Chapter 182 Cold Wave
No matter how outsiders talked, the days in the compound were as peaceful as ever.

Lian Yao took care of the housework, Wu Qingfeng took Lin Bao and Zhu Guozhong to learn how to farm.Just like a real family, living an ordinary farm life.No disputes, no wind and rain, only peace and warmth.

In November, taking advantage of the fine weather, the corn, soybeans, sweet potatoes and potatoes in the field were already ripe. Zhu Guozhong took his whole family and two new apprentices and worked for a whole month before collecting all the grain in the field. granary.

Compared with them having greenhouses and planting them earlier, the crops replanted by other families are still a little too late.Fortunately, the fine weather has continued. Although it will take a while to mature, there is always hope.

In December, the weather is finally not so hot.The average temperature has dropped below [-] degrees, but it is still much warmer than in previous years.When it's time to wear a padded jacket, all you need is a sweater.The temperature that has never been normal for a year, and the failure of the second season of rice harvest have caused people in the village to fluctuate, and many people feel inexplicably panicked.

They began to recall what Wu Qingfeng had said, and rushed to the town to buy food and daily necessities.However, when they arrived in the town, they realized that the price of grain and oil was not as low as they remembered.

In the past, a bag of 90 catties of early rice cost more than 100 yuan, but now it has risen to more than [-] and nearly [-] yuan.And still can't buy much with cash.Boss Mi guarded the half-empty storefront, dismissing people's doubts.

Is this too expensive?If it weren't for the management from above, he could drive up to [-], and he wouldn't worry about being wanted by anyone.It's a pity that the management is too strict now, otherwise he would really be able to make a fortune out of it.

But seeing that food is so tight this year, does he want to stock up more and put it at home?You must know that Chunan is a major grain-producing province, and the surrounding villages are all rice fields. I have never seen farmers who grow rice go out to buy rice and eat it back.No, it's so wrong.

Boss Mi rubbed his chin and stared at the little goods left in his shop, his thoughts had already turned several times.After driving away a few price inquirers, he turned around and lowered the shutter.

Unable to buy food, the villagers went to inquire about daily necessities.It turns out that even daily necessities have also risen.The money I brought with me was only enough to buy less than one-third of the plan.The huge gap finally allowed the villagers to see the reality clearly, but it also caused greater panic.

They ran to find Zhu Xiaowu together, dragged Zhu Xiaowu to the compound, and wanted Wu Qingfeng to give them advice.

After Wu Qingfeng heard what they said, he just said lightly: Don't care about money, buy what you can buy quickly, and the price may rise sharply in the future.

After the end of the world, money is like waste paper, so it is better to exchange it for something more practical now.

Someone had the cheek to want Wu Qingfeng to point it out, but Wu Qingfeng's face turned cold, and he turned and left without saying a word.The rest of Lin Bao began to see off the guests with a mocking smile.

Do you really think that he is willing to reveal the news and treat him as a good person?Those who like to dream should also wake up well.

After sleeping until midnight, Wu Qingfeng suddenly felt cold.He got up from the quilt, and goose bumps immediately appeared on his exposed arms.

Touching the cold skin, Wu Qingfeng reckoned that the temperature might have dropped below zero.He simply put the quilt on his body, got out of bed and found a thick down jacket from the cabinet.

After getting dressed, he went to the storage room inside and found three hot water bottles.It is a very old-fashioned rubber hot water bottle filled with water, not the hot water bottle that is charged now.After the apocalypse, power plants have long stopped supplying electricity, and that new type of hot water bottle is waste.

Because Lianyao is afraid of the cold, he stocked up a lot of these rubber hot water bottles, enough for her to use for decades.

Go to the kitchen and turn on the fire, put a pot of water on the stove.He tiptoed into Lian Yao's room again, and took out two quilts from the cabinet.

"Brother?"

Lian Yao, who was awakened by the cold, found him immediately.It was just too cold, she curled up in the quilt and didn't want to get up at all.

Wu Qingfeng covered her with a quilt and touched her face: "Well, the temperature has dropped, I'll give you an extra quilt."

The hands exposed to the cold air outside in the middle of the night were not as warm as in the past, the icy touch made Lian Yao shiver.

Seeing this, Wu Qingfeng immediately withdrew his hand, and after pressing the quilt tightly, seeing that Lianyao was still cold, he glanced at Nanjian.

"Lie down well, I'll fill you with a hot water bottle."

Hearing this, Lianyao's eyes lit up, and her voice became much clearer: "Thank you, senior brother!"

Wu Qingfeng smiled, and took another quilt at hand into the south room, and spread it on the head of the kang.Then he opened the door and went out for a while, came back with a basket in his hand, and entered the south room again.

Lian Yao didn't know what he was going to do, and she didn't make a sound, she just hid under the quilt and followed him with only her eyes exposed.It took a long time to know that Wu Qingfeng was preparing to burn the kang.

A flash of fire flashed, and the fireplace in the south room was lit.Although it can't heat up the room immediately, the warm orange fire light makes people feel much warmer.

After lighting the fireplace, Wu Qingfeng went out again, and came back with two hot water bottles in his hands.One is placed in Lian Yao's hand, and the other is inserted from her foot.

"The kang isn't hot yet, so use this to warm up first. I'll go see Lin Bao."

Entering the east ear room, Lin Bao had already wrapped himself into a ball with a quilt.It took Wu Qingfeng a long time to pull open a corner and stuff the hot water bottle into it.

Feeling the heat, there was a squirm in the quilt, and soon the hot water bottle was transferred to nowhere.The most amazing thing is that during the whole process, Lin Bao didn't even open his eyes, and he didn't seem to wake up at all.

Wu Qingfeng couldn't help but find it funny, stretched out his hand and stroked the exposed head, then found a quilt and pressed it on it. Seeing the ball slowly stretch out, he gently closed the door and went out.

Returning to Lian Yao's room again, Lian Yao was still asleep.Seeing him come in, he handed out a hot water bottle from the tightly wrapped quilt with difficulty: "Brother, warm your hands with this."

"No, don't move around, be careful of the wind getting in the quilt." Wu Qingfeng stuffed the hot water bottle back.

Lian Yao held the hot water bottle and looked at him with sparkling eyes: "Brother, you are so kind!"

A gentle smile appeared on the corner of Wu Qingfeng's mouth, he walked over and sat on the edge of the bed, lowered his head and pressed his forehead to each other, and the two sniffed at each other.In the dark room, two pairs of bright eyes are tender and tender.

With piety, Wu Qingfeng kissed Lian Yao's forehead again solemnly like a ceremony: "I will always treat you well."

Lian Yao was infected by his attitude, and said solemnly: "I will also treat you well, and always treat you well."
