Chapter 58: The Earthquake

Time flies, and in the blink of an eye, it is November 23rd.

On this day, Liang Xuetao took Liang Wen and Liang Dou home in the afternoon, and then called Liang Juan and asked her to go home early tomorrow morning.

If nothing else, November 24 will be the day when natural disasters break out in many places in China and even around the world.

Tomorrow at about 1 p.m., 700 kilometers away from Datian Village, K City will face a major earthquake of magnitude 8 or higher, and Liang Juan's internship unit, the Sixth People's Hospital, is located in J City, which is closer to K City, and it will definitely be affected.

Liang Xuetao has always acted cautiously, although Liang Juan was safe and sound in this earthquake in his previous life, but in order to prevent accidents, he felt that it was safer to call her home.

After dinner, he carefully counted the materials in his home and space.

Potatoes, cabbage, turnips, and all kinds of dried vegetables, garlic, peppers, and so on are neatly stacked, taking up most of the cellar.

Most of the basements connected to the cellar are stored some daily necessities, all kinds of clothes, cold protection and lighting utensils, etc.

As for some dangerous and fresh-looking items, they are placed in the Moyun Space.

In addition to kerosene, the largest area in the space is rice noodles and meat.

100 kilograms of flour 200 bags, 2000 kilograms of rice, millet, glutinous rice, a number of black rice, pork, beef and mutton and all kinds of fresh seafood......

He did a rough calculation, and the food was probably enough for their family to chew for ten years.

At night, Liang Xuetao counted the supplies and went back to his room to sleep.

Speaking of which, his psychological quality is indeed much stronger than that of ordinary people, and he will probably be nervous and difficult to sleep this night after changing others, but he falls asleep upside down and dreams until dawn.

Get up early in the morning, go up the mountain with Wei Hongyu to practice as usual, and then feed the donkeys and cows, what should I do.

Soon after Liang Juan came back, Liang Xuetao and Wei Hongyu were also busy.

A few days ago, Liang Xuetao had already greeted his mother and Liang Xuebing, and today he was going to have a family dinner, and he invited everyone to eat barbecue.

Liang Xuejun also took a half-day off because of this, and several people came to the backyard of Liang Xuetao's house early, set up a barbecue stove, and put up tables, chairs, boards, knife holders and other things.

The pork, beef and mutton have been marinated the night before, and at this time they are taken out and cut into small pieces, and then skewered with iron skewers before they can be roasted in the oven.

Liang Xuejun and Yu Xiaofen were busy cutting meat and skewering meat.

Wei Hongyu prepares vegetarian dishes in the front yard, cowpeas, potato chips, cauliflower, and mushrooms...... There's a lot of it.

Liang Xuetao couldn't intervene in these housework, so he simply led a few children to start practicing firmware.

He demonstrated it first, and then urged Liang Juan to practice a few times, and for a while there was a lot of mourning in the backyard.

At around 12:30 p.m., the first wave of barbecue was baked.

Wei Hongyu and Yu Xiaofen took the plate and put it on the table, and set aside some for Mrs. Liang, and then shouted and let the children eat first.

Liang Juan is the eldest in the family, and commanded Liang Dong and Liang Mei to open a few bottles of fruit beer, and the friends raised their glasses and touched them decently, causing Wei Hongyu on the side to laugh.

After being busy for a while, Liang Xuejun and the others grilled a lot of meat and vegetarian dishes, and when they saw that it was almost over, they got up and went to another table.

The three brothers drank wine and ate meat, while the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law whispered on the side, scooping up an iron skewer from time to time and eating two bites, and the atmosphere between the banquets was indescribably harmonious and happy.

Mrs. Liang was old, and she couldn't eat much because of the big oil and water, so she gave up after tasting a few pieces of meat and some vegetarian dishes, leaning on the recliner and squinting in the sun.

After a while, she fell asleep, and she was about to get up and go home for a nap, when she suddenly felt a slight shake under her, and before she could ask what was going on, the chaise longue began to shake rapidly again.

At the same time, the glasses, dishes and other utensils on the table also shook sharply, and a few even fell to the ground, making a "clang" sound.

"What's wrong?"

"What the hell is going on?"

"Is this an earthquake?"

Everyone hugged and asked, and the scene was noisy.

"Mom!" He Wei suddenly howled, and hurriedly picked up Liang Dong and was about to run out, but was grabbed by Liang Xuejun, who was quick-eyed: "What are you doing, where are you going?" ”

He Wei pouted, and muttered, "I ......."

Mrs. Liang walked over, glanced at her, and shouted in a low voice: "What are you running around, stay here for me, what is it like to make a fuss!" ”

"yes, it's very empty, and there are no buildings around, so it's safe." Yu Xiaofen said a word, and brought a small bench over: "You can sit in peace, I don't think it's a big deal." ”

He Wei hugged Liang Dong, sat down tremblingly, and suddenly remembered something after a while, and hurriedly took out the phone from his pocket, intending to contact his parents.

I dialed it a few times, but it was a busy sound of "doodoo", and there was no signal at all, and then I looked up at everyone, most of them were also holding the phone, trying to contact relatives and friends.

After a while, the ground shook again, this time for a short time, about ten seconds, and the tremor was much smaller than the last time, apparently an aftershock.

Wei Hongyu sat on the ground next to Liang Juan, holding Liang Wen and Liang Dou in her arms, and the panic in her heart was like a stormy wave, far more than others.

Sure enough, the words of the cultivators came true, and according to them, this earthquake was just the beginning, and there would be even greater disasters in the future......

Thinking of this, she subconsciously shouted: "Liang Xuetao!" ”

"Huh." Liang Xuetao responded, turned his head and saw that her face was pale and panicked, so he hurriedly stepped forward and touched her cheek, and said softly: "Don't be afraid, with me, don't be afraid!" ”

Everyone looked at this scene, all of them were related, and their faces were a little ugly.

To be honest, the earthquake in Datian Village was not strong this time, but since Mrs. Liang, none of the more than a dozen people in the Liang family have experienced this kind of scene, coupled with He Wei's panicked appearance at the beginning, it has more or less caused some psychological shadows to everyone.

Fortunately, Liang Xuetao persuaded a few words from time to time, and after some enlightenment, everyone gradually calmed down.

After another hour, Liang Xuetao and others estimated that the situation was temporarily safe, and Liang Xuebing and Liang Xuejun were in a hurry to go home, and each led his wife and children to leave in a hurry.

Mrs. Liang also wanted to go home to see, but Liang Xuetao hurriedly stopped her: "Mom, you can live here, and it will save me from worrying." ”

"No, I'm not seventy or eighty years old and can't walk, if I really have something, don't I still have two legs." As soon as the old lady shook her hand, she raised her leg and was about to go out.

Seeing this, Wei Hongyu also stepped forward to persuade her, but unfortunately Mrs. Liang's temper was really stubborn, and she didn't listen to persuasion at all, so Liang Xuetao had no choice but to send her home.

Wei Hongyu sat in the front yard with her three children, afraid of aftershocks, so she didn't dare to run out.

After a while, Liu Wenlan came panting.

Her husband and two sons were in J City, and they couldn't contact anyone for a while, and they didn't know what the situation was, so they made her anxious like ants on a hot pot, and she couldn't help crying.

When Wei Hongyu saw it, she was a little reluctant in her heart.

At this time, Liang Xuetao came back.

Wei Hongyu hurriedly told Liu Wenlan about the situation, and then asked him again: "Why don't you send Sister Wenlan to the city to have a look?" ”

Liang Xuetao didn't want to help with this in his heart, there was still a mess of things waiting for him to deal with at home, and he didn't have the leisure to do this job Lei Feng.

However, in the face of the pleading look on her daughter-in-law's face, she said a lot of good words and soft words, and she couldn't bear to refuse her for a while, hesitated, and finally decided to run, and Liu Wenlan was so happy that she pinched his arm and didn't let go, and thanked her repeatedly.

Before going out, Liang Juan sneaked over: "Dad, I want to go too." ”

Liang Xuetao turned his head to look at her: "What are you going to do?" ”

"I want to go see what's going on at the hospital."

"Don't make trouble for me, the disaster situation in J City may be worse than ours, I have to be busy taking care of you when you go, no!"

Liang Juan begged for a while, and seeing that Liang Xuetao resolutely disagreed, she couldn't help but get angry, and snorted coldly: "What's the big deal, if you don't take me, I can go myself." ”

Liang Xuetao raised his eyebrows: "If you don't understand, tell me what you want to do, how can I take you." ”

Liang Juan saw that she really couldn't hide it, and said hesitantly: "I want to go...... Look at a friend. ”

"Boyfriend?" Liang Xuetao saw that she was silent, and nodded clearly: "It's okay to take you there, but the words are in the head first, and all actions must be under my command." ”

"Great!" Liang Juan suddenly smiled and responded busily.
