Chapter 12 Contact
Li Cuihua was quick to close the door.
Yao Tian took a deep breath. If he hadn't seen it wrong just now, the woman with only half a brain and half an arm left, with a hunched back and walking unsteadily, wasn't she the woman he met in the elevator yesterday?
At that time, he thought the person was pretty and looked at her a few more times, and was even grabbed hard on the arm by Lin Ziqi.
There shouldn't be any mistake. She was still wearing the yellow halter dress with a halter neckline that she wore last night, and the color of the brown suit outside was completely unrecognizable.
"Son, what happened? What should we do?" Li Cuihua was now frowning. If Yao Tian had not promised her to come to the city as soon as possible, they would not have encountered this situation now.
Li Cuihua thought of the rice piled up in her country house and the vegetable garden next to the house, and then thought about the present situation where she had nothing. Li Cuihua, who felt that she had come to the city to enjoy a good life before going to bed last night, couldn't help but complain in her tone.
boom!
The sound of banging on the door was followed by the roar of a zombie with only half a head left outside the door.
The door, which was not very strong to begin with, made a sound of being unable to bear the weight with each collision.
Li Cuihua and Yao Tian, mother and son, were like two frightened quails at this moment.
It took them a while to remember and they quickly pushed the shoe cabinet in front of the door against the door.
"Who is knocking on the door so early in the morning? Yao Tian, please open the door and take a look. It's so noisy." Lin Ziqi was wearing a coat and looked impatient.
The zombies outside the door heard the human voice and banged even harder.
Li Cuihua gritted her teeth, saying that this daughter-in-law was really not able to help anyone and was always causing trouble.
Yao Tian calmed down a little at this time and pulled Lin Ziqi into the house.
Before going to bed, they both turned on the Do Not Disturb mode on their phones to avoid being disturbed.
At this time, the Internet was in an uproar.
Lin Ziqi saw Yao Tian looking at his phone silently with a tense mouth. Just as she was about to lose her temper, she saw a phone lying in front of her with a video playing in it.
"Zi Qi, there are zombies everywhere outside." Yao Tian said this with difficulty.
He was about to become rich, marry Lin Ziqi, whom he had pursued for so long, and have his own family, but he never expected that a zombie outbreak would actually happen.
Overnight, everything changed.
Lin Ziqi was stunned. Zombies?
Maybe she slept too late yesterday and is a little confused today.
Lin Ziqi quickly grabbed her phone which was still charging and searched for news online.
But both official and folk news were dominated by zombies.
Due to the lack of censorship, many bloody videos of zombies biting people can be seen everywhere and are forwarded by many people.
It was then that Lin Ziqi noticed that her mother and brother had called her several times, but she didn't answer them because she had turned on the Do Not Disturb mode.
Lin Ziqi quickly called her mother back, and fortunately, after two beeps, someone answered the phone.
"Hello? Mom, are you and your brother okay?" Lin Ziqi asked anxiously.
"Qiqi, mom and your brother are fine here, but we are worried about you. We called you a few times but you didn't answer. Your brother and I are so worried."
Hearing the words from the other end of the phone, Lin Ziqi's eyes were filled with tears, and her tearful look made Yao Tian feel very distressed.
Seeing that her family was fine, Lin Ziqi breathed a sigh of relief.
After hanging up the phone, she hid in Yao Tian's arms and cried.
Yao Tian gently stroked Lin Ziqi's hair and coaxed her softly. Both of them ignored Li Cuihua who was standing outside the door with a gloomy face.
On the other side, Jiang Jiang, who had just finished her breakfast, was watching the drama with great interest. Based on her years of experience in watching TV dramas, the best was yet to come.
There will definitely be a side storyline on Lin Ziqi's side, and the family ethics drama between Li Cuihua and Lin Ziqi will surely be very exciting.
In this morning, Jiang Jiang opened ten durians and packed them into boxes. He put five boxes in the refrigerator, intending to eat them after freezing, and put five boxes directly into the space.
As for the remaining durian shells on the ground, Jiang Jiang put them in a large black garbage bag and planned to throw them outside on a dark and windy night.
In this situation, there was probably no one outside, so she didn't have to worry about objects being thrown from high places and hitting anyone.
Holding the freshly cut leeks, Jiang Jiang took out a piece of pork from the double-door refrigerator at home, minced it with a meat grinder, put the minced pork and chopped leeks into a small bowl, added appropriate amount of seasoning, and finally stirred it evenly.
Jiang Jiang didn’t know how to roll out dumpling wrappers, but she had stockpiled a lot when she went to the vegetable market before. She directly took out a stack of dumpling wrappers from the space and started making dumplings while watching the variety show she had downloaded before.
The weather in late autumn has become a little chilly, indicating that winter is coming.
Jiang Jiang cooked a bowl of fresh dumplings and made some spicy oil dipping sauce. Even though she had eaten breakfast, after smelling the aroma of the dumplings, she ate ten in one go and drank a bowl of dumpling soup, which warmed her whole body.
After dinner, Jiang Jiang wrapped the remaining dumplings, a total of 102, and sent them directly into the space.
Maybe because he had been busy in the past few days, Jiang Jiang didn’t know what to do now that he had some free time.
So after not much rest, Jiang Jiang started to get busy again.
This time she changed her job and peeled durian for the whole morning. In the afternoon she planned to peel jackfruit.
Jackfruit is more troublesome and time-consuming to prepare than durian, but what Jiang Jiang has the most right now is time.
She put on disposable gloves, found a sharp small fruit knife, applied some vegetable oil, and began to peel the jackfruit slowly.
Ding Dong!
Jiang Jiang, who was immersed in peeling a jackfruit, was interrupted by the sound of a message. She took off her gloves with one hand and clicked on the message.
The message was sent by Yao Tian.
"Jiang Jiang, there's a zombie crisis out there. How are you? I'm so worried about you."
As for whether to say it or not, Yao Tian still had some brains and did not choose to call directly.
One of the top ten causes of death in horror movies, the death call from a stupid teammate.
There are always times when, at some critical moments, the protagonist’s phone is not switched to silent mode, and by chance, someone calls, and the boss finds out.
It was only late in the afternoon that Yao Tian remembered her.
Jiang Jiang was not angry, because she didn't send a message to Yao Tian.
Let her think about what to say.
"Yao Tian, I'm trapped in a hotel with my colleagues. The situation is terrible. I just got a signal to send you a message. Can you come find me? I'm so scared alone."
Jiang Jiang felt that after hearing these words, Yao Tian would never bother her again.
Afterwards, as she expected, seeing that Jiang Jiang was unable to get any help, Yao Tian just comforted her dryly by telling her to hide and wait for rescue, and there was no more letter from him.
"Son, how are you?" Li Cuihua asked anxiously.
Yao Tian, who had just replied to Jiang Jiang's message, shook his head helplessly, and Li Cuihua looked disappointed.
Just now, the three of them searched the entire house, but found nothing to eat or drink except a few bags of instant coffee. Does Jiang Jiang usually eat air at home?
They had no idea that Jiang Jiang didn't live here usually.
Lin Ziqi is used to reading people's expressions. Knowing that things are different now, she also began to control her temper.
She gently stroked her belly, leaned against Yao Tian, and said weakly, "Yao Tian, the baby and I are hungry."
After saying this, Yao Tian also remembered that Lin Ziqi was pregnant with their child.
Thinking about the chickens and ducks his mother brought, and that there was no food to feed them, he said, "Mom, go kill a chicken and we can make soup for Ziqi. No matter how hard it is, we can't let the child suffer."
Li Cuihua wanted to say something, but then she thought that the chickens and ducks would only get thinner and thinner if they didn't eat, so it would be better to kill them now and put them in the refrigerator. She just glanced at Lin Ziqi hatefully and walked into the kitchen without saying a word.
From now on, the power of the kitchen cannot be handed over to others.
At the same time, Lin Ziqi, who had resumed contact with her mother, received news again.
"Qiqi, do you have any food? Mom and your brother will run out of food tomorrow."
