"Sister Liu, this is my eldest brother, my biological brother, Cui Boxiao, a top student from country M, and also a famous climbing team member."
"Brother, this is Sister Liu, the wife of Wang Tieshan from our village. The village chief said that according to seniority, we should call her aunt, but she is too young, so I can't call her that."
Cui Boyao took advantage of Cui Bohao's introduction to enter the room, sat down on the sofa carelessly, and looked around with sharp eyes.
The house was very clean and warm with the fireplace burning. In such extreme weather, it was rare that the temperature in the house could be kept above 10 degrees.
The end of the world has been here for more than half a year, and this girl can still live in such a place and enjoy it so much. No wonder she is coveted by others.
There must be something different about her that makes her different from ordinary people. He will slowly discover it after he settles down.
Little did he know that while Cui Boxiao was observing Liu Qiaoer, Liu Qiaoer was also observing Cui Boxiao.
This person looks somewhat familiar. To say he looks like Tuoba Xiao is only 30% similar, but the remaining 60% is more like someone else.
But Liu Qiaoer couldn't remember the man's name, she just felt that he was familiar to her.
"Let me take a look at your belly?" Liu Qiaoer asked Cui Bohao to lie flat on the bed, and she pressed it gently a few times with her hands.
There was no bleeding or rupture of the internal organs. Although the violent man looked tall and strong, he had not eaten well for half a year and did not have much strength.
Cui Bohao was not injured either, he just needed to rest for a while.
Liu Qiaoer brought a pair of cotton slippers to Cui Boyao: "Change your shoes. I'm a bit of a germaphobe. There are traps in the house. Don't run around. You can't live in the house for nothing. Remember to clean up the first floor, bedroom, living room, bathroom, kitchen every day. These are all your jobs."
"There's a TV downstairs with signal. If there's nothing else, I'll go back to my room and rest. If there's anything, just call me."
Liu Qiaoer just gave a few simple instructions and went upstairs.
When Cui Bohao saw her leave, he became more lively.
"Brother, let me tell you, this Sister Liu is amazing. She is a scientist who studies time travel. She anticipated these disasters and prepared this yard in advance."
"In addition to the basement downstairs, there is also a third floor with supplies. There are vegetables planted on the second-floor balcony and in the yard, but because the temperature is too low, the vegetables are frozen."
"Brother, however, don't run around in her house. There are hidden weapons and traps inside. They are all poisonous and very powerful."
Cui Bohao took his clothes and handed them to his brother: "Go take a bath. There is hot water at her house, which is very comfortable. There is meat to eat at noon. I don't know what to eat today."
Cui Boxiao blinked: "Can I choose what to eat?"
Cui Bohao smiled and said, "I can't be picky, but she can. She can cook whatever she wants. She has a lot of supplies. I'm just staying here, so of course I'll eat whatever she cooks. She's a great cook, and everything she cooks tastes delicious."
Cui Boyao took a shower downstairs, changed his clothes, put his clothes in the washing machine, and cleaned the first floor.
Liu Qiaoer was also tidying up the house on the second floor. She exercised for a while and washed clothes. When she was almost done, she rested for half an hour. At eleven thirty, she walked downstairs.
"Your eldest brother is here today, so let's have something delicious. Let's add some vegetables, steam some spareribs, make some braised pork, stir-fry some vegetables, scrambled eggs, and make some seaweed soup. They are all home-cooked dishes. Do you have any dietary restrictions?"
Cui Bohao lives here and has eaten so many meals without any dietary restrictions, especially Cui Boxiao. He shook his head and said, "I don't have any dietary restrictions. Everything is fine. I haven't eaten Chinese food for a long time. Thanks to you."
Liu Qiaoer brought the ingredients to the first floor. Seeing that the room was very clean, she was very satisfied and went straight into the kitchen.
Cui Boxiao followed in: "Do you need help?"
Liu Qiaoer just said no, but then she changed her mind and thought that if he could cook, she wouldn't have to work so hard if he did it in the future.
"Okay, thank you. Not many men cook."
Liu Qiaoer took down the whole ribs. Cui Boyao washed the ribs without saying a word and started chopping them with the same knife. Their techniques were quite different.
"When I was studying abroad, I couldn't get used to their food, so I cooked it myself. My cooking skills are pretty good. If you trust me, I'll be the chef today."
Liu Qiaoer raised her eyebrows and quickly gave way: "It is better to obey than to be respectful."
She found an apron, put it on him, and helped Cui Boyao cook.
The cooking skills are indeed very skillful, and the spare ribs are delicious and fragrant.
"Yes, you still have seasonings at this time. No wonder those people want to break in to find out what's going on. I really can't imagine how you can guard this yard by yourself if we are not here."
Cui Boxiao was cooking while talking to Liu Qiaoer, trying to find out her background in his words.
Liu Qiao'er didn't care and smiled confidently: "Since we have been prepared for a long time, we have naturally taken precautions. In addition to one or two cold weapons, there are also wooden warehouses. Let alone them, even if everyone in the village wants to break in, they have to consider whether they are afraid of death."
Cui Boxiao smiled and said, "You are a scientist? Did you know that this disaster would happen?"
Liu Qiaoer nodded: "It can be calculated that our planet will not only face disasters, but also be attacked by aliens. The leaders have probably already started planning to build an underground city."
Cui Boxiao frowned: "But I heard that the weather will gradually warm up in two years. After warming up, we still need to build an underground city. Is it because of the alien attack?"
Liu Qiaoer pondered for a moment: "Then do you know why this disaster happened?"
Cui Boyao shook his head. "I don't know. I was rock climbing in the wild at the time. When I heard the news of the earthquake, I returned to the city. I didn't expect the earthquake in the city to be so severe. I saw on TV that this disaster was global in nature, so I decided to return home to reunite with my family first."
"It was a rough journey. The planes didn't fly anymore, so I mostly came back by boat, car, and on foot."
It rained and froze for half a year, which was really hard. I didn't expect that there would be earthquakes and tsunamis on the other side of the planet.
The situation in the country was not optimistic either. The coastal areas were all destroyed by the tsunami. Only the plains and mountains did not suffer much damage. However, because transportation was destroyed, supplies gradually became scarce.
"This situation will last for another two years. Even if the weather warms up, the aliens will not give up if they know about this place. I'm afraid they will come back in a few years, unless..."
Liu Qiaoer stopped talking halfway.
Cui Boxiao seemed to have guessed it: "Since all this was caused by the invasion of aliens, unless we had not encountered aliens in the first place..."
Yes, Liu Qiaoer thought of Du Zixu. Because of the butterfly effect, he needed to constantly change the course of history. If this experiment was successful, they could also change the signal that was sent out that year.
If the aliens didn't have that signal, they wouldn't find the Blue Planet, let alone launch an invasion of the Blue Planet. The people on the planet would still be able to survive well until our technology breaks through, allowing us to leave the planet at will and have ways to deal with the aliens and protect the planet.
