Wasteland Farming, Manual for Raising Human Cubs

Chapter 119 Lin Daiyu

Zhao Gang didn't care whether the new tenants could remember everything. After explaining everything he could in one breath, he looked at the faces of the two families one by one, "Do you have any questions?"

Wang Xiang raised his hand weakly.

Zhao Gang gestured to him.

Wang Xiang asked, "Who is Peter Pan?"

Zhao Xiaoxiu happily responded: "My fish!"

Wang Xiang obviously didn't quite understand and looked stunned.

Zhao Gang specifically explained: "A two-meter-long giant mutant floating fish, Xiaoxiu's pet."

Everyone:! ! !
Looking at the evolved macaque hugging Zhao Xiaoxiu, the two new families looked at each other in shock.

What kind of new territory had they come to?

Is this still the catastrophe world they are familiar with?
If so, why can humans, mutated suspended fish and evolved macaques get along so harmoniously in this three hundred acres of territory?

"It's getting late, so you should hurry up and pack up. If you need to charge your phone, you can come to my doorstep and pay for it." After Zhao Gang gave the instructions, he turned around and went home.

Zhao Xiaoxiu refused to leave and stayed with Sister Monkey.

Although they heard from the father and daughter that this evolved macaque would not hurt people, Qiu Bai and others were still afraid of the monkey sister. They greeted Zhao Xiaoxiu politely, put down their bags, and started looking at houses.

Snow was falling from the sky, floating down like cotton wool, and soon the luggage that everyone had placed on the ground was covered with a layer of white snow.

Grandpa Jiang stayed to look after his granddaughter and the luggage. The grandfather and grandson were five meters away from Zhao Xiaoxiu. They looked as if they wanted to get some information but were hesitant.

Zhao Xiaoxiu felt warm in Sister Monkey's arms and she didn't have to go down to the ground to walk on the snow. She felt very comfortable.

In the end, Liu Miaomiao couldn't control herself, and under her grandfather's vigilant gaze, she carefully walked on the snow and approached Zhao Xiaoxiu.

"What do you want to do?" Zhao Xiaoxiu asked immediately.

She was very happy to see that although Liu Miaomiao was a little afraid of Sister Monkey, she still took the initiative to approach her.

But it didn't show on his face.

Liu Miaomiao was just curious. She quickly glanced at Sister Monkey and asked in a low voice, "Can it understand human speech?"

"Of course." Zhao Xiaoxiu replied.

Liu Miaomiao: "If I ask it not to eat me, my parents and my grandpa, will it agree?"

Zhao Xiaoxiu patted Monkey Sister’s chest and said, “Someone is asking you a question, answer it quickly.”

Sister Monkey bared her lips and let out a low growl intentionally to scare the child. Suddenly, she bent down and looked down at Liu Miaomiao with a ferocious expression.

Liu Miaomiao was so frightened that her whole body trembled and she almost screamed. She quickly raised her hands to cover her mouth, but still lost her balance and tripped over the snow, sitting down on the fluffy snow.

Zhao Xiaoxiu and his daughter had not had time to clean up the snow here, which had accumulated for a week and was already very thick.

Liu Miaomiao cried out "Ouch!" and fell down. The thick snow almost buried her.

Grandpa Jiang was so frightened that he was about to rush over.

Sister Monkey reached out her long arms and pulled Liu Miaomiao out of the snow, placing her steadily on the solid ground stepped on by the adults.

"Roar, roar, roar!" Sister Monkey's prank succeeded and she roared three times towards the sky.

Zhao Xiaoxiu glared at it, and the monkey's smug laughter subsided.

"Are you okay?" Zhao Xiaoxiu slipped down from Sister Monkey's arms and asked while standing in front of Liu Miaomiao.

The young lady seemed to be frightened, her eyes were red, and there was a drop of water on her curled eyelashes, and it was unclear whether it was tears from fear or melted snow.

Zhao Xiaoxiu waited for several seconds before she reacted. She looked blankly at the tall Monkey Sister, then at Zhao Xiaoxiu who was slightly shorter than her. Her pale face suddenly flushed and she laughed. "Hehe, hehehe" Liu Miaomiao patted the snow off her body and couldn't help laughing louder and louder.

Zhao Xiaoxiu chuckled as if her funny spot had been hit, and then she started laughing out loud.

The two little girls smiled at each other for a long time before they stopped laughing.

Zhao Xiaoxiu took Liu Miaomiao's hand, one was warm and the other was cold. But they soon became warm together.

"Cough cough cough!" Liu Miaomiao suddenly started coughing.

Grandpa Jiang hurried forward, wrapped his granddaughter's thin blanket tighter, and used his sleeves to block the two little girls to prevent his saliva from flying onto Zhao Xiaoxiu's face.

Liu Miaomiao also quickly let go of Zhao Xiaoxiu's hand and turned her head to the side to cough.

"Grandpa Jiang, what's wrong with Sister Miaomiao?" Zhao Xiaoxiu asked puzzledly.

Grandpa Jiang sighed softly, "It's just a cold now, but the essence is that she's in poor health. The doctor said it's not a disease, it's just that her immunity is low, so she's prone to infection. Her body's defenses are also poor, so it's not easy to get well from illness, and it keeps coming back."

But it is much better than those who are missing limbs or have heart and lung problems, and the family feels very fortunate.

Zhao Xiaoxiu was surprised and said, "Isn't that Lin Daiyu?"

After Liu Miaomiao finished coughing, she asked in a hoarse voice, "What is Lin Daiyu?"

Zhao Xiaoxiu: "It's the character in Dream of the Red Chamber."

Grandpa Jiang looked at Zhao Xiaoxiu in surprise. He didn't expect that she, a child born after the disaster, knew about Dream of the Red Chamber.

"What is Dream of the Red Chamber?" Liu Miaomiao looked confused.

Zhao Xiaoxiu patiently explained: "A Dream of Red Mansions is one of the four great classics. It tells the story of jade and magic grass. The mortal that the magic grass reincarnated into is Lin Daiyu."

Liu Miaomiao nodded, saying "Oh", indicating that she had learned something. She then looked at Zhao Xiaoxiu with admiration, "Xiaoxiu, you know a lot!"

"It's okay." The little girl waved her hands, which was enough to fool a child.

Jiang Ning and his wife found a house and came over. They asked their father and daughter to go in first to avoid the snow while they moved the luggage.

"Miaomiao!"

Hearing her mother's call, Liu Miaomiao said to Zhao Xiaoxiu reluctantly: "Can you come and play with me when you are free? Mom never lets me go out."

Zhao Xiaoxiu agreed immediately: "No problem!"

"Let's go." Grandpa Jiang picked up his granddaughter and urged Zhao Xiaoxiu to go home quickly as it was cold outside.

Zhao Xiaoxiu: "Yes, I understand, Grandpa Jiang. I will go back right away."

Although he responded with his mouth, his body showed no intention of going back.

He turned around and jumped into Sister Monkey's arms. The baby and the monkey followed Liu Miaomiao's family, and made sure which room they lived in. After making sure that the little sister had entered the house, they turned around and went home.

"Kosode!"

Suddenly, Liu Miaomiao called from behind.

Zhao Xiaoxiu turned around in surprise and saw a tightly wrapped head sticking out of the window on the second floor of the house.

Zhao Xiaoxiu said seriously, "Go in quickly and close the window. It's cold!"

"Okay." Liu Miaomiao obediently closed the window and retracted her head.

After a while, he secretly showed a pair of eyes and stared out the window.

He saw the man and the monkey slowly walking away in the snow, turning behind other abandoned houses and disappearing from sight. He then withdrew his gaze with regret, got down from the raised bricks, and secretly ran back to the room.
