Chapter 195: After the Earthquake

When Bai Xiaojiu rushed downstairs, Qiu Zhuping was chatting with the neighbors next to her, and everyone was a little at a loss.

As soon as she saw Bai Xiaojiu going downstairs with her coat and backpack, Qiu Zhuping seemed to have found the backbone, instantly pounced, hugged her, and quickly let go, patting her on the back, "Are you stupid? You still have to stay in the earthquake! Nothing is as important as your life!"

"I'm fine, it's not like it's still a little cold. When Bai Xiaojiu ran down, he felt that the stairs were also shaking, and he was afraid for a moment.

But when he ran downstairs, he noticed that the ground was shaking, and even the cars parked on the road were shaking, and he suddenly calmed down.

Anyway, it's dangerous to look upstairs and downstairs, and if you can't escape anywhere, it's useless to run.

"The tremor was too strong. The magnitude of the earthquake is definitely high!"

"No, I remember an earthquake when I was a kid. It's horrible. ”

The people around him were chatting, Bai Xiaojiu also heard a lot, Qiu Zhuping obviously also heard it, holding Bai Xiaojiu's hand tightly, showing an expression of memory, "I have also experienced earthquakes in my hometown before. It's better than that, though, it's a little smaller. Natural disasters are scary. ”

Bai Xiaojiu could feel Qiu Zhuping's hand trembling slightly, and she was also a little cold, knowing that she was a little scared, so she kept talking to relieve her emotions, and her mouth responded: "Hmm." And then what?"

He pulled one of his hands out of her hand, and shook out a coat with one hand and draped it over her.

Qiu Zhuping was wrapped in a coat, the whole person warmed up, and her fear eased a lot.

Bai Xiaojiu felt that her hand holding her was not so tight, slowly broke free, and wrapped her coat tighter for her, "Don't catch a cold." ”

"It's okay, it's okay, you kid, don't go downstairs so slowly in the future to get clothes. Qiu Zhuping was wrapped tightly in her coat, the whole person was much warmer, and patted the back of her hand, "Your life is more important than anything else!"

"I know what I'm afraid of. Bai Xiaojiu hugged her shoulders, gave her strength, and made her completely relaxed, "Don't worry." It's okay. ”

"You. I've always been so big-hearted. Qiu Zhuping ran down by herself before, stood downstairs and felt that it was not good to leave her daughter, and was in a hurry, so she saw her come down, and then she felt that her heartbeat was not so fast.

Just about to continue to say a few words, so that Bai Xiaojiu could remember it for a long time, he suddenly slapped his head, "Your father!"

Bai Xiaojiu went from being stunned to feeling afraid of the earthquake, and now she has carefully experienced it, and she has long forgotten about everything else, and when she reminded her like this, she remembered that Qi Jingchen was still working in the company.

Qiu Zhuping and Bai Xiaojiu only remembered the person they cared about at this time, but Qiu Zhuping didn't take his mobile phone when he came down.

No matter how anxious he is, Bai Xiaojiu will definitely call his father first, and when he pressed the connect button, a mechanical female voice came from there, "The phone you dialed cannot be connected for the time being." ”

Bai Xiaojiu didn't give up and called twice, and after hearing the people standing next to him call their relatives one after another, he said, "The mobile phone can't get through, can yours get through?"

"I can't get through either, saying the number can't be reached!"

Bai Xiaojiu put down her mobile phone, looked at Qiu Zhuping, who was a little anxious, and shook her phone, "The phone can't be connected." ”

"How is it possible! Your father just rushed the phone bill, how could he not get through. If you call more, is the signal not good?" Qiu Zhuping heard that the phone couldn't get through, and her face changed.

"It has nothing to do with phone bills. I reckon the earthquake knocked the cell tower down. So there is no signal. Bai Xiaojiu saw that Qiu Zhuping was flustered again, and hurriedly calmed down.

"Is it really not an accident?" Qiu Zhuping just said this, his face changed, and he slapped himself in the mouth a few times, "No, no, your father will definitely not have an accident." ”

"Mom, listen, everyone else is saying that the phone can't get through. It's definitely a signal tower thing, don't worry. I'll call Qi Jingchen again to try, if it can't get through, it must be a signal. ”

Qiu Zhuping calmed down a little when she heard this, "Yes, yes, you call Xiaochen." Hurry up and hit. ”

Bai Xiaojiu looked at her worried look, gently stroked her back to show comfort, and then dialed Qi Jingchen's phone, and sure enough, it was still such a reminder, "It seems that it is a signal problem." ”

Qiu Zhuping breathed a sigh of relief, relieved herself, took a deep breath, and muttered softly, "I'll just say, your father will definitely not have an accident." He's on the construction site, it's open there, and nothing will happen. ”

"Yes, Dad is working on engineering, so there will definitely be no big problem. Bai Xiaojiu hurriedly followed her words and comforted, "Otherwise, let's go upstairs." Standing downstairs all the time?"

"No, no. There will be aftershocks in earthquakes. It's not safe to go up. Don't go up. Qiu Zhuping said and grabbed Bai Xiaojiu's wrist with her backhand, and shook her head again and again, "You can't go upstairs, be obedient." ”

Bai Xiaojiu knew that Qiu Zhuping had always been a housewife with a tough personality, but it was easy to panic when she encountered things, so she hurriedly reached out and wrapped her shoulders, "Okay, okay, then I won't go upstairs, let's go out for a walk?"

"Hurry up and find your sister. Go to your sister's house!" Qiu Zhuping remembered her baby daughter, and hurriedly let go of her hand and pulled Bai Xiaojiu to Bai Xiaoliu's community.

"My sister is at work right now. And did you bring the keys? There's no one in her house. ”

Qiu Zhuping reacted at this time, looked upstairs in embarrassment, and then looked at the direction of Bai Xiaoliu Community.

"I'll go up and get the keys, and you'll wait for me downstairs. Bai Xiaojiu knew that she was still afraid, and as soon as she let go of her hand and walked a few steps, she was dragged by Qiu Zhuping again.

Turning his head to her and smiling slightly, his tone soft, "It's okay, I'll go up and down quickly, and I'll go get a key." Soon. ”

Qiu Zhuping was still a little worried and refused to let go, and looked at her stubbornly.

Bai Xiaojiu patted her on the back of her hand, "It's okay, I'll run fast, take the key and come down." Where else are we going? There's a lot of commotion everywhere right now. ”

Qiu Zhuping knew that what she said made sense, sighed softly, and let go of her hand, "Then you go." ”

Bai Xiaojiu was very fast, fast up and down, quickly took the things down, and followed Qiu Zhuping to Bai Xiaoliu's house.

During this time, a family of three went to work and went to school, and there was no signal on the mobile phone, and they could not be contacted.

Qiu Zhuping entered the door and turned around in place before sitting on the sofa and muttering, "What should I do if I can't get in touch." Your sister is still on a business trip. I don't know where the earthquake was. This ......"

Halfway through the words, the aftershocks began again, and even on the first floor, there was a sense of shaking.

Qiu Zhuping instantly shut up, grabbed Bai Xiaojiu who was sitting beside her, and waited for the aftershocks to come over before shaking her hands, "What should your sister do?" ”

Bai Xiaojiu turned on the TV and found that the TV signal was still good, so he hurriedly found a news station to watch.

Basically every place is reporting on this disaster, Qiu Zhuping paid attention to watching TV, the whole person was much calmer, and with the news report, he was still muttering in a low voice: "It's okay, fortunately, your sister's business trip is safe, you shouldn't worry, um." Do not worry. ”

Bai Xiaojiu knew that she didn't have a bottom in her heart now, and she was the only one by her side, a little helpless, and sat down next to her, "Sister, it's definitely going to be fine." How long are we going to stay here? If Jingchen comes home, he doesn't know where his sister's house is. ”

"Then what should I do now? I can't contact Xiaochen, this kid. You're going to look for him at the company?"

Bai Xiaojiu also meant this, but she was afraid that Qiu Zhuping would worry, and she didn't worry about staying at home alone, so she shook her head, "Don't go first, let's wait for Dad to come home." ”

After the return of Bai Junguo, Qiu Zhuping has the backbone, and he will not be so afraid.

When Qiu Zhuping heard her words, she settled a lot in her heart, and quickly nodded, "Mmmm, don't go out." Insecurity. ”

Bai Xiaojiu is preparing to say a few more words of comfort, the news is saying that because of the chaos caused by the earthquake, the traffic is now chaotic, and the traffic police are currently channeling to reassure everyone.

As soon as he heard this, Bai Xiaojiu's heart was half cold, if there was a problem with the traffic, how could Qi Jingchen go home?

Thinking about how to find Qi Jingchen in a mess, and from time to time to say a few words to Qiu Zhuping to comfort her, the sound of the key turning sounded at Bai Xiaoliu's door.

Bai Xiaojiu ran to the door to see, Bai Junguo had a coat in his hand, pushed open the door, and when he saw her, he breathed a sigh of relief, "I guess you should be here, after the earthquake, the first floor is the safest." Your mother still has a little bit of common sense. ”

Before Bai Xiaojiu could answer, Qiu Zhuping almost rushed forward, "Are you okay?

"I had just gotten out of the car at the time of the earthquake and was on my way home. It was a bit chaotic, and I didn't go home until the earthquake was over. Realizing that there was no one at home, I wondered if you were in the old family. Are you all right?"

"It's okay, we're all right. It's fine if you're okay. The phone couldn't get through, and I was in a hurry. Let me tell you, the little Zhang downstairs is scared, and he has been crying there, and I am flustered when I cry. ”

As soon as Qiu Zhuping saw Bai Junguo appear, the whole person was much calmer, and he grabbed his arm and began to talk endlessly, just like the person who was sitting on the edge just now.

Bai Xiaojiu stayed up with them until the end of work, still worried about Qi Jingchen, and finally couldn't sit still.

"I'll go home. ”

"What are you doing when you go home? It's dangerous on the upper floors of our house! Stay on the first floor, and there are aftershocks. As soon as Qiu Zhuping heard that Bai Xiaojiu was going home, she hurriedly got up and grabbed her, didn't let her go, and turned back to Bai Junguo and said, "This kid doesn't know in his heart, so he has to go home to see if Xiaochen has come home." The car can't go, how can he go home?"

Bai Junguo was more calm, glanced at the time of the mobile phone, and pulled Qiu Zhuping's elbow, "Let the child go." The aftershocks are not strong, our house has a solid foundation, and it is fine. Let the child go back. ”

"Xiao Chen has never been here, and he doesn't know the place, you go back and wait. There is no cell phone signal at this time. It's hard to find people, so you can only wait. ”

"Well, I'll go back and have a look. Do you have anything else to bring?"

Qiu Zhuping has always listened to Bai Junguo's words, and when she encountered an earthquake, she relied on him even more, and when she heard him say this, she let go, "Then you go and bring my mobile phone, charging cable, wallet, and other things." ”

"Okay, shall I bring some food from home?" Bai Xiaojiu nodded simply and glanced at the time, afraid that Qi Jingchen had already arrived home and was in a hurry at this time.
