Qin Suyun was suddenly woken up by the cold in the middle of the night. She had been turning on the air conditioner, but was suddenly woken up by the sudden drop in temperature in the room.
She was still wearing her short summer pajamas. When she woke up, she was shivering with cold. The whistling cold wind mixed with the rustling sound of snowflakes hitting the ground made Qin Suyun stand up from the bed. She didn't even bother to look at the situation outside the window. She hurried to the closet to find her winter sweater and down jacket and quickly put it on herself.
By the way, he took out the thick quilt that he had prepared earlier from the cabinet, carried it and walked into the next room.
Dahei, One, Two, Three, Four, Five, Six, Seven, Eight, and Hei Dou all slept in the next room. Perhaps because both sides often took the spiritual dew dripping from the jade token, the puppies and Hei Dou had never fought or had any unpleasant incidents. Both sides were very friendly with each other. Even when the eight puppies were just brought home, Hei Dou showed considerable care for them.
Maybe it was remembering the kittens it had taken care of?
However, during this period, Hei Dou never brought back a kitten to keep by his side. Instead, he stayed at home obediently, sleeping lazily every day, and occasionally getting up to bask in the rising sun.
Qin Suyun was actually a little puzzled. She didn't quite understand why the cat was basking in the sun on such a hot day. It was obvious that the cat's favorite place these days was an air-conditioned room.
Is this what they call, basking in the sun with air conditioning on?
The temperature in the room suddenly dropped, waking up all ten furry friends who were sleeping. Seeing Qin Suyun carrying a quilt into the room to cover them, they wagged their tails happily. However, Hei Dou suddenly jumped out of his nest and crawled into Qin Suyun's down jacket, automatically looking for a heat source. This made her feel a little amused and helpless, as she had originally wanted to train the furry friends and herself to feel the sudden drop in temperature.
The wind and snow were blowing outside the house. Even without turning on the lights, Qin Suyun could see the snowflakes falling through the window. The big trees outside the house rustled in the wind and snow, and the dense snowflakes made her feel a little worried...
She felt that what happened in her dream seemed different from what happened before her eyes...
She really couldn't remember whether there had been such a sudden heavy snow in her first dream. From the extremely high temperature, the temperature suddenly dropped and snow fell.
Logically speaking, it was impossible for her not to notice such a big thing in her dream.
However, she had never experienced such a sudden heavy snow in her previous dreams... Maybe there were high temperatures, but the memory of winter in her dreams was that this winter was particularly cold and long, but the way winter came was also the same as usual, with the temperature gradually dropping, rather than the sudden scene in front of her that would catch people off guard.
Qin Suyun pursed her lips and frowned slightly. The black bean in her arms seemed to feel the uneasiness in Qin Suyun's heart. It poked out a furry black little head, licked Qin Suyun's chin, and stepped directly on her belly with its soft and warm little paws, bringing her warmth in the dark night.
Qin Suyun frowned as she touched Hei Dou's little head, wondering in her heart whether she should go to the village chief to remind him about the heavy snow tonight. She had been communicating with people in the village recently and knew that there were still several households in their village where only the elderly lived. The young people had gone out to work to earn money. If such elderly people living alone were left at home, they might be frozen to death at home if they were not careful.
When watching TV some time ago, I often saw that some elderly people had air conditioners at home, but in order to save electricity, they kept their bodies at home and died of heatstroke. Their bodies were left at home for several days and no one knew about it. It was only after the neighbors smelled the stench of the corpse that they let the firefighters break in, or called their children.
Zhao Xingguo is a responsible village chief. Qin Suyun has seen Zhao Xingguo running to the homes of these elderly people from time to time these days. He chats with them and cares about their lives when he has nothing to do. He treats these elderly people as his own elders.
Of course, most of the people in Wanxi Village have the surname Zhao, just like many people in Lixi Village have the surname Cheng. Many of them are related by blood.
However, before Qin Suyun could finish thinking about these things, she suddenly heard a series of knocks on the door outside the house.
Qin Suyun was startled, stood up, and looked out the window. She saw the light of a flashlight flickering outside her courtyard wall.
Zhao Xingguo's shouts outside the house, mixed with the sound of wind, snow and knocking on the door, kept coming into the house, "Miss Qin! Miss Qin! Miss Qin, are you home?! Miss Qin! Miss Qin!!"
"Miss Qin! Miss Qin! It's snowing heavily outside, wake up quickly!!" In addition to Zhao Xingguo, there was also a younger male voice outside the house.
When Qin Suyun heard the voice, she immediately thought of Village Chief Zhao's eldest son. She pondered why the two men had come to see her at this time. Were they specifically coming to warn her about the sudden heavy snowfall? Everyone in the village knew she'd been living there every day these days. Qin Suyun thought about it, turned on the light, and got out of bed. She was still wearing her down jacket, so it didn't bother her. She slipped on her slippers and went downstairs. Dahei, who had heard the voices, hurried out from the next room.
He followed Qin Suyun in a protective manner and walked into the snowy yard together.
"I'm coming... Village chief, what can I do for you?" Village chief Zhao and his son were standing outside the door. Qin Suyun frowned and hesitated. She was a single woman at home, and she always felt it was not appropriate to open the door in the middle of the night.
"It's nothing! I just saw it suddenly snowing outside, and I was afraid something might happen, so I walked around the village to check on the situation. I saw that your house didn't have any lights on, so I was worried that you were like Aunt Yang and her family at the village end, and fell asleep and didn't wake up. It's not good to freeze to death in this weather. Okay, you don't have to come out to open the door, hurry back, don't freeze to death! I still have to check on other people's houses!"
Zhao Xingguo and the other man who were standing at the door saw the lights in Qin Suyun's yard turned on and heard the barking of dogs, and immediately shouted towards the yard. Snowflakes fell on them, but they didn't feel cold and hurried to the next house again.
Qin Suyun listened to the footsteps getting farther and farther away outside the courtyard gate, and the flashlight light disappearing at the door, and always felt a sense of inexplicable guilt in her heart.
She felt that she seemed to be a little too vigilant, and she felt ashamed of herself in the face of the kind heart of Village Chief Zhao.
They came knocking on the door in the middle of the night in the wind and snow because they were worried that the villagers were sleeping too deeply at night and didn't wake up when the temperature dropped, and would get sick from the cold the next day. But he was thinking of something else.
Although the temperature changes during this period were a bit strange, society is now stable... It is not the apocalypse in the dream where famine is rampant and people's hearts are vicious... Was her reaction too big?
But it is always unsafe for a woman to live alone at home, so she sometimes thinks a lot.
Qin Suyun squatted down and touched Dahei's head, sighed, and walked into the house with Heidou in her arms.
If it was anything like the dream, this winter would be tough. The gasoline she'd collected might not be enough, so she'd have to make more trips to gas stations. She'd also have to go to the city to see if the solar panels she'd ordered had arrived.
In future power outages, the only power generation tools she can find are gasoline generators and solar panels.
