Wasteland Farming, Manual for Raising Human Cubs

Chapter 218 Decoration
The idea of ​​letting a human drink her blood only lasted two minutes in Zhao Xiaoxiu's mind before she gave it up.

She ran out of the research base in fear today. Wasn't it because she was worried that she would become a guinea pig?

Do not do to others what you do not want others to do to you. This is what her father had just told her when he told her a horror story a few nights ago.

Zhao Xiaoxiu secretly made up her mind that she would never have such thoughts again.

evening.

Zhao Xiaoxiu had just finished inspecting her own territory on Peter Pan and when her feet had just set foot on solid ground, Yang Mei arrived.

The big and the small looked at each other and said nothing.

But a tacit understanding grew in the hearts of both of them.

Yang Mei seemed much calmer than she had been in the morning. After a moment of silence, she took the initiative to say, "The direction of vaccine research and development has been clarified."

Zhao Xiaoxiu said generously: "Auntie, you can come and pick flowers anytime, but don't hurt the Green Fairy."

"Okay." Yang Mei agreed solemnly.

She didn't come here specifically to pick flowers, but just to tell Zhao Xiaoxiu: "Regarding what happened between District B and the Green Field Alliance, I will mediate."

Zhao Xiaoxiu: "Thank you, Auntie."

Yang Mei smiled politely but awkwardly, asked her assistant to carefully pick a basket of flowers, and left.

As soon as they left, Zhao Gang and his two companions who had gone out to pull bricks and tiles came back, and the yard became bustling with activity.

Everyone worked together to unload the bricks and tiles that had been brought back and stacked them neatly in the open space between the two houses.

Zhao Xiaoxiu took advantage of every opportunity to hand her father a handkerchief to wipe his sweat and bring him some sugar water. She ran around in the yard, making the two Meng brothers very envious.

"I really want to have a baby of my own." Meng Er leaned against the brick wall and said with emotion.

Granny Meng slapped him on the head and said, "Don't just talk about it. If you want a child, take action and find a partner!"

Meng Er yelled, jumped up on the spot, dodged his mother's second slap, looked towards the north with a bit of grievance, and muttered:

"It's not easy to find a partner. The person you like may not like you, and the person who likes you may not like you. It's all about fate. How can you find someone if your fate hasn't arrived yet?"

Granny Meng rolled her eyes at him and said, "Stop talking nonsense and do more work."

Meng Er was still muttering, "Let's take a step back and say that even if we were destined to be together, we wouldn't be able to have a baby as cute as Xiaoxiu."

This was the truth, and Granny Meng nodded in agreement. She turned around, raised her eyebrows, and shouted fiercely, "Go to work!"

Meng Er wanted to cry but had no tears. He had been working on breaking bricks and tiles all day, and couldn't he even take a break now?

Besides, isn’t there a little baby?
Grandma Meng didn't care about this. She glared at Meng Er and he immediately continued to move bricks obediently.

There is strength in numbers. After a short while, all the bricks and tiles were unloaded and stacked into squares.

Zhao Gang estimated that it would not only be enough to reinforce the Meng family's bungalow, but would also leave enough space for a brick house of about 20 square meters.

"Dad, let's build a small store at the entrance of the territory!" Zhao Xiaoxiu suggested, raising his hand.

Several adults said, "Hey!" and "That's a good suggestion, Xiaoxiu."

Of course Zhao Gang responded promptly and added a plan to build a convenience store to the planning drawings.

The adults discussed the steps for house renovation, and the next morning, the renovation of the two houses officially began. Meng Er drove to Taoyuan Base before dawn to pick up Yin Lan and bring her to the territory.

When Zhao Xiaoxiu got up in the morning, Zhao Gang was already at home scraping the wall with his little baby.

All the walls that were not cleaned before were scraped off, then a cement net was hung and cement was brushed all over the house, and finally white paint was applied.

Zhao Gang also planned to lay tiles on the ground. He would use old tiles knocked down from other abandoned houses. They were of varying sizes and colors.

But he already had a series of suitable floor tile paintings in his mind.

The bedroom on the second floor will be finished last, so Zhao Xiaoxiu doesn’t have to move for the time being.

Although they couldn't let the tentacles out to work, with Xiwa's help and Zhao Gang's help, the two of them could clean the wall in a whole day.

The next day, Xiwa mixed the cement while Zhao Gang started laying tiles by himself.

He didn't need to make any drafts. It was as if there was an automatic program in his mind. He picked up a tile and put it anywhere. Slowly, a special rotating pattern appeared on the floor of the lobby on the first floor.

Zhao Xiaoxiu felt that it looked like a rotating planet, with colorful halos against the dark background, and it was as beautiful as a work of art.

When the floor tiles in the hall were finished, Xiwa couldn't believe her eyes. Such a beautiful and unique pattern was laid out by Zhao Gang at random.

When the mother and son of the Meng family heard Xiwa's exclamation, they came to watch. The three of them were stunned and admired Zhao Gang's artistic attainments.

There was no need to lay tiles in other rooms on the first floor. Just pour a new layer of cement and level the floor.

After cleaning the first floor, Zhao Gang began to lay tiles in the rooms on the second floor.

The living room is covered with a blooming sunflower with orange and yellow as the main colors. Zhao Xiaoxiu feels that it is very similar to Van Gogh's sunflower, but the sunflower made by her father looks brighter and more brilliant.

In the bedroom, various dark-colored tile fragments are used as the background, with various colorful broken tiles scattered around. The spacing, size, and distribution position all look as if they were carefully designed.

Zhao Xiaoxiu can stare at it all day long without getting tired of it. She really likes the floor in her bedroom!

There are two empty rooms on the second floor, one of which is reserved for Sister Monkey as her nest.

This room simply had a cement floor, and the vacant room was the same, which made Sister Monkey very depressed and she was angry all day long.

It wants nice looking floors too!
Unfortunately, it’s not that Zhao Gang doesn’t want to do it, but that all the tile fragments have been used up.

In the end, it was Zhao Xiaoxiu who pestered Zhao Gang to help hand-paint a lifelike forest on the white wall. Only then did Monkey Sister happily carry her mattress and decide to settle down here.

There are also many paintings in Zhao Xiaoxiu's room. Zhao Gang painted a nebula that she had never seen on the ceiling. When she looked up, she had a wonderful feeling of being in space.

It was during the house renovation that Zhao Xiaoxiu learned that her father was so good at painting.

Moreover, the things he drew were things she had never seen before, and her eyes were full of stars when she looked at her father.

Zhao Gang felt very comfortable with the admiration in the cub's eyes. While working, he hummed a beautiful tune that he had learned from somewhere.

It took a full half month and the decoration work of Zhao Xiaoxiu's house was completed perfectly.

The outside of the house looks pretty much the same as before, but the inside has changed a lot.

The gray walls were all painted white, and the living room and master bedroom were covered with beautiful floors that looked like works of art.

The rest of the rooms were also paved with cement, the broken windows were replaced with complete window frames and glass, and curtains were hung.

Being in it, it feels like going back to the time before the disaster, it is bright and comfortable.
