Chapter 252 It’s too dark

Shen Yanming took out the thermos, poured the ginger and sugar water into the lid, handed it to Bi Qiaoan and said, "Drink this cup and then sleep with me for a while."

Bi Qiaoan nodded, but the water in the cup was a little hot, so she blew it gently and then took a sip.

There was a lot of water in the pot, so Shen Yanming called Yu Shui and asked him to help distribute the ginger and sugar water to everyone.

All the colleagues who were chatting stopped to thank Shen Yanming, but Shen Yanming just smiled and asked everyone to continue.

After Bi Qiaoan drank the ginger and sugar water, she was not so sleepy anymore, but Shen Yanming still took out the quilt from the cabinet and wrapped it around Bi Qiaoan, letting her lean on him and take a nap.

"Oh, they are openly showing their affection!" Everyone joked with a smile.

Shen Yanming didn't care, he just said: "My wife is in a special situation and is prone to sleepiness."

"Of course, of course. We need to keep warm when the weather is cold." Everyone smiled, indicating that they understood.

Then, an evil wind blew in the office. Yes, an evil wind!

I saw several colleagues quietly taking out small quilts, small blankets and large scarves from the cabinet.

Shen Yanming was stunned, and Qin Yiren and the others all blushed.

"Well, we have prepared these a long time ago, but we are just embarrassed to take them out and use them." Qin Yiren stuck out her tongue and said embarrassedly.

Shen Yanming nodded and didn't care.

Listening to the chattering in the office, Bi Qiaoan fell asleep in a daze. When she woke up, there was still no call.

The sky was getting darker and darker, and it was obviously not suitable for the time of day.

Shen Yanming stood up and walked towards the window, only to see thick dark clouds gathering in the sky.

"This is, the situation is going to change again..." Shen Yanming murmured, then sat back down.

Not long after, Zhu Shiliang came in.

"I received a call from above. I don't think there will be any calls today. Everyone, pack up and go home. It looks like the weather is going to change again."

Zhu Shiliang left after he finished speaking. After he left, cheers broke out in the office.

Although their workload has dropped sharply since the end of the world, and they have holidays from time to time, it still can't stop everyone from wanting to get paid without working.

Uh, it sounds like everyone is just a parasite.

Actually, it’s not the case. Everyone is still very reliable in doing serious things, but there is nothing serious right now…

Shen Yanming and Bi Qiaoan took their empty lunch boxes and thermoses and went to the parking lot.

Looking at the dark sky outside, Bi Qiaoan sighed, "It's only a little after four o'clock and the street lights outside are already on. Is this the earliest time the street lights have been turned on in history?"

"Yeah, maybe. Who knows if it will snow today. Luckily, the lights on the way home are solar powered."

It does snow in Hai City, but not very often. In the past, every winter was a mixture of rain and snow.

But since the end of the world, the average winter temperature in Qinghua Country has dropped significantly.

Last year, due to drought, there was no rainfall in Hai City. As for this year...

"Isn't it the rain from last time?" Bi Qiaoan asked.

"It's hard to say, maybe it is, maybe it isn't, but whether it rains or snows, the temperature in Hai City will drop."

Bi Qiaoan pouted and stopped talking. Shen Yanming glanced at her and concentrated on driving.

When the two returned to Qingyu Community, the sky had turned from dim to dark.

Because of the power outage, Shen Yanming and Bi Qiaoan could only climb the stairs to go home.

When he got home, faced with the pitch-dark situation in the room, Shen Yanming could only take out several table lamps from the space.

Bi Qiaoan picked and chose, and chose two large, bright table lamps, one for the kitchen and one for the bedroom.

Then I chose two slightly dim small table lamps, one for the door and one for the dining room.

After all these arrangements were made, Shen Yanming took out the small stove he used last year from the space, took some effort to light it, and then stewed a pot of chicken soup on it.

"Are you okay at home? I'm going to the field to cover the wheat seedlings with a blanket." Shen Yanming looked at Bi Qiaoan and asked.

"Is Ji Kangyong here? Let's call him along!"

Shen Yanming nodded, "I'll call him later, but he may not be off work yet."

"Then put on your hat, scarf and gloves and keep warm. If it's too cold, don't do it and come back early." Bi Qiaoan instructed.

Chen Yanming smiled and touched Bi Qiaoan's head, "Don't worry, I won't embarrass myself. You stay safe at home. If you feel sleepy and want to sleep, put the stove into the space first."

"Okay, I understand. Go ahead."

Shen Yanming dressed neatly as Bi Qiaoan said, and called Ji Kangyong after he left the house.

As expected, this guy really hasn't returned home yet. According to him, he is on duty on a street.

The street lights on that street were out of order and it was too dark so they were afraid something might happen.

After Shen Yanming hung up the phone, he called Zhang Heping again, but this guy was still in the operating room.

“It seems that I can only rely on myself today.” Shen Yanming thought.

He thought he would be working alone on Qingning Mountain again, but he did not expect that Qingning Mountain was so lively, with many people busy in the fields.

Although no one knew each other and no one talked at such a distance, the light that flickered back and forth from time to time was like someone was by your side.

Shen Yanming felt relieved, smiled, opened the wire mesh gate of his house, and then began to lay corn stalks on top of the wheat seedlings.

In fact, he didn't know whether this was right or not, he was just following his inner thoughts.

Other people working in the fields are here because they saw the last news report about keeping crops warm during the cold weather.

Moreover, during this period they went to many places to look for grass mats and other things. Those who had connections even laid plastic sheets on the fields.

Shen Yanming didn't care how others dealt with it, he just focused on working in the fields.

He felt that time passed quickly because he had no time to think about anything else while working.

But I also felt that time was passing very slowly, because soon I started to feel back pain.

Faced with four acres of land, Shen Yanming really wanted to cry, but what could he do? He could only keep working.

When he finally finished paving two acres of land and wanted to take a break, he heard someone calling him.

Shen Yanming looked in the direction of the sound, and was surprised to see that apart from the light from the flashlight, he could only see two black shadows.

When the people came closer, we found out they were Chen Shunwei and Wang Lai!

"Long time no see, how are you doing recently?" Shen Yanming greeted them with a smile.

"It's okay, except that my family was a little worried when I was on duty outside some time ago. But now I'm fine, all that is over." Chen Shunwei said.

Wang Lai glanced at the corn stalks in Shen Yanming's hand and said loudly: "Brother, let me help you with the work!"
