In her past life, Xia Shige was the real heiress who had been taken back by the wealthy Lu family. During the apocalypse, she worked hard and earnestly to take care of the entire family.

The panic caused by limited water supply is greater than that caused by limited power supply, after all, water is the source of life. The high temperature in the sky has not subsided recently, and many people have vaguely sensed that something is wrong.
"Not only were some people hoarding water, some were also hoarding rice and noodles. They bought so much that the two children from the Lin family helped carry the things to the elevator. The two children were so hot and tired that they almost had heatstroke," Sun Yuegui added.
The older generation had experienced famine and were really scared of being hungry. They keenly sensed that something was wrong and began to stockpile food.
Xia Huiyin had never seen such a spectacular rush to buy things, as if these things were free. More than half of the inventory in Jingjing Supermarket was emptied today.
Xia Huiyin and the three members of the Lin family were busy replenishing the shelves and placing orders with suppliers for replenishment, and they were busy until late in the evening.
Xia Huiyin took the plastic bag she had brought home, which contained a golden pineapple. She said to Xia Shige:
"It was given to me by Huanhuan from Building 6. Her husband came back today and they have completed the renovation of their residential building in the city. He knew that Shige sent Huanhuan and Dabao to the hospital and wanted to thank us. This pineapple was issued by his unit and he insisted that I accept it. I couldn't refuse, so I took it back."
It seemed that the house that was damaged by the tornado had been repaired, and Xia Shige breathed a sigh of relief.
"Oh, these fruits are so expensive now. I watched the video and saw that they cost several yuan for an apple." Grandma said in surprise: "The fruit trees in our yard are about to bear fruit. There will be no shortage of fruits by then. It's just a piece of cake. I shouldn't accept such an expensive gift."
"In difficult times, it is important to reciprocate. We can only feel at ease if we accept them," said Grandma Liu.
"Grandma Liu is right, grandma, we will feel at ease only if we take them in." Xia Shige also advised.
After hearing this, grandma nodded and said nothing more.
The family enjoyed a sumptuous dinner together.

Han family.
"I told you not to turn on the air conditioner casually. This month's electricity bill is more than 9,000 yuan. How can we afford it if we continue like this!" When Han's mother saw Bai Qianqian turned on the air conditioner again, she unhappily snatched the air conditioner remote control and turned it off.
Han Yu'an's leg injury finally recovered these days and he was preparing to go to work, but he didn't expect that the company had laid off employees.
During this period, many companies declared bankruptcy, and many companies began to lay off employees in order to survive.
Han Yu'an had been resting for more than a month due to a leg injury. At a time when competition was so fierce, it was only natural that he was included in the layoff list.
The purchase of a school district house had emptied the Han family's savings, and now the Han family relies entirely on Han's mother's pension to make ends meet.
Now everything is going up in price, water bills are going up, electricity bills are going up, even mineral water prices are going up a lot.
Seeing Bai Qianqian turning on the air conditioner again at this time, Han's mother was really angry!
Bai Qianqian was scolded by Han's mother and she couldn't bear to feel wronged. The residential area of Bai's house has been renovated, and Bai's mother doesn't want to continue living in Han's house. After all, Bai Qianqian still has to live with Han Yu'an in the future, and she doesn't want to really break up with Han's mother.
Originally, Bai's mother planned to take Bai Qianqian back home, but Bai Qianqian felt that going home would only increase the financial pressure on her mother, so she stayed in the Han family.
She is pregnant with Han Yu'an's child, and the Han family should take care of her life.
But ever since the departure of Bai's grandmother, Han's mother has started to make things difficult for Bai Qianqian. Han Yu'an is immersed in the anxiety of his career all day long and doesn't have much energy to care about the conflict between the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law.
Bai Qianqian really can't stand this kind of life!
