After she died and opened her eyes again, Qiao Qingqing stared at the familiar decoration in front of her for a long time. She hadn't dreamed of her home for a long time. Her home was taken away during the second flood. She wandered outside alone, looking for food in the dirty flood. She got sick after eating unclean food. She thought she could only wait to die, but she was lucky to be rescued by the soldiers. So she continued to endure and live. Later, there was a big earthquake. Her home must have been reduced to ruins in the earthquake. She died on the road to escape after the earthquake. She didn't think about anything before she died. The last thing she saw was the dim sky with layers of dark clouds.
She actually dreamed of such a clear home before the end of the world, clean and tidy, with the scent of jasmine in the air. Qiao Qingqing didn't want to wake up, this dream was too beautiful. Until a familiar yet unfamiliar music sounded, waking her up from the sadness of beautiful memories.
Sitting up and looking around, Qiao Qingqing reached for the cell phone on the bedside table and the caller ID showed "Wenwen".
Wenwen, also a good friend Yuan Xiaowen whom she hadn’t seen for many years. She could receive calls from friends in her dreams. God treated her well. Qiao Qingqing pressed the answer button and heard her bestie’s lively and cheerful voice from the other side: “Qingqing, are you up? I’ll pick you up. We have a big project today and we have to go shopping all day! Are you up? What do you want for breakfast?…”
Qiao Qingqing's heart was shocked. This conversation was so familiar. Her throat tightened: "I, you, you are pregnant?"
"...Ahhh Qingqing, how did you know that? I haven't told you how you knew that yet!"
"Isn't it only been a month?"
"Oh my god! Qingqing, how did you know? I went to the hospital for a blood test to confirm it. I only told my husband. He doesn't know you, so he shouldn't have told you. How did you know?"
Qiao Qingqing breathed rapidly: "You, wait a moment."
She hung up the phone, jumped out of bed and ran out of the room. She opened the door and went to the balcony, leaning on the balcony with both hands and looking down. This was a boutique community 20 years ago. There were complete living facilities nearby, including a fitness plaza and a kindergarten. After crossing the road in front, there was a farmer's market and a supermarket. Every morning, there were cars and people coming and going. When she looked down, she saw a bus just leaving from the opposite platform. A white-collar worker biting a bun quickly chased after it: "Wait for me! I haven't gotten on the bus yet!"
The old grandmother who was taking her grandson to kindergarten held the child's hand and walked slowly across the zebra crossing.
Three children, about seven or eight years old, ran out of the neighborhood laughing and playing, and the girl's twin ponytails swung in a joyful arc.
Qiao Qingqing's pupils constricted. She looked down at her hands. She was holding the balcony railing tightly. It was cold to the touch, and when she clenched it tightly, she could feel a real pain in her hands.
She slapped herself hard and opened her mouth to scream, but her voice was stuck in her throat. She couldn't utter a word. She could only hold on to the railing tightly, tears streaming down her face.
She couldn't believe that she was going back to the past. This was the past, not the future!
All that dark and painful past has not happened yet.
Remembering something, she immediately made a phone call.
"Hey Qingqing, shouldn't you be shopping with Xiaowen now? Why don't you call me?"
It was a familiar voice, and the tone and pace were exactly the same as in her memory. Qiao Qingqing was crying, her face full of sadness. Listening to her husband's intimate inquiries on the other end of the phone, she took a deep breath and said calmly: "Shao Shengan, ask for leave immediately and go home. Can't ask for leave? Then tell your boss that your wife is going to jump off the building!" Then she hung up the phone, squatted down and burst into tears.
After crying for a few times, Qiao Qingqing laughed again, crying while laughing, stood up, took a video and sent it over.
After sending the video, Qiao Qingqing called her mother again: "Mom, I miss you so much, can you come and see me tomorrow?"
Tomorrow in her previous life, her mother would come to Huacheng to see her, and she wanted to make sure nothing would change.
"Mom misses you too. I want to go there tomorrow. Your uncle gave me a box of seafood. I can't eat it all. I'll send it to you tomorrow. Where's Sheng An? Is he back from his business trip?"
Qiao Qingqing suppressed her emotions and said with a smile: "He will be back, and we will eat seafood together then. Tell me when you get off the bus tomorrow, and I will pick you up."
"No, I'll take the bus directly to the gate of the community, so I don't need you to send me there. Hey, a guest is coming, mom is hanging up."
"good."
After Qiao Qingqing accepted the fact that she was reborn, the pain that had been weighing on her heart for ten years finally eased a little. Her lover and her relatives were still alive at this time!
She was walking around in the living room when her cell phone rang again. It was her best friend Yuan Xiaowen.
Answering the phone with guilt, Qiao Qingqing said that she couldn't go because of something urgent: "The water pipe at home burst, and I have to ask someone to fix it. Oh, by the way, I just heard that there is a once-in-a-century typhoon coming, so I have to buy some food to store at home. You can buy some too."
"There's no typhoon. The weather forecast didn't mention it. Oh Qingqing, why are you afraid of a typhoon? We're not at the beach here, so we don't have to be afraid. Then you fix the water pipe first, and Mengmeng and I will go buy some."
Just after the call ended, her husband Shao Shengan called in. Qiao Qingqing breathed a sigh of relief when he said the plane ticket had been booked. He threatened her again before hanging up. When she opened the chat software, she saw the screenshot of the plane ticket.
"That's enough. Sheng An will go home tonight and mom will be home tomorrow." Qiao Qingqing smiled with tears in her eyes.
The two most important people will come back to her. Qiao Qingqing calmed down completely. She had to hurry up and make preparations.
She spent ten years in the apocalypse. Those ten years were very difficult. She went through several desperate situations. Every time she thought she was going to die and wanted to give up. But every time she would think of her husband and her mother, and then grit her teeth and continue to live.
Even if you don't live like a human being, you have to live on.
Returning to ten years ago, before the disaster, was this God's reward for her devout prayers for countless days and nights during those ten years?
Thinking of this, Qiao Qingqing suddenly had an epiphany. She concentrated, closed her eyes, and saw her own space.
At this moment, she entered a mysterious feeling and heard the space "talking". It told her that it had fulfilled her wish and let her be reborn ten years ago, before all the tragedies began. From then on, the cause and effect between it and her lineage was settled, and the fate ended. After she died, it would leave completely.
She suddenly opened her eyes, and the feeling disappeared instantly, but the will of space was firmly engraved in her mind.
"Thank you, thank you for sending me back and for continuing to help me." Qiao Qingqing thanked him sincerely. "You like gold and jade, right? I will find a lot of them for you when I have the chance, so that you can become bigger."
[good]
This simple response made Qiao Qingqing very happy. Neither her grandmother nor her mother had ever spoken to Kongjian, but Kongjian was willing to communicate with her twice.
"I will definitely do it, don't worry." Qiao Qingqing promised.
The space is still there, and Qiao Qingqing is more confident about the future. She doesn't dare to say that she can live until the end of the world, but at least this time she can gather her family around her in advance. They can face all difficulties together. Even if they die, the family will die together.
She didn't want to live alone anymore, she wanted to die together.
She is a person who takes action very quickly, and after calming down she starts making arrangements.
First, she searched the Internet for reliable local floor heating installation companies in Huacheng. After asking for prices from several parties, she placed an order. After inquiring, she learned that the other company could also do indoor insulation wall business, so she added the rock wool strip insulation business and agreed to have the master come to her house immediately.
She then consulted an old classmate about solar generators, and the old classmate helped her make the connection and introduced his cousin's company to her, and arranged for them to come and install them immediately.
She asked for expedited delivery of both orders. The master didn't have time? Then she could pay more, no matter how much, and the deal was settled smoothly.
Finally, she asked the master who had decorated her mother's flower shop to seal the balcony and terrace. The master said that he had not finished the work at hand and had to wait for another ten days. She couldn't wait any longer, so the master said he would introduce her to a colleague. Qiao Qingqing talked to the man about her needs. Although the other party felt a little strange, he still agreed and came to measure the size in the afternoon.
"The five-layer steel-hardened glass has to be custom-made. Measure the dimensions first, and then we'll install it for you after the factory delivers the glass."
"Okay, then come over this afternoon to measure it. I'll be at home."
After making these three arrangements, Qiao Qingqing went online to shop. In her previous life, she was not well prepared. She had space but not enough supplies. In the days of lack of clothing, food and medicine, Qiao Qingqing just endured every time she was sick, even if she had an extra box of antipyretic medicine or an extra quilt.
Thinking of the continuous natural disasters that swept the world in her previous life, Qiao Qingqing couldn't help but feel a little disgusted and frightened.
But what is coming will come, and she will definitely be prepared!
