Chapter Fifty-Seven: Sending Charcoal in the Snow
In this way, we have been busy at home for more than a week, and we are in a hurry, for fear that there will be a real power and water outage.
By the end of November, we had already done enough preparations, so every day was not like the previous days, when we were busy hitting the back of the head.
That afternoon, as soon as our family woke up from a nap, someone knocked on the door, Jiang Zhi opened the door and saw that it was Xu Ran and his husband Wang Xiaopeng.
Wang Xiaopeng was still carrying a hemp bag on his shoulder, Jiang Zhi hurriedly let them into the house, Wang Xiaopeng put down the sack on his shoulder and went downstairs again, saying that there were still some things in the car, Jiang Zhi went down with him and moved back two bags of rice and one bag of white noodles.
Xu Ran pulled me and said, "My dad got a gossip yesterday that the snow will continue to fall this winter, and it will be bigger, and the highway and airport may still not be available, so the existing materials in our D city will definitely not be enough for everyone to survive this winter." I can't figure out that this winter is worse than last winter.
So we found an acquaintance this morning and finally got some food and vegetables, so I sent some to you by the way, and I also looked at you, I don't know if the road will not be passable after the heavy snowfall in the future, but it is okay, if it is not passable, even if there is food, it will not be able to be delivered at that time. Alas, this breaks the weather. I'll send some to Han Han and Weiwei later, and then I'll see them.
You should also make some preparations at home, go to the supermarket and buy more food to save up. ”
I was very moved when I saw the grain, cabbage and potatoes that Ran Ran sent to my family. If you have a friend like this, what more could I ask for?
I also told Ran Ran about some of our family's preparations, and asked her to talk to Han Han and Weiwei as well, hoping to help them.
Wang Xiaopeng heard that we had frozen a lot of ice cubes, and felt that it was not necessary, so he said: "Why do you have to go so far to store water, there is snow outside, if you use water, you can go outside and dig some snow and come back." ”
After Ran Ran heard this, he pouted him directly, "Let's just say that you are uneducated, you still think that it is ancient times, you can make tea with snow water, now the atmosphere is so polluted, and the next rain is acid rain, you can guarantee that there is no virus in these snow, there is no virus, the dust floating in the air is willing to have it, that child can't have diarrhea after drinking." ”
I also said next to me: "If you really can't help it, you can drink it, but if you can, we still have to prepare some, after all, there are still weak elderly people and children at home." ”
Wang Xiaopeng hurriedly nodded violently, afraid that Ran Ran would be mad again.
Ran Ran saw that the side dishes in our house were very novel, and I thought it was another child who had never farmed.
I took a lot of air-dried sausages from the kitchen rope and packed them in three large plastic bags. And he brought out three pork, three whole sheep, and three pieces of beef from the veranda (which was actually the ring), and gave them a portion for each of them. I have fresh meat in my ring, so it doesn't hurt to take it out at all.
Ran Ran was amazed to see me move so many things out of the veranda. Ask me, "How many things do you have?" ”
I modestly said, "Not much, it's enough to support a few of you." ”
Ran Ran jokingly said, "If we can't eat after a while, I'll come to your house to ask for food." ”
I said, "Welcome, I'm sure you'll be able to raise you all to be slaughtered in vain." ”
When Wang Xiaopeng and Jiang Zhi were transporting things to the car, I pulled Ran Ran into my room, gave Ran Ran 8 small bottles, and said, "The three of you have exactly one bottle for each of the eight people, don't ask anything, if you believe me, you will drink it when you go home." ”
Ran Ran pouted and asked me, "Can you tell me what it is?" ”
I said coolly, "Get fit." ”
But then he added, "If your husband drinks it, it is estimated that it can also be aphrodisiac." ”
Ran Ran flew up and kicked at me.
When Ran Ran was about to leave, I solemnly said once again that these bottles of water must be drunk. In the future, if you really lack food and clothing, you must come to me.
Ran Ran waved at me and drove away.
Jiang Zhi put his arm around my shoulders behind and asked me, "Did you give her all those bottles of potion?" ”
"Hmm." We dissolved the stream water in the medicinal space of a pill that washed the muscles and cut the marrow, and put it in a small bottle, which was given to a few of my girlfriends, and I hope they can also survive the last days safely.
"Don't think about it anymore, they'll take care of themselves." Jiang Zhi could see that after Xu Ran left, my mood was a little low. In fact, Jiang Zhi also approves of my girlfriends.
"I know I can't help everyone I know, and I'm now reassured that my eldest and second sisters won't have a bad time with their storage rings. But Ranran's future is unknown. Weiwei is still divorced now, and she still has children with her, and in this kind of apocalypse, I am really worried. ”
"You have to know that you have done a lot for them, at least if they drink the potion in the bottle, their bodies will become very healthy and strong, and they will not get sick in this kind of weather, and in the future, everyone will really not be able to eat, we can also learn from the * Liang in the novel, often go to see your little sisters, and send them some food."
"Well, I've done what I can do at this stage, let's just see them more and help them more in the future." My emotions come and go as fast as I go. Jiang Zhi said a few words, and I myself returned to normal.
We didn't dwell on this topic for too long, because we still had a lot to do.
After a few more days, we felt as if things had changed.
First of all, every time it snows, our community will organize some young adults to go out to clear the snow, but in the past few days, when it snows, the neighborhood committee has come to call people, and few people have gone.
Jiang Zhi came back to tell me that it was because everyone was going to the supermarket to buy food now. Due to the continuous heavy snowfall these days, the highway and the airport have been suspended, so the goods in the supermarket are out of stock, and there is a phenomenon of running out of stock.
A while ago, there were goods sold in supermarkets because the supermarkets had inventory, but with the fact that they were only in and out, the inventory became less and less, and some goods were out of stock.
In fact, there have been a few heavy snowfalls in D City so far, and the people of D City are not panicking about these heavy snowfalls. Because the people of D City think that their hometown has been affected by the disaster, the country must not ignore it, and will definitely try their best to send materials to alleviate the pressure of the shortage of materials in D City, but the people of D City learned from the TV news that not only our city has a snow disaster, but almost the whole country in our country has been affected to varying degrees. We're not the worst here, so don't count on the country's rescue.
Now that people see that the supermarkets are out of stock, they begin to panic, and there is a rush to buy in the supermarket.
Secondly, many of the elderly in our family area have been admitted to the hospital these days, all of them have minor illnesses with colds and fevers, but the day before yesterday, I heard that two of them passed away.
We were all surprised, it shouldn't be, it's just a cold and fever.
Later, I heard that it was because there were too many patients in the hospital recently, all of them were cold and fever because of the cold weather, and the medicines in the hospital ran out after a few days of use.
When the patient arrived at the hospital, the hospital could only use physical methods to cool the patient, and some people survived, while others burned into pneumonia and finally died.
So now everyone is in danger, if there is no need, they don't leave the house, they are afraid of frostbite, and you must know that when there is no medicine, a small cold will kill people.
After that, when the neighborhood committee asked someone to clear the snow, I didn't let Jiang Zhi go, everyone didn't go, and it would be high-profile for us to go again.
