marriage is natural

Chapter 527

"Who are you? What do you mean it's the same at your place? My place is home, what is your place? Tell Qiao Zhida to come over and answer the phone!"

Ye Ruzhen was so angry that her eyes were red, who else could it be, it must be that shameless vixen, dead mistress!The saboteur's family will suffer a terrible death!

"Brother Zhida was injured. His sister-in-law drove him out to buy food last night. He was hit on the back by a falling signboard. He was caught in the rain again and burned all night. He only retreated in the morning. He just woke up now, feeling weak. Yes, it's really inconvenient to go back..."

"I..." Hearing that her husband was injured while shopping in the supermarket, Ye Ruzhen was speechless for a while, but she heard Xiaosan's soft and weak voice, so don't feel aggrieved.

"You asked him to answer the phone. Could it be that he can't even say a word when he's injured?" Ye Ruzhen's voice became louder as she thought about it more and more: "Also, why should I drive him out to buy things? We can't eat anything at home. No, when a typhoon comes, are we all waiting to starve to death? Is he a man..."

"Yes! I'm not a man, at least I can't be a man with you. Ye Ruzhen, I'm fucking done! You just said divorce, right? All right! As you wish! As soon as the typhoon is over, go through the formalities for divorce!"

"Kacha", Qiao Zhida hung up the phone after saying a few words.

Ye Ruzhen dialed again, and the phone was already turned off.She was so angry that she raised her hand and smashed the phone.

She was right to mention the divorce, but she didn't really want a divorce, it was just out of anger.

At such an old age, what idea do you have for divorce?Not to mention herself, her daughter will be admitted to university in one year, and she will be on a blind date in a few years. Although it is more open than the old society these days, there is still a huge difference between having a complete family and divorcing parents.The dead man is so merciless, he must have been blown into the pillow by a wild woman...

Qiao Yiling became more and more upset when she heard what her parents were arguing on the phone.Touching the gauze on the wound on her wrist, she thought that if she really succeeded in suicide, she would not have to bear so much pressure, but when she thought of the pain when the blade fell on the flesh of her wrist, she couldn't help shivering. That courage to endure another wrist-slitting suicide.

One of the two mothers was sulking, the other was in a daze, and finally stayed up until three o'clock in the afternoon.

"Mom, I'm hungry."

"Go cook rice dumplings when you're hungry, you have no hands or feet!" Ye Ruzhen said impatiently.

Qiao Yiling curled her lips. With such a bad temper, it's no wonder that her father wanted to hide away, even she didn't want to stay at home.But after thinking about it, I still didn’t dare to say it, so I got up and went to the refrigerator to get the rice dumplings, put the rice dumplings in the pot, added two spoonfuls of water, and turned on the gas to start cooking.This was a great discovery.

"Mom! The gas has stopped! What should I do!" Qiao Yiling cried anxiously.Although there are not many zongzi, they can last a meal anyway, but how can they eat when the gas is turned off? You can't eat frozen zongzi.

No electricity, no water, no gas, this is really bad.

What can be done?It is still windy and rainy outside, although it is much better than last night, but in such bad weather, let alone the supermarket is closed, how dare you go out and buy?If you get hit by a signboard or something, it is not a matter of starving, and it is very likely that you will lose your life.

The two mothers were in a hurry, and they couldn't think of a way.In the end, two slices of bread per person dealt with the matter, rubbed their half-starved stomachs, and went back to the room to sleep.You won't feel hungry when you fall asleep...

Compared with the mess of Qiao's family, He Wei's place is much warmer.

Following the power outage at Yuecheng Apartment last night, water and natural gas were also cut off one after another.

Fortunately, there is self-generated electricity, so if there is no gas, it will be stewed with electricity.

He Qingdong changed the half-simmered seafood stew in the casserole to an electric cooker, adjusted it to a low heat, and continued to simmer.

The rice cooker is also plugged in and ready to cook claypot rice.

Lunch will be delicious seafood soup with cured meat claypot rice.

Yuanyuan chewed the last half of the milk steamed bun, and jumped onto the sofa happily: "Hey! I haven't eaten claypot rice for a long time, so happy and happy! But boss, can you really make it? It's not just about putting all the ingredients together. Put it into the rice cooker and plug it in to cook it?" Can the food taste good after cooking like that?Yuanyuan children's shoes expressed serious doubts.

He Qingdong was cutting shredded ginger, egg skins, and dried sausage according to the recipe, when he heard this he glanced at his little cousin: "You don't have to eat it if you don't want to eat it."

"No, no, of course I'll eat." Yuanyuan said in a timely manner.

What is the current environment?Typhoon God, it’s good to eat something, but if it’s really bad, eat less, at worst, eat a few more biscuits during snack time.

Recalling last night when she went to the refrigerator to dig out ice cream balls and saw vacuum-packed bacon and quick-frozen beef, Yuanyuan suggested on a whim: "Sister, why don't you make bacon pizza tonight."

He Wei was speechless: "Are you still eating breakfast right now?" Not only was she thinking about the claypot rice at noon, she was also thinking about dinner.

"Hey, isn't it boring during a typhoon? Anyway, there is electricity at home, so just use an oven. Is that okay, sister?"

"It's not just an oven, you have to knead the noodles with water. Do you want to wash the basin after you finish kneading the noodles? Do you know how to save water? If you want to eat pizza, there are ready-made pizzas in the freezer. If you want to eat homemade ones, wait until after the typhoon. Let's talk when everything returns to normal." He Wei patted him on the shoulder.The past two years have been so long, and I have developed into a foodie.

"But after the typhoon, you're going back. You're going back to Kyoto again in August. Poor me, I'm not even sure if I can take time off to drink my second brother's wedding..."

Yuanyuan's resentful expression made He Wei laugh.Thinking that there should be no shortage of drinking water at home, but if it is not possible, there is water in the space, at worst, some can be smuggled out, so she granted Yuanyuan's wish: "That's okay, I will make pizza tonight, but you have to help me, peel it off. Shrimp's work is yours."

"No problem!" Yuanyuan grinned not too happily in the ok gesture.

After breakfast, He Qingdong wore a black and white men's apron and was busy with lunch in the kitchen. Yuanyuan went back to her room to do her homework. He Wei sat cross-legged on the sofa and called home, thinking about the situation at home.

When Mother He heard that it was a call from her daughter, she snatched the phone from Father He and did not let go: "Weiwei, how are you doing there? Is there any stagnant water? Is there a power outage?"

He Wei reported the situation on her side. When He Mu heard that the apartment had a generator, her first reaction was the same as she was at that time: "Sure enough, it's a high-end apartment. If there is a power outage, you can generate your own electricity..." But the next sentence is It's different, "Should the owner pay for the generator himself? How much is the power generation fee distributed to each household? It's too expensive and it's not worth it..."

He Wei didn't know whether to laugh or cry, she was afraid that her mother would keep chattering around the generator, so she quickly changed the topic: "Mom, I heard Brother He said that there was a flood in the Jiangbin community? Flooded?"

"No matter how high it is, how can it be flooded? The drainage outside the community is still smooth. In the morning, your godfather called to ask, and the water level in the community is still above the elevated floor, not reaching the balcony on the second floor, which means it has been draining out. You don't have to worry, your godmother said early in the morning that she took all the valuables with her. The furniture and electrical appliances are all old and can't be old anymore. I don't feel bad if the flood really floods the house. I will replace them with new ones when I move to a new house next year. It's your grandma's house, and I haven't been able to contact you after calling for a long time, so I don't know what's going on."

Meilongqiao's natal family, Hemu has been worried all morning.

Called last night, but no one picked up this morning.Where can I go in such a strong wind and rain?Although the house of my natal family is a bungalow, it is a new house less than ten years old. I heard on the radio that the government had been arranging police forces to evacuate the dilapidated residents in the middle of the night yesterday.Besides, even if the government arranged to live somewhere else, wouldn’t there still be PHS? Why can’t the PHS of my siblings get through?

Although Hemu didn't like to go back to her natal family, her natal family didn't want to see her either. If the He family had lost contact, no one would care about her, but on the contrary, she couldn't do that.After all, her parents gave birth to her, especially at this critical juncture, what if something really happens?So she was in a hurry, and stayed by the radio after breakfast, hoping to hear news from the Westgate Bridge area.

He Wei was also anxious, but she didn't feel at ease. Parents drove to Meilong Bridge to see what happened. There were too many potential dangers along the way.

"Mom, wait a little longer. If something really happens, I think Uncle and the others will take the initiative to contact you. No news is good news. Maybe on the Meilong Bridge, people who live in bungalows, regardless of whether they are dilapidated or not, will be assigned to a safe place." The place is gone, uncle and the others forgot to bring their PHS, so they can't get in touch..."

In fact, He Wei was half right.

Meilongqiao is low-lying, and it is a township. The drainage system is not as good as that of the city. The typhoon has not yet officially landed, and half of the village has been flooded. The Zhou family happened to be among the flooded residents. In the middle of the night, Tangshui ran to the town hall, which was built on a high ground in the past two years. It was big and strong, and it was considered a safe refuge.The only thing I didn't expect was that after the typhoon landed, the rain intensified and the temperature plummeted. The family fled too quickly, and no one remembered to bring the quilt and luggage. They were shivering in the middle of the night.

"Grandma, I don't want to eat biscuits, I want to eat egg pancakes!" Early in the morning, Zhou's baby was rolling all over the floor, insisting on eating egg pancakes that couldn't be transformed at this time.

The old lady Zhou felt sorry for her precious grandson, and coaxed her in a good voice: "Yangyang, when we get home, I will bake you egg pancakes, ah, I will have some biscuits right now, don't you like drinking banana milk? Here, come, let me drink milk for you..."

Zhou Chenyang refused, and continued to roll on the dirty floor of the hall: "I don't want biscuits! I don't want milk! I want egg pancakes! Egg pancakes sprinkled with green onions! I won't get up if I don't eat them! I won't get up... "

"If you don't get up, go outside in the heavy rain!" The little kid's father is furious, not because he doesn't love his precious son, but because he can't hold his face in front of so many residents in the village and town, so he mentions his son and walks to the entrance of the great hall , It’s also good to scare your son.

But how can his wife agree, the precious son is not to mention the only precious golden grandson of the Zhou family, but also the only boy in the natal family. The brothers and sisters are all daughters, so they dote on them and rush out to snatch them from their husbands. The crying baby son: "Zhou Wenbin, you are crazy! It's so windy and rainy, and you really want to throw your son out? Yangyang, come to mommy, mommy will give you delicious food, don't talk to your daddy."

"Dad is bad! Dad is the worst! Yang Yang doesn't want Dad anymore!"

"Say it again?" Zhou Wenbin pointed at his son angrily and shouted.

"Okay!" The old man Zhou, who hadn't said much since he hid in the great hall, stopped his son: "What kind of noise does it look like in a public place, Yangyang can give him whatever he wants, and the little baby's , how much you can eat."

"The key is where do you get the egg pancakes now?"

"Then coax him with other things he likes to eat."

Zhou Wenbin was speechless. If he could be coaxed, he would make a fuss, but he couldn't.

"Let's not talk about this, you can borrow a phone call and ask your elder sister if she can call a car to pick us up. The rain will not stop for a while, and we don't have any quilts and luggage, so we can do it in one night. Hold on, but who knows when the rain will fall..."

Old man Zhou has been thinking about it for a long time. The eldest daughter and the youngest daughter now live in the north of Zhenbei, where the terrain is high and it is a residential area, so the upstairs cannot be flooded even if there is a flood.It's just that the youngest daughter lives with her parents-in-law. The house is not big, and there are six people living in it. It's not good to drag the family to the door on my own side, so I can only find the eldest daughter.

Zhou Wenbin, however, didn't really want to make this call: "Dad, you don't know about Eldest Sister's temper. She's always thoughtful about it. We didn't bring anything to the door and asked her to charter a car to pick her up. Do you think it's possible?"

"Otherwise, what are you going to do? Apart from having no quilt or clothes, there isn't much food brought out from home. I don't think Guang Yangyang can eat enough for three days alone, let alone we have so many mouths."

Seeing his son's rebuttal, old man Zhou's voice became much louder.Overheard by a neighbor next door, he interjected, "Lao Zhou, don't you have a girl in the city? If you don't run away at this time, when will you go? We have no choice, the whole family is trapped here, and we can't find it if we want to run away." Find a partner. You have such good conditions, why don't you go?"

"Yes, Dad, the second sister's family is now well-developed. Last time, I heard from the elder sister that the area of ​​the house is more than twice that of theirs. They even bought a car. When they are developed, they didn't take us over to have a look. Now the house is flooded. Could it be that she kicked us out after staying for a few days?" Zhou Wenbin's daughter-in-law Cai Mingzhu took the opportunity to answer.

The second aunt, who had always been of little interest, quietly bought a house and a car in the city, even if the house was bought with a loan. She didn't have much money on hand, how dare she ask the bank for a loan?So it is certain that the second aunt's family is rich, at least the woodware shop business is profitable.

Old man Zhou is very clear about it. The second daughter is the most worry-free of all the children. She struggled with it for a few years when she was a child. After the age of 15, she earns money for the family and earns work points. She even arranges the marriage herself. Not to mention that the money was not posted, and she had been paid many years of salary, so usually, the second elder would not think of her.Anyway, it is the son who is going to take care of the elderly, and so many daughters are thrown out, it doesn't matter if there is one less.
