Jiang Fei looked down and saw that the soles of his shoes had melted and stuck to the ground, forming a thread.
Recently, she had to work with the rescue team, so she stopped wearing sneakers and changed into plastic sandals, which are comfortable and breathable.
But I forgot that if I stay outside for too long, the plastic will heat up.
After taking out a pair of new shoes and putting them on, Jiang Fei drove the truck to Ping An store.
It was not time for dinner yet, so Su Liuyuan, Zhou Wanqing and Jiang Xiaoshi were staying in Ping'an Mini Supermarket.
Jiang Fei asked them to close the store early, move the 10 boxes from the carriage to the first floor of the store, and also brought Jiang Zhengkang and others over.
"We will be closed for the holiday starting tomorrow, so please don't come to work."
"Uncle, you, Han Yang, and Xiao Shi live on the second floor of the store. If you want to open the store, open it. If you don't want to open the store, close it and stay upstairs."
"I don't know when the extreme heat will end. If you run out of supplies, you can use what's in the store."
"The supplies in these boxes are your supplies. Two boxes per person, one box of food and fruit, one box of daily necessities and cooling supplies, not counting Yao Jin and Niu Er."
Yao Jin was unhappy: "Why don't I have it?"
"Niu Er and I are responsible for the hygiene of the two stores. You can see such a clean environment, all thanks to us!"
Jiang Fei stabbed Yao Jin's heart: "Your father said that you don't need to be paid, you two are free laborers."
Yao Jin: “…”
Is he his father's biological son? !
It was all in vain, Yao Jin was so angry that he took Niu Er home from get off work.
Zhou Wanqing asked Jiang Fei: "Boss, are you still cooking tonight?"
"Let's have hot pot."
It was a rare occasion that all his teammates were present, so Jiang Fei went to the freezer to get some meat.
Su Liuyuan and Ling Zhaorui went upstairs to set up the table and prepare the dishes and chopsticks for the boiler.
Xiao Chuxia and Zhou Wanqing were responsible for washing the vegetables and putting them on plates.
"You cut the meat, I'll go pick up Grandma Xu." Jiang Fei handed the meat to Lu Yu, changed to Su Liuyuan's MPV, and drove back to Mingshang Apartment Complex.
With the key to Room 201, Building 5, Jiang Fei opened the door and walked in.
Old Mrs. Xu was sitting on the sofa, eating a pack of instant biscuits.
Seeing Jiang Fei, Old Lady Xu smiled instantly: "Jiang girl, how did you get in?"
"This is the key Qianyao gave me. He doesn't have time to come back recently, so I plan to take you to live at my house. There's a hot pot in the restaurant tonight, let's go eat together."
Fearing that she would cause trouble to Jiang Fei, Old Lady Xu waved her hand and said, "No need. I can do nothing at home by myself."
"Look, the cucumbers I planted on the balcony are almost growing. There are also several boxes of food and buckets of water in the kitchen. There is no shortage of food and drink."
"I'm on the second floor of Building 2. There are two rooms. If grandma is not used to living with me, you can go there." Jiang Fei pretended to be angry:
"Grandma, if you don't agree, I will never talk to you again."
"Hey you girl, use what I said before against me."
Unable to persuade Jiang Fei, Old Lady Xu had no choice but to agree.
Jiang Fei helped Old Mrs. Xu pack her luggage.
She has food and water, so just some clothes to change into will be enough.
After helping Old Mrs. Xu get into the car, Jiang Fei placed the luggage on the back seat and returned to the Ping An Inn.
Lu Yu and his friends have already prepared the ingredients and base for the hot pot.
Two rice cookers, one for spicy and one for mushroom soup.
On the table there were tofu skin, asparagus, special cabbage, wood ear, yellow radish, prawns, pork slices, lamb rolls, and various kinds of mushrooms.
Zhou Wanqing also prepared two dipping sauces, spicy and three-fresh.
"Grandma Xu! I miss you!" Xiao Chuxia affectionately took Grandma Xu's arm and pulled her to sit down.
"Xiao girl has become thinner, and Xiao Rui has become tanned." Old Mrs. Xu looked at the two children with heartache.
Su Liuyuan couldn't help but move forward: "Grandma, what about me?"
"You're still as handsome as the first time I saw you."
"I just like listening to grandma talk!" Su Liuyuan smiled, revealing his big white teeth, and introduced Zhou Wanqing and others to Old Mrs. Xu.
Jiang Xiaoshi's sweet words made Old Mrs. Xu laugh uncontrollably, and the atmosphere was warm and harmonious.
After eating hot pot, Jiang Fei gave the key to the Ping An supermarket to Jiang Zhengkang, and drove back to Beimingshang with everyone to pack up 203.
Jiang Fei and Lu Yu, three boys, helped to move generators, air conditioners, small freezers, diesel, buckets, four-piece bedding sets and other supplies from Room 302.
Lu Yu was connecting the wires while Su Liuyuan and Xiao Chuxia were cleaning the place.
After cleaning up, Jiang Fei went to Room 201 of Building 5 and moved the vegetables grown by Grandma Xu.
I went back upstairs and moved 2 boxes of milk, 2 boxes of drinking water, 2 boxes of fruits and vegetables, 1 large bag of dried fruits and roasted nuts, and a large bag of fresh beef.
Old Mrs. Xu didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "Jiang girl, you want grandma to die of starvation."
Jiang Fei: "I still have a lot at home, grandma, you can eat as much as you want, don't be polite."
Our family has the conditions!
In order to prevent Old Lady Xu from worrying too much about Xu Qianyao who was working outside, Jiang Fei took out a new walkie-talkie.
"Grandma, this is an intercom. You can contact Qianyao and let you know he is safe." Jiang Fei taught Grandma Xu how to use it.
After sorting out 嗽203, Jiang Fei and others went back to their homes to rest.
The temperature began to rise by 1°C a day, and within a week, it had reached 60°C.
The heat-insulating film on the windows and the heat-insulating panels installed outside block out most of the ultraviolet rays and heat, but the room is uninhabitable without air conditioning.
Jiang Fei once turned off the air conditioner, and the room soon became stuffy like a steamer.
The corridor was extremely hot, and the thick air seemed to block one's mouth and nose, making one feel suffocated.
It is hard to imagine how the survivors, who only have refrigeration units, can survive this high temperature.
The water supply was also reduced from the original 45 minutes to 15 minutes.
And there is no specific time, you have to keep the faucet open and wait for the water to come.
The water flow is very small and it takes about half an hour to fill a washbasin.
It’s barely enough for drinking, but forget about cooking or washing.
The only thing to be thankful for was that the safety center had taken very good fire prevention measures and no fire broke out anywhere.
Unable to go out, Jiang Fei became a workhorse.
Apart from having lunch with everyone every day, I spend the rest of my time in the supermarket farming.
The rice was ripe, and Jiang Fei harvested it with agricultural machinery and placed it on the open space nearby to dry.
Then I harvested the fruits and vegetables from the plantations and orchards and planted new ones.
After working in both gardens, the rice was dry.
Jiang Fei husked the millet with his hands and used a rice mill to remove the husks, and he harvested 800 kilograms of rice.
I couldn't wait to cook a pot of rice.
The rice produced in the supermarket exudes a rich aroma, has a moderately soft texture, you can feel the chewiness of the rice grains, and has a light sweetness.
After the first successful rice planting, Jiang Fei expanded the rice field by two acres and set aside another acre to grow wheat.
After finishing all the work, Jiang Fei was so tired that he didn't want to move at all.
It just so happened that the herbs that were planted previously sprouted new plants.
You can collect it when you have time. Anyway, it is extremely hot now and the goods cannot be delivered.
Jiang Fei left the supermarket. It was already eight o'clock in the evening. He had just slumped down on the sofa when he heard a knock on the door.
"Miss, have you rested?"
Hearing it was Xiao Chuxia's voice, Jiang Fei went to open the door without wanting to move.
Xiao Chuxia: "New Year is coming soon. Su Liuyuan found some red paper and brushes and ink and asked Grandma Xu to write Spring Festival couplets. Everyone is in Room 203. Do you want to join in the fun?"
Jiang Fei was stunned for a moment, then he remembered that the Chinese New Year was only two days away.
