She's also in a quagmire, and Zheng Mingcai is trying his best to get out of it, right?
It's laughable that she was completely unaware of her past life.
"You know why I hit you. Don't waste your breath on me, get out of here."
A series of banging sounds filled the air as Grandma used her simple, unadorned broomstick as she launched an indiscriminate attack on her children and grandchildren.
"Okay, okay, okay, let's go out, let's go out. Don't be angry, don't be angry, anger is bad for your health. Our daughter has the energy, let her help her brothers."
The adoptive father finally spoke up. He was a man of few words and little ability. He either listened to his mother or his wife and usually tried to smooth things over.
Before leaving, she didn't forget to try her best to help her two sons.
With a loud slam of the door, the world finally became quiet.
"Grandma, Grandma?"
Grandma said irritably:
"What are you yelling about? One phone call from you has shortened my lifespan by several years. You silly girl, you know they're all bad, yet you still go out of your way to make them sell themselves. Tell me what you're doing..."
Grandma was so disappointed in her granddaughter that she pointed at her forehead with her finger. If her granddaughter were there, she would poke a hole in her forehead to teach her a lesson.
Grandma's tone was harsh, but every word she uttered showed her concern for her.
Zuo Ling's eyes were red-rimmed. At least her grandmother cared about her, and she wasn't alone.
“Grandma, I said that earlier because I didn’t want my second brother to build a new house. The meteorologists said that there might be extremely cold weather next year. We should use the money for building a new house to stock up on more food, buy some warm clothes, and do some insulation work on the old house. We should also stock up on more grain, oil, firewood and other necessities.”
"Oh? Really? Is it that serious?" Grandma asked, half believing it.
She raised her granddaughter herself, and knew her temperament and personality perfectly well. She would never lie to her on important matters.
"Grandma, I'm only telling you this. Don't tell them. They won't believe me anyway. The meteorological bureau doesn't allow it to be spread, for fear of causing panic."
Of all the people in the world who are kind to her, only her grandmother remains. Although she knows that her grandmother is unlikely to survive the end of the world, she still hopes that her grandmother will be vigilant and make some preparations.
She wanted to bring her grandmother with her, firstly because her grandmother had three sons and two daughters, and she knew how difficult it was for her to live outside, so she couldn't let her be a burden on her grandchildren.
Secondly, if the Ding family's problems are not resolved, they will become a hidden danger sooner or later, and the risk is even greater for Grandma if she stays with her.
"Girl, is this really true? Why do I feel so uneasy?"
Zuo Ling's tone was very serious, and Grandma finally realized the seriousness of the matter.
"Grandma, I won't lie to you. Later, I'll transfer some money to your card. Don't give it to anyone else. Use it to stock up on supplies—food, drinks, firewood, oil, salt, and so on. Stock up on warm clothes and shoes too. Also, prepare plenty of straw, bean stalks, and firewood that you can burn..."
The more Grandma listened, the more flustered she became, and the more she believed it.
"Girl, is it really that serious?"
She confirmed it again.
“Okay, Grandma, I’m transferring 100,000 yuan to you. Tell the family it’s a customer’s deposit. The grain will be delivered next February. Don’t sell any of the grain at home. By then, when the extreme cold arrives, everyone will know.”
In my previous life, on the fifth day of the Lunar New Year, extreme cold descended.
She remembered it clearly: February 5, 2031.
In one night, millions of lives were lost.
