Chapter 18: Gossip

Especially time.

What day is it? What day of the week? What's the time now?

There are very few people on this street who can answer this question accurately, because none of the families have a mechanical watch in their hands, and almost all of them have scrapped their mobile phones, alarm clocks, and watches.

Everyone lived a life without time, sleeping when they were sleepy, waking up when they woke up, no sun, only heavy rain, noon? At night? What's the difference? It's all the same gloomy anyway.

The second is the aspect of physical hygiene.

It is troublesome for women to wash their hair because they have to save gas and hot water. Liang Wenjing is considering whether to cut off her long flowing beautiful hair and become a capable woman.

It is also very troublesome for women to change their underwear, it is said that they change it every day, but now the weather is humid, the clothes are not dry after the water, and by the third day, they stink directly, there is mold on them, and they can't wear them, and if they are infected with serious gynecological diseases, it is even more troublesome.

"Isn't it possible to use pads?" The ignorant Liang Shuyu once asked.

"That's uncomfortable." That's what Liang Wenjing said.

"Why?" The ignorant Liang Shuyu asked curiously.

Then he was glared at.

"Okay." Liang Shuyu smacked his lips, and he asked questions that shouldn't be asked.

Also, girls have to wash their butts every day. Liang Shuyu didn't deliberately pay attention to this, he just knew that Liang Wenjing would boil two pots of hot water every day, and the rest of the candles would be used to make tea.

There is another thing I heard from a neighbor, saying that there is a child who lives below who has a cold + diarrhea, went to buy medicine, it doesn't work, can't find a doctor, and sent to the hospital, but there are too many dead people in the hospital and no one cares about them, and the child is going to die.

It's really not clear, anyway, the people who heard the news said that there were corpses thrown everywhere in the hospital, and it was crowded with people, which was extremely terrifying.

There should be an exaggeration, but the news that there are many dead people in the hospital is probably not fabricated.

Another particularly embarrassing thing is that the toilet won't flush.

At the beginning, this incident was not discovered by Liang Shuyu's family, but by Luo Wei's family, who lived a little below. They lived on the first floor, and it is said that in the middle of the night, they suddenly felt very smelly, and woke up to find squatting on the toilet spraying.

Real squirt,.

I heard that it was because of the power outage + flood caused by what pump failure, in short, the sewage system also needs electricity, this electricity is used for drainage, the power outage has been nearly half a month, and the sewage system is officially GG.

Liang Shuyu and the others can only solve physiological problems in the wild.

So from then on, Liang Shuyu had one more task every morning: pouring the night pot.

The village chief said that Lovwei was retribution, who told him to take his fish to eat.

The village chief's house is next door to Liang Shuyu, a small two-story bungalow, with a pond and a solar water heater. Of course, although the water heater is solar, it also has to rely on electricity to generate work, not to mention that there is no sun now, even if there is, it will not work.

The village chief is a lonely old man with a dead wife, and there is a son named Zhang Run, who is a bachelor who can't find a wife.

Basically, every morning, these people would go to Wei Fatzi's house to gather for a while, and everyone exchanged useless information, basically from hearsay from other neighbors, and Liang Shuyu had never mixed with them.

But even so, the neighbors who used to seem familiar with each other have now become truly acquainted.

Even if Liang Shuyu didn't participate, he heard from Wei Youqi that the village chief's wife was either dead, but ran away with someone. Zhang Run also had a girlfriend before, but he also ran away with someone. The two fathers and sons had green on their heads, and they lived the life of bachelors together.

Opposite Yue Shifeng's house, his wife seems to have run away with someone. He was disheartened and accompanied his daughter here to go to college, his daughter Liang Shuyu has seen it twice, and it is also very beautiful, but it is not easy to contact, and it is a little indifferent.

And Grandma, an old woman who lives alone.

It is said that the children are all abroad, and there is a mixed-race grandson, but he is rich. It's just that she's an old woman here.

And then there is the Luo Wei family, the wife fortunately didn't run away with anyone, and died of dystocia. Luo Wei is a very famous person in the neighborhood, because he has never found a second marriage, and he is dedicated. The son's name is Luo Junxuan, and he had a good relationship with Liang Shuyu when he was a child, but later faded.

There is also the old Chen family on the second floor.

Lao Chen, nicknamed Lame Chen, used to work in a factory with Wei Fatzi. This is the first time Liang Shuyu knows, because he has the impression that Wei Fatzi and Lao Chen don't interact often.

Lao Chen's leg was broken in an accident while driving a truck, and Lao Chen's reputation is very bad, domestic violence, beating his wife, beating his daughter, gambling, and drinking. Legend has it that Liang Ying would not have planned to rent to him if it weren't for the bad habits he contracted after his mental collapse after a car accident, and if it weren't for the fact that he paid the rent on time every time.

Another point, Liang Ying said that the old Chen people in the past were very good and helped her a lot.

Liang Shuyu also has some impressions, in his memory, the young old Chen looks very elegant, and Chen Baoyi looks like him. Unfortunately, things are impermanent.

Once people are idle, they can't do without gossip.

At first, Liang Shuyu also refused, but then it gradually became fragrant. It's also fun to listen to other people's gossip on boring days.

Of course, when the neighbors get acquainted with each other, trouble begins.

There are two sets of 7-story commercial houses at the mouth of the alley, and almost all the beauties who work in the nearby KTV hotels live there. Although these people are quite rich, they don't seem to have any sense of crisis, and they often go to Wei Fatzi's house to buy things.

Wei Fatzi's family did not have much instant noodles in stock, plus they hid some by themselves, and the outside ones were sold out quickly.

These beauties don't want to go out in the rain, so they give money to ask Wei Fatzi to buy it on their behalf.

Who is Wei Fatzi? He is a person who has been talking about "taking a step back and opening the sky, and further empty", don't look at others are very enthusiastic and optimistic, but he is also a very open-minded person.

You won't brave the wind and rain to run errands for people because of such a small amount of money, saving people is one thing, making money is another.

He refused without even thinking about it.

The beauties are a little unhappy, naturally, there are men who are willing to pay for it. For example, Lao Liu, who lives below, is short of cash at home, not to mention being able to smile at a beautiful woman and help run errands.

But Lao Liu's wife was not happy, and the beauty came over again that day and was beaten by Lao Liu's wife, who was squatting.

Why did you beat her...... I don't know.

The contradiction does not stop there.

The water bucket in Liang Shuyu's house was shared by the three families many years ago, and the water was often cut off at that time.

Later, after the water stopped, Liang Ying did not use it with them, and the bucket was only used for storing water at ordinary times, and occasionally they had no water when the typhoon stopped working, so they put it on them.

The water has been stopped for more than ten days, and the old Chen family has run out of clean water, so they want Liang Ying to open the water bucket, and they want to take a bath.

Liang Shuyu didn't get angry when he heard it, they were reluctant to boil water to take a bath in their own house, and washed the old Chen family on the second floor? ! It rained for half a month in a row, did they think it was ordinary rain, ordinary wind?

Liang Shuyu didn't even bother to tell them if he refused, so he ignored it directly.

So Liang Shuyu began to worry about another problem.

Lao Chen's family has almost no food in stock, and they have bought it at Wei Fatzi's house for eating and drinking these days, although Liang Shuyu has advised Aunt Xiuping and Wei Fatzi not to sell it again countless times, and the two of them have not listened.

People will have less and less cash in their hands, and if this continues, it will be consumed until people run out of cash.

What will happen to this city with no money, no food, heavy rain, paralyzed traffic, insufficient police?
