Chapter 111-116

Chapter 111

The door of the house was clearly damaged.

It can be seen that all the previous gaps have been plastered with cement, and the door has been sealed.

Then after the water receded, the closed door was knocked on again, and some people entered.

There are water marks on both the fence and the gate.

The key must be useless, the door was sealed and pried open, and it was already out of shape after being flooded.

However, this is also a normal phenomenon. Both Shen Cong and Shen's father have seen many of the same situations, and they have long since seen it.

With Shen Cong's ability, any kind of iron door seemed to be softly wrapped around her fingers, and she opened the door without much effort.

After entering the door, the two found that the yard was unusually clean, apparently cleaned by someone.

Although the soil in the yard was also frozen, it could be seen that the previous flooding was not serious.

This also indirectly proves that what Wei Yan and Liu Tuan said is a little more reliable.

"There must be water in the courtyard, but it's just because the outside is tightly blocked, so not many people come in, and after the rain stopped, someone came in to clean it up." Shen Cong looked at it and said.

"It's not the water coming in from the door, it's obviously rainwater seeping down from the roof. Wei Yan and the others have worked hard for this house."

Father Shen pointed to the tin roof above the roof. exclaimed.

No matter where the water came from, it's very fortunate to see that the family's house did not suffer any major damage in the flood.

"Dad, where does Jiashu live? Didn't he say he lives in a community? It doesn't look like someone lives in this house?"

Shen Cong looked at the yard again and asked.

When it was raining heavily, Jiashu once asked Weiyan to tell the family that he had moved back to the community and it was safe, so his family should not worry about him.

So this time, Shen Cong and the others went straight to the villa.

Since Jiashu is in the community, it must be living in his own home!

Unexpectedly, there was no one at home.

Not only is there no one, there is not even a trace of anyone living there at all.

"Go to the property and ask." Father Shen said.

Before he could finish speaking, a voice rang out from outside the house.

"Sister Cong Cong, are you back?"

It was Sun Qing.

"Ask Sun Qing." Shen Cong said and went out.

I haven't seen each other for a few months, and Sun Qing has lost weight again. The small face that was originally small is now so thin that there is not even a trace of flesh.

There are only a pair of big eyes left on the whole face, and looking at it makes people feel distressed.

Seeing her like this, Shen Cong quickly took a few steps, took her hand, and asked, "Sun Qing, why have you lost so much weight? The family has run out of food?"

"No, no!" Sun Qing hurriedly shook her head: " My family has a lot of food, sister, you don't have to worry about me."

Shen Congcai didn't believe her nonsense.

She looks like she can collapse when the wind blows, like she has surplus food at home?

She still wanted to ask a few more questions. Sun Qing obviously didn't want to continue this topic. She turned to look at her father Shen who was following her, smiled and said, "Uncle, it's such a cold day, you and my sister are here for a trip. Looking for Gu Jiashu?"

"Do you know where he is?" Father Shen asked quickly.

"He's looking for firewood. It's cold when it's cold these days. There's not enough firewood, so everyone in the yard went out to look for it."

"Where did he live before, do you know?"

Seeing that Sun Qing didn't want to talk about food , Shen Cong didn't ask any more, but asked about the family tree.

"He and their well-drilling team have been living in my house before, and I rented half of the house to them. Sister, go to my house and wait for him with your uncle. They should be back soon."

"Live at your house?" Shen Cong was very surprised.

But Father Shen seemed to understand the reason, and nodded: "Is your house flooded?"

"It's also flooded, but it's not too serious. Just a little water on the first floor, it can be used on the second floor and above." Sun Qing replied.

After listening to the conversation between his father and Sun Qing, Shen Cong remembered with hindsight that his parents had said before that the Sun family's villa was at the highest and best location in the community.

Their row is built on a small gentle slope, if there is a submerged place in the whole community, it must be their row.

It appears to be so.

While several people were talking, Lao Cao had already received Xin'er and ran over.

Both he and Shi Lei came from the upper floors. When they escaped from the upper floors, they didn't have time to pick up any clothes.

So what I'm wearing now is patchwork.

There was a military coat on the outside, but inside the military coat was only a white shirt that had been washed and changed its color.

Below is a pair of sweatpants.

I ran all the way, and my lips were frozen purple.

"Captain Cao, stop talking here, go to my house first."

Seeing Lao Cao, Sun Qing hurriedly said without waiting for him to speak.

Lao Cao didn't refuse, he nodded quickly, and pointed to the road ahead: "Let's go, now the whole courtyard is your warmest home!" After

that, he pulled Shen's father, but he held him affectionately. He raised his arm and said, "Uncle, let's go together. I've already called someone to look for the family tree, and I'll be back in a while. Let's go to Xiaosun's house and wait for a while." Even

though he was wearing a military coat, he was still hot. No. As he spoke, he pressed hard against Father Shen's body.

Father Shen was amused and amused by him. He tore off the scarf around his neck and wrapped it around his head: "I have never seen you so intimate with me. Are you very cold?

" When it was exposed, Lao Cao was not ashamed, and he laughed along with him.

Sun Qing's family was not damaged much during the earthquake.

Although she didn't live here very much before, and she didn't have many clothes, her parents' clothes were all there.

So at this time, she was wrapped in a long black down jacket, which was wide and big, like a quilt, covering her from head to toe.

Shen Cong glanced at the logo and recognized that it was the very expensive goose down jacket that was said to be able to wear to the North Pole, and then he didn't ask anything.

Knowing that this girl is definitely not short of clothes, at least.

This was the first time Shen Cong came to Sun Qing's house.

Her home and her own are also three-story buildings, with a rooftop on the top floor.

But her house is bigger than her own, and the yard is bigger.

Even if there is no backyard, the area of ​​the front yard is very large.

The yard had indeed been flooded before, and now there are still marks left by the flooding on the ground.

But the water was cleaned up, and the yard has been re-arranged with rows of wooden racks.

But there are no more boxes for growing vegetables on the shelf, and it is obvious that they have been carried into the house ahead of time.

Sun Qing took the lead, and several people entered the house together.

After entering the house, the most conspicuous thing I saw was the various pieces of wood that were piled up in most of the living room.

There are sun-dried branches, few dried leaves, and other than that, they are all miscellaneous trees that were exchanged from the junkyard at first sight.

There are broken window frames, door frames, small pieces of scraps from building a house, and piles of shredded paper that have been sorted out.

And in the farthest corner from those fuels, there was an enamel washbasin on the ground with a small amount of broken wood and a small flame burning.

Although the fire wasn't that big, as soon as I entered the house, I felt a distinct warmth.

This is probably related to the fact that when the house was renovated before, the doors and windows were made of good materials and the sealing was very good.

,

"You bought this?" Shen Cong looked at the pile of wood and asked in surprise.

"No! This girl was crazy a while ago.

It was fine when it rained, but as soon as the rain stopped, she adjusted all the vegetables and grains at home, took it out and exchanged these things with others.

Not only that, she He even rented out half of the house in the family. The rent

does not require food or vegetables, but fuel! No, the people in the well drilling team have nothing to do now, and run around the world every day to pick up firewood for her. "

Even though Lao Cao talks about this now, he still has a speechless expression on his face.

"At that time, everyone in the courtyard said she was crazy. Shi Lei and I even came to talk to her. She said that you said it, so please prepare more fuel."

Lao Cao said and looked at Shen Cong with a face His admiration: "Hey, Xiao Shen, who can compare with your brain? You are really a prophet!

" It’s also dry, and the bugs are making trouble, so it’s not going to get cold this time with the rain?”

For fear that Lao Cao would say something strange, Father Shen quickly stopped him.

Not only did Lao Cao not feel wrong for such a refutation, but he also nodded vigorously.

"Uncle Shen, you're right at all! When we went to our house, Xiao Shen told us something similar.

But I'm telling the truth. We've all experienced those disasters before. But experience comes from experience, who can think of it from this. Next step?

Xiao Shen's brain is so smart, I would never have thought of killing him. "

"If you can't think of it, just follow what the wise man says." When Sister Gonggong said that she was going to prepare, both of you captains were there, who did you blame for not listening? "

Sun Qing still remembers what the people in the yard said when he went to change the fuel, those sneers.

Hearing old Cao's old remarks at this moment, he is also a little annoyed. What

he said is a bit unpleasant.

" Yes, yes, or you understand. "Old Cao didn't care about her.

Instead, he looked at Father Shen and Shen Cong again: "Uncle Shen, Xiao Shen, do you think it can be colder today?" It's down to zero today! "

"What do you think?" "Shen Cong didn't answer the question.

Lao Cao didn't say a word.

What is there to ask?

At this time, the cold wind was howling outside the house, and the sky was blown gray-yellow by the wind and sand.

In such a short time, the temperature has obviously dropped a lot. Although Sun Qing 's

house doesn't have a thermometer, and he can't tell how many degrees it is, his body sense can't deceive anyone.

"There is a stove upstairs in my house, and there is a bag of fuel. If it can't stand it, you can take it down and use it. Let people live at home.

No way, let's live at home.

My house was originally used to grow vegetables, and it was equipped with heaters, which made it more resistant to cold than other places. "

Looking at the sky outside, Father Shen's heart became heavier and heavier, and his brows were always furrowed.

He did not answer Lao Cao's words, but looked out the window and said slowly.

Sun Qing had actually told the community about this before . I said it, but Lao Cao and Shi Lei decided not to use

it for now.

At this moment, when Father Shen mentioned it again, he was not polite, nodded and said, "Okay." The

atmosphere in the room suddenly became dull.

The family tree was called back ten minutes later.

He was not as embarrassed as the Shen family thought, at least he was wearing a thick woolen coat.

The coat was a bit old fashioned, but it was of good texture and looked windproof.

Seeing Father Shen and Shen Cong, the family tree was like a lonely traveler who finally saw the light, so he rushed over and hugged Father Shen directly.

"Uncle, you all remember me! If you don't come, I will freeze to death!"

His tall man, over 1.8 meters tall, rushed over from afar, hugging Father Shen backwards. several steps.

Moreover, the old man didn't expect that the damaged child would rush over like this. He was completely unprepared for a while, and was held by him for a long time without saying a word.

Shen Cong snorted, and grabbed the family tree by the collar and pulled him off his father's body.

"Don't you want to go home? You know you miss us now? You're too embarrassed to say it? Just waiting for us to pick you up, right?"

The more Shen Cong said, the more angry he became.

Jiashu didn't get angry when his sister-in-law grabbed and scolded him like this, and he smiled and didn't refute.

But Father Shen couldn't see it.

With his distressed hand, he snorted on Jiashu's head: "This face is frozen blue! How long have you been out?"

"Not for a while."

Jiashu raised the plastic bag still in his hand. , said with a wry smile: "I just found so little grass, how long can I go out?"

Shen Cong grabbed the bag from his hand and put it in Sun Qing, then said: "Don't say more, hurry up, I see this It 's going to snow."

Hearing what she said, several people all looked out the window together, and the more they looked, the more worried they became.

Without a word, Jiashu took off the coat he was wearing and handed it to Sun Qing: "Thank you, if it wasn't for my uncle's clothes, I would have lost half of my life today."

Sun Qing took it and nodded at him, no Say more.

Putting on the jacket that Father Shen handed him, Jiashu returned to his room and packed his luggage as quickly as possible.

Then he told Sun Qing a few words to other colleagues in the well drilling team, and a few people quickly left Sun's house.

At this moment, time is life, and no one dared to say a word of nonsense. The three of them got into the car and started to rush back at the fastest speed.

The electric car was only parked outside for half an hour, and it took a lot of effort to start it again.

After finally starting it up, Shen Cong found that half of the electricity was lost at once.

Her heart suddenly became uneasy.

If only she and her father were there, in case the car stalled on the road, you could put the car back in the space and get a new one.

But now the family tree is also in the car, it is impossible to even change the car, what will happen next is really resigned to fate.

Because I was driving my own car today, Shen Cong was more familiar with it, so she was the one who drove it on the return trip.

Father Shen and Jiashu both sat in the back.

The family tree was really freezing outside just now, and even if he got into the car, he couldn't control his shivering.

This is easy to understand.

Although he borrowed a coat from Sun Qing, he still wore his own clothes.

It's just a short-sleeved T-shirt and a pair of trousers for summer. It's strange that it doesn't freeze through.

Seeing the clothes he was wearing, Father Shen felt very distressed, and couldn't help complaining: "How dare you run out of your clothes like this? If it's frostbite, it won't be cured in the future!"

He said, from behind the car seat Take out the blanket prepared in advance and surround the family tree.

The family tree was adjusted by the old man, and he sighed comfortably in the corner.

Hearing Shen's father saying that he wears less clothes, he explained more or less: "Uncle, I am lucky, Sun Qing has her father's clothes at home, and she is willing to take them out for us to wear.

How many other people don't have any thick clothes and can't even go out the door! Do

n't look at Lao Cao wearing a military coat, there are only two in their entire property, which is the original property before the earthquake. There is one.

One is for the doorman, and the other is for whoever goes out. If he wears it out, no one else can go out.

At this temperature, even if you don’t go out, you can freeze people to death in the room!”

He said, pointing to the bag he threw in the front seat: "I just left all the clothes and blankets to the people in our team.

If I don't leave it, they will be able to survive tonight."

Speaking of which, Jiashu himself seemed to realize that something was wrong, he smiled and said to Shen Cong: "Sister-in-law, I have nothing left, so I went to go to you all naked.

You have to take care of me. I'll live, otherwise I'll have nothing to do."

Shen Cong rolled her eyes hard at the rearview mirror, why didn't she know that Gu Jiashu was so cheeky before?

But she also understood in her heart that the reason why Jiashu said that was actually holding on.

In fact, he is still the person with a delicate mind and is very afraid of causing trouble to others.

Although what he said was in a joking tone, he was actually speaking from the heart.

He understands better than anyone else that if his family doesn't come today, his days in the future will be very difficult.

Shen Cong didn't want to continue this topic, she didn't want to listen to the words that this cousin said to show weakness, she felt uncomfortable when she heard it.

She asked, "How many people are there in your well drilling team? What kind of people are they? She lives in Sun Qing's house. She is a little girl, is it inconvenient?"

"Not only our well drilling team, but Sun Qing also The house was rented to two families in the courtyard.

There is one sister-in-law you should know, the one with a little girl? That girl lived with Sun Qing before."

"I know, I have an impression. How could they not Moved?"

"Their family is unlucky. It's only been so long since they moved to the apartment, and the apartment was flooded.

They wanted a house on the first floor, the whole house was soaked in water, and everything in the house was destroyed. , what if we don't move out?

The other family was also flooded, and the two families rented Sun Qing's house together."

Jiashu said and reported the name of another family.

This family is not familiar with Shen Cong, but they know that they moved in with Shi Lei and the others, and they are the old people in the courtyard.

These two families could see that Sun Qing had chosen them as tenants, and they should all belong to more reliable families.

Knowing that the little girl now has the ability to protect herself, Shen Cong's mind was finally relieved.

After driving out for half an hour, snowflakes were falling outside the window.

It started with small snow particles, fine and dense, hitting the windowpane with a crackling sound.

Then it got bigger and bigger.

From one snowflake, one by one, it slowly became a piece, and soon it became a goose feather snow.

The road on the ground became potholes after the blisters, and then quickly froze, and the ground was almost impossible to walk.

There are large and small pits everywhere along the way, and there is no way to hide.

The people sitting in the car were like sitting in bumper cars, and they couldn't sit still when they were shaken.

Everyone felt so bad at the time, that the road was too strenuous to drive.

But when the heavy snow came so suddenly, Shen Cong felt that the road just now was too smooth.

It's just a little bit, at least it's not scary!

The electric car was a little floating when it started, and the chassis was unstable.

This snow is almost slippery at any time, but if there is a small slope, it will slide down uncontrollably.

Shen Cong's feet were on the accelerator, and his whole body was stiff, and he didn't dare to move at all.

"Sister-in-law, let me go." The relaxed expression on Jiashu's face disappeared completely, he lifted the blanket on his body and said to Shen Cong.

Shen Cong didn't dare to be brave at all at this moment, she slowly parked the car to one side, and quickly changed positions with Jiashu.

Jiashu drives more steadily than Shen, at least not as flustered as she is.

But in such weather, no matter how good the technology is, sometimes it is useless.

About another half an hour or so, the snow got heavier.

The snow in the sky can no longer be described by goose feathers. They are all condensed into pieces, like pieces of clouds pressing down from the sky.

The sky was getting darker and darker. Although it was only ten o'clock in the morning, it looked like it was five or six in the afternoon, and it was about to get dark.

Suddenly, a large flake of snow flew straight towards the front window of the car!

All of a sudden the glass of the car was smeared.

Jiashu was so frightened that he stepped on the brakes to the bottom, the wheels rubbed against the ground making a harsh sound, everyone rushed forward, and the car finally stopped.

Jiashu took out a towel from the passenger's drawer and ran out, wiping it on the glass.

But after wiping it a few times, it didn't work at all.

Seeing this situation, Shen Cong also hurried out and handed over a small shovel that was just made.

Jiashu couldn't even think about where the shovel came from, so he took it and shoveled it hard.

In just a minute or two, the snow had frozen into ice cubes, sticking to the window glass, and no amount of shovel could shovel it off.

Shen Cong couldn't, so he had to open the car door again as a cover, took out a thermos full of hot water from the space, and poured it directly towards the car glass.

The water was scalding hot, but Shen Cong had no idea when it was poured. I wonder if this would work?

Hot and cold, will the glass explode?

If the temperature is so low, will the water freeze instantly?

But now there is no time to think about it.

After the water was poured, a white mist was aroused, and the ice frozen on the glass did soften a little.

And this is enough, the family tree has shoveled down a large piece at the fastest speed.

Barely guaranteed to be able to see what's going on outside from the driver's seat.

"Get in the car!" he shouted at Shen Cong.

Chapter 112 (1)

The two quickly got into the car.

The family tree started the car again.

For such a short time, the car seemed to be completely frozen. He stepped on the accelerator to the bottom and still did not move.

"Let's go down and push the cart?" Father Shen couldn't sit still.

"Sister-in-law, come and drive, my uncle and I will push down." Jiashu made a decisive decision.

But even if someone was pushing the car behind, the car still couldn't start at all, as if it was dead, with no response at all.

On the contrary, Father Shen and the family tree, who were standing outside the car, were too cold to carry it.

"Still can't move?" Father Shen shouted loudly, knocking on the window.

His hair and eyebrows were all covered with snow, his eyes were squinted and he couldn't open them at all, and the hand that knocked on the window was purplish red and curled up as if he couldn't stretch it out.

Shen Cong knew that it was time to make a decision.

She has to get another car out of the space, otherwise, in such weather, if you stay outside for another minute, you will be in danger for another minute.

Jiashu is her own no matter what, she believes in his character.

What's more, life is very important at this time, as for other things, we can only think about it later.

"Dad, let's change the car." Shen Cong said, took out the car key, opened the door and walked out.

Hearing what she said, Father Shen was stunned for a moment, but he opened his mouth but didn't say anything to stop him.

Obviously, he also thought of what Shen Cong thought of, and he thought the same thing as his daughter.

Coming out of the cab, Shen Cong shivered suddenly.

She raised her head and looked at the sky, and found that the sky has become much darker after so much effort.

If you wait any longer, it will be dark soon.

And the snow that hit the body no longer felt like snowflakes, it was like smashed ice, hitting the face and hurting the neck.

"Sister-in-law, why did you get down too?"

Jiashu didn't know what the father and daughter were thinking, and when he saw Shen Cong also got out of the car, he was in a hurry.

In such weather, it is really fatal for the car to break down on the road. If you don't work hard to the last minute, who would dare to give up?

He trotted over from behind the car, looking anxious.

The current situation of Jiashu is even worse than that of Father Shen.

Even his eyelashes were frozen, and his cheeks were flushed red from the wind, as if he was about to bleed.

"You stay behind."

Before Shen Cong could speak, Father Shen grabbed the family tree and pulled him to his side.

And Shen Cong didn't have time to explain to him, so he directly took the car into the space.

She thought about it while changing cars.

Don't talk about people on the road at this moment, there is not even a car within sight.

It is estimated that even in the city, the situation is not much better than it is now.

In this case, there is no need to worry about what others think, safety first.

So instead of taking out her father's electric car, she took out the small off-road vehicle that Shen's father had driven.

Before, because I lived in the countryside, I occasionally had to climb a mountain and catch a fish. When Shen's father bought a car, he bought an off-road vehicle.

It consumes a little more fuel, but it is more convenient and durable than ordinary family cars to go on a mountain road.

The tires, the chassis, and the weather are much more practical than electric vehicles.

Seeing his daughter take out his car, Father Shen was refreshed, opened the car door without a word, and said, "You all sit in the back, I'll drive it!"

Jiashu was stunned.

It's like being stupid to stand there.

He didn't even hear Father Shen's cry, and stayed still.

Jiashu couldn't believe what he saw with his eyes -

just in a blink of an eye, the car disappeared!

Another dazzling, the car came out again!

Got another one!

Jiashu felt that there might be a problem with his brain being frozen.

what weather is this?

No matter how surprised he was, no one could give him time to digest.

Shen Cong didn't even look at his dazed face, dragged his arm directly to the front of the car, and ordered, "Go up!"

Only then did Jiashu react.

After the car enters the space, it will remain in the state when it was first put in.

When it was just put in, it was when Father Shen and Gu Kai went to the gas station to buy gasoline.

So the fuel tank of this car is full, not to mention, and because it has just been maintained before, it is in excellent condition.

Even though the outside was dripping into ice at this time, the car itself was not frozen, and the process was still very silky when it was started, and it hit it all at once.

Because the temperature outside was too low, the three of them were cold again just now. Father Shen didn't dare to save gasoline at the moment, so he turned on the heating when he got in the car.

Soon the temperature inside the car increased a lot.

Although it can't be compared to usual, but at least sitting in the car no longer hurts from the cold.

After getting into the car, Jiashu became very silent, except for taking off his hat, patting the snow on his body, and then leaning on the back seat of the car without moving or saying a word.

The people looked dumb.

Shen Cong didn't say anything.

It's not that she doesn't want to say it, it's mainly that she doesn't know how to explain this space to Jiashu for a while.

Originally, the person from Jiashu was a little sensitive, and if he knew that he had space but had been hiding it from him for so long, wouldn't that make him feel like an outsider even more?

Shen Cong also leaned back in the seat and remained silent, and the car became very quiet for a while.

All that was left was the dull crackle of the snow flakes hitting the car glass.

Father Shen looked behind him from the rearview mirror, and there was a faint worry in his eyes.

But at this time, he should focus all his attention on the outside of the car, and he has no extra energy to think about other things.

It took a while for the family tree to respond.

He sat up straight, quietly touched Shen Cong with his arm, and asked in a low voice, "Sister-in-law, have you awakened two powers?"

Shen Cong looked at him and nodded, "Yeah."

Jiashu Looking at her, there was a bit of caution in her expression: "That was a space ability just now, isn't your ability awakened earlier than that metal ability?"

Shen Cong nodded again.

Jiashu understood so well, and she didn't even know how to explain it.

Facing her silence, Jiashu was silent again.

Then he looked at her and said seriously: "Don't worry, sister-in-law, I won't tell anyone about this. I know that this is the foundation of our family."

His words "our family" made Shen Conghe live in Father Shen, who was driving in front, was all relieved.

Shen Cong just sat up straight, stared into his eyes, and asked softly, "I haven't told you about this before, will you be angry?" A

hint of surprise flashed in Jiashu's eyes: "What's the point of this? Angry? You didn't tell me, but you didn't miss me?

The food, drink, and the earliest food that Shi Chen Cancan and I ate, including the current clothes, were all stored in the space by you early on. in?"

Jiashu said, patted the jacket he was wearing.

At the same time as he spoke, he had already connected a lot of things before.

The food that saves lives at a critical time, everything can be turned out, like a storage room where everything is hidden, as well as fine food and various tools that pop up from time to time at home...

Now think about it, everything is clear.

Thinking about the old days, and looking at my sister-in-law looking at her with a little nervous expression, Jiashu's heart is full of feelings.

What right does he have to be angry?

Whether it's brother-in-law or uncle, including the sister-in-law's family, who is sorry for himself?

No, not at all.

Not only not, but they all treat him with sincerity.

As he said, although his sister-in-law didn't tell him about the space, he was helped by his family.

When he was in the hardest and most difficult times and could not survive, it was his family who helped him through the difficulties.

Just like now, if it wasn't for his sister-in-law and Uncle Shen who came to pick him up, it would be predictable without even thinking about the suffering in the future.

Then again, what time is it?

Now as long as there is a little material, it is life!

Who doesn't hide the life-saving capital?

One less person to know, one less risk.

Wouldn't it be difficult to hide it and speak it all over the world with a loudspeaker?

Unless crazy.

Therefore, not only did Jiashu not feel a little angry at all, he was grateful with all his heart at the moment.

I am grateful that my family did not give up on him at such a time, and I am grateful to my sister-in-law for showing such an important secret in front of him.

Thinking about it, his eyes turned red all of a sudden.

Shen Cong didn't know what kind of mental journey Jiashu went through.

She saw that the guy first assured her that the secret would never be told to others, and then his eyes turned red.

Before she could persuade him, he turned his head and wiped away his tears.

Shen Cong looked at him, not knowing what to say for a while.

Want to persuade, but do not know where to persuade?

In fact, she doesn't have much experience in dealing with Jiashu.

After thinking about it, she simply took out a box of fried rice cakes from the space and handed them over: "Do you want to eat?"

This rice cake was fried by Cheng Ru on New Year's Day.

The rice cakes were made from the rice they grew at home, steamed together with the glutinous rice flour they had stockpiled before, and put them in a pot. Father Shen and Shi Chen took turns to knead them. It took a long time to knead them.

The two men were strong and willing to work hard, and the rice cakes they kneaded were dense and glutinous.

Speaking of which, the reason why I thought of making rice cakes was that Jiashu said something.

During the Mid-Autumn Festival dinner, he said: "When our rice is grown, how about steaming rice cakes and eating them? I haven't eaten that for a long time, and I'm suddenly greedy."

When he was talking, Shi Chen laughed at him and said He didn't understand anything, rice couldn't make rice cakes, he had to use glutinous rice.

The two also had a series of thoughts about where to change the glutinous rice.

At that time, the two of them said it casually, but they didn't really take it to heart.

But Cheng Ru was concerned.

It took a lot of effort to make it on New Year's Day, just to let Jiashu and other children eat something fresh.

As a result, the family tree has not returned.

For this reason, Shi Chen met him several times later, and every time he saw him, he would deliberately show off, making him so angry that he lost his temper.

At this moment, looking at the rice cakes that were suddenly brought in front of him, Jiashu was a little stunned.

The outer layer of the rice cake was fried to a browned shell, but the bottom was still snow-white. Just by looking at the outside, you can see that it is crispy on the outside and glutinous on the inside.

This rice cake is made very finely, not only is it fried fragrantly, but the rice cake is also sprinkled with soybean flour and drizzled with brown sugar juice.

I don't know how Shen Cong did it. At this time, the box was still steaming hot, and it looked like it was just taken out of the pot, exuding a sweet smell.

Looking at the box, Jiashu was a little dazed again.

"My mother kept it for you. She said you've been thinking about it for a long time, and you're thinking about it. After it was fried that day, she packed a big box and gave it to me to keep. She told me to keep it and not give it to anyone. , I'll just wait for you to go back to eat."

Before Shen Cong's words were finished, Jiashu stretched out his hand, picked up the bamboo sticks on the side of the box, tied them together and stuffed them into his mouth.

The warm and sweet feeling flooded from the tip of his tongue all over his body in an instant, and he couldn't help narrowing his eyes in happiness.

For a moment, I even had the

idea that I would die like this and have no regrets in my life.

Seeing him like this, Shen Cong didn't say any more, and shoved the box directly into his hand.

She knew that it would take a process for Jiashu to accept this matter, and it was absolutely impossible for him to fully digest it in minutes.

Having this box of rice cakes to eat actually gave him time to digest himself, so she ignored him after handing it over.

The two people in the back were still in the mood to discuss food, but Father Shen in the front was getting more and more nervous.

The visibility outside the window was already very low.

The wipers outside the window had completely lost their function and were directly frozen on the snowflakes.

A layer of white frost condensed on the car window, and even if he hit the warm air to the highest level, he still couldn't stop the ice outside.

But even if he couldn't see clearly, Father Shen didn't dare to stop at all. The lesson just now is still in front of him. Who knows if the car will be able to start again after it stops?

In desperation, he could only move forward slowly based on his feeling and experience.

Fortunately, there were no other vehicles outside, and the ground was freezing hard.

Today's roads originally regarded the level of the ground as a road, and they were not as particular as the roads in the past.

So as long as the general direction is good, there is no need to worry about driving the car off the road.

Just like a donkey pulling a cart, the three of them had to walk almost a day.

In the middle, Father Shen and Jiashu changed positions again, and it was not until five o'clock in the afternoon that they returned to Fulin safely.

When they got out of the car, all three were exhausted, and even had the feeling of the rest of their lives.

But even though they were prepared, the three of them were still surprised after getting off the bus.

When they were in the car, they had already felt the difficulty of the road, but if they didn't get out of the car, they really didn't know that it was so piercingly cold outside!

The snow on the ground had covered his ankles.

While in the car, Shen Cong had already rummaged through the warmest clothes in the space, and the three of them could be said to be fully armed.

They were all wearing warm clothes, thick fleece jackets, thick down jackets with extended lengths, and even trousers were covered with clumsy and heavy down trousers.

The three of them were all dressed like bears, and Shen Cong felt that his legs would no longer be bent.

But even so, a few minutes after getting off the bus, or even before entering the community, they felt that their clothes were frozen through, and the cold air was so abruptly infiltrated.

In order to prevent the cold, the three of them wore a motorcycle helmet in addition to their scarves and hats. In this case, it would be impossible to communicate.

But in fact, there is no need to communicate anymore. After Shen Cong retracted the car into the space, all three of them ran towards home at the fastest speed.

When he entered the building, he breathed a sigh of relief.

Shen Cong took off the helmet and put it in the space. The other two followed suit and took it off and handed it to her.

At this time, it was already dark, and there was no light in the building.

She took out a strong flashlight and walked in the front.

But before he took two steps, he heard a hiss from behind.

Shen Cong stopped quickly and turned to look.

Then she saw Jiashu standing two or three steps behind her with grinning teeth, holding on to the handrail of the stairs and motionless.

"What's the matter?" Father Shen walked at the end and couldn't see the situation ahead, and was the first to ask when he heard the voice.

"It's alright."

Seeing that his sister-in-law and Uncle Shen had all stopped because of him, Jiashu replied quickly, with embarrassment in his voice.

Shen Cong ignored it and took a flashlight to take a photo, only to find that the guy's fingers were actually stuck on the handrail of the stairs.

The handrail of the stairs in the house here is the most common kind of wood on the top and metal railing on the bottom.

Because the family tree is too thick, his arms and legs are not easy to bend. When he went upstairs, he pulled the metal railings on the upper floors.

Who would have thought that the metal railings would have frozen through the cold day and night, and his fingers would stick directly to the metal.

At this moment, Jiashu has realized that he has done something stupid, and he is extremely embarrassed to be looked at by his sister-in-law and Uncle Shen like this.

He raised his hand and was about to pull it out, but was held down by Father Shen who came over.

"Don't dare, this tug will definitely lose a layer of skin! What weather is this, what should I do if I get injured!"

Shen Cong has never experienced such a situation, and she doesn't know what to do?

After thinking about it, I simply took out a bottle of warm water from the space and poured it on the railing.

Fortunately, such a method is feasible. As the metal heats up, the family tree's hand is immediately taken down.

This time, the three walked more cautiously.

Because the weather was too cold, the doors of each house were tightly closed, so basically no sound was heard along the way.

When they reached the thirteenth floor, they suddenly heard a man's suppressed cries coming from the building.

Shen Cong paused, and the two people behind him all stopped.

Father Shen took two steps forward, stopped and listened for a while, then sighed and said, "The old lady of the Xie family should be gone."

Shen Cong also thought about it, but after listening to her father's words, her heart was still heavy.

It wasn't long before the old lady Xie came home from the hospital.

I was already old, and then I became seriously ill.

Such a sudden drop in temperature is inevitable.

But even if they knew that this was normal, everyone could not help but feel sad when they heard the bursts of crying from the Xie family.

Xie Song and Lin Jie are still working in the regiment. It is estimated that the sudden drop in temperature will not have time for the two guys to go home.

There should only be Xie Benliang and the old lady left in the family. Now that the old man is gone, he doesn't even have the chance to see his grandson before his death.

Because they had just dealt with the Xie family before, Shen Cong and the others knew very well how filial the father and son of the Xie family and Lin Jie were to the old lady.

How good is the family relationship.

Before, everyone was still lamenting that this old lady had a good life, and it was a great blessing to have such a junior.

But in the blink of an eye, she was killed by this severe cold.

No one can accept such a sudden disaster, right?

The three continued to go upstairs, accompanied by the cry of the old lady and son Xie Benliang along the way.

He cried extremely sadly, and the mood of those who listened became more and more heavy.

Finally got home easily.

Shen Cong just took out the key and opened the iron door on the eighteenth floor, when the sound of opening the door came from upstairs.

Then came the sound of Tata's footsteps, and someone ran out of the house.

"Mumbling? Dad?"

With the shout, Gu Kai had already run downstairs.

"It's so cold, why are you running down here? Aren't we unable to find a home?"

Seeing her husband, the corners of Shen Cong's mouth couldn't help being raised, and the heavy weight was also suppressed.

Gu Kai did not answer her words.

He didn't say a word, rushed over and grabbed Shen Cong into his arms and hugged him tightly!

He hugged her so hard that he wanted to squeeze her deeply into his body.

Shen Cong was taken aback by his actions, and his whole body froze.

Father Shen and Jiashu, who followed closely behind, were also taken aback. The two of them made a mistake at the same time, standing there awkwardly for a while at a loss.

After the shock, Shen Cong felt a little embarrassed.

She helplessly reached out and patted Gu Kai's back, trying to signal him to let go.

Because of the thick clothes, when Gu Kai hugged Shen Cong, she actually didn't feel anything.

But when her hand touched her husband's body, she realized that Gu Kai was shaking.

His back was tense, and he was clearly in a state of extreme tension.

Only then did Shen Cong realize that their husband was frightened by their trip out.

She hurriedly hugged him back and comforted him softly: "It's okay, we're back. Don't be afraid, don't be afraid, I'm fine, you can touch it, my arms and legs are all covered. Don't worry, we're all back safely.

" When she said so, Father Shen and Jiashu also recovered.

Only then did they realize that Gu Kai's gaffe was due to being too nervous.

The previous embarrassment disappeared immediately, and recalling the previous experience, the two also became afraid.

Father Shen also followed suit.

He softly comforted: "Xiao Kai, don't worry, we are all back, and brought Shen Cong and the family tree back to you safely."

Gu Kai was really frightened today.

It's weirdly cold today.

The thermometer seemed to be broken, and the temperature fell down.

Seeing the snow falling, seeing the snowflakes form into pieces.

His heart was just like the sky outside, getting darker and darker.

As time passed, it was getting dark and the wife and father-in-law had not returned.

Gu Kai couldn't sit still.

His heart was restless, and he couldn't even do the work that he gave birth to.

Fear and worry made his heart seem stuck in his throat, and he couldn't even speak.

He went round and round the house, and the whole family couldn't stand it, and no one even tried to persuade him.

He regretted it so much that he didn't go with his wife in the morning.

Gu Kai had never been so afraid before.

He only thought about what Shen Cong said to him before.

Shen Cong said that she had never experienced extremely cold weather and had no idea what would happen during this period.

The more Gu Kai thought about it, the more he regretted it, and the more he thought about it, the more afraid he became.

He wanted to go out to look for it, but his reason told him that if he went out like this, he could not find anyone 100%.

But just stay in the room and wait, Gu Kai can't wait any longer.

Especially just now, Xie Benliang's cry suddenly came from downstairs.

After confirming that the old lady on the thirteenth floor was frozen to death, his worries and fears instantly reached the extreme!

He walked straight out of the room, stood at the elevator entrance and kept staring downstairs, refusing to let go of a sound.

Therefore, when he heard the door opening on the eighteenth floor, he couldn't control it any longer and rushed down.

Being so comforted by his wife and father-in-law, Gu Kai finally eased up.

When his reason returned, he also felt embarrassed.

He took the strong-light flashlight from his wife's hand and walked at the front to follow the road, but the other hand was still tightly clenching Shen Cong.

The group went up to the nineteenth floor. At this time, the whole family heard the sound and ran out, all standing in front of the security door.

Seeing them right, he breathed a sigh of relief, but at the same time he couldn't help laughing at Gu Kai.

"My God, I've known Xiaokai for so many years, and I've never seen him in such a hurry. Those circles he was in the room made Shan Shan fall asleep! I was stunned by him. "Shen Xi was the first to speak.

Shi Chen, who had also waited for a day, didn't hold back, and burst into laughter.

Cheng Ru angrily slapped the eldest daughter's arm: "How old are you, you are still talking nonsense. Xiao Kai is worried about your sister!

" The towel was on the daughter, and the husband slapped hard on him.

Shen Xi was joking and joking, and his hands were not idle.

After speaking, he had already handed over the warm and warm slippers, and asked the three of them to change their shoes before entering the room.

...

With such a group of people "serving" with them, the three of them quickly slapped the snow off their bodies, put on warm slippers, and walked into the house.

As soon as I entered the door, I felt a rush of heat.

The hot air made Shen Cong unprepared, and he sneezed several times in succession.

"Pour them a glass of ginger syrup each." Old Man Gu said.

Cheng Ru and Shi Chen quickly walked into the kitchen together.

Gu Kai turned his head and went upstairs. When he came down again, he held Shen Cong's thick pajamas and a hot water bottle in his hand.

Shen Cong changed her clothes, held a hot water bottle, sat beside the radiator, soaked her feet in the hot water, and held a cup of steaming ginger syrup in her hand...

At this moment, she finally realized that they had left After a difficult time, I finally got home.

The state of Jiashu and the old man are similar to hers. If there is a difference, it is that Jiashu refuses to let people wash his feet and insists on soaking him before going to bed at night.

So at this time, he was sitting on the sofa honestly.

On the other hand, Shen Cong and Shen's father did not have that restraint. The two sat next to each other guarding the radiator, soaking in the same hot water in the same posture, and answering the same questions.

When they heard Father Shen say that they had changed cars on the road, and finally came back in an off-road vehicle, the expressions of the family changed at the same time.

But that change was extremely small, and it all passed quickly.

It can be seen that everyone does not have much resistance to Jiashu knowing that secret.

The family talked for a while, the father and daughter finished soaking their feet and the three of them ate something together, and then Shi Chen and Cancan knocked on the door again.

After confirming that the three of them were safe just now, Shi Chen went home.

The children were clearly trying to give the family time to talk and eat.

It's almost time to wait until now, and then come back again.

Shi Chen held a large handful of broken wood in his hand, while Cancan held an enamel basin in which there were also some small pieces of broken wood.

Seeing what they brought, everyone in the Shen family was stunned for a moment.

Before anyone could ask, Shi Chen spoke first: "I chopped up the wooden slats at our door, uncle and auntie, you should save these for the evening, and I'll go out with Uncle Xiaofeng tomorrow morning, sure. I can still find some more."

Shi Chen said this, and everyone understood that he just split the broken wooden boards and wooden doors that had been piled up in the corridor at the earliest while the family was eating. .

"Shi Chen, take it back and use it, we have fuel here." Shen Cong immediately pushed the wood back again.

After that, she turned to look at her family.

Didn't they promise to send two stoves to Shi Chen and the others in the morning?

Didn't send it?

Gu Kai took over his wife's words: "I didn't tell you before, I bought a lot of fuel at home, so don't worry, come and get it at home when you run out."

Shi Chen shook his head.

He didn't go to push Shen Cong to refuse, but pushed his body to the side like a loach and squeezed into the room from her side.

After Shi Chen entered the house, he took the wood directly to the kitchen and set it up, and put the pot in his sister's hand beside him. Then he said, "Use the fuel and wood together, it will last a little longer."

After he said that, he didn't stay any longer, and took Cancan to go back.

When I got to the door, I didn't forget to say it again: "Uncle and auntie, don't worry about it. If it doesn't work tomorrow, let's go out and find more." The

Shichen brothers and sisters went home.

But what they did did was another blow to the relaxed feeling that had just appeared at home.

The smiles on everyone's faces disappeared once again.

"Gonggong, how long will the fuel you buy last?" Father Shen asked.

Shen Cong looked at Gu Kai.

"At that time, it was calculated based on two houses at the same time. If the community and here are burned at the same time, and it is calculated as open burning for fifteen hours a day, the fuel can be used for ten months. If you save some, it will last longer. ."

His statement made everyone's hearts ease at the same time.

There is no need to think about it in the community now, but at the same time, the Shichen family must be guaranteed.

However, the Shichen family has a small population, so the fuel used will not be as much as the one used to calculate the villa. This means that the fuel you bought before should last for a year, or even more than a year.

It stands to reason that it is good to be able to hold on for this long.

But no one dared to think so optimistically.

If nothing else, how long did the previous high temperature weather last?

That's far more than a year!

So, in fact, Chen Chen's idea is also correct. You can't sit still and eat the mountains. When it's time to collect fuel, you have to continue to collect it.

They were tired all day, and at night, Shen Cong and the others went to bed early.

Because the heating didn't stop all night, I finally got a good night's sleep.

It's just that even in the dream, Shen Cong maintained a high level of tension. She had a dream all night, and she was all looking for wood in her dream.

As a result, she woke up before seven o'clock.

When Shen Cong woke up, Gu Kai was no longer in the room.

The temperature in the room was obviously lower than when she slept last night. She touched the radiator by the bed and found that there was only a little residual temperature left.

Shen Cong dressed as quickly as possible and went downstairs.

Before I got to the living room, I heard my mother standing at the door of my sister's house and said softly inside: "Xixi, I turned off the heating, you should cover them both with an extra layer of quilt.

Your dad said that during the daytime, we don't allow our house to burn radiators, and at most put a brazier in the outhouse. Otherwise, let the neighbors know it's not good. After she finished speaking ,

she immediately saw her second daughter who came downstairs.

She quickly waved to her: "Monggong, come quickly, can you make braziers?" If you don't know how to do it, just make an iron pot out of it. Your dad insisted on using my washbasin in the morning and almost made me shoot out! Hearing her words ,

Father Shen also came over from the living room, complaining incessantly, "When is this all, and you are so particular about it?"

How many sinks are there in this house, I just counted five! How many dishes do you have to wash? "

Then there are the washbasin and the leaking water basin. Can you count them together?" How many pots I can't let you use indiscriminately for me, who knows if this pot will be good to buy in the future? You spoiled me. Where can I find it in the future? "

...

Shen Cong never thought that she would listen to her parents arguing over a kitchen sink early in the morning.

She quickly took out several pieces of scrap iron nets that had been stuffed in before, and said to Father Shen, "Dad , what is the brazier like? You tell me, I haven't seen it before. "

With her interruption, Father Shen stopped bickering with his wife, and began to describe to his daughter what he wanted the brazier to look like. After

listening to him for a long time, Shen Cong couldn't listen anymore.

She couldn't help but fight . Cut off his father's words: "Dad, we have so many stoves, can't we take out a small one and use it outside? Why do you have to get a brazier?

Aren't you buying a stove just to use it? If someone really asks, is it okay to move back from the community?

Also, we can boil water on the stove, and roast sweet potatoes and potatoes. If you set up a brazier, the smoke will be unsafe.

Tongtong won't talk about it, aren't you afraid that Shan Shan will meet? "

When Shen Cong said something else, Father Shen wanted to argue with her, but when he talked about his little granddaughter, he didn't say anything.

Seeing that his attitude had eased, Shen Cong didn't dare to give him a chance to go back and directly took out a small stove from the space and placed it at the junction of the living room and the balcony.

Then he personally went to get a pile of fuel and lit the stove.

Their movement naturally alarmed Old Master Gu.

The old man came out of the kitchen and said to Shen Cong, "If you don't need a brazier at home, you don't need it. If you have extra materials, you should make as many as possible.

Our neighbors downstairs have some at home. It is estimated that they can even wash vegetables. I can’t even find the pots, so I can make a few and share them with everyone.”

Father-in-law said so, what else can Shen Cong say?

Of course she agreed.

Fortunately, there are enough metal materials in the space before, so it doesn't take much to make a brazier.

And the pot described by my father is not complicated, and it is not difficult to make.

So before it was time for breakfast, Shen Cong had already made more than a dozen.

"Dad, where are Gu Kai and Jiashu?" Shen Cong asked towards the kitchen.

It's been a long time since I got up and I haven't seen those two people, so I don't even need to ask, Shen Cong also knows that they must have been sent by the father-in-law to work.

Sure enough, the old man's voice quickly came from the kitchen: "I made some cold soup and asked them to deliver it from house to house. It should be finished soon. When they come back, let them deliver the brazier.

" After hearing her father-in-law's words, Shen Cong stood up: "Then I'll go take a look too, while they're delivering the brazier together, so I don't have to run again later."

"I'll go with you, I know who is the best. Need." Before Shen Cong's voice fell, Shen Xi had already come out of the bedroom and said.

Hearing what the sisters said, the elders in the family didn't stop her.

The two walked down with the braziers in their arms. On the way, Shenxi told his sister about the situation at home.

Yesterday, when the old man saw that something was wrong, he immediately sent ginger and chili peppers to everyone, and then boiled cold-dispelling soup.

When the ginger and chili peppers were delivered, everyone's feelings were not that deep. At least at that time, some neighbors took the initiative to go out and help distribute them together.

But when they got up in the morning, packed up the ingredients, boiled the soup and sent it door to door again, they realized the seriousness of the matter.

From the start of cooling down to the distribution of the cold soup at 7:00 in the morning, it took only four or five hours in total, and three people died in the four buildings.

A middle-aged woman in her 40s and 50s died at home. She had a heart attack and died of a sudden temperature drop.

The other two went out to work and didn't have time to come back before the severe cold, and died of freezing on the road.

After the floods passed, the city began to focus on sanitation and epidemic prevention, especially adding some sanitation workers.

The work intensity of these sanitation workers is not high, but the working hours are basically in the early morning and midnight, which is very hard.

Therefore, the government assigns these positions the points of the full labor force, but recruits half laborers.

This is actually

Chapter 112 (2)

It is disguised to provide benefits to the semi-laborers.

At the beginning of the recruitment of these positions, they were immediately crowded out, and there were many applicants.

This was originally a good thing, but who would have thought that severe cold would suddenly come?

Those who went out to work had already left their homes for work at three or four o'clock, and their clothes were thin and could not withstand the cold at all.

On top of that, being part of the labor force usually means that they are either women, older than 60, or disabled.

These people are often less likely to survive when faced with a disaster.

"Besides the three, there are probably a few people in our community that disappeared. The crying in the courtyard didn't stop yesterday.

I don't know who the other ones are upstairs. The old lady only died at night."

Speaking of which, Shen Xi sighed: "In fact, there is not much we can do except to give everyone a cold-dispelling soup. We watched it yesterday, but many people don't talk about clothes. , there are not enough quilts.

What can we do about this? Our quilts are barely used by ourselves, and we can't give them to others. Not to mention fuel."

"Unless the government comes forward. Otherwise, no one can do anything but fight hard. "Shen Cong said.

She understood her sister's mood, but in fact she felt uncomfortable when she heard this.

But the ability of the individual is limited. At this time, in addition to self-help, we can only rely on the help of the government.

Who can save the world by their own power?

Chapter 113 (1)

The sisters walked downstairs with the brazier.

It can be seen that Shen Xi said that she knows who is missing, this is really not a lie.

Obviously, she had visited all the neighbors' houses in this building before, and had a good understanding of the situation of each house.

On the seventeenth floor, they gave the brazier to a family of seven who had moved in from outside.

The family were the original owners of the house. But it's the same situation as Shi Chen's house, that is, they bought a house but didn't live here, and moved back after the earthquake when another house collapsed.

Their family is not as good as Shi Chen's!

Although Shi Chen and his family don't live often, they are home anyway, and the house has been renovated.

When this family moved in, it was basically a rough house.

After the earthquake, what will be left of the house? Originally, it was empty-handed, and then living in a rough house...

How can it be fooled in summer, this night in winter, isn't it difficult for this family to survive?

When it comes to their family of seven, it is really a piece of people from several households.

A father, a son and a twelve-year-old grandson, this is three people.

The other is the father's daughter, the son-in-law, the son-in-law's mother, and the son-in-law's sister's eight-year-old daughter.

It seems that the population is large, but the only people who can really work and earn dry food are the son and the son-in-law.

When Shen Cong and the others went, it was the old man's daughter who came out to open the door.

She should be in her thirties, but the hard life has sharpened her. She looks much older than Shen Xi of the same age, and her hair on the temples is white.

The woman was wrapped in a towel quilt that had been worn to the point of light transmission, and her face was pale.

He opened the door and took the brazier handed over by Shen Xi, showing a grateful expression, thanking him again and again.

She stepped aside and wanted to invite the two sisters into the room to sit.

Shen Xi waved his hand.

Then he looked inside and asked, "What's wrong? What happened at home?" The

woman's face suddenly turned gloomy.

She lowered her head and said softly, "My mother-in-law is dying."

Only then did Shen Cong and Shen Xi understand the reason for the suppressed crying inside.

"I'm going to bring you some hot soup." Shenxi said immediately.

The woman grabbed her.

The woman's tears were falling down, but her tone was persistent.

"Don't bother, just now Xiao Gu and the others have sent cold-dispelling soup, so that's fine.

Don't bother us, it's not easy for anyone to get some firewood these days, don't make fire for us.

That cold-dispelling soup is already very good . Thank you.

I won't say anything to say thank you, I just want to say, I just want to say... Without this soup, my mother-in-law would not be able to resist now."

She said refusal in her mouth, but her tears were disconnected. It seems to have been falling.

It can be seen that she is sincerely rejecting, but she is already desperate in her heart.

In such a climate, he can still insist on taking care of two elderly people and two children who are not his own. How can such a person be so bad?

After all, she will at least have a kind heart.

Seeing her like this, the two sisters were very distressed.

Shen Xi patted her hand, didn't speak, pulled her sister and the two of them came out of her house.

"I'll go home and get some hot water." Shen Xi said.

Shen Cong nodded and returned home with her sister.

The two of them returned without going downstairs for a few minutes at all, and everyone in the family was a little surprised.

After listening to Shen Xi's explanation, Cheng Ru also felt uncomfortable, she went back to the kitchen without saying a word.

Shen Cong pulled up in the space.

Although there are spare clothes and cotton mattresses in her space, she can't take them out in this situation.

She rummaged inside for a long time, and then her eyes fell on the canvases she bought first.

The canvas was originally bought considering that there might be something to wrap in case of rain, but in fact, she has never used it until now after buying it.

That canvas is thick, rough but absolutely windproof and rainproof.

Without a word, she took out the canvas, took out scissors and cut it in the living room.     Seeing her action, Father Shen

came over and asked, "What are you doing?"

"I found some canvas and wanted to cut it into small pieces for everyone to share."

Pulling up the canvas, he looked at the size and said, "Don't cut small pieces. If you cut too small, the cloth will be wasted.

" Okay, I pressed the marks with my hands, and explained while cutting: "This piece of cloth should be 20 meters long. If you cut it into two meters, it is enough to cut ten pieces.

This size can be covered or wrapped, and then separated. It’s good for two people, it’s more useful than the small piece. If you give it to a household, you can solve great difficulties for others.” The

old man has the wisdom of the old man.

Hearing what his father said, Shen Cong handed over the job to him, and then took out the disposable raincoat that was left over from the insect plague in the space.

During the insect plague, their disposable raincoats were not used less often. There are not even half of the 200 I bought before.

She took them all out and put them together with Dad's cut canvas.

At this time, Mother Shen had already cooked the hot and sour soup.

This time, she put some corn batter in the hot and sour soup, which looks thick and can be eaten as a meal.

Shen Xi carried the lunch box with hot and sour soup, Shen Cong wrapped the canvas and two disposable raincoats with paper, and went to the seventeenth floor again.

Seeing them again, the woman's eyes flashed with surprise.

Seeing what they handed over, her eyes immediately turned red.

She still wanted to push back, but Shen Cong put her finger on her lips to signal her to keep silent, and then looked around with her eyes.

The woman immediately understood what she meant, and bowed deeply to the sisters before taking the thing.

Going down from the seventeenth floor, the two sisters felt a little uncomfortable, and they didn't speak for a long time.

It wasn't until he was about to reach the tenth floor that Shen Cong asked, "Sister, who else are you going to?"

"Go to the second building. There was a man in the second building who broke his leg when he went out to work some time ago. Now It's not easy for a woman to take care of a child. Let's go to that house."

Shen Cong originally thought that all the neighbors in the same building that her sister was going to take her to, did not expect that her current scope of activities has expanded to other areas. The building, can not help but a little surprised.

Seeing his sister's surprise, Shen Xi smiled: "Have you never noticed that your building is the best building in the entire Fulin Community

? The households on the lower floors are not too small, and the smallest house is over 120 square meters, right?

Few people who can afford such a house are really poor. At most, they move back from the outside like on the 17th floor. , all the old things are gone. But

this is also a minority.

The first building and the second building are all small apartments, and the people living there are in all kinds of situations, and some people are exhausted. "

Speaking of this, Shen Cong couldn't bear it . He sighed.

While talking, the sisters walked downstairs, but as they were walking, they heard a quarrel coming from downstairs.

The sound was so loud that even though it was several floors apart, the sisters felt their ears buzzing.

Before they could express their astonishment, they heard the swearing in the quarrel, and soon came the sound of fighting and tearing.

Shen Xi suddenly widened her eyes: "Who fought?"

She subconsciously sped up her steps, but was caught by Shen Cong.

Shen Cong grabbed the back of her sister's down jacket, dragged her behind him, and then took out a wolf-proof stick from the space and held it in his hand.

Seeing her sister's actions and the vigilance on her face, Shen Xi's expression became solemn.

She poked Shen Cong's arm with her hand and whispered, "Give me one."

Without looking back, Shen Cong handed the anti-wolf stick to her, but took a mountain-splitting axe from the space and held it tightly. live.

The sisters went to the fifth floor.

They didn't even have to move forward, and they could hear the sound of fighting coming from the first house that had been used as an entrance and exit.

They walked over, and before they entered the door, they found that the situation in the room was completely different from before.

This house can be said - has been stripped - bare.

Not to mention the furniture left in the house, which has long since disappeared.

Even the door panels, door frames and window frames, as well as the wall cabinets, were all unloaded.

The wooden floor on the ground was also torn apart, and even the keel below the wooden floor was chopped into pieces and put aside.

At this time, there was a man and a woman tearing in the middle of the house.

Men are not young anymore, so they have to be in their 60s anyway, women are younger, but they have yellow faces and thin skin, and they look like they can be blown over when the wind blows.

But it was these two people who fought so hard that it could be said that the fists saw flesh.

When the old man thumped the woman, he did not exert any strength, and the two sisters could hear the tom-tom sound even though they were far away.

The woman is not much better than the old man. Her hands are curled into a hook shape, and the nails are desperately scratching the old man's face and body.

There were several long bloodstains on the old man's face, and the blood-stained flesh turned outwards, with blood flowing.

There were also scratches on the exposed arms...

Shen Xi suddenly shivered.

She ducked back and asked in a low voice, "What are the two of them making a fuss about?"

This is too ruthless, what a serious matter to be beaten to death!

Shen Cong relaxed a lot at this moment.

She found that she thought too much before, and this was not the gang fight she thought.

In this battle... nothing major can happen.

After listening to her sister's question, she glanced at the two piles of broken pieces of wood scattered in the house, and said indifferently, "Fuel."

Shen Xi was silent.

The two sisters had no intention of stepping forward to persuade them at all, so they turned around and left after looking at them.

There is no way to persuade this kind of thing. It was originally a fight for survival. Who is more reasonable than who?

It's just that they are all neighbors living in the same building. They usually don't look up and see each other. Now they are fighting to the death for a little bit of wood. Both of them feel a little uncomfortable.

When he got out of the building, Shen Cong found that the outside was completely different from before.

In the yard under the heavy snow, the uncleaned filth left by the previous flood was all invisible, and it was covered in silver everywhere, which was very beautiful.

But it looks good, but it's also really cold!

The snow on the ground was already below his knees.

The four buildings left by Fulin are next to each other, separated by a small square.

The small square was made of terrazzo for the sake of appearance.

When it snows in winter, the ground is just like an ice rink, it's slippery.

In the past, the property would put up signs around the square every time it rained and snowed in winter, preventing the owners from moving forward.

But at this moment, there is no property in the community for a long time, and the steps on the side of the square are completely covered by heavy snow, and there is no trace at all.

Therefore, the square and its surroundings are full of marks made by people who fell, and long scratches left by falling out.

Shen Xi clicked his tongue twice and said, "How painful it is to fall! There aren't many people's clothes these days. When you fall, you will encounter those with brittle bones, so you won't break the bones directly?

Hey, you have to find some boards to do it. A sign is standing here, it is estimated that those people didn't see the steps at all before."

"Signs? No matter how much they stand, they can be pulled home and set on fire." Shen Cong said coldly from the side.

Thinking of the scene he saw on the fifth floor just now, Shen Xi suddenly stopped talking.

After all, Shen Cong couldn't turn a blind eye.

After all, what my sister said was right, don't look at the thick snow, it's not a joke if you really fall.

Nowadays, people are malnourished, and people who are deficient in calcium do not know how much.

The steps of this terrazzo are slippery and hard, and it is too easy to break a bone if you hit it hard.

Shen Cong took small steps and walked around the small square in the middle with his feet. After determining the scope, he found a secluded place and took out the metal from the space, made four iron signs on the spot, and wrote on it with a paint pen. word of warning.

The sisters erected the sign in the most conspicuous position facing the four buildings and fixed it.

Then he walked towards the other one that Shen Xi said.

It took about two hours for the two talents to send out all ten braziers, and then sent out two more sets of canvas and raincoats that were prepared.

At the same time, they naturally saw a lot of tragic and suffocating things. When they came down from the third building, both of them felt bad.

After leaving the building door, the sisters took a deep breath subconsciously at the same time, letting the icy chill drive away the stagnation in their hearts.

Then we walked carefully towards our home together.

Before taking a few steps, Shen Xi suddenly stopped.

"What's wrong?" Shen Cong asked.

"Where's the sign you made just now?" Shen Xi looked forward with a shocked expression.

Following her gaze, Shen Cong looked over, and found that none of the four warning signs she made not long ago were gone.

Because the snow has not stopped during this period, and now the entire square has not even a trace left.

If it wasn't for the sign that the two of them personally fixed on the square not long ago, both of them would have doubted whether it even existed at this moment.

"Who stole it? Why did you steal it too?!" Shen Xi was so angry that his voice became louder.

Shen Cong was fine, and there was not much turbulence in his heart.

This is the end of the world!

She said silently in her heart.

Because I have been living in the community before, it may be at the beginning of the apocalypse that everyone realized the weakness of their own personal ability early, and then there are two people who are dedicated to the public, Shi Lei and Cao Hongmin, so the people in the whole community took the lead. All twisted into a rope.

So that the whole community seems to have become a paradise in the end of the world. No matter how hard life is, people have not lost their nature, at least they live like normal people.

Everyone's living environment is also like a normal environment.

After living in the community for a long time, not to mention Shen Xi, including Shen Cong, a person who has experienced the end of the world, has gradually been assimilated. When encountering something, the first reaction has all become - everyone work together to overcome Difficulty.

But in fact, they forgot that the living environment in the community was the real alternative during this period.

Taking care of each other, the survival of the weak is the real life of most people today.

It's like what happened on the fifth floor just now. It's not just the two sisters who want to see it, but no one stepped forward to stop it from beginning to end.

"Let's go." Shen Cong stepped forward and tugged on her sister's clothes, and dragged her back to his building.

When she went upstairs, Shen Xi was still holding back the fire in her heart, and she walked very fast all the way. She didn't even stop when she walked up to the nineteenth floor, and went up in one go.

On the contrary, Shen Cong, who was following behind her, was almost exhausted.

You know, they have just gone up and down three buildings!

After arriving home, Shen Xi's eyes were red as soon as he entered the door.

Seeing her like this, the whole family gathered around.

"What's the matter, who bullied you?"

Father Shen didn't look at his usual choking with his daughter, but he didn't want to see his eldest daughter come back crying after going out.

As he spoke, he stood up straight, his face tense, as if he was going to fight someone.

After he finished speaking, Shen Cong finally walked back.

She held the shoe cabinet with one hand and covered her chest with the other, panting like an old lady, unable to speak.

Seeing his father's posture, Shen Cong was really angry and funny. He waved his hands at his father, but he couldn't take his words at all.

Shen Xi also recovered her strength now, she said to Shen's father: "No one bullies me, I'm just a little angry. The people here are really boring, Dad, let's go back to the community when the weather is better, I don't want to be in the community. Stay here."

Hearing what his daughter said, Father Shen at least knew that she was fine, so he was relieved.

At this time, Gu Kai had already walked up to his wife, took the down jacket she took off, and helped her change into slippers.

He also stretched out his hand to help her rub her back.

After the sisters changed their clothes, they all went back to the living room to sit down.

It took them so long to turn around in a circle, which was beyond what the two of them had thought before, so much so that their stomachs would be flattened by now.

Knowing that they were freezing enough, no one mentioned that they should go to the table to eat.

Gu Kai brought the small coffee table to the stove, and the two of them moved a small bench and sat opposite each other.

Cheng Ru gave each of the two daughters a bowl of red jujube and purple rice porridge, and brought out the small flower rolls and the cut steamed meat cakes that had been warm in the pot.

Because the family tree now also knows the existence of space, the family members have less scruples when eating, and they dare to take out things that were difficult to explain before.

So much so that the quality of this morning's meals has gone up straight.

The two drank hot and sweet porridge, ate fragrant meat loaf, and finally ate a small piece of sweet potato handed over from the family tree, which was roasted with honey.

My stomach is full and my mood is finally getting better.

Father Shen was still thinking about the emotions of his eldest daughter until now, sitting on the side and accompanying him, and at the same time looking down at her face from time to time.

Shen Xi couldn't help crying and laughing at the sight.

She put down the bowl of porridge, and then said to her father, "Dad, I'm really fine, I just went around so much, and I felt a little uncomfortable after seeing a lot of things. I think the people here are different from those in the community. Too indifferent."

Shen Xi is also not the kind of person who has grown up in a honey pot and has never seen all kinds of things in the world.

On the contrary, she has lived abroad for nearly ten years, growing from a student to a successful businessman, and she has suffered a lot in the process.

It can be said that at least before the end of the world, Shen Xi was much more mature than his sister Shen Cong.

But in the past few years after the end of the world, she has been living in the community, and the environment there is completely different from the outside.

When she came out again and saw this naked fight, she couldn't take it anymore.

"Dad, Mom, you don't know if you didn't go out. The one in Building No. 3 is the one I told you when I came back yesterday. The couple brought a daughter. I went just now. Guess what happened?"

"What's wrong?" Cheng Ru asked.

"That girl's mother was hanged!"

"Hanged?!" Cheng Ru's hands trembled, and the tray in her hand fell directly to the ground, and the several corn cobs inside suddenly rolled on the floor.

Shen Xi nodded, tears streaming down uncontrollably.

"Why did you hang yourself? Why?"

Not only Cheng Ru was surprised, but the old man and the old man also came over, and the three old men had expressions of condolence on their faces.

Gu Kai and Jia Shuchao made a mistake and left the chatting scene.

Apparently, they already knew about it when they went to deliver the expelling cold soup.

It's just that the two of them were worried that the old people would feel uncomfortable when they found out, so they didn't say anything when they came back.

"They don't have any winter clothes at home, only two thin blankets and a thin quilt. The thickest clothes in the family are a raincoat.

The woman is not in good health. Usually, her man goes out to work to earn money to support the three of them.

At home with her daughter, she is sometimes able to pick up on government-issued manual work, but most of the time she is not.

It snowed suddenly, her man couldn't go out, and it was too cold to go out even if there was work outside.

She had a high fever last night, and her husband and daughter stayed with her all night. It is said that she only fell asleep in the morning. As a result, when the two woke up, they found that she had hanged herself in the toilet. "

Shenxi said this, and paused for a long time, she couldn't go on.

But she didn't say it and everyone understood the reason. It must be that this woman felt that she was a burden to the family and didn't want her husband to be too embarrassed. Chose to self-destruct.

"How old is her daughter? Cheng Ru couldn't hold back and asked again.

"Fifteen." "Shen Cong added.

Cheng Ru rubbed her chest with her hand, opened her mouth, but said nothing.

She wanted to say that it's okay, the child is almost an adult, at least it won't leave her mother. I can't live. But

I think it's too cold-blooded to say this.

Shen Cong looked out the window and quietly listened to what her mother and sister said. She seemed to be thinking about something, but she didn't seem to be thinking about anything.

She heard that Shen Xi was there again Complaining to my parents about the people downstairs taking away the warning signs, complaining that the neighbors stopped talking about watching and helping each other, and even lacked the most basic morality.

These words floated from her ears and drifted away, but Not even a trace can be left.

"What are you thinking? "I don't know when Gu Kai sat down beside her.

He handed a glass of boiling water over and asked softly.

"Nothing. "Shen Cong took the water, warmed his hands on the cup, and answered slowly.

Gu Kai was used to his wife's emotional depression from time to time.

Seeing that she didn't want to say, he didn't ask any further questions. He just sat next to her quietly, holding a cup and drinking water with her. The

two of them didn't know how long they had been sitting before Gu Kai suddenly said, "My abilities seem to have been upgraded. "

Shen Cong was startled, all the irritability and depression in his heart were all forgotten, and he quickly turned to look at him: "When did it happen? What level are you now?"

Her voice was a little loud, which immediately attracted the attention of the whole family. Attention, everyone is looking this way.

Gu Kai shook his head: "It's just the past two days. I don't know what level it is, but I think it's a lot easier to give birth now than before.

I helped Dad give birth to so many gingers and peppers in the past two days. And his Chinese herbal medicines, if I used to be very tired, but now I feel okay, and my mental state has not changed much."

When he didn't say it, everyone didn't notice it, and when he said this, Mr. Gu was the first realized the difference.

In addition to some common ingredients such as ginger and pepper, he also used some hot Chinese medicine to cook the cold-dispelling soup.

Two of them require perennials and take at least three years to mature.

Although he had planted some before, the harvest was too little, and it was not enough at all.

In a hurry these two days, he asked his son to help spawn a batch.

When he asked his son to work at that time, he didn't react. Those medicines were different from the annual vegetables such as ginger and pepper, and the energy required was also different.

He just told Gu Kai the number of births he needed, and he didn't care about anything else. It was only now that he realized how difficult the task he had given his son was.

Presumably, it takes several times more energy than ordinary vegetables to induce success with a single drug.

What's more, what he needs is two medicines, and the quantity he needs is still so many.

Old Man Gu was introspecting himself, other people didn't think as much as he thought, and everyone was very happy to hear that Gu Kai said that his abilities had been upgraded.

Especially the two children. The environment at home was so depressing just now, and the two children were terrified. Now, when my uncle said that his abilities had been upgraded, the little guy's eyes suddenly lit up.

Tongtong and Shan Shan all ran over, pushed aside their aunt and a monkey came onto Gu Kai's body.

Tongtong is okay, and she is two years older, no matter how curious she is, she just chases after her and asks, "Uncle and uncle, how did you do it?"

Shan Shan is different.

The little girl climbed onto Gu Kai's lap, grabbed his neck and shook it vigorously: "Uncle, I want to level up too! You help me level up too!" The

shaking made Gu Kai unable to sit still.

Shan Shan can be said to be the most depressing ability user in the whole family.

Her awakened ice-type ability has never played a role in the current environment.

I learned to make ice cream with great difficulty, but the weather suddenly turned cold again.

So that people around her often don't remember that she has the same power as her brother.

It is because of this that she actually cares more about the improvement of her abilities than Tongtong.

The little girl always wanted to make herself great and serve everyone like a brother.

When two children interrupted like this, everyone laughed, and the previous depression in the room was finally gone.

Everyone's attention was on Gu Kai's upgrade, and they asked around him endlessly.

Even Jiashu was very active, and Minato listened very seriously.

But in fact, Gu Kai himself didn't know why his powers improved, let alone what level it was.

"I think the reason for the improvement may be that I use it too much?" Gu Kai thought for a while and replied.

Hearing what he said, everyone was silent, and they couldn't ask what happened next.

After all, as a wood-type ability user, he is indeed the one who contributes the most.

Not only are the experimental fields in the city inseparable from him, but he has also contributed a lot to the country by going abroad, which is completely irrelevant.

"Then my sister-in-law did a lot of work? She also spent a lot of effort to go to the overpass of the provincial library.

I went to see the bridge that day, it's so long! I can't even think that my sister-in-law was exhausted those days. What!

Sister-in-law, have you upgraded? I didn't hear you say you upgraded?"

Jiashu asked a little unwillingly.

Gu Kai glanced at his cousin and asked with a smile, "How do you know she hasn't upgraded?"

Jiashu's eyes widened immediately.

Shen Cong raised his hand and replied helplessly: "I really didn't level up. I just might have a higher level when I had awakened powers before, but I didn't compare the specifics, but things like building a library flyover are not very useful to me. It's difficult."

After listening to the couple's words, before Jiashu said a word, Shen Xi clicked his tongue first.

She laughed angrily and scolded: "What are we doing around them? Just waiting to hear them show off?"

After that, she slapped Jiashu on the shoulder: "You are also an idiot, which of these two is normal? People? You chase after them and ask, isn't that looking for abuse?"

Everyone burst into laughter after saying one sentence.

Jiashu was heartbroken by Shen Xi's words.

He covered his chest and lay down on the sofa, shouting at Old Man Gu: "Uncle, you can't be partial! What did you teach my brother and my sister-in-law? You have to teach me too! I also have supernatural powers, I Upgrade too!" The

old man was so angry that he raised his cane and knocked at him, making the tree growl.

Both Shen's father and Shen's mother laughed too hard.

Mother Shen smiled and said: "Knock you deserve it! I won't stop you. If you don't stay home, let you run around, who can blame you if you don't have the ability? What's the matter? You're not staying at home honestly anymore!"

Hearing this, Jiashu's heart shattered even more.

Shen Cong sat on the small bench, watching the family laughing and making a mess, and a slight smile appeared on his face.

Gu Kai reached out and held her hand in the palm of his hand, completely covering it.

Then he asked softly: "Are you feeling better?"

Shen Cong was stunned for a moment, and then she realized that the reason why her husband mentioned the upgrade of his abilities was that he deliberately led the topic to such a direction that would easily resonate with the whole family. Above is to widen your heart.

He could see that he was uncomfortable.

Shen Cong also stuffed the other hand into her husband's, bringing her whole body close to him.

Then he said softly, "I'm nothing, I just suddenly felt that I was extremely small and powerless."

Gu Kai put his other hand on top of hers, wrapping her small hand in it.

Then he said warmly: "It's not just you, each of us is very small, and we are very weak in the face of nature."

He looked at his wife: "Even if you have experienced it once, you are just an ordinary person, don't let it go. Think of yourself as omnipotent.

Whether it’s for the small family or everyone, just do your best, and don’t think too much about the rest.”

Shen Cong nodded and pushed herself into her husband’s arms again. The snuggle.

In fact, she knew what Gu Kai said, and she had told herself so many times in her heart.

But speaking from her husband's mouth, for some reason, she felt that she was more able to listen, and she felt better when she heard it.

The family did not go out in the afternoon.

Because she felt that her family was in a bad mood, Cheng Ru made a big pot of sweet soup this afternoon.

Not only that, but despite her wife's objection, she just turned on all the radiators on the first floor, burning the stove vigorously and making the room warm.

Cheng Ru said to his wife seriously: "I don't care what you worry about, I know that my children are all around me, and the whole family is together.

The outside world is hard enough and I can't let my kids have that hard time at home.

Whenever I want my children to think that their home is warm and at ease, they can't wait to come back when they think of going home. Having

said that, Cheng Ru stabbed the family tree again dissatisfied: "Maybe it's because I did so badly before that some children don't feel at home at all, and they can't think of going home anytime. In

a word, Jiashu rubbed her nose in embarrassment.

Although Cheng Ru has been playing the role of a good helper at home, she is either cooking or taking care of the children every day.

But she did it in the best middle school in Beining. Vice-principal of administration. She

also served as a head teacher for more than 20 years before switching to administration.

She knows more about psychology than her husband Shen Jianyi.

The continuous natural disasters will bring countless lives to people's lives. In addition to the difficulties and pressures, it is also easy to destroy people's will and hope.

The performance of the two daughters after their return today made Cheng Ru deeply worried.

There is no shortage of materials at home, even if such a disaster continues for a long time, Cheng Ru is deeply worried. Ru is not afraid that the family will not survive.     Even

if the supplies are used up, so what? The family needs

to be able and capable, to have staff, and to be healthy.

Life is so depressing.

Under Cheng Ru's repeated insistence, Father Shen could only compromise. He

closed the curtains to completely isolate the outside world. The family sat around the stove, roasting corn and eating sweet potatoes.

Shen Xi spread a blanket on the ground, took out the blocks and puzzles, and the two children sat on it and played their favorite games .

Shen Cong took out the projector, opened the curtain, and then found a comedy that was suitable for all ages from the tablet, ready to show it to everyone.

Gu Kai went to knock on the door of Shi Chen's house, and called all the five people in the house over and asked them to watch a movie together.

After entering the house, let alone Zhou Ying and Liu Xiaofeng, even Shi Chen was taken aback.

He blurted out a sentence: "Is this the New Year's Eve?"

"Yes, the New Year! No matter what else, let's celebrate the New Year first!" Cheng Ru didn't correct it, and followed his words.

After saying that, he pointed to the five bowls of sweet soup that had been placed on the table: "Go and drink a bowl to warm your body, then watch a movie if you want to watch a movie, or play something else.

There are sweet potatoes baked in the stove, If you have corn, you have to eat it and get it yourself. Today we don’t think about anything, let’s have a good afternoon!” After the

old lady finished speaking, she ignored the three people who were inexplicably surprised and pulled Cancan and Xiaoyu over. Pulled them directly to the table.

Zhou Ying and Liu Xiaofeng glanced at each other, Liu Xiaofeng quietly approached Gu Kai and asked, "What is this for?"

He said and blinked.

Gu Kai of course understood what he didn't finish. Liu Xiaofeng felt that something must have happened at home, otherwise he wouldn't dare to be so extravagant.

This severe cold has just begun, who dares to burn fire like this and use fuel like this?

Are the days to come?

Gu Kai didn't hide it from him, and said the old lady's words softly.

The three people who came to listen were all silent.

In fact, everyone can understand the old lady's intentions, because everyone feels too much empathy for the depressed mood.

Maybe they haven't realized it yet, but that kind of pressure really brings people to the brink of collapse from time to time.

Just like that woman who hanged herself, is it really impossible to live at all?

Her husband is still working diligently every day, and when she is sick, he stays with her all night with her daughter.

Their children are about to grow up, and it will not bring them any burden.

Compared with other people, their days are far from the time when they can't live.

Can

Chapter 113 (2)

It was in this situation that she chose to cut herself off.

Saying that she doesn't want to burden her family is of course the biggest reason, but at the same time, does it also mean that her mental illness is more serious than her physical illness?

Her death is most likely due to her depression.

Therefore, it is really necessary to relax properly and adjust the mood with appropriate luxury.

"Let's burn it, let the fire burn vigorously, the big deal is that we'll go find firewood tomorrow. What a big deal?!" Shi Chen clenched his fists and said first.

"That's right, it's rare to get comfortable once, why do you think so much?" Liu Xiaofeng immediately expressed his approval.

The three walked to the table together.

Liu Xiaofeng has always been a master at adjusting the atmosphere. He didn't understand the situation just now, but now that he has figured it out, he naturally blurted out the good words.

After a while, Cheng Ru said with a smile.

I can't wait to bring him home to be a son too.

This afternoon, the Shen family spent half a day being the most relaxed and comfortable since the end of the world.

All relatives and friends get together to chat, drink tea, eat snacks, and watch movies.

In addition to playing with building blocks and jigsaw puzzles, the three children finally played hide-and-seek upstairs and downstairs, and laughter spread throughout the room.

Everyone felt very comfortable, and felt that their souls were nourished, which gave them new courage and fighting spirit to face the new day.

It wasn't until eight o'clock in the evening, when several children yawned, that Zhou Ying and the others reluctantly said goodbye.

After seeing them off, Shen Cong casually opened the curtains and glanced outside, then said in surprise, "Come and see, the street lights are on outside!"

Chapter 114

Liu Tuan had said before that the entire Bac Ninh City will soon restore the supply of civil electricity.

But the various disasters that followed, made this word become empty talk.

Not to mention the civilian electricity, the street lights that would turn on every two at night have long been cut off. Now it's pitch black everywhere at night.

Because the snow has been falling, no one has complained about the government because of this. Everyone knows that even the government is not easy.

But no one thought that the government had been taking action, and the street lights that suddenly turned on were the proof.

Don't think that this little street lamp is nothing, it is bright and a symbol of hope when the whole people are decadent.

At least it proves that everyone has not been abandoned, and there is always light ahead.

Because the heating was good, the whole family slept very comfortably that night.

Shen Cong didn't wake up all night until the morning when he was shocked by the whistle that suddenly sounded outside, he sat up directly.

"Wake up?"

"What's the matter?"

Seeing her husband standing by the window looking out, Shen Cong stroked her pounding heart and asked.

"Assembly post. I saw soldiers standing downstairs, there should be some announcement to be released. You go to bed first, I'll go down and have a look." Gu Kai started to change his clothes as he spoke.

"I'll go with you, just wait at home, I'm so anxious." Shen Cong said, and got off the bed.

Gu Kai did not stop him.

The husband and wife got dressed and went downstairs, and then saw that their father and sister were also up, and they were standing at the door wearing their coats.

"Why go to so many people? I'll just go and have a look. You all go to sleep." Father Shen looked at them and said helplessly.

"You're up, why are you still sleeping? Let's go have a look together." Shen Cong yawned, walked to the shoe cabinet and sat down to change his shoes.

The family of four went out of the house talking, and as soon as they went out, they saw Liu Xiaofeng who was also walking towards the door.

He was banging Shichen inside: "Go back to bed! Why are you getting up so early? What's the matter waiting for me to come back to tell you."

Hearing what he said was almost exactly the same as his own, Father Shen laughed.

Several people went downstairs together.

It was just six o'clock, the sky was not yet full, and the stairwell was dark.

Gu Kai and Shen's father each took a flashlight and walked at the two ends of the line, showing everyone the way.

There were only five of them in the stairwell to begin with.

But after walking a few floors, I felt that there was light flashing below, and then there were voices of people talking in the aisle.

It can be seen that they were all summoned by the whistle.

By the time they walked downstairs, there were already a lot of people outside.

In the past, there was an announcement in the community, and all the people who came were standing in the small square in the middle, and everyone gathered under the steps.

Now, because the square is too slippery, the soldiers who came are standing at the entrance of Building No. 2, so that the people who come from behind can't see it at all, and they can't hear what that person is saying.

There was a buzzing sound from the crowd, and everyone was talking about it.

At this time, the snow had not stopped, and no one was sweeping the courtyard because of the snow, so the snow at the moment had to cover the knees.

Standing in the snow, everyone shivered from the cold.

The white breath exhaled instantly condensed into ice flowers and hung on the eyebrows and beards of people, looking white.

Even the whole family like the Shen family has plenty of clothes, all thickly dressed. Standing outside in such a morning for just a few minutes, they would feel completely frozen and bitingly cold.

Not to mention those who don't have enough clothes to wear, they can imagine how they feel at this time.

There are some people in the courtyard who don't have winter clothes at home. At this moment, even the quilts have been approved. They all stand in the shelter of the building, and they are still shivering from the cold.

Because everyone felt the same way, and no one laughed at anyone.

The soldier who was blowing the whistle also knew everyone's feelings. They didn't make people wait too long. When there were some people who came down, they called everyone to gather.

At this time, a soldier walked out of the crowd and began to whistle again along the outer circle of the square to the four buildings.

Continue to greet everyone downstairs.

The soldier who stayed in the same place did not know where to find a square stool. He stood on the stool and held a loudspeaker to tell everyone the purpose of their visit.

It turned out that after a few days of emergency reconstruction, the temporary gathering points built during the flood were reopened to everyone.

This time, there is no mandatory requirement to relocate, but a voluntary registration method is adopted.

Those who wish to go can sign up now, and the little warriors will escort them to the gathering point.

If the family has effective cold protection measures and is not willing to go to the gathering point, then the government will subsidize fuel on a per-household basis.

The first batch of subsidized fuel is 30 catties of coke per household, which is also received by household, one for each household.

Now that the fuel has been transported to the outside of the community, you can go directly to the queue with your ID proof.

As soon as these words were said, there was a burst of cheers from the crowd.

Many people jumped up happily, and some people cried with excitement on the spot.

This is the urgent need to solve how many people!

People spread out quickly, running to line up separately as required.

One is to take refuge at the gathering point, and the other is to collect fuel.

Because many people have to go home to pack their things, there are still relatively few people going to evacuate at this time, and those who stay are basically filling in the information.

Although there were few people, it was the most lively there, because once the news spread, the four buildings that were originally quiet were extremely lively at this time.

Lights began to flicker on every floor, along with shouts and laughter.

It can be seen that everyone is busy, and they all feel the joy from their hearts.

The soldiers who came to pick them up were fully prepared before coming here.

Especially for those who sign up to go to the gathering point, they will be handed a blanket as soon as they walk past.

It doesn't matter who comes to wear more or less, this blanket will really make people feel warm from the heart.

Not only that, because now some people have no winter clothes at all, and they have also made preparations for this.

If the registered person says that there are family members upstairs who cannot go downstairs because they have no clothes to wear, then a little soldier will immediately carry the prepared cold protection items and follow him upstairs to distribute them.

It can be said that everyone's problems have been thought of in advance.

In addition to signing up to go to the gathering point, there are also many people who go to collect fuel.

After all, going to the gathering point is still more troublesome. As long as the family can live on and can support for a while, no one wants to toss.

There were a lot of people coming down from the Shen family, and there was Liu Xiaofeng, so everyone decided to bring the fuel back together.

The car full of fuel is outside the community.

Because of the heavy snow, a donkey was used to pull the cart.

Pulling in front was a military jeep with big wheels that could barely walk even in the snow.

The Jeep trailed a small body full of coke pre-weighed in sacks.

There were not many people following the car, except for the driver, there was only a small soldier. Facing the longer and longer queue, it was very busy.

Fortunately, there are people from the community to help.

Regardless of the large number of people in the queue, the distribution speed is not slow. After a while, everyone received their own fuel.

Because he has been working in the working group, Gu Kai has some impression of the surrounding troops, especially the higher-level cadres, who are at least a little familiar.

But seeing that the cadre who was shouting just now had the title of two bars and two stars, he didn't know him at all, which made him a little curious.

So when he was getting the coke, he specifically asked the little warriors to ask, and only after this question did he know that they came from Qingzhou.

It turned out that because of the sudden catastrophe, the troops have been re-integrated and no longer stick to one side.

All unified deployment, where you need to go.

Bac Ninh City has a large resident population and a large area affected by the disaster. Many nearby troops were dispatched here to provide support.

Not only Qingzhou, but also troops from Jiangbei.

The military cap on the little soldier's head has been covered with a thick layer of snow, and he can't even see his true color.

He is only about twenty years old, but his face looks weathered.

There are two frozen red cheeks on his cheeks, which have been chapped.

His lips were even blue and white from the cold.

But the boy is in good spirits.

While distributing supplies to everyone, he also said all kinds of cheering words.

He repeatedly comforted everyone, saying that difficulties are temporary, with the country and the army, these disasters will soon pass.

Basically, everyone who came to collect the supplies was older than him, and many of them were the age of his father and grandfather.

Seeing the young man's cheerful state, listening to the comforting words he said, and looking at the frostbite on his face... Everyone felt a little uncomfortable and felt very distressed.

But at the same time, he was infected by his optimistic spirit, as if he really felt that the weather was just like that, nothing to be afraid of.

After picking up the things, Gu Kai and Liu Xiaofeng walked ahead with a bag of charcoal, while Father Shen and Shen Xi helped them beside them.

Shen Cong took two steps behind, and then stretched his hand into the down jacket.

Using the down jacket as a shield, she took out a small bottle of frostbite cream and several pieces of warm baby from the space.

Putting things into a paper bag, she thought about it before taking it out, and put some corn and sweet potatoes baked last night in it.

Because it was put into the space immediately after baking, the food was still piping hot.

Even through the paper bag, Shen Cong could smell the sweetness of sweet potatoes and the coke aroma of corn.

She turned around and walked back to the front of the team, then quietly stuffed it into the little soldier's coat pocket from behind.

The little soldier was bending over to distribute supplies to others. For convenience, the buttons under his military coat were not fastened, and the hem was open.

Coupled with the cold weather, the human body's response was a bit slow, so Shen Cong's movements did not attract his attention at all.

But such a move naturally could not hide the neighbors who were standing in line in front of him.

Seeing what Shen Cong did, everyone showed a tacit smile.

Others quietly gave her a thumbs up.

In order to prevent her behavior from being discovered, some people even deliberately asked the young man to talk to help her cover.

So much so that when Shen Cong put things away, everyone went all the way, and the little soldier realized that he had more things in his pocket.

When he looked for someone again, he couldn't find it.

This afternoon, the troops came again and began to recruit cleaners in the community.

The same is paid according to the wages of the entire labor force, whether it is food or points.

In addition, those admitted this time will also be provided by the government with hats, gloves, scarves and other materials to keep warm.

As soon as the news came out, people who signed up were very enthusiastic.

After a large number of people were involved in the cleaning work, the effect quickly became apparent.

Even though the snow was still falling, slowly, more roads began to appear on the street.

Even if the roads are narrow, they are covered with snow every now and then.

But when there are passersby, they can go out, and they will no longer be blocked and suffer at home.

Soon, the corridor became lively, and the sound of opening and closing the door could often be heard.

Looking down from the balcony, there were gradually pedestrians on the road, and everyone began to rush for a living again.

The city has regained its vitality.

Wei Yan came home one afternoon after a few days later, and he was brought back by Xiao Liang.

Said to be mixed back, but in fact it was almost the building that was carried on the back of Xiao Liang.

So much so that when he got home, without talking about him, Xiao Liang was too tired to speak.

Wei Yan, who was carried back, was miserable.

He was still wearing a military uniform on his upper body, and he held the military coat in his hand.

But he was wearing only a pair of hospital gown pants.

The trousers were single, and the trousers were torn at the legs in order to facilitate the application of medicine. How could such weather be tolerated?

Because it was too cold, there was even a blanket wrapped around the pants of the hospital gown.

This kind of dress, and the embarrassed appearance of being backed by Xiao Liang, directly confused everyone.

So that both of them entered the house, and the family members were still confused, and they didn't know what happened for a while.

In the end, it was Xiao Liang who spoke first.

While panting heavily, he said to everyone, "The Guards suffered frostbite a few days ago, and both calves and feet can't move very much now. The doctor told him to go home to recuperate, so I sent him back. "

As soon as they heard that Wei Yan had been frostbitten, the expressions of the family members all changed, and everyone immediately surrounded him.

This is her own niece and son-in-law. Cheng Ru has always treated Wei Yan as her own son.

Knowing that he was injured again, and it was so serious, the old lady squatted down directly.

Regardless of whether he was happy or not, he went up and took off the blanket he was wrapped in, and then lifted up his trouser legs.

Then, looking at the open skin, the old lady sucked in a breath of cold air, covered her mouth and cried.

Looking at Wei Yan like this, the old lady was really angry and distressed.

If I want to scold him a few words, it's not enough to feel distressed, so don't scold him, it's painful and painful.

In the end, I couldn't take it anymore, and while crying, I clenched my fists and patted him on his back several times.

Wei Yan naturally knew that he was making the old lady angry.

Even if he was beaten, he didn't dare to hide, let alone persuade him.

He could only admit that he was cowardly, screaming that he was in pain, while repeatedly explaining to his family that he was fine, that his feet were just frozen and not lame.

But this explanation made Cheng Ru's tears stop even more, and finally made Shen Xi cry.

Wei Yan was injured while cleaning the snow in Beicheng, and the skin and flesh below his calf were frozen.

Because of the redistribution of the troops, the members of their working group were also called back to the city and then assigned to be responsible for the maintenance of the road north of the city.

This is also the reason why Shen Cong and the others have returned to the community, but they have not found Wei Yan.

Although new troops have been dispatched to Bac Ninh, such a heavy snowstorm will not be enough.

Even though Wei Yan was now a deputy regimental cadre and had been seriously injured, he had to take the lead at this time.

Not only to work, but also to rush to the front of any dirty work.

Working in heavy snow, the most terrible thing is not tired, not cold, but frostbite.

After the hands and feet are frozen and lost consciousness, the frostbite is often not felt at all.

Wei Yan is like that.

It was only after a busy day that he was replaced to rest and found that his calf and both feet were frostbitten.

He was taken to the hospital by his comrades in the team at the time, and was then diagnosed by the doctor with second-degree frostbite.

However, although he was judged to be second-level frostbite, it was actually very close to third-level frostbite, and the degree of freezing was almost reaching the dermis.

After rewarming, large areas of blisters began to appear on the calf and feet, and even blood blisters appeared in some places.

The doctor said that if it is more serious, the feet are likely to be disabled.

Frostbite is very painful, and the pain of festering flesh is simply unbearable.

Even a steel man like Wei Yan, who had suffered many injuries, was sweating coldly from the pain at first, and he couldn't help groaning and shouting.

At that time, Xiao Liang, who came to take care of him when he got the news, wanted to inform his family, but was stopped by Wei Yan.

He even threatened and intimidated not allowing Xiaoliang to reveal the news, because he was afraid that his family would feel uncomfortable when they saw his embarrassed appearance.

According to Wei Yan's intention, he wanted to recover from the injury in the hospital and then quietly return to the army. He could hide this matter as much as he could, so that his family would not know.

Really can't hide it and wait for it to recover.

People can count as gods.

Recently, there are too many patients in the hospital due to frostbite, and patients like him who are out of danger and entering the recovery period have been "pushed" out.

No way, he had to let Xiaoliang send him home.

It was said that he had entered the recovery period, but in fact, Wei Yan's situation at this time was the most terrifying.

The original blisters or blood blisters have slowly burst, and they have all turned into ulcers.

The ulcers still had fluid seeping out at this time, and a small scab formed on the side.

In addition, the skin around the wound also changed color, blue and purple, and even the entire skin on the instep turned black.

Not to mention that several women in the family were about to cry, Jiashu and Gu Kai both had red eyes, and Father Shen was even more distressed, and the hand on his shoulder kept shaking.

Can't speak.

Seeing the whole family look like this, Wei Yan's face was lifeless.

This was really something he didn't want to see at all, and it was also a situation he was most afraid of.

If it weren't for the repeated warnings by the doctor that he was afraid that the ulcer surface would not be easy to grow, Wei Yan would not have shown the wound to everyone if he was killed.

But now - all of his worst fears have happened.

Although Cheng Ru hit a few times, her heart was really distressed.

In her mouth, she repeatedly said, "Sorry!" "Sorry!" Then she ran into the kitchen and tried to make a hot mouth for these two children.

But she was so uncomfortable, her hands were shaking and she couldn't even take out the pot. She stood in the kitchen and turned around several times, she just didn't know what to do for the two of them.

Seeing her mother like this, Shen Cong, who was relatively calm, had to walk over to help.

While the two of them were cooking in the kitchen, a few people outside were already making noise again to arrange accommodation.

With Wei Yan like this, he definitely couldn't let him live upstairs, it would be too inconvenient.

Father Shen meant to let his wife and eldest daughter and two children live in the past, and he and Wei Yan lived in the same room.

But Wei Yan refused to do anything, and insisted on making him a small bed in the living room, saying that he could sleep in the living room.

That old man Shen would be willing?

At this moment, he felt so bad for this niece-in-law that he didn't know what to do, so he just wanted to give him all the best.

But Wei Yan was in the same mood. He knew that he had already made the whole family uncomfortable, and he didn't want to cause trouble again.

So the old and the young were arguing over the issue of a bed.

Old man Shen was so angry that he almost hit someone!

In the end, Old Man Gu made a final decision and asked Gu Kai and Jiashu to move upstairs to move a bed down, and put him in the position where the balcony and the living room were connected.

Shen Cong brought back all the furniture in the community, and the Shen family would not lack a bed if they lacked anything, and even a single bed was comfortable and would never be dealt with.

In addition, when the house was renovated, the balcony was made of double-layer insulation glass, and all the walls of the house were installed with insulation layers.

In the words of the old man: "It's okay to live in the living room. It's warmer near the radiator. It's just that I can't sleep in in the morning, and Wei Yan doesn't sleep in at all. It's nothing to him.

" The problem was quickly resolved.

With the help of Shen Cong, Shen's mother quickly brought the two people a stewed egg with brown sugar and red dates that nourishes blood and qi.

Because the mood was fluctuating too much, the old lady was always thinking about putting brown sugar and red dates into the soup.

The soup made is so sticky that it can be drawn.

Shen Cong's eyelids twitched from the side, and he was deeply worried for the two people outside. He only thought that his mother was confinement for Wei Yan!

Can't drink this sugar water even during confinement?

It's almost like eating brown sugar dry.

- But she didn't dare to say it.

At this moment, the old lady has the word "irritable" written all over her body, who dares to provoke it?

When Wei Yan and Xiao Liang took the bowl, they looked at each other, their eyes were filled with fear, but no one dared to say a word, they all picked it up obediently and started to eat.

As a result, after taking a bite, the faces of the two of them...suddenly twisted so hard that they were about to tie a knot.

Xiao Liang stood up with the bowl and went to the kitchen, where Shen Cong quietly followed him and handed him a glass of warm water.

And Wei Yan - can't move, can't hide, has nowhere to hide.

Only under the attention of the old lady, I could honestly eat the whole bowl of sugar water one by one.

Seeing the distorted look on his face, Shen Xi, who was wiping away her tears just now, just laughed.

Chapter 115

When Xiao Liang came this time, in addition to sending Wei Yan home, he naturally had another mission, which was to bring Gu Kai back to the work group to continue working.

Heavy snow, cooling down, how many people were detained in the house, the freezing is one aspect, and many people will no longer have any food storage.

So spawning plants is once again imminent.

In addition to picking up Gu Kai, this time Xiao Liang directly picked up Shi Chen and Cancan.

Although it stands to reason that so much snow outside should not be short of water, but now people are very careful.

Without a particularly sophisticated instrument, no one knows what the snow is about and whether it will have side effects on the growth of crops, and no one dares to take risks.

So at this time, Cancan's water-type abilities are even more valuable.

After Gu Kai and the others left, the old man was bored in the room and couldn't come out.

Wei Yan's legs are now in the recovery period, and there is nothing else that needs special care except for dressing and changing the dressings on time every day.

What he needs now is to rest and wait for the wound to heal slowly.

So, in addition to supervising him to continue to practice breathing and breathing exercises every day, all we can do at home is to take care of his diet and keep an eye on him not to move.

There is not much that the old man needs to do.

It took the old man two days to sort out a batch of small prescriptions.

Those prescriptions are not complicated, and the required medicinal materials are not scarce varieties.

Even in the current environment, medicinal materials are not difficult to find.

But these recipes are hard to come by. Basically, the old man thought and modified them according to the current situation. It is more suitable for patients in extremely cold weather.

In addition to the prescriptions, the old man also sorted and classified the medicinal materials stored at home, and selected the most suitable ones for current use.

A person's ability is limited, and it is obviously impossible to rely on him or his family to produce large quantities of medicines, and the old man will naturally not do so.

After he sorted out the things, he called Shen Cong and Jiashu over and asked them to send these things to the regiment. If possible, it is best to hand them over to Liu Tuan in person.

The old man didn't explain too much, just handed the big bag into the hands of two people.

Looking at the heavy bag, Shen Cong knew the weight of these things.

It has been several years since my father-in-law started growing herbs at home after the earthquake, and he has devoted a lot of time and energy to the preparation of herbs.

Don't underestimate these herbs, they don't seem to have much weight, but they are the efforts of the old man for several years.

He's about to hand over most of them now.

"I'm not in good health now. In fact, I should go there in person. I need to talk about the usage of these things to be more at ease." The

old man slapped his leg and sighed softly.

The old man is already seventy-three this year. Even with the blessing of the formation, the age is here, and all aspects of physical fitness are definitely going downhill.

The loss that I suffered from the previous trip abroad has never been recovered.

Although there is no problem walking now, he has not even been out of the building for half a year.

Even if he had followed him down to deliver things to the neighbors twice before, he voluntarily went home first before he got to the bottom.

No one stopped him from going downstairs, but the old man never took this step.

What's not clear about this?

As for his love for Zhang Luo and his temperament to worry about everything, since doing so only shows that his body really can't bear it anymore.

"Okay, uncle, don't worry about leaving this job to me and sister-in-law. We promise to complete the task and hand these things over to Liu Tuan safely."

Jiashu patted his chest and made a promise to the old man.

Shen Cong didn't dare to say that.

"Dad, let's go to the regiment first, but who knows where Liu Tuan is now? Xiaoliang also said yesterday that he hasn't seen Liu Tuan for a long time.

I don't know which army he is with now. No, I'll send things to the hospital?"

Speaking of which, Shen Cong shook his head first.

"The health center can't do it. Their place is too small, and it may not be of much use to them."

"Send it to the city hospital!" Wei Yan interjected outside.

He was lying on the bed now, with his back against the pillow, and Cheng Ru put a small coffee table for him, with everything to eat and drink on it.

It belongs to -

I serve you with delicious food and drink, and you are honest and obedient to me!

You can do anything, but you can't get out of bed.

Listening to the conversation between the three of them in the house, Wei Yan was so anxious, but he couldn't get through.

At this moment, half of his body was sticking out of the bed, and he was about to fall to the ground.

He stopped outside and said, "Second sister, you don't have to go to the regiment, Liu Tuan is not necessarily there, even if he is delivering your stuff, he will still have to be sent to the hospital.

He doesn't know how to do it, you still have to leave it to him . One more procedure." The

old man actually didn't pay much attention to Wei Yan these days.

Before he spent so much energy to help him adjust his body, he really broke his heart for this child.

As a result, he didn't see it at a glance, and he almost ruined himself again.

Even if he knew that he was excusable, but seeing that he didn't know how to cherish himself so much, the old man was still angry.

Otherwise, it wouldn't be a few days without coming up to him and turning a blind eye to him.

Hearing what he said at this time, the old man snorted and didn't even go out, obviously he didn't want to talk to him.

Shen Cong and Jiashu did not dare to do so.

The two of them walked out of the house together and asked, "Then who should we send to the hospital to find? We are not familiar with the city hospital."

Speaking of which, the old man was the vice president of the Bac Ninh Traditional Chinese Medicine Hospital. If there is anything, it is easier to find acquaintances and more convenient to go to the traditional Chinese medicine hospital.

But in the last few years, every hospital has undergone tremendous changes, and no one knows what is going on inside.

Therefore, the old man would rather let them hand over things to Liu Tuan, who has no knowledge of medicines at all, rather than easily say which hospital to give things to.

I am afraid that it will be handed over to the wrong person, so that his hard work will not be used in the right place.

"Now that the city hospital has been taken over by the army, you can go to Li Jianfeng from the dermatology department. He used to be a military doctor in the regiment, and now he is in charge of the military medical services in the city.

Give him your things and explain the situation, and he can do the work. Okay."

Wei Yan said, looked into the room with his head again, then lowered his voice and said to the two people: "The hospital is now in a serious shortage of medicines, I don't know how happy you are going to Li Jianfeng, don't worry, Uncle What you want to do will definitely be done. You hurry up and don't let the old man get anxious."

With Wei Yan's words, Shen Cong and Jiashu naturally wouldn't delay any longer, and they went out immediately.

Now that the family tree already knows about the space, there is no need to hide it.

The two carried the big bag out of the house, and when they reached the stairs, Shen Cong put them all into the space.

Looking directly at Jiashu's eyes are full of envy.

I don't know if I felt a deviation, but when I went downstairs, Shen Cong looked up at the sky and said, "Why do I think the snow today is a little smaller?"

Hearing her words, Jiashu also looked up at the sky, then shook his head violently: "No. Sister-in-law, is this the reason why you haven't come downstairs for a few days?

You can't compare it to when we came back from the community that day. It's the biggest snowflake ever, and I haven't seen such a large snowflake since. But it's not too small now!"

He said, extending his arm.

After a while, the orange-red sleeves of the winter jacket were dyed white by those fine snow particles.

"Look, look, it's still small?" Jiashu pointed to her clothes and showed her.

Shen Cong glanced at it and said nothing.

No matter what Jiashu said, she really felt that the snow seemed to be slowly getting smaller.

Not to mention, when we went downstairs to collect coke a few days ago, everyone couldn't speak at all, and their mouths would be filled with snow as soon as they spoke.

But now, the family tree Luo Li has been talking for so long, but he has not seen his mouth gagged.

The two talked and walked out of the community facing the snow.

After leaving the community, Shen Cong's feelings became more obvious.

The largest road outside has now been completely cleared, with only a thin layer of snow on the road.

And this layer of snow is also being cleaned up. Several cleaners wearing reflective vests on both sides of the road are now spreading salt in the middle of the road with shovels.

It can be seen that the city has returned to normal operation, and everything is slowly moving towards the right path.

This time, the two took out the off-road vehicle at home and drove by Jiashu to the city hospital.

The location of the city hospital is very good. It is in the middle of Bac Ninh City. There are no paths along the way, so there are no places that are particularly difficult to walk.

The two walked quickly.

This time, instead of putting the car away, they drove to the hospital parking lot.

Although it was snowing heavily, people didn't go out without going out, but there were a lot of cars parked in the parking lot.

Of course most of them are military vehicles.

"It seems that there are quite a lot of people injured in the disaster relief last time!" Jiashu stopped the car, looked around and sighed.

"Let's go, hurry over." Shen Cong didn't answer, but took out the large package of medicinal materials from the space and carried the family tree to the outpatient building.

Is there still an answer to this question?

If you look at the environment outside, and then look at Wei Yan, you can see how much effort the army and the government have put in in places that no one can see.

The old man is angry with Wei Yan again, but he can immediately decide to donate his years of hard work. The biggest reason is not seeing the sadness he suffered?

Li Jianfeng is very easy to find.

The two of them carried things to the dermatology department, and they asked a little nurse at random. Someone pointed in the direction of the ward and said, "You go inside and find a doctor in military uniform."

Jiashu went over there . After looking at it, he clicked his tongue and said, "Sister-in-law, I'll look for something you're looking at here."

Shen Cong nodded.

Dermatology should be the department with the most patients in the entire hospital now, not to mention the ward, the corridors are full of people, and some people simply spread bedding on the ground and lie there directly.

It's really impossible to walk with such a big bag of medicine.

It didn't take long for Jiashu to go, and he soon led a military doctor and walked back.

He should have told the person about the situation in advance. When the person walked over, he was walking like flying, with light in his eyes.

Seeing him coming, Shen Cong didn't say much, just handed him the prescription summed up by the old man in the bag.

Then he pointed to the big package and said, "Dr. Li, these are what my father asked us to send over. These are a few recipes he wrote, as well as the medicinal materials that he has concocted in the past few years. I hope they can be of some use to you."

"It's definitely useful, it's very useful! Thank you Mr. Gu for helping me, I'm really grateful!"

Li Jianfeng held the prescriptions tightly in his hands, looking at Shen Cong and said sincerely.

Shen Cong raised her eyebrows: "You know my dad?"

Dr. Li suddenly smiled and said, "Is there anyone in our group who doesn't know Elder Gu or your family? We haven't dealt with each other before, but Brother Gu was injured before. The medicine I prescribed. Brother Gu is also very familiar with me."

Hearing this, Shen Cong smiled, and at the same time was really relieved.

She spoke in a relaxed tone at this time: "It's all in the same group, so it's really familiar. The main thing is that I haven't been sick before, so we haven't seen each other, but isn't it just meeting?

Dr. Li, this is me. Dad's hard work for several years, the old man has spent all his spare time on these medicinal herbs, you have to use it well, don't waste his heart."

"Of course." Li Jianfeng's expression suddenly became serious up.

"Sister Shen, don't worry, and let Gu Lao rest assured when you go back. I will make good use of them and definitely use them all in the most suitable place."

With Li Jianfeng's assurance, Shen Cong and Jiashu immediately felt that the burden they were carrying was gone. , the whole person has become a lot easier.

The two said goodbye to Li Jianfeng, and when they walked back, they looked around with energy.

But who would have thought, this look really made them see acquaintances.

"Sister-in-law, is that Liu Tuan?" Just when he got down to the second floor, Jiashu suddenly stopped and tugged on Shen Cong's sleeve.

"Liu Tuan? Where is it?" Shen Cong turned around.

Jiashu pointed to the row of chairs not far away: "The one sitting, why do I look so similar?"

Before he finished speaking, Shen Cong had already walked towards the person.

The man was sitting on a chair in the corridor of the ward at this time. He was wearing a military coat that was so dirty that the color could hardly be seen. He had no time to shave his beard. Lu'er, slumped on her forehead in a chaotic manner.

He raised his head and leaned against the wall behind the chair, his eyes were dark and haggard.

That is to say, Shen Cong and Liu Tuan have known each other for too long, and they are too familiar with each other, so they can recognize him at a glance.

Otherwise, this dress looks like a blind street in the past.

"Liu Tuan?" she called softly as she walked to the front.

Liu Tuan, who was closing his eyes for a nap, suddenly opened his eyes when he heard the sound, but his eyes were still a little erratic because he had just woken up.

He recognized Shen Cong after calming himself down, then quickly sat up straight and said, "Xiao Shen, why are you here?"

Shen Cong didn't answer him immediately, but looked at the door of the department, and then asked : "Cardiothoracic medicine... Liu Tuan, your heart is not feeling well?"

"It's okay." Liu Tuan waved to them: "It's not a big deal, don't worry."

For someone like him who can't be idle for a minute, all I ran to see my heart in my busy schedule. Is it a big deal?

Shen Cong muttered in his heart.

But she didn't refute, she winked at Jiashu, and then went directly to the doctor's office next to her.

"Alas!" Liu Tuan wanted to stop it from behind, but Shen Cong completely pretended that he didn't hear it.

As soon as she entered, she saw Xiao Zhang, Liu Tuan's driver and civil servant.

At this time, Xiao Zhang was standing next to the doctor with a large number of various examination results in his hand, listening to him.

Xiao Zhang and Shen Cong also knew each other very well before. When they saw her, they were surprised at first, and then they immediately showed an expression like they had seen their relatives.

Shen Cong nodded at him, then stood beside him.

"He is suffering from myocardial ischemia caused by over-fatigue, and now it's just a pain in the heart curve. If he doesn't pay attention, it will easily cause other diseases. If it turns into coronary heart disease, the myocarditis will be troublesome!" The

doctor looked at Liu Tuan's The diagnosis result, he warned the two seriously.

Xiao Zhang nodded again and again, and then said to the doctor, "I'll try my best, doctor, please prescribe more medicine for our regiment leader. I promise to keep an eye on him and finish the medicine every day!"

Hearing this, the doctor put down his hand. The pen looked at him speechlessly.

"The most important thing for his illness is to rest! He must stop working immediately, rest in peace, and can't get out of bed! This is something that can be solved by taking medicine? No matter how much medicine you take, it's still useless if you don't take a good rest."

Xiao Zhang anxiously His face turned red.

He glanced at Shen Cong helplessly, and whispered: "If I could watch over him and prevent him from working, I wouldn't have come to the hospital."

Shen Cong fully understood Xiao Zhang's mood at this time, Just like when they saw Wei Yan before.

She sighed, stepped forward and said, "Doctor, you can prescribe medicine for us first, and we will find a way to solve the problem of rest."

Hearing her words, the doctor lowered his head and prescribed medicine without mentioning it.

After taking the prescription, Shen Cong and Xiao Zhang confessed a few words.

Xiao Zhang immediately showed a hesitant expression, and asked with a tangled face: "Is this okay?"

"It's okay." Shen Cong patted his shoulder twice and comforted: "Just let him stay at home for a few days. , let my dad help him take care of his body.

If there is any urgent matter, you can find someone to bring a message to the house, and we will send him there immediately. It's

not that you haven't been in Fulin, and it's not that you don't know the way, go from Fulin Anywhere is convenient."

After listening to Shen Cong's words, Xiao Zhang was silent for a while, then gritted his teeth and said, "Okay, Sister Shen, I'll make a mistake and violate the order first. Our regiment leader has not closed his eyes for two consecutive days and nights. Well, he's really tired.

If I bring him back to the regimental headquarters again, he will never rest for a minute. "

"Okay, leave it to us." When he is better, I will personally send him back, don't worry. "Shen Cong promised Xiao Zhang.

After negotiating with Xiao Zhang and covering him and sneaking away quietly while Liu Tuan was unprepared, Shen Cong returned to the waiting area.

At this time, Liu Tuan had been chatting with Jiashu for a long time.

Jiashu He should have told him about the drug delivery. Liu Tuan looked very happy, and even the expression on his face was much better than when they saw him just now.

His eyes were full of energy.

Seeing Shen Cong coming over , Liu Tuan stopped communicating with Jiashu, showing a helpless expression.

He said, "I said it's not a big deal, just rest and rest, you still believe it. I know my body, it's healthy, there's nothing wrong with it.

Shen Cong didn't refute, but nodded along with his words and said, "It's not a big deal . I just went in and listened, and the doctor said that you are suffering from myocardial ischemia caused by excessive fatigue, and you can recover with a good rest. Hearing this ,

Liu Tuan immediately became happy, and even brought a bit of smugness on his face.

He smiled and said, "Yes, I just said it's fine, don't worry about it, don't be there on such a cold day Stay outside and go back early. "

"Okay, let's go together." "

Shen Cong said, handed the medicine collection list in his hand to Jiashu, and said to him: "This is the medicine Liu Tuan wants to take, you go and get it for him, we will wait for you in the lobby on the first floor. After hearing this, Liu Tuan looked around in surprise: "

Where is Xiao Zhang, where did you go, didn't you see him just now?" How can I let you go to get the medicine, let him go. Boy, where did this go? "

"Xiao Zhang, I let him go back." Doesn't it mean that the group is busy now? Let him go back to work, can't we accompany you here? "

As Shen Cong said, he waved at Jiashu: "Hurry up, don't let Liu Tuan wait."

Jiashu was also confused by Shen Cong's incident, but he cleverly didn't raise any questions, and accepted After passing the diagnosis sheet, he turned around and ran away.

Liu Tuan had already figured it out at this moment, he was so angry that he turned around twice in a row, and then he stretched out a finger and nodded at Shen Cong with a speechless face.

"Curse" and say, "Make up your own mind!"

Shen Cong didn't answer, but changed the subject and said, "My dad is an internal medicine specialist, you know? Treating cardiovascular disease is his specialty.

Go back and ask him to take a pulse. I'll give you two pairs of medicines for conditioning, and in a few days, nothing will really happen."

Seeing that Liu Tuan was still talking, Shen Cong didn't give him a chance to speak: "Don't stare at me. Eyes, I'm not Xiao Zhang, I'm not afraid of you. If you stare at me, I'll tell Gu Kai when I go back and see if he will give you a face."

Liu Tuan was not angry, nor did he laugh.

"There are really a lot of things in the regiment, and no one is in charge." He tried his best to suppress his emotions, and said to Shen Cong in a gentle tone as much as possible.

"I told Xiao Zhang just now, and asked him to go back and tell the people in the regiment that if there is an urgent matter, let them go directly to the house. Which of the Fulin and the others don't know each other? There is no difference between working at home and working in the regiment.

Anyway, the doctor said You must rest. Even if you are in the regiment, you must not run around the world.

You are at home and my dad is watching, it is better than staying in the regiment.

Otherwise, if something happens, there will be no one to take care of. If something really happens to you, how will we explain to my sister-in-law in the future?"

Liu Tuan's expression finally softened a little after listening to Shen Cong's family.

The face is not so dark.

He sighed: "What about your family? Didn't I cause trouble in the past!"

"It's okay, it's all trouble anyway, one more is not much, one less is not a lot." Shen Cong's face was indifferent.

Seeing that Liu Tuan didn't understand, she explained again: "Wei Yan is also at home, and he is also strictly required by the doctor to stay in bed and rest in bed.

The two days my parents and my father-in-law are staring at him, he can't bear it anymore. You just happened to be a companion for the two of you in the past."

Chapter 116

It was just for Shen Cong and Jiashu to go to the hospital to deliver medicine, who would have thought that they would bring back one person!

When the Shen family saw Liu Tuan, they were all a little confused.

It was Shen's mother Cheng Ru who reacted first. She asked in surprise, "What's wrong with you, Liu Tuan, why are you looking so ugly? Is this sick?"

Since Wei Yan was carried back by someone, the old man The wife now looks at everyone's face first, for fear that anyone else will be injured or sick.

Everyone started laughing at her as a soldier, but unexpectedly, she actually met another one.

Although Liu Tuan repeatedly stated that he had nothing to do with it, after listening to Shen Cong and Jiashu's explanation, he said it was useless.

Without saying a word, the old lady pressed him onto the sofa and sat down. She entered the kitchen and brought a bowl of ham and cabbage soup and stuffed it into his hand.

Because Wei Yan was still recovering from his illness, and the stove was burning all day at home, the soup would never stop at any time.

The old lady simply watched the time supplementing Wei Yan's nutrition, and served him a bowl of soup every two hours. He had only eaten for a few days, and his face was full of flesh.

Didn't Liu Tuan come to take advantage of it?

Holding the bowl of soup and smelling the rich meat fragrance that he hadn't smelled for a long time, Liu Tuan subconsciously swallowed, and then looked at Mother Shen with a shocked expression, not knowing what to say.

When is this?

A bowl of broth at this time is so precious!

He was really reluctant to take it.

"Don't look at it, just drink it now. My aunt will be annoyed if you linger for a while, and you will feel good about it.

This is my aunt's collection. It's an old ham that has been stored for several years. Ordinary people don't have this kind of good fortune.

" With Liu Tuan like this, Wei Yan leaned on the bed and laughed twice before speaking slowly.

Mother Shen also said, " Hurry     up and eat, you must be full of cold air when you come back from outside. It is better to drink a bowl of soup to warm your stomach than to warm your stomach with your internal organs." As an old Chinese doctor, Mother Shen speaks in a certain way now.

Hearing what she said, Liu Tuan couldn't refuse any more. He quickly thanked him and took a sip from the bowl.

The soup was simmered with ham bones, and there wasn't much meat in it. But because the stewing time is long enough, it is definitely tasty enough.

Although there was no meat in the soup, it contained the tenderest cabbage hearts just picked and fresh corn cut into small pieces.

These two things are good at raising freshness, and when paired with the rich aroma of the ham, it is really salty, fragrant, and sweet, all at once.

Liu Tuan took a sip of the soup in his mouth, only to feel that the taste was so good that he couldn't bear to swallow it.

He couldn't help but let out a "hmm" and narrowed his eyes in enjoyment.

Seeing him like this, Shen's mother was also very happy.

He ran to the stove again and brought out a plate of small tortillas that were baked with residual heat inside, and placed it on the coffee table in front of Liu Tuan, signaling him to eat it together.

It is said to be a tortilla, but the method of making this cake is different from ordinary tortillas.

Because a little baking powder is added in it, milk powder and sugar are also added, so it is more similar to the way of bread, softer and chewier than ordinary pancakes.

The sweetness, the soft corn cakes on the outside and the soft inside, accompanied by the fresh and fragrant broth, that taste - really Liu Tuan has not enjoyed it for a long time.

Now that he has started eating, he is no longer polite.

After burying his head and saying nothing, he ate a round belly in one breath, extremely satisfied.

While he was eating, the family was already busy again.

With just his clothes, you don't need to look at it to understand how long it has been since he took a bath.

Father Shen didn't say a word. He took a small stove out of the bedroom and put it directly into the bathroom. After raising the stove, he hung the shower curtain.

Because the room is well sealed, no matter how low the outside temperature is, with this stove for at most half an hour, the temperature in the bathroom can reach about 20 degrees.

Although this temperature was considered cold in the past, it can be said to be quite warm now.

If there is hot water, it is no problem to take a shower.

There is no shortage of hot water in the house, no matter what, there is a stove burning 24 hours a day.

What's more, Shen Cong received so much rain in the earliest days, and it has not been used up until now.

In addition, even if Cancan went to work in the regiment, she deliberately left several large buckets of water before she left. The two families are now in no shortage of water for meals or living.

So, when Liu Tuan had eaten and drank well, wiped the sweat from his head, and was about to say a few words of thanks, he was called to the bathroom by Father Shen.

After stuffing him a suit of family tree clothes, he closed the door and went out.

So Liu Tuan took a hot shower after a full meal.

When he was clean and refreshed and put on the hot clothes, then shaved his face with the razor of the family tree, and walked into the room again in comfort, Liu Tuan really had a moment, feeling In a trance of not knowing where you are.

He turned his head to look at Wei Yan, and Wei Yan looked at him with a clear smile, followed by a smile full of pride and show.

It doesn't need to be said at all, anyone who looks at it can see it clearly, this kid is showing off naked -

is my home okay? Is my home comfortable? Is my family amazing?

Seeing that Liu Tuan couldn't hold back, he laughed directly.

He walked over and patted Wei Yan's forehead with his hand, scolding: "You are so beautiful."

Wei Yan wasn't angry either, he laughed loudly: "It's not just me, but you're too beautiful now?"

Liu Tuan, who spoke straight, had to nod his head.

"This is how people live!" He sat down beside Wei Yan's bed and sighed.

The smile on Wei Yan's face subsided slightly.

He turned his head and looked out of the balcony, looking at the still dense small snow particles, and said softly but firmly: "It will get better, such days will become the norm."

Liu Tuan followed his gaze to the outside, He didn't answer, but nodded solemnly.

The two sides quarreled again over how to sleep at night.

Liu Tuan was determined to live in one of the other two houses.

His reason is very simple - there is no shortage of anything there, there are beds and quilts, as long as you take a stove, it will be a good life.

There is absolutely no need to cause trouble to the family, and there is no need to re-squat the bed.

But the Shen family resolutely refused to do it.

Just kidding, what did he go to the hospital for?

It was a heart problem.

If you let him live in that empty house alone, why don't you just let him live in the regiment!

Anyway, there is a small photo to watch.

What's more, why is there nothing missing?

Those two houses have everything, but how long have they been inhabited?

It is estimated that the bedding in the house is so damp that the water can be wringed out.

How does this live!

The two sides talked for a long time, no one would let the other, and they had been arguing.

Finally, the family tree made a suggestion.

Jiashu said that he moved to live in Shichen's room next door, since Shichen is not at home anyway, even if they come back, the two of them can live in one room.

To give Liu Tuan the bed in the same room as the old man now is convenient for the old man to take care of him, and it will not make a big deal of moving the bed to make room.

convenient for each other.

His proposal was finally unanimously approved.

So Liu Tuan also stayed at the Shen's house.

What Xiao Zhang said before is not an exaggeration. He said that if Liu Tuan went to the house, it would be very lively at home every day.

Even if the officers on the regiment's side were stuck and could share a little, there were still many things that had to be decided by Liu Tuan.

As a result, on the second day after Liu Tuan moved into Shen's house, the family began to flow in an endless stream.

When Father Shen went to water the vegetables early in the morning, he opened the iron gate on the eighteenth floor, just as he expected this to happen.

But he still didn't expect that the people coming and going would not stop for more than ten hours from seven or eight in the morning until seven or eight in the evening.

Even though the stove in the house was burning hot all the time, the living room was no longer warm because of the people who came and went. Even Wei Yan was forcibly ordered by the old man to move to Father Shen's room to live temporarily.

Liu Tuan was very sorry, and several times he proposed to leave with others, but his family refused.

Shen's father and Shen's mother kept preparing boiling water for him and others, and even stuffed a cake or two from time to time.

Because I don't watch them busy this day, I really can't feel how many people have made great efforts in places that everyone can't see.

Liu Tuan didn't stay at the Shen family for too long, and on the third day he couldn't stay any longer.

Because the old man gave him a course of Chinese medicine for seven days, he was forcibly held by Shen's father and Shen's mother for a few days.

But later, someone from the regiment said that the second batch of fuel and materials distributed by the headquarters had arrived in Bac Ninh.

Not to mention Liu Tuan, even Wei Yan couldn't hold back, so the next day he ignored the family's obstruction and returned to the regiment.

They left in a hurry, and even the Chinese medicine that Liu Tuan was going to eat that day was brought by Shen Cong after Mother Shen had cooked it.

The reason why Shen Cong went to the regiment was not simply to deliver medicine to Liu Tuan. She and Tong Tong were also notified and recruited to participate in the construction of the greenhouse.

Now there are more and more cooperation projects between the country and E country, and the materials received are also increasing.

Just like burning coal, in addition to supplying the normal consumption of ordinary people, what we have received now has enough energy to supply the needs of agricultural greenhouses.

Now the snow has finally stopped, but there is no sign of the temperature rising.

In this case, all people can do is adapt to the environment and learn to survive in the new environment.

This is actually not difficult for everyone.

Back then, the heat and drought lasted for more than two years. Didn't everyone survive?

What's more, there is now state support.

Shen Cong and Tong Tong first went to the vegetable base of the Agricultural College.

Because it was the earliest planting base affiliated to the Agricultural College, it is the strongest in the city in terms of resource support and area, including the ability of the staff at the base.

Therefore, they are also the places that provide the most food for the city.

At least one-third of the food for the citizens now comes from here.

This time, the city has decided to build ten new large greenhouses at the base of the Agricultural College.

Said to be the latest model, in fact, it is not much new, but relatively speaking.

Because the infrastructure was destroyed during the earthquake, there is still a huge gap in production and demand for building materials.

But fortunately, the materials sent by the country this time include light steel as well as coal, as well as tempered glass and a large amount of agricultural film that are indispensable for the construction of greenhouses.

Shen Cong and Tong Tong stayed at the Agricultural College for a whole week, and they were mainly responsible for bending the light steel to the proper angle.

Because there are not enough tools now, and the daily power supply time is not long, sometimes the ability is more convenient to use than the machine.

A week later, the work on the agricultural college side was finished, and the two got a day off for them to go home to rest and change their clothes, and then agreed to gather together on Monday to go to the community.

When I heard that I went back to the community, not to mention Shen Cong, even Tong Tong became happy.

Don't look at the little guy's age, he has been working hard at the base these days.

I was often exhausted at the end of the day, and many times when I went back to the dormitory, uncles from a work group brought me back.

After a week, I can't see the toot meat on the child's face, everyone seems to be smoking, and it seems to have grown a lot.

Seeing him like this, Shen Cong was still a little worried, afraid that the old man and the old lady would feel bad for her grandson when she returned home, and she would be scolded by herself.

It wasn't until the leader of the working group said that the next location was the community, and then the little guy jumped three feet high and seemed to be in a bad mood, that Shen Cong's heart finally calmed down.

Yu Tongtong thought of Cancan, who had not seen each other for almost a month, and her husband.

They have only been out for a week, and they are already so tired. I wonder what is going on with the three people who left early?

The work team's car took their aunts and nephews to the gate of Fulin and left, holding hands and walking back slowly.

After not coming back for a week, Shen Cong and Tong Tong felt the difference outside again.

They found that the snow in the community had been shoveled away, and the roads between the four buildings were all connected, except that the square in the middle had been cleaned up.

And now the courtyard is no longer silent, and they encountered several neighbors on the way back.

Everyone dressed like cotton bales and walked awkwardly on the road, but everyone looked busy and obviously had something to do.

After entering the building, Shen Cong took Tongtong to the stairs subconsciously.

But before taking two steps, the little guy suddenly stopped, dragged her and shouted loudly: "Auntie, Auntie, do you see if the elevator can be used?!"

Shen Cong was stunned.

Without waiting for her to shake Shen'er, Tongtong had already pulled her to the front of the elevator, only then did she realize that the elevator was indeed electrified.

The buttons are all lit.

Tongtong cheered and reached out to press, and the elevator door opened in response.

The two of them got on the elevator, and when they came down from the nineteenth floor, they were still a little unsure, they just felt like it was a dream.

They've only been away from home for a week, what the hell is going on outside?

The whole family was overjoyed to see them back.

Shen Xi immediately hugged his son, and kissed the little face for a while, and Tong Tong, who was directly kissed, felt embarrassed.

And Shen Cong immediately asked the doubts in his heart: "Dad, Mom, is the elevator working now? Is there a call from our community?"

"Yes, there is a call." Father Shen replied cheerfully.

Then he took the coat that his daughter took off, and said with a smile, "It's also your luck. If you come back ten minutes later, the elevator will stop running.

It's a coincidence that you are in time.

" That's for sure! Now the electricity in our city is so tight, it would be very good to be able to supply electricity for the elevators for two hours each morning and evening, but it's a blessing!"

After listening to his father's explanation, Shen Cong knew that, because The second batch of resources from the country was delivered, and Liu Tuan said that the supply of civil electricity will be restored soon.

Although we can only supply electricity for two hours each day in the morning and evening, and the elevator has already used electricity, everyone is very satisfied.

These two hours are the peak hours of commuting, and we have been able to solve big problems for everyone.

In addition, it is said that the tap water pipeline is also being repaired, and it is believed that the supply of tap water will be restored soon.

At that time, people's normal life can also be basically guaranteed.

"Did you know that a lot of the people who went to the temporary gathering point first came back. They got the clothes to keep out the cold, and then they got the fuel, and now they're basically going home. I

heard that there are a lot of people in that group. A blessing in disguise, I was recruited to participate in the construction of the greenhouse when I was at the gathering point.

This is good, and even the problem of eating has been solved. Xiaokai said that the greenhouse is a long-term project that may last for half a year or even longer. It's like finding a regular worker, and I won't be short of food or drink for a long time."

Shen's mother said this and sighed: "You said, is the girl who hanged before the third building stupid? God, really just stay for a few more days, and life will be better.

How can she be so unconfident in the future?"

Everyone was silent for a while when the old lady said what she said.

In fact, sometimes this is the case. Maybe hope is not far away, but it is temporarily invisible.

Some people can get through it, but some people are just a little bit short, but finally give up.

Thinking about the people who have passed away for various reasons before, everyone feels a little uncomfortable.

Shen Cong changed his clothes, took a sip of the ginger and honey water that his mother handed over, and then took up what his mother just said and asked, "Mom, has Gu Kai been back in the past few days?"

"Have you been back, he and Shi Chen The two brothers and sisters came back together. Hey, they said they came back, but they didn't stay long, not even staying at home for one night.

I came back to take a shower, changed clothes and left. They said they were going to the mountains this week and would not be able to come back until the end of next week.

But they seem to be going back to the community next week. I listened to Cancan talking, saying that they went directly to the community from the mountains, and then came back from the community. "

"We're going to the community too!" Let's go the next morning! "

Because she was going back to the community, Tongtong was already happy all the way, and when she heard that her uncle and Cancan were also going, she was even happier.

She called out from the house.

"Ah? You are still going! "Mother Shen looked at her daughter with surprise in her voice.

"Well, we just came back to take a bath and change clothes." But we are stronger than them and can stay at home for an extra day. "

Hearing that her husband and the others are also going to the community, Shen Cong was quite happy.

"I'm going too!" I'm going back to the neighborhood too! I want to go home! "

Shan Shan was already very envious when she heard what her brother had done at the base with her.

But because her family had told her before that her brother was going to work and doing business, so she didn't make trouble.

So the little girl kept holding it back.

Now that she heard that her aunt and brother were going back to the community, the little girl quit.

In Cancan's heart, the community was the real home. After being out for so long, she had long thought Home.

Seeing that the little girl was making trouble, Shenxi hurried to persuade her, but it was better if she didn't persuade her

. It's been half a year since we came out, and we don't know what's going on at home now? I would also like to go back and see. "Mother Shen hesitated and said.

Listening to what her mother said, Shen Xi also interjected: "That is, we have been out for a long time, and the weather is basically like this now, although it will not warm up for a while. , but at least it doesn't look like it's getting worse.

If we go back, we won't be able to live. If we can't, let's go back to the community, right? Even if you go back and have a look.

If the conditions there are too bad, let's wait for Gonggong and Xiaokai to finish their work before coming back together. It's not a big deal if you have a car. "

Then you Uncle Gu..." Father Shen was still a little hesitant.

"I'll go back with you ." "The old man made a final decision.

"I can't help you by staying here in this weather. It's really uncomfortable to detain me on the roof of this building every day." I went back to the community with me, and I was able to walk around the courtyard anyway, and I was also active. "

How many old people are willing to hold on to the top of the building?

Who wouldn't want to have a yard for a stroll?

Even if Fulin has an elevator now, there are only four floors, and the ground downstairs is still so slippery, don't say The old     man, even Father Shen and Mother Shen are unwilling to go downstairs unless they have to.

For fear that a fall will cause trouble for the family. Going back to the community is different.

It's in my own courtyard, and that place is much bigger than Fulin!

What's more, there are familiar neighbors, who can talk together and walk around.

Not to mention that everyone doesn't feel it yet, it is said that the whole family The spirit of the head was hanged. For the

rest of the time, everyone started to pack up and prepare for going home.

In fact, for Shen Cong, including Gu Kai, most of the days after that will definitely be accompanied by the working group. Each base participates in production and construction.

Occasional leisure time, whether it is returning to the community or returning to Fulin, makes no difference to them.

So since everyone wants to go home, Shen Cong will not disapprove.

Pack up the things in Fulin . That's right, I handed over a set of house keys to Zhou Ying and his wife again, and the whole family set off early the next morning, heading towards the community.

There are children and elderly people in the car, and there are natural laughter and laughter along the way.

Shen Cong followed his father's car and walked on the familiar road.

Listening to Shan Shan's singing coming from the car in front of her, she was in a trance for a moment, and couldn't help but remember the incident when the family tree met Blizzard.

Just when she was still sighing in her heart, she heard the family tree sitting next to her saying, "Why is it like a dream? It's been so long, everything has changed."

He said, pointing not far away: "Sister-in-law, do you remember? That's where our car broke down. I really thought at the time that we might not be able to make it through, who knows..."

He sighed with emotion: "I really dare not think about it, then We've all survived the difficulties ."

"No matter how difficult it is, we can survive it. It's more than a heavy snowfall. We've had few difficulties before, haven't we all come over?

" , don't say those depressing words. I am so old and still full of confidence in the future, how can you, a child, get so many sighs?"

After saying this, Jiashu sat up straight.

He turned his head and retorted loudly with a smile: "Uncle, don't wrong me, I'm full of confidence in the future!

Yesterday, my aunt told me to introduce me to a partner, saying that the girl is beautiful. Good day for me. It's still to come! I'm full of hope!"

His words caused Shen Cong and the old man to burst into laughter.

Yeah, whatever happened, those are over.

The days to come will only get better and better, and hope is ahead.
