In the end of the world, I made my fortune by farming my boyfriend [farming]
Chapter 2 Sending a Letter
Xu Jing always remembered the man in the water, but unfortunately his consciousness was not so clear at that time, and he couldn't tell whether it was reality or a dream.
The river next to the Renyuan living area is a tributary of the whole river. Although the flow is relatively gentle, the river is three to four meters wide and the center of the river is more than three meters deep. It is very dangerous for children of a few years old to swim here.
There were people coming and going in the living area, so Xu Jing chose a small path to bypass most of the people, and quietly walked along the reeds by the river to the place where he drowned that day.He is over one meter tall now, and people hiding in the reeds can't see him at all.
When he arrived at the destination, Xu Jing looked up at the sun. Today's weather conditions were similar to the day he drowned. The sun was shining brightly and the heat was overwhelming, and he was sweating hot after walking around.
The river flows quietly, and the reeds on both sides occasionally sway with the wind. There is no human habitation within a dozen meters of sight.
Xu Jing walked up and down the river for more than ten meters, but he didn't find anything, let alone the shadow of the man he saw that day.
He doesn't remember much about that man's appearance, the only thing that is deeply imprinted in his mind is his steady and powerful hands and the way he has been sinking and floating in the water.Xu Jing suspects that he is not from this living area.
Even though he has been stupid for so many years, Xu Jing still has some impressions of the people he often sees.Most of the men in the living area are strong and dark, with the image of a standard farmer, but the man in the water is not like this. He is too handsome and has an outstanding temperament.
After doing a full set of preparatory exercises on the shore, Xu Jing took off his clothes and planned to go into the water near the river bank to have a look.
He is very good at water, and can maintain a delicate balance even if he does not move underwater, allowing his mouth and nose to breathe.The children here can swim in the river, which means that there are not many undercurrents. He just plans to go down to the river to have a look, and he is not worried.
Just when Xu Jing's two feet entered the shallow water, a head suddenly appeared on the surface of the river, a man's head.
Xu Jing was taken aback, and jumped up to the river bank with an "ow!", goosebumps formed on his arms.When he calmed down a little, he looked closely, only to realize that it was the man who saved him that day.
The man was floating in the middle of the river, staring at him.
The man has three-dimensional facial features, very little facial fat, looks handsome and sharp, with a pair of dark eyes, which look a little penetrating.
Xu Jing thought he was swimming at first, but after a few more glances, he realized that the man was floating in the middle of the river, his hands and feet completely motionless.Most people sink to the bottom so early, it is impossible to maintain such a state.
After staring at him for a while, Xu Jing whispered hello, "Hello, thank you for saving me last time."
The man didn't say anything, and seeing that Xu Jing didn't intend to swim in the river, he sank quietly into the river again.
What the hell is a man?Humanity?River God?water ghost?Xu Jing didn't know, he calmed down for a while, and then slowly supported the river bank into the water, just now he jumped too fast, his feet were covered with mud, grass seeds and other debris, he had to wash them before going ashore to put on clothes .
Just as Xu Jing went down the river, the man came out quietly again.
Xu Jing looked at him, suddenly a flash of inspiration flashed in his mind, he raised his foot to signal him to look, "Don't worry, I just wash my feet, I don't swim in the river."
After saying this, Xu Jing quickly rubbed his hands and feet in the water, cleaned them up briefly, and walked slowly ashore to put on his clothes and slippers.
Seeing the man in the river, he sank back quietly.
Xu Jing looked at He Xin for a while, then slowly turned and left the river.
He didn't go back right away, but slowly walked half a circle around the living area.
The Renyuan living area is just a small living area, with four to five hundred families living on one side of the river.Our houses are similar, most of them are built with a kind of gray safety brick, and a small part of them are mud brick houses.
Xu Jing knows that this is to prevent W rays.
W-rays are the product of extraterrestrial meteorites.
In February [-], a huge meteorite with strange origins hit the earth, which not only caused a large number of natural disasters, but also emitted a large amount of harmful W-rays, which affected the earth's magnetic field and caused many precision instruments on the earth to go on strike one after another.
W-rays have an extremely bad destructive effect on the microenvironment of the human body, and the consequence of these damages is that the cells in the human body are greatly stimulated and fall into a state of disorder. These cells divide and grow crazily but cannot differentiate, as if it is the evolution of cancer The body is much scarier than cancer.
Just because of W-rays, [-]% to [-]% of human beings died in this catastrophe.
Rays will not only cause great harm to the human body, but also pollute the soil, plants, and everything on the earth, among which the pollution of metals is extremely high.In order to survive, human beings moved out of cities, entered safe areas one by one, and developed various products against W-rays.
Xu Jing's health was not very good in his life, and he was exhausted after walking half a circle around the living area. He found a shady place to sit and rest for a while, then took another shortcut, and walked slowly back to Liang Guotao's house through a series of houses. .
It was past twelve o'clock when he returned to Liang's house, and the shadow under his feet changed direction and gradually grew longer.His wheat-colored skin was flushed with sunburn, his body was covered with hot sweat, and his whole body was listless.
Li Yinxiu sat in the corridor picking beans, saw him come back, and asked: "Where did you go, and you didn't come back for dinner at noon? You also caused everyone to wait for you alone."
"I don't remember the way." Xu Jing replied in a muffled voice.
"Keep down, your cousin and the others have gone to take a nap." Li Yinxiu stood up, went to the kitchen and brought out a bowl of rice, "Eat quickly."
Xu Jing took the bowl and chopsticks and sat down in the corridor to eat slowly.In this bowl of rice, the top half was covered with water spinach full of leaf stalks, and the bottom was buried with a small half bowl of mixed grain rice. He ate it cherishedly, and took the bowl to the kitchen door to fetch water to wash the dishes.
The Liang family dug a well at the entrance of the kitchen, and the water source was slightly affected by W-rays. As human beings' resistance to W-rays gradually increased, this impact was far within the range of human tolerance.
After washing the dishes, Xu Jing put the bowls back into the kitchen, quickly took out an empty matchbox, filled a small box of salt from the salt shaker, put three more matches in it, and hid them in his trouser pocket before walking back Li Yinxiu stepped forward, "Grandma, I'm going back to my room."
Li Yinxiu originally wanted to ask him to pick out the sundries in the beans, but when he looked up, the child in front of him was thin and small, with red cheeks and dry skin on his lips, he stopped and waved him to go.It's not that she feels sorry for Xu Jing, he is going to be sick, and he needs to use the family's money to go to the doctor.
Xu Jing walked along the shadow under the eaves. When he passed Liang Guotao's room, he saw a whole piece of green orange peel on the window sill. The orange peel was still fresh, and it should be the one that Xiaobao brought back in the morning.
The weather was very hot, and Xu Jing was indeed showing signs of heat stroke.He fell asleep drowsily, and it was almost dark when he was woken up.
Liang Ermei stood in front of the bed with her arms around her chest, stared at Xu Jing, and cursed in a low voice, "I know how to eat and eat all day long, and I don't do any work. I will eat you to death sooner or later!"
She is 14 years old this year. She is just over 1.5 meters tall. She has thin lips, black and yellow skin, and is very thin.
Xu Jing is 11 years old, but her head only reaches her chest. Before she woke up, Xu Jing was very afraid of this fierce distant cousin.
Xu Jing got up slowly, walked around her and walked out.
Liang Ermei snorted coldly, chased up from behind, pushed Xu Jing away vigorously, and walked out quickly, dragging her slippers.
Dinner is the same as before, whole grain rice, fried sweet potato leaves, fried eggplant, boiled winter melon, soy sauce chili, this time Xu Jing's bowl is still half a bowl of rice.
After eating quickly, Xu Jing took the empty bowl and put it in the pot on the side.
Li Yinxiu took his bowl, added two mouthfuls of rice for him, and asked, "Is your appetite so big today?"
Xu Jing nodded, "I wasn't full before."
Li Yinxiu's face immediately pulled down, she put the bowl on the table with a bang, and said, "Eat, eat, eat! You know what to eat. Why do children eat so much if they don't work?"
Xu Jing silently picked up the bowl and slowly ate the rice in the bowl.
Xiao Bao sticks out his tongue and laughs at Xu Jing, "Big bucket, shame face."
Xu Jing pretended he didn't see it, but Guo Yingzhen gave Xiaobao a glare.
After dinner, Liang Ermei went to wash the dishes.The Liang family sat under the eaves for a while to enjoy the shade, and then went back to their houses to rest.
The entire Renyuan living area has no electricity. Everyone goes to bed early at night and wakes up early during the day.After the sky was completely dark, there were basically no human voices, only the sound of insects and the gentle evening wind.
Since the outbreak of W-rays, the small organisms on the earth have adapted better than humans, and being polluted by W-rays does not hinder their survival.
Xu Jing slept a lot in the afternoon. Hearing the sound of insects at this time, he was extremely awake.He rubbed his stomach, it's okay now, he will be very hungry after a while, just like yesterday and the day before yesterday.
He whispered into the air: "Watch, tell me the time."
"It's 21:[-] p.m. now."
"Turn on the monitoring, the monitoring distance is three meters. Set it to the hidden state."
"Ok."
Xu Jing got out of bed, put on his tattered slippers, tied them with hidden tree vines, and got off the bed lightly.
At this time, most people have fallen asleep, there is nothing wrong, they will not get up.
Xu Jing wanted to take this opportunity to go to the wild to find some food to save, so as to alleviate the state of not getting enough to eat every day.
Pushing open the door softly, Xu Jing walked to the sun-drying field. Today's weather is not bad, there is a crescent moon and a few sparse stars above his head, so he can see the road clearly.
Xu Jing originally wanted to go out, but just when he reached the center of the grain drying field, he heard Liang Guotao and Guo Yingzhen's small voices talking in the room, and his name seemed to be mentioned in it.He paused, walked back gently, and quietly squatted under the window to listen.
"...Old Liang, you said Xiaohe is awake now, should we send a letter to his house?"
"Come on, he finally woke up, and he has to tell his family."
"What will his family do if they get a letter to take him back? That's [-] catties of rice and ten yuan. Dashi and his three brothers and sisters will start school soon. Without this income, we may not be able to afford it."
"I've sent them all over, and his family will definitely not take them back. Besides, their family's places have been given out, so where can I take Xiaohe back?" Although Liang Guotao is taciturn, he is not stupid. , He has always been the one who decides on major family matters, "Just wait and see, the news of Xiaohe's sobriety has been sent back, and their family has to entrust us to continue raising them."
"Really?" Guo Yingzhen lowered her voice a bit, "Which family would be willing to raise their child in someone else's home?"
"After a while, you will know that Xiaohe goes to school here, and they will pay more for her monthly foster care fee." Speaking of this, Liang Guotao reminded his wife, "Xiaohe is not stupid now, we treat him well these days A little, to save people from chewing their tongues."
"I know that. Seeing his ghostly appearance, how dare I treat him badly? You..." Guo Yingzhen muttered.
Xu Jing heard it in a fog outside, what quota?Why are you sure you won't take him back?He concentrated on trying to hear more clearly, but Guo Yingzhen and his wife inside changed the topic, so Xu Jing had no choice but to rub his numb legs, and walked out lightly according to the original plan.
The river next to the Renyuan living area is a tributary of the whole river. Although the flow is relatively gentle, the river is three to four meters wide and the center of the river is more than three meters deep. It is very dangerous for children of a few years old to swim here.
