Chapter 235 The Midnight Sun is Over

That day, Yang Qing and Leng Yi were returning home from get off work. As they reached the corridor, they saw the dilapidated pickup truck.

The two exchanged glances. Was it Lin Feng who arrived? They had assumed he would stay at the official base.

When the two entered the house, Lin Feng was sitting in the living room. Seeing them, he quickly stood up and said, "Brother Yi, sister-in-law!"

"You're here?" Leng Yi nodded.

"Yes, Brother Yi! I have worked for a full month and just received my salary, including Li Liang's salary for ten days. I still want to be with you guys, so I quit my job." Lin Feng said.

Leng Yi nodded and said, "I'll have the leaders here assign you some work tomorrow. It shouldn't be difficult to assign you a job since you have previous work experience."

"Thank you, Brother Yi!" Lin Feng said quickly.

Li Liang was also very happy. He had been taking care of Lu Lin for the past half month. Lu Lin was almost well now, and he could go out to work.

"I want to go to work too." Lu Lin said.

"Don't go. How can your head heal so quickly?" Yang Qing rolled her eyes at her. "The doctor said that only the external injuries have healed. The internal injuries haven't healed yet."

"And look, you're bald, how dare you go out there?"

Lu Lin ran over and hit her, "You're making fun of me!"

I couldn't help but touch my head and asked, "Is a bald head really ugly?"

Yang Qing smiled, "It's not ugly. Such a round head is really rare. I was just kidding you!"

"But it's really not appropriate for you to go out to work right now. You've had a craniotomy, and your bones haven't grown well in just two weeks. Don't let anything happen to you. It would be more trouble than good."

"Just stay home and take good care of yourself. Cook for us. Your food is delicious. I'm willing to eat what you cook."

Lu Lin smiled and said, "Okay, then I will be your cook and provide you with logistical support."

While eating, Yang Qing asked Lin Feng, "Did you hear any news about Shen Yuanming when you were at the base?"

Lin Feng glanced at Lu Lin and said, "Yes, I heard that Leader Shen never woke up and became a vegetable. Someone took over his job just after a week."

"Secretary Sun has also been assigned other work and is no longer a secretary. She was originally the secretary of Leader Shen. Now that Leader Shen is gone, the new leader doesn't need her, so he replaced her."

"Secretary Sun is now an ordinary employee. She has moved out of the villa and lives in an ordinary suite."

Yang Qing was a little surprised, "They won't even be allowed to live in the house?"

"Of course, there are not many villas to begin with, and they are all for senior leaders to live in. They are not leaders anymore, so how could they still live there? It's good enough that the hospital can let Leader Shen live there for free."

"The hospital is already short of medicine, and they're keeping a disabled person. An ordinary person would have been kicked out long ago."

"But I heard that he might not be able to stay there for free forever. The hospital charges fees, and he's not a leader anymore, so it's impossible for him to stay there for free forever."

"By then, Secretary Sun and the others might not even be able to pay for their medical expenses."

"They now rely on Secretary Sun and Jiang Jian's salary to make ends meet, otherwise they might not be able to survive."

Yang Qing glanced at Lu Lin, who had been keeping her head down and not saying anything, and asked again, "What about Chen Ting? With such a major change happening at home, she's still not working?"

"Her!" Lin Feng tutted and curled his lips. "The base did arrange a job for her in the beginning, but that young lady has been spoiled since she was a child and can't stand hardship. She can't even handle the easy work of an administrative office clerk. She has a bad attitude towards people and is always the subject of complaints."

"Others knew about her family's affairs and ridiculed her, and she couldn't stand it, so she quit in anger."

"Even if we assign her other work, she won't be able to do it for more than two days. Now she just sits at home playing all day and doesn't do any housework. She has to wait for her mother to come home from get off work to cook for her."

"Ah, what a parasite. It was fine if she had the conditions before, but now she's still so ignorant even in this situation. She must have been spoiled by her parents."

Yang Qing didn't say anything else. She brought this upon herself.

Now you understand the cruelty of the end of the world, right?

"By the way, how is Captain Chen?" Leng Yi asked.

"He's fine. He's a capable man and the leaders still value him very much. He also asked me to say hello to you. It's thanks to Captain Chen that I was able to get Li Liang's ten-day salary this time, otherwise he would definitely not have given it to me." Lin Feng said.

Leng Yi nodded. That was good. He hoped that the squad leader could live a good life.

After dinner, Yang Qing asked Lin Feng and Li Liang to stay in the same room and borrowed a bed to avoid having to trouble Leader Hao to arrange a room.

The next day, Leng Yi took Li Liang and Lin Feng to see Hao Zhiguo. He heard that Li Liang was a policeman before, and both of them had worked as security guards. They were also arranged to work as security guards in the compound. It was just when they were short of people, so they could be used.

Two months passed in a flash, and it was still midnight weather, but the temperature was getting lower day by day. Now it was over 20 degrees Celsius, which was the best time to get through.

However, because there is no night, many people have poor sleep, their bodies gradually become weak, and many people suffer from mental illness.

Although the epidemic has been brought under control, there are still people infected and the hospital is very busy every day.

In the past two months, Yang Qing's medical skills have improved by leaps and bounds. He has already mastered the art of meridians and can even do some simple acupuncture independently. Xie Yunfang is very happy and thinks that Yang Qing is the most talented student she has ever seen.

At the research center, Chen Rou and Zhang Ke's work has also made progress. The Guanzhong has grown true leaves and has begun to be transplanted into the medicine garden.

Once Guanzhong starts to be cultivated on a large scale, we will no longer have to worry about the shortage of this medicine.

However, Rhodiola rosea is still in short supply. The ones Yang Qing donated at the beginning have long been used up, so other medicines can only be used as a substitute.

But because of the initial donation of medicines, many critically ill patients were saved and the epidemic was alleviated.

Moreover, as time goes by, the toxicity of the virus gradually decreases, and there are fewer critically ill patients than before.

However, the epidemic has not been completely stopped and epidemic prevention work continues.

Three months passed in a flash. The cultivation of Guanzhong was very successful and had been planted in large quantities. The provincial capital also transferred some Rhodiola rosea from the north. The epidemic was well controlled, hospitals no longer needed isolation, and the number of people infected was decreasing.

During this period, Yang Qing planted two more crops of grain in his space, and the rice had reached more than 400,000 kilograms.

The number of cattle and sheep has increased from a dozen to more than thirty. The pigs are very productive and there are now more than a hundred of them. The rabbits are even more amazing. Because of their short gestation period, they can give birth to multiple rabbits in one litter, and there are already hundreds of them.

The farm in the space was almost unable to accommodate the rabbits, so Yang Qing had to kill a batch of rabbits and preserve them. After all, the food would not go bad if stored in the space.

The same goes for chickens, ducks and geese. We killed a batch, and now there are more than fifty of each kind left laying eggs.

There are already five fish ponds, and more than 2,000 kilograms of fish have been killed and preserved. Otherwise, more fish ponds would have to be dug.

The vegetables were harvested twice, and the Chinese medicinal herbs were harvested once, leaving only the ginseng in the field to grow for years.

Everyone's days are busy and fulfilling.

When we got home from work that day, we were having dinner when we suddenly felt that it was getting dark.

"Linlin, turn on the light." Yang Qing said.

I was stunned for a moment after I said that. It seemed like I hadn't turned on the light for almost half a year.

"It's getting dark!" Yang Qing looked outside, a little incredulous. "Is the polar day over?"
