Chapter 314: The Capricious Settlement Leader
Chapter 314: The Capricious Settlement Leader
“Cough cough cough…” The middle-aged woman opposite looked like she was about to cough out her lungs.
The cough just now was not that serious, it was too fake,
Seeing that she was about to cough, the young girl next to the middle-aged woman spoke up.
"I'm sorry, my mother has been coughing badly recently. Please come with me to rest for a while and have some breakfast."
Sister Hu had no choice but to follow the young girl out of the door and into the guest room.
The young girl went out to arrange meals. Tang Yu stuck his head out to look at the bright sun in the sky, then turned back to ask Sister Hu, "Lower Third District, I haven't seen a single bird in the past two days. Are there really birds that would settle down and sing in this shabby environment?"
Sister Hu raised her eyebrows and smiled, "How can there be no birds? It's just that they won't land on branches, but in everyone's stomach.
If it dares to fall, it will never fly again in the lower three zones."
They said they would deliver breakfast, but an hour later no one showed up.
Tang Yu directly activated the illusion array and slipped outside the original house.
The middle-aged female leader in the room held the doctor's hand and said, "Xiao Deng, we have food and drink here. We will never let you fight with those idiots. What's "to find a home for all the infected people"?
Our settlement is our home. How can the place where we grew up not be our home?
I am not very ambitious. I usually restrain the children in the settlement and don't let them go near the orphanage.
What good place can that be? You guys, once you enter the city, you never want to come back.
In fact, who didn't come from the orphanage in our lower three districts?
After working hard for a few years, I was used by others and was used cleanly.
It would be better not to go down that path in the first place.”
Doctor Deng smiled and shook his head, "Once people have seen civilization, how can they be willing to return to the wilderness?
Chief, you are a smart man. You have always known that entering the orphanage is actually a screening, and entering the patrol is also a screening.
But even you would not dare to blatantly tell everyone in the gathering place that you are actually selecting only those who can enter the upper three areas to be pigs.
You can only prevent the children from going out day and night, but you haven't done anything to stop them.
Let them flee to the inspection and screening,
It’s the three meals a day of saltwort in the lower three districts, and the fate of coughing and death hanging over our heads.”
The middle-aged woman clenched her teeth and swallowed the cough that was about to burst out.
"Hey, Dr. Deng, the people who see the most clearly are the most tired. How tiring it must be for you to be sober all day. Anyway, we are all in our forties and at the end of our lives. Isn't it good to be a little confused?"
Doctor Deng sighed and stood up to pour a glass of water for the leader. "Don't hold back your cough all the time. It's not good to hold it back too much.
I'll go check on Lao Hu first. Lao Hu came over and was chased away by you before he could even tell me what the mission was.
I don't know if your little mischievous kid is playing tricks on anyone.
Old Hu understands you and knows that you are a mischievous person, but those two young men don’t seem to have good tempers. Don’t cry if they beat up your precious daughter.”
The old leader's stern face suddenly disappeared. "Let's go and take a look. The guy holding the trident doesn't look good. Don't fight him."
Tang Yu, who was invisible, was speechless. He looked down at the trident in his hand. What was wrong? She didn't look like she had a bad temper at all.
Tang Yu ran back to Lao Hu's room. In front of Lao Hu was a plate of mushy and strange-colored food. Lao Hu ate it without changing his expression.
The curly-haired girl next to him was holding a wooden spoon, staring at the plate in hesitation.
The girl next to him, who was about 20 years old, introduced with a smile,
"I select high-quality gerbils, mash them into a paste, dry them, add dried caterpillars, roast them, and finally grind them. This is the new nutritious meal I invented..."
The curly-haired woman felt like vomiting, but didn't want to be looked down upon by the girl, so she scooped up a spoonful with difficulty, closed her eyes, and tried to put it into her mouth tremblingly.
Lao Hu put down his empty plate, took the curly-haired woman's plate, and continued eating.
"Okay, go get your mom, it's time to get down to business."
The girl was a little disappointed when she saw that they were not embarrassed. She turned around and saw Dr. Deng and her mother coming over.
"Mom, why did you go out? It's so windy outside."
The leader tapped the girl's head with his finger, and the girl stuck out her tongue, "Mom, it's the mud of the saltwort bird, not the mud of the gerbil caterpillar."
Tang Yu touched his chin, luckily he was not here, otherwise if she heard that he asked her to eat rat jerky, he would really beat this girl up.
The middle-aged leader smiled and met Sister Hu again, feeling that they had met each other too late. It must be said that her acting skills are very good.
"Old Hu, you really are my best friend. You trust my daughter so much that you eat without changing your expression."
Then the two smiling middle-aged women looked at each other and turned their heads away imperceptibly. Alas, the smile of the old man opposite was so fake.
Tang Yu found a place to remove his invisibility, and returned carrying the trident as if nothing had happened.
The topic in the room has turned to whether Dr. Deng should leave.
"Alas, many of us here are ill and need Dr. Deng's help. We can't live without Dr. Deng here,"
"I have a lot of children and I really need Dr. Deng's help. Chief, you have raised children before, and you know that raising children is not an easy task. Dr. Deng is also a cultural teacher, you see..."
The leader changed the subject. "You are short of teachers? Hahaha, I have plenty of teachers here. Tell me, are you short of math teachers or Chinese teachers? I have both."
Old Hu smiled and said, "Ah, then are there any teachers who know junior high school math, physics, chemistry, and high school knowledge? We have no shortage of kindergarten teachers."
The leader was not happy. "It's enough to know how to count, add, subtract, multiply and divide. No matter how much you know, you still can't..."
The leader was frightened by Lao Hu's smiling face as he looked directly at her. She swallowed back the words that were about to come out of her mouth, "Well... um... here, Dr. Deng has the highest living standard. He eats white flour and drinks pure water. You guys are busy all day long. How can you provide Dr. Deng with good living conditions?"
Tang Yu rolled his eyes and put out a large table of dishes. "Our Doctor Deng has perfect meals every day at our place."
Everyone, including Dr. Deng, looked at the huge table of food with confusion.
The leader even suppressed his cough and asked, "What is perfect?"
Tang Yu glanced at her sideways, "There are steamed lamb, steamed bear paws, steamed deer tail, roasted duck, roasted chicken, roasted goose, ..."
The menu Tutu gave her was quite useful. Just reading it could scare the group of people.
“Choose ten random dishes from the menu every day and that’s perfect.
My table of ten dishes is Dr. Deng’s meal standard.”
The leader was very moved when he saw the delicious food on the table, which was rich in oil and sauce and smelled fresh and fragrant.
"Xiao Deng, you said this place is a wilderness before, but I didn't agree.
I didn't expect that you gave up this standard of living and came to me.
Ideals are really magical, they can make people accept this kind of gap. "
