Scavenging wasteland in the last days: I have fields, cattle and a villa

Their number was three. Their first patrol was in the southern mountains and forests, which happened to be in the direction of Jiang Yuan's house. They started patrolling at six in the morning.

The six people agreed to meet at the door of Jiang Yuan's old house in the evening, and then went home.

It's such a cold day, and it's getting dark after all this trouble, so I'd better go home early and rest.

After receiving the whistle and number, Jiang Yuan went home.

Lin Ran had already prepared dinner.

Hot pot is definitely the most popular dish in winter. You can sit around a small stove and enjoy the steaming hot dishes, which makes you feel satisfied.

"Sister-in-law, you have to go on patrol starting tomorrow. It must be very cold."

Lin Qian felt a little distressed.

But this kind of thing is impossible to do at her age.

She can do nothing but wash dishes, feed rabbits, and clean.

And going out casually will still cause a burden to the family.

Being a kid is so annoying.

"Fortunately, the winter is so long. If you stay at home all the time, mold will develop. Moreover, this is a good opportunity to go out in an open and clear manner to keep track of everyone's movements. Then you don't have to worry about someone suddenly paying attention to our home."

It was cold, but being able to patrol was still a good thing for her.

If nothing else, just relieve your boredom.

"Now that everyone is scared by the gangsters, they won't target us, and with the people below, we won't be afraid no matter how many people come."

Uncle Luo said calmly.

But even though he said this, there was still a touch of sadness in his eyes, and he didn't know why he was worried.

"Sister-in-law, you should be more careful when you go out on patrol and arm yourself with all the equipment we gave you before."

Luo Chong looked worried.

If he didn't want to protect this family, he would definitely go out in his sister-in-law's place.

"Do not worry."

After going through this for so long, she asked herself whether she still had the ability to protect herself.

As long as you meet a human being, there is nothing to be afraid of.

Because she had to get up early, she took a shower and went to bed early. She hid in her bed, held the warm baby in her arms, and read e-books for a while. She didn't close her eyes until she felt sleepy.

Early the next morning.

As soon as she got up, she saw someone busy in the kitchen.

Lin Ran's small body seemed extraordinarily generous. He lit a fire to cook and cooked a bowl of hot noodles for her.

"What do you want to eat, sister-in-law? I'll cook it for you."

Jiang Yuan even saw the shadow of Lin Xiao in him.

Why are all the men in the Lin family so considerate?

"Let's eat dumplings. I'll make dumplings stuffed with cabbage and pork to eat in the afternoon."

I have been eating a lot of hot pot recently and wanted to change my taste.

Lin Ran agreed obediently.

Jiang Yuan ate some noodles, picked up her equipment and went out.

Walking down the hillside, people from their team arrived one after another.

In addition to Aunt Zhu, there is also the little girl from before, named Qiaoyue, who is one year younger than herself.

Then there were three grown men.

They can't be called strong men, they are thin and thin, and they are not as big as Aunt Zhu.

But he is a man at least, and he works as a scavenger all year round. His muscles are very developed, and he looks very resistant to beatings.

Everyone introduced themselves.

The tallest man, nearly 1.76 meters tall, is the eldest of the three men. He is forty-three years old and his name is Li Bo. He is also the strongest one.

The other two are about the same age and height, but one is cheerful and the other is gloomy.

The two are brothers, and now they have a family, each of which is the head of the family.

The cheerful eldest brother Shi Dalang, and the younger brother Shi Ming who is somewhat hesitant.

Although they are both about 1.7 meters tall, they really don't look alike.

One is rough and the other is delicate.

After everyone introduced themselves, there was a brief pause.

"Then how do we start patrolling?"

The southern mountain forest they are responsible for is only two kilometers away in a straight line, but if they take a curved path, they may have to walk five kilometers.

One side is Stone Mountain, and the other end is to the west.

"Then how about we form a team of three, one team going to Stone Mountain, and the other team going to the west?"

They did not dare to go deep into the forest, so they could only stand guard at the boundary between the living area and the scavenging area.

Jiang Yuan's proposal was immediately recognized by everyone.

They left as soon as they could, one group of men and one group of women walked away back to back.

Don't underestimate their group of women, Aunt Zhu is very powerful.

As for Qiao Yue, a ruthless person who dared to bleed to attract wild beasts, apart from being weaker in strength, there was no other problem.

The wind in the morning was really cold.

Jiang Yuan wore a black down jacket that covered her from head to toe, a hat, and gloves. She walked on the ice with the cold wind blowing, huddled in a ball, as if this could keep her body warmer.

The three of them walked in a single file, staring at the quiet forest. There was really not even a ghost.

Fortunately, there was nothing. If someone suddenly appeared, the entire slum would be in chaos.

People say that three women make a show. If this were a peaceful time, wouldn't three women chatter endlessly together?

But the three of them were surprisingly quiet.

He buried his head, put his hands in his sleeves, and bent his waist, like an old man out for a walk.

Jiang Yuan wanted to say a few words at first, but maybe people in this era don't have the habit of chattering, and they don't talk about their own affairs to others.

They were unfamiliar with each other, and the only thing they could chat about was food, but it was no longer the season to find food, so everyone was very wary.

The word 'food' is simply a sensitive word.

So, there was nothing but silence.

God knows, what would it be like to walk for four hours at minus five degrees Celsius?

It’s not cold after walking a lot, but it’s tiring.

When she was tired, she wanted to find a place to sit and rest, but she would get cold as soon as she sat down, so she could only keep active and keep walking.

The process of patrolling was a cycle, going back and forth, round and round, and later she even had the illusion that the ice on the ground was dented by her walking.

Tired and bored.

If it hadn't been for the cold weather, she doubted she could have fallen asleep while walking.

After finally ending her miserable four hours, Jiang Yuan came home and took off her down jacket. She walked to the fireplace and lay down on a chair, not bothering to move from head to toe.

Seeing that she was so tired, Lin Qian didn't bother her, and silently took a blanket to cover her.

"Sister-in-law, you go to sleep for a while while my brother and I make dumplings. I'll call you later."

Seeing Jiang Yuan's lifeless look made her heartbroken.

"it is good."

She squinted her eyes and nodded weakly.

Then he yawned and fell asleep.

As everyone knows, seeing her like this, the whole family felt heartbroken one after another.

As if this is more tiring than scavenging.

In the afternoon, she ate five more dumplings.

Then, under Lin Qian's attentive care, she also soaked her feet before going back to the house to rest.

Her family asked her to rest all the time. There were enough people to do housework and so on, so she didn't need to worry about it.

It's just that Jiang Yuan thought that she couldn't be so decadent.
