Rebirth of the end of the world

New Year's Eve is a very important day for Chinese people. No matter how hard life is, the New Year must be passed.

Everyone hopes that there will be a better prospect in the coming year after "letting go of the old and welcoming the new". The new year has always been a symbol of "stepping into the past".

The days are different now, although it is only three months, but the old days are gone forever.Everyone knows that it may be impossible to return to the previous way of life within ten years.And this year, being able to eat in a warm place and not be threatened by zombies is already very good.

Qin Zhantian and Shen Bao couldn't help much.The resources in the space may be able to support a hundred people, but they cannot afford more.However, the adaptability of human beings has always been strong, and in just three months, some small breeding plants and greenhouses have been successfully built.At least this winter, there is no need to worry too much about food.

How other places are not within the scope of thinking of these people in Shen's villa.Their big family decided to slaughter a pig on New Year's Day.

Qin Zhanyang is Qin Zhantian's only relative here, and he must come to celebrate the New Year's Eve.Although it's a little unreasonable for the supreme commander of the safety zone in the north of the city to go to Xiaozao to eat, but there is no reason to prevent the family from being reunited.What's more, they can't control other safe areas, Shen Bao and Qin Zhantian still provide a lot of things here.Ten geese, five turkeys and a cow.Although these things are evenly distributed to each soldier's bowl, there are no more than two yuan, but they are definitely much better than the people in other safe areas.

Butchering pigs is not something that can be done casually, if you have the courage to use the knife.

Don't look at Qin Zhantian and Zhang Hua, they can kill zombies or people, but killing pigs is not the case.Maybe the pig is not slaughtered and there is blood everywhere. They have seen enough bloody scenes, and they don't want to make the family so miserable.

Everyone knows that the people in the Shen family's villa are all skilled in various skills, so it's not surprising that they will come up with something good.Shen Jun asked Qin Zhantian to say that he had caught this pig on the edge of the city a week earlier when he came back from his soul collection, so no one would find it strange to go to the village to kill it now.

Liu Liu is a good butcher of pigs.In the past, there would be people who butchered pigs in the village during Chinese New Year, and he would help them do the work.Of course, the pigs were not slaughtered for nothing. Those who celebrated the Chinese New Year were all told by the villagers that they were heretics. In the past, they used to cut the meat directly as compensation.Or carry two bottles of wine, no matter good or bad.Now the Shen family will not treat them badly.Not only was twenty catties of meat cut off, but the pig's lung was also cut in half, and two bottles of good wine were given.This is a benefit on the surface. In private, Shen Jun gave Liu Liu another good cigarette.Father Shen doesn't smoke this stuff, and now Xia Tao is forced to quit.Wang Bin was the most addicted to cigarettes in the family, but Jin Yue was too tight-lipped, he only smoked two or three cigarettes a day, and had to be kicked out to finish smoking before coming in again.The big guys sometimes find some when they go out on missions, and it’s a waste to keep them, so it’s better to give them some benefits.

Liu Liu was very sympathetic to the Shen family.Originally, he didn't intend to ask for any reward, but he ended up giving away so many things. "Brother, you are out of touch now, how can you give so many things!"

Shen Jun smiled and said: "Where is this? You know, now these things don't know who the original owner is. Why don't you be polite. The twenty catties of meat is really not much, let alone the wine, the degree It’s not too high. It’s said that the sixth brother has a good capacity for alcohol. It’s not a piece of cake. You can take care of this cigarette carefully. It’s a private collection. I just took it out for you two brothers, and I can't let others see it."

Even if you know that these words may not be true, it will still warm your heart if you listen to them.Liu Liu felt that he hadn't been of much help to the old Shen's family, and that they treated him like this was just for the sake of a better life for each other in the future.People know how to behave, and of course he will too. "You've said that all the time. If you refuse again, I'm ignorant. But I, Liu Liu, will remember this for the rest of my life!"

On New Year's Eve, the villa eats authentic butchery dishes.Shen Bao dug out the recipes in his notebook, but Wu Xia, who grew up in the village, taught by example.Of course, the one who copied the sword and wielded the spoon must be Qin Zhantian.Zhang Ping, Li Jie and Jin Yue were helping in the kitchen.Shen Jun and Xia Tao washed and chopped them.This big family is really lively inside and out.

Shen Bao is the kind of person who can't make it to the scene when there are too many people. The kitchen can't help, and the mahjong table in the living room on the first floor has no part for him.In the end, I could only get together with my grandparents and play with Wu Yujie.

The sauerkraut big bone has been stewed, and the braised pork is also gurgling in the pot.The sweet and sour pork ribs had to be cooked and eaten hot before serving, so he was halftime now.Shen Bao could not be seen in the living room, and as soon as he turned around, Qin Zhantian saw his daughter-in-law in the room of his grandparents.

Seeing Shen Bao teasing Wu Yujie, smiling brightly like a child, Qin Zhantian approached cheerfully. "Xiaojie is also very good today~!" Although he really wanted to tease his wife, but in front of his grandparents, he still had a sense of proportion.

Shen Bao tapped the tip of Wu Yujie's little nose: "Of course. Xiaojie is very good every day. Why are you here? Is it time for dinner?"

Qin Zhantian replied: "No. Our mother and the others are making croquettes and rings (crunchy snacks made of noodles and sugar), I will make room first. Grandpa and grandma, do you two have anything you want to eat today? I Do it yourself in a while."

Grandpa Xia still likes Qin Zhantian very much, of course the comparison depends on who he is with.If it is Xia Tian and Shen Bao, Qin Zhantian is incomparable.But if he was put together with Zhang Hua, then Qin Zhantian would be the treasure in the eyes of Grandpa Xia and Grandma Xia.Especially Qin Zhantian's good cooking skills are known to the whole family, Grandma Xia is nothing special, and the best thing Grandpa Xia has in his life is steamed fish.So Grandma Xia answered for the old man: "How much can the two of us eat, but we still have to have this steamed fish. Didn't you catch a lot of fish in some fish pond in the past few days? I still remember that our family divided four or five fish." Woolen cloth."

Shen Bao has a black line on one side.My dear grandma, there are four or five items in our family. It is our family's things that should be distributed to others forty or fifty items!But it's not a problem for our family to eat a thousand and eight hundred sticks. "Don't worry, how about steamed red carp? Is it a good sign?"

Grandpa Xia nodded with satisfaction: "Good sign! I really hope that everything will be better next year."

Although there are people who come into contact with zombies and various horrific situations almost every day, the family still loves meat and pig blood.

Put sauerkraut stewed with big bones in the old-fashioned copper hot pot, cut pork belly and half-smoked pork liver, and then come with a plate of blood sausage and frozen tofu.The next handful of vermicelli made by myself in the village, this feeling is not to mention how hot it is.

During the Spring Festival in the north, meat is the absolute theme on the dinner table.Especially for their big family, if the proportion of men is too large, it will be even more flesh-and-blood.Although there was meat every day in the previous days, in order to avoid making the big guys suspicious, Zhang Ping always had to calculate when she went out to get the meat, so she didn't eat as much as she wanted.Today, I have a lot of fun to make, and there are boxes of wine in the basement.To be honest, during the Spring Festival before the end of the world, no one at the dinner table had such a lively New Year's Eve.

Everyone seems to want to forget about the end of the world, not to talk about the coldness and misery in the city, not to talk about the dead folks, and not to think about what will happen in the future.At this moment, there is really nothing more important than eating a full meal to completely relax the body and mind.

New Year's Eve without the Spring Festival Gala will always feel that something is missing, and the night without fireworks and lights will also seem to have no New Year's flavor.But even if candles and lamp oil were wasted, if one looked in the direction of the village from the window on the third floor, every house was lit.

After eating and drinking, the whole family was busy downstairs, Shen Bao drank more than half a bowl of white wine and felt a little dizzy, so he dragged Qin Zhantian upstairs and returned to his room.

Lie down by the window, looking at the bright moon sky outside and the lights of the village in the distance, Shen Bao always had a smile on his face: "Brother Tian, ​​tell me, if it will be like today in the future. If there are delicious food, everyone will be happy." Xin, it would be great if I didn’t have to go out to search for things, and I wouldn’t have to fight zombies anymore. Even if I don’t watch TV or go online, I’ll recognize it.”

With Shen Bao in his arms, Qin Zhantian drew the curtains: "There will be such a day. After this winter is over and the weather is warm, we can go home and pack up. As long as the heating equipment can be restored, we can still live in the city." of."

Shen Bao leaned his head on Qin Zhantian's shoulder: "Actually, I quite like this place. I've thought about it too, let's settle here in the future."

Qin Zhantian was overjoyed: "Why, are you really planning to live the life of a farmer?"

Shen Bao replied with a smile: "Yes. The life of a farmer is sometimes quite sweet. You see, how could it be possible to butcher pigs in your own yard in the city. How many people will complain!"

"..." This is where the association went.Qin Zhantian was a little dumbfounded: "Daughter-in-law, I'll make you some hangover tea when you enter the space. OK?"

Shen Bao shook his head: "It's hard to get a chance to get dizzy, and you don't even know how to cherish it. What a prodigal. I won't tell you anymore, I want to sleep."

Qin Zhantian raised his eyebrows: "Didn't you say to keep the old age?"

Shen Bao had already lay down on the bed at this time, with his head buried in the pillow: "Just keep watch."

Seeing his daughter-in-law falling asleep very quickly, Qin Zhantian couldn't help laughing.In fact, you are right, I will just keep you.

On the first day of the new year, a heavy snow fell again.

People were very happy at first.As the old saying goes, "auspicious snow heralds a good year".The snowfall during the Chinese New Year is a good sign. It is not superstitious to say that this is also to store water for the land in the coming year.But no one thought that the snow fell from sporadic light snow to fluttering goose feathers, and there was no intention of stopping all day and night.This makes people somewhat worried.Especially for those in the outer safe zone, heating is a big problem.

The snow was so thick that it was very difficult to open the door on the morning of the second day of junior high school.I didn't expect it to be so thick overnight.

When I got up in the morning, the full-price mobilization began to sweep the snow.In addition to the roof of the roof, the area around the wall also needs to be cleaned quickly.This job seems to have no technical content, but it is really tiring.The most important thing is that the little north wind is so cold that it blows on people like a knife.I can't even wear a military overcoat, and I will freeze through after a while.

There is no weather forecast at this time, but there is still a thermometer.Take out the semi-professional thermometer that has been treasured for a long time and go outside to test it. Five minutes later, the number displayed on the LCD screen was minus 5 degrees five.It's no wonder that this virtue became so cold.

Shen Jun took off his cotton gloves and put his hands into the sleeves of his military overcoat to keep warm for a while.Seeing Qin Zhantian make do with it, he said: "It's really cold today. It's not like there was no time like this before, why do you feel so evil now?"

Qin Zhantian wanted to laugh, but aside from the three-layer mask covering his face, his face was already frozen stiff.I really can't help laughing. "I used to go out in a car, and when I got out of the car, I was in a heating and air-conditioning room. How long did I spend outside in a day. I didn't notice it. This one is slightly stronger than when we were training before. Let's think about it and go on. In the north, the people on the other side of the border are balanced by how they pass.”

Having said that, Shen Jun seemed to feel that it was easier than before. "We are all frozen like this, and I don't know what the others are like. Sigh, you said that if they are all converted into bungalows in the future, fuel will also be a big problem."

Qin Zhantian sighed: "That's right. I guess people will have to move into the safe zone one after another in the next two days. With this temperature, the snow can't melt at all. This winter is really enough." Maybe there will be people who will freeze to death However, they have done everything they can, and there is nothing else they can do.
