After that, Haishi would be hit by an earthquake every two or three days.
At first, everyone was quite panicked and would run outside the building to hide. But as time went on, they lost that enthusiasm.
It's tiring and cold. Every time I come back, it takes me most of the day to warm up. People with slightly weaker constitutions will catch a cold and fever.
In order to reduce the burden on the base hospital, everyone unanimously decided to stay at home.
Of course, the most important thing is that with so many "wolves" coming, they no longer care.
Anyway, the buildings in area A are sturdy, while areas B, C, and D are just small bungalows. Even if they collapse, no one will be killed. At worst, they can be rebuilt.
When An'an and Nuan'nuan jumped out of the window for the first time, they terrified the substitute teacher. The other students also screamed.
But when the teachers and classmates saw that the two of them rushed outside as fast as they could, their eyes lit up.
They hurriedly called to the students who hadn't run out yet to jump out of the window.
Although the window is more than a meter above the ground, compared to the crowded interior, jumping out of the window to squat down doesn't seem like a big deal.
In this way, the entire classroom was quickly evacuated.
From then on, whenever there was an earthquake, the students on the first floor were always the fastest to run away.
Moreover, because they did not occupy the first-floor passage, the evacuation speed of the second and third floors was much faster than before.
However, like everyone else, after about a week of this, they became immune to earthquakes.
Let it move as it pleases, I will remain steadfast as a mountain.
October arrived in the blink of an eye, and the weather was getting colder and colder. This year's harvest was poor, and everyone was having a hard time.
Although the official in charge of the alliance assured everyone that relief food would be distributed, everyone voluntarily reduced their food intake.
They saved at least a third of it to hide, just in case the base ran out of food and they went hungry.
What they didn't know was that when that day came, whoever had grain in their hands would be the enemy of the people, and the grain would be stolen before they could even eat it.
Shen Yanming and Bi Qiaoan were worried about the impact on the two women who had just given birth, so they found a time to visit them.
She brought Zeng Yiming twenty kilograms of millet and two cans of unpackaged milk powder. Ding Xunye was deeply moved and almost cried while hugging Bi Qiaoan's arm.
Shen Yanming whispered to them, "Don't leave the food out, eat it as soon as possible. And whatever you do, don't tell anyone that you two have food."
They knew how to play the poor card. Zeng Yiming nodded with tears in his eyes, "Don't worry, I promise to keep it a secret." The kind of secret you won't even tell your parents.
Xiao Yezi also raised her hand and swore that she hadn't asked the couple where the things came from.
After everyone left, she held her three-month-old baby and whispered, "Little Swallow, you're so lucky. Mommy thought you were starving and skin and bones, but then your uncle and aunt brought you some food. Little Swallow, you have to grow up quickly!"
Zeng Yiming listened to Ding Xunye and his daughter's chatter and smiled. He was very content; his life was already much better than he had imagined.
The couple had originally planned to return to Area A to find Qin Yiren, but suddenly remembered Song Wenuan. They hadn't seen her in a long time and wondered how she was doing.
After thinking about it, I went to the Wei family's house. It wasn't far from the Zeng family's house, only about a ten-minute walk away.
When Song Wenwen knocked on the door, she was stunned.
I hadn't seen Shen Yanming and Bi Qiaoan for a long time, and I was surprised to find that they looked as healthy as ever. It was I, on the other hand, who looked much more haggard.
"Why are you here? Please come in!" Song Wenuan said, but then coughed.
"What's wrong? Did you catch a cold?" Bi Qiaoan asked.
Song Wenwen nodded: "Yeah, a little." She smiled: "What brings you here today?"
"It's getting cold, and I was worried about you, so I came to check on you," Bi Qiaoan said without hiding anything.
A smile bloomed on Song Wennuan's face as she nodded and said, "I'm fine." Then she invited the person to sit down.
Wei Jiahe quickly poured two cups of hot water and brought them over, while Wei Liang also took out the only sweet potatoes in the house to serve the guests.
Niu Niu even threw herself into Bi Qiaoan's arms and wouldn't move.
"Didn't they go to school?" Bi Qiaoan asked.
Song Wenwen felt a little embarrassed, but Wei Liang spoke up: "Area A is too far from here, and it's freezing cold. It takes two or three hours to go back and forth every day. It's too much for the child. We discussed it and decided to teach him at home. Anyway, it's cold now, and there's nothing much to do outside."
Bi Qiaoan thought about it and agreed, so she didn't say anything.
Shen Yanming felt this was inappropriate, so he suggested to the two of them: "You can enroll your child in a school and teach them at home. Once the child's level is sufficient, they can take the promotion exam. This way, they can obtain a qualification recognized by the alliance, which will benefit the child in the future."
"Will this work?" Wei Liang understood immediately, but wasn't quite sure if it was possible to do it this way.
"You can go ask, it won't hurt to ask anyway," Shen Yanming said with a smile.
Wei Liang nodded: "Then I'll go back to Area A with you guys in a bit."
Song Wennuan was also somewhat tempted. She asked Bi Qiaoan, "An'an and Nuannuan have gone to school. What grade are they in now?"
Bi Qiaoan's eyes darted around, and she said with a smile, "First year." She didn't add junior high, afraid of embarrassing her old classmates.
Song Wenwen was incredibly envious and kept praising them: "That's so great! They're even younger than my Niu Niu, aren't they? They're really amazing!"
Bi Qiaoan felt a little guilty, but she patted Niu Niu's head and praised, "Your and Wei Liang's genes are right here, how could Niu Niu be bad? Just wait and see, she'll graduate from elementary school in no time. Don't you think so, Niu Niu?"
Niu Niu nodded her little head and said smugly, "Yes, Mom, I'm very smart. I've learned all the things you taught me."
"See, right? Take the child to take the exam. Maybe Niu Niu's level is already at the second or third grade level."
Song Wenwen laughed when she heard this. She said with a smile, "How could I not know how good she is? She's only a little better than a kindergartener."
Niu Niu pouted, and Song Wen Nuan tapped her little nose: "What, you're not convinced? If you're not convinced, then try harder, and maybe you can become classmates with An An and Nuan Nuan."
Niu Niu snorted and said arrogantly, "Mom, just you wait and see!"
Bi Qiaoan laughed and chimed in, "Yes, let your mother see how excellent our Niu Niu is."
After saying that, she whispered to Song Wenwen, "She seems much more lively than the last time I saw her."
Song Wenwen nodded: "Jiahe has changed for the better now. She often plays with Niu Niu, and her personality is becoming more and more cheerful."
Bi Qiaoan turned to look at Wei Jiahe, who seemed a little uneasy, and smiled: "You've finally made it through."
"Well, thankfully it was a good result."
Wei Liang heard the two women talking and the corners of his mouth unconsciously turned up.
Yes, they've made it through the tough times. No matter what happens outside, their family has never argued again.
Wei Liang's gaze softened considerably, and he turned to continue discussing education with Shen Yanming.
It wasn't until it was getting late that the couple realized it was time to go home.
Song Wenwen was reluctant to part, feeling that she hadn't had such a pleasant chat with someone in a long time.
Even Wei Liang felt that talking to Shen Yanming was very pleasant, and he felt as if he had met a kindred spirit too late.
