Chapter 92 It’s Raining (33)
There was nothing wrong with Lan Jin's explanation. After all, when a new gadget comes out, you have to see what other people think before making a decision. In addition, she and Huang Jinghe's home has batteries. Although there is no air conditioning and it is a little more troublesome to get water, everything else is the same as before. In comparison, her own home is definitely more comfortable.
Ke Lanjin and Huang Jinghe were fine, but Ling Jiang was depressed. "I really want to take grandma to live at the base, but if we go, Lao Shi and I will be separated. There's no car right now, so it will be difficult for me to come back once I go. Grandma doesn't want to, because she's afraid that I'll be separated from Lao Shi again because of this at my age, and then I won't be able to find a partner."
Lao Gao immediately said, "That won't happen. Your relationship is so deep."
Lao Gao explained to them, "Sister Ling and Lao Shi were classmates in elementary school, junior high school, and high school. They only separated in college. They can be considered childhood sweethearts, but they didn't get together until they were over 30. I don't know what went on before that, but I have a feeling that you two will never separate."
"We can stay together, but there's no car right now. After all, you and Grandma Ling won't be able to see the time police anymore. It's normal for Grandma Ling to have such thoughts." Lan Jin said, "Why don't you just wait and talk about it later. See what the environment is like over there, and then see what the situation is like when there are fewer people here. Then see what the time police have planned. It's not like this is your only chance to go to the base. We can discuss this later. There's no rush."
Perhaps the four of them didn't seem to be in a hurry, so they never talked about the base again.
A week later, two buses stopped at the gate of the community. These buses were for the residents who were transferred to the base. However, after all the registered residents got on, they found that the two buses were not full.
But things were different when this group of people went there. Although they had gone, the Internet was still available. There was water, electricity, air conditioning and internet. Besides being excited, they also sent photos of the base to the residents' group, and successfully attracted a group of hesitant residents to sign up.
With this popularity, the number of people registering again is indeed much higher than before.
During this week, the place with the most people is undoubtedly the supermarket. Where do the supplies come from? They can only be bought from the supermarket with contribution points. At this time, who can have extra supplies at home? Apart from queuing up to get water and buy food every day, the supermarket is the busiest place.
However, no matter how busy you are, supplies are always limited. Not to mention the purchase time limit, there are still so many people in each household. In short, even if there are a lot of people, it will not be possible to move them over in a short time.
After the first batch of residents were sent to the base the next day, it was finally December.
…
The weather is still hot, with the outdoor temperature remaining over 60 degrees for a long time, and finally breaking through 70 degrees this month.
The leaves were dry and yellow from the sun, the soil was cracked from the sun, and yellow sand and dust were everywhere outside. However, these were nothing. When the weather got hot, mosquitoes became more rampant. Originally, they could walk outside wearing long sleeves and long pants, but now they were in danger of being bumped into at any time. Not to mention being dirty, it was also uncomfortable due to the heat. After discussing it, Lan Jin and Huang Jinghe finally decided to end their boxing lessons.
Lao Gao and Ling Jiang were not surprised by their decision. After all, no matter how many contribution points they had, they could not withstand long-term consumption.
But after the two of them left, Lao Gao’s boxing gym closed down.
But after this month and half a month of courses, Lan Jin felt that she had gained a lot. After all, with the skills and her own strength, she could definitely achieve twice the result with half the effort, and the safety issue had been improved.
As for Huang Jinghe...
This really depends on himself. In the half-month course, there was not a single day when he didn't howl like a ghost, no matter whether he was taught by Lao Gao or Ling Jiang.
Huang Jinghe had experienced a lot of frustration during this month, but Ling Jiang privately told her, "Xiao Huang has made great progress. When you actually put your hands to it, you can see the results."
After hearing Ling Jiang say this, Lan Jin naturally felt relieved.
As long as it works, it means that the contribution points spent in the past half month have not been wasted.
Another week passed, and when the third group of people was sent away, Lan Jin began to pay attention to the weather.
After all, the heavy rain in the previous life started when the third group of people were being sent to the base. However, not only did the heavy rain not fall, but even after half a month, the heavy rain still did not fall.
Then Lan Jin became confused. After all, this end of the world was really different from the previous life. So would there still be a heavy rain period?
If Huang's father and mother called at this moment, would she leave or not?
However, before she could finish her worries, one morning in late December, a light rain began to drip on the rainproof edge.
Soon, the sound of rain became louder and louder, accompanied by the cheers of the residents in the building. After all, it hadn't rained for several months. Not to mention reducing the heat, even reducing the number of mosquitoes was a very happy thing.
It's just that the rain has just started, and the smell of rain mixed with dust and sand fills the air, which is really unpleasant.
Lan Jin turned on the humidifier and dropped a drop of peppermint essential oil into it. After the effect of the essential oil evaporated, the air smelled much fresher.
It had been a long time since we last saw rain. Lan Qiaoqiao, who had just gotten up, was so excited that she wanted to open the window and go out to catch the rain. Lan Jin wouldn't let her: "Let's go play in the rain later. Let's have breakfast first. What do you want to eat? Let's eat first and then play."
As soon as he heard about breakfast, foodie Qiao Qiao immediately gave up the idea of playing in the rain, took his little chair and went to the coffee table to sit down and think.
"The buns are delicious. I want the same ones from yesterday."
Yesterday, Ran Qiaoqiao ate custard buns, the kind with cartoon patterns. Almost every child likes it. And Ran Qiaoqiao didn’t just eat it yesterday. She has been eating it for the past week without even changing the flavor.
Lan Jin took out the custard buns, got herself a few meat buns, and drank some soy milk, then she started eating breakfast.
However, before the mother and daughter finished their breakfast, they heard bursts of wailing outside, "Ah, what is this rain? It hurts."
The wailing sounds came one after another in the building, and many of the sounds were very close to her. This was no longer a small-scale probability problem. There must be something wrong with the rain.
Thinking about the little kid going to play in the rain before breakfast, Lan Jin was very glad that she stopped him. "Luckily we had breakfast, otherwise you would be screaming like those people right now."
