Happiness System

Chapter 67 The Stepping Stone of the Apocalypse Heroine (3)

Seeing that the three women at home were about to burst into tears again, Qin Dacong was overwhelmed. He quickly interrupted the tearful women and said, "The base only provides electricity for two hours from six to eight o'clock. How about we stop crying and get something to eat first?"

Qin Yunxi was interrupted like this, and all the emotions she had been brewing disappeared. She was not the original owner, and the emotions that the original owner left in this body could not actually affect her much.

The reason why she was able to take over the original owner's role and integrate into this family so quickly was probably because everything the original owner possessed was what she desperately wanted in her original world.

Zhuang Qiao also took it in and said with a smile: "Yes, yes, yes, Xixi has worked so hard on the way back, she has lost weight..."

Halfway through her words, she stared at her daughter with wide eyes and was too embarrassed to continue saying that her daughter had lost weight.

Qin Yunxi smiled awkwardly. Everyone had lost weight, but she really hadn't.

Her main function for the past half month has been to serve as a mobile warehouse, so it is really not her turn to worry about things that require her to use her brain.

"Haha, I ate well during this trip and didn't lose weight! But grandma and my parents have lost a lot of weight. Are they reluctant to eat a full meal?

Come on, Mom, where is the kitchen? Let me see if you are running out of food. I'll get some out so we can have a good meal tonight!

By the way, do my two uncles live far away? Can we invite them to eat together?"

In fact, the house was very small, and Qin Yunxi could see the kitchen at a glance. As she spoke, she pulled Zhuang Qiao towards there.

"Well, now it's almost the same as the planned economy at the end of the 1950s and 1960s. It's not like before when we could eat as much as we want.

But our family is not bad. Although we don’t have big fish and meat, we are not hungry.

Your uncle's family lives on the tenth floor above us. Your cousin's wife cooks delicious food. Ask your dad to call someone down to help...

Dacong, Dacong, did you hear me talking to my daughter? Go and call for help, don't just stand there!"

As Zhuang Qiao spoke, she opened the plastic storage box on the ground and showed Qin Yunxi the remaining food at home.

There wasn't much in it, just about ten pounds of rice, two one-kilogram bags of flour, some beans, dehydrated vegetables and a little dried meat.

Zhuang Qiao did not think that this amount of food was too little. Instead, she said proudly, "Our food reserves are quite a lot. This amount of food can feed an ordinary family of four for two months!"

Your brother is very capable now. He can drive an excavator and a tower crane. The weather has been better recently and they have started working again. And your dad, through your uncle's connections, got him a small management job, which is similar to the job he had as a contractor when he was young.

They get paid once a week, and the base gives them half the food and half the points..."

Qin Yunxi's mouth twitched when she listened. In the past, her brother and her father used to use their hands to sign contracts. Although the amounts were not as exaggerated as tens of millions or even hundreds of millions, they at least completed orders worth hundreds of thousands or millions. Now, these hands were moving bricks at the construction site?

But these things will be discussed later. When she and Wen Yanbei come back, there will definitely be some changes at home. She asked Zhuang Qiao: "Mom, do other people in the family know that I have a space?"

"Your grandma knows, but she won't let us tell you. Your uncle and cousin Li probably know something, but your aunt doesn't seem to know, and your uncle and his family probably don't know either."

Later in life, Zhuang Qiao returned to her family and became a full-time housewife. Besides meeting with other wives for beauty treatments, shopping and playing mahjong, she also loved watching TV series and reading novels, so she naturally knew about this magical thing called space.

Since the old lady didn't allow her to say anything, she naturally wouldn't say anything, for she was afraid that it would be leaked and those so-called upper class people would catch her daughter.

Qin Yunxi nodded in understanding, and before Qin Dacong called anyone back, she quickly put some things out.

"Oh, there are too many, take some of them back quickly. You took out so much and we don't have that many sealed bags at home. In this weather, if you don't seal them well, they will grow mold in less than a day!"

Zhuang Qiao was stunned by this "magic" that came out of nothing at first, but when he came to his senses, he immediately picked up the thing on the ground and stuffed it into Qin Yunxi's arms.

"Oh, Mom, this is not much. There are more than 30 people in our family, including the two uncles' families, and Brother Yanbei and Shiyishisan! Didn't I tell you earlier? Superpowers! Do you still want everyone in your family to be successful?"

Of course Qin Yunxi couldn't accept it, so she took out the gas tank and stove.

If their SUV had limited space and didn't want to be too outrageous, she would have wanted to get more things to transform this poor house that was more Syrian than Syrian.

Look, the unfinished houses in the past at least had a layer of gray sand, but the unfinished houses now have just the bricks exposed.

It's true that if a mouse comes in, it will run away crying!

The most important thing is that there is not even a door in the room! The whole house has only one door, and the rest is solved by a piece of curtain.

After all, her family had a net worth of tens of billions before the end of the world. Now, her family is so poor that she wants to cry!

My uncle and his family arrived very quickly.

A nosy neighbor had already come to his house and said that a capable guest had come to his sister's house. Uncle Zhuang didn't know that Qin Dacong and Qin Yunzheng had already asked for leave and came back. Fearing that the guest was there to cause trouble and that his old mother and sister would suffer, he immediately gathered everyone at home, including the three-year-old child, to hurry downstairs. As a result, they met Qin Dacong who came up to call for help halfway.

It was almost time for dinner and people who went to work were about to get off work. Upon learning that it was his niece who had returned, Uncle Zhuang waved his hand and told his daughter-in-law and grandchildren to go home. It was enough for him and his wife to go and see their granddaughter.

Qin Dacong quickly stopped him and said that his daughter had already said that she would treat everyone to a meal when she returned to Kyoto. If everyone went back, wouldn't that make his daughter break her promise?

Besides, his wife and daughter are waiting for his niece-in-law to help with the work!

Uncle Zhuang saw that his brother-in-law had sincerely invited them to dinner, and he thought that his niece must have brought back a lot of supplies, so he did not refuse. He just asked his eldest daughter-in-law to go down and help first, and he and his wife took the other children back to move the tables and chairs.

When Qin Dacong returned home with his niece-in-law, Wen Yanbei and others had also moved all the supplies up. He hurriedly asked his son to go to his second uncle's house to call for help.

"Sister-in-law, what's wrong with you?" Qin Yunxi was shocked when she saw her cousin's wife's obviously bulging belly.

My cousin’s wife smiled bitterly and said, “I was pregnant with twins and was about to make the announcement in three months, but then the end of the world came. After entering the base, I was afraid that I wouldn’t be able to raise the children and didn’t want to have the baby, but the doctor said my body was not suitable for an abortion, so I had no choice but to bite the bullet and have the baby.”

She and her husband already have three children, a boy and a girl. Now faced with the current situation in the world, if her health did not allow it, she really would not want these two children.

Qin Yunxi didn't know what to say, so she could only scold Zhuang Qiao: "Mom, you are so annoying. Why didn't you tell me earlier that my sister-in-law was pregnant? Pregnant women are the key protected people in our family. We can't let her get tired!"

Zhuang Qiao: "Haha, I didn't react for a moment, I just thought that it's the end of the world now and we women are not so delicate.

Miaomiao, I'll bring a stool in for you. You can sit here and we can chat. Then you can tell me how to prepare these ingredients and cook them to make them more delicious."

My cousin's wife Miao Jin quickly stopped her and said, "Aunt, no need for a stool. You are right. Women nowadays are not that delicate. I am not pregnant yet, and I often do these things at home."

After saying that, he rolled up his sleeves and started working efficiently.

Zhuang Qiao did not stop him, and said to her daughter with a smile: "When your eldest brother and eldest sister-in-law were dating, outsiders said that your eldest brother had a unique vision, because your eldest sister-in-law did not like music, chess, calligraphy and painting since she was a child, and she only liked to go into the kitchen...

When they got married, Miao's parents were so happy that they kept it to themselves until your eldest nephew was born before telling us, saying that they were really afraid that your eldest sister-in-law would be a big bummer.

What kind of cook can't we find for a family like ours? Which family of equal status would marry a woman who knows nothing about elegant things except cooking?

They were all prepared for their daughters to not get married or to marry into poor families, but they didn't expect your sister-in-law to be lucky enough to meet your brother...

If you ask me, it's your eldest brother who's lucky. He's had a bad stomach since he was a child, and when he grew up he was busy working all day and rarely had meals on time. If it weren't for your eldest sister-in-law taking good care of him, our old family might have had a stubborn son who died young!"

Qin Yunxi covered her mouth and laughed, "My sister-in-law's parents are just being modest. Look at the people around us. They can't even get into a good university. They have to rely on their family's money to go abroad to get a degree. There are very few people like my sister-in-law who can get into the top domestic universities on their own. Isn't this good enough?"

Miao Jin is already 30 years old and a mother of three children. She felt a little embarrassed when the mother and daughter said that, and a blush spread across her pale face.

While we were chatting and laughing, my second uncle and his family came over and they also moved their chairs over.

There is no way around it. In the end times and with such extreme weather, no one dares to go out and take risks just for the sake of a little enjoyment.

When there were more people, the two door gods, Eleven and Thirteen, could no longer sit still. They went into the kitchen and "invited" all the women out, and started stir-frying the ingredients they had prepared.

By the time all the food was ready, several family members who were working came back.

The two small tables naturally could not accommodate more than thirty people. Eleven and Thirteen had not planned to sit at the table and had taken out their rice bowls early. Several large families followed suit and prepared a rice bowl for their grandchildren and unmarried children.

Wen Yanbei was the distinguished guest, Qin Yunxi was the most favored junior who had just returned to Kyoto, so they shared a seat with the elders, and the other married brothers, sisters-in-law, and sisters and brothers-in-law also filled the table.

Perhaps it had been a long time since they had eaten such a rich and unlimited meal, so no one had time to talk or reminisce. They all concentrated on eating carefully. They couldn't be said to be wolfing down the food, but they definitely ate quite fast.
