Hearing that it was time to eat, the Lu family members rushed out of the house one after another.
Because they were worried about not being able to pay the electricity bill, the Lu family had not turned on the central air conditioning since the temperature dropped. The entire villa was empty and as cold as an ice cellar.
Lu Bo and Xu Yilan were both wrapped in thick down jackets, and Lu Siyuan even came out covered with a thick quilt.
The family was so cold that their teeth were chattering. When they saw the steaming porridge on the table, they quickly picked up the bowls and started drinking.
Before the natural disaster, the Lu family would never even touch this kind of thing, but now they all drink it with more relish than each other, as if this pot of messy porridge was some kind of delicacy.
Seeing the whole family concentrating on drinking porridge, Lu Sixue tentatively said, "Mom, Dad, Xiaoyuan, experts say there will be heavy snow for at least the next two or three months. Our villa is so big, and it's expensive to turn on the central air conditioner. Why don't we move to another place?"
"If Dad doesn't want to sell this villa, then let's not sell it yet. Let's rent a high-rise apartment and stay out of the snowstorm for now."
Upon hearing this, Lu Bo put down the bowl in his hand, glared at Lu Sixue, and replied, "No! If we move, there will be no one to clear the snow at the villa. What if it collapses under the heavy snow?!"
Xu Yilan also slammed her chopsticks on the table, pointed at Lu Sixue and cursed: "I think you are just lazy! What are you talking about moving? You just don't want to sweep the snow! You damn girl, you are lazy even when cooking! You are lazy even when sweeping the snow!"
After saying that, Xu Yilan stood up, snatched the bowl in front of Lu Sixue, and said to her: "Don't eat yet, go out and find antipyretic medicine for your brother! Remember to come back soon! The snow on the roof is waiting for you to clean it up!"
Looking at her father-in-law who was full of hostility towards her, Lu Sixue's eyes suddenly became sore again.
But Lu Bo and Xu Yilan were too lazy to pay attention to her and ignored her tearful eyes.
Lu Siyuan, who was standing by, was even more indifferent. He had long since stopped wanting to acknowledge Lu Sixue as his sister. So he quickly finished his bowl of rice and quickly turned back to his room.
Lu Sixue could only swallow her anger. She put on her down jacket and prepared to go out in the wind and snow to borrow some antipyretic medicine from her neighbor.

On the other side, the Xia family had a sumptuous dinner that day.
The method Lin Jingjing taught them was very effective. The Xia family wrapped all the doors and windows in the kitchen tightly with tape, and did not turn on the range hood, but instead turned on two air purifiers.
After cooking a meal, there is basically no smell outside.
Grandma and Grandma Liu were busy putting the meal on the table. They cooked a total of six dishes that day.
The bright red color and rich aroma of braised pork make people salivate, the steamed fish is tender, the stir-fried choy sum is crispy and refreshing, there are also crispy fried chicken, delicious tofu pot and tasty potato and pork ribs... Each dish is served on a beautiful ceramic plate, exuding an enticing aroma.
Xia Shige carried the white cat into the restaurant, and his eyes lit up with joy as he looked at the delicious food on the table.
The heater in the room was on high, and there was an oil-heated heater. Although it was freezing cold outside with the temperature dropping to minus ten degrees Celsius, the room was still very warm.
Sun Yuegui was wearing a thin and soft home dress. Feeling a little hot, she unbuttoned the top two buttons.
Grandma looked at the time and saw that Xia Huiyin and Xia Guocheng had not returned yet. She asked worriedly, "Why haven't they returned yet? It's already dinner time. Did something happen?"
Sun Yuegui replied with a smile: "They have been distributing supplies all day, and then they went to clear the snow. There are too many things to do, so they will be back later every day!"
Grandma nodded and felt relieved when she heard this.
Sun Yuegui brought out another food box from the kitchen, which contained a layer of braised pork, a layer of fried chicken and a layer of spare ribs neatly arranged inside.
Sun Yuegui held the food box and said, "The Lin family sent us food before and taught us how to seal the kitchen doors and windows, which was a great help. We made some extra when we were cooking today, so let's send these to the Lin family!"
Xia Shige took the lunch box from Sun Yuegui and said, "Aunt, I'll go deliver it!"
Afterwards, Xia Shige put on his down jacket, wrapped the lunch box in a black plastic bag, and went to Lin Jingjing's house.
Because she was afraid of meeting other neighbors in the elevator, Xia Shige chose to take the stairs.
She climbed two floors, came to the door of 1806, and knocked on the door of Lin Jingjing's room.
