Chapter 221 Guo Qi comes to visit
Behind him, there was a person who looked almost exactly the same. Judging from their age, they were about 40 years old.
twin?
Zuo Ling recognized the difference between the two at a glance. It was not that she had sharp eyes, but that one of them had more than half his hair gray, and he obviously looked more than ten years older.
"Yeah, are you okay?"
"You live in Building 3?"
"Yes."
"Then do you know an old couple? The man's surname is Jin, who teaches at a certain university of science and technology, and the woman's surname is Tang, who works at the Agricultural Research Institute."
Before Zuo Ling could answer, Xiao Hao rushed over and said, "Uncle, you are talking about Grandpa Jin and Grandma Tang. I know them and they live downstairs in our house."
Zuo Ling twitched the corner of his mouth. The little guy regarded Professor Jin and his wife as relatives. Look, he was so excited.
"Really? Where are they now? How are they doing?"
The two of them were so excited that their eyes were red.
Xiao Hao did not answer, but tilted his head, "I guess you must be uncles Jin Yan and Jin Yu."
He looked determined and his little face was full of pride.
After wiping away their tears, the two of them grabbed Xiao Hao's arms and said with a crying voice:
"Little brother, it's us, it's us, I'm Jin Yan."
"I'm Jin Yu."
"Haha, I guess it's because Grandma Tang showed me the photos. You guys have changed so much that I didn't recognize you yesterday."
Xiaohao's voice was full of joy.
"Grandpa Jin and Grandma Tang miss you very much. Grandpa Jin sighs when he thinks about it, and Grandma Tang wipes her tears at your photos. I can see them all."
Jin Yan and Jin Yu shed even more tears.
Zuo Ling: "..."
Can the knife inserted into it speak?
"Little brother, when was the last time you saw them?"
Xiao Hao frowned and thought for a moment, "More than a year ago, at the military base, Grandpa Jin's house was next door to mine, and Grandpa Jin taught me how to read."
Jin Yan and Jin Yu breathed a long sigh of relief. More than a year ago, the two elders were still at the army base, so that was good, that was good.
Thinking of something, Xiaohao ran back to the room, holding his cell phone again, and ran back like the wind.
"I have a group photo for you to see."
The mobile phone was given to him by Zuo Ling for entertainment.
"This is Grandpa Jin's house and Grandma Tang's house. This is my house. I'm not lying to you..."
Zuo Ling deeply felt that Xiaohao was happy from the bottom of his heart.
His world was too small and he only knew a few people. Suddenly he met his son, whom he regarded as his relative, and his childlike nature was instantly released.
Jin Yan and Jin Yu were crying in front of their mobile phones.
"Uncle, don't cry. Grandpa Jin and Grandma Tang will be very happy to know that you are still alive."
"Little brother, what happened at the army base? Why are you here?"
Jin Yan was immersed in joy and didn't realize that he asked a very crucial question.
For him, he just wanted to know if something happened in the army and whether his parents would be affected if they stayed there.
Xiao Hao was startled, half of his smile disappeared, and he subconsciously looked at Zuo Ling.
Zuo Ling also wanted to know how Xiaohao would answer.
"Then... there was a sandstorm that day and the base was flooded. We met bad guys and got separated from the army."
He Xiao's eyes flashed. He was sure that one of Pei Nansheng's siblings must be a superpower. Otherwise, it would be impossible to beat Ning Xiaoqi and Ning Daguo.
But who it was, he wasn't sure.
Xiao Hao was panicked for a moment, but he couldn't escape his eyes. Xiao Hao was lying!
How could such a big army get separated at the drop of a hat, lying like a joke?
But why did Xiaohao lie? What did he want to hide?
He looked at the photos on Xiaohao's cell phone. Being able to build a yard like that at the military base shows that Zuo Ling's family is valued very much.
That being the case, why did they have to leave the army?
Natural disasters are frequent. Who doesn't know that being protected by the military will give you a little more chance of survival.
The military base is not open to everyone. Others are trying hard to get in, but they can't.
Zuo Ling's family wants to leave the army...
Also, where did they hide the car? What about dogs and jackrabbits? How did you come to Kangaroo Country?
It cannot withstand scrutiny and is full of doubts.
He Xiao speculated about Zuo Ling's family, and Zuo Ling also made guesses about his identity.
The doomsday theorist, the one who built a safe house but ran away to a beautiful country before the apocalyptic disaster, is a great injustice!
Ha ha ha ha! It's him!
I asked Mrs. Lin for a bowl of noodle soup and took a big sip. Otherwise, she would have laughed out loud.
Jin Yan and Jin Yu were still questioning Xiao Hao, and Xiao Hao's answers were obviously much more cautious.
Finally, he answered in a hurry and ran towards Zuo Ling.
I also asked for a bowl of noodle soup, pretending to be very hungry and couldn't wait to put it in my mouth.
Zuo Ling looked expressionless and glanced at him.
Xiao Hao shushed his sister and swallowed a bowl of noodle soup.
Mrs. Lin gave the two siblings a white flour pancake each, "If there's not enough, please add more."
Normally, everyone has a ration and there is not much food.
However, the current situation is special and everyone can share more.
Zuo Ling didn't add any more. After washing the dishes, he took his own pancake and went back to the house.
Xiao Hao came in behind, with an obvious look of panic: "Sister, have I caused trouble for the family?"
Zuo Ling made a hissing gesture at him, "No, that's a good answer."
Just as Xiao Hao breathed a sigh of relief, Zuo Ling said again:
"If you say too much, you will make many mistakes. You don't know which words are wrong, so try to say as little as possible."
I still said the wrong thing, Xiaohao's face fell.
Rubbing Xiao Hao's head, Zuo Ling continued: "It's not Xiao Hao's fault. Our family has too many secrets. It is inevitable that there will be omissions. There is nothing we can do about it."
"Oh, I see."
There was a commotion outside the door.
"Brother Guo."
"Brother Guo, are you feeling better?"
"Looking much better."
"..."
Zuo Ling looked out and saw the man who told him yesterday that he was "very cool", and another thinner man, supporting a tall man, chatting with Mrs. Lin and the others.
"Have you eaten yet? Let's have noodle soup. Let's have a bowl."
The man known as Lao Guo waved his hand, "No, no, we ate it."
No one has enough food, and except for the shameless, no one eats at other people's homes.
"I'm looking for Zuo Ling, is she there?"
Find me? Zuo Ling stepped out.
Everyone's eyes circled between Guo Qi and Zuo Ling, wondering what Guo Qi was looking for Zuo Ling for.
Guo Qi took two steps forward. His injury was not healed and he was still out of breath while walking.
"Hello, my name is Guo Qi. I lived in the south area of Noah's Ark for a while."
"Hello."
Looking at the appearance of Guo Qi and his two brothers, Zuo Ling remembered who they were. They were experts in integrating the Southern District!
The southern area of Noah's Ark was deliberately abandoned by Bai Hongwei and others, causing frequent chaos.
After the Guo Qisan brothers left, they not only integrated the Southern District, but also led the people in the Southern District to plant sweet potatoes. Although the results were not good, there is no doubt about this man's ability.
"Can we chat?"
"of course."
Guo Qi looked like a hero in troubled times, and Zuo Ling was quite interested in the topic he wanted to talk about.
Guo Qi called He Xiao: "Let's go together."
"it is good."
Guo Qi was still half-dead yesterday, but he came to visit today, and He Xiao also wanted to know what he was going to say.
Pei Nansheng stayed up all night and was sleeping soundly. Zuo Ling did not disturb him.
After telling Xiaohao to watch over his brother and be alert, he followed a few people out.
After finding an open space, Guo Qi was exhausted and panting heavily. He casually sat down on the ground and said, "I'm sorry, I don't live up to my expectations."
Zuo Ling smiled and found a stone to sit on. He Xiao sat down next to Guo Qi.
Chen Hao and Di Fei took a walk in the distance, seemingly casually, but in fact they were on alert.
The atmosphere suddenly became awkward. Zuo Ling took out a handful of candy bars and gave a few to He Xiao and Guo Qi. He kept one for himself and threw the rest to Chen Hao and Di Fei.
"Oh, I haven't had candy in years. I saw you giving it to the children yesterday. They were so greedy that I didn't have the nerve to ask for it from you."
He Xiao couldn't wait, peeled off the sugar coating and put a piece into his mouth.
Guo Qi didn't like eating candy. He had been in the last years for several years and his body had suffered a lot. When he saw the candy, he felt it was very rare. He peeled off a piece and tasted it slowly in his mouth.
Chen Hao and Defei were as excited as children when they saw the candy. They looked at each other, what kind of candy is yours and what kind of candy is mine.
The sweet taste slowly melted in his mouth, and He Xiao's eyes couldn't help but turn red. What kind of life was he living before the end of the world, and what kind of life was he living now.
The sweeter it is in the mouth, the bitterer it is in the heart.
Guo Qichang sighed: "I didn't eat sugar before, so I didn't think candy bars were so delicious. Now that I can eat a candy bar, I feel so happy."
