"If they really came to arrest Meng Peiyu, why didn't they contact us?"
"Yes, and they're still so far away, there's no sign of an ambush."
"If they hadn't been roasting rabbit there, we wouldn't have found them at all."
"Forget about them, as long as they don't bother us!"
Qiao Manman shut out the voice in her mind and happily bit off a large piece of meat from the rabbit's leg.
"Mmm, delicious! Comrade Ji, your cooking is superb!"
"Don't flatter me, sister-in-law. My skills are not even half as good as Deputy Regiment Commander Lu's!"
Mentioning Lu Yuan makes Qiao Manman lose half her happiness; even rabbit meat tastes bland.
"Sister-in-law, did I say something wrong? I'm sorry, I didn't mean to."
Seeing that her expression was off, Ji Ming apologized cautiously.
Qiao Manman smiled and shook her head: "No, I just miss Lu Yuan a little."
Ji Ming and Xia Zhao exchanged a glance, and a faint smile appeared on their lips simultaneously.
One thought that Deputy Regiment Commander Lu was lucky to have a wife who always thought about him.
One thought the younger sister-in-law was warm and generous, even expressing her longing in a straightforward way.
The three of them roasted six rabbits and then extinguished the fire.
Ji Ming wrapped the two leftovers in leaves and put them in the car: "We can't start a fire today, so use these sparingly. They're enough for two meals."
"There's no need to be so frugal. I have food in my suitcase. I didn't invite you out here to suffer."
"Being out here might make washing up a little inconvenient, but everything else is fine."
The two smiled but neither responded.
I wondered how much food could fit in such a small box. They didn't know how long they'd be out there; we needed to plan ahead.
"Don't disbelieve me, there really is no food left. Let's go home."
Anyway, arresting Meng Peiyu wasn't an order from higher-ups. If they can arrest her, they can; if not, so be it. Don't worry about it.
Xia Zhao nodded: "I'll do whatever you say, sister-in-law!"
Qiao Manman stretched in the sun, thinking how fresh the air was in the 1970s.
It's a bit boring; with nothing to do, I can only pluck leaves to play with.
Xia Zhao asked her to sit in the car, but Qiao Manman shook her head: "My back hurts from sitting all night, I want to move around!"
"Alright, sister-in-law, if you're tired, go sit in the car."
And so they waited until evening.
Qiao Manman took out two cans of food and some dried steamed buns from her suitcase.
The three of them ate rabbit meat together and ate until their bellies were round.
At 8 p.m., Qiu Junfeng came over to deliver millet porridge: "Our team leader was worried that it would be inconvenient for you to cook here, so he asked me to bring you some food."
"Thank you, Comrade Qiu!" Qiao Manman opened the lunchbox, smelled it to make sure there was nothing wrong with it, unscrewed the can, and poured it in.
I took two cans of food from my suitcase and handed them to them: "Thank you, take these back to supplement your vitamins!"
Qiu Junfeng hesitated for a while before taking the canned food: "Thank you, comrade! It's late at night, please be careful!"
Qiao Manman nodded: "You too, you should act within your capabilities!"
Qiu Junfeng didn't understand why Qiao Manman said that, so he went back and told the captain the truth.
Ren Shaohui thought for a moment: "The guy surnamed Meng might have accomplices, or he might be carrying weapons. In any case, everyone be careful!"
"Captain, can I try some canned fruit?" Qiu Junfeng licked his lips: "These yellow peaches are incredibly delicious!"
"No label, did you make this yourself?"
"The woman didn't say anything, she just told us to take some vitamins!"
"Here's what you do, you take a slice and try it yourself first. If there's no problem, then you can share it with the others!"
"Okay, thanks, Captain!"
Qiu Junfeng unscrewed the can and took out a piece of yellow peach.
The golden flesh exuded the fragrance of peaches, and the sweet taste made his soul float in the air.
"My goodness, these peaches are so delicious! They're so soft and sweet, and so fragrant."
"Really?" Ren Shaohui was skeptical, but he didn't refute it.
Hearing this from a distance, Qiao Manman smiled faintly.
She thought to herself that these peaches grew up in her own space, so how could they be ordinary?
Furthermore, it contained elixirs that could improve a person's physical condition.
It's fine if they eat it, but if they throw it away...
Fortunately, they didn't waste it.
Qiao Manman shut off the voice in her mind and asked the system to help monitor her.
As the night breeze gently blew, Qiao Manman missed Lu Yuan terribly.
I wanted to write him a note, but there were two third wheels next to me.
It wasn't until late at night, when Xia Zhao and Ji Ming were drowsy, that Qiao Manman gave them a chance to communicate with Lu Yuan after she drugged them.
"Honey, what are you doing? I miss you so much!"
Lu Yuan turned his head, looked at the darkness outside the car window, and wrote down: "Wait for me!"
When Qiao Manman saw those two words, her heart skipped a beat, and her eyes even felt a little warm.
She didn't even want to save on teleportation scrolls, so she put the note with the word "good" written on it into a bag of chocolates and teleported it over.
In the quiet, dark carriage, Lu Yuan suddenly felt a bulge in his pocket. He reached out, squeezed it, and smiled knowingly.
He took out a chocolate, unwrapped it, and put it in his mouth. The melting syrup warmed him throughout the dark night.
It was late at night. Qiao Manman put Xia Zhao and Jiming into her space, washed up, and then put on a movie.
I would watch until I was tired, then sleep; after waking up, I would do other things. In short, I never let myself be idle.
***
After driving all day, Meng Peiyu was exhausted and dizzy.
"Miss, it's not safe to drive at night. Let's find a place to rest for a while!"
"My heart was beating really fast, and I wanted to get to Dong Province as soon as possible."
"It won't make a difference if you take a short break. Why don't you rest and I'll drive?"
Meng Peiyu rubbed her forehead: "Never mind, let's rest for a bit, we're out of oil anyway!"
The car was parked on the side of the road, and Meng Peiyu got out of the car and looked up at the moon.
The moon is fullest on the 16th of the lunar month, but after so much wandering, she no longer knew the difference between the lunar and solar calendars. All she knew was that she had to leave as soon as possible.
"Miss, how about I go out and see if I can get some oil?"
The so-called "teasing" will definitely involve bloodshed.
They didn't have a letter of introduction, and the vehicle was of dubious origin. Without using some special means, they simply couldn't have obtained such an important commodity as gasoline.
Meng Peiyu let out a long breath: "No rush!"
Close your eyes and communicate with the system: "I need gasoline, check in!"
"Congratulations, host, you have obtained 100L of gasoline."
Meng Peiyu stared blankly at the plastic bucket in the space: "I haven't signed for anything I wanted in a long time, so how come this time, I just asked for gasoline and it came out right away!"
"Host, this is random. You might just be having a lucky streak lately and your wishes might come true!"
"Then I want something delicious!"
"Congratulations, host! You have received 100 packs of instant noodles!"
Meng Peiyu's eyes widened: "I want weapons!"
"Congratulations, host! You have obtained 100 Green Dragon Crescent Blades!"
Just as Meng Peiyu was about to get excited, she caught a glimpse of a plastic toy knife in the corner of the room.
Her smile froze on her face, and tears welled up but wouldn't fall.
"System, is this how you play me?"
"Host, the items you sign in for are falling randomly, and the system cannot control them."
Besides, the Green Dragon Crescent Blade is a weapon too, so why are you complaining about it?
