Volume 1 Three Months After the End of the World Chapter 53: The Poor Young Lady
In the evening, everyone dispersed.
Zhao Hong lay on her husband's body, sobbing softly .
She wrapped Ma Sanxiong's middle finger with some cotton and said, "Sanxiong, eat the buns. Don't starve yourself. Patrol well tomorrow..."
Zhao Hong took out a steamed bun with a bite taken out of it and most of a bag of pickled mustard tubers from her bulging chest. This was her food for the afternoon. She ate only one bite and then hid it.
Since she couldn't bring the porridge over, she drank it herself.
Although she was very hungry, Zhao Hong still gave the steamed bun to her husband.
Ma Sanxiong grabbed it with his good hand, and wolfed it down while cursing under his breath. He even licked the crumbs between his fingers and the soup in the pickled mustard bag clean.
"Damn these beasts, just wait for me to release the zombies to bite them to death! This is not enough to eat, I'm starving! Go find me something to eat!"
Zhao Hong felt so distressed when she saw her husband being stimulated. She said weakly, "But... that will have to wait until tomorrow morning. If you work hard tomorrow, you will have food. Mr. Shang is a man of his words..."
Who would have thought that these words did not calm Ma Sanxiong's anger at all. Instead, he grabbed her hair and said, "Didn't you see that someone cut off my fingers? Ah!? Do you want me to die outside and then join them like Shang Qian?"
Zhao Hong raised her face after being caught, tears welling up in her eyes: "Sanxiong, I didn't! Let me go!"
Ma Sanxiong shook off Zhao Hong, looked at his wife and sneered, "It's okay if you want to climb up the social ladder, just bring back the food and let me have enough to eat!"
It would have been better if he didn't eat. He only ate one steamed bun, and the feeling of hunger spread throughout Ma Sanxiong's body, as if countless small insects were biting his stomach.
He is a person who has no self-control. In the past, when Shang Qian distributed the daily food, it was fine. He couldn't eat more .
But after Shang Qian left, everyone divided the food, and he finished a week's worth of food in just three days.
Later, when he was so hungry that he couldn't bear it anymore, he kept asking Zhao Hong for money shamelessly.
Zhao Hong gave it to him out of pity, and gave it to him again out of pity...
Now that he was hungry, he naturally wanted to ask Zhao Hong for more, even though she had nothing.
Zhao Hong looked at her husband who used to be gentle and refined, and now he was like a starving ghost. He even said such unbearable words to her. She didn't know whether she was scared or sad. Tears couldn't stop flowing. "Woo~! Sanxiong, stop imagining nonsense and have a good rest. I'm leaving first..."
Ran away crying.
The other men in the room looked at Ma Sanxiong with changed eyes.
It's like looking at a pile of stinking garbage.
"What the hell are you looking at! I am educating my own wife, what do you have to do with it?"
The others were not Zhao Hong, who needed to be submissive to him, but no one wanted to provoke a mad dog, so they all went to rest.
In the girls' dormitory, Li Jie was applying lipstick in front of a small mirror.
Everyone else took various quilts and clothes, but she took her lipstick and small mirror with her when she left.
She has always been a woman who loves beauty.
Su Lele looked at Li Jie, whose lipstick looked even brighter, and wanted to borrow it, but gave up when she thought about having to work in the evening.
Putting on yesterday's JK suit, she exudes a pure and innocent school girl style.
“Da da da~!”
Zhao Hong ran back crying, then lay on the bed and sobbed.
Li Jie smacked her lips twice to make the lipstick on her lips more evenly spread. "Sister Hong, what's wrong? Did the guy surnamed Ma bully you again?"
Qi Tong was more careful. She noticed that Zhao Hong hid the steamed buns. She must have given them to her useless husband. "You! You shouldn't care about him. Let him fend for himself. Everyone has so little food. How can you do that to him? You'll be so hungry that you'll be dizzy when you work tomorrow!"
After hearing this, the other women also understood what was going on and tried to persuade Zhao Hong.
Zhao Hong sobbed for a long time, her face as pitiful as a little cat. She got up and asked softly, "If I go to work at night... do they allow me to bring back food?"
"You..." The girls opened their mouths wide.
10:30 pm, in the villa.
After listening to the radio, Shen Jin felt a little strange: "Have you noticed that Director Hu Shou's tone has become more and more serious recently? It feels like... like a war is about to break out!"
"Oh, he's from the Dragnet Bureau. He must face a lot of zombies on a regular basis. It's normal for him to be under a lot of pressure!"
Li Moxiao's face was full of approval, "I feel like I'm under a lot of pressure right now!"
Several people looked at her strangely, wondering what kind of pressure she could have if she ate and slept every day. If there was any pressure, it would be the pressure of digestion in the stomach...
"I feel like I'm craving for food more and more recently... Am I sick?" He took out a Cornetto from the refrigerator and started eating.
Shen Jin's face was full of black lines: "Where did you get so many cute ones?"
Shang Qian was writing and drawing in a small notebook. She looked up when she heard this and said, "Oh, I saw that she likes to eat Cornetto, so I kept the wrapping paper and made some eight-treasure porridge and froze it in the refrigerator!"
Only then did Shen Jin discover that his niece's dessert actually contained dates and red beans.
"Surprised! How much cuter is it to be able to trick yourself into eating like this?"
Li Moxiao nodded frantically like a chick pecking at rice.
Yang Ao shouted beside him, "Good fellow!"
After a few people left, Shen Jin played the game for a while and suddenly felt it was boring.
"Why do I feel like I can't get excited about anything I do..."
…
Yang Ao sat in the room and could still smell the scent of a woman.
"Alas, you are young and don't know the good of mature women. You mistakenly treat loli as a treasure!"
Or is it that the queen knows how to play...
How about going out for a walk tonight? Then can you find one for Brother Jin?
“That’s the problem…”
Yang Ao opened the door while muttering, and saw Shen Jin who was about to knock on the door.
"Hey? Brother Jin, you're looking for me? What's wrong?"
Shen Jin casually glanced at his room and found that there was no one there. Then he saw Yang Ao dressed neatly and about to go out.
"Ahem...are you going out? I have nothing to do, so I just want to go out for a walk. These past two days, my whole body aches, and I don't know what's going on. I felt better after I massaged it yesterday!"
Sore? After drinking the gene optimization potion, their immunity and recovery ability increased sharply, and they are in great health!
Bah! You just want to pinch!
"Oh! I understand, brother Jin, I'll think of a solution!"
"Um……"
Shen Jin paced back to his room.
Yang Ao went straight to yesterday’s girls’ dormitory, which was of the best quality. The other girls’ dormitory was much worse overall.
“Ahem!”
The women inside, each with their own thoughts, immediately recognized Yang Ao's voice.
Li Jie and Su Lele showed happy expressions and walked out very naturally.
Su Lele felt that she was one step closer to becoming a superior person.
Zhao Hong hesitated for a moment, then followed in small steps.
Yang Ao spotted three people, and the petite and fierce young woman from yesterday also followed.
"I want to work with you...in exchange for some food to bring back, is that okay?" Zhao Hong said weakly, her face turning red.
