Chapter 12: My Mom Gave Money

Next.

The old people woke up early and went upstairs to prepare breakfast for their families.

When I walked to the elevator entrance, I found that the elevator button did not respond no matter how I pressed it, and the screen showing the floor was not lit.

They had to go back and say to the young people at home: "The elevator is out of power, has the community said when the call will come, can't it be kept coming?" ”

"Ah, no call yet?"

The young man took out his mobile phone and looked at it, but did not find the text message from the power company, "The electricity did not prompt the text message." ”

The others comforted: "Don't worry, it will come, it's not that there is a limited-time power outage, it may be our turn." ”

"We can't run out of electricity during the day, we still have to eat and take a shower."

"Call and complain about them."

The crowd was furious and ready to call the government to complain, and then exclaimed again.

"I don't believe it."

"I don't have a cell phone signal anymore."

"It's the garage signal, you guys go to the first floor and try it."

A few people took their mobile phones to the first floor, but there was still no signal, there was no network signal without electricity, and the phone could not be called.

"The power outage will be a network outage, what's the fuss, do you think the signal base station will have its own generator set? When electricity comes, the network will naturally recover. ”

The young man's disdainful words calmed the crowd a little.

The young couple felt that something was wrong, someone in the group had reminded them before, but now there is a complete power outage, and the government has not notified them.

And even if there is a power outage and the network is cut off, the mobile phone should not even be able to make calls, and it is not that there has been no power outage before, and the mobile phone can be called normally.

If the phone can't be called, it means that all nearby counties and cities have a power outage, which is not an ordinary signal.

The two of them whispered a little together, and returned upstairs to carry useful things, food, and mineral water to the car.

In the spacious basement, the residents of the community have basically come down.

The children didn't have to go to school, they gathered together to play happily, and the shrill shouts came from the quiet underground garage, and the irritability soared.

"It's okay to have a child's caretaker, it's noisy, this is a public area, can you have a tutor?"

"yes, I kept arguing last night, I didn't sleep in the middle of the night, and now I've been arguing since the morning, so there has to be a time to stop, right?"

Some sensible parents immediately stopped their children, and some only symbolically scolded them, and then looked like "I took care of it, but I can't take care of it".

The crowd didn't have to say anything, and a few grumpy young people walked directly to a few children and yelled at them, so frightened that the children were stunned and cried directly.

"If you quarrel again, while your parents are not paying attention, Lao Tzu will beat you to death."

As soon as the words came out, a group of bear children forcibly held back the cry on their lips, they just didn't clean up, bullying the soft and afraid of the hard.

At this time, the parents were not happy and hurried over to support their children, but a few young people were not afraid, and they were originally short-tempered, so they directly greeted them head-on.

The parents on the other side were scared, scolded and took their children back, and scolded them to get back their lost face.

As the outside temperature rises, so does the temperature in the basement.

Everyone was also hungry, and those on the lower floors went home to make food and take it down, and those on the higher floors could only wait for the electricity to come.

Until two or three o'clock in the afternoon, the power supply was still not restored.

Some people were so hungry that they had to climb up the stairs little by little, go home to eat something, and bring back some food.

Young people are okay, they have the habit of hoarding snacks, and they have something to eat at home, but other people who don't have the habit of hoarding snacks can't.

There are only some vegetables and fruits at home, or rice noodles, the fruits are fine, and the others have to be cooked first.

So, everyone could only endure the heat, cook in the kitchen, make several meals at a time, and then take them to the basement. Some people have set their sights on people in the community who still have electricity, and want to borrow a kitchen with them to cook some food.

Boom Boom.

"Is there anyone in the house?"

"Sister Jiang, I'm Aunt Chen Xiulan on the 18th floor, the community has a power outage, we want to borrow your kitchen to cook some food, we can pay the electricity bill."

……

Jiang Ran was training in the living room and ignored the knock on the door outside.

The aunt who spoke was called Chen Xiulan, who lived with her son and daughter-in-law, and there was a little bully at home, who kicked Jiang Ran in the elevator for no reason before.

As a result, people didn't say anything, so they didn't see it.

Jiang Ran was so angry that she couldn't do it, but she didn't dare to offend a young and middle-aged family, especially this family didn't seem to be easy to get along with.

In addition, Chen Xiulan is a sharp-toothed person, loves to take advantage of small advantages, and is unforgiving, when you say it well in front of you, you don't know how to arrange it behind your back.

Let a sleeping dog lie.

Jiang Ran endured it, and just avoided this family in the future.

And something similar, she experienced it in her previous life, human nature is greedy, and if you get a little, you will want more. Letting people in now is luring wolves into the house, and then they won't just borrow the kitchen.

After knocking for a while, I saw that the people in the house did not respond, and the people outside the door were unhappy.

"What's in it? Isn't it just a battery board, what's so proud? ”

"It's just that a woman who lives alone does things so desperately, I see who will help her if something happens in the future."

"When she begged us, let's go, let's go, it's really boring, how can there be such a selfish person."

The family left scoldingly, returned to the basement, and added oil and vinegar to belittle Jiang Ran, causing everyone to have a very bad impression of her.

The news spread quickly, and some people refused, and naturally some people agreed.

Those who received the news rushed up like sharks smelling blood, afraid that they would not take advantage of it.

Looking at the dirty kitchen, a group of bear children were still noisy in the living room, making a mess of the house, and the owner instantly blackened his face and told the bear children to be quiet.

"What are you doing so fiercely? It's not like my grandmother doesn't give money. ”

"That's it, my mom gave the money."

A group of bear children took it for granted, and they also ran to the kitchen to complain, and several adults hurriedly smiled and apologized to the owner.

"Big sister, I'm sorry, the child is so difficult to manage, don't worry about it, don't worry about it, don't worry about it, we will give money."

"You've also taken a child, and you know that it's not easy to bring a child, so it's troublesome."

The words are polite, but the words are all for the host to understand, but there is no intention to discipline the child.

The host was so angry that he expressed his dissatisfaction, and several women who borrowed the kitchen joined forces to oppress people, saying that they were stingy, selfish, and pretentious, and that the host's family had a heart attack.

The cowardly and patient let them finish cooking, and the bad tempered ones drove everyone out.

As a result, when I cleaned the kitchen, I found that my own rice, flour, grain and oil were much less, and I almost fainted.

Since then, the few families have been reluctant to lend their kitchens.

The crowd was very unhappy.

People who kindly borrow the kitchen not only do not have a good reputation, but they are more unhappy and have a worse reputation than those who don't borrow it.
