Chapter 761 Hopeless City (29)
When the old man walked in, he happened to see Qinhua sitting by the stove, chewing something carefully in her mouth. When he saw the thing in her hand, the old man grinned, walked up slowly, and leaned directly beside Qinhua. Just sat on the ground.
"What a good thing, give me a taste."
Qinhua glanced at him, then carefully picked up a small piece.
"Open your mouth."
The old man opened his mouth, and Qinhua threw the candy directly in.
The sweetness in his mouth was very strong and fragrant. The old man squinted his eyes and tasted it vigorously.
"I have never eaten such good food. It is not included in the supplies this year. Where did Zhou Ye come from?"
After Qinhua ate two pieces, she carefully rewrapped the bag and put it in the corner next to the stove again.
"You don't care where the child's thoughts come from. Come here and sweep up the sawdust on the ground."
The old man muttered and stood up. Even though he could no longer straighten his back, he would still try to hold his head high and sweep hard with the broom.
"You old woman loves cleanliness so much. How can you keep the place next to the stove as clean as the bed? You will torment me."
Qinhua glanced at him.
"I haven't disliked you for being dirty, but you first complained that I love to be clean. If I weren't supervising you every day, you would just sleep in your pig's nest."
"I sleep comfortably in the pig's nest..."
The old man said this in his heart, because Qinhua has a bad temper and will shed tears sadly when she is angry. The old man can't stand her being angry, and he doesn't like to see her tears, so he stays silent at such times and casually She was right to be sarcastic.
Looking at Daqi who was silent, Qinhua calmed down, her eyes soft and bright.
"I've never eaten that candy before, but the taste is familiar, as if I've been thinking about it for a long time." The old man opened his mouth without raising his head.
"Then I'll let you eat it every day."
"Then tell me, how do you let me eat this every day?"
The old man raised his head and looked at her seriously.
"When I go out with the supply team next year, I will bring you back candies. Bring more so that you can eat them all and lose all your teeth!"
Qinhua burst into laughter, and her snow-white hair trembled. Although she was a little pessimistic in her bones, the old man Da Qi could always make her forget about it and focus entirely on him.
The old couple would also have endless things to talk about. After cleaning the kitchen, the old man would take Qinhua out for a walk.
Life goes by like this day by day. If it weren't for the once-a-year search for supplies, everyone might not realize the passage of time.
——
A new round of searching for supplies has begun, and many people will be waiting and watching at the inner edge of the center.
Those evil raccoon dogs seemed to know that someone would come out today, and surrounded the edge one by one. They all had a pair of blood-red eyes, and had fangs and claws that could easily tear humans apart. They were crawling on the ground. At times, their snow-white fur almost blends into the ground.
It will pop out from corners where you don't expect it, and take away a person unexpectedly, so fast that you don't even have time to call for help.
Therefore, it is true that supplies are obtained in exchange for lives.
Everyone waited until dark and stayed up all night to continue hoping. When the sky gradually became brighter the next day, the people from the supply team at Hazy Place finally arrived.
People who are waiting can't wait to crane their necks to look for them. If they can't see the person they want to see, even a man can't help but get red-eyed.
