When Qin Wan woke up from a nap, Qin Huijun was no longer there. Qin Feng was sitting on the bench next to him, his head nodding off and dozing off.
But when Qin Wan made some movement, he woke up instantly. He rubbed his eyes and said vaguely, "Sister, do you need to go to the bathroom?"
Qin Wan's heart softened. The most rare thing in the apocalypse was actually not a woman, but a child.
"No need for now, let me ask you, how have you and your mother spent the past five years?"
Qin Feng scratched his hair and looked away, "I'm having a good time."
Qin Wan pretended to believe it and asked carefully.
Qin Feng was only eight years old after all. She used some skills to get the information she wanted.
Those five years were miserable for the original owner, and the mother and son also had a hard time.
The original owner's father was not a good man, and took away most of the family fortune saved by his grandfather during the divorce. They were left in a strange shelter with almost nothing. Fortunately, they had a reason to remember their grandfather's kindness and care, otherwise the mother and son would not have been able to survive. Now. Later, the plan to return to the ground was proposed. People were eager to return, but they were well aware of the dangers of the ground. Not many people responded, so the official issued a subsidy policy, and Qin Huijun submitted an application.
As if by tacit understanding, she also came to Yunshan City, rented a house, and set up a stall selling pancakes. Qin Huijun is good at cooking. Even artificial food can taste close to natural food, so she earns a lot. After working hard for a year, she has saved enough money to buy a small house.
Unfortunately, because of her, all this was lost, and they had to move from the city center to the outskirts, settling in a cheap shantytown built by the government.
It's rare that Qin Feng, a little kid, didn't complain.
Qin Huijun taught him well.
Qin Wan was speechless and decided to accept it all.
From then on, she had a mother and a younger brother. From today on, she is Jiang Wan five hundred years later... No, Qin Wan.
The original owner was originally named Jiang Wan after her father's surname was Jiang. However, after she escaped from the Jiang family overnight, she swore to sever all ties with her father and directly changed her surname to her mother's. When she arrived in Yunshan City, she went to the official department to register herself Even Qin Wan, relying on these kind people, quickly found her mother in the huge Yunshan City and met her mother in time.
Qin Wan sighed and thought about making money again.
Five hundred years later, human beings emerged from the underground to rebuild their homes. They were in need of everything, but what they needed most was undoubtedly natural food. When a farmer cultivates high-quality vegetables, fruits and grains, he has no worries about not being able to sell them. The pursuit of green that everyone has suppressed for many years will make the desire surge like the waves.
In my memory, farmers are the most popular profession after wood spiritualists and war spiritualists. Is her earth attribute suitable for being a farmer?
But contracting land requires money, and buying seeds also requires money. Her family has no money.
So I still have to find a job first and then think about anything else.
Qin Wan talked too much and fell asleep from exhaustion.
Qin Feng carefully observed her for a while and tucked her in. He actually didn't like this sister who suddenly appeared. Because of her sister, they almost couldn't even eat 007 sweet potatoes, so they had to eat the official free food. ——Stone nutrient solution. When he was in the shelter, he saw people falling down while walking. Those people had eaten too much stone nutrient solution.
But his mother said that his sister had suffered too much outside and showed him the wounds on her body, so he could only sympathize.
He needs to grow up quickly and protect his mother and sister.
Qin Huijun came back that afternoon and said that the government would select people to open up wasteland and she would get thirty cents a day. She signed up. With this money, at least the Qin family would not have to drink mineral nutrient solution.
Qin Wan was in a bad mood. Opening up wasteland was certainly safer than going to the ruins to hunt for treasure, but it was very tiring, but she couldn't stop it.
The first day of time travel passed like this.
There are no electric wires in the shanty town. Some people will buy a relatively bright stone candle, but the Qin family does not have any, and the space is too small to fit a second bed. Qin Huijun can only carefully put it before it gets dark. Things were stacked on top of each other to make room, and blankets were used to make a bed underneath.
Although the weather is getting hotter and hotter, the ground is so cold that it won't be a problem if it continues like this.
Qin Wan felt a sense of urgency in his heart, listing what he knew and what kind of job he could find.
Early the next morning, Qin Huijun woke her up to solve her physical problems and left in a hurry.
Qin Wan felt much more relaxed. She looked at Qin Feng who was sleeping soundly on the floor. Without disturbing him, she gently lifted the quilt and slowly got out of bed.
When her feet landed on the ground, they felt sore for a while. Qin Wan used her hands to support the bed so as not to kneel down. She let herself sit on the ground slowly, not daring to make any big movements to worry about breaking bones.
After touching the ground, her connection with the earth was no longer so vague, but her heart sank. Just like the wood-type powers can be cultivated through plants, the earth-type powers do not necessarily require zombie crystal cores. Qin Wan She named the power of the earth vitality. Before she died, the land was severely polluted by the virus, and the vitality was already very thin, but it was actually better than it was now.
This land is like a dying person, hanging on for a breath.
No wonder the Wood Spirit Master's status is so high, the official should have discovered this.
After using this unusually rare vitality to practice for an hour, Qin Wan felt sleepy again. He moved to bed little by little and fell asleep.
"Sister, wake up, it's time to eat."
Qin Wan was woken up by his younger brother and ate another bowl of sweet potato porridge. It was equally unpalatable. What was even weirder was that the taste was almost the same as the previous two meals, as if it was made by a robot.
But she knew that it wasn't Qin Feng who had this talent, but that the artificial food looked very much like the ones copied from the same batch.
There is no vitality at all.
She forced herself to eat, but Qin Feng ate with gusto. He even poured water to clean the bucket, and after drinking the water to clean the pot, he said, "Sister, the sweet potato porridge I made recently is getting more and more delicious. Don’t worry, sooner or later I will be as proficient in cooking as my mother and make it look like natural food, then you will like it, sister.”
Qin Wanxin said, I will probably never like it.
Thinking about all the delicacies of mountains and seas that I haven’t eaten before the apocalypse, and then comparing it to the middle and post-apocalyptic days, I can’t even get enough of sweet potato porridge like this.
Qin Wan slept until noon again and was woken up to continue eating. In the afternoon, she finally stopped sleeping. She let Qin Feng help her get out of bed and walked out of the tent for the first time.
Qin Feng was particularly happy, "Sister, your health is getting better and better."
Qin Wan was almost numb from all the smells, but when she walked out of the tent, she found that the shanty town was not as dirty and messy as she thought.
Rows of tents were set up neatly, with a metal plate inserted on the top of the tent and marked with a serial number in red paint. Only a few families had some things piled outside the tents, and someone was handling them. Seeing how they bundled them skillfully, Qin Wan guessed that these were scraps collected.
The reason why it smells so bad is that there is a sewage pond not far away.
No one dumps garbage into the pond, but domestic wastewater is indispensable.
The vitality outside the tent was also thin, and Qin Wan's heart moved, "Fengfeng, do you know where mom is reclaiming wasteland? Can you take me there?"
"Okay, it's not far, let's go together."
Qin Feng happily agreed.
Qin Wan stopped and walked along the way, and Qin Feng did not dare to rush him, for fear that she would fall, and he regretted that he should not have brought his sister out.
Qin Wan walked for ten minutes and walked for an hour.
When she saw the dense crowd of people in the distance, she finally couldn't hold on any longer. Qin Feng helped her sit down slowly. Her legs were shaking so much that her whole body seemed to be broken. But Qin Wan was filled with joy in her heart. This pioneer of land reclamation The local vitality is indeed stronger.
Although it is only doubled.
But it can help her get out of her half-dead state as quickly as possible.
"Whose child are you? What are you doing here?" A man wearing a hat and looking like a foreman came over.
"Uncle Zhang, this is my sister." Qin Feng replied, "I'm here to bring water to my mother."
"Go quickly." Uncle Zhang waved his hand, then turned to look at Qin Wan and clicked his tongue twice, "So you are Qin Huijun's daughter. Your father is really bad. He actually allowed the wife he married later to abuse his daughter to death. In this way, your mother has really sacrificed everything in the family for you, so you must be filial to her in the future."
"I will." Qin Wan nodded and looked forward. Yunshan City was very small and received few resources. It was just like the shelter where my grandfather once stayed. He didn't expect that a few earth-turning machines could be transferred to assist in land reclamation. She immediately asked, "Do you still need someone here? I can also drive a land tiller."
"I learned it from my dad." Worried that the other party wouldn't believe it, she added.
Uncle Zhang shook his head and rejected her, "I can't make the decision. Those machines are from the Institute of Agricultural Sciences, and the people who drive them are also researchers from the Institute of Agricultural Sciences."
Seeing Qin Wan's disappointed look, he added, "Actually, this machine is of little use. It breaks easily and consumes fuel. Energy is now as precious as gold. I'm worried about missing the farming season, but this place What we are growing are artificial sweet potatoes, and what we are eating is feed, so what’s the delay? It’s just that people from the Institute of Agricultural Sciences want to test the machine, and the actual land reclamation depends on the people.”
Qin Wan also noticed that many people were picking up rocks in the wasteland. After cutting, machines would go over to plow the land, but it was true that more people were clearing the wasteland with hoes.
Uncle Zhang reminded her to avoid the car and left.
Qin Wan sat on the ground to recover her strength. After a while, Qin Huijun came and looked at her worriedly, "How are you? Are you feeling uncomfortable? Shall I take you back?"
"No, Mom, I'll help you pick up rocks." She already knew from Qin Feng on the way that everyone has a wasteland reclamation task every day, and if they don't complete it within three days, they will be fired.
And if you can open more, there will be rewards.
This broken body can now pick up stones.
Qin Huijun thought for a while and agreed. This daughter had been separated from her for too long and was almost gone. She was very nervous. She could feel more at ease by looking under her skin.
Along the way to the place where Qin Huijun opened up wasteland, someone greeted her, "Huijun, this is your daughter. She is too thin."
"But if you can get out of the house, you've survived. Just take care of him."
It was so tiring to open up wasteland that the people around me only raised their heads and said a few words, and then quickly lowered their heads and got busy.
"Sister, look, this is the stone I picked up!"
Qin Feng smiled and showed her the iron bucket in his hand. Qin Wan looked at it carefully and saw that the stone was a cement block.
"Fengfeng is so awesome, I'm here to help."
"Sister, are you okay?" Qin Feng had not forgotten what happened along the way and asked with distrust.
"Of course, don't underestimate me. I feel much more comfortable staying here." Qin Wan raised his fist, but unfortunately it was not convincing.
Qin Huijun looked at the two siblings with a smile, then picked up a hoe and dug the ground.
This was definitely an impossible task for her in the past, but she was left penniless by her ex-husband. What hardships had she not endured in order to support her children? She almost forced herself to be able to work. After five years, she lost her frailty and became more toned. Her originally pampered appearance also became rough and darkened several shades. She turned out to be a very capable working woman.
Although she doesn't want her children to suffer, it is always good to exercise more.
