Chapter 1308: Living in the days of natural disaster (36)
"Thank you!" Xu Yin poured a glass of water for him and Xixi.
Xu Dong drank it all in one breath and continued to report the news he had learned like a trumpet: "The large migration force will arrive in a few days. I heard it is coming from N city."
Xu Xi also finished drinking the water and said with a small mouth: "N City is in a terrible situation this time. Because of one person's negligence, many people got sick. Those who are not sick must escape quickly, otherwise they will also be infected. Liang
Auntie has been very busy recently and has to make a lot of room for those people..."
"N City?"
Xu Yin's heart skipped a beat.
The male protagonist’s home in the original article is in N city. Could it be that they are among the migration team?
Logically speaking, she and her friends survived that disaster, and the fate of cannon fodder has been reversed, but the system has not "dinged" yet, which means there is still a possibility of being pulled back into the plot?
Really terrible!
However, the news is not entirely bad. At least the children can reunite with their mother, the dean who treats them kindly.
A week later, citizens of N city who were included in the migration list arrived here one after another on buses made of strong and high-temperature resistant materials.
After arriving, they were first isolated and observed at the old base. After three days, they did not show any symptoms of infectious diseases, and then moved into the central city. However, for the convenience of management, a separate floor was set aside for them.
The residents who originally lived on that floor will have to move.
Therefore, many residents have recently moved in to the floor where Xu Yin is located.
Coincidentally, the people who moved in across the door and across the door were all familiar faces. The new owners of the single room across the door were Lin Chen and Lin Tao brothers, and the two-bedroom apartment across the door were moved by the Song Lin family.
However, she knows them, but they don't know her.
But Xu Yin has a good impression of these familiar faces and old customers. When she meets them in the corridor, she will put up a smile and take the initiative to say hello to them.
Song Lin's mother used to be the principal of a kindergarten and now works as a childcare worker in the doll class. When Xu Yin's four children met, she smiled and called her aunt. Her heart melted: "It's so cute!"
Song Lin always felt that he was being taken advantage of: "Mom, they call you aunt, not because you look young, but because they simply don't want to call me uncle, right? I feel like I'm at a loss. In ancient times, I would have been a father at this age.
Nowadays, I only deserve to be an elder brother. But how can a twenty-year-old elder brother have a seven or eight-year-old younger brother and sister?"
"Why not? When you were in your first year of high school, didn't your classmate's mother give birth to a child at an advanced age?" Mother Song rolled her eyes at him. When she looked at Xu Yin's four children, her expression immediately changed from gloomy to bright, and she raised a loving smile, "Children,
Come to Auntie’s house to play for a while? Auntie will bake potatoes for you!”
These days, roasted potatoes can be said to be a higher-end treat for entertaining guests, second only to rice porridge and rolled dough. Because they have a strong satiety and are roasted to a crisp on the outside and tender on the inside, they can be eaten as both a snack and a meal.
Two baked potatoes will save you a meal when you go back.
How could Xu Yin's children really come to your house to get food? She waved her hand and said: "Thank you, auntie, we are in a hurry to go to work, so we won't bother you at your house!"
Song's mother watched them run away, then turned to scold her son: "Look, the seven or eight-year-old boy is not only sensible, but also more diligent and capable than you. Even calling you brother has promoted you, and you still want to be their uncle? Where's your face?"
"..."
Xu Yin and the other two finished their morning work and went to the cafeteria with their lunch coupons. As soon as they got out of the elevator, they were startled by a surprising voice:
"Dongdong! Xixi!"
Xu Dong and Xu Xi turned around, recognized each other, and jumped up in surprise: "South and South? North and North? Why are you here?"
"We came by car! How are you? We thought you had..."
Xu Nan and Xu Bei pulled them together, choked with excitement.
When they checked in yesterday, they saw the photos and names of Xu Yin's four children in the red list award column of the registration center, and then they knew that they were still alive. They originally wanted to come to see them last night, but the dean's mother fainted because she was too excited.
Well, they had to take care of the dean’s mother until now.
Xu Yin raised her eyebrows. These two children were only a few months younger than Xu Dong and Xu Xi, but they looked much thinner, and the clothes on their bodies were so torn that they were almost covered with patches. It could be seen that they had spent many years in N City in the past few years.
It's not very good.
Because I had to go to school in the afternoon, I didn't talk much with Xu Nan and Xu Bei. Anyway, I knew where they lived and could visit them anytime I had time.
"You go back and tell the dean's mother that we are living a good life. We have jobs and can earn contributions to support ourselves. Look! This is the lunch we earned with our labor."
Xu Dong and Xu Xi received their lunch, broke off half a steamed bun and gave it to Xu Nan and Xu Bei, waved goodbye to them.
Xu Yin and Ning Jin remained silent throughout the whole process.
She used to be a retarded child. Except for the three friends around her, it was good if others did not bully her. Xu Nan and Xu Bei never bullied her at best, but they rarely accompanied her and basically just played by themselves.
Ning Jin had only been in the orphanage for a short time and was a little wary of people other than the original person, who was mentally retarded. Xu Dong and Xu Xi liked to chat with everyone they met. They learned that Ning Jin was a child from the city and was victimized by traffickers.
Since I couldn't go home, I took the initiative to come over to comfort him, and then I gradually became familiar with him.
After Xu Nan and Xu Bei left, Ning Jin broke off half a steamed bun and gave it to Xu Dong: "Don't be so stupid next time. If you give it to others, what will you eat for yourself?"
Xu Dong scratched his head: "But they look so pitiful, even thinner than before."
"Why didn't they call us when they left?" Ning Jin said with a serious face, "Don't forget, we were lucky, otherwise we would have died long ago."
The fear of being left behind in the past was awakened, Xu Dong and Xu Xi lowered their heads: "Brother Ning, we know!"
Ning Jin wasn't trying to tell them to draw a clear line between them and the dean's mother and other children in the orphanage, but she was reminding them to keep everything in mind, and don't foolishly give your whole heart away after having a passionate chat.
"Always remember, we can survive until now only because of the second life given to us by Yinyin and the fairy who saved her!" After returning to her residence and closing the door, Ning Jin said to the two children with a stern face.
Xu Dong nodded like a fool: "I understand, Brother Ning."
Xu Xi hesitated for a moment and retorted in a low voice: "Brother Ning, you are wrong. I am now on my third life. A kind person picked me up in a public toilet. The police officer sent me to the orphanage. Is the dean's mother like my real mother?"
Taking care of me is my second life."
"Hey, I seem to have been picked up by a kind person." Xu Dong's eyes lit up when he heard this, "Wow! Doesn't that mean that we, like cats, have many lives?"
"..."
Xu Yin's head turned black: "What? You don't want to try to see if you have nine lives like a cat, do you?"
"Can I try?" Xu Tiehanhan Dong believed it was true and eagerly expressed his willingness to give it a try.
"Yinyin, how do you know if I have nine lives?"
"Brother Ning, how do you know..."
"Xixi,..."
The three children didn't want to talk to him and turned to take their own lunch break.
Finally, this Tiehanhan actually asked the teacher during the afternoon break: How can I know how many lives I have?
After being severely criticized by the teacher, I became honest.
