Chapter 283: Post-earthquake



Yu Sui said this sincerely.

Defending the country is the soldier's duty. I think after the earthquake, the people's soldiers will definitely go to support. Xia Linsheng's military district is not too far from the epicenter, so maybe they are needed. Why is she stopping the man?

Xia Linsheng was moved.

A wife in wedlock is better than other sisters-in-law and more sensible than other family members.

He reached out and touched Yu Sui's face. His fingers caressed her with affection, but the next moment, he saluted and turned and ran away.

Yu Sui was also not idle. She turned around and asked a soldier with a watch: "Comrade, what time is it now?"

The soldier said, "Three forty-five, sister-in-law."

Yu Sui looked towards Tangshan with a heavy heart.

It was three forty-five. It had been almost three minutes since she and Xia Linsheng escaped.

The tremors here are still so strong, the epicenter must be shaking the earth. I wonder if those people in Wutang Mountain believed the "rumors" and slept outside?

With this in mind, Yu Sui kept pacing around, feeling uneasy.

But soon, everyone felt the shock again.

It's an aftershock.

The aftershock was slightly smaller than the previous large shaking, but it still lasted for at least half a minute.

The people on the playground knew that they were in the open air and would not be in danger, but some female comrades still stood up in fear.

Yu Sui heard Lili's voice and looked in the direction of the voice. She saw a slightly fat person hugging her. It looked like Han Duomi, and he was standing beside her carrying a few big bags.

Just from this dark image, Yu Sui could basically conclude that the relationship between Lili and Han Duomi had not recovered, otherwise at this time, she should be leaning in Han Duomi's arms instead of her mother's arms.

It seems that Han Duomi will have to bear even more psychological pressure.

After this earthquake, everyone standing on the playground experienced three or four aftershocks of varying sizes, each one weaker than the last.

Even so, everyone started discussing: "Where was the epicenter of this earthquake? It would be best if it was in the sea. Otherwise, the aftershocks are so strong, the epicenter would probably collapse all the houses."

"That's right. The first time it hit, I couldn't even stand steadily. The second time, I felt terribly dizzy."

"Oh, it would be dangerous if ordinary people lived in densely populated areas."

Gradually, everyone fell silent.

They were all soldiers or their families, and they had much more to consider than ordinary people. Soon, several of them began to take the initiative to go to the regiment headquarters to find the leaders to inquire about the next work arrangements.

Once someone started it, it seemed that if others didn't go, they were not conscious enough, so everyone left.

Just then, Yu Sui saw some disputes happening on Lili's side.

First, Han Duomi came with two large bags and approached Lili, who was leaning in Sister Yuan's arms, and said something.

Lili pushed Han Duomi hard and said in a low voice, "You are always like this. If you insist on taking credit, then go ahead!"

Han Duomi staggered because he was holding something in his hand. He stood there for three minutes without moving. Finally, he suddenly put the thing on the ground, turned around and ran away.

Lili buried her head in her mother's arms and didn't look back.

Yu Sui sighed heavily and wrapped her head with the bed sheet left by Xia Linsheng - don't see these.

Gradually, only women and children were left on the playground.

Most of the children were unaware of sadness. They began to play and chatter happily on the playground, and the sky gradually brightened.

When the morning light began to shine on everyone, some people began to ask, "Should we go back to the house?"

This kind of question was asked many times, and finally everyone focused their attention on Sister Yuan.

Family camps are generally divided according to the men's positions.

Sister Yuan is a member of the regiment commander's family, and she is also regarded as the leader of the family members.

Sister Yuan glanced at the several large bags on the ground and said, "I think it's not shaking anymore. Everyone should go back. I still have some things here. Can someone carry them for me?"

Immediately, several female comrades came over to help: "I'll do it, I'll do it, Qian, Sister Yuan, I'll take you back."

The crowd just dispersed.

Yu Sui also went back wrapped in a bed sheet.

This time, she didn't just sleep, but started making pastries seriously and also prepared to make dried meat.

Because Xia Linsheng might come back at any time, Yu Sui didn't dare to buy an oven or anything, so she just took an iron skewer and roasted it on her own coal stove.

Because she had a premonition that Xia Linsheng would go to the disaster area to provide support.

The content she had read before about the Tangshan earthquake all said that there were serious house collapses. In such a situation, someone would definitely be needed to help with the cleanup. For such a major disaster, soldiers must be the ones to go.

Yu Sui makes rice into rice crust, rolls it in a dipping sauce made from salted egg yolks, and then dries it to create rice crust with egg yolk flavor. The dried meat is also baked softer, so such food is more suitable for carrying.

And water.

After an earthquake, many water sources may be polluted due to changes in river flows, the collapse of houses, etc., so filtering containers are needed.

After much deliberation, Yu Sui decided to buy an ecological water purification machine in the space, removed the outer shell and left only the core inside. Then, according to the structure inside the machine, he purchased a bunch of things with similar structures and drew a detailed filtration process himself.

As for items like Band-Aids, they would attract too much attention if bought from the space, so Yu Sui could only use a method similar to that used to modify a water purifier. She would buy a little first, and then buy a bunch of raw materials to modify them into something that anyone could make.

By the time she had packed up all these things, a whole day had passed. At about four o'clock in the afternoon, Xia Linsheng came back.

As soon as he entered the room, he picked up the enamel jug of cold water on the table and drank it in one gulp. Then he wiped the corner of his mouth and said:

"Wife, I have to leave. We've been ordered to support the disaster area. There was a major earthquake in Tangshan. We don't know the exact situation yet. Communications and transportation are all down. We only know that the buildings there have collapsed severely. However, we provided relief to earthquake victims in the province last year and have some experience. So, our military region is dispatching several battalions there, and I'll be leading the team. We have to leave... immediately."

When he spoke the last sentence, the urgency at the beginning was replaced by apology.

He went to do disaster relief, and the situation in the disaster area is unclear now, so it's not clear when he can come back. He left his wife after only three or four days of marriage, and I feel a bit sorry for her.

But Yu Sui was already prepared.

To be honest, when another earthquake happened in 2008, she wished she could go and help.

Isn't it right for her husband to fulfill his duties now?
