Wasteland Farming, Manual for Raising Human Cubs

Chapter 75 Is your dad still alive?

Zhao Xiaoxiu was a little surprised and a little wary of the arrival of Yang Mei and her son.

Yang Mei is from the Biological Company and nominally belongs to the Hope Base, but in reality the Biological Company has always been above the five major bases and has absolute say.

If a person like this suddenly arrives and you say she just comes here to hang out, even a fool wouldn't believe it.

Yang Mei obviously knew that her sudden visit would make people nervous, but she had already thought of an excuse.

"The base attaches great importance to the lords in the planting area. When they heard that something happened here, they sent us here to investigate."

As Yang Mei spoke, she looked down at Youyou who was holding her hand, "It just so happens that Youyou also wants to play with Xiaoxiu, so I'll drop him off on the way. I hope I didn't disturb you."

"Zhao Xiaoxiu, I brought you some delicious food." Youyou looked at Zhao Xiaoxiu in the territory expectantly and asked, "Is this large territory all yours?"

Zhao Xiaoxiu nodded. Although she was not happy about Yang Mei's arrival, she couldn't help but smile when she saw Youyou.

She pulled Zhao Gang's pants, and Zhao Gang sighed helplessly, nodding slightly to the mother and son outside, indicating that they could enter the territory.

Yang Mei didn't come in, but just let go of her son's hand and told him: "Then you play with Xiaoxiu here first, and I'll pick you up later when mom is done."

Youyou was more than happy to do so. He agreed and immediately put on his small schoolbag and ran towards Zhao Xiaoxiu.

"Hello, Uncle Zhao!" Youyou greeted Zhao Gang first, then turned around and smiled at Zhao Xiaoxiu.

Zhao Xiaoxiu waved her hand, picked up her small hoe and motioned Youyou to follow her. The two little guys talked and laughed as they walked towards the house.

Yang Mei's eyes were always on the two of them, or to be more precise, on Zhao Xiaoxiu.

Looking at Zhao Xiaoxiu, who looked like an ordinary little girl and was happy to see her friends, she felt inexplicably excited, and the fingers hanging by her side trembled slightly uncontrollably.

Yang Mei took a deep breath, curled her fingers into fists, suppressed the trembling in her heart, pretended nothing happened, gave Zhao Gang a pleading smile, turned around, got into the car and left.

The truck drove towards the patrol station. Zhao Gang watched it all the way, but his eyes were unfocused.

He replayed Yang Mei's every move in his mind over and over again. His powerful perception told him that this woman named Yang Mei seemed to have misunderstood something.

But it doesn't matter, the protection information has long been engraved into the DNA. Even if the subject is mistaken, anyone who sees it will be pious to "God".

Zhao Gang could be sure that Yang Mei, the discoverer, would not reveal any information about herself and the cub.

Not only will it not be exposed, with her fanatical attitude towards science, before she has thoroughly studied this new discovery, she will never allow anyone to discover the existence of "God" before her and understand Him better than her.

Zhao Gang went home feeling relieved.

Youyou remembered Zhao Xiaoxiu's previous instructions, and the two guards responsible for taking care of him were left outside the territory.

The two looked at the simple self-built building with lights on not far away, feeling puzzled.

They didn't understand where the director got the trust from to leave his own son alone in someone else's home.

It wouldn't be a big deal if they knew each other, but this father and daughter look so weird and they don't look like they would take care of a child.

The two were worried, but they could only stand outside the territory and keep an eye on the situation in the self-built building to prevent any accidents.

The laughter of children could be heard from time to time.

The two guards looked at each other, not knowing what to be happy about in a self-built building in a wasteland.

Youyou followed Zhao Xiaoxiu to tour upstairs and downstairs. The self-built house that had never been seen before brought the child a lot of fun of exploration, and everything he saw was curious.

Zhao Xiaoxiu pointed to the bedroom and said that this was her territory, and Youyou immediately gave her an envious look.

Zhao Xiaoxiu took him to the kitchen to experience the faucet, and Youyou cooperated very well and shouted "Wow wow". "Zhao Xiaoxiu, your house is so big and fun, much bigger than my mom's house. My mom's house doesn't have any faucets that can be turned on, they are all induction."

Youyou said with great anticipation: "It would be great if my mom's house also had a faucet that can be turned on."

For a moment, Zhao Xiaoxiu couldn't tell whether this boy was showing off or was really naive.

"correct!"

The two came to the tool room from the kitchen, and Youyou suddenly pulled Zhao Xiaoxiu's hand.

"What for?" Zhao Xiaoxiu was preparing to show him the small dining table that her father had made for her.

Youyou smiled mysteriously at her, revealing a row of small white teeth, and ran to the sofa in the living room to bring over the schoolbag.

Seeing how hard he was struggling, Zhao Xiaoxiu reached out to take the schoolbag and helped carry it to the dining table. She thought expectantly, it’s so heavy, could it be filled with valuables?
"I brought you a lot of delicious food." Youyou unzipped his schoolbag and took out the snacks he had specially selected.

There were watermelon bubble gum, small breads, low-level mutant fruits, dried fruits and a bunch of bulk sandwich cookies, which filled up the small dining table.

Zhao Xiaoxiu asked in surprise: "Give them all to me?"

"Yes!" Youyou nodded heavily and waved his hand generously, "It's all for you!"

Then he asked Zhao Xiaoxiu what she wanted to eat.

Zhao Xiaoxiu pointed at the biscuits, and Youyou immediately picked a pack, tore open the package, handed her a piece, and ate one himself.

"Good friends should share," he said.

While eating, Zhao Xiaoxiu asked tentatively: "Does your mother know?"

Youyou immediately made a shushing gesture and lowered his voice to remind Zhao Xiaoxiu: "I secretly saved these for a long time. Mom doesn't like me hiding snacks. You must not reveal our secret, otherwise I won't bring you any delicious food next time."

As he said this, he glanced at Zhao Xiaoxiu like an adult, with a condemning expression as if you were a traitor just because I said that.

Zhao Xiaoxiu ate another small piece of bread and patted his chest to silently indicate that he would never betray his companions.

Youyou was instantly relieved. He opened the jar of preserved fruits and sat with Zhao Xiaoxiu at the small dining table which she had not yet finished. They sat together and swung their legs with joy.

Zhao Xiaoxiu was worried that Youyou would ask for water after eating too many snacks and was thirsty. After all, her family did not have filtered water and ordinary people could not drink it.

As it turned out, he had experience. He took out the kettle from his schoolbag, gulped down two big gulps, and poured a cap of water and handed it to her, "Zhao Xiaoxiu, are you thirsty?"

Zhao Xiaoxiu: "Thirsty!"

This is top-grade filtered water with a sweet taste, a good thing that cannot be bought anywhere else.

Zhao Xiaoxiu was not polite at all. She picked up the water cup and drank it in small sips, reluctant to drink it all in one breath.

Youyou fed himself with the snacks he had saved, and curiously looked around and touched things in the tool shed.

Seeing the wooden toys neatly arranged on Zhao Gang's desk, including airplanes, cars, and a fish, he excitedly turned to Zhao Xiaoxiu and asked, "Are these all toys your father made for you?"

Zhao Xiaoxiu nodded as if it was normal, her eyes still on the snacks.

Youyou sighed, "Your father is so good to you, unlike my father."

Zhao Xiaoxiu raised her head from the pile of snacks, blinked her puppy eyes, and asked in confusion: "Is your father still alive?"

Youyou:? ? ?
