88 Door-to-door proposal
A stormy night is slowly passing. At four o'clock in the morning, the rain turned to moderate rain. Du Yunfei and Su He put on their raincoats again, left the greenhouse, and walked towards the villa on foot.
By the time we got back to the villa, everyone else had already fallen asleep. The glowing mushrooms in the living room were moved to the antechamber, apparently to leave a light for them.
Du Yunfei went upstairs to get a change of clothes, Su He boiled water in the kitchen, and the two of them went into the bathroom together. The hot water dispelled the chill, and Du Yunfei also cleaned up Su He, directing the tomato juice and the □□ mixed in it.
Because they had been upside down in the greenhouse several times before, the two of them were also tired at this moment, and they didn't do anything superfluous, so they went back to the room and hugged each other after cleaning up.
I slept until about eight o'clock in the morning, and the light finally brightened. The wind and rain stopped, and the chirping of birds came from the window.
After washing, everyone in the villa came to the restaurant one after another, eating the breakfast prepared by Duan Whale and Lin Youqing, and chatting about the storm last night.
The radio broadcast said that last night's typhoon did not hit Z head-on. The fortified villas did not leak rain or enter the water. Du Yunfei and Su He, who went out to rescue the emergency, became the focus of everyone's attention. Of course, the details that happened in the greenhouse are not easy to disclose, so Du Yunfei briefly described how to strengthen Tianmu Ironwood and the discovery of the landslide.
Anyway, the wind and rain outside stopped, and they simply sent two drones to the air to look down on the situation on the entire Foguang Island.
The situation was much better than they expected – there was little major damage to the campus, no water at the construction site and no houses blown down by the storm. The artificial lake has risen a lot, and part of the road on the ring road has been submerged under water, except for the scattered tree lodging, the most serious thing should be the partial collapse on the east side of Xiaoshan last night.
After checking the situation in various places, everyone began to work on the aftermath. Remove the dirt that covers the road, cut down trees, and reset the hybrid power plant...... After four or five busy days, when the water of the artificial lake was clear again, life was back on track.
Considering that this will certainly not be the only typhoon this year, the wind protection work in the park, as well as the repair and maintenance of outdoor equipment, must continue. Everyone listed a bunch of components and materials, and decided to hurry up and go to the city to find a treasure for shellfish.
In order to reduce the difficulty of scanning goods as much as possible, Lin Youqing "tailor-made" two huge metal cages for the drone, which can be easily hung on the hook on the belly of the fuselage, and can be quickly discarded in case of emergency. This time, both drones were sent out, and they were controlled by Duan Whale and Haichen respectively.
In the aftermath of the typhoon, the city of Z looked like a mess – heavy rain washed away mud, dirt and garbage left behind from earlier drifted everywhere. To make matters worse, the massive amount of rain that overflowed the streets also contributed to the spread of corpse fluid.
Binhai New Area, which looked clean and tidy when it was last swept, has now undergone earth-shaking changes. All kinds of mutated and unmutated plants are growing wildly, and large vines and mosses are beginning to appear on many buildings.
It is no exaggeration to say that the whole city is being devoured by plants little by little.
"These plants grow on the walls, and over time, the walls will be eroded and weathered, right?" Lu Rulan looked at the scene in the monitor worriedly, "The whole city will be destroyed." ”
Knowing that this is probably a matter of time, everyone is in a solemn mood. The two drones slowly flew through the downtown area of Z City according to the planned route, and once again saw the high-end shopping mall where they had swept the goods that day.
"Is this really the case?"
The square in the center of the city has now been transformed into a green jungle. Roads and buildings, all shrouded in lush green. When you zoom in, you can see tall and low trees and shrubs, as well as thick vines and colorful flowers and plants - if you look at it again, it is a wonderful sight that will truly amaze people.
Lin Youqing enlarged the image according to the coordinates recorded last time, and they soon saw the cypress tree in the center of the square again. It looked slightly larger than before, and it was still surrounded by countless zombies, but both the Dian Bai body and those zombies were hidden in the lush green leaves, and it was difficult to see clearly.
"It looks like it will be more difficult to sweep goods in the future."
With Haichen's exclamation, the high-end shopping mall they were familiar with appeared in the drone's picture - the original angular white façade has completely disappeared, and even the glass ceiling with a large hole has been covered by intertwined vines.
Knowing that this was the place to go, the drone continued to fly forward, and finally found a hardware store with a car smashed into the façade in a hardware appliance market, and found several suitable materials and tools.
It's not a bumper harvest, but it's good that he didn't return empty-handed, and it's barely a little comforting.
The loading load showed that it was close to the upper limit, and the two drones set off for home. On the way back, I found more than a flock of sheep grazing leisurely.
"I think I escaped from a farm near the suburbs." "In a few years, the city will become like a jungle, and more animals will migrate from the mountains to the city. This will be their world then. ”
The gradual fall of cities is sad, but it's not surprising. Even if a □□ falls on land, the days on Foguang Island have to go on.
Seven days after the typhoon left, the humid and muggy summer returned. Days of high temperatures evaporated excess moisture from the ground, and overnight, the air was filled with the clamor of cicadas.
The small electric fan, which was disliked a few months ago, is now a hot item. Lu Rulan also invented a simple cooling method of adding a fan and a basin of ice cubes. Screens and mosquito nets remodeled from the safety nets of the construction site are hung on the windows and beds. Even the long-haired cat was cut off by Lin Youqing and Duan Xingze.
Of course, summer is not all about flying mosquitoes and hot and humid heat; There are also colorful flowers and so many fruits that it is a headache.
The dirt that had slipped down the hillside a few days ago was so sticky that Haichen took it to do some experiments. As a result, a few crooked pieces of pottery were actually burned.
He took it to Lu Rulan to admire, Xiao Lan looked at it for a few minutes, and suddenly sighed, saying that our hands-on ability is not as good as that of the Hemudu people seven thousand years ago.
In any case, since it is a thing, it has the value of its existence. The ugly pottery had been squatting in the corner of the living room for a few days, and suddenly it was placed in the center of the dining table - of course, it was not it that really took the lead, but the flowers that housed it.
Delicately scented jasmine, small but delicate wheat straw chrysanthemum, gorgeous lily and curly lily...... Lots of flowers, plucked from secluded corners of the island, are clustered in clay pots, like a ray of midsummer sunshine into the villa.
Speaking of plants, there will be no one in the villa who knows more than Su He, but not all of these flowers are picked by Su He.
In the past few days, due to the continuous ripening of various vegetables and fruits in the botanical garden, everyone, including Duan Xingze, has been mobilized to step up the harvest. At first, it was Lu Rulan who made a start, and slowly everyone began to pick a handful of flowers and bring them back to the villa after work.
Time continues to move forward in an idyllic life.
July was followed by August, and the grapes on the shelves in front of the door were ripe, and clusters of huge purple-red fruits hung heavily. Duan led his son to pick them, some of them were refrigerated, others were washed and mashed to make wine.
At the same time, the fruits of the two female coconut trees in the greenhouse are ripening one after another. Although Su He packed the ticket and said that he could climb up, Du Yunfei refused to let him take this risk, and suddenly the two of them pulled up a big net under the tree, patiently waiting for the ripe coconuts to fall one by one.
The ripe coconut is opened, and after the coconut water is removed, the coconut meat is also separated and extracted into three parts: desiccated coconut, coconut milk and coconut oil.
Lu Rulan temporarily took over the management of the vegetable greenhouse from her cousin. Eggplant, loofah, lettuce, stubble to the villa, busy and happy.
It stands to reason that Haichen, a heel, should stick to Xiaolan's side all the time. Today, however, for the first time, he is nowhere to be seen.
He stayed in the villa and whispered to Lin Youqing.
"Brother Youqing, do we have the conditions to make a cake here? The kind to eat on your birthday."
Lin Youqing nodded: "Cake? Although there is no dairy product, you can use duck egg whites instead of cream...... Who's having a birthday? ”
"Little Blue's. The day after tomorrow is his birthday, and I want to surprise him...... Well, I hope to go one step further with him. Ahem, you get the idea. ”
"Are you going to celebrate alone, or with everyone?"
"I want to take Xiaolan to the sea, so I won't work everyone. But Brother Xiaolan is still going to say hello first......"
Lin Youqing had a "I understand" expression on his face: "You are very thoughtful. ”
Just do it. In the evening of that day, taking advantage of Lu Rulan's bathing time, Haichen took the initiative to find Su He with a bag of sea urchins and oysters that he had fished by himself. I briefly told the story of my birthday again.
Of course, gift-giving and discussing matters are not the point, the point is the first serious conversation between two people.
"Brother, I know that you are very precious Xiaolan, and I hope he can be happy for the rest of his life. Although I may not be the same as your ideal candidate, trust me, I can do more for Xiaolan than you think. ”
Su He was blowing the cold wind and eating the freshly made mango candy in his mouth. Du Yunfei, who had colluded with Haichen, was massaging his shoulders, and when he was in a good mood, he didn't bother with Haichen.
"Then I call you brother-in-law, do you dare to promise me?"
"For Xiaolan's sake, I'll promise anything."
Haichen nodded, deserving no pressure. 166 Reading Network
