Chapter 387 Touched
Shen Yanming took out a set of warm clothes and pants from the space and put them on, then took out a sweater and trousers and put them on, and finally, he put on the work clothes.
Considering the intensity of the upcoming work, Shen Yanming decided to take out a few large meat buns from the space to fill his stomach first. After he was half full, he tucked the quilt corners for Bi Qiaoan and then tiptoed out of the tent.
But what he didn't know was that Bi Qiaoan opened her eyes just after he left. She was awakened by the cold wind the moment the door curtain was opened.
Bi Qiaoan didn't get up either. She waved her hand and released the goose, letting it guard the place while she continued to catch up on her sleep in the warm bed.
Ah, the wind blows and the snow falls, just like winter.
After drinking a bowl of porridge, Shen Yanming went to report to the ruins. But to his surprise, he couldn't find his own team.
It was only by following the messy footprints in the snow that they found Li Gangtie and the others. After replacing one of them, Shen Yanming joined the rescue operation.
Let’s not talk about them for now. Even though this group of people hadn’t slept for a whole night, they were still very energetic. As long as they thought of their brothers buried under the rubble, they had endless energy.
At 8:30 in the morning, Bi Qiaoan was awakened by the quacking of geese. She had just opened her eyes when she heard someone outside the tent shouting, "Qiaoan, are you awake?"
"Hey! Wait a minute!" Hearing that it was Zuo Xiangqun's voice, Bi Qiaoan quickly put on a down jacket over her pajamas, then lifted the door curtain and asked, "You're here so early, what do you want to talk to me about?"
"It's late now. We've all been up and working for hours. But it's early for you. Hehe, it's nothing. I just worried that you were hungry, so I served you a bowl of porridge. Drink it while it's hot."
Bi Qiaoan did not refuse. After taking it, he smiled and said, "Thank you very much. I will pass the bowl over after you finish drinking."
"What are you sending me? This is your bowl! Qiao An, you didn't just wake up and your mind is still confused, right?"
Bi Qiaoan took a look and found that it was indeed her own bowl. She smiled awkwardly, "It really is. If you hadn't called me, I would have probably slept until noon!"
"It's really cold today, so it's good to hide in the quilt to keep warm. If it doesn't work, I'll bring your stove over later so you can warm yourself up."
"Please don't do that. Even if you bring it here, you can't put it in the tent. Are you going to leave it outside and let me roast it alone?" Bi Qiaoan rolled his eyes and smiled.
"Okay, okay, then let's keep it with us. By the way, after you finish drinking, just put the bowl outside the tent, and I will come back to take the bowl away when I bring you lunch at noon. It's snowing outside and the ground is slippery. If you can't come out, just stay inside and be careful not to fall." Zuo Xiangqun reminded patiently.
"I understand. As long as I don't have to worry about anything, I'll just stay in the tent."
"Well, if you want to go to the bathroom, you can stand outside the tent and yell at me. Although I can't go in with you, it's still okay for me to send you to the door. The weather is bad today, so let's be careful and don't be pretentious, ah!"
Bi Qiaoan nodded and smiled. Although she felt that Zuo Xiangqun was a bit nagging, he did take good care of her.
"Okay then. I'll go back first. I guess the shift changer will be back soon."
"Wait a minute, take this back!" Bi Qiaoan bent down and handed all the medicine bags he had left to Zuo Xiangqun. "There are labels on them with clear effects. You can use them as you wish."
"This...you're not going to keep it for yourself?"
"No, I asked my husband yesterday, and he said that this medicine bag can be used to make a big pot of medicine, and it will be more valuable when given to you. Besides, my husband also prepared some common medicines, so we can deal with it if something happens."
Zuo Xiangqun had seen the power of these medicine bags yesterday. They had planned to continue boiling them today, but he didn't expect Bi Qiaoan to give him such a big surprise. He said excitedly, "Thank you, on behalf of the brothers in the escort team, thank you!"
"No, no, no, I can't bear it."
Bi Qiaoan waved his hands quickly, "It's you. This country is so stable because of you. In the face of disasters, you are always the first to rush to the front line. Therefore, the ones who should be thanked should be ordinary people like me who are sheltered under your wings. It is my honor to make a small contribution.
However, I am ashamed because we were not well prepared. We only had a few medicine packs and everyone had to make do with what they had. "
"No, no, no, it's already very good. You're helping someone in need. Also, don't underestimate them. Just these few medicine bags can save a lot of medical resources for the entire camp." Zuo Xiangqun looked at Bi Qiaoan with burning eyes, and the gratitude in his eyes could not be hidden.
Bi Qiaoan smiled guiltily, "Well, I will shamelessly accept your gratitude."
The two chatted for a few more words, and then Zuo Xiangqun left. Looking at his back, Bi Qiaoan seemed to understand Shen Yanming's mood.
It was a feeling of gratitude, but also helplessness. They wanted to lend a helping hand, but were bound by secrecy and dared not act rashly. They watched the guards suffer and work hard, but still contributed to the disaster area. They held the supplies, but could only feel guilty.
Oh, it’s such a psychological torture!
After Zuo Xiangqun left, Bi Qiaoan looked at the still warm porridge with only a grain of rice at the bottom of the bowl and couldn't help but sigh.
She took out a salted egg from the space, peeled it and put it in the bowl, then added two pieces of dried meat. The bowl of tasteless white rice porridge instantly became fragrant. With two buns, Bi Qiaoan was very full.
But she was not in a good mood at all, because she thought that the guards working on the ruins might not have enough to eat.
Alas, if she was facing the disaster victims, she might not have such sympathy, but facing a group of selfless guards, Bi Qiaoan felt really uncomfortable.
Forget it, I should wait for my husband to come back and discuss what to do. Otherwise, as a pregnant woman, I will be powerless to do anything.
At noon, the snow in Suzhou stopped. As the sun came out, the temperature rose rapidly. In less than two hours, the snow on the road melted.
Then there was mud everywhere.
In order to avoid getting mud on his shoes, Bi Qiaoan tried not to leave the tent. However, no matter how much he hid, he still had to go out to the toilet and show up.
I just came out and heard that the guard team sent back several guards today. I don’t know whether they fainted from hunger, fatigue, or heat.
At night, Shen Yanming didn't come back until nearly twelve o'clock. He was holding a sweater and trousers in his left hand and warm clothes in his right hand. The moment he opened the door curtain, he saw Bi Qiaoan leaning on the pillow and staring at him.
