The Ordinary Man's Guide to Fast Travel

Chapter 201 Exile 28

Everyone in the yard was still asleep, and Chao Yao returned to his room quietly.

Yang Tiaotiao was still sleeping soundly. Chao Yao lay down beside her, then lifted the ban on everyone and fell asleep too.

When the sky was bright, people in the house had already gotten up one after another.

Chaoqi's family was still asleep. When Chaotian woke up, he was shocked to find that his wife was not around.

"Tiao Tiao, Tiao Tiao! Where have you been?"

Chao Tiancai was running around every room, extremely anxious. Yang Tiaotiao heard the noise and came out.

"Husband, I'm here. There was thunder last night, and I was afraid Yaoyao would be scared, so I came here to sleep with her."

Chao Tiancai finally breathed a sigh of relief when he saw Yang Tiaotiao standing there unharmed.

The journey of exile made him always alert, and even now, he has never let down his guard.

No one can be left behind, whether adults or children!

"Tiaotiao, Yaoyao has grown up. She is not afraid of thunder anymore. Nephew Lu came to our house before. There will be thunder in the next few months. With more experience, she will get used to it."

Chao Yao walked out and quickly replied, "Yes, yes, yes, mother, I'm not afraid anymore. I've been prepared before, so I'm not that scared now. You should stay by father's side and accompany him. Maybe father is more scared than me."

Chao Tiancai immediately understood his daughter's intention. He quickly took Yang Tiaotiao's hand and said tearfully, "Tiaotiao, if you don't sleep next to me, I will be really scared! You have to accompany me every night from now on, otherwise how can I sleep?"

Yang Tiaotiao was a little bit unconvinced, "How can a grown man like you be afraid of thunder? You weren't afraid of it before!"

"I am afraid now. The past was the past, and the present is the present. The thunder in the past is different from the thunder now."

Even if Yang Tiaotiao didn't believe it, Chao Tiancai dragged her with tears and snot, which made her soften her heart in the end.

"Dad, Mom, you guys go sit over there for a while, or you can clean up the house. I'll make breakfast. What do you want to eat this morning? Oh, by the way, why hasn't my little brother woken up yet?"

Yang Tiaotiao glanced at Chao Yuebai's room and said, "Who knows? Just let him sleep. There is nothing to do during the day anyway. Apart from learning to read and write, there seems to be nothing else he can do."

"Yaoyao, the pulled noodles you made last time were delicious. Do you want to have that again this morning?"

"Okay, go ahead and do your work, I'll do it for you right away."

Chaoyao likes to cook, mainly because cooking in a place with a kang will create a lot of dust. She always feels that others cannot clean it clean, and only by using her own dust removal skills can she keep every place spotless.

Everything that enters must be clean, and she is very strict about this aspect of the living environment.

It's not that I'm a germaphobe, I'm just used to a clean environment. Wherever I go, I have to use the dust removal technique dozens of times.

The whole family loved the pulled noodles she made last time, so this time she decided to add some egg sauce and beef rolls.

Vegetables are also essential. Fortunately, there are plenty of them in the space, and they also grow some in the room, so it won’t arouse suspicion if they are taken out and eaten.

Chao Yuebai woke up just as Chao Yao finished cooking.

Because he was hibernating, Chao Tiancai didn't have too many expectations on his studies and he could just wake up later.

After he finished washing up, his eyes lit up when he saw the pulled noodles on the table.

"Sister, did you make this pulled noodles? I know it, I can tell at a glance that it was you. You are the best cook in the family. If I could eat your cooking every day, I would definitely be the happiest child in our country."

Chao Yuebai still flatters me as much as ever, and Chao Yao never gets tired of listening to him flattering her in different ways every day.

"If you know it tastes good, eat more. Grow taller and stronger sooner, and then protect your parents."

"Sister, don't worry, I will eat a lot. I am a man and I will be able to protect you!"

After saying this to Yue Bai, he took a big bite of noodles with a look of satisfaction on his face.

The family's life continued in this dull manner. Every night when the thunder exploded, Chaoyao would continue to temper his body and soul.

She didn’t know why there was spiritual energy in this place in this life. She tried to go to farther places, but found that there was no such turbulent spiritual energy in those places.

I don’t know the reason, just treat it as my opportunity.

In this way, by April of the following spring, the snow had basically melted and the land was suitable for planting various crops. Chao Tiancai and Yang Tiaotiao began to learn how to farm.

Chao Qi's family decided to build a large courtyard near Chao Yao's home so that the two families could take care of each other in the future.

As for the land, no one is in charge now. You can enclose as much land and plant as much as you can, and it all belongs to you.

Chao Yao looked around and found that there were only ten people left from last year.

She was quite surprised that so many people survived.

Being able to survive in the ice and snow for several months is not something that ordinary people can do.

The woman who came to the house and knocked on the door was no longer there, and Chao Yao had no intention of looking for her.

When these people saw Chao Qi's family coming out of Chao Yao's yard, they all looked at them fiercely, with condemnation, resentment, and resentment...

All kinds of complicated emotions were shown on their faces, but both Chao Yao and Chao Qi's family didn't care about them at all.

If a group of people like this don't provoke me, then I'll just live in peace. If they take the initiative to provoke me, then I'll just kill them off.

As for their constant talk of win-win cooperation, or that only by working together can they survive, neither of the two families believed it.

When it comes to matters of life and death, human nature is the last thing that can be trusted.

After the beginning of spring, some people sent money to Chao Qi's family. Even Chao Tiancai had to sigh that this was a great opportunity.

With money, building a house will naturally be fast.

Considering that the family would live here for another ten years, the house they built was not only large but also comfortable.

In order to keep warm, they also built a kang and a fire wall like Chao Yao's family did.

In the spring, they not only had to farm, but also repair the city walls and take on some other responsibilities.

For example, guarding the border.

Chao Yao and Chao Yuebai are relatively young, so they did not go to patrol the border. But people like Chao Tiancai and Yang Tiaotiao have to repair the city walls, and Chao Tiancai sometimes even has to take turns to guard the border.

Of course, they are not the only ones doing these things. All those who have been exiled over the years have to do these things.
