Chapter 300: Chapter 300 Mao Sui Volunteers Himself
"How lovely has the weather been these past few days? Has there been anything unusual?"
Jhiang Yuan wasn’t talking nonsense—since they had come to Changming Village.
Although it was still cold, the weather was crisp and clear.
There was no snow, nor the gloomy overcast feeling.
She had begun to think the apocalypse would just pass by like this.
"Indeed, the recent conditions have been good, but is there a possibility that this is like the calm before a storm?"
His words caught Jhiang Yuan completely off guard.
Staring with wide eyes, she looked at him intently.
"In any case, be careful. I just have a feeling that something’s not right."
"Yeah, take care of yourself, too."
After the conversation, Jhiang Yuan hurried back.
Jhiang Xingzhi had already arrived home and, noticing that no one was there, he started to worry.
"Dad, you’re back?"
"Hm, daughter, where’s your mom and Xiao Nuan?"
"Inside!"
With a knowing wink from Jhiang Yuan, Jhiang Xingzhi understood immediately, and the two of them closed the door behind them.
They went to the inner room and then entered the space.
Mom had already prepared the meal, and Xiao Nuan was running around in the yard.
This moment of warmth made her involuntarily relax...
"Mommy..."
...
Life at home was so cozy, but there was still work to do in the afternoon.
That afternoon Jhiang Yuan went to tell Sister Ying to have her mom join her at work the next day, while her dad stayed home to look after the child.
As she left at noon, Fan Qing seemed a bit unnatural, but she didn’t pay it any mind.
Zhang Kaiyang also came out and exchanged a few words with everyone.
He was recuperating from an injury and hadn’t left the house for several days, bored out of his mind.
In the afternoon, the doctor brought over some new mycelium that he said was improved.
They were told to keep planting it, and she sighed quietly to herself, guessing it would be several more days at this rate.
"By the way, from now on, Fan Qing will be in charge of the work on your side."
"Why should she?"
The speaker was a woman caked in heavy makeup, seemingly named Dan.
She heard another girl calling her Dandan.
The doctor glanced over with a cold look and pushed his glasses up, scholarly yet indifferent.
"Doctor, I also graduated from university, and I was the secretary of the Youth League Committee at school, so I have strong organizational skills," she said, moving slightly forward as she spoke.
Jhiang Yuan felt like she was seeing another Fan Yao, but this woman seemed to have miscalculated; the doctor wasn’t buying what she was selling.
"Fan Qing has very strong clinical work experience; that’s the decision. You all should cooperate well."
With that, he left.
Fan Qing stood at the front, seemingly unfazed by the turn of events.
"Everyone, let’s get back to work!"
"Hmph!"
Dandan was clearly not pleased, and Zhou Jin glanced at her.
It was as if she had found an outlet for her frustration, and she immediately stopped working.
"What are you looking at? Be careful, or I’ll gouge your eyes out."
Geez, this person definitely had a violent streak.
"I advise you to calm down. Have you forgotten what happened to Sister Zuo?"
In her worldview, Sister Zuo was already gone.
She was nearly done for by the time they took her to the doctor; what good could have come from it?
When she first arrived, she had thought about whether she would see Sister Zuo.
But after several days, she had given up hope.
At the mention of Sister Zuo, Dandan indeed quieted down.
Jhiang Yuan also bowed her head to continue working, while Fan Qing walked over with a resentful expression, squatting next to her.
"Sister Yuan, you’re not upset with me, right?"
"What’s there to blame you for?"
It was baffling why this girl would actually come over and ask her. She must be feeling guilty.
"Qingqing, we’re all happy that you’ve been given such a responsibility.
In the future, make sure to do well!"
Jhiang Yuan didn’t say much. People strive for higher places, and water flows to lower ground.
She could understand that. Fan Qing must have gone there at noon.
If it weren’t for presenting herself proactively, the professor would never have known about her.
"Sister Yuan, I really didn’t mean to..."
"What are you talking about? Qingqing, this is a good thing. Even if you were honest with me, I wouldn’t stop you. In fact, I would help you."
Her words made Fan Qing feel even more ashamed.
But Jhiang Yuan didn’t want to continue the conversation.
When they were in Lushan Garden, everyone stuck together out of necessity.
Now, with a new environment, it was time for everyone to pursue their own lives.
She had no right to criticize others, and her way of thinking was different from theirs. It just wasn’t necessary.
After all, no banquet in the world could last forever. It was time to move on.
Dandan was upset, but she still had to work.
Fan Qing may not have shown anything, but Jhiang Yuan knew that this person kept everything in mind.
If that Dandan didn’t learn to hold back, she probably wouldn’t have any good days ahead.
However, none of this was related to her anymore.
Jhiang Yuan had her plans set in her mind. Her goal was simple: to ensure her family’s safety.
Xiao Nuan was still young, but when she got bigger, she could be sent to tutoring classes.
The prerequisite was, that this side could actually be relied upon.
Until the evening when it was time to knock off, Fan Qing still had to report to the professor.
She felt a bit apologetic and told Jhiang Yuan to go ahead first.
"Okay, then I’ll head back first. Be careful on your own later..."
"Mm!"
Hearing the concern, Fan Qing felt somewhat better.
Jhiang Yuan left, and Zhou Jin went with her.
As soon as they stepped outside, they were greeted by a burst of wind carrying flecks of snow.
The chill hit them in an instant, and she couldn’t help but reach up to cover her eyes.
"Goodness, why is the wind so strong? It was fine when I came here!"
Zhou Jin exclaimed, finding it just as odd.
The temperature in the greenhouse was high due to both the natural geothermal heat and artificial warming.
So, some of the snow around them hadn’t frozen.
Even though it had been swept to the sides, it only took a moment for the wind to carry it aloft.
"Yeah, it’s so sudden!"
"Look at the drifting snow. If you didn’t know better, you’d think it had started snowing again."
Zhou Jin became friendlier with her and started to talk more.
"Let’s hurry up and get going. It’ll probably get even colder soon."
The wind was not mild; the trees outside swayed along with it.
Everything else was alright, but near the fence, there were three weeping willows.
Their branches, gentle and long, began to whip around wildly as the wind passed.
The sight of those branches, coated in a layer of white frost, dancing in the air was indeed unpleasant.
Jhiang Yuan was headed to get food, and she was quite rushed for time.
In the dining hall, she kept looking for Xiao Yun.
Not seeing her there at that moment, she wasn’t overly concerned about this woman.
It was enough to recognize her on sight; after all, everyone was heavily clothed, and everyone looked bulky.
Moreover, ill-fitting clothes were quite normal.
Not only that, but she didn’t see Liang Kang either.
She wondered if he had come at all, a question rising in her heart.
Ye Mianmian arrived a bit later than the others, but there were hardly any people now, so she waited for her to go back together.
Similarly, she too was looking for Xiao Yun.
Even more so, she intentionally spoke loudly in hopes of drawing her attention.
