Chapter 46 Please take us in
Just after taking a shower, she received an invitation from Su Cheng, asking her and Ji Yanmo to have dinner at his house. He would cook for her himself. Lu Xingtang was really too tired to lift her hands. She had planned to eat the delicacies stored in the space. Now that someone was cooking, she naturally wanted it more than she could, so she took a bag of bean sprouts and oyster mushrooms to Su Cheng's house.
Su Cheng was surprised when he saw the bean sprouts and oyster mushrooms in Lu Xingtang's hand: "Wow, there are bean sprouts and oyster mushrooms."
After handing it to Su Cheng, Lu Xingtang said, "I grew the bean sprouts myself, and they taste just as good as the ones sold outside. I bought the oyster mushrooms online a while ago, and I spent some time cultivating them."
After a long time in the kitchen, the two of them prepared dinner: stewed potatoes with beef, stir-fried beef, scrambled eggs with bean sprouts, stir-fried oyster mushrooms, kimchi with bacon and sausage, and hot and sour shredded potatoes. There was also a pot of rice. With the battery, they could use the rice cooker. The aroma of the rice made Lu Xingtang feel like he had returned to the pre-apocalyptic era.
Su Cheng also brought out a bottle of red wine, one for each of them. Su Hao drank the old man's milk powder. The four of them raised their glasses and said, "I hope the natural disaster will end soon."
"all the best!"
"Be safe and sound!" Actually, what I wanted to say was live well, but it was a bit too unpleasant so I changed it to "be safe and sound."
"Don't cause trouble for Cheng Cheng!" Su Hao looked at Su Cheng and said apologetically.
Su Cheng was helpless: "Dad, you are my dad, there is no such thing as causing trouble, it is my duty to take care of you!"
The meal was very satisfying. After the meal, Lu Xingtang took Su Hao's pulse and said, "Don't worry, Su Cheng. Grandpa Su is in good health."
What Su Cheng was most worried about was Su Hao's health, so he asked Lu Xingtang, a half-baked doctor, to take his pulse.
After deciding to give up, Lu Xingtang not only went to the space to feed the pigs, dogs, and cats every day, but also took out the incubator. She had stockpiled a lot of chicken eggs, duck eggs, and goose eggs, which would last for a long time, but she wanted to make the space more lively, so she took 100 fertilized chicken eggs, 100 fertilized duck eggs, and 100 fertilized goose eggs and soaked them in diluted potassium permanganate for three days, and incubated them at a constant temperature of 37.8°.
Lu Xingtang took out his cell phone and added a schedule reminder, saying that the eggs could only be put into the incubator for three days.
The next day, after Lu Xingtang finished training, he took out the fish he brought back from the reservoir and processed them. Everyone in the entire apartment building saw them carrying supplies back in the past few days. Everyone knew that they had sufficient supplies on the 19th floor, so Lu Xingtang cooked fish openly and put all the fish in the space so that they could eat them anytime and anywhere.
While the fish was being processed, the gas stove in the kitchen started working.
Lu Xingtang cooked a large pot of beef bones and a large pot of beef. The stove in the space villa was also working, and all the gas stoves were turned on for use, but he also kept some fresh beef to be fried or grilled later.
When Lu Xingtang was processing the fish, he heard a noisy noise. After listening carefully, he found that everyone who had gone to the shelter had returned in kayaks, speedboats, or large wooden tubs.
They wanted to continue camping in the hallways and staircases, but the original residents disagreed. After finally sending them away, they had only two days of comfortable living when they were back to being noisy. They didn't have enough to eat or sleep, and they had to constantly be on guard against theft. Who wouldn't be terrified? And they ate, drank, defecated, and urinated in the hallways and staircases!
The original residents disagreed, and the people who moved back from the shelter insisted on living in the corridor, so the two sides started arguing.
After listening for a while, Lu Xingtang took out her Bluetooth headphones and put them on, listening to the songs she wrote for famous musicians before the end of the world. Her hands and mind were busy killing fish and cooking meat.
But less than ten minutes later, the security door on the 19th floor was slammed. Lu Xingtang took off her apron and sleeves, took a nail gun and went out.
As she opened the door, Ji Yanmo opened the door opposite her as well: "Let's go together!"
As soon as they reached the stairs, Su Cheng and the 1904 Wu Jin family of four also came out, all holding weapons and knives. The moment Lu Xingtang opened the door, Ji Yanmo stood at the door with a ferocious look and a gun in his hand, scaring the person who knocked on the door so much that he almost wet his pants.
The people knocking on the door were residents of 403, 602, 804, and 301. They all came. They knew that everyone on the 19th floor was evil, but they were really forced into a corner. They also knew that the 19th floor might not accept them. So they all knelt down and kowtowed to everyone on the 19th floor: "Please accept us to live on the 19th floor! We can live in your house, just occupy the corridor, the stairs, and the rooftop door. We promise not to disturb you."
"Lu Xingtang, I know you're a doctor who hasn't even finished his apprenticeship yet. You must have a compassionate heart. We adults can live anywhere, but not children! Look, my child is only five years old, pale and thin, dirty, and has a high fever. Please, please let us live on the 19th floor, okay?"
"Officer Su, you're a former police officer, dedicated to serving the country and the people. Please have some mercy on us. We can't afford to stay in the shelter. Although we have food every day, we're never full. There are too many people, it's messy and smelly, and robberies and thefts happen all the time. We really can't stand it. Please take us in! We promise not to cause you any trouble, and we won't occupy your home!"
"Wu Jin, we've been neighbors for many years. You know what kind of people we are. Please help us!"
"Hey, little brother, I know you're the only one living in 1902. I can give you money. If you can let me stay at your house, I'll pay you whatever the price is! Please!"
Lu Xingtang sneered, "You've been away from the community for two days, so you think we've forgotten how you teamed up to deal with us on the 19th floor? You want us to take you in? Dream on!"
"Get out!" Ji Yanmo was more direct. He pulled the trigger and shot one of the men in the thigh: "If you don't leave, I'll kill you!"
The four residents were so frightened that they retreated repeatedly, but they were still unwilling to give in. "Other apartment buildings have building managers, but ours doesn't. How about you, the building manager on the 19th floor? Lead our entire apartment building to survive the natural disaster. No matter what you tell us to do, we will do whatever you tell us to do!"
Oh!
These guys are really powerful. They must have wanted to use the 19th floor to survive for a long time.
"It's no use begging us on the 19th floor. We on the 19th floor won't help anyone downstairs. Who lives and who dies depends on their own abilities. If you don't have the ability, don't blame us for being cold-hearted!" Lu Xingtang looked at them coldly. "We on the 19th floor won't accept anyone as the building manager of this unit building. Whoever you choose to be the building manager has nothing to do with us on the 19th floor! If you keep making trouble, all of you will die!"
Su Cheng continued, "No matter who you nominate as building manager, don't try to take advantage of us 19. If you have any difficulties, go to the building manager. If the building manager you nominate can't even do this, he doesn't deserve to be the building manager."
The four families immediately understood that the 19th floor would not care about them, but they could join others to elect a building manager. With a building manager, they would not be afraid of having no place to live.
Seeing the four families withdraw their troops and go home, Lu Xingtang and the others also went back. However, seeing the security door that had been smashed earlier, Ji Yanmo said, "Su Cheng, let's go out for a while and find a door to replace this broken one!"
"Okay!" Soon, the two of them went out.
