Chapter 101
The next morning, Xiao Liang came.
Xiao Liang is the person in charge of the working group. It stands to reason that Old Man Gu and Gu Kai are also his staff.
Of course, he certainly did not dare to pretend to be a leader.
Gu Kai and his son were brought back by him from Qingshan Town, but he was not qualified to follow him into Beijing.
When they came back yesterday, Xiao Liang was still at the base.
He didn't know that the father and son were back until he returned to the regiment at night, so he came here early this morning.
He didn't come empty-handed, and when he entered the house, he was carrying a large military backpack. When opened, there are various things inside.   "This is the medicine I took to the hospital in the morning to help Brother Gu. Liu Tuan said that Sister Shen would take care of the wound and asked me to take the medicine back so that you wouldn't have to run back
and forth."
The wound medicine was handed over.
Shen Cong thanked him and took it.
"This is a subsidy from the regiment for Uncle Gu and Brother Gu. Liu Tuan said, if it's less, you can use it first, and then find a way to get some more after a while."
Xiao Liang said, and began to go out from the bag again . take things.
This time it was more complicated.
There was a small bag of vermicelli wrapped individually, two small pieces of Jinhua ham vacuumed, two boxes of canned luncheon meat, and a pack of military custard biscuits.
In addition, there is a tin lunch box with ten eggs carefully wrapped with a soft cloth.
"These things are too valuable, we can't have them!" Old Man Gu was the first to speak.
He frowned at Xiaoliang: "This is what Liu Tuan collected from you, right? Did you empty your family?
Xiaoliang, take it back to me! Tell Liu Tuan, if he does this again, I will Angry. He's treating us like outsiders!"
"No, no, Uncle Gu, don't be angry, Liu Tuan didn't mean that." Xiao
Liang said, looking at the haggard-faced old man leaning on the bed, and a trace of sadness flashed in his eyes.
He said: "Uncle Gu, don't think so much, what about you and us, we are not all family?
In public affairs, we are all in the same unit and in a working group. You are older and are our predecessors;
in private affairs, My friendship with Wei Yan, you and Brother Gu are the same as my uncle, my brother. Uncle Gu
, don't treat me as an outsider. We did get the food together, but isn't that what it should be? ?
You and my brother can take care of their bodies and recover as soon as possible, so that we can feel at ease.
Seeing you like this makes me feel really uncomfortable... Liu Tuan is no better than me.
He went to the market early this morning . I'm in the hospital, and said I'm going to help you find some good medicine."
Hearing Xiaoliang say this, several members of the family were also deeply touched.
Especially Old Master Gu and Gu Kai.
They have been with the soldiers at the headquarters for several months, and they deeply know that it is not easy for everyone.
The two of them were injured, but those young people suffered only more losses than them, not less than them.
Especially the little soldiers in charge of security. After seeing that the old man and Mr. Yang couldn't eat the pancake at all, they never ate a piece of dried fish or porridge containing vegetables.
Save your own rations for the two old men to eat.
For a few months, those young people didn't get better, either rot here or ulcers there, and finally two people almost lost their lives due to severe allergies.
It was because of the serious protest from the expert group that Country E sent some more food.
And the food was extracted from someone's mouth, and the people in the work group couldn't take it into account.
And this will continue.
Although as the first group of expatriate members, Gu Kai and the others have successfully completed their tasks, it is clear that no matter how much work they do, they are far from meeting the needs of Country E.
In the future, there will be more groups like Gu Kai and the others, who have supernatural abilities and special skills will be sent out.
Even after the news of cooperation with country E spreads, it is very likely that more countries will be allied.
At that time, it is estimated that we will go to more countries.
Their father and son will definitely not go again. In the past few months, the ability users trained by the national army have been enough to complete such a task.
But no matter who goes, the suffering is always the same.
Therefore, the anger of Old Man Gu, Gu Kai and Shen Cong is different. They have a deeper understanding of the silent contributions made by thousands of soldiers like Wei Yan, Liu Tuan, and Xiao Liang.
They are exchanging their hard work, sweat, and even health for more resources and energy for the country.
The purpose of doing this is not for themselves, but for the people to rebuild their homes and return to normal life as soon as possible.
The more you know, the better you can understand each other.
Looking at the things that Xiao Liang brought back at this time, the old man thought that it was pulled out of the mouths of these young people, and it was impossible to collect them.
He waved his hands again and again: "Xiao Liang, don't tell me so much, I don't lack anything at home, and I have nothing to do with my body. Don't say that I don't need to make up, even if I need it, I can't grab food from your group of children.
Then What's the matter?!
Take it back to me! If you don't take it, I'll give it to Liu Tuan in person. If you want me to run again with this old bone, then I'll get up now."
He said Struggling to get up.
This time can make the trabecular anxious.
He saw that the old man was really here, and he didn't mean to scare him at all, so he quickly stepped forward to support him, and hurriedly discouraged him.
At the same time, he turned his head to look at Gu Kai and Shen Cong with a look of help.
Shen Cong was "educated" by her husband last night, and she also learned a lot of inside information.
At this time, their grievances against Liu Tuan also dissipated a lot.
Seeing the quarrel between her father-in-law and Xiao Liang, she didn't say a word, but went forward and took out the box of eggs from her backpack, and then put all the other things back.
Said: "I took the initiative to accept this box of eggs, and I also received your affection for my dad.
Xiaoliang, go back and tell Liu Tuan to tell him not to run away. My dad has grown his own medicine, and he was the first to prescribe it. At the clinic, there are also some spare medicines for nourishing the body. The medicines
we have at home may be better than the medicines that can be found in the city hospital, so let him not bother.
If you take other things back, who should give them back? At the same time, he also helped me and Shi Chen to take a leave. We haven't been here for a while, and I will be at home with my dad and the others."
When he came in the morning, Liu Tuan had given Xiaoliang an anti-epidemic shot and told him that Cong seemed really annoyed this time.
Let him try to find an opportunity to persuade.
After all, everyone knew that the Shen family, although the person who came out to deal with the outside world was Gu Kai, and the most respected person in the whole family was Mr. Gu, but the one who really had the most say was always Shen Cong.
If she really wants to make a decision, Gu Kai needless to say, she will always be the first to support her, and the old man will have nothing to say.
If she really offends Shen Cong, if she leaves the working group with her family and stops serving the government...
Liu Tuanguang will have a headache just thinking about it.
He now felt that Shen Cong had the greatest opinion on him, and he didn't dare to run as a living target for a while, so he sent Xiao Liang to be the spearhead.
Xiao Liang was ready to be scolded, but he didn't expect the Shen family to be so informed and reasonable, even Shen Cong was so open-minded, and even asked him to ask for leave!
For a while, Xiao Liang couldn't react, and looked at her stupidly, stuck.
Seeing Xiaoliang like this, Shen knew that Liu Tuan must be talking about him behind his back.
She glared at him pretending to be annoyed: "What's the matter, I'm so good? To frighten our team leader like this? Co-authored in your hearts, I just don't understand the matter?"
Xiao Liang said in one sentence. She smiled embarrassingly, and waved her hands repeatedly.
Xiaoliang left, and before he left, he just shoved back a few handfuls of dried noodles, and he was determined not to leave it.
In desperation, Gu Kai had to take it.
Seeing him take it, Xiao Liang left happily.
From the lightness of his footsteps, you can see how good this guy is, he can go back for business!
After sending Xiao Liang away, Shen Cong didn't go out for a day.
All the things upstairs were left to Shi Chen and Zhou Ying's family to do. She stayed at home and cooked three meals a day for the father and son, and made medicine.
Speaking of cooking, this is really not Shen Cong's forte.
Before the end of the world, she didn't do well, not to mention that she had experienced a doomsday that was longer than others.
But she has a cheating artifact!
There is nothing in the space.
Shen's mother, Cheng Ru, worked overtime every day before the end of the world to cook so many delicious food, and she has only eaten a little bit until now.
Now you can take it out to supplement nutrition for Gu Kai and the old man.
Shi Chen and Cancan were determined not to come to eat after Xiao Liang came.
The two children understood very well. They knew that Shen Cong would definitely make nutritious meals during this time, and they were unwilling to come and take advantage of it.
Seeing their firm attitude, Shen Cong didn't force him to stay, in fact, he was more or less relieved.
After all, this way, she doesn't have any inner pressure when she takes things out.
What the family didn't expect was that Shi Lei and Cao Hongmin actually touched them early the next morning, and Sun Qing came with them.
It wasn't even eight o'clock in the morning when they arrived at Shen's house, which was enough to prove that they were on their way before dawn.
Seeing them, Shen Cong was extremely surprised. While letting people into the room, he asked, "Why are you here?"
"We only learned last night that the old man and Gu Kai were back, and that they were injured
. I heard that I was in a hurry at the time, and we wanted to come here last night.
Later, Uncle Shen pulled us back and said that we should come back this morning. Alas, we were driving your car when we came.â
Lao Cao took the lead in explaining road.
As soon as Shen Cong heard it, he knew that it must be Liu Tuan and the others who told Wei Yan, and then Wei Yan should be in the community, and these people heard it.
Otherwise, with Wei Yan's personality, he would not have deliberately told them.
Although she didn't have to hide this from everyone, she was still moved by the fact that people in the community could come so far.
Gu Kai also followed and saw that they were happy for a while, and then his eyes fell on the things in the hands of the three of them.
He frowned: "You brought us something from the
public family?" "There is no such thing as public or unfair. The community belongs to all of us, and the things of the community belong to all of us.
What's more, this is a point of the residents of our entire community. Everyone agrees."
Shi Lei said, holding up the chicken in his hand: "These are the fattest two caught by Lao Cao himself. Bring them to stew for you and Uncle Gu. !"
He said, without Shen Cong speaking, he found the kitchen and put the chicken in with Lao Cao.
And Sun Qing also put the eggs that she had carefully held all the way on the kitchen counter, and said, "This is also the heart of the people in our community. I chose them one by one. It's very fresh!"
After that, she put the The bag was also taken down, and a few loofahs, a few tomatoes, and two eggplants were taken out from it.
A little embarrassed, he said: "Sister Gonggong, Brother Gu, I planted this myself. I'll add a dish for you, so don't dislike it."
Chapter 102
The old man has been out of energy these days, and he often falls asleep when he talks.
So even though it had been two days since he came back, Shen Cong didn't dare to chat with him.
After letting the three people sit down in the living room, Shen Cong said to them, "I'm sorry, you all sit down first, my dad is sleeping, he's not in good spirits these days, let's not call him, let's talk by ourselves?
" Hearing this, Lao Cao hurriedly said, "Don't yell! It's a good thing for the old man to sleep, and the right to sleep more is to support his spirit.
We just came to see, we can rest assured knowing that Xiao Gu and the old man are all right, nothing else matters. The important thing, what do you call him to do?"
Shi Lei and Sun Qing also nodded.
When Gu Kai left, it was at the worst time for the insect plague in the community, and he really didn't know what happened afterward.
Although he came back for two days, there were a lot of things at home in the past two days. The couple talked more about the situation of him and his father in country E, and didn't say a few words about the matter here.
Now that he saw the chickens and eggs they brought, Gu Kai was really curious. He had no idea when the community started raising chickens?
Can you still be self-sufficient and have eggs to eat?
It was all right now, and he naturally asked the doubts in his heart.
This question scratched the itch of the two captains. After all, this is what they are most proud of recently.
How many gathering points around are envious, jealous and hateful towards them for this!
So the two of them talked to Gu Kai incessantly.
Starting from how they went to Xinji to grab chickens, they talked about how many eggs they can collect every day now, and they were very happy!
Gu Kai is also happy to hear this.
Hearing it, he was also excited. Not only did he not stop them, but he also asked questions from time to time, and even more interested the two captains. The more they talked, the more lively they became.
What they said, Shen Cong was a participant, naturally nothing new, so Sun Qing told her what happened last night.
It turned out that when Liu Tuan called last night, Wei Yanzheng called several stewards of the community to hold a meeting with members of the working group.
It is mainly to say that the next step is to expand the chicken shed in case the rainy season comes.
When Liu Tuan called, Wei Yan didn't expect to talk about family affairs, and he didn't go out. As a result, the sound transmission effect of the satellite phone was so good that everyone listened to what he said.
As soon as they heard that the old man and Gu Kai were both ill, the people in the community immediately became anxious.
The meeting didn't open immediately, everyone had to come to see it, and finally Wei Yan stopped them.
"The head of the guard said that the family doesn't know. If we came directly, we were afraid that Uncle Gu would be frightened at night.
Captain Shi and the others thought it was right, and then we decided to come over this morning.
Aunt Cheng and Uncle Shen didn't know about Gu either . The uncle and brother-in-law were sick. Yesterday, I learned that Aunt Cheng was in a hurry at the time, and she had to come over immediately.
Then my sister Xixi said that if you want to come, the whole family should come. She said that you can't see your cooking skills. My brother-in-law and the others can't eat the food you cooked, so I'm too embarrassed to tell me.
Let my aunt come over to cook for my uncle and brother-in-law."
Having said this, Sun Qing couldn't help herself and laughed.
Shen Cong rubbed his temples.
Although my cooking skills are really not good, my sister doesn't save face for her too much!
"Sister Xixi said that she would settle down at home and come over to clean up the dishes. Then Captain Shi told Uncle Shen that he wanted to borrow the car at home first, and Uncle Shen agreed.
So we came first. Now, uncles and aunts may come over in the afternoon."
Speaking of which, Sun Qing seemed to be afraid that Shen Cong would not be at ease, so she quickly said: "Sister Cong Cong, don't worry, I told Sister Xixi, I can't help with anything else, and IÂ Â Â can still take care of the dishes at home. I will go over to water it, and I promise that nothing will happen to the dishes at home, so don't worry."
"I'm not worried about this." Shen Cong waved his hand.
Then she looked at the few people who were still chatting next to her, and lowered her voice and asked, "I heard that Xu Bin returned to the community to find you?"
The smile on Sun Qing's face suddenly disappeared.
She hummed softly.
Shen Cong frowned.   She said: "It stands to reason that this is your private matter, and I, an outsider, shouldn't say anything more. It's just Sun Qing, after being in contact for so long, my sister and I
both treat you as a sister.
I want to say more.
Xu Bin is not credible, and what he said has no credibility.
You better think about it before you make a decision."
Sun Qing nodded: "Sister, don't worry, what he said. I don't believe a word of it. I have asked the guards to help me check about my parents. The guards said that he had told his comrades in the capital and asked me to wait for the news.
I would not distrust my own people, and then put my hopes on it. It's a person like him.
And I always think my parents will come back to find me, as long as I stay in the community well, they will definitely come back."
When she said the last sentence, Sun Qing's eyes were wet.
Shen Cong didn't say a word, just stretched out his hand and hugged her shoulder, feeling sad for a while.
I heard that my uncle and cousin came back, and Jiashu made a special trip back last night.
Because of the tight schedule, he didn't stay at home much, and went back after seeing two people.
Just before leaving, he told Shen Cong that he had met someone from the community and chatted with him for a while.
It was mentioned in the middle that Sun Qing's ex-boyfriend ran back to the community again and wanted to take her to the capital to join her parents.
Said that person said that he had met Sun Qing's parents at a base near the capital, but at that time he was too embarrassed to say hello because he had just broken up with Sun Qing.
He asked Sun Qing to go with him, saying that the base was a bit biased. If he didn't say it, Sun Qing would never find her parents in her life.
That person was gossiping, and when he said it, he scolded Xu Bin so hard, saying that if the people in the community hadn't seen him with a lame leg, they would have almost arrested him and beat him!
Said this man was too bad.
People forgot after they said it, but Jiashu took it to heart.
He knew that Shen Cong and Sun Qing had a good relationship, so he came to tell her this time, to give her a chance to have a good talk with the little girl. Don't believe a word of what such a scumbag man said.
Shen Cong was still thinking about finding time to find Sun Qing these few days, but she didn't expect that she would come first today.
Hearing what she said, Shen Cong felt relieved.
But she still didn't forget to remind again: "Recently, you don't go out alone. If you are going to town or other places, it is best to find someone to be your companion.
Sometimes it is necessary to be on guard. If some people are forced to I'm in a hurry, what can I do?"
She pointed out the window: "I saw Xu Bin before when your brother-in-law and I were passing by the ruins at the door. He looked very depressed and had a lame leg. He should have I have always lived there. But
now that the city is renovating the old city, all these ruins are being cleaned up, and it is impossible to live in it.
I was thinking yesterday that he should be looking for you now because he cannot live in the city . Go down, I'll treat you as a life-saving straw.
You must be careful, you must be on guard."
The more Shen Cong said, the more worried she became. She didn't tell Sun Qing at all, she cut off the words of the three people, and told the two captains what they said just now.
Shi Lei and the others knew that Xu Bin was looking for the past, but they didn't take it to heart, and thought it was a young man's relationship problem.
But now that Shen Cong explained the matter, they immediately realized the seriousness of the matter.
He immediately stated: "Xiao Shen, leave this matter to us, don't worry. Sun Qing is from our community, how can she not be bullied by an outsider. We are here to ensure her safety. "
Yesterday when Jiashu was talking to Shen Cong, Gu Kai wasn't there, it was the first time he heard about it, and he was very surprised.
He also hurriedly followed his wife's words and said a few words, emphasizing that Xu Bin was probably related to some evil forces in the city.
Let the community pay attention to this person.
With the deliberate explanation of the two of them, it is naturally impossible for the two captains to be a little perfunctory.
Shi Lei even thought about it with Shen Cong, and said on the spot that Sun Qing would not be allowed to go out alone in the future.
If you go to collect waste or go to the town, you must go with the people in the community, at least ensure that more than two people travel at the same time, and then let the doorman open the door for her, otherwise she will not be released.
The straight Sun Qing's face was wrinkled into walnuts, and her expression was extremely embarrassing.
Fortunately, the old man finally woke up at this time, and Sun Qing finally got out of the predicament of being paid attention by everyone.
The old man was very happy when he heard that several people from the community came to see him, and repeatedly told them to come in.
Shi Lei took the lead, followed by Lao Cao, and the three walked into Old Master Gu's bedroom with a smile.
But as soon as they entered, the three of them couldn't laugh.
Although they already knew that their father and son were injured before they came, when they saw Gu Kai just now, they saw that he had lost a lot of weight.
But that feeling is completely different from the horror of seeing the old man.
Seeing that the old man was so thin that he lost his appearance, his whole body seemed to have shrunk, and he looked like a teenage year old. Shi Lei and Cao Hongmin, two men in their thirties, stood at the door of the house, stunned. Can't take a single step.
Lao Cao's distressed lips were trembling, and he couldn't say a word for a long time.
In the end, Shi Lei took a step forward and asked, "Uncle Gu, what's the matter with you? What crime did you suffer from!" At
this point, his voice even brought out choked sobbing.
The current situation of the old man is so different from the previous appearance, it was completely unacceptable for a while.
Sun Qing stood behind and wiped away her tears.
Seeing them like this, the old man smiled lightly.   Said: " Look
at what's wrong with you guys? I'm fine, nothing happened! I'm just a little thinner, and I'll come back. Don't worry about it, I know about my body."
The deputy didn't believe it at all, and everyone was so worried that they couldn't do it, and the old man directly changed the topic.
He pointed to the stool in the room and said, "You sit, I happened to have something to do with you.
Lao Cao, what is the situation in the community now, and what preparations have you made for the prevention and control of the epidemic that may occur after the rainy season?
" The captain never expected that the old man would ask about work in one mouth when he saw them, and the two suddenly became nervous.
Chapter 103
Shi Lei and Cao Hongmin never thought that the old man was so concerned about the situation of the community even when he was seriously ill.
The two of them told the old man in great detail what happened in the community recently and the preparations they had made.
Sure enough, Old Man Gu, like Gu Kai, was very happy when he heard that the community depended on raising chickens and preparing feed for the chickens and then defeated the insects.
Then I heard that those chickens can lay hundreds of eggs a day on average because they eat well, which has brought the whole community's economy alive. It is even more joyful, and the smiles on their faces are not broken.
After that, the two captains told the old man that they had received a notice from the city to prepare for the rainy season that may come.
They have decided to expand their chicken farm.
Hearing the rainy season, the smile on the old man's face disappeared, replaced by a visible worry.
Seeing him like this, the two captains looked at each other, and then Lao Cao asked, "Uncle Gu, is this rainy season really coming? We have never had a rainy season here in Beining.
In my impression, we were here before the earthquake. Drought is the most talked about every day, and every year there is no stream, but there has never been any heavy rain.
Isn't that supposed to be the climate in Nan'an?"
Speaking of Nan'an, the atmosphere in the room was stagnant.
Where is Nan'an now?
The whole city was soaked in the sea, and this place name will never exist again.
Finally, the old man spoke up.
He said: "What time is it now? Can it be compared to before the earthquake? How is the weather a little bit the same now?
Have you seen acid rain before? Who would have thought that so many bugs would pop up out of nowhere? ?
Now nothing is in line with the law.
All we can do is to do our best to prevent, to make preparations ahead, just in case. No
one could answer what he said, and the two captains could only take a long sigh.
Gu Kai and Shen Cong needless to say, they know a little bit about the end of the world.
Sun Qing kept her eyes fixed. Staring at the old man, he seemed to take his words as the truth. He just wanted to listen more and understand more. The
old man also sighed: "Who knows if the rainy season will come? Now the country is riddled with holes, and many advanced equipment is said to be gone.
I heard that those weather satellites can't be contacted now, and it is very difficult to predict the weather.
It's just that the rainy season is coming, and it's also the news passed down from above. After all, the information obtained by the upper management is always more accurate than ours, right?
Whatever the leader tells us to do, we just do it, and we will never suffer any loss. "
"That's right!" "Old Cao nodded again and again.
Shi Lei also said: "Yes, there are many capable people in the country, and what we don't understand, naturally other people understand. Uncle Gu is right, let's not think too much, we can do whatever the country asks us to do.
Just like the previous insect plague, it was only a few days after the notification, but it came without saying it?
If we hadn't done the preparatory work ahead and moved everything that could be moved into the house, the loss would definitely have been even more! "
These words made everyone in the room nod their heads.
With Mr. Gu's right words, the three of them couldn't stay in the room any longer. When they
thought about the chickens at home and the mess, the two captains asked for help from the bottom of their buttocks. It looks like it's on fire, so I can't wait to hurry back now.
Shen Cong and the others won't stay long.
It's just that when sending them to the door, Shen Cong thought about it and suggested: "Captain Shi, Captain Cao, that chicken ring should be higher. Go ahead, don't think about the rainy season, just think about the flood.
Think about it, what should I do if there is a flood? What do I need to do to keep those chickens alive and let the people in our community survive without incident?
Just be prepared to that extent. "
She immediately bluffed the three people!
Shi Lei didn't even leave, he turned his face and said, "Xiao Shen, what news have you got?" ! "
Old Cao was so shocked that his face changed.
He was mainly in charge of the internal affairs of the community, and Shen Cong's words were most closely related to him. It was impossible for him not to be nervous.
He reached out and patted his chest and said: "Xiao Shen, don't scare me, your brother's heart attack can be scared out of you.
You tell us the truth, don't you..."
He pointed to the top of his head: "What's the point? "
Shen Cong shook his hand: "Don't think blindly, I don't know, and no one has given me any clues. The
three people on the opposite side all looked in disbelief.
Sun Qing knew that she didn't have the right to speak at the moment, so she didn't say a word. She just bit her lower lip and stared at Shen Cong, stubbornly trying to hear something from her mouth. The news.
Shen Cong sighed and said, "Let me make it clear.
The two brothers, and Sun Qing, I didn't treat you as outsiders, I told you all the real things.
I won't say this if I change the person or the environment. The
three people on the opposite side nodded heavily together.
Gu Kai silently closed the door again, and let the three of them go back into the room.
The three people were not in a hurry to leave now, and they did not sit, but stood in a semicircle. He surrounded Shen Cong.
Gu Kai walked to his wife's side and stood still, acting as her backing again.
Shen Cong said, "I've been thinking lately that the current weather is so chaotic, this chaos is not normal. "
The three people's eyes dimmed for a while, and no one said a word, waiting for her to continue.
"Don't think I'm making a fool of myself. I thought about it carefully. It started from the earliest Qingzhou earthquake, then Xishan, then our Beining, and then later floods, tsunamis, flash floods, volcanic eruptions... until the recent drought and insect plague. In
the same way, each of them is an unprecedented catastrophe. It will not be encountered once in hundreds of years, thousands of years.
Now, it has come one by one in less than three years!
And it is still a large scale, It is global in nature.
What is this situation? This is basically aimed at exterminating human beings!
To say that it is a natural disaster is actually a bit nicer.
Now this situation should be regarded as the end of the world, right? The
more I think about it, the more I think about it. I feel like this is the earth reshuffling, and I don't want us to pass.
So I thought, how difficult it was before, and it won't be much better after that.
Or from then on, the whole earth will stop and nothing will happen. It happens, once it happens. No matter what kind of natural disaster, it must go in the direction of disaster. It
is absolutely possible that we can get through it smoothly.
Therefore, we must have a mental preparation for ourselves, and donât just think about good things. Think about it badly, and make full preparations." The
three of them raised their heads together, their eyes full of horror!
Lao Cao opened his mouth, but couldn't say a word.
Shi Lei's hands were tightly clenched into fists, and he turned his face to the side. The expression on his face was anger, despair, and sadness after seeing everything.
And Sun Qing shed tears directly.
Obviously, everyone who Shen Cong said is actually aware of it, but they either didn't dare to think about it before, or they lied to themselves and didn't want to admit it.
Once the truth is broken, no one can refute it.
Shen Cong also didn't want to see everyone like this, but she still felt that the vaccinations that should be taken should be shot in the front.
Although it has only been more than two years since the earthquake, in fact, more things have passed than Shen Cong has experienced in the past six years in his life.
The direction of time has changed completely, and her previous experiences have no reference value for the future.
The reason why she used to mention the rainy season in front of Liu Tuan was because the bugs stayed in Beining for more than 20 days, and then a heavy rain made them disappear.
So in her concept, that heavy rain is bound to come.
Unexpectedly, the heavy rain in this life is coming, but it is acid rain!
The acid rain only fell for three days, and then it turned into a long sunny day.
The difference is too big.
So Shen Cong himself doesn't know what will happen next? Do you still count on your previous experience?
This feeling that she has completely lost control of the future actually made her feel a little bit at a loss.
So she can only make things more serious, and let everyone be alert, at least if something happens in the future, you can take precautions.
Seeing everyone was so shocked, Shen Cong felt a little uncomfortable, but he didn't regret what he said.
Gu Kai's eyes swept over everyone, knowing that the deterrent effect of his wife's hope had been achieved.
But it's not enough to shock and frighten everyone, so what should we do in the future?
Therefore, he decided to follow Shen Cong's words and start to appease.
Gu Kai said: "Natural disasters, doomsdays, each has its own way of living. We live
in good times, and we can live in bad days.
We don't have to suffer so much, let alone despair. Now, what hurdles are there in the future?
No matter how difficult it is, is that it? Where else can it be difficult? Having said that, he took his wife's hand and continued: "
Shen Cong said this because we are our own people, and because our family is together, we share misfortune and good fortune.
She hopes that everyone will not take chances, but pay attention to every possible disaster and take it seriously.
But it doesn't mean that the days after this really can't go on, it's not.
Team Shi, Team Cao, letâs say in good conscience, isnât life much better now than it was at the beginning? Naturally , the
two captains nodded again and again.
Gu Kai smiled and continued, "Although there have been many disasters, we have grown in our skills!" Now we have a way to make plants grow faster, and a lot of people have abilities.
If this was in the past, no one dared to think about it, right?
What's more, the government has been going all out to serve the people and make efforts to improve everyone's life.
I'm not afraid to tell everyone the truth. Recently, our country has done several major things, and it has already paid off.
If nothing else, it is estimated that after the new year, the problem of electricity consumption in our lives will be solved, and ordinary households will be able to use electricity by then. "
"Really?" "Sun Qing asked in surprise.
"Really. Gu Kai nodded earnestly.
"With so many people twisted into a rope, why can't we endure this hardship?" Don't be afraid, if it's a big deal, let's continue to carry it together! "
Gu Kai's remarks sound like big truths, but everyone present knows that this is definitely not empty talk.
This is what everyone has been doing on weekdays and really felt it.
Because of this, these words become Extremely powerful.
After the couple's "kneading" that was both intimidating and encouraging, the three of them walked out of the house in vain.
There was a trance on his face that he had not fully understood the words.
But you don't need to ask to know that these remarks have attracted enough attention from them, at least when they prepare in the community later, they will never have any luck.
Father Shen, Father Shen, Shen Xi came when the sky darkened with the two children.
Because they were afraid that they would carry too many things, people would be so crowded that when Shi Lei and the others went back in the morning, Shen Cong specially asked them to drive back their electric car.
Fortunately, I did this, otherwise Father Shen and the others would not be able to sit down!
They really brought all the food they could bring at home, mainly the vegetables they had recently harvested.
After the plague of insects passed, apart from the acid rain of those three days, there have been no other disasters recently.
And because of the formation, the vegetables have been growing very well at home, and besides the part that should be handed over to the community, there is still a lot left.
Not to mention those green leafy vegetables, those that cannot be stored must be eaten as much as possible.
As for potatoes and sweet potatoes, Father Shen has always been well preserved.
Like eggplants, beans, pumpkins, tomatoes, and mother Shen, they can also be dried in the sun, and those that can be made into sauces are all well picked.
After all, there is a refrigerator at home that can be used, and it is more convenient than others to store it.
Now that I know that my in-laws and son-in-law are injured and malnourished, it is natural to think that everything I can bring is ready.
Both cars were packed close to bursting.
After Tongtong and Shanshan returned to Beining, they only went out to play with their mother and aunt once, and then they encountered an earthquake, so they didn't play well at all.
This time it was considered a real trip for the two children, not to mention the excitement.
As soon as he walked downstairs, he started shouting at the top of his voice, shouting all the people in the room.
Shen Cong and his wife, Zhou Ying and his wife, plus Shi Chen, went down to help.
For such a mighty group of people, it took three full trips to move all the things. After moving up, everyone was so tired that they stood there panting, and they couldn't say anything.
Shen Cong looked at the half-room pile of bottles and jars, and suddenly laughed.
She said to Shen's father and mother: "Mom and Dad, you are well prepared, and the move is complete, so it saves me from having to worry about it.
I told Shi Chen before that I'm going to help you move. You will all move here in the future, and you won't be returning to the community anymore.
Needless to say, you don't have to leave after you live here."
Hearing what she said, Shen's father, Shen Jianyi, was the first to quit.
He couldn't take his breath away, and directly retorted: "That's not good, there are still a lot of things at home! Let's not talk about those dishes, and the traditional Chinese medicine that your father-in-law planted, they are all treasures!
You are willing, you ask Ask if Brother Gu is happy?
We will stay for a few days, and we will leave when Brother Gu and Xiaokai are in good health."
Elder Gu was also very happy to see the family of relatives and old friends whom he hadn't seen for several months.
He didn't even want to lie down on the bed anymore, so he insisted that his son help him up and sat on the reclining chair in the outhouse.
At this moment he was sitting half leaning and half listening, listening to everyone talking.
Hearing that he asked himself, he immediately smiled and said, "What's the point of being happy or not? It's good to keep those medicines, but you don't need to stumble people because of them.
I agree with Gonggong's suggestion, this time Just stay longer when you come, don't think about going back immediately.
My body is definitely not easy to move for a while, and I can't follow you back to the community. You have the right to accommodate me and move to Come and live here.
Our family, it is better not to be separated or not to be separated all the time.
I don't talk about my body, I may have to support it in a short time, and I won't go to work.
Gonggong and Xiaokai must still have to go back to the work group, they can't always stay at home.
There are also Shi Chen and Cancan, who also have to go to work.
The juniors will definitely not be able to return to the community for the time being.
You've been living there all the time, and the kids are bound to have to worry about both ends.
Just treat it as a peace of mind for the children. When you move in, they can go to work with peace of mind and don't have to worry about home.
I also dipped in the light of my younger brothers and sisters, and someone made a hot meal to eat. "
Shen's father and Shen's mother really wanted to stay longer this time, especially when the two captains and Sun Qing returned at noon today and told them about the old man's situation.
They have realized that the family here cannot lack But to
be honest, at least Father Shen is a little reluctant to let them live here forever. I am used to living in the countryside, but   I am
not used to living in a building again.
Itâs not too small, but itâs not too small to be as big as a villa at home? Whatâs
more, there is such a big front and back yard at home.
But the old manâs words made him unable to refute, especially the sentence âThey always have to go to work... Some people give Make a hot meal to eat. "The
children have all gone to work, leaving the elder brother at home alone, let alone the children are worried, he can't be relieved!
Thinking of this, Father Shen didn't say anything about refusal, just said: "We'll talk about it later." , Anyway, now we are not going. "
He looked at Old Man Gu and suppressed the sadness in his heart: "When will your body be fully recovered, let's talk about other things." "
In fact, these words are no different from promising to live here permanently, so the old man Gu naturally nodded happily.
Originally, Mr. Gu lived downstairs, and it has been like this since they moved back to Fulin.
At that time, the family tree mainly lived downstairs, and the old man didn't want to go upstairs to join in the fun with the young couple, so he chose to live with his nephew.
And this time, considering that he was weak, he was too tired to go up and down the stairs, so he didn't move.
But after the Shen family moved in, Father Shen was the first to express disapproval of this living situation.
He said directly: "Brother Gu, you live upstairs, the upstairs is quiet and close to the rooftop, which is suitable for you.
We live downstairs with Xixi and the others, the two children are noisy, and the movement of cooking and other things will not be small. ,   it 's easy to disturb your rest.
As for going up and down the stairs... With so many people in the family, who can't help you? Let alone how many steps can you walk when you get down?"
Opinion.
Moreover, it is said that it is close to the rooftop, and no one can understand what Father Shen means. That is to say that it is close to the array, which is helpful for Father Gu to recover his health.
So although five people came to the house all of a sudden, but because they were all very familiar, and they were in their own home, they packed up quickly, and everything was ready before going to bed.
In the days that followed, not to mention the old man Gu, even Shen Cong and the others also enjoyed the blessing.
High-rise residences are still different from villas in the countryside. The biggest difference is that
once the door is closed, you can do what you want to do, eat what you want, and don't have to think about what other people think.
Shen Cong and the others live on the 19th floor. The two houses downstairs and opposite have been bought by Liu Tuan and the others. Except for growing vegetables, they are all small warriors.
The little soldiers only come back at night, they are not at home during the day, those houses are empty during the day, and there is no one at all.
Zhou Ying and his wife are very borderline people. Although they are very familiar with the Shen family, they have always grasped the proportions that should be grasped.
It's like when Shen Cong and the others moved back, Shi Chen and Cancan often came over to eat and drink, but Zhou Ying and his family didn't.
Including Xiaoyu will not take the initiative to come to the door.
Now that the Shen family has all moved in, the Zhou Ying family will not come forward when they eat.
They even avoided suspicion, except for the occasional meeting upstairs when they were pouring vegetables, and a few children playing on the top floor. They even knocked on the door and spoke very rarely.
As for Shi Chen, although he had said a lot of angry words before, after being reprimanded by the old man, he obediently took back all the words.
These few days, Shen Cong stayed at home to take care of his family, but he returned to the work group early.
Even Cancan was taken by him.
Shi Chen didn't intend to avoid suspicion or anything. He was close to the Shen family now, from the bottom of his heart, and he had spontaneously regarded himself as a member of the family, and had no awareness of avoiding suspicion at all.
He is so busy.
Now all bases in Beining are preparing for rain and disaster prevention. He is also an important member of the working group. How could he be able to escape?
Therefore, the only people who stay at home are really only their own family.
In this case, there is no need for Cheng Ru to cover up when she cooks again.
Stewed chicken soup, roasted ribs, steamed fish and fried meat, all kinds of stewed soups... That's how nutrition comes from.
I can't wait to get a Shiquan Dabu pill to mend Old Master Gu's body and bones in one go.
The old man who was eating straight couldn't help but nag, saying that he, an old Chinese medicine doctor for so many years, knew less remedies than Mother Shen.
I don't know where she got it from?
Don't care where those remedies came from, more than ten days have passed, both the old man and Gu Kai's complexion looks much better than before.
There was even a little flesh on the sunken cheeks.
Such results made Cheng Ru extremely satisfied and more motivated.
Time passes by day by day, and a new year begins.
The family had a happy New Year's Day.
On New Year's Day, it may be that the previous bugs were a little flustered. Although no one in the family said anything, everyone would subconsciously glance out of the window from time to time throughout the day.
I was afraid that if I didn't see it at a glance, something unexpected would come out.
This went on for a full day.
Fortunately, nothing happened.
Although Wei Yan and Jiashu did not come back to celebrate the festival with their family due to work reasons, they both entrusted people to bring things back.
Although those things are not precious, they are nothing more than a few fruits and a small box of candy, but they always represent the hearts of two people.
He also expressed to his family that they are living well now, and they don't have to worry about them.
All in all, the whole family happily spent a safe month together, and they lived happily ever after.
Everyone thinks this is good, and if it can continue like this, there will be nothing to ask for.
But happiness is always short-lived, and disasters always come quietly when people are unaware and most undefended.
Chapter 104
The tenth day after New Year's Day.
After lunch, Mr. Gu went back to his room to rest while the others sat in the living room chatting.
"
Mongmong, when are you going to go back to work?" Shen Jianyi leaned on the sofa, fanned with a big fan, and asked his daughter who was cutting watermelon in the kitchen.
"Let's talk about it in a while, there's nothing I can do in the group right now."
Shen Cong said calmly without turning his head.
Shen Jianyi smacked his mouth in disapproval: "Why is there no work? Look at Shi Chen, look at Cancan, they are all children, they are so busy every day that they don't even have time to go home. Go back. Did you die here? You just don't want to go."
Shen Cong smiled, but didn't say anything.
There's really been nothing wrong with her lately.
Her abilities are somewhat useful for building houses, but are completely useless for growing crops.
Sometimes Chen alone is enough to maintain the formation, and there is no need for two people to go together.
Besides, in the previous month, she helped the planting bases in the whole region build such a large number of iron roofs, even if she took a break for a while.
She had explained this to her father many times, and the old man knew everything in his heart.
His repeat of the same old tune at the moment only means one thing - he's bored here and wants to go home.
He knew that it was useless to mention it now, and no one in the family would agree to let him go, so he began to complain about nothing.
It's just that everyone is used to this situation, and the old man Ren was chatting endlessly in the living room, and the whole family didn't hear it.
Shen's mother, Cheng Ru, wore reading glasses and read "100 Examples of Nutritional Soup" in her hand.
Complete disregard for his wife's grievances.
Her mentality is much better than that of Father Shen.
In the eyes of the old lady, as long as you live with the children, as long as the family is safe, where is the place to live?
It's better to live anywhere than to be apart.
Shen Xi has also been annoyed by his father for the past two days.
At the beginning, she persuaded a few words along the way, but now she understands that Dad has nothing to do, he is just too busy.
In that case, let him speak.
Anyway, he was just complaining.
His own father, Shen Xi, is still clear, even though he is usually fine, he seems to have a lot of resentment, but he is actually the most hard-faced and soft-hearted person.
Now that Uncle Gu's health has just gotten better, and his brother-in-law's arm has scabbed over, it's the time when someone needs to take care of him.
So Shenxi didn't pick up what his father said, and turned to play building blocks with his two children.
Father Shen talked for a long time, from the time his daughter didn't go to work well to the abnormal weather, it was going to be the twelfth lunar month and it was still so hot.
Besides, I don't know if Sun Qing remembered to open the window and don't suffocate the vegetables in the house.
At the beginning, the daughter and son-in-law received two more words, but no one in the whole family paid any attention to him.
He stared in anger, but there was nothing he could do.
His eyes turned all over the family, and the old man stood up angrily and walked straight to the stairs.
"Dad, go up after eating the watermelon. The roof is hot right now." Gu Kai put down the formation chart he was studying and called behind him.
"If you don't eat, you're full of anger!" The old man waved his hand and went upstairs.
But before he took two steps, someone outside the window suddenly shouted, "It's raining! It's raining again!"
The voice split because of panic, and the heart of the person who heard it trembled.
It was as if the scream was ringing in his ears.
Father Shen paused, stopped going upstairs, turned around and walked back towards the living room quickly.
At this time, the whole family heard the shout, and they all stopped what they were doing and ran to the balcony together.
Fulin's house was originally a floor-to-ceiling window, and Shen Cong added an explosion-proof tempered glass at the back.
But even through two glass panes, you can clearly see the raindrops falling outside.
It was after twelve o'clock at noon, and when many people working outside were going home for dinner, there were people coming and going on the road in the downstairs community.
It may be that the acid rain left too much psychological shadow on everyone before. Seeing the rain, everyone screamed, ran, and avoided everywhere.
When the Shen family rushed to the window, they happened to be able to see the chickens and dogs jumping below.
Some people covered their heads and screamed in horror, some people quickly took off their clothes to wrap the children around them, women, and of course more people rushed under the cover with all their might...
Everyone's movements and postures were written deeply. deep fear.
Even though the Shen family was separated by two floors of glass, they still stood back subconsciously, and Shen Xi directly hugged the two children tightly.
"Our car is still downstairs!" Gu Kai suddenly said.
When his voice fell, Shen Jianyi yelled loudly: "No one can go downstairs!"
No one refuted the old man's order, all the people in the room pursed their lips and stood there staring out the window for a moment.
The rain is getting heavier.
At the beginning, there were big raindrops, standing on the 19th floor, you could see the raindrops hitting the dry soil on the ground, making small pits.
But soon, the rain turned into a line, and then into a water column, and the water column was thicker than a finger.
The road that had been dry and wanton with dust was slowly getting wet, and the gray breath in the air gradually faded away, replaced by thick water vapor.
"It's not like acid rain." Gu Kai pondered for a while and said.
Everyone felt it at the moment. The rain hit the ground, street lights, and even people didn't seem to cause any harm.
No more hoarse cries were heard.
Shen Cong stepped forward and suddenly opened the window, and a burst of cool moisture rushed towards him.
She subconsciously took a deep breath, and then said with certainty, "It's ordinary rain, without that sour taste!"
The faces of the whole family suddenly flooded with joy.
Everyone stepped forward, although they did not dare to open the window screens and stick their heads out, it would be good to be able to feel the long-lost water vapor.
At this time, the people downstairs also found that the rain was normal.
After more than two years of drought, it suddenly rained, and everyone was excited.
There was a burst of cheers from the crowd.
Soon, some brave people ran into the rain and fog, jumping, laughing, and feeling the moisture and coolness brought by the real rain.
"It's raining heavily, I'll move the car to a higher place." Gu Kai said and was about to leave.
"Don't get your arm wet, I'll go." Shen Cong stopped him.
"Dad, give me the car keys, and I will put the car in the space. Who knows when the rain will fall."
Shen Cong said softly.
Gu Kai turned to look at his wife.
Shen Cong's eyes didn't change, she looked very calm, but Gu Kai still felt the deep worry hidden in her heart from her.
"I'm going with Gonggong, Xiaokai, you stay at home." Shen Jianyi didn't listen to his daughter's words, and went to the shoe cabinet at the door to get an umbrella.
This time Gu Kai did not stop him.
The father and daughter walked to the door together.
Before taking two steps, Shen Cong suddenly turned his head back and said to Gu Kai who was still standing at the door: "My dad and I will go back to the community and try to come back before dinner."
This sentence suddenly came out, Not to mention Gu Kai, the whole family was very surprised.
"Why do you go back to the community in such a heavy rain? What's the matter?"
"That is, can't you go back after the rain stops?"
Cheng Ru and Shen Xi expressed their disapproval at the same time.
"Let's go back as early as possible." Shen Cong didn't explain, but his tone was very firm.
Father Shen stood beside her, looking at his stubborn daughter, his brows furrowed.
Although he had been clamoring to go home before, he definitely did not choose to go back at this time.
It's raining so hard outside, and the chassis of the electric car is low, and it's a bit dangerous to walk a long way in such weather.
What's more, the road outside is not as smooth as before. There are many places where the road can barely be called a road, and there are still potholes everywhere.
If something happened to the car on the road, it would be perfectly normal to leave the two of them on the road.
But looking at his daughter's attitude, he knew that there must be a reason, so he didn't say anything against it.
"I'll go with you." Gu Kai said that he was about to change his shoes.
"You stay at home." Shen Cong stopped again with a strong attitude.
"My dad and I are going in a car. You are all staying at home. Why are there so many people? Don't you mind taking up space? I have to pack things!"
After that, she grabbed her father and went straight to the building. run down.
Her speed is very fast, her attitude is very urgent, and she is even a little worried about whether her father can keep up.
Seeing her like this, no one can say anything to stop her, and it is useless to say the key.
Gu Kai went straight back to the house and stood in front of the window again. The others also came back and stood beside him.
At this moment, the rain has slowly connected from the water column into pieces.
The whole sky became dark.
The strong wind brought dark clouds, and thunderstorms exploded one after another, so frightened that the two children quickly hugged the adult's legs and buried their heads in the adult's arms.
Countless bolts of lightning seemed to tear the sky to shreds.
It was cloudless just now, and the sun was shining brightly. It was already dark outside and almost no one could be seen on the other side, as if it were night.
Gu Kai stared downstairs, wanting to see his wife's figure.
But the visibility was not the same as it was a few minutes ago, and he couldn't even see the small square downstairs.
You can't even see your own car or people driving.
The rain outside the window has become a water curtain, and the sky and the earth seem to be connected.
Looking around, the outside is like a huge frosted glass, foggy, if there is substance.
"The end of the world." Tong Tong, who was still holding her mother's leg, suddenly said.
The hearts of the whole family were suffocated by the childish words, as if they had been stabbed hard, and there was a suffocating feeling.
"Don't talk nonsense." Shen Xi whispered.
"It's the end of the world. Mom, does it look exactly like in the movie?" Tong Tong retorted in a low voice unwillingly.
Shen Xi pursed his lips, but didn't make a sound.
But I couldn't help thinking in my heart - this is much more like it than in the movie!
Shen Cong and Shen Jianyi were soaked wet by the heavy rain as soon as they exited the corridor.
Umbrellas don't work at all.
The rain hit him, and it was painful, like being slapped with a slap.
Couldn't open my eyes.
They simply stopped using umbrellas and tried to run to the car.
There was no one in the square at this moment, and all the people who had taken shelter from the rain before went to find a more suitable place, or went home.
Even if there are people, with such visibility, even face-to-face, you may not be able to see someone on the opposite side, so there is nothing that will be discovered.
Shen Cong directly put his car into the space, and then got into the driver's seat of his father's car, and Shen Jianyi also got into the car at the fastest speed.
The movements of the two people were already fast, and even so, the car seat was wetted by the effort of sliding the door.
However, there is nothing dry on the two of them, and it doesn't matter how wet they are.
Shen Cong drove in the direction of the community.
Sitting in the car, Shen Jianyi finally had a chance to ask.
He asked, "Monggong, why are you in such a hurry to go back to the community?"
"Go and take back the things at home." Shen Gong did not hide it, and answered bluntly.
When Shen Jianyi followed him downstairs, he had already thought of the reason, and he was not surprised to hear her say it at this time.
He continued to ask: "This rain will last for a long time?"
"I'm not sure. Many things are completely different from what I have experienced before, and I'm just acting on my feelings. After the insect plague in my
last life, Bei Ning rained 20 times in a row. Although it rained for a few days, although there was no serious disaster in the end, many houses were soaked, and many houses collapsed.
Do you remember the house in our civil servant community, Dad?"
Shen Jianyi glanced at her and said: " How can I not remember the house I lived in for decades? I don't have Alzheimer's."
Shen Cong didn't mind being scolded by his father, but continued: "I remember that the house collapsed when it rained.
Of course, it was mainly because the foundation was shaken during the previous earthquake, and it was carried as soon as it was soaked in water. No longer ."
Shen Jianyi was silent for a while, and said, "But didn't that house fall into the cracks before?"
Shen Cong paused: "So I said that many things are different."
"That shouldn't be the case. It's too dangerous to go at this time!" Shen Jianyi still expressed his disapproval while looking at the gray sky outside the window.
"This rain should not last too long. If it is the same as in the previous life, it will become smaller at most for half an hour, and then stop for a few hours." In the
previous life, the rain did not always fall .
Otherwise, after 20 days, the city of Beining would definitely not exist, and it would have to be submerged under the water.
The rain was heavy and small, and it fell one after another, and the middle actually gave people a chance to breathe.
Shen Cong didn't know what would happen in this life, she hoped to be the same as her previous life.
This at least gives her some time to recover.
Shen Cong didn't know it would rain today.
During this time, her thoughts were all on her husband and her father-in-law's illness, and all she thought about was how to help them adjust their bodies as soon as possible.
So much so that he ignored the rainy season that was on the lips every day.
Maybe everyone has a lazy mentality and will always procrastinate subconsciously.
When the rain suddenly came, she realized that she still had a lot of things to do.
"Let's go back before it's raining completely, and put everything that can be packed into the space first.
If nothing else, put away the things in the basement first.
Don't believe what they say can be protected . rain, and it is also underground.
It was really raining heavily and the ground was soaked, no matter how good the sealing was, it was of no use. "Shen Cong said to his father.
Shen Cong didn't say a word -
who knows what kind of "surprise" this hellish weather will bring them in the future? How long will it last?
Those things at home, It may not be needed for a while, but it is really destroyed. It will not be so easy to buy in the future.
Shen Jianyi looked out the window worriedly and said nothing.
His daughter's words made his heart extremely depressed.
Although she kept saying that The heavy rain did not bring any catastrophic damage to the community, and it passed quickly.
But Shen Jianyi was a little bit unconvinced.
Moreover, her daughter also said that many things have changed in her two lives. If nothing else, at least she once lived There were no one thousand chickens in the community.
How these chickens survive the rainy season is a big problem!
Fortunately, the father and daughter were lucky. Itâs really getting smaller.
Although the sky is still gloomy and cloudy, as if another pouring rain will pour down at any time, I can see the road ahead.
And because of the previous drought, the road was not There was not too much standing water.
Even the electric car drove back to the community smoothly all the way.
When they saw them coming back, the guards of the community were stunned and couldn't understand why they risked It was raining so hard to come back this time?
Shen Cong and the others didn't talk to the guard, they just explained, "Let's go home and have a look, we'll go to the property later", and then hurried back home.
Because they were afraid The two captains, Sun Qing or others rushed over after hearing the news. After the two entered the door, they locked the door from the inside, and then the two went directly to the basement.
The construction level of Lao Zheng who built the house for them was really good.
He swears and promises how tight the basement is, and what kind of heavy rain will not pour back.
From what he sees now, what he said is not a lie.
Opening the door in the dark and walking in, Shen Jianyi checked it carefully, inside and out, and sure enough, he didn't see a single trace of rain infiltrating.
Shen Cong didn't have time to look around like his father.
Wherever she went, no leaf remained.
From furniture to electrical appliances, to all kinds of small objects, she quickly collected the entire basement.
While Shen Jianyi was still checking for signs of water leakage, she even blocked the vent.
The father and daughter didn't stay any longer. After coming out of the basement, they went straight to the third floor.
The third floor is the most precious place in the family at this time, where the old man's herbs are grown.
Because I have tried it before, although living things cannot enter the space, it refers to living animals, not including plants.
So Shen Cong put all those flowers and plants into the space without any scruples.
Then they went to the top floor again.
When the Shen family was designing the top floor, it was different from Fulin.
There were two large flower ponds built there before, and some rhizomes were planted in it, and it was a bit difficult to move.
And here are all vegetable racks, and all the plants are planted in movable containers, so Shen Cong won't be hindered at all when he collects it in the space.
It was only when she was about to finish the collection that she asked: "Dad, we put all these things away, will others think too much? Let others not talk about it, what about Sun Qing? She comes to water every day. of."
"She's not the kind of talkative person, it's alright. I'll go and get the key back later, and say we'll take the vegetables to the city to grow, and she won't talk nonsense outside." Shen Jianyi answered very firmly.
But when he spoke, he sighed deeply in his heart, and looked at the house again and again with nostalgia.
He knew that after they left this time, they might not come back for a long time, and when they came back, he didn't know what the family would be like?
Thinking of this, his heart ached for a while.
Shen Cong understood her father's heart, but she didn't say anything to comfort her.
In fact, her heart was a little more optimistic than Shen's father.
There may be too many things that have passed, and people's hearts will become stronger.
Shen Cong always felt that these disasters were temporary, and they would definitely come back soon.
Staying in Fulin is because if the water rises, there will definitely be more information received in the city, and the higher the floor, the safer.
But the terrain here is high!
Speaking of which, the terrain on this side of the community is a little higher than in the city.
In the past, it was always said that the ground here was the same as the roofs of the dozen-story buildings in the city.
Therefore, Shen Cong felt that nothing would happen to the community.
Although she thought so, after finishing packing, she still ran to the top floor and used the scrap iron in the space to make a big iron cover for the entire top floor.
Nothing else can be done, there is such a cover, at least it is a protection for the solar panel.
Again, it can reduce the possibility of roof seepage.
While Shen Cong was making a protective cover, she was still thinking that she would also make one on the roof of her house when she returned.
It's just that the roof on Fulin's side is too big, so after all of it is done, her metal stock is probably not enough.
Where can I find some more?
When Shen Cong was thinking about these things, Shen Jianyi went to the property first.
Shi Lei wasn't there, he went to the city to run errands.
Lao Cao was checking the chicken shed before, and he hurried over after hearing their father and daughter came back, and his whole body was soaked wet.
Seeing him like this, Shen Jianyi didn't say much, but told him that their family had discussed it and decided to stay in Fulin for a while, so this time I came back to get some things.
Hearing what he said, Lao Cao's first reaction was: "Is the old man seriously ill again?"
"That's not true." Shen Jianyi waved his hand.
"It's just that his body can't be taken care of in a day or two. Someone has to take care of it.
My wife and two girls won't let me go back, so we have to stay there for a longer period of time. Isn't there any way?" Shen Jianyi With a sigh, he explained.
"That's going to take a long time to live, and I have to help the old man adjust his body." Lao Cao repeatedly echoed.
But when he said that, he was still a little nervous in his heart.
He always felt that when the heavy rain just came, the Shen family suddenly rushed back to move in the rain, which was a bit serious.
In the end, he really couldn't hold back, and he asked aloud: "Uncle Shen, tell me the truth, is there something wrong in the city?"
Chapter 105 (1)
"No, don't be fooled." Father Shen waved his hands again and again.
"I just came here to tell you all because I was afraid of your nonsense. No one is an immortal. How long has it been raining, how can the city be notified?"
Cao Hongmin thought about it too. It only takes two or three hours, even if there are any instructions in the city, it cannot be so fast.
It's true that I'm too nervous here.
He couldn't help but also smiled: "Isn't this what made this day a riot, I can't see a little trouble now.
Rain is a good thing, but since the rain started, my heart has become a ball, always I'm worried about what will happen again."
Having said that, Lao Cao sighed: "Don't have anything to do, I can't stand it anymore."
Hearing what he said, Shen Jianyi also sighed.
Isn't that the case, now everyone is frightened, and it's almost like a soldier.
But he still said to Lao Cao: "Be careful. It's not a big mistake. Anyway, the weather is really a problem now. Who knows when this god will turn his face again? Let's think about the front."
He paused when he said this. After a while, I asked: "Is there anything we can do? If you want to tell me quickly, if you want to put on an air, don't be polite.
When my second daughter comes back together, if you can help her, I will definitely help.
Don't When we leave, we can't do anything to make it difficult."
Lao Cao waved his hands again and again: "No, no, don't toss Xiao Shen. There are so many people in the courtyard, why can't you do anything, so she has to work? Over the
chicken farm . Don't worry, we have removed the iron nets that Xiao Shen put on the cornfield before, and they are just right for you.
Those are enough. We can do the job well, so you can rest assured.
Uncle Shen, if you all go back to the city, hurry up and don't stay here. While the weather is fine now. Don't wait to get off again, the road is not easy to walk. "
Knowing that Cao Hongmin was really speaking to him and didn't treat his family as an outsider, Shen Jianyi didn't show any more politeness to him, and after explaining a few more words, he went home.
When he went back, Shen Cong had already packed up the house. Now, she is handing over to Sun Qing.   She is
standing on the side of the car. The back seat of the car is filled with all kinds of precious Chinese herbal medicine potted plants.
Qing stood next to Shen Cong, holding a bunch of keys in her hand.
Shen Jianyi saw that it was the one he gave her before, and could see that this was the little girl who saw them coming back and rushed over to hand over them.
At this moment, Shen Cong did not ask for the key as the father and daughter had discussed before, but pushed the key back to Sun Qing.
She pointed to the yard and said, "You take this key. on. I moved all the things in the house, and locked the useless house, so you don't have to come and water every day in the future. "
Sun Qing held the bunch of keys and looked like she was about to refuse: "Sister, if I don't need to water, then why am I holding the keys at home?" Put away the key, don't put it on me and lose it again. "
"If you want to take it, take it." "
Shen Cong said to her: "I sealed up the rooms on the first floor and the second floor. The rooms on the third floor used to grow vegetables, and there was nothing, so you don't have to avoid suspicion." Just go.
I put the heating stove and fuel at home on the third floor, and the solar power generation system is also on the third floor, so you can come here with electricity. "
In addition," Shen Cong pursed his lips: "In case you need to use the stove one day, you can directly move here and live here. The heating pipes are connected to the house here." "
Sun Qing was frightened by her words.
When she was in Fortune before, Shen Cong had already spoken about the eschatology, and Sun Qing has been living in anxiety since then.
Now, it's still summer, but Shen Cong actually told her about heating...
This made Sun Qing's pores shrink all over her body, and she couldn't help shivering.
Seeing her like this, Shen Cong patted her on the shoulder soothingly: "Don't be afraid, I'm just talking. You know, I'm used to thinking about the worst in everything.
In fact, it's not, anyway . It's okay for you to be a little bit defensive."
Sun Qing nodded again and again, but there was still an unconcealed panic in her eyes.
When the natural disaster just came, Sun Qing was in her freshman year, and she was still under 20.
At that time, he was thin and weak, and he didn't grow up.
Although it has been almost three years since then, because of poor food and heavy labor, the little girl has hardly changed, and she still looks like a child.
Seeing her like this, Shen Cong suddenly felt that it was not very secure to hand over the house to her like this.
It might also cause trouble for the girl.
She thought about it for a while, and then confessed: "If something really happens and we can't make it back, you can give this key to Shi Lei or Lao Cao. Just say what I said, let them see the arrangement, don't resist. ."
Sun Qing nodded quickly and vigorously.
After listening to her daughter's explanation, Shen Jianyi didn't say a word, but pushed the door and went back to the courtyard.
He naturally heard what his daughter meant, that is, this house can be taken out for everyone to share at a critical time.
As the owner of the house, he was naturally unhappy.
But Shen Jianyi also understood that her daughter's statement must be a helpless move in the end.
If a catastrophe is really coming, unless the family returns to the community to live in, the house cannot be kept by Sun Qing.
And if there is really a big flood and a catastrophe comes, then the whole family has to live together, and they can't be separated because of a house.
Now the daughter, son-in-law, and even the in-laws have their roots in the city. In any way, they can only go to their daughter, and it is impossible for the daughter and son-in-law to return to the community.
If a trade-off must be made, the only thing to be abandoned is this villa.
Although Shen Jianyi felt that he could figure it out, he still felt very uncomfortable.
After all, this is also the foundation, the home, the place where he originally wanted to spend the rest of his life.
He didn't want to listen to his daughter and others explaining those things, every sentence seemed to stab his heart with a needle.
He went in again.
After entering, Shen Jianyi couldn't help squinting.
He just went out for a while, and the family changed a lot!
It became... that he was a little shocked, and also a little bit ironic.
Shen Cong removed all the iron nets that had been covering the roof before, and even removed the iron shelves that could not be taken away, and replaced it with a large iron roof that covered the entire house.
He saw this iron roof from far away, like a semi-circular tortoise shell, just covering the house.
When my daughter did this, she didn't avoid people, and it made a lot of noise. It was so big that people were watching outside all the time, and it was hard not to pay attention.
What Shen Jianyi didn't expect was that in addition to the iron roof, Shen Cong also wrapped all the rooms on the first and second floors.
She used thick iron plates to seal the doors and windows tightly, not to mention, she even pulled a dense iron net outside.
Unless the iron plate is completely destroyed with a cutting machine, it is difficult for anyone to enter the house.
But Shen Cong didn't do anything, she built an iron ladder outside the iron mesh.
The ladder is very sturdy, and the partitions on each floor are quite wide. Even if they are not big and small, ordinary people or even the elderly and children, it is not difficult to go up and down the stairs along the ladder.
The ladder goes straight to the third floor.
Shen Jianyi climbed up the ladder.
Shen Cong did not wrap up the third floor and above.
Just like what she told Sun Qing, she brought up the heating stove that was placed in the kitchen before.
Because there were many people in the family before, the stove was a large one.
In addition to cooking, normal heating can guarantee at least 60 square meters of heating.
The third floor was originally designed to grow vegetables, so radiators were installed in each room.
After connecting this stove, several rooms next to it will become warm.
In addition to the stove, Shen Cong also placed a sack of biofuel with an open mouth in the corner.
The fuel was inadvertently sitting in the corner, looking like it was left over from the house.
But in fact Shen Jianyi knew that this was a new bag opened by his daughter.
And he also put the half bag left at home, so it looks so bulging.
Shen Jianyi calculated, with these fuels and a stove, even if it was burning twenty-four hours a day, it would be guaranteed to burn for at least ten days.
If you are more careful, it can last longer.
Daughter, this is leaving the last way to survive for the people in the community!
She was afraid that if the extreme cold came, people would be completely unprepared.
By then, having these fuels and stoves will at least give people a transition period and make people's lives a little bit easier.
Seeing these configurations, Shen Jianyi's anxiety gradually subsided because he might not be able to keep the house.
He felt that his daughter had been very thoughtful, and she was doing her best to protect the family.
As long as the social order does not completely collapse, and as long as the people in the community are not on the verge of death, no one would come to their house to destroy it with wickedness.
If nothing else, just because they have four superhumans in their family and an old man Gu who is very prestigious in front of the big leaders, those people have to weigh them before they do anything.
What's more, isn't Wei Yan also the leader of the working group?
He is still very prestigious in the community.
For these reasons, the house at home will not fail to keep.
And the solar energy, stove and fuel left by my daughter can save everyone's life at a critical time.
If you think about it, it will also make the people in the courtyard remember a little better at home.
Although they don't care about the good things that others remember, at least if someone does something bad, there should be someone who will stop them because of this good thing, right?
Of course, these were the worst plans, and Shen Jianyi always felt that he couldn't get to that point.
If the world really goes to such a dangerous place, it shouldn't matter whether the house is kept or not.
When Shen Jianyi came out of the house, Shen Cong and Sun Qing had almost explained.
Seeing that there was nothing else on their car except green plants, Sun Qing asked worriedly: "Uncle, Sister Cong Cong, did you bring some thick clothes? Could it be that the car can't be put down? Otherwise, we will wait for the rain tomorrow. Stop and I'll send it to you?"
"No, I have prepared thick clothes over there, and I have brought all that my parents could bring when they went there. You don't have to give us anything, and you can't either, I've sealed the house." Shen Cong quickly stopped him.   Then she stretched out her hand and poked Sun Qing's forehead a little worriedly, and said, "You don't remember what I said just now? Don't go out recently! Don't go anywhere.   Didn't you say it just now, there are still some at home. Save food, as long as you have one bite to eat, don't move the nest.
Also, what did I just say to you? "
I'm going to move things upstairs when I go back today, and I'll live on the third floor." He also put the stove and food on it. When the rain stops, I will go pick up firewood. I'll recharge when I have time. I will also go to Lao Cao and tell them to start storing electricity. Sister, I remembered everything, don't worry. "
Sun Qing hurriedly repeated everything Shen Cong explained as if he was endorsing it. After
saying goodbye to Sun Qing, the father and daughter began to return to the city.
It was almost five o'clock in the afternoon. At the
beginning, everything went smoothly on the road.
Because it had been dry for too long before, the land was cracked with big holes and small cracks.
Although there was a heavy rainstorm just now, the rainwater was quickly absorbed by the land.
Not to mention standing water, even You can't even see a small puddle.
If it wasn't for the fact that the land looked damp and the air was filled with water vapor, it would make people a little suspicious. Did it rain just now?
But not long after they passed Qingshan Town, the rain stopped It started to fall again.
And it got bigger and bigger.
Clouds gathered in the sky again, and the thunder exploded again. The
lightning seemed to be splitting from the sky towards people, and it felt like it was splitting through the glass of the car. He was right in front of him.
He was so nervous that he was dying.
"Shall I drive? "Father Shen said worriedly.
It stands to reason that we shouldn't continue to travel at this time. The best way is to find a safe place to avoid it. But no one
will mention this.
Because the father and daughter are both I don't know when the rain will fall?
How big can it be? What I
can do at this time is to compete with the heavy rain and try my best to get back as soon as possible.
"No, I'll open it." Shen Cong stared straight ahead, not even daring to turn his head.
Her hand on the steering wheel was subconsciously tight because of her tension, but overall, her hand was steady.
The rain is getting heavier and heavier, and gradually the outside of the car window has become pitch black, and the only light source other than the headlights is the lightning that fell straight down that day.
The two of them didn't say a word again, and they were all so nervous that their breathing became suppressed.
The only thing that is fortunate at this time is that the drought has been too long before, even if the rain is so heavy, but generally speaking, there is no water on the road.
Even if there is a little bit of standing water occasionally, it will be absorbed by the land within a few minutes.
So at least they don't have to worry about the possibility of the car being flooded along the way.
Because the rain was getting heavier and the road conditions were not good, the car could not drive fast, so it was already midnight by the time they returned to the community.
The entire four buildings of Fulin were pitch-dark, and only a faint light leaked from the windows of the house.
Shen Cong and Father Shen knew that none of the family members had slept and were waiting for their return.
Because it was too late and it was raining again, there was not even a shadow of a person outside, so Shen Cong didn't have any more scruples, just put all the things in the car into the space, and went home with his father empty-handed.
Sure enough, no one in the family slept.
The lord didn't say anything, Tong Tong and Shan Shan were so sleepy that they stumbled, they tried their best to keep their eyes open, sat down on the sofa and waited for them with the lord.
Seeing the two of them come in all covered in water, Shan Shanxian cheers happily.
"Shh!" Tong Tong gestured towards his sister, then ran to the bathroom like a little adult, took out two towels, and handed them to his grandfather and aunt.
"Thank you baby, but give it to grandpa, auntie is going to take a bath." Shen Cong rubbed his nephew's head and said.
Gu Kai didn't say a word and went straight to the second floor.
When Shen Cong went up, the change of clothes had already been taken to the bathroom and put away.
At this time, Shen Cong was tired and tired, and his body was still sticky and uncomfortable.
She didn't even have the energy to say anything to her husband, she just took his hand, signaled that she was okay, and went straight to the bathroom.
When she came out, Gu Kai was already waiting at the door with a hairdryer.
Shen Cong slumped on the chair as if his bones had been pulled out.
After being served by her husband, she applied cream, dried her hair, and then leaned on him and didn't want to move.
Gu Kai let his wife entangle him like an octopus, and kissed her on the top of her head in distress, and then whispered: "You go to sleep first, what else can we talk about tomorrow?"
Shen Cong leaned on Gu Kai's arms , I just feel that the upper and lower eyelids are sticking together, and I really don't want to move.
It's almost night now, and she's been busy for twelve hours since she left home at around twelve noon until now.
She is really tired.
But even so, Shen Cong knew that now was not the time to rest.
She rubbed her head hard in Gu Kai's arms, and then said in a sullen voice, "Let's go down and talk, tomorrow will be better."
After that, she stood up.
Gu Kai knew that his wife was right. The rain outside seemed to be in a hurry. It had been raining for several hours, and there was no sign of it stopping.
At this time, many things have to be said in advance, and what should be done must be done in advance.
In addition, how to say some things to the outside world, the whole family has to unify the caliber.
When they went down, Father Shen had already taken a shower and changed his clothes.
Although Shen Cong was driving all the way, Father Shen was a few decades old after all, and he was exhausted by this trip.
Sitting on the sofa at the moment, his face is very tired.
On the coffee table in front of him, there was a bowl of steaming noodles with a fried golden egg nestled on top.
Seeing Shen Cong coming down, Cheng Ru hurriedly said: "There are also for you, you sit first, and I will serve it for you."
Shen Cong waved his hand: "Mom, don't serve it, I can't eat a single bite at the moment. Cheng Ru stood at the door of
the kitchen, looking at her disapprovingly.
Shen Cong was helpless and had to say: "Take a small bite, I really can't eat it."
After that, she raised her hand: "My hand is still shaking right now."
Seeing her like this, Cheng Ru felt even more distressed.
She didn't say a word and went straight into the kitchen.
Because it was too late, Shen Cong didn't talk nonsense with everyone, and said directly: "I brought back everything in the community, except for a stove and a pack of fuel, not even a bench.
The basement . I also sealed the entrance of the house with thick iron plates, and piled up the waste soil that existed in the space before.
Unless someone knows the place in advance, it will not be found at all.
In addition, I put the whole house on the first and second floors of the house. It was wrapped with barbed wire, and the top floor was sealed. Not to mention ordinary people, even thieves who want to enter our house have to bring professional tools.
So, Mom, sister, you don't have to worry about that, no matter what we do When I go back, I can guarantee that the house will be handed over to you safely."
After listening to the second daughter's words, and thinking about what I saw before, I didn't think at the time, but now Shen Jianyi suddenly wants to laugh.
I just feel that the little girl is worried about her own family.
He couldn't help but jokingly said, "Well, she can guarantee that the house will be handed over to you when she goes back, and it will not work for any of us."
"What do you mean?"
Shen Xi was also shocked by what her sister said. She never thought that her father and sister went out to do such a big thing!
Now listening to my father say this again, my mind can't turn around for a while.
"You'll know when you go back and see." Shen Jianyi smiled.
He said and gestured: "You haven't seen it, she wrapped such a big iron shell for our whole family!
I went to the property, and I was shocked when I came back!
Do you know what kind of barbed wire used to be?
She This time, in addition to the iron shell, I also wrapped barbed wire, and then I even wrapped a layer of thick iron inside the net! Three layers!
Anyway, unless she can open it, even if I want to go back, I can't get in. ."
In order to show how great the second daughter did, Shen Jianyi's hand drew a big circle in the air, and everyone in the room was a little stunned.
Everyone can't imagine for a while, what is the so-called iron shell?
What kind of home is wrapped under three layers of iron.
"I suddenly wanted to go back and have a look." Shen Xi murmured.
"What are you looking at, it's raining so hard, you can't be fooling around! Your sister scared me to death today!"
Cheng Ru came out with noodles, and when she heard this sentence, she immediately glared at her eldest daughter.
Shen Congzheng was a little embarrassed to be stared at by his family. Hearing what her sister said, she quickly answered: "It's okay, you can see it tomorrow, and I will seal the balcony on the top floor tomorrow."Â Â Â "
Is the top floor still sealed?"
Speaking out, he immediately attracted the attention of the whole family.
"I brought back all the vegetables at home and my father's medicine. If the top floor is not sealed, I can't put it down!" Shen Cong was also a little helpless.
"Maybe you don't need to grow so many vegetables." Gu Kai said thoughtfully.
The whole family looked at him again.
"You forgot my ability?" Gu Kai smiled helplessly.
"As long as I'm at home, my family will never be short of vegetables or food, so there's no need to invest too much energy in growing vegetables.
I won't talk about my dad's medicines. I haven't tried them yet, so I don't know. Will there be any changes in the medicinal properties of the ripened medicinal materials?
But whether it is vegetables or grains, I have tried many times before, and there is no difference between the ripened medicinal materials and the normal ripening ones.
Therefore, it can be appropriately reduced at home . The proportion of vegetables grown."
Gu Kai's words made everyone in the family silent.
To be honest, if he didn't remind him and others didn't tell him, even Shen Cong would have ignored the usefulness of his abilities to his family.
After all, since Gu Kai's ability appeared until now, it was mostly used to help the country, as well as the breeding and seedling promotion of various government bases.
So much so that people don't think of him at all when they think about their future life.
It wasn't until Gu Kai said it himself that everyone realized that there was such a useful weapon beside them!
"We can grow less vegetables at home, but we still have to grow vegetables on the top floor. It's not just for our own home, don't forget that the top floor is also a test base for the regiment."
Shen Cong took the lead in reacting and reminded .
"Yes, you're right." Old Man
Gu, who had been sitting beside him and said nothing, interjected: "If it's really just our own family, I think the food we have saved before will be enough for us to eat for many years. It doesn't matter. But you
reminded me that the top floor is the test base of our group, and the data it needs to provide is for reference in the future large-scale development of top-level agriculture in the city.
This is an important matter, but it cannot be ignored. "
Xiao Kai didn't say that we shouldn't grow vegetables on the top floor. He just suggested that we reduce the proportion of vegetables grown in our own homes."
Doesn't he feel bad for me as a father-in-law, he doesn't want me to work too hard!
I grow all the vegetables in our family, except for my son-in-law who is distressed and distressed for me, who has said that?
Xiaokai, don't listen to your father, you will ripen all the vegetables I planted tomorrow, and then I won't worry about them. "
Seeing that my in-laws taught their son-in-law with a stern face, Shen Jianyi quit, and immediately became a mess in the middle, and everyone laughed.
Apart from talking about the house and the vegetables that were brought back, Shen Cong and the others talked about it again. I checked the caliber, and discussed how if Zhou Ying and the others asked tomorrow, how to explain the matter of getting the Chinese herbal medicine back to them.
After all, Zhou Ying and his wife already knew about Shen Cong and the others returning to the community, and they asked several times in the middle. It's thinking.
Because I slept too late the night before, and I was really tired, the whole family got along very well the next morning, and no one woke Shen Cong up.
So she woke up naturally after she slept. It was almost eleven o'clock in the morning.
"Why didn't any of you call me! she complained, rubbing her eyes
. Sleep as long as you can. "Gu Kai replied with a smile.
"It's all right, I dream of moving. In the morning, the bells are ringing at home, what are you doing? "
"Pick up the two balconies." "
Hearing her husband said this, Shen Cong immediately got up from the bed, without changing her pajamas, she dragged her slippers and went to the balcony.
She knew that the balcony mentioned by her husband was the two on the second floor.
Fulin's duplex has a total of three The balcony on the first floor is connected with the living room, and the balcony on the second floor is separate, one in the north and south, facing each other.
The balcony on the south side is very large, about 16 square meters, it is rectangular, and there is a ladder on the wall that leads directly to the top floor.
The balcony on the north is the living balcony, with nine squares, it is square, two sides are against the wall, and two sides are railings.
Before this balcony, Shen Cong and the others had completely sealed it. Like the balcony on the first floor, it used double-layer explosion-proof glass.
Because this balcony is not very sunny, it has been used as a utility room before, and there are some less commonly used bits and pieces.
And now those things have been picked up by the family, the whole balcony is empty, and it is very clean.
"Why don't you wait for me to get up and clean up? It's so troublesome to move so many pieces. If you want me to fix it, it will be finished in ten minutes." Shen Cong complained.
"Let's fix it, you've lost all your space, and you won't be able to classify it properly.
Then we'll look for something else, you don't know where you put it, and we can't find it in a hurry!"
Cheng Ru heard her daughter's complaint, and immediately did not Angrily, he turned back.
Shen Cong rubbed his nose and didn't dare to say another word.
She tugged at her husband and asked him to go to another balcony with her.
The balcony was not sealed before, but a sunshade was added on top of the position next to the door.
First, it is necessary to go back and forth on the roof, which is inconvenient to seal, and then there is the need to grow vegetables here, and the ventilation is not guaranteed.
And this time Shen Cong went in again, and found that he had only worked hard in the morning, and this place had also changed.
The iron shelves, flower pots, and vegetable baskets that they had placed along the walls before were brought to the center of the balcony, and the edges and corners were vacated.
"We discussed it in the morning. Dads mean that the top floor will not be moved for the time being, and the balcony should be sealed. It will be protected from the rain, and then from the cold."
Gu Kai pointed to the location of the stairs: "Leave a passable opening here, which can also be used as a vent. Except here, all other places are sealed."
Shen Cong nodded, she had planned the same before.
With the help of his family, Shen Cong sealed the balcony very quickly. It only took more than half an hour to seal the entire balcony.
It's just that there is a big problem with such a closed balcony, that is, it blocks out all the light. If you want to plant here, you can only rely on fill lights.
But things are always multi-faceted, and it is impossible to cover everything.
Just looking at the unstoppable rain outside, everyone felt that such a choice was correct.
Before the rainy season, Shen Cong and Shi Chen had already built several tin houses on the top floor, and they had also moved the vegetables they planted in.
So don't worry too much right now.
It was raining heavily outside, and no one could go out.
So suddenly, everyone seemed to have nothing to do.
In fact, everyone didn't go out every day before. In such a big sun, when you go out, you sweat all over, and you don't even want to go downstairs unless you have to.
But no one seemed to be bored at the time.
But now, I really can't get out. With such a big family sitting in the house, I suddenly feel that the house is a little cramped, and it's boring to do anything.
Shen Cong simply took out all the vegetables, flowers and plants recovered from the community and found some work for the family.
The old man's flowers and plants were sent to the second floor, and both balconies were stuffed with his things.
Old Man Gu, who was a little weak before, saw his long-lost baby, and his spirit was much better all of a sudden.
He didn't even need someone to help him, and he lingered among the flower stands, his face full of satisfaction and joy.
Father Shen's vegetables were a little troublesome.
Because there are so many of them!
Think about it, how big is the ground of the villa, in addition to the top floor, there are three and a half floors, and a large piece of land like the backyard...
Those places were all fully utilized before.
If all these things are taken out, then the house will not be able to treat people, and all the ground will not be able to be put down.
In desperation, Gu Kai had to propose again to ripen those vegetables.
This time it was rejected by Shen Cong.
"I can't choose to ripen at home. I have to wait for the rain to stop and go to the top floor. Otherwise, the house will be dirty and messy, and we have
to clean it up. There is no sun, so where do I dry my laundry?"
" Yes, I'm not in a hurry to eat, so what are you urging them to do? Let Gonggong put away first, and talk about it when you need it." Cheng Ru was the first to express his approval.
In the end, at the strong request of Shen Jianyi, Shen Cong just took out two small vegetable racks and placed them on the balcony on the first floor, so that he would not have nothing to do.
In the afternoon, it rained heavier.
The land that was dry to the extreme could not withstand such a heavy rain, and the ground slowly began to accumulate water.
It started to rain at more than six o'clock the night before, and it has been raining until now. Seeing that more than ten hours have passed, the rain has been heavy and small, but it has not stopped.
In the morning, the family was still in the mood to talk and laugh, build a tin house, and argue for a peddler.
But in the afternoon, everyone lost their leisure time, and everyone began to feel a little nervous.
"When will Shi Chen and Cancan come back?" Cheng Ru asked worriedly.
"They are following the working group, so they should be fine." Shen Cong persuaded.
"It's troublesome to follow the working group, don't think I don't know, those working groups in your regiment are built everywhere. If they are in the urban area, it's fine, if they are in the mountains? This rain will not cause flash floods, right? ?" Cheng Ru said.
As soon as she said these words, she was stunned for a moment, and then hurriedly said "bah-bah" to the side, and said quickly: "I'm talking nonsense, bad spirits, good spirits, they will be fine!"
But such a remedy was obviously useless, and everyone's face became solemn.
Shi Chen and Cancan are really not necessarily on the mountain.
Their greatest possibility is around Bac Ninh City.
Wei Yan and Jiashu are most likely to be in the mountains, especially Jiashu.
When he came back on New Year's Day last time, he personally said that he was now digging a well in a mountain village.
With such a heavy rain, I don't know if the well drilling team he is in has gone down the mountain?
And Wei Yan...
The reason why Qingshan Town is called this name is because there are several mountains around it.
Although the crust has changed, it has long been that a mountain is not a mountain, and a slope is not a slope.
But in fact, some mountain villages are still preserved, and some, like Yingshui Village, have inexplicably turned into mountain villages.
What are these places like now?
Wei Yan, have they returned to the community?
You can't think about these things, the more you think about them, the more nervous you become.
But now in this situation, there is not even a phone call, and it is completely useless to know anything about the situation.
Just as the whole family was standing on the balcony, looking out through various windows, and all fell into contemplation, the iron door outside was suddenly knocked heavily.
It's raining so hard, who is coming?
The whole family turned their heads in unison.
"Who is it?" Tong Tong shouted and ran out first.
Gu Kai quickly followed.
Shen Jianyi, who was standing outside, also followed.
Soon, a familiar voice came from outside.
"The family tree is back!" Shen Xi was the first to hear it.
The voice fell, and a few people outside walked back together with the family tree.
"Where did you come from? A group of us stared downstairs and didn't see you." Shen Cong asked with a smile.
"I sneaked over here, you can't see it from upstairs! Sister-in-law, you don't know how big it is outside! The rain hit me and it hurt.
I ran in from outside, just a little way, It feels like being beaten up."
Jiashu said, and stretched out his arm to show everyone: "Look at me, my arm has been beaten red!"
"Oh, what are you looking at, hurry up and change it. Take a bath! I'll catch a cold later." Cheng Ru pushed the tree into the bathroom in distress.
While pushing, he said, "It's still time for you to come back. If it's a little later, there may not be hot water in the water heater upstairs. In
this weather, solar energy won't work."
Jiashu obediently went to take a bath, and the family His eyes fell back out of the window again.
Although I don't know why Jiashu came back at this time, it's a good thing to come back safely!
It finally makes people worry less.
But because of his return, everyone is more concerned about the other family members who have not returned.
"I don't know if those little soldiers will come back to live here tonight? If they come back, they can ask them.
Even if they don't know, they can ask them to ask Liu Tuan." Shen Xi looked outside The rain curtain, said softly.
"With such a heavy rain, Liu Tuan and the others are not necessarily still at the regiment headquarters. In this case, they should do flood control work, right?" Shen Cong whispered.
Her voice was low, but everyone heard it.
Gu Kai's hand slowly clenched into a fist.
Shen Cong gave him a warning look.
Gu Kai smiled and said helplessly, "Don't worry, I have my senses."
Chapter 105 (2)
"I'm afraid you have no sense!" Shen Cong reminded unceremoniously.
It's not that she doesn't want to contribute to the public, it's just that people have to be self-aware.
Under such weather, no matter which one of their families has supernatural abilities or not, the most correct thing they can do is to ensure their own safety and not cause trouble to the country.
Especially Gu Kai, the skin on his arm hasn't fully grown, what else can he do other than increase the possibility of infection when he goes out at this time?
If it is really infected, it will not cause trouble!
Jiashu quickly came out of the shower.
The whole family gathered around.
"Where did you come from? What's going on outside?" Old Man Gu asked first.
"I came back from Qianshan. As soon as the first rain stopped yesterday, our captain led us to evacuate.
The government had previously issued a notice to pay attention to flood control, so we stopped work immediately when it rained.
Alas, said Our captain is so wise, fortunately we evacuate quickly, otherwise we might end up on the mountain again this time."
Jiashu sighed with joy.
"Is there a flood on the mountain?" The old man asked nervously.
"That's not so, the river has stopped flowing, so there will be water wherever it rains!" Jiashu waved his hands again and again.
"It's just that the road is broken. The road on the mountain was not built seriously, and the previous road has long since collapsed.
When it rains, the road becomes muddy, and we can't walk, let alone transport us. If we donât leave sooner, the
machine will definitely get stuck in the mud and canât be pulled out, and wonât we leave us in the mountains then?â
Jiashu explained with gestures, expressing his happiness in his heart.
The whole family also breathed a sigh of relief.
The road is not easy to walk, it's nothing, as long as nothing else happens.
Chapter 106 (1)
It was raining all the time, with no sign of stopping.
In the evening, Zhou Ying and his wife came knocking on the door.
As soon as she entered the door, Zhou Ying said apologetically, "Uncle and auntie, I'm sorry to disturb you so late." The
Shen family had a good impression of these two couples, and Cheng Ru immediately let them in, and complained, "Zhou Ying, let's We haven't known each other for a day or two. Why are you always so polite?   We
used to live door to door, but now we're still door to door. What kind of fate is this?
Say, didn't you walk around very often before? Why didn't you even come to the door when Auntie came?"
These grumbling and nagging words were full of intimacy, which relieved Zhou Ying's little embarrassment. a lot.
She quickly replied: "No, Auntie, it's not that I don't come, it's mainly because the family is busy, so we can't make trouble."
Shen Cong knew that the two of them didn't come because they understood.
The people in my own house are too crowded just to sit still, and it is inconvenient for outsiders to come in and out.
But how does Zhou Ying explain this?
She hurriedly walked over and asked, "Zhou Ying, are you coming here for something?" When
she interrupted, Cheng Ru realized that she was talking too much, and they didn't even have time to talk about the main topic.
She quickly pointed to the seat vacated by Shenxi and said, "You sit, I'll go and pour some water for you."
"No need, auntie, we're not thirsty, so don't be busy. Just a few words, and we'll leave after that, Xiaoyu. I'm at home!" Zhou Ying said quickly.
At this time, Liu Xiaofeng, who had been following behind him, finally spoke up.
He said, "Xiao Shen, do we have to find a way to contact Shi Chen and Cancan? They haven't come back for a long time.
It's been raining all the time, and the two children can't stay at home outside. It's not a problem, right? "
Although they and the Shichen brothers and sisters are just tenants and landlords, but after getting along for so long, they naturally have feelings.
Especially Cancan, before the supernatural powers appeared, when Shichen was not at home, it was Zhou Ying and Liu Xiaofeng. Take care, both of them like this child as if they were their own children. Although they know they   are
working in the government, but seeing the rain getting heavier and more likely to cause disaster, the couple still can't sit still.
Thinking about it, let's see if anyone next door comes back tonight. If anyone comes back, let's go over and ask about the current situation outside.
If only we could ask where the two children are, even if we pick them up, we'll know the place anyway. "Shen Cong said.
Liu Xiaofeng sighed: "They won't necessarily come back. I went out to look just now, and there was no one on the road outside, but there were still military vehicles driving past from time to time, and it looked like they were all heading to the Beicheng interchange. I don't know if there is water coming out of the city from time to time? "
The water is not enough. When my dad and I went back to the city yesterday, I took a look at it. The water in the river is still very shallow, and the water can't rise so fast in one day and one night." "
"That's to raise the dam?" "
"It is possible. "
It hasn't rained for almost three years, and there was such a big earthquake
before. Whether the previous dam was damaged or not, and how long it will last, no one can say.
But if the soldiers have all gone to fight the flood, then I want to ask tonight. It will be difficult to see the whereabouts of the Chen brothers and sisters when they leave.
"Tonight we will wait and see what's going on. There are not many soldiers in our city. If there is really a big problem, the government must let the citizens participate in the disaster relief.
If there is no notification, it means that the problem is not big. In this case, I will go to the regimental headquarters tomorrow morning to find someone to ask. "
"If you need help, you must speak, and I can go with you." "Liu Xiaofeng said quickly.
Shen Cong nodded and sent the two out.
"When I came back, I also saw a lot of soldiers outside the city, and it didn't seem like they were going to build a dam.
They were all near the Beicheng interchange, which was still far from Qianjiang.
I think they should gather there and transfer them in batches. The people from the gathering points outside the city.
The north city is low, and if it is really flooded, it will definitely be the first to be flooded. There should be four or five gathering points there. I heard that there are thousands of people in the big gathering points."
"That's several . 10,000 people! It's really a pain to move in such a heavy rain, and where can it be moved?" Shen Jianyi sighed a little worriedly.
"The gymnasium, the newly built library, the supermarket that hasn't collapsed... Arrange it wherever the terrain is high." Shen Cong replied.
The whole family was talking about how much these people had to suffer when they moved in heavy rain, and about what other place in the city could handle so many people.
Many of those large venues were collapsed during the earthquake, and the ones that remained were not open to the public for a long time.
It's hard to say what's in there, but the supporting facilities are definitely not easy to use.
Shen Cong participated in the conversation at home one after another, but his mind had already run away.
The government has already started to transfer personnel. Does that mean that the dam is about to fail?
Orâpreparing for a flood?
Has the water level risen this far?
Bac Ninh is said to be a northern city, but its geographical location is very good. Qianjiang, the second largest river in the country, flows not far from the city.
This is also the reason why even if it has not rained for nearly three years, the small rivers in the suburbs have not completely stopped flowing, and the waterwheels in the city have not stopped supplying.
During a severe drought, the water in Qianjiang can save lives, but after a heavy rain, it is normal to say that this water can kill people.
Especially the dam after the earthquake, I wonder if it will be shaken into a sieve?
Because there were things in mind, the whole family didn't sleep well that night, so that when the whistle sounded suddenly from downstairs in the morning, almost everyone woke up immediately.
Because the window of the bedroom could not see downstairs, the whole family squeezed to the balcony on the first floor again, and then saw an emergency light lit downstairs in the rain and fog, and there were several soldiers wearing raincoats standing under the light.
People have already run down from the building one after another, they should be asking questions.
"I'll take a look!" Jiashu said first.
"I'll go too." Gu Kai said and went to get his raincoat.
Shen Cong didn't stop him, no one could stay in the house in this situation, so except for Mother Shen and the old man who stayed to watch the child who hadn't woken up, everyone else ran down.
It rained outside overnight.
When I was staying at home, I didn't really feel that deep, I just felt big.
But I really understood what Jiashu said yesterday when I went out - it really hurts when I hit my body.
The rain is no longer pouring, and it feels like a big hole in the sky, and the water of the Tianhe is rushing down.
All the people seemed to be standing directly under the giant waterfall, and the rain made people unable to walk steadily.
The raincoat was almost the same as if she was not wearing it, and before she walked to the soldier, Shen Cong felt that the clothes on his chest and back were tightly clinging to him.
"...for half an hour, the residents below the third floor packed up their luggage and left with the team, and all went to the city sports center for temporary shelter. All the laborers came here to sign up, and now there is a shortage of people on the dam, in order to protect our own home, everyone went out Do your part!
Others don't need to go, they all stay at home, don't go out unless necessary, and don't put more pressure on the government!"
Shen Cong squeezed into the crowd and heard these words intermittently.
The rain was so heavy that those who were in it were terrified from the bottom of their hearts.
When she and her father came back yesterday, there was still no water in the community, but now the water has no legs.
Hearing that the government wants to evacuate the people on the lower floors, whether they are below the third floor or not, no one raised any doubts.
Many people ran back quickly, they should go back to pack their things.
Some people have already approached another soldier with outstretched arms and whistling, and they should have signed up in the past.
"Uncle, I'm going to sign up." Jiashu said and ran over there.
"I'll go too." As soon as Gu Kai spoke, Shen Cong grabbed him.
"I'm going, you're going back!"
"Monggong!"
"You go back! Are you going to cripple your entire arm?!" Shen Cong scolded loudly.
Her voice was loud, but no matter how loud it was, she couldn't hear it clearly in such a sound of rain.
But the anger in her eyes was so clear that people couldn't ignore it at all.
Shen Jianyi also grabbed Gu Kai and said, "Go back! You said you don't want to cause trouble to the government. What can you do? Can you carry the bag or go into the river? Hurry
up and go home!" It's not euphemistic, and I don't even think about whether my son-in-law will feel uncomfortable listening to it.
Shen Cong saw his father and sister holding Gu Kai one by one. After knowing that this person would have nothing to do with his temper again, he stopped paying attention to him and went directly to the registration office.
Seeing her, the soldier in charge frowned and explained patiently again: "For the time being, we only need full labor. Those jobs are too heavy for lesbians to do. You go back first, and we will notify you if you need it.
" It's an ability person." Shen Cong didn't talk nonsense with him: "Do you know where Liu Tuan is, I'm going to find him."
Hearing the three words of ability person, the soldier's eyes suddenly lit up, because of fatigue and long hours The complexion that looked a little blue and white from the rain made her look much better.
He immediately pointed to the front row, motioned Shen Cong to go over, and explained, "We are from the public service team, responsible for the security of the urban area and the placement of personnel.
Liu Tuan should be on the other side of the dam, if you ask Liu Tuan, you can Follow Xiao Li and the others, they are going to the dam now."
Shen Cong nodded.
The soldier immediately confessed to the person next to him.
Jiashu stood beside Shen Cong and got into the same car as her.
The total labor force of the entire Fulin Community is only about 20 people, so the gathering was very fast, and the car drove out of the community in less than half an hour.
Because of the previous anger with Gu Kaisheng, Shen Cong sat in the car with a stern face and did not look out of the car, but out of the corner of her eyes she still saw her husband and family members all standing on the side of the road, watching the car. Didn't even go upstairs.
until it disappeared from view.
Knowing Shen Cong's special identity, the soldier named Xiao Li naturally had to report to his superiors.
So not long after getting in the car, someone walked up to her and said to her, "Comrade Shen Cong, Liu Tuan asked you to go to the province to report immediately! The car is already waiting outside."
After speaking, he pointed out the window.
Only then did Shen Cong realize that the car had stopped, and beside the military vehicle, a three-wheeled vehicle still had its police lights on.
Because the rain was heavy, the visibility was low, and the windows were full of fog, she didn't see it at all before.
Shen Cong didn't ask more, she got out of the car directly.
Immediately I felt itâthe rain was heavier.
It turned out to be Xiao Liang who drove off the three wheels. Seeing that Xiao Liang wiped the rain off her face, she said apologetically, "Sister Shen, I'm sorry, there is no car."
Shen Cong waved her hand and jumped directly to the car that was off the three wheels. Dou, motioning for him to drive immediately.
It was not until the car started again that Shen Cong had the energy to look around, and she found that this road leads to the north of the city.
The provincial map they were going to at this time was the opposite of the direction the car was driving before.
One can imagine the pain of sitting in such a car as the tricycle moves forward in the rainstorm.
Now it's not a question of whether the clothes are soaked or not, Shen Cong felt that he was being beaten all the way.
She curled up her entire upper body and protected her face on her knees, but even so, the top of her head and her neck were still smashed to the point of pain, which was really unbearable.
But no matter how hard it is, can there be a trabeculae driving next to it?
The rain hit his face, he couldn't open his eyes, and he didn't even wear a raincoat, but he didn't hear him screaming in pain.
When talking to Shen Cong, his voice was still so hearty.
After driving for more than an hour, the car drove to the vicinity of the provincial map.
Because when the provincial plan was originally designed, there was a large sunken square. At this time, the square became a big puddle for water storage.
Motorcycles definitely won't get in.
Xiao Liang parked the car outside the square, then jumped out of the car and said to Shen Cong, "Sister Shen, shall I take you there?"
Shen Cong wiped the rain off his face and looked in.
Although no one could be seen in the huge square, there was still light shining through the building of the library in the distance.
She looked at Xiaoliang: "Do you have other tasks besides sending me back?"
Xiaoliang paused, then nodded: "I'm going to Qianjiang Dam. But Sister Shen, I can take you in. Yes , don't rush for a few minutes."
"Hurry up and go! What else do you need to bring along at this point? I haven't been here before?" Shen Cong waved at him.
"Shall I send you?" Xiao Liang was still a little worried.
"Hurry up, hurry up!" Shen Cong made an impatient look.
After all, he ignored him and walked directly towards the square.
The Provincial Library was also a landmark building in Bac Ninh before, and it was the pride of Bac Ninh when it was first built.
At that time, even Shen Cong, a person who studied design, thought that its design was really too beautiful.
But at this moment... She only felt that the person who designed it at the beginning was simply brain-twitching!
Why do you design a sunken square and make it so big?
How nice of you to fill it in directly!
Walking down the steps step by step, the closer she got to the dark pool, the more nervous Shen Cong became. After her sandal-wearing feet poked in, even though she was mentally prepared, she froze and hissed.
Looking around, I saw that there was no one, and even though it was almost eight in the morning, there was still no one on the opposite side.
So Shen Cong quickly retracted his feet, took out the long boots from the space and put them in.
She didn't change the raincoat on her body, it was already soaked wet anyway, and there was no point in changing it.
She took out a strong flashlight from the space again, and then cautiously re-entered the water.
Although he was only wearing a pair of rain boots, Shen Cong felt more at ease, at least he didn't have to worry about stepping on gravel and rubble under his feet.
In such sewage, it would be very troublesome in case of injury and infection.
Turning on the powerful flashlight, Shen Cong slowly walked forward.
Xu was in the vast rain and fog, her light was too conspicuous, and it didn't take long for someone from the library to respond to her with lights.
Shen Cong walked in the direction indicated by the light.
When she walked to the front, she found that the little soldier she knew was the neighbor who lived in the other two houses in Fulin.
Seeing her, the little soldier grinned and said, "Sister Shen Cong, come with me, our head is waiting for you."
Shen Cong followed the little soldier and walked inside.
Then she quickly knew what Liu Tuan was looking for her to do.
The location of the provincial map is either good or bad.
Itâs not good to say that it is not good. In such a big earthquake, apart from the collapse of a partial building, the main building hardly suffered any major damage.
Otherwise, it will not be identified by the government as a temporary relief point.
But to say it is good, its location is almost a relatively low-lying terrain in Bac Ninh.
Just looking at the water on the street outside is not much, it is almost condensed into a river here.
A place like this is not really a good place.
But this building is tall enough and big enough!
When the provincial map was originally built, it was positioned as a comprehensive building. The first to fifth floors were the library, and the sixth to ninth floors were the branches of the Bac Ninh Science and Technology Museum.
There is also an office area on the ninth floor.
And now, near the building, there are many soldiers and construction workers surrounding it, and it seems that a new passage is being built.
Shen Cong understood at a glance, this is to abandon the first to third floors of the provincial map, and directly build a bridge across the street from the outside, leading directly to the fourth floor of the library.
In this way, even if the outside is really flooded, the residents living here can guarantee the minimum safety.
Seeing such a scene, Shen Cong's heart suddenly calmed down.
She can do this job!
"Xiao Shen, this way!" A person in the distance greeted her.
Hearing that it was Liu Tuan, Shen Cong took two quick steps.
"Hey, I didn't want to call you. It's raining so hard, the old man and Xiao Gu are not well... Who knows you can sign up yourself.
Is the dam a place you can go? Can you carry it or carry it? "
Liu Tuan said, shaking his head.
If it weren't for the stubble on his face that he didn't have time to shave, and his red eyes, he was still so full of energy just by speaking, and he really couldn't see how tired he was.
Shen Cong didn't say a word. He took out a warm vegetable dumpling from the space and handed it over with a backpack as a cover: "My mother made it, Liu Tuan, you can eat it while it's hot."
Liu Tuan never thought that she would hand over one directly . The group came over and subconsciously reached out to block it.   Shen Cong stuffed the plastic bag directly into his hand: "You're welcome, I brought it specially for you, hurry up and eat it, you won't know how
busy you are later!"
Shen Cong said that Liu Tuan would not refuse again. He took it and took a bite, and then praised: "Delicious!"
That dumpling is really delicious.
Although the outer skin is made of cornmeal, the surface is ground at home, and it is very finely ground, full of the aroma of the corn itself, and at the same time does not squeak at all.
Inside are all kinds of vegetables grown at home. In addition to the vegetables, eggs, a little seaweed and dried shrimps are added to enhance the fragrance.
Things are not too expensive, and they are not difficult to find, but now there are not many people who are willing to eat like this with such care.
Liu Tuan ate a large vegetable dumpling in two or three mouthfuls, and then he was still a little unfinished.
At this time, Shen Cong had already left.
Almost all the soldiers here were recruited from the regiment headquarters. Shen Cong had been working in the regiment headquarters for so long, so naturally he knew a lot of people.
Without Liu Tuan's arrangement, she quickly found a suitable position.
Probably because she knew that Shen Cong was coming, and also knew how to use her powers, not long after she arrived, another truck came. The truck was loaded with scrap metal collected from various places in the regiment.
Steel bars, iron frames, all kinds of construction waste from junkyards, everything.
Shen Cong glanced around and found that there were even complete window frames and door frames, which were temporarily disassembled from somewhere.
It can be seen that in order to collect these things, the group has also spent a lot of effort.
Now that everything had been found, Shen Cong immediately went to work.
After meeting with the technical staff in charge of the project and understanding the work she had to do, she went directly to the front line.
Started to cooperate with everyone to build this temporary sky bridge.
Said to be temporary, safety must be guaranteed, and the overpass should not be built too narrow, to ensure that people can evacuate quickly in the event of an emergency disaster.
Putting these conditions together, the work intensity will naturally increase a lot.
Of course, what's more important is that the rain has not stopped, which makes the project even more difficult.
Shen Cong stayed in the provincial map for three days.
In the past three days, she basically did not have much rest.
As the only metal power user, her importance on the construction site can be imagined.
After three days, Shen Cong's rest and sleep time can really be counted on one hand.
Three days later, the overpass was basically completed. Although there are still many detailed works that have not been completed, there is no time to improve it.
People evacuated from various gathering points have been moved here.
Shen Cong and the others also evacuated from the overpass they built.
When she was walking on the bridge, she was still in a trance, and only felt soft under her feet.
The mental power consumed by Shen Cong in the past few days has exceeded the standard.
She also left with her several key leaders of the engineering team, including the designer who had been working with her before.
Everyone's fatigue level was similar to Shen Cong's. All the way, there was no sound, and no one had the slightest desire to speak.
Maybe some people almost fell asleep while walking on the road.
So much so that no one paid attention to the surrounding scene, until they got off the overpass, all of them were taken aback!
Because they found that it was not a car but a rubber boat that was parked outside waiting for them.
In the past few days, everyone's mind has been on building the bridge, and they have to ensure the quality and speed up the speed. Everyone can say that they are sitting without distractions.
So much so that no one cares about anything else at all.
Several people know that the water level in the provincial map is very high. After all, the second floor and below have all been submerged in the water.
But because they all saw the water storage capacity of the sunken square when they came, they didn't think much about it.
I just thought the terrain was low.
No one would have imagined that within three days, even the roads outside would be flooded, and boats could be parked on the streets.
Seeing the rubber boat, several people stood there in a daze, no one moved forward, and their eyes were a bit blank.
It was the little soldier on the boat who reached out to them, and they woke up and walked up one by one.
"Is this... a flood discharge?" As soon as they sat down, one of the people who accompanied him asked eagerly.
"No, there is no flood discharge." Said the little soldier rowing.
He didn't say more, but Shen Cong and the others didn't ask any more, their eyes all became sad.
If there is no flood discharge, the city will be flooded, then there is only one possibility - the Qianjiang Dam has not been saved.
Still haven't saved it!
Shen Cong sighed silently in his heart.
Although she had thought about this possibility before, who hasn't been lucky?
Well, who wants disaster after wave to come?
Several people in the same group had to go back to the Architectural Design Institute, so they agreed to send Shen Cong first, but Shen Cong did not refuse.
At the moment, her heart is gray, and she has no energy at all. She really wants to go home and have a good sleep.
Of course, she is more concerned about the safety of her family.
Although I didn't have time to talk to Liu Tuan that day, Liu Tuan naturally knew that she cared about Shi Chen and Cancan, and later specially asked someone to talk to her.
She told her not to worry, saying that Shi Chen was at the base with the working group, and since several bases were going to be relocated, he went to a new address to rearrange the formation, and he couldn't go home for the time being.
As for Cancan, Shi Chen wanted his sister to follow him, but Liu Tuan also promised that when the two of them were done, they would find someone to take them back and ensure their safety.
Not only did he tell Shen Cong where Shi Chen and the others were, but Liu Tuan also told Shen Cong about Wei Yan's movements.
Wei Yan and Shi Chen were different. Shi Chen followed the working group and went around several bases, so it was easy to find them.
As a soldier, Wei Yan, naturally, is where the danger is, Liu Tuan can only tell Shen Cong that he is very safe now and handles the transfer of residents in Qingzhou.
As for where it is and where it will go soon, Liu Tuan can't say.
But that's enough.
Knowing that the family is safe and sound is already reassuring.
Along the way, Shen Cong saw a lot of rubber boats.
It can be seen that most of the rubber boats are used to evacuate residents, and some are used to transport supplies.
Although the rain didn't stop, it was dark and foggy everywhere, but it could be seen that everything was going on in an orderly manner. At least Shen Cong looked over and didn't see any unacceptable chaos.
The rubber boat took Shen Cong directly to the building of Fulin Community, and stopped in front of a balcony that was exposed to the water.
The outward-facing side of the balcony had been knocked open, and it was now an access platform.
Shen Cong got off the rubber boat, said goodbye to everyone, and walked in along the platform.
Entering the platform is the bedroom of the family.
The house should have been requisitioned by the government, and the original residents have left.
There are still shadows of home everywhere in the house. Even the bed in the master bedroom was just moved away, lifted up against the wall, and there was no time to move it out.
The house outside was even more messy, the wooden floor was full of traces left by dragging heavy objects, and there were wet footprints all over the floor.
The security door is open, and everything in the house can be seen.
The house is full of daily necessities that have not been taken away in time. Although many of them are damaged and have no value, they all show traces of life.
Shen Cong didn't stay in this room any longer. To be honest, she felt very distressed.
Although she knew that it was helpless to use a private house as a public entrance and exit, but when she saw this, she could not help but think what if her own house became like this...
Just thinking about it, she felt that the whole person would Suffocated!
After coming out of the room, Shen Cong found that the place near the stairs leading down had been sealed off, and an iron fence was erected.
The fence is directly fixed to the wall, there is no chain.
From the gaps in the iron fence, you can also see the yellow stagnant water under the stairs, and one can't help but feel terrified at a glance.
Shen Cong went home along the stairs, and was naturally welcomed by the whole family.
Cheng Ru welcomed her in, and then asked a bunch of questions.
At the same time as Shen Cong replied, he immediately discovered something was wrong.
Looking at her mother, Shan Shan, and her father-in-law sitting on the sofa, Shen Cong felt that she suddenly woke up.
She immediately asked, "Mom, where's the rest of the family? Where's Gu Kai, where is my dad? Why aren't my sister and Tongtong at home?"
She just didn't come back for three days. What happened in the house? !
Seeing her anxious, Cheng Ru quickly said: "Don't worry, they just went out to work, it's alright, they'll be back at night.
It's very safe, everyone from our community will go there, and there will be a special rubber boat to send them at night. Come back and deliver it to the door."
"Where do you go to work?" Shen Cong was still worried.
"Go to the welcoming square in front. You know, it's not far from our community. Wasn't there a big shopping mall over there before, but now it's been requisitioned to resettle residents.
There are a lot of people who need to work there. Everyone went. Tong Tong was invited because of his supernatural powers.
Your dad and your sister went with you when they were worried. Oh, Liu Xiaofeng is also with you, don't worry."
"Where's Gu Kai?"
Shen Cong's main concern is naturally her husband, the rain outside has not stopped, his arm...
Thinking of this, a burst of anger surged in her heart, she just felt that this person really didn't know how to be considerate!
What was the reason why she rushed in front and wanted to go out to work with all the laborers?
Isn't it to reassure him?
If it wasn't for him, Shen Cong really wouldn't have rushed ahead at that time.
Seeing Shen Cong's thoughts, the old man Gu, who was sitting on the sofa, sighed and said, "Mong Cong, come and rest for a while, by the way, let me give you a pulse."
Shen Cong pursed his lips and did not step forward. .
"No, Dad, I'm fine, I'm just tired."
"Come here!" The old man glared at her.
In desperation, Shen Cong had to walk over.
Grandpa Gu helped her take her pulse, and determined that she was just mentally weak and had no other problems, so she let go.
He went into the room and personally took out the medicine from his medicine cabinet and gave it to Cheng Ru to fry it.
Then he said to her: "Drink a bowl of soothing soup before going to bed. Take a good rest today, don't think about anything else. When you wake up, they will come back.
" a sound.
Seeing that she was still angry, the old man Gu explained for his son: "Xiao Kai's body is fine, I don't know what his condition is. If he says he is fine, he will be fine, not perfunctory.
Several bases in the regiment ask for Relocation, many things need him to do, and people have come here specially to invite him, how can Xiao Kai say no? Besides, it's really unnecessary.
He's such an adult, you can't keep him at home all the time."
Shen Cong didn't Silence.
She knew that what her father-in-law said might be right. From an outsider's point of view, there was indeed a problem with her current handling.
But Shen Cong could never forget the scene when she saw the father-in-law lying on the bed when she returned from outside in the guest house, and she could not forget the scene she saw from Gu Kai's arm when she lifted Gu Kai's shirt.
Until now, whenever she thinks of it, her heart shrinks uncontrollably.
People sometimes have double standards.
It doesn't matter if you feel a little hurt, but you can't see the people closest to you getting hurt.
It may be because of the fact that you are injured, and the injury of your loved ones always makes people have an unknown fear.
She nodded and said sullenly, "I see."
Then she got up and went back to her room to take a shower and change her clothes.
Looking at her back, the old man knew that he couldn't turn around for a while, and couldn't help sighing with a headache.
Shen Cong drank the medicine and fell asleep without taking the medicine. This sleep can be said to be dark and dark, and she slept directly for a day and a night. When she woke up, it was already the next day.
She went to look for her family as soon as she woke up, but all she saw was her mother, her father-in-law and Shan Shan.
"They've all left again, you've been sleeping for a long time." Cheng Ru joked with a smile.
Shen Cong sat down at the table to eat, but she was thinking that Gu Kai didn't come back overnight.
Just by looking at the untouched quilt around you, you can tell.
"Xiaokai asked someone to bring a message back yesterday, saying that they can finish all the work in two days, and then he will come back with Shi Chen and Cancan, so that the family don't have to worry."
Seeing her thoughts, Cheng Ru explained on the side.
"I'm too lazy to care if I don't love it back." Shen Cong lowered his head to eat, and after a long time his mother said something in a muffled voice.
Seeing her duplicity, Cheng Ru was immediately happy.
Nodding again and again: "Okay, I don't care about him, we don't care. If I don't return my love, I won't even listen to someone else to talk about it in the future."
Shen Cong knew that what his mother said was ironic, but he still couldn't hold back his chopsticks. , looked up at her.
Seeing Cheng Ru laugh out loud.
The old man next to him also laughed.
After eating and sleeping, Shen Cong went upstairs.
This was the first time she went upstairs since the rain.
Because the rain had been taken into account at the beginning, they put a lot of effort into the decoration, whether it was waterproofing or drainage, so even if it rained like this, the top layer still looked fresh and refreshing.
The movable vegetable racks are placed in the simple greenhouse with tin roof.
Because of the high humidity and not being directly drenched by rain, those vegetables grew better than those under the previous sun exposure.
The pots are green and luscious, and there is no wilting.
It's just that the two big flower ponds that were built first in the family were unlucky.
Even if there is no problem with the drainage, there is a tin roof on it, but there is still water in the pool.
Both ponds are watery now, and they have changed into ponds.
All the potato seedlings that were planted in the pond before had disappeared. It was unknown whether they had been soaked in water or had already been ripened by Gu Kai.
Looking at the "pond", Shen Cong tutted.
Thinking about having fun in the midst of suffering, can you try growing lotus roots here?
Maybe there will be a catch in the end.
The little soldiers are busy, and no one is coming back to live now.
Zhou Ying and Liu Xiaofeng went to the supermarket, because Tongtong went, Xiaoyu was clamoring to be together, and they even brought their children there.
As a result, no one came up to the entire top floor now.
Shen Cong turned around, and then took out all the empty water tanks that were custom-made in the space.
Open the lid to catch the rain.
Because of the drought, she had used up a lot of water and never found a chance to replenish it.
It has been raining for so many days, and the dirt in the air has long been washed away.
Although the water at this time is not drinkable, it is definitely no problem to use water purification tablets to clarify it a little.
Although it seems that the rain is so heavy, it seems that there will never be a shortage of water. Who knows what the future will be?
Up to now, the waterworks have not been repaired, and the water supply used to rely on natural water sources.
But now the water in Qianjiang is definitely not drinkable, and the situation of other tributaries is unknown.
Rather than expecting the water from those places to be re-purified, Shen Cong felt that the rain might not have been clean.
She thought in her heart that she had to remember to tell Zhou Ying about this at night, and let her stock up on water as she walked downstairs slowly.
Seeing her come down, Cheng Ru recruited below
Chapter 106 (2)
Hu: "Go and change clothes quickly, then come and watch Shan Shan for me.
She's too noisy, she doesn't watch good cartoons, so she has to go to your father-in-law to tell stories.
Your father-in-law is making medicine! Isn't this causing trouble? Hurry up and get her out!"
Cheng Ru had noodles on both hands, obviously she was busy in the kitchen, and then made this little granddaughter devastated.
Shen Cong hurriedly went downstairs and asked, "Mom, what are you doing?"
"Baking a few buns, your sister said she wanted to eat it before she left today."
"My sister is just greedy. Speaking of buns, I remember Jiashu also likes to eat your buns, especially the one with plain stuffing.
What about Jiashu, where is he now? I havenât seen him since we separated that day.
Why hasnât he come back?â
Shen Shen Cong was called to get off halfway, but Jiashu went to Qianjiang with everyone.
Now that the dams on the Qianjiang River have collapsed, there is definitely no need for anyone to guard them.
Logically, the family tree should have returned long ago.
Thinking of this, Shen Cong's heart froze, only to realize that he had forgotten the family tree before!
I didn't even think to ask him.
Hearing Shen Cong asking about the family tree, the smile on Cheng Ru's face disappeared, and she became frowning.
Seeing her like this, Shen Cong was even more worried.
"Mom, what happened to the family tree, what did he do?"
"He has returned to the community. I didn't tell him, I don't know when the flood will be over. People are all coming to high places. Stay well, you have to go back!"
Chapter 107
"Why would a good family tree go back to the community?" Shen Cong couldn't understand.
"Hey, I'm not going back to the community, I'm going back to Qingshan Town. Speaking of which, it's not because of his well-drilling team!" After
hearing her daughter's question, Cheng Ru stopped making steamed buns and started to nag while standing at the table: " Didn't the headquarters of the well-drilling team in Jiashu later move to Qingshan Town? They said that there was a lot of work there, so they were looking for jobs.
As a result, the water has been distributed, and no one is drilling the well. The team has dispersed, and the headquarters The people who were in the company were also moved. But
as soon as he came back that day, someone came over and said that their valuable machines were all at the headquarters, and they had to go over to watch. In
the end, I donât know how they discussed it. In the end, they asked Jiashu to go there. While watching.
I told him not to go, but Jiashu said that he was familiar there, and there was no other person in the team. Everyone else has family members, but he is young and has not yet started a family.
Oh , If you don't have a family, you don't have family members! Other people aren't family members?!" The
more Cheng Ru said, the more angry she became, and she felt a little uncomfortable at the same time.
She actually understands Jiashu's idea. There are too many people living here, and Jiashu doesn't want to cause trouble for everyone.
The child always felt that he was an outsider and was staying overnight, and he was always afraid of making it difficult for others to do it because of himself.
But in fact, no one in the family treats him as an outsider.
"Let him go if he wants to. He is also in his twenties." The old man
led Shan Shan out, and then said.
"Besides, isn't Wei Yan still there? They are so familiar with each other, and they will take care of each other. If it doesn't work out, he will return to the community, and nothing will happen.
" Where to live." Shen Cong whispered softly.
I didn't dare to speak loudly, for fear that my mother would be more worried when she heard it.
However, she is not too worried about the family tree. According to what she saw on the way back, although the flood is unavoidable, the government has arranged it well and there will not be much danger.
Besides, Jiashu is a big guy, it's not that he has gone through something, so don't worry too much.
Brother and sister Gu Kai and Shi Chen came back at noon the next day.
When they come back, I will tell everyone that their work has been completed and they will not need to go out in the short term.
On the day they came back, other people in the family also brought back the same news at night, saying that the project at the supermarket was over, and they didn't have to go there any time soon.
Speaking of which, this is good news, but everyone's heart is heavy after hearing it.
Because they know that this is because the government is afraid that residents are in danger and is trying to prevent them from going out.
This also means that the heavy rain will not stop in the short term, and the government has no good plan for such flood disasters.
All we can do is preserve our strength and wait patiently.
The rain quickly flooded the fourth floor.
The room where Shen Cong and the others had entered and exited before was completely buried under water.
The heavy rain is still pouring, and through the rain curtain, it can be seen that the outside has become a sea.
There are fewer and fewer rubber boats that used to be seen. Occasionally one or two rowed across the field of vision, and you can see that soldiers are sitting on them.
It should be patrolling and saving people.
The outside became silent again, except for the rushing rain, no other sound could be heard.
All the residents below the sixth floor were picked up and should have been sent to a nearby temporary settlement.
Residents on the lower floors began to feel uneasy, always afraid that it would be their turn soon.
Although people didn't go out much because of the heavy rain, few people even walked on the stairs.
But everyone can feel the unspeakable pressure.
Tongtong and Shanshan don't make a fuss about going to play in the rain anymore. The two kids even lost interest in their beloved cartoons and Lego bricks.
When there is no adult in charge, I sit quietly on the balcony and look out through the glass.
At such a young age, there was a look of sadness between his brows.
Because the citizens have been organized to fight floods and rescues together before, and as long as the residents who participate, the food will be distributed at double the usual rate.
So at the beginning, every household still had some food in their hands.
But the rain didn't stop and the water level kept rising. Slowly, everyone started to panic.
Early this morning, Zhou Ying came to knock on the door. After opening the door, Shen Cong could see that her face was very ugly.
"What's wrong?" she asked aloud.
Zhou Ying's voice was full of anger: "The dishes downstairs were stolen!"
Shen Cong and the others lived on the 19th floor. Apart from the two houses on the opposite side, the four houses on the 18th floor were also stolen by the government. To buy down.
These houses were previously lodging for the little warriors.
Recently, due to the flood, the little soldiers have not come back to live, and those houses have been vacant.
Almost all the people in the Shen family who could manage their affairs were dispatched by the government, and Zhou Ying and his wife had no one to discuss.
Together, the two of them decided to grow vegetables in all those houses.
They naturally know the effect of the formation, and it is precisely because of this that they do not want those houses to be abandoned.
So when Xiaoliang came last time, they deliberately told him this idea, and Xiaoliang immediately agreed.
Don't be afraid if you don't have a key, there is Tongtong at home, so in the days when Shen Cong went to save the map, these two couples, Shen Xi and Shen's father worked together to make this big event.
They planted all six houses with vegetables.
Even after they went out to work, the vegetables in the house did not forget to pick them up. More than ten days later, those fast-growing green vegetables, lettuce and the like were already green, and they were about to be harvested.
But this morning, when Zhou Ying went down to water, she found that all the little greens were gone!
"I don't know who is so conscientious! In three or four days, those vegetables will be fully cooked. Now is the time to weigh the scales. It's so distressing to pick them now!"
Zhou Ying was so angry that she sat down. He couldn't stop, and even his voice was raised a lot.
"Who picked it? How did they get in?" Shen Xi heard the words and followed.
She and her son went together when they unlocked the door, and the chains of the chain doors were all made by Tongtong.
Shen Xi knew very well how thick the chain was, and it would take a lot of effort for ordinary people to get it open.
"It must have been picked by the people in our building, and no one else can come here. They cut the chain with pliers. Hey, I didn't say it, it must have been done by the family on the thirteenth floor. Their family relied on three They are all laborers, and they can be arrogant in this building.
If it weren't for them, the iron chain would be cut constantly by ordinary people!"
"It's hard to say. The three of them are all laborers. It stands to reason that they shouldn't run out of food now, right?"
"Then who knows? What if they don't know how to save?"
...
Several people are still discussing.
Zhou Ying was in a fit of rage at the moment, and the more she spoke, the louder she became, until the whole family heard the news and came out to express their concern.
And Shen Cong's mind was on the lack of food.
It has been raining heavily for fifteen days.
Even if the government subsidized a little before, the residents had some surplus food, but there would not be much.
Now it's just stealing some vegetables, and Shen Cong can hear it from Zhou Ying's words, even if it's stealing, the other party is actually restrained.
I only stole the ones that were about to mature, and those vegetable seedlings did not move.
What does this mean?
It shows that the other party is really short of food.
If this continues, the same thing will definitely happen again, and more and more.
"Zhou Ying, we haven't been at home very much these few days, and we don't know the situation. Do you know if there are people upstairs who are completely out of food?" Shen Cong asked.
"I don't know very well. People in our building don't usually come and go. At most, they go upstairs and downstairs to meet and say hello. I don't know much.
But I know that many people are thinking about the vegetables on our top floor. These days Several family members have come to ask if the vegetables upstairs are sold."
That's it.
Now the city has been advocating that citizens grow vegetables according to local conditions. It can be said that every household has something to grow, it is nothing more than the difference in how many.
But basically they can guarantee the self-sufficiency of their own vegetables.
Therefore, if it is not for lack of food, generally few people will ask to buy vegetables.
Shen Cong bit his lower lip and thought about it for a long time, then suggested: "Why don't we sell vegetables."
"Sell vegetables?" All the family members looked at her in surprise: "What kind of vegetables do we sell? A lot?!"
"The dishes on the top floor and the eighteenth floor. Pick up the ones that are almost cooked, and sell as many as you want. You don't charge money, but you collect points. We sell them for the government. Anyway, the dishes upstairs are originally from the base.
" Everyone looked at her, Shen Cong explained again: "I don't know when the city will start distributing relief food. If it doesn't distribute it, it will definitely cause people to panic again.
We can't say what's going on in other places, but at least Everyone in our community knows that we have a vegetable base on the top floor.
If you are very hungry, someone must be thinking about it.
In addition to Zhou Ying's family, there are so many people in our family, but they really don't have much fighting power. If people from the community form a group to forcefully buy food, can we protect it?
Since we can't protect it, let's just take the initiative to sell it.
I think I should stick to it for three or two days, and the government will definitely take action. Said to sell vegetables, in fact, is to calm anxiety.
Let everyone have a little hope that the days will not feel too torturous. "
"I think it's fine." If there is not enough food, I will give birth to some temporarily, how can I get through this period of time. Gu Kai was the first to express his support.
"Shen Cong can say whatever you want, your vote doesn't count at all. Dad, Uncle Gu, what do you think? "Shen Xi asked.
"I think it's fine." "Shen's father immediately spoke up and also expressed his support.
Everyone else also expressed their opinions, and no one objected.
In this case, everyone immediately took action.
Gu Kai and Shi Chen, Zhou Ying and Liu Xiaofeng went to the top floor together to make statistics. The harvested vegetables.
For some of the vegetables that were still a few days away, Gu Kai immediately used his ability to directly ripen to ensure the exchanged quantity.
After a lot of work, they harvested a total of more than 200 catties of sweet potatoes, more than 150 Fist-sized potatoes, in addition to a batch of loofahs, cucumbers, eggplants, beans and twenty pumpkins...
Although the number is not too much, it is still enough for emergency use.
After determining the harvested vegetables After the variety and quantity, Shi Chen and Liu Xiaofeng ran downstairs and knocked on the door, informing the neighbors of the news.
Of course, they also told everyone about the standard for point redemption.
Although the floods outside, the standard for redemption is the same as everyone else. Like going out to buy vegetables, there is no price increase. However, because it is a special period, the purchase is limited.
The vegetables that can be purchased per household are three to five kilograms per day, depending on the number of residents.
And the daily supply is fixed on a first-come, first-served basis.
As soon as this notice was sent out, the entire building was suddenly shocked!
Although when Shi Chen notified everyone, he specifically stated that the official exchange would not start until ten o'clock, and it is still in preparation.
But many people rushed upstairs after getting the news.
I wish I was staying at the entrance of the corridor on the top floor now, for fear that if I go in the afternoon, I won't be able to line up and I won't be able to exchange anything.
Shen Cong installed a security door with iron railings at the entrance of the corridor on the eighteenth floor, mainly because he was afraid that too many people would squeeze up and could not control the scene.
Then they put a table behind the iron gate, an electronic scale provided by Shen Cong was placed on the table, and the harvested vegetables were placed around the table in baskets.
It is such a simple environment, with a few vegetables, but let people see hope.
The lifeless atmosphere for several days in a row was suddenly changed. Neighbors who usually meet and nod their heads the most, but after queuing up, they soon became full of laughter.
The points system in Bac Ninh has been implemented for a long time, and now it has become a very mature model.
Not only the whole labor force, it can be said that the residents of the whole city have almost one copy.
As long as you have the spare energy to go out to work, more and less work will be shown on your points book.
So Shen Cong and the others said that using points to exchange vegetables is a way that everyone can afford to exchange.
In fact, there were not many neighbors in a building. The residents below the fifth floor were all transferred, and the eighteenth floor and above were government buildings, Shen Cong and Shi Chen, and they did not participate in the exchange.
Therefore, there are more than 40 households and 200 individuals in the entire building.
According to a family of five catties of vegetables, the dishes they prepared should be more than enough.
But what Shen Cong and the others didn't expect was that this matter was spread by dozens of people, and soon everyone in the community knew about it.
There are no rubber boats, and the residents on the opposite floor even paddled over to change dishes while sitting in the children's bath tub at home.
In the end, there were people who used broken wood and a raft made of foam boxes to come here.
It was not until four o'clock in the afternoon that the exchange work was finally over. On the first day, all the vegetables they prepared had been exchanged, not even a green vegetable seedling was left.
"Fortunately, there are only four buildings in our community. If there are two more buildings, we will not be able to prepare enough dishes."
Thinking of the hot scene just now, Liu Xiaofeng said with lingering fears.
"It's not enough food, it's just that the way they came here is too unsafe." Gu Kai frowned.
Bac Ninh is not a coastal city, and no one's family will prepare any kayaks or the like.
It would be nice to have a swimming ring for a child.
Just now, in order to come and change dishes, they used all kinds of strange vehicles. Some of them looked okay, and some of them really made people's hearts go to their throats.
For fear of not seeing it at a glance, the so-called ship would overturn directly.
"I went back and rummaged. I remember that we bought a rubber boat to go out to play, and I don't know if it is still there." Shen Cong said thoughtfully.
Gu Kai looked at her.
He knew that what Shen Cong said must be looking for it in the space, but when the family bought these materials, they always made a list.
Anyway, he hadn't seen a rubber boat on the list.
It's just that he certainly won't say it.   On the contrary, Shi Chen next to him heard this, and suddenly became energetic: " Aunt
Shen, look for it, if you can find it, I will row a boat and send it to them!"
are most interested.
It is estimated that Shi Chen has long been envious of watching the little soldiers rowing boats floating in the water every day.
In his last life, he had never experienced a flood from beginning to end, so Shen Cong really didn't prepare too many things that he needed in the event of a flood.
But she was terrified of all kinds of disasters, and she was always afraid that some unknown disaster would come suddenly.
So, although she didn't prepare it deliberately, she still bought a lot of swimming rings and life jackets.
Shen Cong also bought two rubber boats, not the professional ones, but she also bought the six-seater ones on purpose when she placed the order.
This at least ensures that when there is any danger, a family of ten will not be unable to sit down.
When he got home, Shen Cong went straight to the top floor and went to the specially built small warehouse to check it out.
Gu Kai went with her.
From the outsiders' point of view, they had cleaned the warehouse, but in fact it was Shen Cong who took out the previously purchased items from the space.
In addition to the rubber boat, she also took out two foam swimming rings and a life jacket from the space.
Seeing these things, Shi Chen's eyes will light up!
He immediately took the rubber boat and the inflator and ran home, and started inflating on the spot with Liu Xiaofeng.
On the other hand, Zhou Ying praised Shen Cong again, and praised her for her vision and preparation.
Of course, everyone is used to such compliments, and they are all immune, and there will be no special touches anymore.
This afternoon, Gu Kai ripened all the vegetables that were not yet ripe on the eighteenth floor.
Because when these vegetables were planted, the flood had already come.
Zhou Ying and his wife did not plant too many fine vegetables, such as beans, tomatoes, and cucumbers.
In addition to the green leafy vegetables that were stolen before, they planted potatoes, sweet potatoes, and pumpkins, which can be used as both vegetables and staple foods.
Sure enough, as soon as these dishes were taken out, they were greeted more warmly by people.
Shi Chen finally got his wish, and he could row a rubber boat to deliver food to several other residential buildings.
Those dishes were all weighed and packaged by Shen Cong and the others in advance.
Send it to the entrance of another building, and the people over there only need to take the points book and exchange it directly.
On the third day, more people came to exchange.
In addition to Fulin, people in some surrounding gathering points also began to hear the news one after another.
The exchangeable vegetables for each household have changed from five catties to three catties.
But even so, the vegetables that were guaranteed to be exchanged for almost five hours in the past can now be fully exchanged in less than three hours.
Various homemade boats to exchange vegetables lined up on the water.
Gu Kai started working extra hours, and the rest of the family also worked later and later.
There was no way, in order to save Gu Kai a little bit of effort, everyone hoped that they could do as much as they could and make him work less.
...
and this day lasted for another week.
Although I have repeatedly explained to everyone that the total number of vegetables supplied every day is limited, if the gathering point is too far away, donât run here, otherwise you will not be able to guarantee the supply.
Seeing that, more and more people come here every day.
Fortunately, just when everyone was really about to resist, the government's rescue team finally came!
First, there are more and more rubber boats that almost disappeared before.
Little soldiers and government volunteers drove boats, using loudspeakers and whistles at various gathering points to notify everyone, as a family unit, to the nearest temporary relief point to receive food.
In order to ensure safety, the collection time of different gathering points is also specially stipulated.
When the news spread, everyone cheered.
Those who have been trapped at home for a long time are all lying on the windows, banging on the pot and clapping their hands to express their joy.
With the government's support, Shen Cong's vegetable exchange work finally came to an end.
At this time, all the staff finally felt the unprecedented exhaustion.
Everyone was sitting, leaning, lying down, and no one could care about their posture, and they were so tired that they didn't even want to say a word.
If it weren't for struggling to get up to get the relief food, no one in the family would be too lazy to move.
In fact, the food provided by the government's relief food is similar to that provided by Shen Cong and the others.
The early compressed biscuits and luncheon meat have long since disappeared.
Now the pre-distributed relief food is also some potatoes, sweet potatoes, pumpkins, etc., and it seems that they are temporarily transferred from various bases.
But the more such a thing is, the more at ease everyone feels after receiving it.
Because for everyone, biscuits, instant noodles, and lunch meat are already non-renewable resources, so eat a little less.
The thought of never having it again makes one feel nervous in the hand.
And these vegetables will make people see hope.
Because it can be planted.
And since the government can distribute them as relief food, at least it shows that these can be guaranteed in large quantities.
When life is too depressing and the future is too gloomy, a little light and a little hope will rekindle the fighting spirit.
The government doesn't give out a lot, and a family may only get a small bag after rowing back and forth in a boat for an hour or two.
But just such a small bag of things comforted people's hearts, and the panic that had spread before disappeared so slowly.
And even more exciting things are yet to come.
No one can remember who was the first to discover it.
Just after forty days of heavy rain, suddenly one morning, someone in the yard shouted in surprise: "The rain has stopped!"
Everyone who heard the sound immediately woke up from their dreams.
After getting up, everyone almost all did the same thing, opening the window and looking out.
Then people were pleasantly surprised that it wasn't a prank.
It has been completely familiar to people, and even the indifference of the rain is gone, and the heavy rain has really stopped!
Although the sky is still a bit gray and the dark clouds have not completely dissipated, the sun can already be seen pouring out from the gaps between the clouds.
Every dark cloud seems to be bordered with gold.
Chapter 108
After the rain stopped, the first thing people did was dry the quilt.
It has been raining for more than a month, and every house is so damp that the bedding is about to be wringed out of water, and many things are moldy.
Although the stagnant water outside has not receded, the windows and balconies of each house are all covered with blankets, bedding, clothes, colorful, and it looks very lively.
Because the Shen family has a balcony on the top floor, it is more convenient than others to dry things.
So as soon as the sun came out in the morning, Cheng Ru called everyone in the family and instructed everyone to take the quilt to the top floor to dry.
Then he asked Shen Cong to take out the water, to disassemble and wash everything that could be disassembled and washed.
Just when the whole family was busy, there was a knock on the security door on the eighteenth floor!
As soon as the rain stopped, the temperature outside rose immediately.
Because the water outside is so stinky, the windows at home are usually closed.
In order to ventilate, the Shen family and Shichen's family don't close their doors during the day. Anyway, the security door in the elevator room is usually not opened.
Therefore, even though the house was very lively, the knock on the door downstairs immediately attracted everyone's attention.
"I'll go down and have a look." Gu Kai said.
In a few minutes, he walked up with a young man in his twenties.
The man was not tall, lean and lean, but he looked quite energetic.
Seeing him, the Shen family was all silent for a while, Shen Xi's face drooped down immediately, and the smile on his face was gone.
The man was sweating, he didn't seem to notice how unwelcome the Shen family was to him, and pleadingly said to Shen Jianyi and Cheng Ru, "Uncle, aunt, can you lend me your rubber boat? My grandma is sick, and we have to take her to the hospital."
Speaking of grandma, the man's voice brought out the tension and anxiety that could not be concealed.
Hearing that someone was sick, it was hard to tell no matter how much grudges there were before. Shen Cong immediately said, "Wait a minute, I'll get it for you."
But Mr. Gu said directly, "What's the condition of the patient, I'll talk to you about it. Let's go and have a look together."
He said and pointed towards the room, and Shen Xi ran over with a wink, took the medicine box and followed him out.
The man obviously didn't know that the Shen family had a doctor before, and he was overjoyed to see that medicine box!
His eyes turned red all of a sudden, and his voice trembled with excitement. He kept saying, "Uncle, I'll take you down. Look at my grandma. She passed out, and we don't know what happened to her."
The boy was talking, and suddenly burst into tears.
Shen Cong went upstairs and removed the rubber boat that was erected on the balcony.
Because now no matter who goes out, it has to be used, and the frequency of use is too frequent, so she didn't put it away, just put it on the roof and whoever uses it will pick it up.
But after taking it down from the downstairs, almost half of the family has left.
She glanced at her husband who was waiting by the side, and asked, "Dad went down with him?"
"Well." Gu Kai said, taking the rubber boat from her hand.
The young man who lived on the thirteenth floor just now was a member of the family that Zhou Ying suspected of stealing vegetables.
When it was discovered that the vegetables were missing, Zhou Ying, his wife, and the family all wanted to find out the person who stole the vegetables, clean them up, and teach him a lesson.
It was Shen Cong who stopped them.
At that time, she felt that the timing was not right.
That was the time when everyone was the most nervous and the nerves were the most tensed. If things weren't handled properly at this time, even a little thing could easily cause people's mood swings.
In case any uncontrollable event occurs again from this, it will be a small loss.
Therefore, she proposed to exchange vegetables to solve the survival problem of the big guy first.
After a long time, people's emotions stabilized, and the family didn't do anything else, so no one mentioned it again.
But who would have thought that Shen Cong and the others would stop talking about this matter, and the family would still come to the house to ask for help.
Shen Cong and Gu Kai went downstairs together.
They had never stayed on the thirteenth floor before, and they had never entered even if they went up and down the stairs.
Including the faces of the family's three full-time workers, Zhou Ying only remembered them when Zhou Ying showed them when they were changing vegetables. Shen Cong didn't even know which household they were.
But as soon as they turned into the stairwell, they saw it without asking.
Because the door of that house is wide open now, there are still many neighbors who are watching the lively around the door.
Seeing Shen Cong and the others carrying the rubber boat down, the neighbors let out the passage one after another, and the two of them were polite and walked in.
As soon as he entered the door, a stench rushed towards his face, stabbing Shen Cong to tears.
The whole person leaned back and was almost smoked out by the smell.
The flood flooded the road, and naturally flooded all the sewer pipes, and now the domestic garbage cannot be cleaned up at all.
Because the Shen family was on the top floor, and because they were prepared, they, including the Shi Chen family, closed all the sewer pipes in the house not long after the heavy rain started.
Domestic garbage, kitchen waste, and compost that can be composted with urine and feces, and those that cannot be composted are also stored together and sealed in a large iron box.
Therefore, there is no strange smell at home, and the garbage does not have a particularly big impact on their lives.
But downstairs is different.
First of all, no one has experienced heavy rain, and no one has thought that this sewer can be poured back, and it is not able to solve the problem of garbage storage.
So in addition to secretly dumping it into the water downstairs, it can only be stacked at home.
In addition, it has been raining heavily outside, and it is difficult to even open the windows to ventilate. You can imagine the sanitary conditions and smell of the house.
Enduring the unpleasant smell, Shen Cong and Gu Kai walked in.
At this time, the old man had already helped the old lady to diagnose and treat.
The old lady looked to be in her mid-70s, with white hair, very thin, and a hunched body.
There was only a small lump lying on the bed.
But even so, it can be seen that the elderly are well cared for at home.
Even though the overall sanitary conditions at home are not good, the things in the old man's house are still neatly arranged, the sheets and mattresses on the bed do not look sloppy, and the old man has no smell on his body.
This is not easy at this time.
The old man was having a high fever at this time, his cheeks were flushed, his eyes were closed, and it could be seen that everyone was confused.
There was a fever-reducing patch on her forehead, and there were still water and fever-reducing tablets beside the bed.
Don't ask, this is all from the old man.
Seeing the rubber boat that Shen Cong and the others brought, a man who looked to be in his fifties quickly greeted them and thanked them directly.
The young man who went upstairs to call someone before shouted, "Xiaojie, come and help!"
Then a man who looked about the same age as Shi Chen agreed and squeezed in from outside.
He still had a damp, cool towel in his hand.
The middle-aged man walked ahead with the rubber boat, and the two young men took care of the old lady and went downstairs together.
Seeing that the whole family was gone, the people watching the excitement naturally dispersed.
But everyone didn't go far, and when the old man came over, they surrounded him.
A neighbor asked worriedly, "Uncle, what's wrong with that old lady? Isn't it an infectious disease?"
The others also showed nervous expressions.
Everyone knows that epidemics are prone to occur after floods, especially in the current living environment.
How can you not be frightened when you see someone with a high fever?
This family on the thirteenth floor has three men of the right age, and they are the only ones in the whole building.
With them around, no one dared to say a word even if they were muttering in their hearts.
But now that they all went to the hospital, the neighbors dared to speak up.
After knowing that the old man is a doctor, everyone naturally wants to ask clearly.
"It shouldn't be an infectious disease, it's just a common inflammation. It's probably related to the sudden change in the weather. Don't worry." The
old man didn't hide it, and directly told his neighbors the diagnosis.
Seeing that he said it with certainty, and thinking that he didn't take any isolation measures when he treated the old lady just now, everyone's hearts calmed down a little.
"However, everyone should pay attention. Now that the weather is good, it is better to open the windows for ventilation. In addition, the hygiene of the home needs to be done. If there is disinfectant, it is best to spray the house. When the
weather warms up, mosquitoes There will be more flies, and it will easily cause problems when bitten by that time." The old man warned again.
"Oh, we think so too! Who doesn't want to keep the house clean? But that has to be conditional?"
I don't know which neighbor said a word, and others agreed.
Grandpa Gu didn't say anything else, this question is actually unsolvable.
Pollution and the spread of infectious diseases are all but inevitable unless dumping is addressed.
"Monggong, should we still have some disinfectant tablets at home?" the old man asked.
Shen Cong nodded, took the medicine box, and using it as a medium, took out a bottle of 84 disinfection tablets from the space.
Because of the cheap price and wide range of use of this disinfectant tablet, she bought 100 bottles at first, and one bottle was 500 tablets.
Except for the dozen bottles that were taken out in the community at the beginning of the earthquake, the others did not move at all.
If they use it by themselves, it will last forever.
The old man took the disinfectant tablets, distributed them to the neighbors, and told them the ratio of blending.
Then tell everyone again and again, when you go back, spray your home, especially the place where garbage is stored.
Neighbors are naturally grateful.
This thing is not worth a few dollars, but at this time it is impossible to buy it. Everyone knows its preciousness.
Xie Song and Lin Jie came to Shen's house together in the afternoon to return the rubber boat.
Shen Cong took the rubber boat and asked, "How is your old lady doing?" The
older young man said, "My grandma has tonsil inflammation. The doctor said it's fine, as long as the fever subsides
. Dad is escorting us in the hospital now, and we will return the rubber boat to you when we come back, in case you want to use it."
"Thank you for your help, if you hadn't borrowed the rubber boat for us, my grandmother would have suffered a lot. ' added another young man on the side.
Hearing their voices, Shen Xi followed.
Then he said to Shen Cong: "Let them in, Uncle Gu said he wants to ask them about their situation."
Shen Cong had to open the door to let them in.
As a result, what no one thought was that after the two young people entered the door, they did not talk about the old lady's condition first, but handed over an IOU without saying a word.
It reads "borrow 20 catties of small greens, return 50 catties, and repay within a month."
Below are the signatures of the two brothers, as well as the fingerprints they pressed.
Holding that IOU, Shen Cong didn't know what to say for a while.
After returning home in the morning, when the family was chatting about family affairs, Shenxi told the big guy about the situation of the Xie family that she had inquired about.
Even though they didn't stay at Xie's house for a long time in total, Shenxi had that talent, she just knew the family situation clearly.
The Xie family now consists of four members, the old lady, the old lady's son Xie Benliang and grandson Xie Song.
The other younger one, Lin Jie, was the only son of the old lady's daughter and her grandson.
Lin Jie's family had all disappeared in the previous earthquake. He had come from out of town to join his grandmother.
And Xie Song's mother was also killed in the earthquake, so now the Xie family consists of three elders guarding an old lady, and the four of them live together.
Although the old lady is old, she is the backbone of the family, and her family is very filial to her.
Otherwise, at her age, it would be a miracle to be able to survive in the last days.
Although the Xie family had no evidence for stealing vegetables, everyone tacitly knew that it was them, that's right.
For this reason, the Shen family had a very bad impression of them before.
If it weren't for the fact that they said they were going to send the elderly to the hospital, Shen Cong wouldn't have borrowed a rubber boat for them.
But after listening to Shen Xi's introduction, they went to the house to see them again, and they were sure that they were really filial to the old man, and everyone's impression of this family changed a little.
Although it can't be said that the impression is much better, but I decided from the heart to not care about that order.
But whoever thought of it, just after deciding not to pursue it, the two young people over there came over with an IOU.
"Uncle, aunt, and uncle, we were really wrong before.
We stole the food. My grandmother had a bad stomach. She couldn't go to the toilet by eating dry food. There are no leaves.
We saw that grandma was so uncomfortable, so we had to come up with this bad idea. "
Xie Song said with a look of shame.
"We will pay, uncle, aunt, we will pay for this dish!"
Itâs not raining anymore, and I should be able to go out to work right away. As soon as we leave work, weâll come back to pay you for the dishes.
Lin Jie agreed. Seeing that the two
had such a good attitude, and it was for the sake of the old man, Cheng Ru was the first to ease their attitude.
She was about to say something to comfort them, but Gu Kai stopped her
. He picked up the IOU on the table, folded it and put it in his pocket.
He said in a gentle but dignified tone, "You really have to pay for this dish, and you must pay twice as much.
Not to mention how serious the act of stealing vegetables is, when you pick them, you should know very well that the vegetables will ripen in a few days, and the yield will be at least double that of when you picked them.
In this case, if you don't ask yourself, your behavior is indeed despicable enough. Moreover, you actually know in your heart, that is the dish of the test base, right?
For the vegetables in the experimental field, the data of each batch from sowing to harvesting must be recorded to provide a reference for the promotion of planting on a large scale in the future. This is what every citizen of Bac Ninh City knows.
It is impossible for you not to know.
Now that you know that for your own self-interest, you even dare to take the vegetables from the experimental field, then you really didn't think about the consequences at all? Gu Kai spoke in
a low voice and a very gentle tone. But
probably because he has experienced a lot in the past few years, he has always served the government, and even went abroad on behalf of the country. There
is something about him that cannot be ignored. His aura was no longer the humble appearance he used to talk and do at first.
He said these words with a stern face, and directly called the two young people on the opposite side stupid.
Xie Song and Lin Jie's faces turned pale.
Lin Jie was younger, and his performance was more obvious. Both of his hands were clenched into fists.
He didn't know how to answer such a question.
He didn't even dare to look at Gu Kai, so he could only stare at his cousin who was sitting beside him.
Xie Song's face also turned red and white.
Facing Gu Kai's gaze, he opened his mouth a few times, but he didn't know how to explain it.
There was obvious regret in his eyes.
In fact, the two of them didn't need to speak, and everyone present could see that they didn't think much about it when they stole the vegetables.
They may not even realize that their actions can be so serious.
Gu Kai must have been staring at Mao, and he wanted to protect his younger brother.
Xie Song gritted his teeth, looked at Gu Kai bravely, and said, "Brother, I did this, it has nothing to do with my brother. I went by myself when I stole the vegetables that day, and he was at home with my milk.
This matter has nothing to do with him at all. He just came up to me to return the rubber boat. Don't scare him. I
know you all work for the public family, and I know you have something to do with the government. Come on, this matter How do you solve it, how do you punish me?"
After that, he gave his cousin a wink and scolded: "It's none of your business, you go home first!"
"I don't!" Hearing what my cousin said , Lin Jie also committed stubbornness.
He stalked his neck and said, "Why did you do it yourself? I went there too.
If it wasn't for me, would you be able to get in through that door? What's the matter with the brothers!"
"You!" Xie Song did not expect At this time, my cousin raised his fist in anger.
Lin Jie did not show weakness, and his head was raised even higher.
Shen Cong didn't expect to be able to see such a good show of two brothers loving each other in his own home, and couldn't help but want to laugh for a while.
She knew that Gu Kai said this, a large part of the reason was to deter these two.
It was like killing a chicken to warn a monkey, frightening the two of them, and when someone came up with the same idea, they would have to be more careful.
But who would really take them?
"We'll talk about the dishes later. I heard you say that you opened the door? Lin Jie, how did you break the chain?"
Shen Cong interrupted the confrontation between the two brothers and asked.
Hearing her question, Shen Xi, who had been watching the fun, also came over, and she was very curious.
After all, the house was the one that she took Tongtong to lock, and the iron chain was made by her son.
At that time, everyone agreed that the incision was cut with scissors, but after hearing what Lin Jie said, it seemed that there was another possibility.
"I didn't open it very much, just... I pulled it, the chain is not very strong."
When Lin Jie heard the question, he stopped staring at his cousin, turned his head and replied a little embarrassedly.
"Not strong?" Shen Xi was the first to quit.
She stood up and tugged at Lin Jie: "Come here, you show me a gesture, let me see why it's not strong?"
She didn't take Lin Jie downstairs, but took a tongtong directly from the house. The iron chain I made was wrapped around the legs of the coffee table at home a few times after I came out, and I locked it with a lock.
Then he pointed and said to Lin Jie, "Take it for me."
This chain is about the same thickness as the iron chain downstairs.
Looking around, everyone was staring at him, but Lin Jie didn't shirk. He crouched down and grabbed one side of the chain with both hands. With a gentle pull, the chain split from the middle.
And the crack is like a knife cut, extremely smooth.
Shen Cong: "..."
Shen Xi: "..."
Everyone: "..."
Gu Kai reached out and took the broken chain, looked at it and handed it to Shen Cong.
He didn't speak, his eyes flashed with excitement.
When Lin Jie said that the chain is easy to break, the whole family doubted that he had supernatural powers, but they couldn't tell what kind of superpower he had.
Gu Kai's first reaction felt that he should belong to the power type.
But looking at the knife-like fracture, he realized that this young man should have the same metal ability as Shen Cong.
Strength-type abilities definitely can't make such a cut.
"Do you know that you have supernatural powers?" Shen Cong asked, looking at the chain in his hand.
Lin Jie's eyes were blank for a moment.
He looked at his cousin and the iron chain in Shen Cong's hand, and asked, "Ability?"
Xie Song, who was next to him, was also stunned, and blurted out, "What ability? He's just a little bit strong. "
Shen Cong didn't explain, but handed the broken chain back to Lin Jie again.
He continued to ask, "If you can tear it off, then you will definitely be able to repair it. You can repair it and let me see."
Lin Jie held the chain, looking a little embarrassed.
He gestured in his hand for a long time before he said, "How can you fix this broken one? It's all broken."
Then he looked up at Shenxi: "Sister, you asked me to pull it.
" I listened to your words. Now that it's broken, you can't rely on me.
Shen Xi was immediately amused: "Okay, I made you drag it, I won't let you repair it."
It was only then that everyone understood that Lin Jie didn't understand how to use powers at all, and what he did before was just instinct.
In fact, it is understandable to think about it.
Shen Cong can use the ability because she has rebirth experience, she has never eaten pork and seen pig run.
In her last life, she had seen other people manipulate abilities, and she knew what to do if she did.
Gu Kai will be because he heard Shen Cong say that there is more or less a direction to work hard.
Shan Shan and Tong Tong learned from Shen Cong and Can Can, while Can Can watched Gu Kai's performance and learned from it.
As for the other power users, it was originally trained by professionals.
Therefore, Lin Jie doesn't know how to control abilities, which is normal.
"You do as I say..."
Shen Cong motioned for Lin Jie to lift the chain, and then said to him.
Chapter 109
The old lady of the Xie family came back the next day. After they were settled, Gu Kai took Lin Jie and Xie Song to the tour group.
The rain stopped, and everything slowly returned to the right path.
Now the group is putting more energy on post-disaster reconstruction, abilities like Lin Jie are really useful in this situation.
Liu Tuan was very happy to know that there was another ability user here from Fulin, and repeatedly nagged that after this period of time was over, they had to let those boys move in there.
Said that the array method is really useful.
Moreover, Liu Tuan also told Gu Kai a piece of good news. The long-awaited civilian electricity supply will soon be restored.
The list of national resource allocation has come down, and the amount of coal and gasoline that Bac Ninh can allocate is very satisfactory.
Now, because the flood has not receded, resources will be able to be delivered when the water recedes, and urban construction will inevitably reach a new height.
When Liu Tuan said these words, he was in high spirits, with a long-lost smile on his face.
Gu Kai also felt that his heart was very open when he heard it, and felt that the hard work of himself, his father and other teammates was not in vain.
Lin Jie and Xie Song were left behind by Liu Tuan, saying that there was a shortage of people in the regiment, especially strong laborers like them, so they should stay and join the commando.
It was a big surprise for the two boys.
After all, it is a rare good thing to be able to work for the government, at least for a long time without worrying about food, drink and points.
The two of them were overjoyed, and they almost jumped and ran after the little soldier. Gu Kai had to go home alone.
I can't feel it when I stay at home for a long time. I can see that the water level has started to drop.
Along the way, you can see a lot of houses that were submerged in the water before.
The walls of many houses are still wet, including Fulin, and now if you want to go out, you have to go through the entrance on the third floor.
Before Gu Kai got home, he heard the sound of laughter and noise coming from the house. It should be that several children were there, and he could hear Tongtong's cry from so far away.
"What are you doing?" He took two quick steps and pushed the door in.
Seeing him, Tong Tong rushed over first, took his hand and said, "Uncle, uncle, come here quickly, Shan Shan is making ice cream for us! Our whole family has eaten it, so it's you."
"Oh . Then I have to try it." Gu Kai followed with a smile.
Cancan and Tongtong's abilities have been brilliant in these days.
Now who doesn't know upstairs and downstairs, there are two little geniuses living on the 19th floor, super awesome!
One that can produce a large amount of water mist, can water plants, and is the treasure of various planting bases.
There is another one that is even more powerful. It can control metal. Even the people in the army attach great importance to it. In order to let him help with the work, there is a special person who is responsible for picking it up every day!
But no one knows that there is a third little power user upstairs, Shan Shan who can control ice.
Every time my brother and sister Cancan go out to work, my mother and grandfather always keep her at home and let her play with my grandmother and my grandfather Gu.
The little girl was very aggrieved.
As a result, this morning, after Gu Kai accompanied the two brothers of the Xie family to the group, someone else came to invite Shen Cong and Tong Tong to go to the supermarket to reinforce the previous pontoon bridge.
After Shen Cong took Tong Tong away, Shan Shan started crying at home.
The little girl was very sad, and neither Cheng Ru nor Shen Jianyi persuaded them to stop, and Shen Xi was even more troubled by the crying of the little girl.
Later, Old Man Gu came up with an idea. He found ebony, hawthorn, and licorice from his library of medicinal materials...
Then he gave it to Cheng Ru and asked her to cook a large pot of sour plum soup.
After the sour plum soup was cooked, the old man seriously rescued Shanshan and asked her to make some ice cubes to cool down the sour plum soup.
The little girl stopped crying when she saw that she had something to do, and was happy to do as the old man asked.
Seeing how happy her granddaughter was playing, Cheng Ru extravagantly took some rock sugar and put it in, and the sour plum soup tasted even better.
When the big pot of iced sour plum soup is ready, Shan Shan personally invites Xiaoyu, Cancan and Zhou Ying to the door.
In fact, this is easy to understand. Where can I find such an iced drink at such a time?
It must be delicious for anyone who drinks it.
But Shan Shan doesn't understand this, so she gets complacent when she hears someone complimenting her child.
Knowing that Shan Shan can make ice, Xiao Yu suddenly became energetic, pulling her and Cancan to start thinking about making ice cream together.
Usually the children rarely have the opportunity to play together. Seeing them so happy, the adults didn't stop them. Shenxi even provided them with several spoons of milk powder, and Cheng Ru also gave them a small bowl of honey.
Not to mention, because there are many adults in the family and there are many people who can advise, the ice cream really made the little guys figure it out.
As soon as Tongtong came back, he was fed by his sister and good friends, and the child was very happy to eat.
As for what Gu Kai ate, this was already the second wave made by Shan Shan and the others.
"I still think this sour plum soup is delicious. Speaking of which, I haven't had such an authentic taste for many years."
While Gu Kai and the others were eating ice, Shen Cong drank another bowl of sour plum soup and sighed.
"Don't drink too much if you like it. You've already had two bowls. It's a restraining thing. You can't drink too much at one time." Mr. Gu sat aside and said slowly.
After the family finished eating and drinking, Mr. Gu said what he had been thinking about for several days.
He first asked Gu Kai, "You went out with Xiao Xie and the two brothers today. Did they tell you what the hospital was like?
I haven't been out recently, and now I don't know anything about the situation outside."
Gu Kai knew his father What are you worried about, and he asked about it specifically today, and it is really clear.
He said to his father: "Xie Song said that when they went to the hospital yesterday, they did see a lot of patients. Many of them had diarrhea, and many of them had skin diseases. It
was said that the doctors in the hospital were too busy, and the symptoms were mild and casual. After giving some medicine, they were sent home, and they were not allowed to stay in the hospital at all.
The reason why their grandmother let her stay in the hospital for a day was because the old lady really had a high fever, and the other was because she was too old to let her stay in the water. I went back and forth like this.
But there are obviously not enough beds in the hospital, and Grandma Xie stayed on the reclining chair in the corridor for the night."
Mr. Gu obviously had thought of this situation in advance, and he was not too surprised after hearing it.
He just nodded and sighed: "It's normal for infectious diseases to break out after the flood. If you deal with it in time, it's easy to control it. But
the current situation is..."
He sighed and stopped talking.
The current situation is that the sanitary environment is too bad.
Under such circumstances, the breeding of the virus is inevitable, and even if it is known that it will spread, there is no effective way to contain it.
"I told Liu Tuan about this just now. He said that the garbage removal work in the city has started in the past two days.
Before, the main methods of garbage removal in our city were compression landfill and low-toxicity incineration. Now Neither of these two methods can be used, and recycling garbage has become a very difficult problem."
"What are you going to do now?" Shen Cong raised her head and asked.
"I didn't ask too clearly. Listening to Liu Tuan's tone, he didn't quite understand what to do. It seems that the experts proposed recycling that can be recycled. If it is really impossible to deal with it, compress and seal it first, and then treat it uniformly after the water level drops.
" Then the cost is high." Shen Xi sighed.
"It's better to be tall than to watch everyone get sick," the old man said.
Everyone naturally agreed with the old man's words.
Shen Cong thought about the piles of boxes full of garbage upstairs in his house, and in his heart he also agreed with what his sister said.
Now this kind of situation helps the citizens to clean up the garbage, and the cost to the government is really huge.
But it is also necessary.
After lunch, the old man called Shen Cong into the room, sorted out all the medicines he had prepared for a long time with her, sorted out two boxes of various medicines, and then asked his son and daughter-in-law to accompany him. A trip to the regiment.
This is the first time the old man has returned to the regiment after returning home to recuperate. It has been more than two months since the last visit.
Knowing that the old man was coming, Liu Tuan was taken aback.
Leaving behind the work he was doing, he greeted him in person.
After seeing that the old man was still very thin, his body was almost in good shape, but his feet were not empty when he walked, Liu Tuan showed a happy expression.
"Master, is there anything I need you to do in person? You can ask Gu Kai or Xiao Shen to give me a message. I'll just go over there?"
"I'll send you something." It is straightforward to say.
"Send something? What?" Liu Tuan was confused by what he said.
Old Man Gu looked at his son and daughter-in-law. Shen Cong first put the plastic sorting box he was holding on the table, and Gu Kai also put the one in his hand aside.
The two of them opened the box together.
Looking at the organized boxes of pills and various packaged Chinese medicines, Liu Tuan felt that he understood.
His expression immediately turned serious.
"Master, is this... is there going to be an epidemic?" His voice brought out tension.
"Don't panic." Old Man Gu waved his hand.
"I'm just in case."
He pointed to the two medicine boxes: "I've kept these things for two years, and all the medicines grown at home are here. Don't think about it, it's not that I I know what kind of plague will appear, and I don't have the ability to predict. It's
just that the sanitary conditions of each household are too poor. It's normal to get sick in this situation.
You can distribute these medicines to various gathering points, let me They keep it as a spare. I have written the medicinal properties and usage clearly and put them inside, and let them do the same." The
old man said, and took out a densely written piece of paper from his pocket and handed it to Liu Tuan.
"These are two decoctions for prevention and boosting immunity. The medicinal materials used are not expensive, and basically the hospital should have stocks in stock. If you ask them to look for it, it is best to distribute them as well, so that the gathering points can boil. Cooking it for everyone to drink is also a way to reduce disease." The
old man said something, and Liu Tuan nodded.
And the expression is very serious.
Old Man Gu was very satisfied and felt that this was Liu Tuan's respect for him.
However, Shen Cong and Gu Kai knew very well that Liu Tuan was frightened by what the old man said before. In his heart, he must have thought that a new plague might come soon.
How can you not be nervous? How could it be ignored?
However, for such a misunderstanding, the couple chose not to explain it, let alone to break it.
The government attaches great importance to it, otherwise it will pay more attention to the sanitation of the living environment of the residents, and will deliver medicines to everyone according to the proposal.
Whichever is good for the residents, why not do something like this?
Finally finished talking about the medicine, the old man asked about the situation in the community again, and he specially explained that these medicines must be sent to the community.
Liu Tuan naturally agreed.
Because the community is a national-level test base, and the soil in the community is extremely precious, the city has always attached great importance to it, and there are naturally many contacts.
Liu Tuan is still very familiar with the situation in the community.
The water in the city has become like this, and the community can't escape it.
However, Shen Cong's idea before was right. The terrain on the side of the community is much higher than in the city, so the flooded situation there is much stronger than in the city.
The water in Fulin has flooded to the fifth floor, but there are at most a few households in the community that flooded to the second floor. Many villas with high terrain have not even flooded the walls on the first floor.
"Hey, Xiao Gu came this morning, I just talked about other things, and forgot to mention the serious things.
Old man, when Wei Yan called the other day, I asked specifically, and he said that your house has been kept and let you guys Don't worry. Don't worry.
Your villa suffered almost no damage from the flood, and it is the best-preserved house in the entire community."
"The best-preserved house?" .
Because he was in the community before, he didn't know how many times he walked through the whole community, and he knew the environment very well.
Speaking of which, the Shen family's villa was good, but it was not at the highest position in the entire community.
The best location in the community is the row of Sun Qing's house, which not only covers a large area, but also has the highest terrain.
Usually, the four houses in the whole courtyard have a somewhat condescending feeling.
Therefore, if it is said that Sun Qing's house is in the best condition and there is no problem, Mr. Shen believes it.
After all, the house was blessed with natural resources, and the little girl Sun Qing lived at home again. When it rained heavily, she would definitely take care of her home as much as possible.
But to say that the Shen family villa is the best... how is it possible?
For the past two months, there was no one at home.
But Shen Cong believed it.
No one knows better than her what the family is like.
"Is it the rain that can't get in?" she asked.
Liu Tuan suddenly laughed: "No, Wei Yan said he was stunned when he returned to the community. I heard him tell me, and I laughed so hard at the time. Xiao Shen, don't say it, you are really There is a set!"
He said, giving Shen Cong a thumbs up.
The soil of the Shen family is more precious than other places in the community.
Therefore, knowing that the heavy rain was coming, the work team patrolling outside immediately turned around and returned to the community immediately.
Everyone had the same idea, to rescue as much soil of the Shen family as possible before the heavy rain, as much as possible.
In this way, it is not always strong after soaking in water.
In the end, when they went back, they saw that Shen Cong made that big iron shell like a tortoise shell.
But this kind of operation is really effective.
Because at the beginning, Shen Cong wrapped the whole house with iron sheets, and the outside was directly outside the courtyard wall.
In addition, the members of the working group deliberately blocked all the door cracks and gaps in advance, so this heavy rain really did not cause any damage to the house.
There wasn't even a drop of water in the house.
The soil in the yard was not even wet.
The development of this kind of thing is beyond everyone's expectations, and it is also extremely good news for Shen Cong and the others!
The old man immediately proposed to go home and tell his two relatives the good news.
After handing over the ledger that recorded the grade points for vegetables to Liu Tuan, the group returned home.
Sure enough, after Shen's father and Shen's mother knew the news, the joy was even deeper than theirs.
Shen's mother, Cheng Ru, is even more excited and must add dishes to everyone in the evening!
The flood receded completely after a month, and the land that had receded was a mess.
Many houses were washed away in this flood, and the farmland that many people had worked so hard to cultivate became wasteland again.
But in general, people are lucky this time. At least after such a big flood, the whole city added up, and not many people died in the flood.
It's far better than everyone expected.
After the flood, all the people threw themselves into the busy post-disaster reconstruction.
Cleaning, cleaning up garbage, killing insects and spraying medicines, boiling traditional Chinese medicine to prevent epidemics...
Everyone is so devoted to completing their work that they always feel that there is not enough time.
In the blink of an eye, more than a month has passed, and the overall state of the city has improved a lot.
The houses that can still live in the house have been cleaned up again, and the streets with wanton sewage have also become clean.
People in those temporary gathering points were moved again and evacuated, and several new gathering points were opened in the city.
Everything is developing for the better.
It's almost May.
But because the weather hasn't changed much for a long time, in the two months when it rained heavily, everyone was still wearing short-sleeved sleeves, so everyone was numb for a few months and didn't feel anything at all.
But one day, I don't know who suddenly looked up, and was surprised to find that the leaves on the tree turned yellow.
As if overnight, the city entered autumn.
For such a change, most people are happy to see it happen.
After all, it has been three years of summer in a row, and the heat is enough for people to live. The weather is getting cooler, and everyone can feel the coolness brought by the wind, and everyone feels extremely comfortable.
Some people have some vigilance in their hearts through the weather changes in the past few years.
While feeling the arrival of autumn, upstairs, balconies, windows, many people have taken out sweaters, down jackets, and thick quilts that have been collected for a long time to dry.
But more people didn't think much about it. They always felt that it was just a little bit cooler, and it was only May, and it was too early to be cold.
For those who prepared in advance, many also showed sarcasm and ridicule.
But these sarcastic people were quickly slapped in the face.
That night, Shen Cong suddenly woke up from the cold after sleeping until midnight.
At first she thought that Gu Kai stole her quilt, but when she opened her eyes, she wrapped the quilts of both of them around her body, while Gu Kai didn't cover anything and was frozen tightly. live her.
She patted her husband, then lifted the quilt and put a corner on him.
But as soon as he got close to his icy body, he shivered from the cold.
"Why is it so cold?" she complained.
"Is the window open?" Gu Kai woke up after being tossed around by her.
"I'll take a look," he said, sitting up.
Shen Cong also sat up: "I'll go to the closet and get the quilt out. It won't work, I'll freeze to death." She turned
on the light as she spoke.
As soon as the light was turned on, Shen Cong's eyes were attracted by the electronic watch next to the lamp.
It was a multi-function electronic watch, in addition to the normal time display, there was also a display of temperature and humidity.
Shen Cong looked at it, and then blinked in disbelief.
She took the electronic watch and pointed at the numbers on it, and said to her husband in shock, "Octave! Gu Kai, there are only eight degrees in our room now!"
Gu Kai was also startled.
He glanced at the window first, and found that it was tightly closed, with no sign of opening at all, and then looked at the electronic watch again to make sure that Shen Cong was right, there really was only an octave in the room.
"No wonder it's so cold! This is winter coming early."
Even though they had always been prepared, neither of the couple would have thought that the cold weather would come so quickly!
She was wearing short sleeves the night before. When she went to bed at night, Shan Shan told everyone that she wanted to make ice cream again in the morning.
Who can think of the effort to sleep, the temperature has dropped by more than 20 degrees!
"Give everyone the quilt first, and we'll talk about the rest later."
Shen Cong had recovered from the shock.
She first dug out two long down jackets from the space, put one on herself, and threw one for Gu Kai.
Although wearing a down jacket is a bit nondescript at the moment, finding clothes in the middle of the night is also a hassle.
Gu Kai didn't say anything, just put it on, then hugged the quilt he found with his wife, and knocked on the doors of each bedroom next to each other.
In fact, all the family members were woken up by the sudden chill, but they didn't react for a while.
After receiving the quilt, everyone realized that the extremely cold weather that Shen Cong said before was really coming.
Shen Cong took out three more quilts and went to knock on the door of Shi Chen's house with Gu Kai.
Shi Chen and Cancan returned to Fulin with their parents from the rental house over the school in the summer, and most of the household necessities were there before they could be retrieved.
Not to mention the Zhou Ying family, everything in the family was crushed in the rubble.
A few of them together, I'm afraid they won't even have a decent thick quilt.
Chapter 110
Because Zhou Ying's family of three lived downstairs, Liu Xiaofeng came to open the door.
When Liu Xiaofeng opened the door, he wore short sleeves, his teeth were rattling from the cold, and he couldn't even speak.
The body trembled as if it had been electrocuted.
As soon as he opened the door, Gu Kai immediately threw him a quilt.
Liu Xiaofeng took it over without saying a word and quickly put it on his body.
At this time, Zhou Ying also came out of the room.
She was wearing thicker than Liu Xiaofeng, but there was only one extra thin jacket, the one that Shenxi gave her when she first left the community.
It is estimated that this is the thickest clothing wrapped around him.
Seeing Shen Cong and his wife, Zhou Ying took two quick steps and picked up the other quilt.
"Why is it so cold? It's freezing to death!" Zhou Ying was trembling as she spoke.
Then she saw the down jackets those two people were wearing, and suddenly laughed: "Why are you two wearing so thick? It's only been a few months, and
you've been wearing down jackets?" "Shen Cong pointed to the quilt.
Then he said to her: "After you get up later, you can go home and bring some clothes back.
Xiaofeng should wear Gu Kai's clothes, you can wear my sister's or mine's clothes. Just
make it up and deal with the past . Let's talk about it for a while."
"How about that? How can I wear your clothes?" Zhou Ying was anxious.
Shen Cong rolled his eyes: "Then don't wear it, it's just frozen."
Zhou Ying was speechless immediately.
Liu Xiaofeng next to him burst out laughing.
"I'm impatient to listen to your polite words, and I don't know who to learn from. I've known each other for so long, but I'm still so polite."
Listening to Shen Cong complaining, Zhou Ying was not angry, and pursed her lips in amusement.
And the two men let them both talk and do their own thing.
Liu Xiaofeng carried the quilt back to the room and covered Xiaoyu as quickly as possible.
Gu Kai went directly to the second floor and gave the quilt to Shi Chen.
When he came down again, he came down with Shi Chen, and by the way, he also hugged Cancan down.
The child was sleepy a lot, and although he also felt cold, when Gu Kai knocked on the door, Shi Chen didn't wake up at all.
It took him a long time to knock the boy up.
In the same way, when the two went to Cancan's room, the little girl had shrunk into a ball of freezing and shivered, but she was still sleeping, and it was not until her brother picked her up from the bed that she finally opened her eyes. .
Shen Cong took Can Can, who was wrapped in several towels and quilts, and explained it to Zhou Ying and Shi Chen again, asking them to go home to get clothes at dawn, and then took the little girl back home.
At this time, all the adults in the family got up, and they were all wrapped in cotton coats.
Everyone has not yet adapted to the sudden cold, all sleepy-eyed, either standing or sitting, all staying in the living room with a sluggish look on their faces.
Shen Cong directly stuffed Cancan into Shan Shan's bed and let the two little girls continue to sleep together.
Tongtong tried her best to open her eyes to look at her.
"Go to sleep, it's still early, hurry up to sleep." Shen Cong confessed softly.
Tong Tong hummed, turned around and fell asleep again immediately.
"0 degrees!"
As soon as Shen Cong came out of the room, he heard her sister's exclamation.
Then she saw Shenxi holding a thermometer in his hand and pointing at the numbers on it, with a shocked expression on his face.
The temperature is dropping so fast!
Shen Cong had never experienced extreme cold weather in his previous life.
She was bitten to death by insects not long after the flood.
The floods back then were worse than they are now.
Not to mention how much it rained and how deep the water was.
In fact, it only rained for twenty days in my last life, and the stagnant water only submerged one floor.
From the perspective of the flood, it is not as serious as this life.
But in the last life, people's constitution was weak because of the lack of food supply.
Then the full labor force is very small, and the post-disaster reconstruction work has not developed so rapidly in this life.
At least, not so many temporary rescue points have been built.
In the last life, although the rain was not so heavy and the water was not so deep, many people died.
There was also an outbreak after the disaster.
The most important thing is that because the garbage has been unable to be cleaned up, the stench is everywhere, and as a result, the poisonous insects have multiplied.
The poisonous insects were different from the batch of insects before the heavy rain. The previous insects were of low toxicity. Although the mouthparts were also poisonous, as long as the bite area was not too large, at least they would not be life-threatening.
But what Shen Cong encountered was the kind of poisonous insects that breed after the rain.
Once bitten by the bug, the human body will immediately begin to fester, and then discharge yellow pus.
Wherever the pus flowed, it continued to fester...until death.
Before Shen Cong died, the weather had indeed turned cold, but it was definitely not as fast as it is now.
She remembered that it was just one night into autumn.
It's still hot to wear short sleeves during the day, and a thick coat is necessary after a night.
But there is no such thing as a direct drop from thirty degrees to zero degrees.
Shen Cong had never experienced such a change, so she didn't know how to deal with it for a while.
"How much ginger is there in the house? How much chili?" Old Man Gu asked.
His expression was very solemn, and he had already entered the kitchen as he spoke.
Cheng Ru and Shen Xi immediately went in to check, while Shen Cong and Gu Kai took out a large heating stove from the space and began to install it.
At the beginning, they bought a total of fourteen heating stoves, four and ten small.
The ten small ones cannot be connected to the radiator, but they are easy to move, saving energy for cooking and fast ignition.
So whether it is in the community or in Fulin, small heating stoves are always used for cooking at home.
But the temperature is already so low at this moment, and it is not suitable to use the smaller one. Naturally, the larger one should be installed and the radiator should be connected well.
When the two of them were cleaning up the heater, Mr. Gu had already found all the ginger in the house.
Because I just harvested a batch before, and now there are still more than half of the remaining pots, which must be five or six pounds.
But the old man didn't think it was enough.
"Xixi, go and take out all the chili peppers in the house.
Gu Kai, don't mess with that, come over and give birth to some more ginger, hurry up!" The
old man's tone was very anxious, and the family was also made nervous by him. stand up.
Father Shen quickly walked up to Gu Kai and said, "You go quickly, I'll come here."
After that, he poked his daughter again: "You go too!"
It was too late to go upstairs, let alone the top floor. The ground must be frozen hard at this time.
Shen Cong simply took out the soil from the backyard from the space and put it directly into the pot found by her mother.
Gu Kai was in the living room and temporarily produced a pot of ginger.
"Let's do this first, you'll spawn some peppers later." The old man obviously didn't think it was enough.
But he didn't dare to delay any longer.
"Come down with me, send ginger from family to family! As long as you are sure that someone lives, smash the door and open it for me!"
After the old man said, he walked in front.
It was only after he left that everyone realized the seriousness of the matter.
Many people in this building escaped from outside, so it's hard to say whether there are winter clothes at home.
If the original household were better, if it was from outside, such weather... It would be good if
people were frozen before dawn.
Everyone didn't bother to ask any more questions, they all wrapped their thickest clothes around their bodies, distributed a bag of ginger and dried chili peppers to each of them, and started slamming doors one by one from top to bottom!
In fact, most of the households have been woken up by the freeze.
Many people are still in a state of confusion, not sure what the hell is going on in this weather?
Because they had exchanged vegetables upstairs before, no one in the whole building did not know the Shen family, so after Shen Cong and the others reported their own door, they basically opened the door as soon as they knocked on the door.
The people who opened the door had everything to wear, and they wanted to wrap everything they could.
But even so, he couldn't stop shivering.
"Do you have any ginger or chili peppers at home?" After knocking on the door, everyone in the Shen family asked the same thing.
If the other party answers "yes", then they will tell someone to boil ginger tea immediately. If it is too late, they will cut a few slices of ginger and chew it hard.
If the other party answered "no", they would shove the ginger and chili they brought into the hands of their neighbors.
When I first saw them, almost every neighbor was stunned and completely unable to enter the situation.
It was not until Shen Cong and the others showed them the thermometer and repeatedly stressed that they should keep warm, everyone realized that the extremely cold weather might be coming soon.
This is where it got to a state of tension.
Because they made a lot of noise, before they reached the fifteenth floor, the neighbors on the bottom floor had already run up.
After listening to their words, a few people in thick clothes and strong bodies also took ginger and chili peppers from them and distributed them to the floor below spontaneously...
Fortunately, the old man responded quickly enough.
Although at the time of the release, a few households had knocked on the door for a long time before someone opened it, and it could be seen that the people inside had been freezing enough, and it might be dangerous to wake up a little later.
But in general, the neighbors upstairs and downstairs at least did not wake up in this cold night.
Because some of the neighbors in the building have stocks, those ginger and peppers were not fully distributed.
Gu Kai and Xie Benliang on the thirteenth floor called a few neighbors who were in good health and went to other buildings with the remaining supplies.
Shen Cong and the others went home.
It was only three o'clock in the evening at this time.
But after running in such a circle, the whole family lost sleep.
Father Shen stayed at home to make the stove just now, and didn't go downstairs. The stove was already on now. Although the radiator wasn't hot yet, it was a little warm.
Seeing them coming back, Father Shen brought down the hot and sour soup boiled on the stove, and came over and gave a bowl to each of them.
It stands to reason that it is best to drink a bowl of ginger soup at this time, but Father Shen does not like to eat ginger by nature, so when cooking at home, ginger must be cut into large pieces.
You have to be able to pick it out, so you won't accidentally eat it in your mouth.
When making dumplings, you can only use ginger powder at home, never minced ginger.
Therefore, he stayed at home to make soup, and it was impossible to drink ginger soup.
When the big black bowl was brought up, Shen Cong first smelled the smell of vinegar, she subconsciously tilted her head back and asked, "Dad, what are you putting in here?"
"Can you? What to put? Vinegar, soy sauce, pepper, eggs, sesame oil. I beat three eggs! Hurry up and drink them all!"
Father Shen said, and then filled a large bowl and handed it to his in-laws.
Then he stood in front of the dining table, with a posture of "I'm staring at you to see who dares to give me a sip".
Shen Cong helplessly closed his eyes and took a gulp.
Then I smack the smell, and think...not bad!
At the same time, the old man also gave an "um" and praised: "Jianyi's soup is good, not worse than his younger brother and sister's craftsmanship!"
"That is, I just don't like to make it, and if I really do it, there is nothing wrong with her mother. It's up." Father Shen said proudly.
"Okay, then you will cook the meals from now on. I wish I had nothing to do with me." Cheng Ru laughed.
Everyone joked and laughed, and then they all drank the bowl of hot and sour egg soup.
After Gu Kai came back, Shen Cong was afraid that he would not get enough to eat, so he took out an oil cake from the space and let him eat it with the soup.
Then, a large bowl of soup and an oil cake, Gu Kai ate it in a few mouthfuls, and sweat broke out from his forehead.
As the radiator heats up, the temperature in the room finally rises slowly.
When the room temperature reaches 15 degrees, everyone feels a lot more comfortable. At least there is no such feeling that the calves and feet are cold and sore.
"Everyone, let's go to bed. I'll talk about it tomorrow. It's still early!" Father Shen and Mother Shen packed the dishes and chopsticks into the kitchen together, and then told everyone.
"I'll wash the dishes." Gu Kai was the last one to finish his meal, so he consciously followed.
"No need for you, go to bed quickly! Tomorrow our whole family will be sure that you are the busiest, go to bed!" Cheng Ru resolutely kicked him out.
Gu Kai looked at Shen Cong and wanted to say something.
Shen Cong waved at him directly: "Don't worry about me, you go to bed quickly, you are the key protection target of our family now, go and rest."
Gu Kai was amused by her words, but he continued to ask: "Then What about you?"
"I found the clothes. Not only for our family, but also for Shichen and the others to find some clothes, otherwise they won't be able to leave the house tomorrow."
"Not only Shichen, but also Jiashu and Weiyan! They No thick clothes." Cheng Ru added loudly in the kitchen.
Shen Cong's hand paused and immediately realized the seriousness of this matter.
Why not!
Jiashu escaped from the earthquake, Weiyan arrived from Qingzhou from the capital in the summer, and they were 100% without winter clothes.
In such a cold day, I can't find it directly for Frozen!
Wei Yan is fine, but there is no way.
Being a soldier is naturally where the post is and where is the person.
But what about the tree?
The thought of Jiashu's insistence on going back to the community made Shen Cong's teeth itch with anger.
"Forget it, let him run around!" She complained out of anger.
"What nonsense?" Cheng Ru had already finished washing the dishes and came out.
She wiped her hands and said, "Don't talk nonsense, hurry up and pack some things out, and let your dad run at dawn. It's not a trouble if you're really cold and ill? Shouldn't we be worried then?"
"What should I bring? , and take something, go directly to catch the person back! I will go with my dad tomorrow, and if he doesn't come back, I will use an iron chain to lock him back!" The more Shen Cong thought about it, the more angry he became.
I had to go before because of the flood, and I wanted to see and protect the public's belongings, so I won't say anything.
Now that the water has receded, what are you still doing there?
The stinky boy came back early, isn't there so much to do?
Hearing what she said, not to mention Shen's father and Shen's mother, even Old Master Gu laughed along.
No one said that what Shen Cong said was wrong, everyone acquiesced to her idea -
tie the worry-free guy back with iron chains!
Gu Kai woke up at six in the morning.
Before Shi Chen and the others came to the door, he sent them the clothes he had found at home in advance.
He glanced out the window as he went out, but couldn't see anything.
Because there is heating in the room, a thick layer of frost has formed on the windows, wrapping the whole piece of glass tightly.
The moment he opened the door, he was shivering with cold, and he leaned back subconsciously, almost shrinking back.
it's too cold!
Although there is no thermometer, Gu Kai feels that the temperature in this stairwell has definitely dropped below zero.
Just as Gu Kai went out, he didn't even go to the opposite side, when the door over there opened.
Seeing him, Shi Chen and Liu Xiaofeng, wrapped in quilts, ran out together and took the clothes from his hand.
The two of them didn't even bother to talk to Gu Kaiduo, they grabbed their clothes and wrapped them around their bodies.
"It's too cold! Brother, do you know how many degrees it is now? It's minus five degrees! Yesterday it was over thirty degrees, and it's dropped forty degrees all of a sudden. It's going to kill you!
" After getting dressed, Liu Xiaofeng finally calmed down.
He didn't know what time he got up in the morning, probably because he was full of words and didn't know who to talk to.
Now that he is a little warmer, he starts to babble.
Following his words, clumps of white air exhaled from his mouth.
"There are still extra stoves at home. We moved back from the community. You and Shi Chen will move over two later, one upstairs and one downstairs. In such weather, there is no heating equipment at home, and it is impossible to survive."
Gu Kai didn't talk to him, he put down his clothes and went back first.
When he got home, Shen Cong and Shen's father also got up.
Although I slept late last night, there was something in my heart and no one could sleep in.
What's more, they also discussed that they would go back to the community today to capture the family tree.
Because the old man specially told Gu Kai yesterday to let him stay at home today and continue to produce ginger and chili peppers, so he couldn't go back to the community with him.
As the weather gets colder and colder, it is definitely impossible to prepare winter clothes for everyone with personal strength.
But it can still be done by giving you some ginger and chili to provide you with as little heat as possible.
What's more, the old man has to cook cold soup at home to distribute to the neighbors today. This is also a manual job, and someone must help.
Because everyone slept late yesterday, no one got up to cook in the morning.
Shen Cong took out a pot of ginger, angelica and mutton soup that Cheng Ru had simmered before, and filled a large bowl for each person.
In addition to ginger and angelica, Cheng Ru also put red dates and yam in the soup, which wards off cold and nourishes.
After drinking a large bowl, the whole person is warmed from the inside to the outside.
After drinking the soup and eating the matching pancakes, Shen Cong and Shen's father didn't delay much at home, they wrapped a duck down jacket and went on their way.
Although they felt the chill as soon as they got out of the house, they didn't realize what a biting chill was until they went downstairs.
Even if they were prepared, both of them wrapped scarves and hats, but as soon as they came out of the building and were blown by the cold wind, the two of them suddenly felt that their whole faces were numb.
Talking is a bit stumped.
"Hurry up, the car won't start any time later." Father Shen immediately realized the seriousness of the matter, tugged at his daughter, and the two walked quickly to the outside of the community.
Although it hasn't snowed yet, the two of them can feel the soil under their feet freezing through their thick winter boots.
The biting chill ran up the soles of the shoes.
You must know that because the flood has not receded for a long time, the water content in the soil is high, and it has been soft and collapsed.
If you step hard or walk a few times, the ground will easily turn into muddy ground.
Okay, now it's frozen.
Fortunately, because the weather suddenly changed, there were not many pedestrians outside at this time.
After finding a remote place, Shen Cong took out the car from the space.
The car was placed in the space before, and there is no need to preheat at this moment. The two got on the car at the fastest speed, and then rushed to the community.
They encountered a few cars on the road, but they should be very afraid of such weather, and those cars did not drive fast.
There are several others, which just turned off on the road while driving.
Shen Cong didn't dare to slow down along the way, for fear that if he didn't pay attention, the car would also turn off, which would be a big trouble.
Fortunately, they were lucky, and perhaps because the car was not placed outside before, and it was not frozen, they were finally able to return to the community safely.
Speaking of which, they haven't come back for more than three months since it started to rain, so much so that the guards at the gate almost didn't recognize them when they saw them.
Shen Cong rolled down the car window and shouted at the guard, "Xiao Qian, you don't know me anymore?" Xiao Qian
was startled when she heard her voice!
He quickly ran over to look in the car, and then said, "Sister Shen, Uncle Shen, why are you back at this time? It's so cold, is it freezing?"
"It's not as cold as you guys, it's your hard work."
Shen Cong said with emotion, looking at the military coat wrapped around him, and the obviously thin coat under the military coat.
"It's alright, we'll change the guard in a while. It's so bad that we can't stay outside at all." Xiao Qian said, pulling away the railing as quickly as possible.
"Sister, hurry in, don't wait for the car to stop running."
Shen Cong waved at him, and without saying more, drove directly into the community.
At this time, a thick layer of ice has condensed outside the car, and everything is a little blurry.
In addition, it was too cold outside, so Shen Cong naturally closed the window immediately after speaking.
So much so that she didn't hear the words Xiao Qian shouted at her from behind.
She drove the car directly to her door and got out of the car with her father.
Before getting out of the car, the two immediately felt that the temperature must have dropped again.
It is estimated that it must be below minus ten degrees at this time.
When Bac Ninh is the coldest, the body feels like this.
And it won't be so windy.
As soon as you get out of the car, you feel like you're going to be blown away.
The father and daughter supported each other and walked to their house, only to realize that the house that Liu Tuan had told them before was not destroyed at all, that was a lie.
I don't know if it was Wei Yan or Liu Tuan who deliberately said that to comfort their hearts.
