Become a winner in life after binding the childbearing system

Chapter 386 Daily Wasteland Collection (14)

Shen Jiancheng walked in front pushing the cart, with Cheng Qi following behind him.

Cheng Qi had just got off work and met Shen Jiancheng on his way home. Seeing that his father-in-law was busy, Cheng Qi could no longer leave indifferently, so he simply followed him to help.

Shen Yao waved, "How are you?" Cheng Qi was very tired these two days. Everyone in the patrol team was busy taking leave to dig sweet potatoes. The sweet potato garden is now a popular collection point, and even the number of buses going to the base has increased by several.

"It's okay, I'll be busy for two more days and then I can take a break." The patrol team couldn't always let him take over. Besides, Cheng Qi helped to repay a favor he had done before, and the favor he was owed didn't mean he would have to work so hard all the time.

"My dad and eldest brother will be back soon. Why don't we make an appointment with Uncle Shen and Aunt Song first? Our business..." The two families must sit together and have a formal meal. They didn't have the chance to meet before, and now that the hot rainy season is about to come, Cheng Qi doesn't want to delay.

"Let's talk about it today," Shen Yao made the final decision, thinking that it would be better to do it today than to wait for another day, there is no need to worry about so many things.

Cheng Qi smiled, and Shen Yao felt itchy in her heart when she saw his handsome face.

To be honest, Cheng Qi has a really good figure and looks, and looks like he has the potential to be the protagonist.

If this guy hadn't behaved so coldly and aloofly before, and all the girls who pursued him had been rejected, he would have been picked up and taken home to have babies.

The cart was piled with sacks of harvested wood ear mushrooms, which were filled with wood ear mushrooms.

Shen Yu and Cheng Qi each carried the two backpacks. Cheng Qi, who was originally going home, simply had a meal at Shen's house, and as expected, was scolded by Cheng's mother.

"Look, my mom said I'm shameless," Cheng Qi showed the watch to Shen Yao openly. At this time, he was helping Shen Yao deal with the melons and cherries in the backpack.

They were all expensive and delicious fruits. Song Ling did not plan to sell them, but to give some to the Cheng family and keep the rest for herself to eat slowly.

When drinking water, one should remember the person who dug the well; whether cherries and melons can be picked depends entirely on the process.

"Aunt Cheng is right," Shen Yao felt that Cheng Qi was not thin-skinned at all. It turned out that this was not the case. She understood more and more about this person's true face.

Put the fruit in a basin, rinse it with clean water, wipe it with a paper towel and set it aside.

Two of the five melons were divided into two parts, and there were more cherries, filling up a small pot.

Cheng Qi refused again and again. How could he take Yue’s things? Did he still want to get married?

"Xiao Cheng, just take them. And take that sack of fungus back with you," the more Song Ling looked at Cheng Qi, the more she liked him.

Without Cheng Qi's help, these collection points might not have picked so much.

"Auntie Song" Cheng Qi felt embarrassed and tried to refuse again and again, so he simply chose to accept it.

Shen Yao hid aside and asked maliciously whether he should lend him the cart from home, otherwise it would be tiring to carry the things back. Even though Area C and Area B were relatively close, it would still take some time to get back from Area C to Area B.

The day was getting longer and longer, and it was not yet dark outside, but Cheng Qi just carried his things back home carelessly. Even though he was wearing the patrol team's work clothes, Shen Yao was still worried about his personal safety.

Cheng Qi nodded without any pretense, "I'll send it to you tomorrow morning."

The cart was put back on the road less than two hours after it had been rested in the yard. Shen Yao went out to see Cheng Qi off for a while, and was finally pushed back by him.

"I have to go out to collect tomorrow," Cheng Qi waved his hand and pointed at his watch, "Let's talk later."

He planned to tell Shen Yao about all the good collection points around Changle Town. After all, no one could be sure that he was the one who leaked the patrol team's map.

Cheng Qi knew that many people in the patrol team would do this.

Cheng Qi didn't participate before because the Cheng family really didn't need this little bit of food and drink, and the relationship between colleagues was pretty good. But now, the Shen family is not as well-off as the Cheng family, so Cheng Qi decided to follow the example of his colleagues and dig up some good things to supplement his family.

With a ding-dong sound, Shen Yao opened her watch, revealing a more detailed map than before.

If the previous map was only an approximation, now we have the exact location.

For some of the places, Cheng Qi had to shamelessly ask the inspection team members to come in person, and he kept saying that the favors from the sweet potato garden had to be repaid.

Shen Yao:......

Shen Yao covered her face with one hand and blushed even more. Although neither of them could see each other's faces because of the watches, it was still very embarrassing.

"No, this is a normal transaction. I'll return it next time I have a chance."

Cheng Qi adapted well to this kind of situation, maybe because he did a lot of it on weekdays. Shen Yao still had the mind to think about other things. She sent messages to Cheng Qi, asking him to rest more and not cause trouble when he got home.

"The patrol team is short of manpower recently, so you should not go to collection points that are too far away, even if there are a lot of supplies." Once something happens and the patrol team is too late to rescue in time, all the extra supplies will be wasted, and if you lose your life, you will lose everything. Cheng Qi asked Shen Yao to wander around Changle Town, which is a place that is famous for its safety and abundance of supplies.

"Don't worry, we won't go far, and neither should you." Staying in the base doesn't mean there is no danger. There are all kinds of people in the base, including many who can't survive and want to take revenge on society.

Shen Yao dug up many such bloody scenes from her original memory. There was no reason at all, she simply wanted to drag other people to death.

Even in the most dangerous time, the enemy had already reached her, but Shen Yu kicked the opponent away, thus protecting both of them.

Dangerous elements in the base like these usually behave like normal people and are difficult to identify.

The two of them talked for a long time using the chat function on their watches until Song Ling called her over to take a shower.

The bath water is warm. After taking a bath, you can change into new clothes and have dinner.

After sending the map on the watch to the other three people, Shen Yao simply repeated Cheng Qi's words. Before Shen Jiancheng and Shen Yu spoke, Song Ling took the lead in praising Cheng Qi.

"Xiao Cheng is a very honest kid, but will it be too difficult for Xiao Cheng? He is alone in the patrol team and has little strength. What if someone tries to make things difficult for him? It's better to just forget it."

The more Song Ling spoke, the less confident she became. It wasn't that she was reluctant to give up a few collection points, but Cheng Qi was more important than the collection points. Not to mention that a decent job would bring them honor, even the name of the patrol team was very intimidating, and would make the safety of their Shen family even better.

In Song Ling's opinion, it was totally unnecessary to cause turmoil in her son-in-law's work just for a few unimportant collection points.

"My daughter, we can go somewhere else tomorrow. Tell Xiao Cheng not to force himself. There is still a lot of time. Don't get into conflicts with colleagues..." Song Ling kept talking. Shen Jiancheng also interrupted her when he saw this. The couple had only one idea in mind, which was to let Cheng Qi stabilize his job first, and other things could be discussed slowly.

Shen Yao:......

Shen Yao rubbed her head and told Shen Jiancheng and Song Ling not to worry, saying that Cheng Qi was smarter than anyone else and would never do something that would ruin his future.

"It was all done by the inspection team themselves, but the Cheng family has a stronger foundation than the Shen family," Cheng Qicai did not take any action until he formed a marriage relationship with the Shen family.

Shen Jiancheng, Song Ling: …

The couple felt even more embarrassed after hearing this. It was all their fault. It was because their Shen family was poor that they allowed their son-in-law to abuse his power for personal gain.

"Don't talk about this, Dad, Mom, first look at where tomorrow's collection points are located. Let's take advantage of our free time in the next few days to check them out."

Later, Shen Yao gave her family a heads-up in advance, telling them that some of the collection points on the map obtained from the patrol team might have been visited no less than several times, so they could not complain even if the harvested supplies were not much.

"Well, what are you complaining about? As long as it exists, it's fine." They are not picky at all and are much happier now than they were last year.

Whether the days are good or bad depends on how they are treated. It was during this mild season that the Shen family got back on their feet. Before that, they lived frugally every day.

Shen Yao:......

Shen Yao thought about it and realized that it was true. It was no wonder that the Shen family was afraid of everything. They really didn't have much confidence. The Shen family's family background was also in the middle and lower class in the entire C area.

The Shen family has two pillars, but it is very dangerous for a mercenary team to go out. If they can't come back, it will be worse. Unlike areas B and A, the class is stable and there is no worry about being overwhelmed by accidents.

Standing up from the dining table, Shen Yao swung her arms and went back to her room to rest.

As for what Shen Jiancheng and Song Ling can research, that is their business, and Shen Yao just needs to execute it.

…………

The next morning, the family went out and met Cheng Qi who came to deliver the cart.

Song Ling smiled like a flower, and gave the other person two boiled pheasant eggs, asking him to take them to class to eat.

Cheng Qi did not refuse. He sweetly thanked his future mother-in-law for feeding him. He walked to Shen Yao, lowered his head and said a few words before turning and leaving.

Shen Yao expressed her incomprehension of Cheng Qi's clinginess, but this man was too busy on weekdays and could not spare any free time recently.

"Let's go, take a bus to Changle Town," Song Ling spoke in a loud voice. When the four of them passed by Zhou's house, Aunt Zhou called them.

"Old Zhou, what's going on?" Song Ling hadn't talked to her old friend much recently, and was shocked to see her looking so haggard.

Aunt Zhou waved her hands, looking listless, "My Da Zhuang and Er Zhuang are out and haven't come back yet, and I can't go out to take care of the kids.

Old Song, I just want to ask you a favor. Can you help me check on Zhou Ying?"

Aunt Zhou burst into tears when she mentioned her daughter. Didn't they have a quarrel before? Aunt Zhou gave Zhou Ying a lot of food, which caused dissatisfaction among her family, and Zhou Ying never came back after that.

Aunt Zhou was worried that her daughter couldn't hold on with her big belly, so she wanted Song Ling to go for her.

Knowing that this was not quite the right thing to do, Aunt Zhou looked embarrassed and hesitated as she handed over the food she had prepared in advance. Song Ling couldn't bear it anymore and snatched it away herself to reassure Aunt Zhou.

"It's just a side trip. You take care of yourself. You can't go hungry and save food for your daughter." Song Ling understood where the food came from. She just wanted to save her own food. After all, there was a daughter-in-law and grandchildren at home, so it was difficult for Aunt Zhou to do so.

"I don't want to trouble the children at home too much, and as an old woman, it's okay for me to eat less," Aunt Zhou defended herself weakly, looking very sad and helpless.

Song Ling was angry, "You are just too stupid. If children are disobedient, they will learn by letting them suffer more, but you have to spoil them."

It was obvious that Zhou Ying was not sober. Aunt Zhou couldn't stop him when they got married. If she was soft-hearted and helped him now, she would only be exploited even more by Zhou Ying.

This is not a good thing. Aunt Zhou currently relies on her son for support in her old age. Her daughter can only provide limited help after getting married, not to mention that she is a drag.

Seeing that she couldn't persuade her best friend from her infatuation, Song Ling simply kept quiet, waved her hand and asked Aunt Zhou to go back, promising to deliver the gift for her.

Shen Yao was puzzled, "Zhou Ying is not in good condition, can Aunt Zhou take her back?"

Song Ling shook her head and smiled bitterly, "It's not that simple. Zhou Ying's husband is a jerk, and your Aunt Zhou is counting on her son." If the daughters-in-law are not happy, Zhou Ying will never come back.

Besides, what if Zhou Ying gave birth to the baby in her belly? How could the Zhou family afford to raise a precious baby for free? There was no money.

"My daughter, although Xiao Cheng is a good man, you two don't need to have a child so early." Children are difficult to raise, so Song Ling took the opportunity to educate her, fearing that Shen Yao would get too carried away and insist on having a child at all costs.

Shen Yao:......

Although I came here with the mission of having a child, the prerequisite is that I have to live a good life. Why have a child when I am penniless? I should support myself first.

"Mom, Cheng Qi and I have discussed this. There is no need to rush for the next two or three years."

How old are they? They are still enjoying single life in modern society.

It's just that the mutant world is too weird, and they are in a hurry to do anything, which makes it difficult for them to fall in love. Instead, they have to get married first and then talk about feelings.

The idea of ​​getting married first and falling in love later popped up in Shen Yao's head. She rubbed her forehead speechlessly. Forget it, she really can't think about it too much.

Because they wanted to deliver something to Zhou Ying, the group took a long detour.

"He lives in District D, right?" Shen Yao had a vague impression of the address.

Song Ling shook her head. "It has moved. It is not in District D, but in District E."

"Zone E?"

Shen Yao was about to say something but stopped herself, thinking that District E was too remote and the most likely place for accidents, so why would she be so desperate as to move out?

Song Ling didn't notice Shen Yao's conflicted expression and was still muttering that Zhou Ying was unreliable.

In the watch, Aunt Zhou has told Song Ling a lot about Zhou Ying, none of which is very good, and Song Ling has a premonition that the trip she is taking on behalf of Aunt Zhou will not be smooth.

Soon, we arrived at Area E.

Compared with the well-organized District C, the streets in District E appear messy, and the people living in District E do not seem to be in very good spirits.

Shen Yao frowned. If Song Ling had not pointed out the location of Zhou Ying's house, she would have turned around.

We can't stay here for long, even with the two big men Shen Jiancheng and Shen Yu, the looks from the people around us are simply creepy.

dong dong dong-

Standing in front of a bungalow with no yard and only a simple wooden door, Song Ling knocked patiently and called Zhou Ying twice.

No response at all.

This……

"Are you their relatives? They haven't been out for two days."

There was a sound coming from the next room, and it was obvious that the person was impatient with Song Ling's interruption.

Song Ling had no choice but to let Shen Jiancheng push the door open. He hadn't come out for two days, so something must have happened.

As expected, when the door was pushed open, the four people saw Zhou Ying fainted on a small wooden bed in the narrow space, with blood flowing from under his body.

"Xiao Yu, borrow a cart. Lao Shen, come with me to take Zhou Ying to the hospital.

Yaoyao, contact your Aunt Zhou and ask her to go to the hospital and wait as soon as possible."

Taking a deep breath, Song Ling made arrangements in an orderly manner, and the four of them immediately took action.
