After entering July, the weather has become even hotter. Now almost no one dares to go out. The outside is empty. Everyone hides in the room with the air conditioner on and the curtains are drawn tightly, for fear of any sunlight leaking in.
During this period, Xia Shige has been busy in the Peach Garden Space. The peach, apple and pear trees in the woods have begun to bear ripe fruits. Xia Shige picked some pears, boiled a lot of honey pear juice, and iced it for his family to drink.
The first batch of chicks and ducklings in the farm have grown up. Xia Shige caught several chickens and ducks and took them all to the farm.
There is an automatic slaughtering device in the factory, which provides a one-stop service including slaughtering, bleeding, depilating and removing internal organs.
Xia Shige had stored some frozen meat in the refrigerator a while ago, and the whole family had worked hard to eat some of it. Now they can finally start eating the animals in the space.
The breeding costs of farms on the market are too high, and most of them have gone bankrupt. Meat is no longer affordable for ordinary people. It is rare for a family like the Xia family to have several meat dishes on the table for every meal.
While picking apples and pears, Xia Shige found two new beehives. She cut off a part of them and prepared to continue making honeysuckle honey.
Tang Shiqi praised Xia Shige for the honey she gave her. She had some sleep disorders, and her sleep improved a lot after drinking the honey.
Xia Shige brought honey to Tang Shiqi's house and chatted with Tang Shiqi.
Tang Shiqi's house in the city center has been renovated, but she has no plans to move back for the time being. One reason is that high-rise buildings are too hot, and the other is that the city center is becoming more and more chaotic.
With prices soaring, there have been frequent looting and smashing of stores in the city center, and many home robberies.
Xindu Community is quieter than the city because there are fewer people here, so Tang Shiqi and Zhou Ran decided to live here until the situation returns to normal.
Tang Shiqi and Xia Shige were chatting: "Lu Sixue got engaged last month, and there were not many people at the wedding."
This is how the world works. Now the Lu family is on the verge of bankruptcy, and the Song family is also on the decline and has laid off several employees, so many powerful people still distance themselves from the two families. Lu Sixue's engagement scene was very bleak.
"There was another guest who didn't have a good relationship with the Lu family. He had heard some rumors that Lu Sixue was not the biological daughter of the Lu family, so he deliberately said that Lu Sixue and Madam Lu did not look alike. At that time, the faces of the people in the Lu family changed. The Song Yuhan family was also very angry, but it was difficult for them to refute anything."
Xia Shige hadn't received any news from the Lu family for a long time. A few days before Lu Sixue's wedding, Mrs. Lu bombarded her with phone calls, asking her to attend Lu Sixue's wedding. She also sent a lot of messages, crying that Xia Shige didn't understand her and made her very sad.
"Shi Ge, are you really that jealous of Si Xue?"
"Shi Ge, you and Si Xue are both my daughters. We are both dear to each other. Why do you want to embarrass me?"
"Shi Ge, are you sure you don't want to go home? If you don't come back to attend your sister's wedding, the Lu family will no longer recognize you as their daughter, and you will never have the chance to return to the Lu family!"
“…”
Xia Shige did not reply to any of these messages. She was too lazy to care about the Lu family. She knew that the Lu family would not have many days left.

After saying goodbye to Tang Shiqi's house, Xia Shige planned to go to Taoyuan Space to take care of the piglets on the farm. Two sows were pregnant, and Xia Shige planned to give them more feed.
At this moment, Xia Huiyin called, and Xia Shige quickly pressed the answer button. She heard Xia Huiyin say, "Daughter, can you come to the property management center now? We want to discuss something with you."
Xia Shige immediately responded when she heard this: "Okay, Mom, I'll be right over."
Xia Shige hurried to the property center under the scorching sun, her back wet with sweat. Xia Huiyin, Xia Guocheng and Lin Jingjing were waiting for her in the lobby.
Xia Shige walked forward and asked, "Mom, uncle, what happened?"
Xia Huiyin pulled Xia Shige aside and said, "Today, just as we opened the door, a robber suddenly broke in. He was holding a knife and said he wanted to rob the supermarket!"
