I became a farmer in the apocalypse.

The next morning, Ye Hongjun delivered the wooden bed that had been made.

Simple yet solid.

"We don't have to sleep on the floor anymore!" Jiang Yanxing hurriedly carried the wooden bed into the room with Ye Hongjun and placed it against the middle wall.

Ye Hongjun also brought two exquisite locked boxes.

Putting a lock on the box was Ye Hongjun's own idea, which Jiang Li thought was a good idea.

In this way, it can be used not only to store some daily necessities, but also to store slightly more valuable items.

"Uncle Ye, I'm going to visit my sister in the safe zone today, so I'm bringing some pork with me."

Ye Hongjun was somewhat surprised to hear this. "You have an older sister? Why didn't she come out with you?"

Jiang Li: "She's already married."

Ye Hongjun led Jiang Li home, opened the refrigerator, and Jiang Li took out two pig trotters, plus about ten pounds of pork belly and tenderloin.

When Li Lan heard about the situation, she specially brought plastic bags to help Jiang Li repackage the items, saying, "Pack them up carefully so they don't get damaged on the way."

"Aunt Li, Jiang Yan and I are going out later. I'm worried that the piglets and chickens might get stolen. I'd appreciate it if you could take care of them then."

"Okay!" Li Lan readily agreed. "I'll bring the piglets over after you leave, and I'll look after them myself!"

Around 7 o'clock, Jiang Li and Jiang Yan boarded a bus together to the safe zone.

There weren't many people on the bus, only about ten, all of them going to the safe zone to visit relatives or run errands.

After the car entered the high wall checkpoint of the safe zone, and drove a while further in, Jiang Li and Jiang Yan got out of the car carrying woven bags and followed them to the place where Chen Jiqi and Jiang Tang lived after their marriage.

After knocking, the person who opened the door was neither Chen Jiqi nor Jiang Tang, but a radiant woman.

When Chen's mother's gaze fell on Jiang Li and Jiang Yan, a hint of disdain flashed across her face. "What are you two burdens doing here again? Haven't you taken enough from the Chen family over the years?"

Jiang Li: "I came to see my sister, is she here?"

"Not here!"

As Chen's mother spoke, she was about to close the door.

The last time Jiang Li came to see Jiang Tang, it was the same. Chen's mother simply said "Not here" and closed the door, as if saying another word to Jiang Li was a waste of time.

Jiang Li stepped halfway inside and squeezed into the doorway.

The sudden action startled Chen's mother. A look of surprise flashed across her face, and she glared at Jiang Li with displeasure. "What are you doing? Who let you in?"

"Look at what you're wearing! Don't get my floor dirty!"

Ignoring all of that, Jiang Li stared into Chen's mother's eyes and whispered:

"When I came here a few days ago, you told me my sister wasn't here, and when I came today, you still said she wasn't here..."

Chen's mother didn't look Jiang Li in the eye and said impatiently:

"She's a living, breathing person with legs, not a dead one. How would I know where she went?"

Jiang Li glanced around the room.

Jiang Tang might not actually be here, otherwise she would have come out long ago upon hearing the sound.

Jiang Li took out the prepared pork from her bag. "I thought Jiang Tang was here, so I brought her the pork. Since she's not here, then—"

"etc--!"

Chen's mother stared at the pork in Jiang Li's hand, her eyes wide with surprise.

"Where did you get all this pork?"

What's the situation with Jiang Tang's sister and brother? How could the Chen family not know?

If it weren't for Jiang Tang occasionally taking food from the Chen family to help them, Jiang Li and Jiang Yan would have starved to death long ago!

"Jiang Yan and I saved up some points to buy it," Jiang Li said.

"Not bad, at least they know how to be grateful." Chen's mother's expression softened.

She took the pork from Jiang Li, muttering to herself, "As the saying goes, 'Don't forget the well-digger when you drink the water.' If it weren't for our Chen family, would you and your brother be alive today? And your job at the weaving factory, we spent a lot of points to get that for you..."

Jiang Li: "Can you tell me now where my sister is?"

Chen's mother rolled her eyes. "Jiang Tang is in the hospital. Perfect timing, why don't you go see her? You two sisters haven't seen each other in a long time."

"My older sister is in the hospital?" Jiang Yan's expression changed drastically. "What happened to her? Why is she in the hospital?"

Chen's mother rolled her eyes. "What else could it be? She accidentally hurt her head! What a waste of her money."

"Which hospital?" Jiang Li asked.

Chunfeng Hospital.

Jiang Li didn't say anything more and turned to leave.

Not long after Jiang Li and Jiang Yan left, Chen Jiqi returned and was surprised to see the pork on the table.

"Where did all this pork come from?"

Pork is currently worth over 300 points per pound. This big bag of pork must weigh over ten pounds, right?

"Brought by Jiang Tang's sister."

Chen's mother rolled her eyes. "That burden has really made something of herself! She actually has the money to bring so much pork to her sister. I don't know where she got the money."

Chen Jiqi was quite surprised to hear this.

Jiang Li?

Is Jiang Li someone who can afford to buy so much pork at once?

Chen Jiqi then asked, "Does Jiang Li know that Jiang Tang is hospitalized?"

"I told her."

Chen's mother pursed her lips. "Perfect. Let the Jiang family clean up their own mess. Anyway, I don't want to pay for Jiang Tang's hospital bills!"

After saying that, she glared at Chen Jiqi again, "You'd better break up with that woman right now! Otherwise, Jiang Tang will see this and cause a huge uproar! You're a married man, and if your clinic's management finds out, it won't be good for your job!"

Upon hearing this, Chen Jiqi clenched his fist and responded softly, "Okay."

-

Jiang Li and Jiang Yan arrived at Chunfeng Hospital, and Jiang Yan was very uneasy along the way.

Why did my older sister fall like that? Did she hit her head?

"We're looking for Jiang Tang. Which ward is she in?"

Upon hearing this, the nurse glanced at Jiang Li and Jiang Yan, "Are you Jiang Tang's family members?"

"That's right! We are her younger brother and sister."

"That's perfect, let's pay the outstanding fees before we go see the person," the nurse said.

"How many points?"

The nurse glanced at the bill. "4700."

"4700?"

Jiang Yan's eyes widened instantly!

"So expensive? What happened to my older sister? Did she have surgery?"

The nurse asked in confusion, "Aren't you her family members? Don't you know what's wrong with her?"

Seeing that the two remained silent and genuinely didn't know, the nurse said helplessly:

"He hit his head, suffered minor skull damage, and was in a coma for several days before waking up this morning."

"What exactly was the delivery time?" Jiang Li asked.

"About four days ago."

No wonder.

That was the day Jiang Li left the safe zone.
