The Sabbath Chapter 90: The first meal
It's not wrong that Hana hugged Ronggui before going to bed at night, but she rolled and rolled in the middle of the night, and rolled to Xiaomei's side in the middle of the night.
So, when Ronggui woke up the next day, what he saw was Xiaomei who was hugged by a little girl with a blank face.
"Pfft!" Rong Gui was delighted.
"That is to say, it is the body of a robot now. If it was still my previous body, my sleeping position would be worse than Hana's! The little girl hasn't woken up yet, so please stop moving and let her sleep for a while. " Crawling out of the bed, Ronggui tucked the corner of the quilt into Xiaomei.
Then he went to open the windows. Except for the window facing their bed, he opened all the other windows. Although the robot does not produce exhaust gas, the habit of being a human is too stubborn. Growing up in a large house in a crowded orphanage, Ronggui has long been used to opening the windows first thing in the morning.
When opening the balcony window, Ronggui suddenly paused.
Turning his head, he said to Xiaomei: "You sleep a little longer, I'll go to work first"
Xiaomei:
Well, in Xiaomei's mind, she has already replaced the word "work" in Ronggui's words with "destroy".
But this time he really guessed wrong.
Ronggui really didn't go down to cause damage! No, it's work.
Humming a little song, he opened the glass door of the terrace, and Ronggui happily walked down the small simple stairs outside. He quickly came to the small piece of land that the landlady allowed them to use. He was running outside yesterday. After a whole day, there was no time to tidy up the land. They simply put the flower pots with ground beans and apple seedlings here, and by the way, there were also the flowers that Kiki gave him.
Stretched out his fingers to hook the new leaves of the apple seedlings hanging with fresh dew, Ronggui touched a small mushroom nearby, and then he looked at the wooden fence next to him.
What separates their small piece of land from the landlord's other land is a tall wooden fence, which is custom-made with long wooden boards, and the gaps are covered with vines. , one side is the house, and the other three sides are this kind of fence. The fence is very high, and the vines on it are extremely lush. They isolate the land under Ronggui's feet into a separate small yard, and normal people can't stand in the yard. When I saw the situation next door, let alone Ronggui who is only 1.1 meters tall now.
But he still saw the situation next door when he opened the window upstairs just now.
He saw the man again.
When I opened the window yesterday, I found someone working below.
Ronggui felt a little scared when he met the other party for the first time yesterday, but after having close contact with the landlady's wife yesterday, he suddenly felt that many things might just be him scaring himself, so when Ronggui When Gui found out that the other party happened to be working downstairs next door to him today, he thought of coming down to say hello.
But—Ronggui looked at the tall fence, the fence is too high
Besides, you have to prepare a gift for the meeting, right?
After thinking about it, Ronggui saw the flower pots next to him. The flower pots made by Xiaomei are very strong, and it is absolutely no problem to step on them. Then, Ronggui saw the potted flower that Qiqi gave him. It is a small blue-purple flower that is very easy to grow, and as long as it is watered enough, occasionally fertilized and exposed to the light, it can keep blooming. At this moment, the potted flower Seven flowers the size of Ronggui's fist bloomed.
Turning a pot of ground beans planted upside down, pouring out all the ground beans inside and rolling them on the ground beside him, Ronggui then carefully picked the best flower that bloomed.
Then, he pushed the flower pot to the side of the fence, jumped up to try it, and found that the height was still not enough, so he had to empty another flower pot, and piled up another layer, to match the tiptoes, This time, the height is enough.
Standing on top of the fence, Ronggui tremblingly saw the man next door who was working seriously.
"Hey! Good morning, I'm Ronggui who moved in yesterday. The person who moved in with me is Xiaomei. We will live here for about three months, that"
"This is a meeting gift!" With difficulty, he raised his hand holding the flower high, Ronggui finally passed the flower over, but who knows——
Probably because the method of stacking the flower pots just now was wrong, the flower pot under his feet suddenly shook, his body tilted, and with a "click", Ronggui's head disappeared from the top of the fence.
The flowerpot was misplaced, and Ronggui fell down in his yard. Fortunately, he is a robot, and this level of impact can't break him.
Unyielding, Ronggui hurriedly stacked the flower pots again, and when he climbed up again, he saw the blue-purple flowers falling on the black ground, and the man next door standing blankly in front of the flowers.
The man was wearing very thick clothes and a sun hat on his head. His whole body was tightly covered. Ronggui couldn't see his face at all, but he could only see that the other party was a burly person.
"Well, the flower is a gift! I'm sorry it fell down, I can't reach it, please pick it up yourself!"
Accompanied by a loud cry and the sound of porcelain colliding, Ronggui fell down again.
This time, he couldn't quickly put the flower pots back on top of each other and climb up again: the flower pots were cracked.
Ronggui was a little dumbfounded.
However, you have to finish what you have to say, otherwise it would be rude
Therefore, Ronggui said two more words to the other side at the top of his voice, probably to explain his situation: the flower pot used as a ladder was broken, and he couldn't show up in the past, and shaking hands was more like an interview, Fortunately, the gift has already been delivered, so please don't dislike it
Ronggui babbled for a long time.
Just as the little robot was talking there, the tall and burly masked man on the other side of the fence that he couldn't see slowly bent down, stretched out his gloved hand, He picked up the blue-purple flowers that had fallen to the ground.
Holding the flowers, the man stood there for a long, long time.
——
After talking for a long time, the other party said no, and I don't know if the other party has accepted my greeting gift, but it's normal not to accept it, after all, I am a strange person no matter how I look at it
Thinking of the experience of falling when he just showed up twice, Ronggui almost wanted to cover his face.
Sighing, seeing the cracks on the flower pots on the ground, Ronggui's mood became even more depressed, and then he saw the ground beans that he threw on the ground indiscriminately
Well, I really can't do anything well, it's like saying hello to someone who might be a neighbor, and I ended up tossing so many things
Sighing, Ronggui was about to pick up "mushrooms" when suddenly a pair of mechanical feet appeared in front of his eyes.
Xiaomei came down at some point.
Sure enough, she was doing sabotage——Xiaomei didn't speak, but she said so in those sky-like eyes.
Blocking the two mushrooms in front of his eyes, Ronggui's shoulders collapsed, and the whole robot froze.
"Why don't you sleep a little longer? It's still early," the little robot whispered, burying its head between its legs.
"You opened the window before you went downstairs, the sound is so loud, how could I not hear it?" Xiaomei's cold voice was above Ronggui's head at first, and in the process of saying this, his voice became louder and louder, Getting closer and closer, when Ronggui exposed one eye from between his legs, sure enough, he saw that Xiaomei had already squatted down and started to tidy up the scattered beans on the ground.
Without other reproaches, Xiaomei went straight to work.
Holding a small shovel in her hand, Xiaomei loosened the soil first, and then planted the ground beans in it one by one. Seeing Ronggui circling behind his buttocks because she didn't know what to do, Xiaomei went He said calmly: "Go and pour out the ground beans in other flower pots, just like these."
He said, with the shovel in his hand, he pointed at the ground beans that Ronggui had poured out indiscriminately before.
Received the order, Ronggui seemed relieved to have a job to do, and he immediately ran to the side to move the flower pots.
Xiaomei worked quickly and well. Before long, there were rows of ground beans on the empty ground. Apple seedlings were placed in the corner, and the purple flowers sent by Qiqi were blooming next to the apple seedlings. .
"Look at this job, Xiaomei, you are a child from the countryside." Ronggui, who was once again shocked by Xiaomei's ability, couldn't help but sigh with emotion.
"Country Child" Xiaomei:
Actually, he just watched others do it, plus turning the pages of the book.
Not going to explain too much to Ronggui, Xiaomei went over to look at the broken flowerpot soon.
The soil here is not suitable for firing pots, these are just cracked pots that can be repaired until they get new replacement containers.
After thinking about it, Xiaomei found some metal wires and wove them around the cracked flowerpot, and a new flowerpot was born.
When Xiaomei finished all the work, it was only eight o'clock. When the two little robots climbed up the stairs again, Hana just woke up rubbing her eyes.
"Hao Xiang smells the smell of Hao Xiang food." The little girl woke up because of the smell of food.
Ronggui was stunned for a moment, and then realized:
"Ah! The landlady will still cook for us, right? Whether it is or not, let's go down quickly?"
Hana nodded vigorously.
When Xiaomei was packing up the tools that were going to be taken away today, Ronggui was helping Hana braid her pigtails. It was true that she was a bit clumsy in other aspects, but Ronggui was always capable when it came to stinky things. good.
Although Ronggui's braids are rough, they can't stand the trendy style
In addition, the clothes given to Hana by the landlord's wife are really meticulous in workmanship and the stitches are gorgeous. The little girl Hana, who was originally unattractive, has become a lot cute
"Very good" made the little girl turn around in front of his eyes, and Ronggui gestured "ok" to Hana in satisfaction.
Although she couldn't understand the gesture, it didn't prevent Hana from understanding the possible meaning of the gesture, so she also compared the same gesture to Ronggui!
While the two of them were smug, Xiaomei not only packed up her own things, but also tidied up the bedding, and when Ronggui was done, the three of them went downstairs together.
In the living room on the first floor, the old lady was already sitting in the rocking chair. She was still knitting, but there was an extra pair of glasses on the bridge of her nose, black, and they were sunglasses.
Ronggui was stunned for a long time, and then realized that the sunglasses should be to cover the white eyes, right?
And the place where the red shrimp rice was put yesterday was indeed food.
There are also two bowls, but this time there is only a handful of tableware inside.
Today's meal still looks terrible: green and mushy, with some burnt black things floating on the surface
However, the only girl among the three who can smell the smell has bright eyes:
"Smells good!"
"Let's make do with it. The little girl can eat, so I prepared two bowls for you." The old woman said calmly as she continued knitting.
It was said that the big eater didn't care, so Hana laughed a few times, and immediately ran to Xiaoyuan's table to eat.
While Hana was eating, Xiaomei had automatically gone to the place where Ronggui found other problems yesterday to repair the doors and windows, and Ronggui was free, so he decided to chat with the old lady.
"Mrs. Zora (note: the last name of the landlady's wife), when I went to work in the field this morning, I saw a gentleman working next door. Is he also a tenant here? Or is it your relative?" When Rong Gui asked this question, he didn't think much about it, he just asked when he thought about it.
The old woman's fingers dexterously wound coils one by one, and she said slowly: "He is not a tenant, nor is he a relative of mine, he is just an employee."
"I'm getting old, and my eyes are inconvenient. I need someone to help me with the work in the herbal fields outside."
"What's the matter, did he hinder you?"
When asking this sentence, although the old man's face didn't move a bit, Rong Gui felt the creepy feeling again, is it an illusion? Uh, it must be just an illusion, right?
Quickly shaking his shoulders, Rong Gui replied: "No, I just said hello, because I saw him the day before yesterday, and I thought that the other party might live here, and people who will meet often in the future, don't say hello. Greetings are impolite”
"But I didn't have any good things, so I gave the other party a flower."
Holding his head, Ronggui laughed loudly.
The creepy feeling before suddenly disappeared, and the old man on the rocking chair continued to knit slowly, she said softly: "He is a person who can't speak, but his personality is very gentle, don't worry if he doesn't answer you, he also has his own." Inconvenient place”
"Oh, I don't mind."
Chatted with the old man again, the little girl finally finished her meal, and Xiaomei also finished dealing with the hinge problem.
Ronggui wanted to wash the dishes, but the old lady refused.
"There will be red shrimp and rice in the evening." Before Ronggui and the others went out, the old lady just said so reservedly. Then, without waiting for Ronggui and the others to react, she left with two empty bowls.
Is this the meaning of welcoming Hana to eat again?
Stunned, Ronggui and Hana looked at each other in dismay.
"It's getting late." In the end, it was Xiaomei who interrupted them.
Picking up Xiaomei's toolbox, Ronggui hurried out.
When I came to Hana's shop again, there were still many zombies around outside as before, Hana was protected between the two, and Ronggui squeezed nervously from the group of zombies to the front door. He bumped into something, looked up, but found that it was none other than the female zombie.
Hana's mother——
Look carefully, Hana's father - the zombie with glasses is standing nearby, if Xiaomei rushes over like Ronggui recklessly, she will probably bump into him just in time.
It was only then that Ronggui realized that this time is exactly the time when the zombies "enter the city", and similarly, it is also the time when Hana's parents "go home".
However, usually at this time, one of them should be in the studio and the other should be "working".
Ronggui looked at Hana, the little girl was obviously a bit confused.
There is confusion, sadness, and fear.
Even the parents who love the most, children of this age will still be afraid to see them rotting.
Hana's small body trembled again.
After a while, Ronggui heard Hana say:
"Dad, Mom, Agui and I went to his house to play, and we had dinner there last night"
"It's red shrimp rice."
"Dad said before that he would take me to eat, but I haven't found any place to sell red shrimp rice."
"The red shrimp rice is really delicious!"
Hana's voice was small and trembling slightly at first, however, as the content increased, the trembling in the little girl's voice gradually disappeared, like a naughty little girl who forgot to tell her parents where she was going. Like a child, she told all about what she did yesterday.
Perhaps she is used to talking to her parents this way. It didn't take long for her voice to lose all fear, and all that was left was the familiarity and casualness of talking to her parents. Afterwards, the little girl's tone Li was a little happier.
"Mrs. Zora said that there is red shrimp rice tonight, can I eat that again?"
Like any little kid who tells his parents where to hang out, Hana jerked her head up when she said something happy, and met her parents' livid and rotten faces.
Ronggui watched helplessly as the little girl's eyes trembled again, and sadness once again appeared in her eyes.
The two parents who had become zombies naturally couldn't speak. They didn't say a word. One went upstairs stiffly, and the other went to the next room.
It was only then that Ronggui realized: These two zombies were waiting for a child just now, right?
There was no sign of Hana anywhere in the room, and they couldn't help but come out. If they came back later, they would probably leave the house and look for Hana outside, right?
Dazed, Ronggui stood at the door for a long, long time.
Until Xiaomei pulled him up and walked towards the upstairs studio.
On this day, Xiaomei has been working with Hana's father who has turned into a zombie. One of the two "persons" is using it to continuously speculate on the ingredients of the powerful nutrient solution, while the other is constantly extracting something.
Seeing how brave Xiaomei is, Ronggui also went all out and cleaned up the housework with the female zombie.
Hana watched for a long time, and finally plucked up the courage to join Ronggui. The three of them—a real person, a robot, and a zombie started doing housework clumsily.
Living together during the day, at around three o'clock in the afternoon, when the zombies were about to go back, Ronggui drove the rhubarb to send them back.
After work was over at night, Ronggui packed the little girl back home.
Although the sheets are dry, Mrs. Zora has breakfast and dinner that look terrible but taste delicious
Two weeks passed in such a horrible, weird and unusual way. During these two weeks, little girl Hana was successfully fed by Mrs. Zora and gained two catties, and she also learned how to remove and wash the sheets correctly. Way to go, besides, she and Ronggui also learned how to tie pigtails!
She can do a lot of things for the female zombie!
You can even take the initiative to lean over and try to pick up the cooking pot when your mother is cooking!
Although the cooking was unpalatable, Hana finally managed to cook the first pot of rice in her life. The appearance is inherited from the mother, and it is ugly as always. The taste is a pity, and it is exactly the same as the one inherited from the mother.
But the little girl was very happy, if it wasn't for Ronggui and the others who couldn't taste it, she must have stuffed the spoon into Ronggui's mouth excitedly
She also raised the spoon to her parents, but
It was the stiff face after the death of the parents.
Under the watchful eyes of four people, Hana ate the rice she cooked for the first time, and then—
The next day, the female zombie, Hana's mother, did not come back.
After that day, she never came back.
