After making an agreement with the two children, Zhao Xi left the stall and continued shopping.

Seeing a stall selling handmade wood products, Zhao Xi asked the stall owner to make building blocks, jigsaw puzzles and other toys for the children, and prepared to give them to the children to play with. He also gave them a small wooden stick to use when exercising.

use.

Seeing that the stall owner's craftsmanship was very good, Zhao Xi also asked the stall owner to carve himself a few wooden combs, a dozen hairpins of various kinds, and some small doll ornaments that had no function but were really beautiful.

, she also asked the stall owner to make small wooden plaques for herself, her five children and Xiaoju, with each person's (cat) name engraved on the plaque.

There was no way, maybe this was the charm of traditional craftsmanship. He and the stall owner's wife went to the public area to donate points. Zhao Xi carried a large bag of wood carvings and walked to the hut at the foot of the mountain with satisfaction.

Go back and make lunch for the children.

"Zhao Xi!"

Not long after Zhao Xi entered the door, she heard a voice from the side calling her name. She subconsciously stopped and looked in the direction of the sound.

I saw a woman standing not far away wearing a white knitted hat, a thick scarf, a mask on her face, a goose-yellow down jacket, and thick leather boots, waving to me.

"Zhao Xi, if it's really you, I know I won't admit the wrong person."

"Who are you?" Seeing Zhao Xi's confused eyes, Liu Meng quickly took off her mask and said:

"I, I am Liu Meng, don't you remember, we were neighbors before, and you saved me once before."

Zhao Xi: "..." I really didn't expect that I would meet Liu Meng here. I remember that the last time I saw Liu Meng was when she lost control and killed Wang Qingqing.

I drove my RV under the water and saw Wang Qingqing's body sinking with my own eyes, and then watched Liu Meng sit blankly on the raft and let the raft float away into the distance...

"Zhao Xi, Zhao Xi? How did you get to the base? Do you live here?"

Zhao Xi looked at the well-dressed Liu Meng, shook his head and lied:

"Oh, no, I work here."

"Working?" Hearing Zhao Xi's answer, Liu Meng had an expression of disbelief. Zhao Xi pretended not to see it and asked with confusion:

"What's wrong?"

"No, it's okay, I thought you lived here..." Seeing this, Liu Meng shook her head in embarrassment and disappointment.

"Look at how I'm dressed. I don't think I can afford to live here. The survivors who live here are all important technical personnel of the base. Judging from your dress, you live here now, right?"

Zhao Xi looked up and down at Liu Meng's clothes. They were clean and tidy. She was wearing a creamy yellow down jacket, which made Liu Meng look fairer. She looked more like someone who lived here than herself, who was now covered in gray.

"Ah? Oh, I have a friend who lives here, and I'm staying at her house." Seeing Zhao Xi looking at herself, Liu Meng pulled her clothes a little awkwardly.

"That's it, then I won't tell you anymore. I went out to buy things for the master's children, so I have to go back quickly." Zhao Xi looked at Liu Meng's eyes evasive and hesitant in speaking. It was obvious that he was confused.

Problems, and I don’t want to talk to her anymore.

Zhao Xi didn't comment on Liu Meng. After all, he was just a neighbor he hadn't seen for a long time. He once went to buy supplies with her for a few days, but later because of Wang Qingqing, they didn't have much contact with each other anymore, and they didn't spend much time together.

Long, no need to have deep intercourse.

"Zhao Xi, where is your master's house? When do I get off work, can I come and talk to you?" Seeing Zhao Xi looking like he was about to leave in a hurry, Liu Meng hurriedly asked without hesitation.

Zhao Xi looked at Liu Meng. It was obvious that she had trouble with him, but he didn't want to cause trouble for him, and it was impossible for him to tell her where he lived.

"I'm sorry, you can't give out your employer's address casually. Otherwise, if you are discovered, I will not be able to keep my hard-earned job."

"This, that's it. Your employer is quite harsh~" Liu Meng's smile completely froze.

"Well, yes. Then I'll leave first."

"Zhao Xi, actually I have something to ask you for help. I'm in trouble..." Although Zhao Xi was dressed in gray and looked out of place in this hut at the foot of the mountain, Liu Meng felt inexplicably that she was a resident here.

Zhao Xi felt a little mixed in his heart as he listened to Liu Meng lamenting about his misfortune.

She didn't know how credible the other party's words were, but if Liu Meng really had no choice but to board the pirate ship as she said, she could give her some contribution points to help her rent a house underground.

It's just a little bit of acquaintance.

"Let's see. Although I don't have many contribution points on hand, my employer takes care of the food, so I have saved some. I can give you 90 contribution points. At four o'clock this afternoon, you can take your contribution points and card them to the hut at the foot of the mountain.

Wait for me at the gate and I'll take you around. This is enough for you to rent a small house underground to get through this period."

The single room on the ground floor has 30 contribution points a month, giving 90, no more, no less, which is enough to pay three months' rent. As the saying goes, helping the emergency does not help the poor, giving Liu Meng 90 contribution points is enough for her to survive the current situation.

Difficulties.

However, Zhao Xi glanced at Liu Meng, whose eyes were full of disappointment, and wondered if he was willing to give up the obviously better conditions now.

At four o'clock in the afternoon, Zhao Xi waited for her at the gate of the mountain hut at the time agreed upon with Liu Meng. However, it was not until dark that the snow on Zhao Xi's body turned her into a snowman, and Liu Meng had not yet appeared.

Finally, Zhao Xi glanced in a certain direction, and then headed back home without looking back.

In fact, Liu Meng had been here before, but she hid far away behind a small house, taking a few steps closer to her from time to time, then turning around and walking back. She repeated this process several times, and finally she chose to leave.

Zhao Xi could probably guess what Liu Meng was struggling with, so she waited in the snow for a long time, but the result... was expected.

"Sister Xiaoxi, you've been out for a long time. Wow, your hands are so cold. Come and warm them up." As soon as Zhao Xi entered the door, he was jumped by Ning Ning who was guarding the door.

Zhao Xi was feeling cold and wanted Ning Ning to stay away. Unexpectedly, the little guy just took one of her fingers and drove away.

Zhao Xi had no choice but to lower his arm and let her pull him.

Even though the little guy is only over three years old, he is already holding his own finger and walking ahead. Thinking of this, Zhao Xi couldn't help but smile a little.

But that wasn't the end yet. The little guy placed Zhao Xi on a chair in front of the fireplace and began to command his brothers.

"Xingxing, take a towel and wipe Sister Xiaoxi's hair."

"Roar!"

"Pengpeng, get some snacks, sister Xiaoxi is hungry~"

"Da Mao, I want water, Sister Xiaoxi is thirsty~"

After being taken care of by several children, Zhao Xi experienced the "old age" life in advance, and finally realized that what she was experiencing was not the old age life, but the "baby" life.

It turned out that there was no exercise and rest this afternoon, so several children played house. To be precise, three children played house, and Da Mao was forced to participate.

It's just that after everyone selected the father (Peng Peng), mother (Ning Ning), grandfather (Da Mao), and grandma (Xing Xing), they found that there was still one person missing to play the baby.

Several children discussed it, but no one wanted to play the role of the baby. In the end, Ningning thought of Zhao Xi who was away from home. In fact, she wanted Lanlan at first, but Lanlan and Zhao Xi had told her that the children could not touch her casually, and the baby had to be taken care of.

, it must be moved.

so……

And until Zhao Xi comes back...
