Tian Tian was so cold that she didn't bother to be polite to them and sat down next to the brazier to warm her hands.
In winter, it gets dark early and fast. In the blink of an eye, it is completely dark outside. After washing up, everyone goes back to the house to sleep.
Tian Tian also returned to her own little room. As soon as she opened the door, a wave of hot air hit her in the face. Tian Tian's room was small, and the kang took up half of the area, so this room would be warmer than other rooms.
She closed the door and added a few more pieces of firewood into the kang. Now she had learned her lesson and stopped adding corn husks, which were not resistant to burning, into the kang.
Her father Tian Lisong even specially chopped a few smaller firewoods for her so that they wouldn't take up too much space in the house.
After adding the firewood and sealing the kang hole, Tian Tian went up to the kang and hung up the curtains.
The curtains in her little house were made by nailing three nails on the window frame, and then there were three small iron rings on the curtains, hanging on the nails, and they were all manually operated.
After hanging the curtains, Tian Tian took off her clothes, got into the warm bed that had been prepared early, and fell into a sweet dream.
But the sleep didn't last long, and soon Tian Tian was awakened by her extremely itchy feet.
She rubbed her feet subconsciously, intending to relieve the itch and continue sleeping. Unexpectedly, this was not an itch on the skin, but a deep itch under the skin. She didn't know if it was because she scratched too hard in her sleep, but the itch was a little painful.
This made Tian Tian very itchy. She tossed and turned in the bed, hoping to relieve the itch on her feet.
Later, she accidentally stretched out her feet, which came into contact with the cold air outside the quilt, and then pressed against the cool wall. Only then did her feet feel a little more comfortable. Tian Tian could no longer resist the sleepiness and fell asleep in a daze.
The next day, when Tian Tian woke up, she immediately lifted the quilt to look at her feet, and found that her toes were red and swollen.
She moved her toes, and the friction between the skin alone made her toes hurt and itch, and she didn't even dare to touch them.
To make matters worse, when Tian Tian got up and got dressed, she found that she had her period. It came silently in the middle of the night yesterday and Tian Tian didn't feel anything at all.
My aunt had already stuck to Tian Tian's mattress through her panties.
Tian Tian looked at her messy bed with a bitter face. She didn't care about her red and swollen feet anymore and quickly got up to tidy up the quilt.
The weather is cold now, and she can't boil water to take a bath. Besides, the kang has been burning all night and the fire has gone out long ago, so it's quite cold in the room now.
Tian Tian, who was wearing only a shirt and pants, had been freezing in the house for a long time. She took some mineral water from the shell and wiped herself simply, then changed all the soiled clothes and pants, and took out a sanitary napkin from the shell.
After she had her first period here, she was very glad that she had stocked up on lots of sanitary napkins when she went to the mall.
The sanitary napkin used by the original owner was actually quite good. It was not the kind that was filled with wood ash in a cloth bag as she had imagined, but the kind sold by the supply and marketing cooperative, with rubber sewn on the bottom and a cotton cloth on the top.
This sanitary napkin is still very expensive at this time, costing two dollars.
At this time, it is considered to be the best sanitary napkin, although it has been used by this body before.
But for Tian Tian, she and the original owner were two completely unrelated people, and psychologically she could not afford to use the sanitary napkins that had been used by the original owner.
The sanitary napkin in the shell is used every time when I have my period. It is comfortable, but the only bad thing is that there is no place to throw the sanitary napkin. This also includes the toilet paper that Gu Yinghua usually uses. How to dispose of it is also a problem.
Toilet paper is okay. Just throw it in after going to the toilet tomorrow, and then throw a few corn leaves in it to block it.
Moreover, when Lin Meiyu and the others have their period, they also use toilet paper, so it is not so obvious.
But sanitary napkins are not the same. Not only is there plastic underneath that cannot be degraded, but it can be dug out by digging out feces next year.
Such a large area would be very eye-catching, and anyone with eyes would definitely be able to see it.
In addition, Tian Tian was reluctant to use sanitary napkins. She was afraid that after using up all the sanitary napkins, they would have no use in the future. So she would put a thick layer of toilet paper on the sanitary napkins and then change the toilet paper when the time came.
When it comes to sanitary napkins, Tian Tian would wrap them in outer packaging paper after each use and then secretly take them into the house to burn them.
Once it burned, there was a very strong smell of plastic, so she had to secretly open the door a crack to let the smell out, otherwise her mother would definitely smell the smell when she came to her room to put something there.
Tian Tian sighed sadly. It turned out that where there is loss there is gain. If the zombie world in this world is stable, it is destined to bear some inconveniences caused by backwardness.
She went out with a wrinkled face, preparing to fetch some water to wash clothes. She also took apart the quilt and washed all the dirt on it.
The weather outside was too cold and the water in the well had frozen. Tian Tian went into the house and wanted to scoop some boiled hot water.
Lin Meiyu and Chen Guihua, who were cooking, turned around and saw Tian Tian, "Tiantian, wake up! The food here is almost ready, and we can eat soon, please wait a moment."
"Mom! Did you boil water this morning? I want to go outside to get some water." Tian Tian said.
"It's burnt! It's in the clay pot. Do you want to wash your face?" Lin Meiyu asked.
Tian Tian shook her head. "I had my period this morning, and my pants and mattress are all dirty. I want to get some water to wash them."
When she heard about this, Lin Meiyu immediately lowered her voice and said, "You can't touch cold water when you have your period. Wash your face first, and I'll get you some water later."
Tian Tian was too embarrassed to ask Lin Meiyu to help her with the work, and quickly shook her head, "Mom! I'll go melt the frozen ice first, and then I can boil some water when the pot is free. Besides, I'm just pumping some water, it's not like I need to wash clothes right away."
Lin Meiyu turned her head and looked at the pot. The food was almost cooked. She just needed to sprinkle some chopped green onions into it and it could be served.
There was still a lot of water in the ointment pot and the earthenware jar on the brazier, but that water would be used for them to wash their faces, so they would have to boil new water when it was used up.
"Okay then! Go water the plants yourself. Be careful not to get burned. And don't put too much water in at one time, or you won't be able to lift it." Lin Meiyu gave some more instructions and then scooped a full scoop of water from the pot for Tian Tian.
The water they are using now was drawn from the water tank yesterday. They didn't put too much water in the tank for fear that it would freeze and crack. They have used up almost all of it in this day and this morning.
