Chapter 57: Catching

"Alas, that's the good thing about being young, you don't have to worry too much. My house has been packed with people these past two days, and I'm exhausted. Look, I have dark circles under my eyes, which I can't even cover." Chen Qing said, pointing at his own dark circles.

"It's the same in our family. It's a mess!" Wei Qin rubbed her temples to show that she felt the same way.

"My parents and my wife's parents are here, and they almost brought my brother-in-law and his family to our house. You know, my house is only 90 square meters with three bedrooms. You don't know that my wife and I have to squeeze into one bed with our son and daughter, and we can't sleep at night. Maybe in a few days I will have to sleep on the floor." Shi Leyong shook his head and sighed, looking like he had lost all hope in life.

"What happened?" Li Yueya asked in confusion.

"Many low-lying rural areas have been flooded. I guess everyone has moved to the city to live with their relatives." Bi Qiaoan recalled the flooded suburbs he saw that day.

"I know, I know, it's because it has rained for almost three months and all the low-lying areas are flooded.

In fact, if it just rains, the problem wouldn't be big. The key is that many villages don't have tap water, so those places can't get clean water, and many people are sick. Recently, there have been a lot of cases of gastrointestinal infections and fever in the hospital.

Besides, it rained heavily for a long time, and there were only dry toilets in the village, you know?" Yu Shui raised his eyebrows and asked Li Yueya.

Without waiting for Li Yueya to answer, Yu Shui continued, "The dry toilets were all flooded. You know, after they were filled with water, you can hardly step foot in those places. Not to mention that some bungalows are leaking because of the rain, and some walls are moldy, moss and poisonous mushrooms are growing. It's terrible."

"Yes, my mother-in-law cried and said that people in the village couldn't even get water to eat. Many people ate unclean food and had vomiting and diarrhea. They were sent to the hospital overnight. She cried and said she didn't want to die. What could I do? I could only take her in and take good care of her."

Wei Qin sighed and continued, "Normally it's okay for them to come and stay for a day or two, but this time it's hard to say how long they'll stay. We have different living habits from the old people, and if we're together every day, we'll have conflicts if we're not careful."

"My sister quarrels with my uncle's little cousin every day, which gives us a headache. But you said, we can't kick my uncle and his family out under such circumstances." Chen Qing also talked about his troubles.

Bi Qiaoan sighed, "This is for those who have relatives in the city. Those who don't have relatives in the city don't know what to do."

"Someone should be in charge. You see, everyone is talking about this online. Maybe there will be a solution in a few days." Yu Shui took out his mobile phone and pointed at the news on Weibo and said to everyone.

"I hope so!"

While the discussion was still going on here, over there, Shen Yanming was distributing wedding candies and invitations to everyone by himself.

"Why didn't your wife come?"

"It's raining heavily now, I don't want her to suffer any more."

“Chen Yanming, are you really getting married? You are still so young, you…” Michelle took the invitation, her heart aching as if it was stabbed by a needle.

Shen Yanming interrupted Michelle directly, “My wife and I have been childhood sweethearts, and we are destined to be together.”

Michelle seemed to have lost her mind and yelled, "Don't you get tired of living with the same person for so many years?"

Shen Yanming frowned and said in a cold voice, "Then I wish you to have new people every day in the future!"

“Shen Yanming you…” Michelle looked at Shen Yanming in disbelief after she reacted.

However, Shen Yanming ignored him, left the office with the invitation, and went to find Zhu Shiliang. He also specifically asked Director Zhu to bring Zhu Ranran with him.

Shen Yanming and Bi Qiaoan were going home after get off work. As soon as they got out of the elevator, they saw a middle-aged couple coming out of 1601. The couple was stunned when they saw the two of them. Shen Yanming frowned immediately. Bi Qiaoan was about to ask something when he saw Zhang Heping's girlfriend Song Qingqing coming out.

Song Qingqing smiled awkwardly, "You're back, this is my mom and dad."

Bi Qiaoan smiled and said, "Are you going out?"

"Well, there's nothing to eat at home, so I was just about to go out and buy some." Song Qingqing felt guilty as if she had been caught, so she pushed her parents to the other side of the elevator and pressed the down button.

Bi Qiaoan nodded without saying anything more, and went into the house with Shen Yanming.

"Why do I feel like there's something wrong with Song Qingqing?" Bi Qiaoan said to Shen Yanming while changing shoes.

"Eighty percent of the time, Zhang Heping doesn't know that she has brought her parents here." Shen Yanming said in a bad tone.

"It's hard to say. Maybe they are getting along well now, or maybe Zhang Heping is kind-hearted and brought her here. Our colleagues said that many people from the countryside have come to the city to live with their relatives recently."

"Yes, I've heard that in some places, the sewage from the flooded areas has even flowed out. If it weren't for the energy rain, there would have been a plague."

"But I heard that many people went to the hospital for gastrointestinal inflammation?"

"Energy rain is not a panacea. It's good enough to be able to survive in that environment."

Bi Qiaoan thought about it and agreed. After all, there really was a plague at the end of the world. Compared to the plague, vomiting and fever were nothing.

Seeing Bi Qiaoan turned and went into the kitchen, Shen Yanming picked up his phone and sent a message to Zhang Heping, "Come home and visit when you have time!"

Zhang Heping was stunned when he received the message. It was most likely that something happened in his family, but it was not a serious matter. So there was only one possibility, that Song Qingqing was causing trouble again.

Zhang Heping scratched his greasy short hair with his right hand and cursed irritably, "You really give me a lot of trouble!"

"Doctor Zhang, there's another emergency!"

Zhang Heping immediately adjusted his state and rushed to the emergency room. As for going home, he would wait until he had time!

After a few more days, Shen Yanming and Bi Qiaoan finally figured out that the mushrooms would become saturated after absorbing energy for about five days, so Shen Yanming and Bi Qiaoan went to harvest a wave of mushrooms every five days.

In the past few days, all the orders for Sweet Pastry House have been completed, and the goods ordered by the printing factory have been delivered to the warehouse. Shen Yanming has also gradually put them into the storage space.

In the past few days, Shen Yanming and Bi Qiaoan also invited other colleagues to attend the wedding and sent invitations to their friends.

In the past few days, Qinghua Country has also taken some measures. For example, it encourages residents with difficulties in living in the villages to go to the city and temporarily stay with relatives. If they really have nowhere to go, they can apply to the Qinghe Alliance to temporarily stay in designated hotels. Of course, the cost of food and accommodation will be shared by the Qinghe Alliance and the residents themselves.

As a result, the deserted hotel suddenly became crowded with people.

----------

In the office of the Qinghe Alliance in Dijing, Chief Alliance Officer Li Cheng received a phone call.

"General, those people from my family who went abroad will be back in the next two days. I heard that they have noticed it abroad and are no longer allowed to export. They were almost detained and couldn't come back..."

After hearing this, General Alliance Officer Li comforted the people and said that they should come back quickly and safety is the first priority.

Afterwards, Chief Alliance Officer Li contacted other people to understand the situation. Most countries had already noticed their little tricks, so Chief Alliance Officer Li made a decisive decision to withdraw all of them.

Now, it was just a matter of waiting for everyone to return and hold the meeting.

Some things are time to be made public!
