Chapter 70:
Lu Yu.
Lin Ling vaguely felt that she had heard this name before, but she couldn't remember it for a while, so let it be. Anyway, the memories in the last days are not good, so she didn't need to think about it. Of course, she didn't think about it very much.
"Lin Ling." Lin Ling smiled at Lu Yu, making a formal and simple self-introduction.
Lu Yu nodded, he knew it last time.
"Thank you so much these few times." Lin Ling thanked you again, and then took out a few boiled potatoes from the car and handed them to Lu Yu, "I planted these myself, and I'll give them to you to eat on the way."
Lu Yu glanced at Lin Ling and said no.
"Take it, I won't need it when I go back." Seeing that Lu Yu had ordered two piglets for her, Lin Ling insisted on handing the potatoes to Lu Yu, "Is it a thank you for the piglets?"
Lu Yu looked at the potatoes and said, "It's a bit thin."
Lin Ling pursed her lower lip, "I'll fill it up when there's pork in the future."
Lu Yu accepted the potatoes, nodded his head, pressed the tip of his tongue against his teeth, and said after a pause, "The seeds brought back this time are enough for you to plant."
Lin Ling understood the subtext of the other party, and asked her to avoid going to the river, causing troubles, and not causing trouble to the safe zone. She gritted her teeth and hummed, "It should be enough."
Lu Yu didn't think Lin Ling was a quiet person, but he didn't say much, just nodded, then turned and got into the car, "Let's go."
Lin Ling knew that the words were addressed to her. She opened the door and got into the car, followed by the two cars. The two cars were not far apart, and after driving for two hours, they arrived on the asphalt road. Drove in different directions.
Lin Ling looked at the car looking in another direction through the rearview mirror. The speed was extremely fast, and it disappeared in the blink of an eye. It completely disappeared like a snail crawling just now.
After parting, Lin Ling continued to drive the super tall car unsteadily towards the village. All the way through the uninhabited area, near the village full of small saplings before the battery ran out.
Xia Mo and Brother Chou, who were watering the wall, heard the sound of a car outside the wall, "Is my sister back?"
Brother Chou smelled it: it was she who came back.
"Boss is back? I'll go and have a look." The starling who had been taking care of the baby impatiently flapped his wings and crossed the wall, and flew in the direction of the car with all his heart.
Chun Mian and the other chicken cubs looked up at the starling who was flying away, and tried their best to fan the meaty wings, trying to fly out of the fence, but they couldn't do it no matter how they fanned it, instead it made the ugly brother stick out his tongue, wanting to gnaw on it. .
Chun Mian noticed Brother Chou's wishful thinking, opened his mouth and sprayed a small fireball at Brother Chou: "Look at me again, I will burn you to death."
Brother Chou didn't dodge, and looked at the sporadic small flames with disdain, raised his front paw to press the flames out, and then opened his mouth wide to approach Chun Mian.
Chun Mian was so frightened that she turned her head and ran away, at the same time calling out to the mynah who was flying away: Mom, help me, the strange uncle wants to eat me!
Where did the starling hear Chun Mian's cry for help, it was happily running towards Lin Ling's car, "Boss, you're back."
Lin Ling looked at the dog-legged starling: "What evil thoughts are you holding back?"
"I just miss you." Mynah called briskly, "You're not at home, I didn't sleep well last night."
"Don't pretend to me." Lin Ling saw that the starling had been staring at the co-pilot's closed eyes and rested on the chicken ancestor, "Are you annoyed by the little chicken?"
Starling was so startled that he almost fell under the car, "Boss, how do you know?"
Lin Ling snorted, could she not know?
Ever since I raised Chunmian, mynah has been very irritable all day long. Yesterday I asked him to take care of a group of chicks. It must have been driven crazy by the noise, otherwise it wouldn't have come out in a hurry.
The starling landed on the car window and began to complain to Lin Ling: "Boss, you don't know how noisy Chunmian is, I really don't want to keep them anymore..."
Lin Ling glanced at the naughty starling, "Eat it if you don't want to raise it."
Starling was stunned for a moment, "It's not good to just eat it like this?"
"You also know it's not good?" Lin Ling said to the starling in a deep voice: "You have raised it and don't want to raise it anymore. You just chatter here all day, do you want to be beaten?"
Xiaolu climbed up the car window: Butt itch?
The starling quickly said no, turned around and flew away.
Xiaolu put her hands on her hips angrily: Chunmian is so cute, why doesn't the starling like it?
Lin Ling said lightly, "Probably because it's not my own."
Before the end of the world, we often see news of abandonment. For example, the stepmother doesn't like the ex-wife's child, so she encourages the husband to send the child away. There are also some people who have never had children, and then adopted a child and then had a biological child, and then abandoned the child.
Little Green put her hands on her hips in disgust: If it dares to abandon Chunmian, I will beat it.
Lin Ling: "It doesn't feed it, you feed it."
Xiaolu immediately shook her head, Chunmian is too stupid to study, let the starling continue to take care of her.
It secretly made up its mind that it must continue to raise the mynah, or it would be the one who was mad at it.
Lin Ling drove the car into the fence. After returning to the yard, Xia Mo and Brother Chou immediately surrounded him and asked with concern, "Why did you come back only now?"
"Something happened and I was delayed all night." Lin Ling looked at the blue-gray under Xia Mo's eyelids, "Waiting for me last night?"
Lin Ling didn't come back last night, Xia Mo was always worried, and wanted to come out to look for it, but he remembered what she told her before she left, not to leave the area inside the wall, so he didn't sleep well all night after tossing and turning.
But Xia Mo was embarrassed to say it, "I just didn't sleep well."
The little boy was thin-skinned, so he was embarrassed to admit it, so Lin Ling smiled and said nothing.
Xia Mo asked again: "Why did you come back so late?"
Lin Ling didn't elaborate, "I've been delayed by something."
Brother Chou leaned closer to Lin Ling's shoes and smelled them: there was a **** smell.
Xia Mo and Ba Ge looked at Lin Ling one after another, and asked worriedly, "Are you injured?"
"No." Lin Ling glanced at Xiaolu in disgust, it must have rubbed against her.
Xiaolu dodged to the side guiltily, completely refusing to admit that it was the one who rubbed it: you accidentally stepped on it yourself.
Lin Ling said to Xiaolu, then looked at Xia Mo, stretched out his hand and rubbed his head: "It's okay, don't worry."
Xia Mo didn't avoid Lin Ling's touch, blushing a little, "I just asked."
"Yes, I know." Lin Ling smiled, she was such an awkward child.
Lin Ling took a sip of water, and then began to move the seeds. When she finished moving all the seeds into the house, she saw Xiaolu standing on the dining table, talking vividly to Xia Mo and the others about what happened last night.
Xia Mo clenched her fists after listening, "Just let them go like this?"
Xiaolu jumped out and said: I skewered their bones into skewers!
The two tried to escape in the middle of the night yesterday, and Xiaolu directly strung their feet into a string.
Xia Mo was stunned for a moment, and whispered: "That's too cheap for them."
Brother Chou barked, and echoed: If it were me, I would have torn them to pieces!
Mynah said the same thing: "If it were me, I would definitely peck their eyes out."
Chun Mian directly sprayed out a small fireball: Mom was right.
Starling wanted to correct Chunmian's name, but he didn't listen to it after saying it. After thinking about it, forget it, and acquiesced in this name.
"Boss, you should have brought me with you yesterday, and I'll peck their eyes blind for you."
"Just take good care of your son." Lin Ling has no hope for myna. Except for a sharp mouth that can adjust the atmosphere, other abilities are not outstanding enough. Compared with them at the end of Xia, myna is really useless .
"Boss..." The despised starling pretended to be sad, and wanted to ask for a hug and comfort.
"Don't disgust me." Lin Ling pushed the starling away, and took out the sour dates, "This is the fruit I picked in the forest, I'll give you a taste."
"Fruit?" Mo Xia's eyes lit up, "Is it the kind of fruit we grow outside our yard?"
"No." Lin Ling put the wild jujube on the table, "You can see the points."
Xia Mo counted the jujubes on the table: "There are ten in total, we will share them equally..."
"I've already eaten, so you don't need to share it with me." Lin Ling, who was so soured that she almost lost her teeth, turned and left the room, while Xiaolu stayed in the room maliciously, ready to see everyone cry from being soured.
Brother Chou sniffed the jujube, and silently took two steps back.
Xia Mo didn't notice anything unusual, so he picked up a wild jujube and bit it down. After taking a bite, a sour smell hit his forehead, so sour that he almost burst into tears.
The second starling who ate jujubes was so sour that he jumped his feet: "It's so sour..."
Xiaolu saw that everyone was so sour, she fell down on the table laughing: look at your stupid looks! deserve it.
Xia Mo was so sour that tears came out, and she said to Lin Ling in a coquettish tone: "It's so sour..."
"Eating more is good for your health." Lin Ling smiled and said to Xia Mo: "Supplement nutrition and increase resistance."
Hearing this, Xia Mo silently took another bite of the jujube that he wanted to throw away, and it was so sour that his tears flowed out again.
Lin Ling felt his teeth sore looking at it: "If you can't eat it, don't eat it."
At the end of Xia, he didn't listen to Lin Ling's words. Instead, he ate all the jujubes seriously. He had to eat more and become stronger so that he could help his sister.
"Don't force yourself." Lin Ling turned around and continued to work. First, he took the picked peppers to the yard to dry. The smell of peppers was very strong and a bit pungent.
Mynah and Ugly, who were not used to the smell, sneezed several times one after another, "Poisonous?"
"It's the seasoning. When there is meat in the future, you can use it together with the dried peppers to increase the flavor." Lin Ling spread the peppercorns flat and dried them, and cleaned the leaves and debris inside.
After drying, it was still early. Lin Ling took the roots of the pepper trees he dug up to the mountain to plant them. The fruit rhizomes were planted in the open space around the yard. "Water these carefully and grow up earlier, so we can eat wild fruits earlier."
At the end of Xia, he asked with some fear: "Is it not sour?"
Lin Ling smiled and said, "These are all sweet."
Xia Mo pursed her lips and smiled: "Then I will come to see them every day."
"Just don't drown." After Lin Ling finished her work, it was almost dark. She went to the vegetable field and picked two handfuls of cowpeas that had begun to flood and went back to the house. She picked them up and washed them. Once washed, cooked, add a little salt, stir and eat.
Because he is a vegetarian, the chicken ancestor was very dissatisfied, and ran to pull an egg from the chicken coop without tasting it, and hid for another meal.
The starling was very jealous, and encouraged Chunmian to steal one of his brothers to give Dad an extra meal. But Chunmian was devoting herself to eating the beans in the pods, ignoring her father at all.
The starling stomped his feet angrily: "Unfilial son!"
This scene happened every day. Lin Ling and Xia Mo were no strangers to it. They continued to eat without raising their heads.
After class and watching TV, it was already 9 o'clock in the evening. After Lin Ling replaced the battery of the incubator, he went upstairs to rest.
Lying on the bed, she picked up her mobile phone and saw a notice in the information center about the two women murdering people and stealing their identities and lands. The safety zone reminded everyone to be careful to avoid encountering criminals.
"Lu Yu's movements are quite fast." Lin Ling said with emotion after reading the report.
Xiaolu shook the leaves: Lu Yu?
Lin Ling hummed, "That's the person I met today."
Xiaolu didn't say anything, she shrank into the quilt.
"I think I've heard his name somewhere before." Lin Ling really couldn't remember, she turned to Xiaolu and asked, "Xiaolu, do you know?"
Xiaolu shook the leaves: I don't know.
"Really?" Lin Ling glanced at Xiaolu suspiciously, "I really haven't heard of it?"
