, which made him very annoyed.
Zuo Ling went to Professor Jin's house early in the morning.
My brother says that he doesn't want to get married, but which man really doesn't want to get married? Zuo Ling doesn't want her brother to be alone all his life.
Professor Jin went to work, leaving Researcher Tang alone at home.
Researcher Tang was very happy to see Zuo Ling.
"Zuo Ling, come, come, come, sit down, sit down quickly."
"Aunt Tang, how are you? Are you feeling better?"
Researcher Tang was able to get out of bed and looked fine.
"Much better, much better. Thank you for your concern."
Taking the big bag that Zuo Ling brought, he said, "Look at you. You come here and you always bring things with you. It's as if you're not allowed in if you don't bring anything."
Zuo Ling brought some sweet potatoes and potatoes, as well as a few handfuls of green vegetables for the old couple.
"It's from our own garden, so it's nothing special. Just don't despise it."
"Isn't this a good thing? Then there is no good thing. You can't even buy it with contribution points."
The plantation's output is more abundant than before, but there are too many wolves and too little meat, so whenever it is on the market, it is sold out.
Professor Jin and his wife are old, and by the time they got the news and rushed to the service center, they were lucky to have a few vegetable leaves left.
The things Zuo Ling brought might not be bought even if you spent half a year’s contribution points.
The food Zuo Ling brought last time was almost finished. When his son came back, Researcher Tang always wanted to make some delicious food for his son, but he had nowhere to buy it. He felt that Zuo Ling was really a timely help.
"Jin Yu is back, right? Does he live with you?"
Zuo Ling changed the subject.
"The house is too small to accommodate him, so he lives in the hospital dormitory and comes back occasionally."
When talking about his son, Researcher Tang felt half happy and half sad.
After the third son came back, the whole family hugged each other and cried bitterly.
Until now, San'er has not said anything about the eldest brother's family.
Need I say more? Since the person hasn't come back, I understand everything.
After chatting for a while, Zuo Ling suddenly changed the subject:
"Aunt Tang, I came here today to ask you about Zhou Yuanyuan's family situation."
"Her home..."
Huang said that they were neighbors with Professor Jin's family, but in fact, there was a wall between them.
Zhou Yuanyuan's family lives in the military family compound, where conditions are similar to those in the expert compound, but it's quieter.
"Why, her family came to propose marriage?"
Huang begged the old couple to be a matchmaker, but being a matchmaker is not an easy job and might lead to blame, so the old couple refused.
"Well, the mother and daughter came to my house in person."
Researcher Tang was surprised:
"Old Huang really likes your brother. We are not familiar with his family. We only met them after we moved here. We only know that Old Huang works in the neighborhood office, her husband is in the army, a division-level cadre, and her daughter works in the service center. Their family is okay. Their family has a good reputation and there is no bad news about them."
Just as he finished speaking, there was a knock on the door, "Old Tang, Old Tang, are you home?"
Researcher Tang stood up to open the door, and a woman poked her head in.
"We have guests."
Researcher Tang smiled. The old couple were simple people and seldom interacted with neighbors. It was obvious that the woman came for Zuo Ling.
"Ah, we have guests. How about you come back later?"
The woman's eyes were almost glued to Zuo Ling, so how could she come back later?
"This must be Miss Zuo from the plantation. Oh, seeing is believing. She is so pretty."
The woman walked up to Zuo Ling and held Zuo Ling's hand tightly.
Zuo Ling smiled awkwardly and tried to pull her hand back twice, but failed.
The woman introduces herself:
"My last name is Ding, you can just call me Aunt Ding. Zhou Yuanyuan's mother and I both work in the neighborhood office. She's in charge of the military dependents' compound, and I'm in charge of District 1."
"Hello, Aunt Ding."
Zuo Ling forced a polite smile.
"Okay, okay. I heard that your brother is engaged to Zhou Yuanyuan?"
"Not yet, you heard wrong."
This Old Huang is so dishonest. He can make something that doesn't exist sound like something real.
The woman slapped her thigh:
"I have met your brother, he is a good young man. My daughter is 25 years old, she is not worse looking than Zhou Yuanyuan, and she has a gentle personality. You two will definitely get along well in the future."
Zuo Ling: "..."
What does that have to do with anything? Are mothers nowadays so eager to push their daughters away?
"This... I can't make the decision. You have to ask my brother."
"That's fine. I see you're not young anymore. My nephew from my mother's side is 29 years old, handsome, and a company commander in the army. He's a good match for you. I'll ask him to take a leave. When can you meet him?"
The muzzle of the gun was moving very quickly, Zuo Ling was speechless.
"Aunt Ding, I'm married, and I'm 8 years older than your nephew."
The woman's eyes widened. "You're... 37? Oh my god, you don't look like it."
Zuo Ling looked at her and smiled. She had nothing to say this time.
"What's there to be afraid of when you're older? When you're older, you know how to care for others. A girl who's three years older than you is holding a gold brick. Let's hold a few more and piss off the one holding just one."
The woman's words were shocking, and Zuo Ling was shocked.
Knock, knock, knock, knock, someone is knocking on the door again.
Researcher Tang opened the door and saw two women standing at the door, both from the Institute of Experts.
A woman with a loud voice said:
"Old Tang, we have guests at home... Oh, whose girl is this? She's so pretty."
Ding's eyes were alert because the prying people were coming.
Another woman, who was more gentle, spoke softly:
"Miss Zuo from the plantation, you can tell at a glance that she is. But if you look around the base, you won't find many with better temperament than Miss Zuo."
The loud-voiced woman glanced at the elegant woman and said, "Only you can say that!"
"Ahaha, that's what I thought. It turns out to be Miss Zuo. Miss Zuo's name is well-known, but seeing her in person is worse than hearing about her."
"..."
The following words are similar, one introduces his daughter to Pei Nansheng, and the other introduces his nephew to Zuo Ling.
Each one was more direct than the other, and all of them were impatient, without even a word of conversation. Researcher Tang's eyes almost popped out of his head as he listened.
I don't have much contact with Lao Ding, but I live in the same courtyard with the other two. I run into them from time to time. They are quite polite and reserved. Is this... a curse?
Without waiting for Zuo Ling to reply, Ding turned against the two of them:
"Is there a first come first served rule? We are having a conversation here, why are you making trouble?"
Loud voice without mercy:
"Oh, Lao Ding, how can you have the nerve to introduce your daughter to others with her looks?"
The elegant woman covered her mouth and laughed secretly: "Old Ding, your daughter has mentioned several places, it's enough, don't be too picky."
The two men pointed their guns at Ding.
Ding's face turned red with anger:
"Stop spouting all that crap, Lao Tao. Your daughter is nothing good. She flirts with this one today and hooks up with that one tomorrow."
Lao Tao's loud voice roared like thunder:
"You're talking nonsense. If you keep talking nonsense, I'll tear your mouth off."
"..."
The three of them kept exposing each other's shortcomings. Zuo Ling couldn't stand it anymore, so he said goodbye to Researcher Tang and left in a hurry.
"Hey, Miss Zuo, wait for me, don't listen to them..."
"Miss Zuo, Miss Zuo..."
The three of them were pulling and tugging at each other, and no one was willing to let the other step out of the door. Zuo Ling had already walked away, but the three of them were still arguing.
Researcher Tang said with a sullen face: "Get out of here, if you want to fight, go outside and fight, don't fight in my house."
They are grown-ups, yet they are so shameless. She felt ashamed for the three of them.
The brother and sister arrived home one after the other.
Zuo Ling asked Pei Nansheng: "Why did you come back so early?"
"I'm tired. I can't take a day off."
"Okay, okay."
Zuo Ling poured herself a glass of water and recounted what happened at Professor Jin's house as if she was telling a joke.
"Oh my god, this is ridiculous, so shameless, so horrible."
Pei Nansheng pinched his brows:
"Let's go to Shu. When we come back, it will probably be less hot."
Something is going on. "Could it be that someone in the market has introduced you to someone? You couldn't handle it, so you came back early?"
Pei Nansheng: "..."
"Ah, there really is one. Tell me, tell me, whose daughter is she? Have you seen her?"
My brother’s melon is fresh and hot, and tastes delicious.
Knock, knock, knock, knock.
The brother and sister looked outside the yard together and saw four unfamiliar faces, two old and two young.
There are few people, one boy and one girl.
Zuo Ling held his forehead with his hand and Pei Nansheng laughed.
You like to eat melons, right? Eat your own melon.
The four people were stunned by laughter.
