In the end of the world, we will form a team with the country, and we will not be tired with the red

Ning Ke slept for a full twenty hours, and when she woke up, her stomach was rumbling.

I haven't eaten barbecue for a long time. I put the oven on the iron stove to preheat it, took out a piece of good venison, and spread some seasoning on it to let it marinate.

I took this opportunity to make a big bowl of steamed eggs for Nan Qiao. The little girl thanked me happily with a smile on her face.

The two of them burped after eating and drinking their fill. Ning Ke drank tea and made a video call to Base Director Cui Jianxiong.

After greeting each other, Ning Ke turned the topic to Nan Qiao and introduced the little girl to him.

"No problem, let her come over, she's warmly welcome." This is a precious little girl, can't speak? Then let's learn sign language together.

"I'll have Xueyu send her over~"

"No need to go to so much trouble. Zhan Chengxiao and the others will be passing by your place when they return from their mission the day after tomorrow. Just ask them to bring it back."

"Going on a mission?" Brother Zhan really can't spare a moment, ah!

"Well, I went to collect coal." It was not a secret mission that could not be told, so Cui Jianxiong said it directly.

Ning Ke nodded and said, yes, we have collective heating now.

The two chatted about some new things happening at the base, and then Cui Jianxiong hung up the video call and went about his business.

[Sister, is Uncle Cui a high-ranking official?]

Ning Ke smiled and nodded, "Yes, the highest-ranking officer in the base."

Nan Qiao's expression relaxed when he heard this.

Ning Ke couldn't help but be curious when he saw her expression, "What's wrong? Are you nervous?"

Nan Qiao shook her head and smiled, "No."

Seeing her happy expression, Ning Ke didn't ask any more questions.

The winter season has only been going on for nearly two months, so there is still a long way to go.

Just as she was lost in thought, a chubby little fat cat suddenly jumped onto her body. Seeing its cute appearance, Ning Ke softened her eyebrows and nodded its little head.

"Jixiang, you're going to become fat as a ball."

[Meow~] The tender little baby voice touched Ning Ke's heart. She couldn't help but hold its round little head with both hands and kissed it.

The black cat cub Jixiang made a purring sound in his throat with joy, and the whole cat lay directly on Ning Ke and refused to move.

Lying on the comfortable lazy sofa, stroking little Jixiang's soft fur with one hand, I daydream and empty my mind.

The bracelet suddenly rang at this moment. "Uncle Cui?" Didn't he just die?

"Girl, I forgot to remind you, tomorrow is New Year's Eve, remember to make yourself something delicious, Happy New Year."

Ning Ke hung up the video call in a daze.

Are you celebrating the Chinese New Year?

Since the end of the world, she has forgotten all the festivals.

Looking at the cubs playing in the cabin, it was warm and cozy inside the cabin despite the heavy snow falling outside.

Gently caressing the kitten brings good luck, so what does it matter whether it’s the New Year or not?

A few cubs were playing together with their heads touching, and from time to time, you could hear them making "wuuuuuuu" sounds, and no one knew what they were doing.

The tiger cub Zhuangzhuang and the sable Taotao followed the adult beasts out to patrol the territory, and the rest of the cubs were with Ning Ke.

Ning Ke put the sleeping cat Jixiang on the bed and got up to put on thermal clothes and fur coat.

Fu Ya was facing Ning Ke, and she immediately became alert when she saw her movements.

【Sister, let’s go together! 】

Fu Ya shouted, shifting all the cubs' attention to Ning Ke.

"Let's go! We have to go out and work."

She really has no interest in celebrating the Chinese New Year. In her opinion, every day in her life nowadays is just like celebrating the Chinese New Year.

Compared to living happily with her friends, she prefers the latter.

She had previously wanted to dig a trench next to her house, following her neighbor's example, to facilitate drainage when the rainy season came.

The ground is now frozen hard and digging trenches is very troublesome, but there is no other way, going out to sea to fish is imperative.

As the temperature continues to drop, the seawater temperature can no longer be maintained, and the sea surface will enter a freezing period in the middle and late cold season.

Now her anxiety was completely relieved, and with this supply, she would have no problem getting through this cold season.

Bringing the little ones outside, the biting cold wind blew, and Ning Ke looked at the little ones with squinting eyes with some worry.

"Is it cold?"

[Not cold~] Fu Ya shook her head and looked at the few people behind her.

"A little bit, I'm not afraid." Meng Meng, the golden monkey cub, said, holding up one hand, holding Guo Guo in the other.

Ning Ke shivered and looked at their thick hair with envy. The cold wind blew silkily, and each cub looked at her quietly with thick fur, which made her heart melt.

After sending Nanqiao to the big house, I asked her and Mengmeng and the others to peel chestnut thorns in the house.

She waved her arms and took Fu Ya and the others to the edge of the residential area to check the terrain. Because of the presence of the cargo ship, she had to go around a big circle. It was a big project.

Not only is the project huge, but the ground beneath the snow is full of roots, making it difficult to work. It seems that her area is not suitable for large-scale trench digging.

The reason she chose this place to build the house was because of its high terrain. Now she just has to wait for the temperature to rise and the soil to thaw, and then she can dig a drainage ditch.

Looking at the direction of the river below, I don’t know where it flows to.

The plan to dig a trench was ruined, so I returned to the big house and hung my coat by the iron stove to dry.

Nan Qiao and Meng Meng had worked hard to peel a lot of large chestnuts, and the shells had piled up in a big pile. When Ning Ke saw it, she simply burned it as firewood.

Looking at Nan Qiao who was working seriously, Ning Ke took out the ingredients from the space and started to make meat patties for her. She could just put them on the fire and roast them and eat them.

Nan Qiao looked at her busy sister and smiled happily. She must grow up quickly.

The big meat patties in the oven gave off a rich meaty aroma, and even Huanhuan, the red panda who eats raw food, came over shyly to ask for one.

Ning Ke has always been generous to the furry children, and would roast the food and feed it to them.

Nan Qiao sat with a few little kids, happily munching on meat patties, their little heads nodding constantly.

The large chestnuts on top of the oven also began to emit fragrance due to the heat.

Until the surface cracked with a snap, and the sweet smell spread out, making the smell make people drool.

Nut lovers waited by the oven with sparkling eyes, urging us to eat them. "Sister, it smells so good, can we eat it now?"

"It's done, be careful of the heat." Ning Ke was busy making meat patties without even raising her head.

I looked at the time and it was already two o'clock in the afternoon. Why haven't Dabao and the others come back yet?

Xueyu, who followed me out, didn't reply at all. Should be okay, right?

[Sister, something bad has happened.]

Bang~ Ning Ke dropped the basin in his hand and quickly ran to the door and opened it.

[Sister, hurry up, they're all going crazy.] The sable Taotao screamed with messy fur, and its claws kept pointing in one direction.

Ning Ke rushed into the house and started to put on her clothes. "Nan Qiao, you stay in the house and wait for me to come back. Meng Meng, the three of you stay too."

The little girl pursed her lips and nodded, [Sister~]

"Don't be afraid, we will be back soon." Ning Ke saw that the little girl's face was not right, and time was running out so he turned around and left without giving her any more instructions.
