Natural Disaster Apocalypse

The destructive power of locusts is gradually decreasing. After the government issued a notice to purchase locusts, more and more people came out of their homes to catch locusts.

Although many people have found that with the departure of some locusts and the government's daily fires, the number of locusts is decreasing, but because they don't see too many people outside, some people are eager to go out to catch locusts, but they don't have the guts , After all, the number has decreased, but there are still many.

Until more and more people went out, the number of people catching locusts increased, and those who dared not go out suddenly felt safe, but when they all came out, they found that the number of locusts that could be caught became less and less. One day I could catch one or two bags of locusts, but the next day there were only a few sporadic ones. Because some people surrounded the yard, there was an aisle between the buildings outside the yard. Also got into fights.

Within four or five days of closing the door at home, in order to catch the remaining locusts, the entire residential area became extremely lively, especially in their area. Several families had children. The father took the children outside to catch them, and the children screamed Running around, it was very noisy, and even Xiao Zhu of the Cai family was rarely taken outside by the elders of the family. I heard that he was too excited to play, and even wet the bed while sleeping.

Mu Nan was upstairs watching Xiao Zhu, accompanied by his mother, squatting in the courtyard to wash his little blankets, the small back, bearing too many burdens that did not belong to his age.

Qin Huai came out of the bathroom and saw Mu Nan lying there with a smile on his face, so he also smiled: "What are you looking at?"

Mu Nan pointed to the downstairs: "Xiao Zhu wet the bed hahahaha."

"He's only three years old, and you're still wetting the bed when you're five years old."

This kind of thing is absolutely unacceptable, Mu Nan gave Qin Huai a blank look: "I believe you are a ghost."

This is really not Qin Huai's nonsense: "If you don't believe me, take out the photo album, there is a photo with the bed you peed in the background."

Mu Nan shook his head and denied: "Believe it or not, there are no photos, they disappeared at the old house and I didn't bring them."

Qin Huai poked him on the forehead: "It's not something you can erase by denying it. It's a pity that the camera function of your mobile phone was not as comprehensive as it is now. Otherwise, you will definitely take a picture of your entire crime scene, and look through the album in the future..."

Mu Nan jumped directly onto Qin Huai's back and pinched his neck: "What for? Do you humiliate me in public once you turn it over, huh?"

Qin Huai ran at a high speed, Mu Nan who was hanging on his back was startled, and hugged him tightly, for fear of falling himself, Qin Huai was amused by his reaction, Mu Nan was on his back desperately Pinched on the top: "You are really not afraid of falling on me! Put your head on the ground to see if it scares you to death!"

Qin Huai threw Mu Nan onto the bed: "Stupid or not? Am I going to throw you? Are you hungry? I'll make you some afternoon tea, do you want something salty or sweet?"

Now that I have asked, Mu Nan naturally began to order without any hesitation: "I want to eat fried chicken, there are cumin, chili powder and puff pastry on the outside."

"Okay, I'll make you fried chicken, do you want french fries?"

"want!"

When he got up from the bed, Qin Huai squeezed his waist smoothly: "I feed you like this every day, and I haven't seen you gain two catties."

Mu Nan slapped Qin Huai's hand away, and pinched his waist with a heavy face: "In order not to gain weight from eating and drinking, I now increase my running to one hour every day. If I continue to practice like this, if I can Recovery marathon, I can run a full marathon!"

Qin Huai smiled when he heard the words: "Want to complete a marathon in one hour? People only have half a marathon in three to five hours."

Mu Nan turned over on the bed and muttered: "It's still a horse anyway." For an abandoned house that gasps for breath after climbing several flights of stairs, being able to run a marathon is the ultimate evolution.

Because there are more and more people going out to catch locusts, some information is spreading faster and faster. People like Mu Nan who don't go out can also receive a lot of news through the chats of those people in the community group. For example, during the locust attack on the city, a residential area in Panyang Province ran out of ammunition and food, the water source was exhausted, and it was ravaged by locusts.

Yang Jing's parents are from that residential area, because they are locals, and her family was still rich before, and the family background is not very rich, at least the environment is good, and they have saved a little. Not going on anymore, Yang Jing's mother exchanged jewelry for a seat in the southbound convoy.

Because I don’t know the road conditions, the roads in many places are obstructed and haven’t opened to traffic, so there is a convoy saying that it will go south, and there are many people waiting and watching. They are afraid of encountering the kind of murder and robbery. After all, it is a private convoy, not the government. Military people.

But Yang Jing's father had good foresight in some aspects, so he simply took a gamble. Although the government will definitely arrange transfer or find other ways to relieve him if life is really difficult in the future, but just thinking about it I can predict how difficult the situation will be in the future, and it is not impossible to eat people in such a mess, so it is better to leave early than to stay.

They were lucky. They came all the way hungry and thirsty, but at least this convoy really wanted to ask for help to survive. There was no such thing as murder and robbery. There were some twists and turns on the road, and they even lost their way for a while. He died halfway through eating or drinking, and finally saw the flight traces of a large number of locusts, so he came here.

There are more than 20 vehicles in this convoy, some of which are private cars, and the others are large freight vehicles, so the number of people they bring is not small, there are almost two hundred people.

But they can only be regarded as the first batch. If the life in the north is too difficult, there may be many people who will come in order to survive.

These things are discussed in the community group every day. In the drought in the north, people have no food or drink. It is instinct for people to flee to places where there is a way out, but the more people come here, the scarce resources they have to share. This side has to run out of ammunition and food just like the north.

Some people complained in the group, hoping that these people will continue to go south. They don’t belong to the south, and there are other lands of fish and rice down there. It’s really not possible. Go to the city near the sea. The food on this land has been burned to death. Well, then all the fish in the sea will not be sunburned to death, maybe because of the lack of industrial fishing, seafood is now abundant.

Anyway, what many people think is that they are unwilling to let the government accept these people, and feel that the more people in the residential area, the more chaotic they are. The place they live in has not yet been rebuilt.

However, the government must have a government charter. If it exceeds a certain load, the government must not be able to accept it. It can only let people continue to go to other provinces and cities. However, whether it is the production of materials or the reconstruction of the region, it requires manpower. Yes, so maybe the higher-ups will try to keep people as much as possible. As long as there are people, the city will slowly return to normal operation, and it will no longer rely solely on national inventory relief.

When Wu Zheng, Xu Ming and the others started to go to work normally, Yang Jing's parents found them as Qin Huai expected, and even found people from the neighborhood committee. This time they didn't talk about anything else. If they lost their daughter, they must give what they should give. Among other things, they have nowhere to go now. At least one room can be vacated for them to live temporarily.

And the daughter is already an adult, so she can support her parents, and there must be normal alimony. No matter whether Yang Jing is willing to recognize them or not, the relationship of immediate family members cannot be let go.

However, what Yang Jing's parents never expected was that the house did not belong to Cai's family at all.

Cai Wentao, who was asked to mediate between the two parties at the neighborhood committee, experienced his acting skills for the first time. This time, he did not say that he was proficient, but at least he was familiar with it. Relying on the shelter of friends, the fire in Qinghe is now small, but some places have not been completely extinguished, and the place where we live has been burned to the ground. The rental application we submitted is still in the queue. May I ask what we have to take in these two. "

Without waiting for the people from the neighborhood committee to speak, Cai Wentao continued according to what Jian Chu taught before: "What's more, Yang Jing and I are only together, and now there is no Civil Affairs Bureau, so why get married? Yang Jing has never been with me, Let me figure it out, it's been two years, I haven't had a job, I've been eating and drinking my food, and you don't know how difficult it is to support a person now, it's impossible for someone's parents to find them and ask their daughters to support them , I will raise it together with the other party's parents, and even after getting married, I didn't force myself to support the other party's parents."

The mediator of the neighborhood committee looked at Yang Jing: "What do you say?"

Yang Jing lowered his head, tried his best to restrain his momentum, and pretended to be dependent on Cai Wentao: "I have the ability to raise it naturally, but now I even rely on others for my residence, what can I say, how do you judge me? Listen, it looks pretty good anyway, maybe you can sell it for two bucks to buy them something to eat and drink."

Mother Yang became angry immediately: "What are you talking about, a girl can say such things casually?"

Yang Jing seemed to smile, and looked at them with serious eyes: "Yes, you shouldn't be so direct, or you know someone who can give me happiness in the future, and then marry me as I should, are you My parents must be doing it for my own good, I know it."

Cai Wentao immediately dissatisfied: "What the hell! Then my two years of hard work have been in vain? I don't care. Although Yang Jing and I are not married, it is true that we have raised her for so long. Yes, we are in a normal relationship. I am raising her, I am willing, but her parents can't just say that I am not suitable, so just take her away, unless Yang Jing leaves voluntarily, otherwise, if you want to take her away, yes, I will count the expenses for these two years Once I do the calculations, I won’t go into the details with you, just make a rough generalization, if you can compensate me for my losses, and take them away, if you can’t, then don’t talk about anything!”

Father Yang suppressed his anger and said: "What are you, human trafficking? Pressing my daughter to prevent her from leaving?!"

Cai Wentao countered: "Then what are you guys, Immortal Dance? Just leave after eating and drinking?"

The mediator quickly stopped the quarrel: "Calm down first, talk slowly if you have anything to do."

Yang Jing suddenly said: "Before Wen Tao gave me fabrics and relied on making clothes for others, I kept a little money for myself, not much, just twenty yuan. This is the only money left that belongs to me. If you want Take it, there will be no more."

Cai Wentao quickly looked at Yang Jing: "Okay, you dare to save private money behind my back. I let you make clothes to make money for the public use! Now the green lotus is also burned, and the homemade cloth is gone. It just so happens that clothes are not available. Now, be honest with me in the future, and I'll give you a bite to eat. If you do anything behind my back, don't blame me for being rude! I don't want to support a woman who is behind my adoptive mother's family!"

Yang Jing lowered his head, as if he tacitly accepted what Cai Wentao said, but this made Yang's father and Yang mother very angry, and Yang's mother even said: "You calculate how much my daughter spent on you, We supply you!"

Yang Jing couldn't help but look at Yang's mother, even Cai Wentao was taken aback for a moment. According to Song Jia's analysis before, Yang Jing's parents definitely have no money, so there must be no way to take Yang Jing away. The current development is not the right script, but He reacted quickly, showing disgust in his eyes: "Do you look like you are rich? Let me tell you, you have to settle it all at once, or if you run away, where can I find someone!"

Mother Yang looked at Yang Jing: "Since you know how to make clothes, let's find fabrics to make clothes by ourselves to make money, and return the money we earn to him!"

Yang Jing was really laughed out of anger, Cai Wentao also breathed a sigh of relief, and he was even more confident: "You guys are really pretending to be whores for nothing. If it weren't for me, Yang Jing would have starved to death on the street! Don't talk about anything else, help me How do you repay the favor? Now use my woman to make money and return it to me, but also support you, what a face!"

Yang's mother went to pull Yang Jing: "You white-eyed wolf, I have raised you so much, I have worked so hard to cultivate you, and this is how you repay us?!"

Yang Jing said in a very calm tone: "You have raised your brother for eighteen years, and you have devoted yourself to cultivating it. Otherwise, I will repay you in my brother's way?"

Cai Wentao said to the mediator at the side: "Do you know how her brother repaid it?"

How could the mediator know so clearly, he naturally shook his head.

Cai Wentao: "I was forced to jump off the building by this pair of parents."

The mediator's eyes suddenly changed. He thought she was a white-eyed girl who would not have parents if she had food and drink and was raised by others. It seems that there is something else going on in this matter.

Tossing and tossing until midnight, until Cai Wentao came back after posting a sentence in the group, the people waiting at home were relieved.

Aunt Yin is playing mahjong with Sun Sisi, her niece, and Jian Chu. The card is soybeans. There is no way. They only have soybeans, which are available in every family. Mu Nan is also at Song Jia’s house, helping Niuniu take a bath with Xiaozhu. Song Jia Ze leisurely ate the fried soybeans made by Aunt Yin in the morning and watched the cards behind, and couldn't help but make a few comments at the end of the round.

At present, Jian Chu is the only one who loses the game. When Jian Chu came on the court, he said that in a game of three women and one man, the man must lose. Mu Nan was still skeptical about this, but now looking at their small baskets of soybeans, Jian Chu was about to hit the bottom, and Aunt Yin won the most. Sure enough, the law of the poker table is quite accurate sometimes.

Uncle Cai went to work, and Guo Hui and Cai Wenwen were arranging mushrooms in the room. It took a few days, and the mushroom packs they made were finally mature, and the mushrooms would grow by controlling the temperature and water. But everyone gathered here, mainly waiting for Cai Wentao and the others to come back, just waiting to be bored, so they each found something to do.

When Cai Wentao and Yang Jing came back, they saw the family members on the card table and the friends who were chatting with the dog. At that moment, they really felt like they were bringing their girlfriend home, but it was only a momentary trance, because Sun Sisi When I saw them coming back, I quickly asked: "What's the situation? Has it been resolved this time? Will they come again?"

Yang Jing: "I don't know if they will come again. Anyway, according to the mediation of the neighborhood committee, I gave them 20 yuan, and they will pay for maintenance if they are able. , that would be great."

At the beginning, Yang Jing was worried that her parents would take her away by force. Her father had just turned 50 this year and was still in his prime. With her mother, it would be difficult for her to resist alone. What's more, if her parents took her daughter away, I'm afraid Others will help, and the best result is that she has the ability to pay some alimony, and then don't bother each other.

But if she can do this, she won't resist that family until she dies, and if she wants to completely break it off, either she dies, or she can watch them die cruelly.

Sun Sisi said: "Then what if they get entangled?"

Cai Wentao: "Isn't it me who is entangled? Just drive him away. As long as Yang Jing can be ruthless, he will be able to get rid of it sooner or later. If he is not ruthless, then he will show a little soft-heartedness, and it will be difficult to get rid of him."

Everyone heard the words and looked at Yang Jing, Yang Jing glanced at Cai Wentao: "Then leave it to you, from the day I left home in college, I treated myself as dead, and they were dead too."

This topic is a bit heavy, anyway, the current troubles are solved, as for future entanglements, that is a matter for the future, Aunt Yin waved to Yang Jing: "Come, come, play cards and relax."

Yang Jing smiled and said, "You can play, I don't know how to play cards." Then he looked at Mu Nan and said, "I'm going back to make towels, your cloths will be processed soon, and they will be given to you in two days. "

Mu Nan, who was covered in water after washing the dog, said, "No hurry, take your time, my family still has use."

Yang Jing nodded, and thanked Cai Wentao again. Anyway, since her personal affairs are so troublesome to others, she even asked for a day off for her. Mu Nan gave her the homemade cloth that she hadn't finished before, let's make some clothes and give it away. Apart from this, she has no other skills.

Yang Jing went back, Sun Sisi continued to play cards, and Tu Juan was still in the room, so Yang Jing would not be left alone, and Yang Jing was actually a very strong girl in their hearts. When the earthquake hit, they all panicked, it was Yang Jing Jing has been calmly directing them what to do, how to evacuate, where to collect supplies, and how to hide the found things. When they get here, it is Yang Jing's idea to choose where to live.

In fact, many times girls are really able to live comfortably, at least they will not let her parents suffer from hunger, but it is a pity that such a good daughter does not cherish it.

The poker game was still going on, Mu Nan and Xiaozhu wiped Niuniu's fur half dry, but fortunately Niuniu is not a long-haired dog, so after a half dry run in an air-conditioned room, it will dry quickly.

Xiaozhu was taken to take a bath by Cai Wenwen who came out of the mushroom house, and Mu Nan waved him goodbye. Now that Yang Jing’s follow-up is over, and he can’t read cards, he might as well go home and watch a movie with his brother.

Mu Nan returned home, took a shower, and then slumped on the sofa. Qin Huai was updating the game. Mu Nan couldn't understand it, and his eyes were dizzy from reading a bunch of characters, so he picked up his notebook: "I'm watching variety shows."

Qin Huai didn't raise his head: "Look."

"Will it bother you? Or should I wear headphones?"

Qin Huai smiled when he heard this, and then turned his head to look at him: "I can't disturb you, see, don't wear earphones, earphones hurt your hearing, just put them out."

Mu Nan found a comfortable angle, and put a bunch of pillows to cushion his head, cushion his waist, and put his feet on Qin Huai's lap. Qin Huai pinched his feet and took a look. Before the nails grew, he was temporarily let go.

Seeing him touching his feet and then tapping on the computer, Mu Nan snorted in disgust: "You touch the computer without washing your hands."

Qin Huai gave him a squinting look: "I don't even dislike it, but what do you dislike about your own feet?"

"To be a human being, one must be hygienic."

Qin Huai patted the back of his feet: "You still put your feet on me when you talk about hygiene."

Mu Nan hugged her other foot and smelled it: "It smells good, I just took a shower."

Seeing Qin Huai ignoring him, Mu Nan became quiet, so as not to disturb him making money, but after being quiet for a while, watching the variety show, the host was asking the celebrity guests what is the first place they look at when looking at the opposite sex. When it comes to looking at the face, some people say it depends on the body, fat or thin.

Mu Nan kicked Qin Huai: "What about you, brother, where do you first look at the opposite sex?"

Qin Huai: "I know how to look at faces."

Mu Nan kicked him lightly again: "You really only like my good looks, you only like my face!"

Qin Huai smiled lightly and said, "What script did you get today?"

Mu Nan thought for a while: "Unreasonably making trouble with the script?"

Qin Huai typed the last letter, saved the file, closed the computer, and looked at Mu Nan: "How about another one?"

"What?"

Qin Huai also closed Mu Nan's computer: "Change the Overlord's hard bow script?"

The two quarreled on the sofa for quite a while, and Mu Nan, who was refreshed after taking a shower, broke out in a sweat with Qin Huai, then rubbed his stomach and cried out that he was hungry.

Mu Nan wanted to eat big fried chicken drumsticks, but Qin Huai didn't agree, saying that he had eaten too much fried food in the past two days and wanted to eat something light. Mu Nan rolled his eyes as he followed Qin Huai to the small kitchen in the living room: "If you want a light supper, why not have a supper?"

Qin Huai: "I'll make you some Mala Tang."

Mu Nan's eyes lit up instantly and then quickly went out: "Bone soup Malatang?"

Qin Huai frowned: "Eat or not? If not, eat some biscuits and sleep."

Mu Nan groaned for a while, and dawdled for a long time seeing that Qin Huai had no intention of compromise, so he nodded and agreed, bone broth is bone broth, it's better than biscuits.

While Qin Huai was cooking for him, Mu Nan looked at the time, and the clock was ticking, and their weekly rice quota was opened again, so he hurriedly took his mobile phone to buy online.

Now this kind of staple food, everyone has a fixed amount every week. At most, the variety you buy is different, and the amount of catties you can buy is also different. Anyway, he and Qin Huai buy all the rice with one account every time, and the other Account to buy some flour seasoning oil salt sauce vinegar.

After Mu Nan quickly placed the order, he discovered the price change: "Brother, the price has increased again. Now the price of rice is four yuan a catty."

Qin Huai waited for the bone soup to boil, while looking at Mu Nan's mobile phone: "Last week, it was only 3.5 yuan, and I am afraid that the price will increase in the future. If the price does not continue to increase, then the weekly purchase amount for each person may be 100% It has to be lowered."

Mu Nan frowned: "I always feel that this will cause problems. Now those workers who move bricks can hardly afford a catty of rice a day. How can they support a family? Doesn't it mean that potatoes will be sold soon? Is it, it’s a bit strange that food prices are rising at this time.”

Qin Huai: "Unless there is something wrong with Tudou."

Mu Nan: "...No way."
