Chapter 103

Shi Lei and Cao Hongmin never imagined that the old man was so concerned about the situation in the community even though he was seriously ill. They were moved and naturally took it very seriously.

The two people told the old man in great detail what had happened in the community in recent times and the preparations that had been made.

Sure enough, Grandpa Gu, like Gu Kai, was very happy when he heard that the community relied on raising chickens and preparing feed for them to defeat insects.

When I heard that the chickens were now laying hundreds of eggs a day on average because they were fed well, and that this had boosted the economy of the entire community, I was even happier and had a smile on my face.

Afterwards, the two captains told the old man that they had received a notice from the city asking them to prepare for the possible rainy season.

They have decided to expand the chicken farm.

When he heard about the rainy season, the smile on the old man's face disappeared, replaced by visible worry.

Seeing him like this, the two captains looked at each other, and then Lao Cao asked, "Uncle Gu, is the rainy season really coming? We have never had a rainy season in Beining.

As far as I can remember, before the earthquake, the most talked about thing here every day was drought, and we talked about river interruptions every year, but there had never been any continuous heavy rain.

Isn't that the climate that only exists in Nan'an?"

When it comes to Nan'an, the atmosphere in the room stagnated for a moment.

Where is Nan'an nowadays?

The entire city was submerged in the sea, and this place name will never exist again.

Finally, it was the old man who spoke.

He said: "What time is it now? Can it be compared with before the earthquake? How is the weather now the same as before?

Have you ever seen acid rain before? Who would have thought that so many bugs would appear out of nowhere?

Nothing is regular now.

All we can do is to do our best to prevent it and make preparations in advance, just in case."

No one was speechless after hearing what he said, and the two captains could only sigh deeply.

Needless to say, Gu Kai and Shen Cong knew a little about the end of the world.

Sun Qing stared at the old man intently, as if she took his words as the truth and just wanted to listen more and understand more.

The old man also sighed: "Who knows if the rainy season will come? The country is in tatters now, and many advanced equipment is gone.

I heard that the weather satellites are out of contact now, so it is very difficult to predict the weather.

It's just that the rainy season is coming, and this is news from above. After all, the information received by the upper echelons is more accurate than ours, right?

We just need to do whatever the leader tells us to do, and we won’t suffer any loss.”

"That's true!" Lao Cao nodded repeatedly.

Shi Lei also said: "Yes, there are many capable people in the country. If we don't understand something, there will naturally be other people who understand it. Uncle Gu is right. We should not think too much. We should do whatever the country asks us to do.

Just like the previous insect plague, it only took a few days for the notice to come down, but it came as soon as it was expected?

If we hadn’t done the preparation work in advance and moved everything that could be moved out of the house, the losses would have been even greater!”

Everyone in the room nodded in agreement when he heard this.

With Mr. Gu's approval, the three of them could no longer stay in the house.

When the two captains thought of the chickens and the mess at home, they felt like their butts were on fire and they couldn't wait to go back.

Chen Cong and the others would not stay for long.

But when sending them to the door, Chen Cong thought for a moment and suggested: "Captain Shi, Captain Cao, build the chicken coop higher, don't think about the rainy season, think about the flood.

Think about what we would do if there was a flood? What would we need to do to keep the chickens alive and the people in our community safe and sound?

Just be prepared to that extent.”

Her words scared the three people!

Shi Lei didn't even want to leave. He turned around and said, "Xiao Shen, what news did you get?!"

Lao Cao was so shocked that his face changed color.

He was mainly responsible for the internal affairs of the community, and what Shen Cong said was most closely related to him, so it was impossible for him not to be nervous.

He reached out his hand and patted his chest, saying, "Xiao Shen, don't scare me. You can even give your brother a heart attack.

Can you tell us the truth, please..."

He pointed his finger above his head: "What do you think?"

Chen Cong shook his head: "Don't speculate, I don't know, and no one can tell me anything."

The three people opposite all looked unconvinced.

Sun Qing knew that it was not her turn to speak, so she said nothing. She just bit her lower lip and stared at Chen Cong, stubbornly trying to hear some definite information from her.

Chen Cong sighed and said, “Let me make it clear.

My two brothers and Sun Qing, I don't treat you as outsiders. Everything I say to you is the truth.

I would never say this to anyone else or in any other context."

The three people opposite nodded heavily.

Gu Kai silently closed the door again and let the three people go back into the house.

The three men were in no hurry to leave now. They didn't sit down either. Instead, they stood in a semicircle, surrounding Chencong.

Gu Kai walked over to his wife and stood beside her, once again acting as her support.

Chen Cong said: "I have been thinking recently that the weather is really too chaotic now. It is abnormal."

The three people's eyes dimmed for a moment, and no one said anything, waiting for her to continue.

"Don't think I'm being mysterious. I thought about it carefully, starting with the Qingzhou earthquake, then the Xishan earthquake, then our Bac Ninh, and then the subsequent floods, tsunamis, mountain torrents, volcanic eruptions... all the way to the recent drought and insect plague.

Each of these is an unprecedented disaster that will not occur once in hundreds or thousands of years.

And now, they have happened one by one in less than three years!

And it is large-scale and global in nature.

What kind of situation is this? This is aimed at making humans extinct!

To say it was a natural disaster is just a nice way of putting it.

This situation now should be considered the end of the world, right?

The more I think about it, the more I feel that this is the earth reshuffling its cards and it doesn't want us to get by.

So I thought, no matter how difficult it was before, it wouldn’t be much easier afterwards.

Either the whole earth will be quiet from now on and nothing will happen again, or once it happens, no matter what kind of natural disaster it is, it will inevitably lead to a disaster.

Definitely that could get us through.

Therefore, we must also be mentally prepared, and don’t just think about the good things, but also think about the bad things and make full preparations. "

The three of them raised their heads together, their eyes filled with horror!

Lao Cao opened his mouth, but couldn't utter a word.

Shi Lei clenched his fists tightly and turned his face to the side. His expression showed anger, despair, and sadness after seeing through everything.

Sun Qing burst into tears.

Obviously, everyone knew what Chen Cong said, but they either didn't dare to think deeply about it before, or they deceived themselves and were unwilling to admit it.

Once it is revealed, no one can refute it.

Chen Cong didn't want to see everyone like this, but she still felt that the necessary vaccinations had to be given first.

Although only two years have passed since the earthquake, more things have actually happened than Chen Cong experienced in the six years of his previous life.

The course of time has changed completely, and her previous experiences are no longer of reference value for the future.

The reason why she mentioned the rainy season in front of Liu Tuan before was because the insects stayed in Bac Ninh for more than 20 days, and then a heavy rain made them disappear.

So in her concept, the heavy rain was bound to come.

Unexpectedly, heavy rain came in this life, but it was acid rain!

The acid rain lasted only three days, and then it turned into a long period of sunny days.

There is a huge difference between the two.

So Chen Cong himself didn't know what would happen next. Would his previous experience still count?

This feeling of having completely lost control of the future actually made her feel a little at a loss.

So she could only make the matter sound more serious so that everyone would be more alert, and at least be prepared if something happened in the future.

Seeing everyone so shocked, Chen Cong felt a little uncomfortable, but he did not regret what he said.

Gu Kai glanced at everyone and knew that the deterrent effect his wife hoped for had taken effect.

But just intimidation is not enough. If people are scared silly, how will they be able to do their work in the future?

So, he decided to follow Chen Cong's words and start comforting her.

Gu Kai said: "Whether it is a natural disaster or the end of the world, everyone has their own way of living.

We can live through good days and we can also survive bad days.

There is no need for us to feel so bad, and there is no need to despair. We have come through all the difficulties and hardships before, so what obstacles will we not be able to overcome in the future?

No matter how difficult it is, it’s just this hard, right? How much more difficult can it be? "

At this point, he held his wife’s hand and continued, “Chen Cong said this because we are family, and because our families are together, we share the same joys and sorrows.

She hopes that everyone will not be complacent, but pay attention to every possible disaster and treat it seriously.

But it doesn’t mean that life from now on will be unbearable, not yet.

Captain Shi, Captain Cao, let's be honest, aren't our lives much better now than they were in the beginning?"

The two captains naturally nodded repeatedly.

Gu Kai smiled and continued, "Although there are many disasters, we have also become more capable! Now we have a way to make plants grow faster, and many people have superpowers.

In the past, no one would have dared to think about this, right?

What's more, the government has been doing its utmost to serve the people and working hard to improve everyone's lives.

I am not afraid to tell you the truth. Our country has done several major things recently, and the results have been seen.

Apart from anything else, I think after the Chinese New Year, our electricity problem will be solved, and most families will be able to use electricity by then.”

"Really?" Sun Qing asked in surprise.

"Really." Gu Kai nodded seriously.

"With so many people working together like a rope, what hardship can't we overcome? There's no need to be afraid. At worst, we can just continue to carry on together!"

Gu Kai's words seemed to be full of truths, but everyone present knew that they were not empty talk.

This is what everyone does on a daily basis and what they truly feel.

That is why these words become extremely powerful.

After the couple's "rubbing" that was both intimidating and encouraging, the three people walked out of the house with unsteady steps.

His face showed a daze as if he had not yet fully comprehended those words.

But without asking, one knows that these words have attracted their sufficient attention. At least when they are making preparations in the community later, they will definitely not harbor any fluke mentality.

Father Shen, Father Shen, Shen Xi and his two children arrived when it was getting dark.

Because he was worried that they might have brought too much stuff and would be crowded, when Shi Lei and his friends went back in the morning, Chen Cong specifically asked them to drive his electric bike back.

Fortunately, this was done, otherwise Father Shen and the others would not be able to sit down!

They really brought all the food they could from home, mainly the vegetables they had harvested recently.

After the insect plague passed, there have been no other disasters recently except for the three days of acid rain.

Because of the formation, the vegetables at home have been growing well. Apart from the part that should be handed over to the community, a lot of them can be left.

Needless to say, those green leafy vegetables that cannot be stored were definitely eaten as much as possible.

As for potatoes and sweet potatoes, Father Shen has always kept them well.

Fruits like eggplant, beans, pumpkin, tomato, and motherwort can all be dried or made into sauce, and they are all picked very well.

After all, there is a refrigerator at home, so it is more convenient for me to store food than for others.

Now that I know that my in-laws and son-in-law are injured and malnourished, I naturally prepared everything I could think of.

Both cars were so packed that they were about to burst.

After Tongtong and Shanshan returned to Beining, they only went out to play with their mother and aunt once, and then they encountered an earthquake, so they didn't have a good time at all.

This time, the two children were really going on a long journey, so they were extremely excited.

As soon as he walked downstairs, he started shouting at the top of his voice, calling everyone in the house downstairs.

Chen Cong and his wife, Zhou Ying and his wife, and Shi Chen went down to help.

It took such a large group of people three trips to move all the things. After moving everything up, everyone was so tired that they stood there gasping for breath and could hardly speak fully.

Chen Cong looked at the bottles and jars that filled half the room and suddenly laughed.

She said to Mr. and Mrs. Shen, “Mom and Dad, you have made good preparations and moved everything in place, which saves me a lot of trouble.

I told Shi Chen before that I would help you move, and ask you to move here and not go back to the community.

There is no need to say more now. You won’t have to leave after you stay here.”

Hearing her say this, Shen Jianyi, Shen's father, was the first to refuse.

He didn't even have time to catch his breath and directly retorted: "That won't work. There are still a lot of things to do at home! Let's not talk about the vegetables first, and the Chinese medicinal herbs your father-in-law planted, they are all treasures!

If you are willing to do so, why not ask Brother Gu if he is happy about it?

We will stay for a few days and leave when Brother Gu and Xiao Kai are well again."

Mr. Gu was also very happy to see his in-laws and old friends whom he hadn't seen for several months.

He didn't even want to lie in bed anymore and insisted that his son help him up and sit on the recliner in the outer room.

At this moment he was half leaning and half sitting, listening to everyone talking.

When he heard the question, he immediately smiled and said, "Why would I be happy or unhappy? It's good to keep the medicine, but there's no need to let it hold me back.

I agree with Congcong's suggestion that I should stay here for a few more days this time and not think about going back immediately.

I am in such a bad condition that I cannot move for a while, and I cannot follow you back to the community. You should just consider it as a concession to me and move in here.

We are a family, and it is better not to be separated forever.

Not to mention my health, I may need to take care of myself for a short period of time and will not go to work.

Congcong and Xiaokai must return to the working group. They can't stay at home all the time.

And Shichen and Cancan, they also have to go to work.

These younger generations definitely cannot return to the community for the time being.

If you live there all the time, the children will definitely worry about both sides.

Just think of it as a way to give the children some peace of mind. If you move in, they will feel at ease at work and won't have to worry about home.

I also benefited from my brother and sister-in-law’s help, and someone made me a hot meal.”

Mr. and Mrs. Shen really wanted to stay longer this time, especially after the two team leaders and Sun Qing went back at noon today and told them about the old man's situation.

They have realized that there cannot be a shortage of people at home.

But to be honest, if they were to stay here forever, at least Father Shen was a little reluctant.

After being used to living in the countryside, it’s a bit strange to move back to a building.

Even if the house owned by my daughter and son-in-law is a duplex and the area is not small, can it be as big as the villa at home?

What's more, the house has such a large front and back yard.

But he couldn't refute the old man's words, especially the sentence "They always have to go to work... someone has to make them a hot meal."

The children all went to work, leaving my brother alone at home. Not only are the children worried, but he himself is also worried!

Thinking of this, Father Shen did not say any more words of refusal, but just said: “Let’s talk about the future later, anyway, we are not leaving now.”

He looked at Mr. Gu and suppressed his sadness: "When you are fully recovered, we can talk about other things."

In fact, this was no different from agreeing to live here permanently, so Mr. Gu naturally nodded happily.

Originally, Mr. Gu lived downstairs, and it had been like this since they moved back to Fulin.

At that time, Jiashu lived downstairs, and the old man didn't want to go upstairs to join the young couple, so he chose to live with his nephew.

And this time when he came back, considering that he was in poor health and it was too tiring to go up and down the stairs, he didn't move at all.

But after the Shen family moved in, Shen's father was the first to express his disapproval of such living conditions.

He said directly: "Brother Gu, you can live upstairs. It is quiet upstairs and close to the rooftop. It is suitable for you.

Xixi and her family and I live downstairs. The two kids are noisy, and the noise from cooking and other things can be quite loud, which can easily disturb your rest.

As for the inconvenience of going up and down the stairs... There are so many people at home, who can't help you? Not to mention helping you and carrying you down, how many steps can you walk?"

Naturally, no one will have any objection to this statement.

Moreover, when he said that it was close to the rooftop, everyone could understand what Father Shen meant, which was basically saying that it was close to the formation plate, which would be helpful for Mr. Gu to recover his health.

So even though five people came into the house at once, because they were all very familiar with the place and it was their own home, they cleaned up quickly and everything was ready before going to bed.

In the days that followed, not only Mr. Gu, but even Chen Cong and his wife began to enjoy the good life.

There is still a difference between high-rise residential buildings and villas in the countryside. The biggest difference is——

Once the door is closed, you can do whatever you want and eat whatever you want without having to worry about what other people think.

Chen Cong and his family live on the 19th floor. The two houses downstairs and opposite have been bought by Liu Tuan and his team. In addition to being used for growing vegetables, they are all occupied by the young soldiers.

The little soldiers only came back at night and were not at home during the day. The houses were empty during the day and there was no one at all.

Zhou Ying and his wife both have a strong sense of boundaries. Although they are very familiar with the Shen family, they have always known how to keep a good sense of boundaries.

Just like after Chen Cong and his family moved back, Shi Chen and Can Can often came over to eat and drink, but Zhou Ying and her family didn't do that.

Even Xiaoyu would not take the initiative to come to the door.

Now that the Shen family has all moved here, Zhou Ying's family will not come over during meals.

They were even very cautious. Except for occasionally meeting each other upstairs when watering the vegetables and a few children were playing on the top floor, they seldom came to knock on the door or talk.

As for Shi Chen, although he had said a lot of angry words before, after being scolded by the old man, he still took back his words obediently.

These days, Chen Cong stayed at home to take care of his family, but he returned to the work group early.

Even Cancan was taken away by him.

Shi Chen was not trying to avoid suspicion on purpose. He was now close to the Shen family from the bottom of his heart and had spontaneously regarded himself as a member of the family. He had no intention of avoiding suspicion at all.

He is really busy.

Now all the bases in Bac Ninh are making preparations for rain and disaster prevention. He is also an important member of the working group. How could he possibly have nothing to do?

Therefore, the only people left at home are family members.

In this case, there is no need for Cheng Ru to cover up when cooking.

Stewed chicken soup, roasted spare ribs, steamed fish and stir-fried meat, all kinds of stews and soups…whatever is nutritious.

I just wish I could make a tonic pill to restore Mr. Gu's health in one go.

The old man who kept eating couldn't help but grumble, saying that he was an old Chinese medicine practitioner with so many years of experience, but he knew fewer folk remedies than Shen's mother.

I don't know where she got all this information from?

No matter where those folk remedies came from, more than ten days have passed, and both the old man and Gu Kai look much better than before.

Even her sunken cheeks had gained a little flesh.

Such results made Cheng Ru very satisfied and more motivated.

-

Time passed day by day, and the new year began in the blink of an eye.

The whole family spent a happy New Year's Day together.

During the New Year's Day, maybe because of the previous bugs, everyone was a little nervous. Although no one in the family said anything, everyone would subconsciously glance out the window from time to time throughout the day.

I was afraid that if I didn’t notice it, something unexpected would happen.

This situation lasted for a whole day.

Fortunately, nothing happened.

Although Wei Yan and Jia Shu were unable to return home to celebrate the festival with their families due to work reasons, they both asked someone to bring back some gifts.

Although those things were not expensive, just a few fruits and a small box of candies, they represented the thoughts of two people.

It is also to show the family that they are living well now and the elderly do not need to worry about them.

In general, the whole family spent a peaceful month together happily and enjoyed their life.

Everyone thinks this is good, and if it can continue like this, there is nothing more to ask for.

But happiness is always short-lived, and disasters always come quietly when people are unaware and least prepared.

The author has something to say:

I recommend this as a routine recommendation for the change of rankings. If you like it, please collect it~

Next book: "Reborn to the day when the natural disaster struck"

"Mom, wake up, we have to find my dad quickly."

This was the first sentence Ke Bei heard when she opened her eyes.

Then I felt my legs lighten as the heavy stone on them was lifted up and thrown aside by the boy in front of me who was less than six years old.

The severe pain came and she suddenly woke up, realizing that she was reborn, back to the moment before the natural disaster.

Returning with her was her son Cheng Tian, ​​who was born after the end of the world.

"Can you get up? Hurry up, the bridge is going to collapse!"

Without waiting for her to respond, her son grabbed her up, threw her on his shoulders and ran away.

Lying on the baby's back, Ke Bei closed her eyes silently, and understood——

The cub's superpowers returned with him.

--

After Cheng Gan retired from the army, he opened a car repair shop and had good business. In addition, one person's food fed the whole family, so he lived a happy life.

Until one day a bridge in the city collapsed, and a woman with a child found him and said to him -

"I am your wife and he is your son. Come with us now. We will die together as a family!"

Cheng Gan: “…”

I've never been in a relationship, so where do my wife and son come from?!

Copywriter 2: "Save the villain cubs in the infinite disaster"

Ten years after the end of the world, the couple Shao Qi and Le Xuan died surrounded by wolves.

When they woke up again, they found that they were bound together to a system called "Rescue Villain Cubs in Another World".

The system requires them to travel through various alien worlds, save those cubs who have either turned evil or died due to natural disasters, suffering, human frame-up, etc., and become their parents.

If the mission fails, they will return to the moment before their death when they were surrounded by wolves and experience the pain of being bitten by wolves again;

When the mission is finally completed, they will be able to choose a world they like to stay in and fulfill Shao Qi's last wish before his death.

Le Xuan turned around and asked: "What wish did you make before you died?"

Shao Qi: “…I forgot.”

In order to fulfill this forgotten wish, the two began to travel through various small worlds, saving cubs and trying their best to be good parents.

Apocalypse 1: In a world of biological alienation, rescue the genius boy who was forgotten in the laboratory by a scientific research boss;

Apocalypse II: Plants mutate, poison grows everywhere, and the search for the blind daughter begins;

Apocalypse III: natural disasters, extreme cold, and surviving with twin daughters;

End of the world 4: spiritual energy, supernatural powers, relying on the genius son to lie down;

…

Several years later, Shao Qi and Le Xuan felt relieved when they saw that the sixth child they raised had secured the position of the leader of the base at a young age.

The two of them waved their sleeves, left quietly without a trace of cloud, and returned to the original world.

Standing at the door of their former home, the two smiled at each other.

I didn't expect that the moment I pushed the door open, I would be met with six pairs of resentful eyes at the same time.

"Dad! Mom!"

Looking at the noisy kids in the room, Le Xuan rubbed his brows and tilted his head: "Isn't your wish to go home and live well together?"

Shao Qi: “…”

There is another sentence at the end - and our children.
