The end of the world is coming: I have a safe house

Chapter 116 Because She's a Crow's Mouth

Shen Zhi took out the fried eggs in the pot: "Where are your parents?"

The girl tugged at the long clothes on her body: "Auntie said, Mom and Dad have been eaten."

"Then you lived with your aunt before you came here?"

"And uncle and brother."

Shen Zhi said that he understood.

The conversation stops there.

There must be a reason for a little girl to appear next to the shop inexplicably.

Listening to what she said now, it is not difficult to guess that the child's parents died, and after being taken in by his uncle and aunt, he was disliked, and finally he was abandoned here.

Next, the child's whereabouts should be carefully considered. After all, if she can be thrown away once, she will definitely be thrown away a second time. Even if she is sent back, she may not live long.

After preparing the breakfast, Shen Zhi didn't rush to ask Tao Li to eat, but warmed the food in the pot, and then brought the rest of the breakfast to the dining table.

The girl watched helplessly, swallowed and obediently returned to the guest room.

Shen Zhi was a little strange, and after peeling a boiled egg, he called her out of the house: "Why don't you come out to eat?"

"I didn't work today, and my aunt said that if I didn't work, I would have nothing to eat."

"Then what do you usually do?"

"I can carry boxes, barrels, and I can carry water."

Then she tightened her grip on the bed sheets cautiously: "There are no such things here, so I can't eat."

Shen Zhi looked at her scarred hands, and then opened the door of the guest room wide.

"Come out to eat, there are not so many rules here, if you feel sorry, you can do something for that sister when she wakes up."

The girl wanted to shake her head, but was tempted by the smell of breakfast to swallow her saliva, and then obediently followed behind Shen Zhi.

After eating, the two turned on the mute and watched TV in the living room. Tao Li slept until one o'clock in the afternoon before getting up rubbing his head.

"I know you won't wake up too early. I put the rice in the pot for you and it's stuffy. You can eat it now."

Shen Zhi helped her go to the kitchen to serve breakfast, while Tao Li went to the bathroom to wash up.

The cold water hit her face, and she became sober.

Walking to the dining table, the little girl stood stiffly behind her, lowering her head and daring not to say anything.

Shen Zhi sighed: "What are you going to do?"

Tao Li stuffed the egg white into her mouth, and then fed the egg yolk to Shen Zhi: "What else can I do? After Yunyun comes next time, I will help her find a home and send her away."

It's great, you can form an egg mate with your boyfriend.

Shen Zhi picked up the water glass and took a sip of water: "I think it's better to find another place for her. She must have been deliberately abandoned here, and even if she was sent back, it might not work."

Tao Li turned to look at the little girl, and nodded helplessly: "Understood, let's wait for Yunyun to come back, and see if there is anyone with better family conditions who is willing to take her in."

The breakfast was quickly wiped out, Tao Li narrowed his eyes and looked at the little girl who was punished to stand with her head bowed.

I don't have any suitable clothes for her here, so until now she is still wearing the cotton clothes that were already on her body, and the stains on them are still very clear.

"You can work obviously, why did your aunt send you out?"

After all, there is no requirement that child labor is not allowed in the base. The little girl in front of her looks like she is only in the third grade of elementary school, and she is very thin.

You can still work without eating much, which is equivalent to a free labor force. Don't be in vain, okay?
And just by looking at the long padded jacket on the little girl, the person who threw her here hadn't been cruel enough to freeze her to death, and things might have turned around a bit.

"Aunt said I was a crow's mouth."

Tao Li is at a loss, what is this and what is it?Can the reason why Crow's Mouth is so outrageous be told?

"Is Crow's Mouth going to put you here? Why?"

The little girl grabbed the corner of her clothes nervously, no matter how much Tao Li asked, she refused to open her mouth to answer.

Sighing helplessly, Tao Li went back to the house and changed his clothes: "Let's go, I'll take you out for a walk and give you some medicine."

The three went downstairs and saw Qian Fang in the pharmacy on the fourth floor.

"Hey, when did there be an extra customer in the store?"

She came over and pinched the little girl's face, very familiar.

Tao Li didn't explain, just picked up a chilblain ointment from the side, and applied it on the little girl.

This tube of ointment is specially prepared for customers who cannot afford ointment, and they have a limit of 10 minutes in which they can apply good medicine to their wounds and leave.

The iodophor cotton swabs and hydrogen peroxide in the store are also used for public use after opening, which can be regarded as some special care for the residents of the Sunshine Base.

After helping the girl with the medicine, Tao Li took her to the first floor to watch the store. The three adults gathered together to fight the landlord. The little girl sat by the glass wall and looked out, saying nothing.

"It's snowing. I don't know how long the heavy snow will last. I hope it will stop before I return to the base."

Qian Fang threw the cards out, his mouth pouted, obviously in a bad mood.

Tao Li recalled the weather forecast he had seen, and said with some regret: "It should not stop, but recently the rooms are empty, and there are no customer reservations, so you can stay here for a few more days until the snow stops. Let's go."

If the snow is too heavy, the road will definitely be blocked. Even if she leaves in the snow, she will not be able to go far and will be trapped on the way.

Qian Fang smiled gratefully, and the three continued to play cards to pass the time.

The snow outside the store was getting bigger and bigger, and the gray-black ground was also buried by snowflakes, but now only the upper layer of snow can be seen, and the color of the ground is half invisible.

Tao Li was also a little tired from playing, and threw out the last few cards in his hand: "Win, four twos."

Qian Fang wanted to cry without tears: "Why do you have such good luck every time, I lost all afternoon, and I just won."

Tao Li bared his teeth and smiled: "God favors me."

The three of them sat facing each other like this, but they didn't want to do anything.

so boring.

Qian Fang waved his hand: "No, I'm going to build a snowman outside. Anyway, the snow is thick enough now, and it would be nice to build a snowman."

Seeing that she was about to go out, the girl with her head down blinked her big eyes: "Sister, be careful, don't fall."

Qian Fang smiled at her and walked out the door: "How could it be, the ground here won't be slippery even if it snows, I'll go!"

The next moment she sat down on the snow, fell and squatted, and sat on the ground for a long time before getting up.

Tao Li glanced at the girl, who blinked and then looked away, carefully covering her mouth.

"Are you okay? I'll help you go upstairs and change your clothes."

She hurriedly stood up and walked towards Qian Fang, but the little girl turned her gaze over again: "Sister, don't trip over the chair."

Tao Li immediately tripped over the chair at her feet, if Shen Zhi hadn't caught her with mental strength in time, she might have fallen worse than Qian Fang.
