Capítulo 10: The Milk Is Delicious
Editor: Henyee Translations
The little girl's bones were soft, as if they would break if she exerted a little force.
Gu Yundong did not dare to use too much strength. She hugged her exceptionally carefully.
"Little Sister, Little Sister? Wake up." She carried her a little further away from the fireplace before gently shaking her to wake her up.
The little girl opened her eyes and looked at her in confusion. "Big Sister?"
"Come, open your mouth and drink this."
"Oh." Gu Yunke did not even ask anything. She did not even see what was handed to her. She trusted her and obediently opened her small mouth and drank it.
After taking a few sips, she suddenly froze. "It's sweet?"
"Drink more if you like."
Gu Yundong was holding milk from her spatial storage. She had placed it on the fire to warm it up before feeding it to Gu Yunke.
The little girl was too thin and weak. She was clearly three years old, but currently, she could not even walk steadily. Most of her day was spent sleeping.
Gu Yunke was different from Gu Yunshu. No matter what, the latter was a boy and still held a slight position in Old Gu's heart. He naturally ate more than Gu Yun, so he was considered to have the best physical fitness among the four of them.
Gu Yundong had no experience in taking care of young children, but there was milk in the spatial storage. This was the most suitable thing to nourish her at the moment.
After drinking more than half a bowl of milk, Gu Yun could not help but burp.
"It's delicious."
Gu Yundong put down the bowl. When she saw her narrowing her eyes and looking like she was enjoying herself, she could not help but soften. Her tone became much gentler. "Go back to sleep."
Gu Yundong placed the little fellow in the middle and tucked her in. Then, she sat back by the fire.
The little girl was not fully awake to begin with. In just a moment, she fell asleep again.
The entire house was silent. Gu Yundong could not help but look up at the wooden beam above her head. She suddenly enjoyed this environment.
It was really quiet. She no longer heard the zombies' cries, nor did she need to be tense at all times and need to fight for her life. She even had family by her side. This was something she did not even dare to think about in her previous life.
It felt… like a dream.
"Dongdong…" Madam Yang suddenly woke up.
"You're awake?" Gu Yundong suddenly came back to her senses and realized that a long time had passed.
"Yes, I have to get up early."
It was only 4 am. The sky was not even bright yet.
However, Madam Yang had already developed a biological clock. When she was at home, she had to get up this early to cook food, feed the pigs, and to clean the courtyard. Later on, on the way to escape, because her brain was not very good, no one arranged for her to keep watch at night. Although she had to travel overnight sometimes, Madam Yang's waking time did not change much.
Gu Yundong stood up and stretched her limbs. She took a bag from the side and handed it to her. "This is for you."
Madam Yang looked down at the bag and her eyes lit up. "Pancakes and steamed buns?"
"Shh." Gu Yundong looked at the two children who were still sleeping.
Madam Yang immediately covered her mouth and shook her head vigorously. She actually looked a little cute.
The corners of Gu Yundong's mouth twitched. "Eat something to fill your stomach first. Put the rest over the fire and roast it. When they wake up, give it to them. I'm going to sleep for a while. If there's any sound outside or if someone comes, remember to wake me up, understand?"
Madam Yang was already awake, so she could let her be the guard. She had to take the opportunity to sleep for a few hours, or her body would not be able to take it.
"I do."
Madam Yang agreed seriously. Only then did Gu Yundong lie down and sleep.
After an unknown period of time, she woke up from the heat. Just as she narrowed her eyes, she heard Gu Yunke's tender voice.
"…It's true. I drank it last night. It was sweet and delicious."
