186 Maliciously Judged

The first step of planting peanuts was to soak the seeds in water for an entire night so that the seeds could fully absorb the water. The second step was to dig small holes in the soil, put the peanut seeds in them, cover them with soil, and water them. The growth cycle of peanuts was relatively long, and sufficient light had to be guaranteed every day. This would not have been difficult before the apocalypse, but in this situation, it could be considered a very difficult crop to plant.

However, what Du Yue had the most right now was time, so she did not really care about the electricity bill. Since she had already planted them, she would take good care of them. Although Du Yue did not lack these peanuts, it was just that the fog outside was so thick that she was bored at home alone. She had to find something to do.

The days passed by so peacefully and comfortably that Du Yue was in a trance. It was as if everything she had experienced in the thick fog in her previous life was a nightmare, and this life was the normal one. Everything was developing in a good direction, and people’s lives were gradually getting on the right track. Even her neighbors were in the mood to visit her.

Du Yue had just finished pollinating the peanuts when she heard someone knocking on the gate. As it was a big metal gate, whenever someone knocked on it, the sound would be particularly loud. Although it was a little noisy, from another point of view, it had a certain warning effect. Otherwise, if they changed to a door that would not make any sounds, it would be scary if someone broke in without them realizing it.

Du Yue washed her hands and walked toward the main entrance. Standing at the gate, Du Yue did not even open the small window. She only asked, “Who is it?”

“I’m your neighbor on the right. I made some potato egg patties and want to give some to you.”

“I’m your neighbor on your left. I roasted some sweet potatoes, so I’m here to bring some over.”

Hearing this, Du Yue subconsciously frowned. “Thank you for your kind intentions, but there’s no need.”

“You don’t have to be so careful, little girl. Don’t worry, we’re not bad people. Don’t you remember? We met before when we were fetching water. We’re all neighbors, and besides your household, the rest of us often visit each other, so I think we should keep in touch more. After all, distant relatives are not as good as close neighbors. We can help each other if there’s anything in the future.”

What Du Yue was most afraid of was this sort of kind act where strangers suddenly came up to her and tried to get close to her. In the current apocalypse, everyone was already busy taking care of themselves. When an accident happened, it would be good enough if everyone could take care of themselves and their families. Why did they need to be so loving? It was a waste of time and energy, and it might even affect her mood. “It’s really fine. Thank you, but please go back.”

One of the people at the door did not expect Du Yue to be so stubborn. Her tone was clearly a little unhappy. “Little girl, why are you so stubborn? Fine, we’ll take it as a wasted trip. Since you don’t want to keep in contact with us, we won’t bother you anymore.”

“Oh, Aunt Guo, why don’t you lower yourself to the level of a little girl? She has a man supporting her, so naturally, she won’t be interested in our measly offerings…”

“What does that say about her if she has to rely on a man to support her? Since ancient times, women could hold up half the sky. If she stays at home all day and does nothing, men will get tired of her one day no matter how beautiful she is!

“Young people these days have weird personalities. She doesn’t know what unity and friendship are at all. If she really gets into trouble one day, it’ll be too late for her to regret it when no one helps her.”

“Why are you worrying about her? She’s just relying on her young and beautiful appearance to control a man, or at least that’s what she thinks. As for what will happen in the future, we don’t know!”

“So what if she’s young and beautiful? Who wasn’t young and beautiful when they were young? What kind of attitude is this?”

“Aunt Guo, you’re right. I’ve long heard that there are some young ladies nowadays who go around seducing others just because they’re pretty. They can live very comfortably just by coaxing people with their mouths. They don’t put in any money or effort. At most, they just doll themselves up a little, but they get to live an easy life…”

“Easy? Hehe, we have hands and feet. We can’t do such a cheap business. Let’s go, let’s go. In the future, the further away we are from this kind of people who don’t know what’s good for them, the better.”

Du Yue stood at the door and listened as the two of them walked farther and farther away while muttering. She sneered and turned to walk back into the house.
