Chapter 38: Hurry

On the highway, Liu Qiang and his wife Sun Xiangxiang were moving forward with the convoy transporting supplies.

Sun Xiangxiang is a woman after all, her body is not as strong as a man, she was busy for a long time last night in order to stock up, and at this time she had some backache, she gently rubbed her shoulders and arms over and over again, and said: "In previous years, before the New Year, this road came and went to visit relatives or delivery vehicles, and you can't see the end at a glance, you look at the present, it's empty, and you can't see a car for a long time." ”

"You don't look at what time it is, where will there be private cars and delivery vans? If we don't donate supplies, where will we be able to get on the highway. ”

"Alas......" Sun Xiangxiang sighed, "The impact of the epidemic is too great, and many people in the town who are doing small businesses outside are now worried about their mouths and hair turning white, and they don't know how much they have to lose." ”

Liu Qiang said: "No, after a year, I expect to make money in the next two months before and after the New Year!"

The two of them talked about each other, and saw the service area in front of them from a distance.

It has been driving on the road for four hours in a row, and the convoy will definitely have to rest here, even if it is in a hurry to deliver supplies, it is not possible to drive fatigue and be prone to accidents.

When the trucks entered the service area one by one, Liu Qiang heard the reminder of paying attention to protection on the radio, and there were epidemic prevention workers outside to check the documents of the people who came and went one by one and measure their body temperature.

But the service area where you usually have to queue up to go to the toilet, but now there are no people, there are only a few cars parked there in the parking lot, Liu Qiang glanced at it, and saw a car with the logo of Wubei TV station, at this time there were a few people standing next to him and saying something, however, he didn't think much about it, "Xiangzi, I'll go to the toilet, you go inside and wait for me first, see if there is anything to eat." ”

Sun Xiangxiang nodded and walked towards the shopping area in front.

In front of the door, there was a sign saying "Please wear a mask when entering the store", and the service staff took her temperature with a forehead thermometer.

Sun Xiangxiang walked in and found that there was nothing in the counter, which usually had a variety of meals.

She approached the waiter and asked, "No meals are provided now?"

"In this situation, where do you dare to eat outside, even if someone dares to eat, we don't dare to sell it!"

"Oh, yes, then I'll have to buy some bread and ham sausages. ”

Just walking into the shopping supermarket, Sun Xiangxiang was a little confused.

In the shopping supermarket in the usual service area, there are not only ready-to-eat products such as bread, but also snacks and specialties from all over the world, and the shelves full of shelves cannot be placed, but at this time, most of the shelves are empty, and only a small amount of inventory is left, which is sparsely placed on it.

She shuttled through the middle of the shelves, there was no instant bread at all, only some products that didn't sell much.

At this time, Liu Qiang also came in, and he was a little stunned when he saw the situation here: "What is the situation!"

Sun Xiangxiang said helplessly: "It's probably more difficult to buy goods during this period, don't care so much, whether it's snacks or anything, you have to buy something to eat, otherwise you won't be hungry and dizzy after driving for four or five hours on the road?"

"It's okay, at this time, don't pay so much attention. If you can eat two bites, just stick to Wubei!"

The cashier's service staff on the side also interjected: "In the days before and after the lockdown, many people on the road were eating and drinking on the way to buy things in the service area. At this time, it is difficult to buy, these are the last stocks, and it is estimated that if someone comes later, they will not be able to buy anything! Alas!

Liu Qiang and Sun Xiangxiang glanced at each other, didn't say more, and quickly picked something that could fill their stomachs and settled the account.

The two returned to the car, and Liu Qiang went to the back seat to rummage for mineral water, and suddenly exclaimed.

Sun Xiangxiang jumped: "What's wrong?"

Liu Qiang rummaged in the box in the back seat, dragged out a bag, and said, "What do you see this? It must have been prepared for us by my mother, but I forgot to tell us!"

Sun Xiangxiang rummaged through the contents of the bag, and saw that there were baked cakes, bacon, and self-filled sausages in it, and immediately laughed: "It's still prescient for Mom!"

The two were very happy, Liu Qiang thought for a while and said: "We didn't buy anything, others don't know if there is anything to eat, you take out enough for us to eat, and I will send the rest to them!"

"Okay!"

Sun Xiangxiang carefully divided the food, and Liu Qiang went to the convoy with the bag.

"Brother Wang, how is it? Have you eaten?"

Wang Liyang snuffed out the cigarette butt and sighed, "I went to the service area just now to take a look, and there was nothing! Just a few snacks, I'm a big man, how can I eat that thing!"

Liu Qiang heard this and hurriedly handed over the bag in his hand, "This is what my mother-in-law gave me to eat on the road, you can see which driver brother hasn't eaten, take it to divide it, so it's better to fill your stomach." ”

"Oh, this ...... What's so embarrassing about that?"

"What's so embarrassing, I have enough food left in my family's mouth, you can take it and share it. Who knows if there is no food in this service area! You can't drive hungry and it's not safe!"

"That's okay, thank you, brother!"

"Brother Wang, you're welcome!"

Wang Liyang took it to greet everyone, Liu Qiang returned to the car, followed Sun Xiangxiang and the two of them ate with mineral water, closed their eyes and squinted for a while, but as if in the blink of an eye, an hour passed, and Wang Liyang came to greet Liu Qiang to leave.

Liu Qiang squeezed his eyes and forcibly drove away the sleepiness.

Don't look at it, I only slept for a while, but the effect was great, and after a while, Liu Qiang recovered his spirits.

The lead car of the convoy has already left the service area, and other vehicles have followed.

"Let's go!" Liu Qiang also started the car, ready to follow.

At this moment, a voice suddenly came from outside the car window: "Please wait!"

The couple was stunned and looked out at the same time.

A woman and two men stood outside, looking at them expectantly.

Liu Qiang was stunned, wasn't this the person standing next to the TV station car just now? He rolled down the window and asked, "You guys...... What's the matter?"

A few people were a little embarrassed, but they didn't seem to have any other way, so they still said: "Brother, we are from Wubei TV, and we went here to do an interview, but I didn't expect that there was something wrong with the car, and we couldn't repair it, so we had to find someone to help...... I heard that you are going to Wubei, can you take us for a ride?"

After he finished speaking, the woman next to him handed over her press card to prove her identity, and said: "Hello, my name is Yang Lin, I am a reporter from Wubei TV, we were originally going to wait here for someone from the TV station to pick us up, but suddenly there was a rush interview ...... over there."

Liu Qiang scratched his head, he borrowed a double-row refrigerated truck, but he could take it, but only two people could sit in the back, which was quite crowded.

"I'm happy to help, but, as you can see, there are only two people sitting in the back, you ......"
