Chapter 28 Rising Waters



"Give me some rice, noodles, vegetables, fruits, etc.

I also need some drinks and milk for the children.”

"Why?"

"What did you say?"

Old Mrs. Xia's voice was obviously a little hurried, as if she was still the tolerant daughter-in-law.

"I'm telling you, why?"

"Jiang Yuan, it's really rude of you to say that. Besides, I'm your elder.

You have been married into our family for so many years, you must know how I treat you.

Besides, if you hadn’t hurt Chaoyang, we wouldn’t have asked you for help.”

Haha, she's even trying to use moral blackmail. What is this old woman thinking?

Doesn't she know what it's like in the Xia family?

"You are just dreaming!"

"What did you say?"

"I told you that you are dreaming, let me tell you, old woman, I have tolerated you for a long time.

You are the most selfish, meanest, dirtiest person with the worst living habits I have ever met. I think you should live in a pigsty.

And your mouth stinks. Do you know why I didn’t like talking to you before?

Because you are so disgusting, as soon as you open your mouth, I can vomit out the food I ate overnight.

Don't think I don't know that your son went out to find a mistress and you helped him.

Let me tell you, you are a burden now. When there is nothing to eat in a few days, you will be the first one they abandon.

If you are asked to go out to find food, you must go, even though you are old and weak and can't find anything.

But if your son, Bai Mengmeng, and that cheap grandson of an unknown descent knew about this, they would definitely eat you up, so remember this!"

After Jiang Yuan said the last sentence, she immediately hung up, deleted and blocked the call.

She just didn't believe that Xia Chaoyang and Bai Mengmeng could just sit there and do nothing when Old Lady Xia called her. They must be watching from the side, ready to give her advice at any time.

Now, her words have planted the seeds of doubt on both sides.

When the time comes and there is really no food, the family will inevitably remember what she said today.

It's interesting when dogs bite each other.

After hanging up the phone, my parents looked worried, and Jiang Yuan said indifferently.

"I've been wanting to scold her for a long time. Today is really great."

Hearing her say this, the two of them felt relieved.

Then, he went to the window to observe the situation downstairs. In the afternoon, two groups of people went out one after another.

This is what she could see from upstairs, but as for what she couldn't see and went out through other doors, that was unknown.

There are 500 people in the community Cainiao Station group, and everyone is discussing going to the supermarket above to buy things.

It turned out that there were too many people, so there was a limit on what each person could buy.

Moreover, the price has increased three to five times.

Many people are complaining, but there are only so many things and if they don’t buy them, they will be gone.

"There isn't much left. If you need anything, hurry up. The water outside is already very deep, and it will be even harder to get out later."

Someone made this suggestion, and the people below agreed and asked a lot of related questions.

She also saw that the avatar of the woman on the 20th floor had moved. She was simply asking who could bring some food or if there was a ride.

It was undoubtedly the topic terminator. Five or six minutes later, there was new news, but it was about other issues.

There are not many cars that can go out, and there are few supplies. Who would be willing to be a good person?

The woman was unwilling to give up, so she @ed the guy on the 3rd floor in the group of Building 13, asking him if he was going out again. 0302: No, the water level is too high, and my car has blocked the chimney and cannot be started.

0902: Yes, luckily I went there early, I heard the garage was flooded!

1301: Indeed, the security guards have all left (with a sad expression...) 2002: Then can you give me some of the things you bought this morning? You can pay for it. I have children at home. Please be kind! ...

There was endless silence below again, and 2002 began to go crazy @ those who had left before.

But no one paid any attention to her. It was quiet, awkward, and silent...

2002 didn't give up and kept asking questions. He even @ed two people on the 21st floor, Jiang Yuan and Song Yi. In the end, no one paid any attention to him.

At night, the water accumulation became more serious.

On social platforms, many people are posting requests for help.

The low-lying areas have been flooded.

The government also arranged a rescue center as soon as possible, allowing everyone to rush to the centralized isolation center where masks were used for prevention and control.

It is right next to the high-speed railway station, which will be incorporated into the station later and become a shelter for survivors.

However, this situation now was not very realistic in the past.

The rain was so heavy and the water was so high that it would be impossible to get to places far away without transportation.

At nine o'clock, residents on the first floor began to ask for help.

The reason is simple: rainwater has seeped into the first floor.

There are three steps on their side, and there are two steps on the first floor, if you calculate the distance.

The water outside has already reached her thighs, so the water level in the shop at the door is probably up to her waist.

Because the road outside is narrow and the steps are high, she must go out today, otherwise many things will be submerged tomorrow.

Having made up her mind, Jiang Yuan didn't hesitate. When she went out yesterday, it was too early and many people were still awake, so she had to go out later today.

The weather seemed to be getting colder, so she wore an outdoor thermal suit inside, then put on a waterproof raincoat and a safety helmet on her head.

Apart from anything else, the rain hitting the head is still very painful.

Not only that, Jiang Yuan also took out the swimming ring she had used before.

If you run out of energy later, you can still use this to float on top.

However, there are also disadvantages.

If you are close to an open manhole cover and there is a whirlpool, it is particularly easy to be swept over.

If you can adapt, you still have to go on your own.

At night, she was always monitoring this place.

At twelve o'clock, 2102 really went out. When passing by 2101, he actually looked back.

Could it be that this person is thinking about going out too?

Jiang Yuan didn't have time to think about it and flashed into the space.

I put all the rice and flour I had prepared before into the attic, leaving only some fresh vegetables and other things, which I placed in front of the bed.

It can’t be seen if it is placed here. We are going to do a big thing tonight, so the place must be prepared in advance.

The remaining things were all in boxes and placed in the bathroom of her bedroom, so that when she came back, she could put them back quietly.

That's right, she was going to sneak out today and didn't intend to tell her parents.

Moreover, she deliberately asked Xiao Nuan to sleep with her mother, saying that she accidentally spilled water on the bed.
