Chapter 169 Chapter 169 Flood
Everyone panicked.
Zhang Liqin collapsed: "There's no thunder or rain, where do these waves come from?"
It's impossible to appear out of thin air.
He Junxia: "From another world."
Zhang Liqin smiled bitterly: "Brother, it's already this time, and you still want to joke around."
Not only did he collapse, but others who had finally had a few days of leisure also collapsed.
God really won't give them a way out?!
As he was speaking, a wave as high as four or five meters came crashing down, and the building shook again.
He Junxia stopped the panicked people and said, "If you have children, keep an eye on them. Everyone, put on your life jackets, pack your belongings, and stay by the boat."
"Follow my instructions."
Although the fierce water conditions were not suitable for sailing, if the government building could not hold on, they would have no choice but to risk going into the water and find new shelter.
He Junxia prayed silently in her heart.
I hope the contractor didn't cut serious corners when building this government building.
“Boom! …Boom!”
The sounds of two huge objects falling into the water in succession made everyone's scalps numb, and then they saw a high-rise building with more than ten floors collapsed with a loud bang.
That was the house that was topped off and sold last year.
Huge concrete blocks crashed into the water, creating a huge splash and the screams of people who were left with nowhere to go.
Everyone's face turned pale
They couldn't describe their feelings at the moment in words, but it would be difficult for anyone who saw this scene to remain calm.
Some people sat on the ground as if they had lost all their strength, their eyes filled with grief and deep despair after witnessing the suffering of their fellow tribesmen.
A sense of helplessness and absurdity also surged into my heart, making it difficult to accept the reality before me.
Why did these fish, this water, these huge waves, these things that shouldn't be there, suddenly enter their world?
"Bang" "Bang"
Waves slammed against the tall buildings, and the glass that resisted stubbornly could not withstand the impact of the waves and shattered.
The sound of the glass breaking was not obvious despite the sound of the waves, but to everyone's ears it was like a crack in the sky.
"Stay back, don't go near the glass."
He Junxia picked up the person who was lying on the ground and quickly moved away from the place with glass. The children who used to be lively and playful were also strictly controlled by their parents.
Time passes by bit by bit
I don’t know whether it was the prayers in everyone’s hearts that worked, or whether the construction company had laid a solid foundation when building the government building.
Although the building was shaky, it still managed to hold on, and some buildings built in earlier years also survived.
However, not far away, the elevator apartment complex that was built only last year has lost one building after another, which makes people feel terrified and scared.
Su Guizhi held onto the table and said, "An old classmate of mine bought a house here for over 800,000 yuan."
Under the name of river view room, the price of the house is nearly 1,000 yuan higher than that of ordinary houses. I didn’t expect that it was all for show and would fall down as soon as the waves hit it.
Murder for money, murder for money
Su Guizhi sighed deeply: "The developer cut corners and killed people!"
He Junxia's eyes darkened.
A wave of anger surged in his heart, and a strange idea suddenly popped into his mind.
——The human world is dirty and ugly. Instead of letting them be an eyesore, it is better to leave the world peaceful.
The second after the thought came to his mind, He Junxia froze in his tracks. His brows furrowed, unable to believe that this idea had come from his own brain.
There are dirty and ugly people in the world, but there are also beautiful and kind people. How can we condemn everyone based on the behavior of a few people?
This is outrageous.
He Junxia shook off the inexplicable thoughts in her mind, but Wei Lingyu suddenly covered her stomach and cried out in pain.
He Junxia turned around instantly and rushed to where Wei Lingyu and Miao Yueze were. Liang Cai and the other two also hurried over with instruments.
"Wife, it's okay, don't be afraid, the doctors and nurses are all here."
Miao Yueze held Wei Lingyu's hand tightly.
"Sister-in-law, listen to my voice. When I say inhale, you inhale. When I say exhale, you exhale."
Wei Lingyu was fine and uninjured, but she suddenly felt a stomachache. Besides internal causes, He Junxia suspected it was most likely related to the sudden surge.
The scene of the turbulent waves and the collapsed building just now is so difficult that even a normal person would find it difficult to calm down quickly, let alone a pregnant woman who is already emotionally sensitive.
"Come, look at me and breathe in."
"Good, exhale."
"One more time, breathe in."
"Exhale."
Under He Junxia's command, Wei Lingyu's breathing gradually became steady.
Xie Shutian glanced at the value on the instrument: "The blood pressure is a little high."
Liang Cai asked: "Sister Lingyu, are you still in pain now? What exactly do you feel?"
"It doesn't seem to hurt anymore." Wei Lingyu touched her stomach: "But I still feel like vomiting, but I can't."
Liang Cai pondered: "It should be stress-induced hypertension caused by being too nervous. How about this, you lie down and I will give you a massage."
After all, she was not a professional obstetrician, and Wei Lingyu had no obvious bleeding symptoms, so it was not appropriate for her to prescribe medicine without authorization.
"Xiao Xie, Xiao Wen, press on the upper part, don't touch the belly."
The three of them gave Wei Lingyu a full set of soothing massages, neither too light nor too heavy, from her face to her wrists, thighs, calves and ankles.
Liang Cai asked again: "What about now? Get up slowly and move around."
Wei Lingyu slowly stood up, holding her husband and brother-in-law's hands. She walked back and forth a few steps and said in surprise, "It seems to be better now."
Liang Cai nodded: "Let's measure your blood pressure and blood sugar again."
The measured blood pressure has returned to normal levels but the blood sugar is a little high.
When He Junxia saw the number on the blood glucose meter, her brows, which had just relaxed, wrinkled slightly again.
Gestational diabetes is also a common disease among pregnant women. Wei Lingyu was originally overweight, and she became even fatter after pregnancy.
"What's wrong? Is there a problem?"
Wei Lingyu's heart tightened. She had already suffered psychological trauma from her previous reaction.
Liang Cai comforted him: "It's a small matter, my blood sugar is a little high. You should pay attention to your diet during this period and eat less porridge."
You can't draw an immediate conclusion by testing only once. To get the result, you still need to test several times.
Wei Lingyu felt relieved.
The doctor reminded me of my high blood sugar level when I went for a prenatal checkup, and I have been trying hard to control it during that time.
When her husband, brother-in-law and mother-in-law drink porridge, she will also prepare a separate meal for her.
It’s just that due to the flood, I can’t go to the hospital for check-ups anymore, and my diet can’t be as refined as before.
After dinner, Xie Shutian gave Wei Lingyu another blood sugar test. Although it was still a little high, it was still within the normal range.
Xie Shu smiled sweetly and said, "Very good, try to keep it up."
A smile appeared on Wei Lingyu's face.
She looked down and touched her belly, as if she could feel the baby reaching out his little hand at the same time.
Baby, mom is working hard, you have to work hard too. Everyone is looking forward to your arrival.

After the huge waves disappeared, the turbulent water surface gradually returned to calm, but the tranquility in the government hall was gone forever.
Three buildings in a nearby elevator apartment complex collapsed, killing many people and human corpses could be seen on the water.
The residents of the other buildings in the community were frightened. As soon as the water calmed down, they rushed to the nearest government building using various tools.
Men, women, old, young... For a moment, the government building was filled with the sound of people talking.
Someone saw He Junxia and others living upstairs, and took the initiative to come up and chat and say hello.
At present, the attitudes of both sides are still relatively friendly, but when there are more people, their hearts become complicated. Those who arrived first have abundant supplies, while those who arrived later are short of supplies.
It is difficult not to have conflicts in this situation.
He Junxia gathered all his people for a short meeting. Not only him, but others also realized the problem.
Finally, they unanimously decided that everyone would occupy a large office with partitions as their base and not allow outsiders to enter.
They share a common destiny and must unite to resist the covetousness of outsiders.
Everyone tacitly agreed not to go to other floors, never travel alone, and try to maintain superficial harmony with the people who later moved into the government hall.
But there is always a loophole
Adults guard against adults, but children don't guard against children, so conflicts still arise between the two sides.
