Chapter 305 – Raising A Child In An Apocalypse (part 14)

Jiang Fang laughed. “Yaoyao, uncle is also injured, so please blow the pain away for uncle.”

Wang Yao heard his words and looked at Li Su. Li Su nodded. “Yes, it won’t hurt anymore.”

Wang Yao smiled happily, and immediately leaned forward to blow at the wound on Jiang Fang’s arm. “Pain, pain, go away.”

Jiang Fang laughed, “It’s really amazing, my wound really doesn’t hurt anymore!”

Wang Yao felt that she could finally do something for the adults. She was very happy and she continued to blow on the injuries.

Seeing that Wang Yao’s hair and clothes were wet, Li Su was afraid that she would catch a cold. Li Su quickly took out a few clean towels from her space and handed them to Jiang Xiaoya. “Quickly, dry off!” Then, she took out clean clothes and put them on for Wang Yao.

Jiang Xiaoya wiped her hair while looking out the window, and suddenly sat up nervously. “A-Fang, something is chasing us from behind.”

Jiang Fang also saw it. It seemed to be another mutant wolf. He frowned. “Fix your seat belt and sit back!” Then, he accelerated.

Unexpectedly, the mutant wolf chased after them relentlessly. After chasing them for more than an hour, the wolf finally collapsed on the side of the road exhausted as it watched the car speed away. The wolf finally disappeared from sight, roaring in anger and despair. “Awoo!”

They were relieved when they saw that the mutant wolf gave up chasing them.

Jiang Fang looked at the fuel gauge. There was only a quarter of the fuel left. Jiang Fang looked around, parked the car on the side of the road, filled up the gas, and drove again. “Let’s hurry up and find a relatively safe place to rest.”

“Okay, A-Fang, you’re in charge!” Jiang Xiaoya didn’t feel nervous just now, but now that the excitement had died down, she just felt powerless and exhausted. At this moment, she leaned on the co-pilot’s seat.

Li Su poured a cup of brown sugar ginger tea and handed it to Jiang Xiaoya. “Come, drink a little to get rid of the cold.”

Jiang Xiaoya smiled. “Older sister, you forgot that I am also an ability user. How can I get sick so easily? Give it to Yaoyao to drink!”

Li Su knew that Jiang Xiaoya didn’t like the taste of ginger. If it wasn’t for her period, she would never touch the brown sugar ginger tea. She just looked at Jiang Xiaoya. “Yaoyao is already drinking it. It’s just you. Hurry up.”

Jiang Fang also glanced at Jiang Xiaoya. Jiang Xiaoya had no choice but to take the cup and drink it while pinching her nose.

Jiang Fang kept driving for a long time until it was dark. He found a village, which was very quiet. Occasionally, a little bit of light could be seen, and it seemed that there were people living there. Jiang Fang found a house on the outermost periphery of the village, pried the door open, and eliminated the zombies inside so they could enter.

Jiang Fang put the car into the space and checked the house before entering.

Li Su and Jiang Xiaoya had already taken the solar lamp, so they checked the house carefully. They were relieved after they confirmed that there was no potential danger.

Li Su went to the bathroom to take a look. “Xiaoya, there is still water in this solar powered setup. Hurry up and take a shower!”

Jiang Xiaoya went in and took a look “Older sister, you and Yaoyao should wash up first. I’m not in a hurry.”

“Yaoyao has already changed her clothes. It’s fine for her to wash up later. You can wash up first. I’ll cook dinner.” Li Su smiled. “I’ll steam some rice tonight, make a stir-fry, and we can celebrate the rest of our lives once again!”

“Let’s have some fruit dessert after dinner!” Jiang Fang put the sofa behind the door and clapped his hands.

“Great!” Jiang Xiaoya cheered. “Then I’ll go take a shower first.”

“Older sister, there are other people in this village. Just to be safe, we will sleep in the living room tonight. I will go and bring the mattress and a few more quilts,” Jiang Fang said softly.

Li Su nodded. “Okay! After Xiaoya has finished washing up, you can also wash up quickly. I’ll go to the kitchen first.” Li Su took out the solar battery and induction cooker from the space, and took out a lot of vegetables and fruits.

Li Su turned on the faucet. There was still water coming out of the pipe. She nodded in satisfaction and got busy.

Jiang Xiaoya put on a towel and came out of the bathroom, “A-Fang, go wash up too. OLder sister, I’ll help you.”

“No need. You just took a shower, so if you come here, all the fumes will stick to you. You should quickly dry your hair.” Li Su couldn’t help but push Jiang Xiaoya out of the kitchen.

Jiang Fang took his clothes into the bathroom, took a shower, and came out. “If you want to do something, why don’t you get some water and take Yaoyao for a bath?” She could practice in advance, so that she could take care of their babies.

It was a pity that Yaoyao was too old, otherwise he could also practice.

Jiang Xiaoya was really interested when she heard this suggestion and went to the kitchen door to ask Li Su if she could.

Of course Li Su would not object. She hoped that Wang Yao, Jiang Fang, and Jiang Xiaoya would get closer. “Of course you can. Thank you, Xiaoya!”

Jiang Xiaoya hadn’t bathed a child before, so she didn’t know what to do. Therefore, she discussed things with Jiang Fang.

Jiang Fang didn’t know either. He hadn’t taken care of children before, but he didn’t want to show his timidity in front of his girlfriend. Children’s body wash could be used as shampoo and soap. Then there are some toys and so on.

Jiang Xiaoya felt that what Jiang Fang said was very reasonable, and nodded. “Okay, let’s do it like this. Do you have children’s shower gel and toys in your space?”

“Yes!” Jiang Fang said immediately. He took them out from the space. He also took the very popular foldable children’s bath tub sold on Taobao, and a set of toys that sent out bubbles. He moved them to the bathroom. He put in hot water.

Only then did Jiang Xiaoya take Wang Yao in.

One was a child and the other was childish. The two of them had a lot of fun in it. Finally, Li Su’s meal was ready, and they were still joking around. It was not until Li Su came to call the door that Jiang Xiaoya cleaned up the foam on Yaoyao and helped her get dressed.

Jiang Xiaoya blinked at Jiang Fang with big eyes.

Jiang Fang fondly scratched Jiang Xiaoya’s nose with his finger. “Understood, I will prepare a set for you when I have a chance later.”

Jiang Xiaoya smiled happily. “A-Fang, you are so kind!”

Li Su brought the food to the table. “Let’s eat!”

Jiang Xiaoya cheered and sat at the table. “I haven’t eaten normally for a long time. I miss it so much! Ah! My favourite hot and sour shredded potato dish. I can eat three bowls of rice!”

Li Su smiled and said, “Don’t worry, there is a pot full of rice. Eat as much as you want!”

The four of them ate all the food! Jiang Xiaoya really ate three bowls of rice and touched her stomach with an expression of horror.

Li Su said with a smile, “It’s fine. An ability user consumes a lot of energy, so it doesn’t matter if you eat more.”

“Older sister, do you have an electronic scale? I want to see how much I weigh now!” Jiang Xiaoya took Li Su’s hand.

Li Su had no choice but to take out an electronic scale from her space. Jiang Xiaoya held her breath, stood up, and then rejoiced. “It’s close, so close! I’m still 2 pounds short of 100, but I’ve gained 8 pounds. No! Starting tomorrow, I’m going to lose weight!”

Just as Jiang Fang was about to speak, Li Su motioned at him not to speak. She then whispered to Jiang Fang, “Can she hold back when there is delicious food in front of her?”

Jiang Fang laughed after thinking about it. In the face of food, Xiaoya’s self-control had always been zero.

After eating, Jiang Fang went to the kitchen to wash the dishes. Li Su and Jiang Xiaoya made the bed. Jiang Xiaoya took Wang Yao to play with building blocks and Li Su went to the bathroom to wash up.

Suddenly, there was a knock on the door.

Li Su suddenly became nervous. She dressed in a hurry and walked to the living room.

Jiang Xiaoya stood up while holding Wang Yao and looked at the door with a wary expression. “Who is it?”

“We’re here to beg you. We haven’t eaten for several days. We have elderly and children. Please help us!” A voice came from outside the door.

Li Su walked to the window and looked out. There was a group of people standing outside the door, led by a group of ragged, skinny old women and children, including a pregnant woman.

Jiang Xiaoya also saw this scene and became sympathetic, but she didn’t speak. She just asked Jiang Fang and Li Su with her eyes.

Li Su didn’t open the door to give food. She was not a saint. Besides, it wasn’t something that happened once or twice. Moreover, this kind of matter would always be suspicious. How did such a group of old and weak women, and children escape the zombies and survive?

Jiang Fang took out a pair of binoculars, looked out, and then motioned for Li Su and Jiang Xiaoya to look too.

Li Su looked out with the binoculars. Not far from the house, several men were closely watching the situation here under the cover of the wall. They were different from the group of old and weak women and children. These men were all strong and red-faced. One could tell that, even though it was apocalyptic times, they looked like they were living well.

Li Su understood what was going on. She handed the binoculars to Jiang Xiaoya and took Wang Yao.

Jiang Xiaoya didn’t understand what was going on at first. Jiang Fang whispered a few words in her ear. Jiang Xiaoya’s face flushed with anger. “How can there be such bad people! How can they do this?!”

Li Su sighed. “People are sinister. Get used to it slowly!” These men must have done this kind of thing a lot. Once someone settled in this area, they let these old and weak women and children go begging for food. They would keep the materials for themselves, wait until the next time someone with abilities moved in, and then do the same.

“Then what should we do? Can we help? How can we help?” Jiang Xiaoya said in distress. In such a situation, if they could not help, she couldn’t bear it. But if she helped, then it would definitely not be enough to just give them materials. Even if they helped them eliminate the men who controlled them, it probably wouldn’t work. This group of old and weak women and children would have no one to protect them, no one to provide for them, so living would be a problem.

Did they want them to take this group of people with them?

Li Su did not express her opinion, so Jiang Fang made the decision.

Jiang Fang was also hesitating. “Why don’t we help them kill those controlling men outside, and then escort them to the nearest survivor base? What happens next is up to them.”

Jiang Xiaoya nodded. That was fine, but… “There are so many people. How can we escort all of them?”

“It’s okay, I have a way!” Jiang Fang said. There was a bus in his space which could seat 48 people. It should be enough!

“Older sister, what do you think?” Jiang Fang asked.

Li Su nodded and said, “Yes, I have no opinion.” Jiang Fang could do whatever he wanted! She just had to follow them closely.
