LIGHTNOVELONLINE Chapter 81 We Are Partners
Without Nan Ci saying hello, the four cats ran over spontaneously, each found a comfortable place to lie down, and fell asleep with Nan Ci.
The temperature in the room was suitable, and Nan Ci felt quite comfortable after a good night's sleep.
Just because she fell asleep a little late, when she woke up, it was already almost noon.
Nan Ci lay on the bed and looked at the time, not wanting to get up at all.
Who wants to go out and suffer the cold when you can lie in a warm bed?
However, Nan Ci wanted to lie down all the time, but the four cats didn't allow him.
The four cats must have been awake for a long time. They are no longer on the bed, but lying next to the fireplace.
Probably hearing the noise caused by Nan Ci, they all turned their heads and looked over.
Seeing that Nan Ci wanted to lie back down and continue sleeping, they all ran over and meowed at Nan Ci.
After calling a few times, you have to turn your head and look in the direction of the fireplace.
Nan Ci had raised several cats since childhood and knew them very well. Just by looking at their actions, Nan Ci understood what they meant.
It was because she thought the fireplace was not hot enough and asked her to get up and add firewood to the fireplace!
The fireplace has been burning for ten hours since she went to bed last night, so it's normal for there to be no more firewood.
Unable to lie down, Nan Ci stretched out his hands from the bed and rubbed the cats' heads and bodies a few times. Then he gritted his teeth and sat up, quickly getting dressed.
The clothes are placed in the middle layer of the quilt, and there is a heater blowing on them all the time. After a night, they are still warm and soft, and they are very comfortable to wear.
Nan Ci put on his clothes and shoes as quickly as possible, put on a furry hat at all times, and then walked quickly towards the fireplace.
He opened the fireplace, picked up the firewood on the side and added it. After only ten seconds, the flames started to burn quickly.
Looking at the dancing flames, Nan Ci sat down on the imperial concubine's couch nearby.
As long as the fire becomes strong, it will become very warm beside the fireplace.
Because the four cats always like to nest here, Nan Ci also spread a fluffy carpet next to the imperial concubine's couch.
There is obviously a royal couch, but some kittens just like to lie on the ground. There is a carpet to separate them, so they will not lie down directly on the cold floor.
Nan Ci leaned on the imperial concubine's couch, feeling drowsy due to the heat radiating from the fireplace.
It wasn't until his hungry stomach growled in protest that Nan Ci opened his eyes and went to pour hot water to wash up. He also added carbon to the big pot and water to the big pot.
When it rained heavily before, there was stagnant water everywhere outside. However, the stagnant water was turbid and dirty, and people could only collect rainwater for use.
Now that it has stopped raining and started to snow, water is more convenient than before.
When you need water, take a bucket with a bucket of compacted snow and bring it back and put it on the fire.
It won't be long before you have a pot of water.
People are not short of water, but they are short of tools and fuel to boil water.
Even if Nanci does not lack water, tools and fuel to boil water, Nanci, who lived an extremely difficult life in his previous life, still saves subconsciously and does not waste excessively.
After washing up, Nan Ci had breakfast with the four cats.
Don't eat breakfast too slowly, otherwise it will get cold while eating.
After eating breakfast, Nan Ci looked at the time and found that it was already past 12 o'clock.
Then we can’t make breakfast, this is totally lunch!
Others were short of food and drink, so they combined two meals into one. Nan Ci didn't lack anything and also saved one meal. This feeling was somewhat subtle.
Just as he put away the dishes and sat down, the intercom on the table made a rustling sound.
Immediately afterwards, Mu Qianqian's voice came from inside.
"Nan Ci, we are going to go out to find wood. Do you want to come with us?"
Upon hearing this inquiry, Nan Ci refused without any hesitation.
"I'm not going, you go ahead and be careful on the road."
Mu Qianqian on the other side of the intercom was not surprised at all by Nan Ci's answer.
There is a lot of coal and wood in Nanci, and so much was brought back yesterday. She can use it alone for a long time, and she does not have to go out to look for fuel every day.
"Then let's go first, and I want you to help keep an eye on our house."
Nan Ci understood why Mu Qianqian said this and immediately agreed.
"Don't worry, just leave it to me at home."
"Then I'll trouble you!" Mu Qianqian said in a brisk voice, "If I find anything good, I'll bring it back to you."
Nan Ci originally didn't want to ask Mu Qianqian to help bring anything, after all, she didn't lack anything.
But after hearing Mu Qianqian's words, his heart moved.
The space can obviously continue to become larger, but what is missing now is the condition to make the space larger - jade.
"If you come across small items such as jade while looking for supplies, please help bring them back. I will exchange them with you in food or other materials."
Mu Qianqian's somewhat surprised voice came from the intercom, "I didn't expect you to like jade? Do you like jade jewelry? It looks good, but it should be quite cold to wear it in this situation."
Mu Qianqian spoke very quickly, and she said a lot in no time.
Before Nan Ci could answer, Mu Qianqian continued, "Don't worry, as long as I encounter it, I will definitely bring it back for you."
Nan Ci smiled and said, "Thank you in advance."
"Thank you for what? We are partners. Isn't this just a matter of convenience? Okay, I won't tell you any more. Let's set off now."
As the words fell, there was no more movement on the intercom.
Nan Ci also slowly put down the walkie-talkie, but he couldn't help but recall Mu Qianqian's words just now in his mind.
- We are partners.
partner?
In the last life, Nan Ci struggled alone in the apocalypse for more than half a year. He had always been alone, with no friends, no family, and no partners.
In this life, not only do I have four cats to accompany me, but do I also have a partner?
Although this was completely outside of Nan Ci's plan, if he thought about it carefully, Nan Ci found that he didn't hate this feeling.
Since I don’t hate it, it’s good to just let nature take its course!
After thinking about it, Nan Ci stopped worrying too much and leaned on the imperial concubine's couch, covering her with a blanket.
After the arrival of the extreme cold, the surveillance outside has become ineffective. Nan Ci simply took out a book from the space and read it, and at the same time he kept his ears open to listen to what was going on outside.
For the past two or three hours, it was quiet outside, not even the sound of footsteps.
Just when Nan Ci thought that no one would come to cause trouble and that the afternoon would pass peacefully, he suddenly heard footsteps outside.
The footsteps were not hasty, on the contrary, they were very cautious, as if they were afraid of being discovered.
