So, the two of them spent five days making dumplings. Those who made dumplings

at 1801 each contributed half of the ingredients. In order to prevent the dough and stuffing from freezing, the charcoal fire burned very vigorously.

1801 lit the charcoal fire, and Doudou also helped. Jiang Ning contributed several kilograms of leeks, cabbage and celery.

Huo Yishen chopped the stuffing, cut the greens without telling Doudou, put the chopped vegetables in the meat stuffing, and mixed them with soy sauce.

Doudou was only six years old, a little smart but didn't know everything, and he managed to get away with it.

Each family was given 2,000 dumplings, which could be eaten for a long time.

Jiang Ning's portion was kept fresh in the air conditioner, and Huo Yishen's portion was frozen on the balcony for an hour. When he brought it back, it was harder than a stone.

No need to put it in the refrigerator, just store it in the box and take it out when you want to eat it.

Jiang Ning wanted to make some meat buns to store, but it was difficult for the flour to ferment in this weather, so he gave up the idea. He

repeated his life every day, reading, playing with the dog, weeding, hoeing the ground, exercising, and living a monotonous and replicable life.

After getting to know him for a long time, Jiang Ning found that Huo Yishen was not only good at martial arts, but also a boy who loved reading and learning.

He was actually reading a book about auto repair, and he was reading it with relish.

Jiang Ning was a good driver, but he knew almost nothing about auto repair. She couldn't help but ask curiously, "Why do you read this book?"

In fact, she felt sorry for his tank. Even if it wasn't washed away, it was soaked in water for several months, and then it was exposed to extremely cold weather, and the material properties deteriorated rapidly, almost equivalent to scrapping. It was a pity.

When the flood receded, all the cars were scrapped. It would be difficult to get another car.

"Just take a look and kill time."

Jiang Ning didn't believe it. People with military and police backgrounds were not casual.

The days were slow, but also fast.

There was no fat, but the vest line was finally summoned. It was really worth it for her to persist in sparring with Huo Yishen every day.

In the past six months, her physical fitness has improved visibly, and she doesn't feel tired or sick even when she turns the ground and pulls weeds with her mind. After

a month, the potato seedlings have grown lush and green.

Doudou is craving for greens, "Sister, can I eat the seedlings?"

"No." Jiang Ning took the opportunity to give the two a science lesson, "Potato seedlings contain solanine. Eating too much will make you dizzy and vomit, and in severe cases, you will die."

Doudou was curious, "What is solanine?"

"It's poison, it can kill people." Jiang Ning thought about explaining it to her, but she couldn't understand it, so she reminded her, "Remember, don't eat it."

"Doudou, don't die, stay with your brother and sister and Coke."

After scaring the two, Jiang Ning left with satisfaction, thinking that Zheng Weili and the other two had been working for a month, and there was no news during this period, and she didn't know how they were doing. It should be time for the holiday soon.

I was half asleep in the morning when there were knocks on the door.

Kele looked fierce and kept pulling at the door.

Jiang Ning opened the inner door, and the fierce dog suddenly wagged its tail.

As soon as the outer door opened, it quickly went out.

Lu Yu's voice came, "Kele, did you miss us?"

The three of them returned as promised, carrying bedding and clothes for change.

I haven't seen them for a month, and I feel that they have changed a lot.

Lu Yu and Zhang Chao are laughing and joking, but they are more mature and rough than before.

The temperature has dropped to minus sixty. My face is tightly wrapped, and my eyes are full of fatigue and bloodshot.

I work until twelve o'clock in the evening. I was afraid of being robbed after receiving the food, so I slept in the dormitory for three hours. I left for home after the peak robbery time on the food distribution day.

It was far away, and it took seven hours to get home.

"You go back first, I'm boiling hot water, I'll bring you a kettle later."

After closing the door, brushing teeth and washing face, Jiang Ning took out the kettle of hot water and brought it to 1803. Seeing that they were too tired to lift their feet, she also cooked a pot of noodles.

After finishing a pot of steaming noodles, Zhang Chao's stiff body finally warmed up. "Aning's cooking skills are still good. We ate very badly in the cafeteria, without even a little meat."

"How was your work?"

Zhang Chao stretched out his bandaged hand, "I almost lost my life."

Eight kilograms of food, it's really not easy to earn.

Zhang Chao was fine. After all, he had been out in society and knew that life was hard and difficult, so he was mentally prepared for this job.

But Lu Yu was different. He had lived for twenty years, and this was the first time he worked honestly to earn a living.

If he hadn't been lucky enough to be assigned to the same group as Zhang Chao, he would have almost collapsed.

The three of them were all on night shift, but Zheng Weili was assigned to a different group, so the two of them could only bite the bullet and stick together to survive.

It was okay during the day, as crimes were not so rampant and people were cautious.

At night, it was dark and people would suddenly jump out from nowhere, snatching bags, stealing food, stealing money and clothes.

On the third day of work, the two chased a robber and Lu Yu was caught off guard and stabbed.

If he hadn't worn a color steel protective suit in advance, his arm might have been broken.

Danger is everywhere, especially on the days when each unit issues rations, which is really terrifying.

Some careless people, relying on their big and strong bodies, are not afraid of danger. They carry rations and leave carelessly. They are robbed by motorcycle gangs just a few steps away from the unit. They are dragged onto the ice and dragged for dozens of meters.

It's just that the ice is slippery. If it was on the concrete road, people would be dragged to death.

"My rations, my rations!"

The tall and strong man cried like a child, and his tears froze immediately.

Being a security patrol is really risking your life.

Of course, there are unexpected incomes from doing this job.

As long as you don't go too far, the higher-ups will turn a blind eye. After all, the danger is there.

Zhang Chao opened the quilt, revealing cigarettes, matches, gold chains, canned food, and several kilograms of food.

Lu Yu and Zheng Weili also had some, and with the food they were given, they had a good harvest this month.

All the unexpected wealth belonged to the criminals.

When they were committing crimes and encountered security patrols, they would run away if they couldn't beat them, and throw things to lure the patrol team to pick them up so that they could have a chance to escape. Some of the things were found after they were captured.

If there are victims at the scene, the items will be returned to the victims.

As for those without owners, they will be divided up tacitly.

The three newcomers had no experience and handed over their items honestly. Later, they got it right after being enlightened by their seniors. At first,

they couldn't get over it, but later they found that people around them were doing the same, so they gradually started to think about it.

There is no way, this job is too dangerous, and no one would risk their life if there is no benefit.

This is how survival works, cats have their ways, dogs have their ways, there is nothing to criticize.

Jiang Ning asked Zhang Chao, "What happened to your hand?"

"I dodged quickly, otherwise the tendons in my hand would be cut off." His

physical fitness has improved rapidly in the past six months, and he reacts quickly to frequent beatings. If he had delayed, he would not have been able to avoid it.

Fortunately, he brought medicine with him and bandaged the wound in time, otherwise the few kilograms of food he earned would not be enough to pay for the medical expenses.

Jiang Ning checked him and found that the wound was not infected and had begun to scab over. "It's so dangerous, do you still want to continue working?"
