the beginning of the end

When Mu Qiangguo entered, his son was sleeping. Shen Xi tried to put his son on the bed, but as soon as he left his arms, his son began to cry, obviously feeling something, very insecure.

Shen Xi had no choice but to lie on the bed with his son in his arms, patting Hong, his eyes fixed on his son's little face, and wiped away the hot and humid tears on his son's face.

Shen Xi remained silent. Even though Mu Qiangguo stood beside the bed for a long time, he didn't speak, and his whole mind was on his son.

Mu Qiangguo knew Shen Xi very well, and knew that he must be blaming himself in his heart, and also blamed him for his carelessness, not paying attention to his son's movements with his spiritual sense, not noticing his son leaving the house, and allowing such an accident to happen.

I remember that Shen Xi almost had a miscarriage in the year of her pregnancy. At that time, Shen Xi was also like this. She didn't speak for a long time, but just avoided Mu Qiangguo and stroked her stomach over and over again, silent.

Later, due to miscarriage, after the son was born, his intelligence was lower than that of ordinary children. Although Shen Xi didn't say anything on the face, Mu Qiangguo knew that he was actually the most sad, but Shen Xi's temperament was always I am used to indifference, I like to hide all my emotions in my heart, and I am not good at expressing them.

For example, Shen Xi is much better than Mu Qiangguo when it comes to petting his son alone. Two-thirds of the toys at home and the snacks his son likes to eat are bought by Shen Xi. No matter how busy he is at work, as long as he is He has always put his son first.

Every year on his son's birthday, he will definitely not go to work that day, and he will cook himself, making a bowl of rough longevity noodles for his son, which is said to be a lifelong custom in the family.

Mu Qiangguo knew exactly how much this person didn't like to go into the kitchen.

"I should have looked at my son. I knew he didn't understand anything, but I let him out of my sight. I was frightened and injured." On the bed, Shen Xi's low voice was particularly loud in the room. empty.

Mu Qiangguo sighed, stepped forward and silently embraced these two most important beings to him, he knew Shen Xi's temper, and it would be useless to say anything, only to let Shen Xi vent his pent-up The feeling of being in love is the best for him.

"It's okay, I will take good care of my son in the future, and this kind of thing will never happen again." After a while, Mu Qiangguo comforted him firmly.

Shen Xi gave a faint "Yes".

At this time, the little guy just pouted his mouth in his sleep, turned over and called out "Daddy".

In order not to touch his son's wound, Shen Xi carefully protected his son's injured hand.

The little guy slept for more than half an hour, the wound was still hurting, and he woke up soon. Mu Xibao didn't cry when he opened his eyes this time, but just looked at his father aggrieved, and let him blow it off.

Mu Qiangguo was so happy to make his son happy, and played with him all the time. By the way, he warmed his son's wound with spiritual power, and took out the spiritual spring water in the space to wash it. After two days of raising it like this, his son's wound should be fine. .

In order to let their son remember the lesson this time, Mu Qiangguo and Shen Xi made up their minds and asked their son what happened?

From the son's few words, the two adults learned the whole process with guesswork.

It turned out that the little girl was hiding outside the house to tease her son. When the baby saw the little sister, he thought he was going to play with him, so he ran out of the house with the kitten.

This little girl came here for Mu Xibao's food. As soon as the little guy approached, the little girl looked at the red apple in his hand greedily, and immediately snatched it.

The little guy grabbed his favorite milk and refused to give it, and his hand was scratched by the fierce middle-aged woman.

The little cat was undefended, and when he wanted to protect the little master, he was actually stopped by the little girl's ability.

Originally, at this time, the fruit trees had long since died. Even the fruits sold in the shops were probably already rotten or eaten by people early.

When a little girl sees a juicy big apple appearing in front of her eyes, of course she will feel greedy.

However, Mu Qiangguo thought comfortingly that it was a good sign that his son knew how to protect things at such a young age.

"Father, my sister is not good at all, and she still wants to steal the baby's Guoguo." Mu Xibao pouted and complained to his father in dissatisfaction.How did he know that in this society, snatching an apple is nothing but killing people openly and aboveboard, and no one cares about it.

The two adults felt that their son was so innocent that he had never experienced anything. He had been caring and growing up with care, and was protected too well by the two of them. They couldn't understand the ugliness of today's society at all.

Shen Xi thought about it seriously, and felt that it was impossible for him and Mu Qiangguo to stay by his son's side all the time. After all, the two of them hadn't cultivated the ability to predict the future. Anything could happen in this doomsday. Today's incident just happened to The two woke up.

Although the son is still young, let him know the degree of danger of the doomsday and how to protect himself.At least, not everyone maintains a loving heart for children and cannot bear to be hurt.

Now that the world has changed, people's hearts have also changed.

Shen Xi and Mu Qiangguo already had the same mind, and Mu Qiangguo could naturally sense what Shen Xi was thinking.

"Baby, daddy told you that in the future, when daddy and daddy are not around the baby, the baby will not be able to approach or talk to strangers casually, otherwise, those strangers will grab the baby's things and hurt the baby." Mu Qiangguo said in a persuasive and persuasive manner.

Mu Xibao opened his big round eyes and blinked innocently, not quite understanding what his father said.

Mu Qiangguo looked helplessly at Mu Xibao's ignorant little face. His son was still too young. After all, a child who is less than three years old can really understand the dangers of the human heart.

Shen Xi grabbed his son's injured little hand, blew it unskillfully, and asked calmly, "Baby, does your hand still hurt?"

Mu Xibao nodded first, then shook his head, and said obediently: "Daddy, the baby doesn't hurt, it doesn't hurt anymore."

"The baby came close to that little sister who I don't know today. Did the little sister snatch the baby's apple and make the baby bleed?" Shen Xi said, staring at his son's little face seriously.

Mu Xibao nodded and said, "Young lady is a bad child, the baby is bleeding."

"The baby knows that he is injured and bleeding. When he sees people he doesn't know in the future, the baby should stay away from these people. After that, the baby will not be injured, and the milk and fruit will not be robbed." Shen Xi listened with his son The language he understands, he speaks in a serious manner.

The expression on Mu Xibao's face obviously seemed to understand, but he still nodded seriously. Thinking of his own food, he decided to listen to his father and ignore bad children in the future. "Baby will ignore those bad guys who snatch baby's milk and fruit from now on."

Hearing this, the two adults showed relaxed expressions on their faces, and Shen Xi gently patted his son's head.Mu Xibao happily kissed his father and father on the face.

Mu Qiangguo immediately kissed his son back.

At this time, there were several knocks on the door outside the house.

"Qiangguo, open the door." Mrs. Mu's voice sounded outside the door.

Mu Qiangguo immediately got up and went to open the door, and the old lady Mu walked in with a bowl of custard, followed by the pissed kitten.

"Baby, are you alright?" Old lady Mu asked with concern, seeing that Mu Xibao on the bed was looking at the bowl in her hand with wide-open eyes, she seemed to be all right.

"I steamed a bowl of the baby's favorite custard just now in my spare time. The little guy bled today and needs to be mended." Mrs. Mu passed the bowl in her hand to the eldest son to hold it.

Seeing his son's expectant eyes, Mu Qiangguo smiled and said, "What a greedy cat." Then he passed the bowl to Shen Xi and said, "Feed it to your son."

Shen Xi took the bowl, the baby's small eyes rolled around, staring at the custard tightly, and said happily: "Daddy, feed the baby."

Shen Xi dug a spoon, blew on the temperature, and fed his son. Looking at his son's happy face, the unhappiness in his heart dissipated a lot.

"It's really a little thing that doesn't remember to eat." Mrs. Mu said angrily and amusedly.

The baby cried a while ago and was already starving, and now he doesn't care what grandma says, and only cares about letting his father feed his little belly.

"Thank you mom." Mu Qiangguo said sincerely.

"I am your mother, and the baby is my grandson. They are all a family. Why are you telling me this?" Old lady Mu cast a reproachful look at her son.Although Mrs. Mu regretted that the baby was not her own grandson, the baby had always been very good, and she had been with him for a long time, so she naturally had feelings for him.

This time the baby was injured, and Mrs. Mu felt very sad, and at the same time blamed herself a little.

When Shen Xi heard this, she glanced at Mrs. Mu without showing any expression, and didn't say anything.

Mu Qiangguo naturally saw what Old Madam Mu was thinking, and patted Old Madam Mu on the shoulder.

"How did this society become what it is now? For such a small child, those adults have the heart to hurt them. They are really inferior to pigs and dogs. For a little food, they can do anything." Mrs. Mu said from Shen Zhi Knowing the outline of the matter, he couldn't help complaining angrily, thinking of his daughter-in-law, and the unborn grandson and the current state, an unspeakable sadness emerged from the bottom of his heart.I couldn't help thinking sadly in my heart: "If my family's life didn't depend entirely on the supernatural powers of Shen Xi and the elder son, what kind of end might it have ended up in?"

The old lady Mu sighed deeply: "In the future, I will take care of the baby and the eldest girl more. I can rest assured that the two children are still under my nose."

Mu Qiangguo nodded, he knew that the old lady Mu's sigh at the moment was a compromise to the doomsday, and she still had empty helplessness.

"Feed the baby, and I'll clean up the bowl later." Mrs. Mu said a word and went out.

"Mom, no need, I'll take out the bowl and wash it myself later." Mu Qiangguo shouted from behind.The old lady Mu paused with her hand closing the door, and nodded.

Mu Xibao ate a full bowl of egg custard, and there was nothing left. This time, the little guy completely forgot about the injury just now, and his face was full of excitement.

In order to prevent his son from accumulating food, Shen Xi thought for a while and said, "I'll take my son into the space to play for a while and soak in the spiritual spring."

Mu Qiangguo nodded, and took the empty bowl from Shen Xi, "You take your son in first, and I'll come in after washing the bowl."

"That's right." Shen Xi called out faintly to Mu Qiangguo who was walking out.Mu Qiangguo didn't understand why he turned around.

"The watermelon you planted in the space some time ago is ripe. In such a hot weather, you can take two out for the old lady and them to taste. It's good to cool off." Shen Xi picked two from the space with a thought. Big watermelon, take out a basket of apples by the way.

"Guagua, the baby wants to eat too." Mu Xibao asked Nuo Nuo when he saw the watermelon on the ground.

"Daddy brings the baby to the playground to eat." In order to prevent the baby from revealing his secrets in front of outsiders, Shen Xi and Mu Qiangguo have been calling the space "playground" in front of the baby.

"Daddy, go to the playground." The baby clapped his hands happily.

Before Mu Qiangguo could speak in the future, one big and one small disappeared in front of his eyes, and by the way, he also brought the kitten lying on its stomach and pretending to be dead into the space.

Mu Qiangguo smiled, put the empty bowl into the basket, held a watermelon in one hand, and left the room with a large basket in the other.

In less than a moment, Shen Zhile's cheers came from the main room outside.

The watermelon that grows in the space is not as big as usual. When Shen Xi took it out, there was a chill in it. It was enough for a few adults to have a big meal. Mrs. Mu was also happy to be able to eat the fruit, and she didn't mind at all. Why did Shen Xi take out the big watermelon until now.

Besides, occasionally Shen Xi would take out a small basket of apples from the space for everyone to try.

The old lady Mu looked happily at the two big round watermelons placed by her eldest son in the main room, and immediately ordered one for Mocheng to freeze in ice water to eat the next day, and the other for everyone to eat.

As for the basket of apples, they are not perishable, just as long-lasting as a whole watermelon with the skin on. Mrs. Mu decided to put it in a conspicuous place, so that anyone who gets hungry can eat it by herself.

When it comes to food, Mrs. Mu is strict, but she never skimps on what the family eats. After all, in the apocalypse, the men in the family will only be strong enough to fight mutant animals and protect the family when they are full.

Although Mrs. Mu is a typical rural old lady, she still has some foresight, and she is not blindly pedantic and unreasonable.Otherwise, she wouldn't have begged the uncle of the two sons to let the younger son go to college and leave the countryside regardless of face.

This night, after eating watermelon, everyone went to bed contentedly, and the unhappiness and shadow caused by the little baby's injury dissipated a lot.

After Mu Qiangguo finished delivering the fruit, he went back to his room after a delay outside, locked the door and entered the space.

A family of three with a kitten stayed in the space for a long time, and did not come out until almost midnight.

The little cat didn't protect the little master well, and it took it for granted that it was arranged and taught by the two big masters in the space, and it took a long time to pretend to be pitiful before it was forgiven.

After this lesson, the little cat will naturally protect the safety of the little master more meticulously, and will not let go of any bad guys who dare to approach the little master.

In the middle of the night, Mu Qiangguo gently hugged his son who was sleeping in his arms, and Shen Xi grabbed the kitten with one hand and just left the space.

Shen Xi habitually released his spiritual consciousness, and at the same time, his expression froze. He felt a slight fluctuation in the barrier set up outside, and immediately became alert: "There are people outside."
