Jiang Wan was holding two nuclear crystals in her arms and was still thinking about what had just happened. After thinking for a long time, she couldn't figure out the specific reason why the person in charge was suddenly so enthusiastic about her, so she simply stopped thinking about it and walked home leisurely.

Along the way, you can also watch people catching rats. Some use pliers, some use rat traps to trap them, and some people dig a trap to drive the rats in. In short, they all come up with their own tricks, as long as they can catch the corpse eaters.

Rat's moves are all good moves.

There are piles of rats on the roadside, and you can catch them in a big cage in a while. It's okay to earn a few work points in a day.

"Sister Xiaowan? Sister Xiaowan!"

A boy's voice sounded. There was uncertainty in the voice at first. When he saw Jiang Wan turning around, he became excited instantly.

Jiang Wan followed the sound and looked over. There were two big boys standing in the crowd of twos and threes on the roadside. They were dirty and holding a small cage in their hands. There were several small mice in the small cage, and they were chirping.

Non-stop.

"Zi Pei, Wang Zi Hao?" If their voices weren't familiar, Jiang Wan almost wouldn't recognize them.

The faces of both of them were dark and dark. They hadn't washed their faces for who knows how long. They were covered with old dust. If they rubbed their faces casually, they would probably make mud balls.

Wang Zipei was better off, while Wang Zihao's clothes were in tatters and stained with blood. They had dried up and turned dark red, looking quite miserable.

"Sister Xiao Wan" Wang Zipei brought his younger brother to Jiang Wan, still a little shy.

"Why do you two look like this? Were Wang Zihao's wounds scratched by rats? Why don't you buy some medicine and bandage them? It's easy to get infected."

Even though Jiang Wan was very angry with Jiang Yan, seeing her two children living in such misery now, she still couldn't help but ask a few more questions.

Wang Zipei looked at the injuries on his brother's body and said, "They were caught by mice, but my grandfather said that the family didn't have much work and couldn't afford the medicine, so he never looked at it. My mother has been missing for a long time. She hasn't come back yet, and she doesn't know where to go."

No one cares about us when she's not here."

"Then why don't you go to my house to find your grandma? Aren't you worried about your brother's injury getting infected and inflamed?" Jiang Wan couldn't even figure out how their two heads were spinning.

Wang Zipei opened his mouth, hesitating to speak. He was speechless for a long time. Jiang Wan frowned slightly and said, "If you have anything to say, tell me, why do boys have mothers-in-law?"

"My grandpa didn't let us go." Wang Zihao continued, with grievance and anger in his voice. "Grandpa said he would wait for grandma to find us so that he could ask grandma for many things. He also said that grandma didn't know how to do it.

Regardless of the two of us, if he knew that we secretly went to see grandma, my grandpa would not feed us."

"You are his grandsons who carry on the family line. Didn't he treat you the most in the past? Why are you not being given medical treatment or food now? Are you doing this to you?" Jiang Wan was also speechless.

"Grandpa said, if you don't have a good meal now, who knows what day you will die. If you want to live a good life now, you have to wait for grandma to visit us so that we can negotiate terms and ask for things. Brother said that he is afraid of giving it to us when the time comes.

Grandma is causing trouble because she doesn't want her to know that we are not doing well." Wang Zihao curled his lips and saw tears about to fall.

Jiang Wan raised her eyes and looked at the pitiful looks of the two of them, "I still think about your grandma, so I have some conscience. Come with me."

Jiang Yan's debt belongs to Jiang Yan. She is dead, so it can be considered as repaid. Now there are two children left. Grandpa doesn't care about grandma. With life like this, Jiang Nai must feel sorry for her two grandchildren, so she might as well take them with her.

Go home, stay by your side and watch, the stone in Jiang Nai's heart has finally fallen.

After Jiang Nai heard the news of Jiang Yan's disappearance from the two children, she might be sad for a while.

"What about my grandpa?" Wang Zipei asked worriedly. He recently came to the exchange point to catch mice just to meet Jiang Wan's family.

The two of them knew that if they wanted to live well, they had to rely on their grandmother and uncle's family, and their grandparents could not count on them.

"If your grandpa dares to come and make trouble, I'll be here." Jiang Wan said.

"Okay." The two of them breathed a sigh of relief when Jiang Wan said this.

The two of them followed Jiang Wan back. Grandma heard the noise and came out to see the miserable state of the two of them. She felt very distressed and said, "How can your mother take care of you? Zihao is so injured that she doesn't take care of it."

"My mother has been missing for a long time, even before the rat plague." Wang Zipei said cautiously.

After Jiang Nai heard this, she fell silent for a moment. She was angry and hated her for being such a daughter, but she was also her daughter. The moment she heard that she was missing, she felt the blood in her heart go backwards, looking at the miserable state of the two children.

, in the end he didn’t say much.

"Come in, come in." Father Jiang pulled a few people in beside him.

He knew that Jiang Yan was dead, but if he just said he was dead, it would be better to let them all think that he was missing, at least they would not be so sad.

The two children followed Father Jiang, and Jiang Wan pulled Jiang Nai. When Father Jiang opened the door, the two children suddenly stopped outside the door and said cautiously, "We are too dirty."

The house was clean and tidy, even the floor had just been mopped and was still shining. The fireplace in the living room was glowing with orange flames, which looked very warm.

Looking at the dirty clothes on their bodies, the two children suddenly felt embarrassed to go in, for fear of soiling the clean room.

"Go in, go in, I'll find you two sets of home clothes first, take a bath, and take care of your injuries." Jiang Nai then came back to her senses, found two sets of clothes, and urged the two children to take a bath quickly.

After driving both of them into the bathroom, Jiang Nai sat on the sofa and muttered, "Where do you think Jiang Yan can go? I don't care about the two children."

Father Jiang looked at Jiang Wan and comforted Jiang Nai, "Who knows, he disappeared before the rat plague came. He must have gone somewhere because of something, and he might have been eaten by a rat. Maybe he will come back some time."

"Wait until she comes back and see how I deal with her." Jiang Nai could only talk hard, but in fact she felt extremely uncomfortable.

Seeing the two children coming out of the bathroom, Jiang Nai calmed down the expression on her face and got up to get medicine to treat the wounds of the two children.

After being left unattended for such a long time, some of the wounds had already developed pus and looked quite serious. Zhou Ji squatted aside and gave Jiang Nai a hand.

Jiang Wan watched quietly from the side, and after a long time she said, "Our room is full. I'm going to ask the village chief if there is any room available in the village for the two of them."

There was Jiang Yan's example first. Even though they were still children, Jiang Wan still didn't trust them. There were too many secrets in the family, and it was very troublesome for them to be on guard at home. Having Zhou Ji was already very troublesome, but

Stop staring at them with two more pairs of eyes every day.

After hearing this, Jiang’s parents and Jiang’s mother understood clearly. Only Jiang Nai said worriedly, “There are so many rats outside now, can the two children live alone?”

"Then let Zhou Ji go live with them. If anything happens, we can take care of them." Jiang Wan raised her eyes and looked at Zhou Ji, just in time to move them out.

Previously, she had to observe Zhou Ji's physical condition and live at home. Later, because he was the result of her human experiment and could be used in the future, she felt more at ease staying by her side, so she let him stay.

Now is the time to find an opportunity to let him go out and live alone. Otherwise, it would be quite troublesome to take something out of the space and have to hide and get it.

What's more, Zhou Ji is a shrewd person and has not exposed his secrets now. If he does, it will be difficult to explain in the future.

"Okay, I have no problem." Zhou Ji said. The relationship between him and Jiang Wan was not like what Jiang's father and Jiang's mother thought. It was really inappropriate for him to live here all the time.

Some of the village chiefs have not returned, and the houses are empty. During the big earthquake, the houses were given to the families that were destroyed by the earthquake. Now there are two extra sets, which are just small one-story bungalows.

There are only two bedrooms and one living room with a yard.

These were houses built by the government for poverty alleviation before the disaster struck, and were built for some poor people. They were not very big, but they were made of cement, and they were pretty good to live in.

It was next to the second uncle's house, which was not too far away. Jiang Nai was busy preparing daily necessities for them, including clothes, bedding, charcoal for the stove, etc. She also sent them a lot of rice and noodles to eat, and arranged everything in life.

You can rest assured if it is done properly.

Jiang Wan did not tolerate them and said to the two children, "When you have nothing to do, follow the people in the village to catch mice. For such a grown-up person, the only thing you can do is support yourself."

Jiang Wan was afraid that if these two were too lazy to cook, they would become two more burdens in vain.

Wang Zipei nodded obediently, "I know."

Now he is very content to have a warm bed and food to fill his stomach. I don't know how many times better than at his grandparents' place.

"I will go with them in the future." Zhou Ji followed Wang Zipei's example and stood next to Jiang Wan obediently, looking at her with watery eyes.

Jiang Wan saw him like this and smiled and said, "You don't have to go. Stay at home. I need to be able to find you at any time. When you have nothing to do, go to the warehouse to help. I will pay you every month. I will make sure you are not hungry."

.”

Jiang Wan couldn't bear to let Zhou Ji go out for a run. If something went missing, her experimental results would also be lost, and she would have to find someone to do it again.

There are uncertainties in every experiment. If we do the same human experiment again, we still don’t know what’s going on. What if it fails and the person dies.

"Okay." Zhou Ji couldn't be happier.

Speaking of which, he is only two years older than Wang Zipei. He is still just a big boy, but he has experienced much more than Wang Zipei and the other two.

Wang Zipei and Wang Zihao had not lived a very good life before, and they had relatives to take care of them. However, Zhou Ji was struggling alone. After meeting Jiang Wan, life became better. He also used human experiments and walked on the line of life and death in exchange for it.
