Rebirth of Fortune Talisman

Chapter 1220
Bai Jing had already cooked the rice and kept it warm in the pot.

Wearing a thick padded jacket, she came over to take a look, and saw that the wing room had been tidied up and the heater was installed, so she took Shen Linxian and Shen Wei to clean it again, and put a thick mattress on the bed, and took the sheets. Several quilts were laid out.

These mattresses, sheets and quilts were all picked up by the three of Shen Linxian in the supermarket in the city before. They are all new, and they can be used with a quilt cover.

After the three rooms were completed, Han Yang and Shen Dalong had installed another layer of glass on the windows of the side room to make the heat preservation effect better.

All of them install tempered glass, and they are afraid that if it is too cold, ordinary glass will not be able to withstand freezing.

By the time everything was settled, it was already half-morning.

The five of them packed up and went back to the house for dinner.

And at this time, the temperature in the main room finally came up, and the room became much warmer.

Bai Jing cooked a table of good dishes to replenish everyone's body so that they can withstand the coming severe winter.

There was a pot of big spines on the table, as well as stewed old duck soup, and a big pot of vegetables.

Several people were also starving, sat down at the table, served a bowl of old duck soup for each of them, and began to eat with steamed buns.

Even Shen Wei, who has never liked meat very much, took the big spine and gnawed on it at this time, eating meat happily.

Such a big pot of meat, the five people ate it all up, the whole duck in the old duck soup was also eaten, and there was also a big pot of stewed vegetables with cabbage vermicelli, meat and tofu in it, all of which were also eaten all clean.

After eating, everyone felt their bodies warm up.

Han Yang put on his clothes, went outside to look at the thermometer, came back and said to Shen Dalong: "It's minus eighteen degrees."

Nourishes...

Bai Jing took a breath: "I only saw it when I was eating, and it was only twelve degrees below zero."

In other words, after eating for a while, the temperature has dropped by six degrees.

Look at the snow in the yard again, another thick layer has accumulated.

Han Yang put on his cotton clothes and was about to go out to sweep the snow, while saying: "Before it's too cold, everyone go out for some activities, so that the body can adapt to the severe cold earlier, otherwise, I'm afraid that the temperature will not be able to withstand it when it drops. "

Shen Linxian nodded and said to Shen Dalong: "Dad, I don't think we can live here any longer. Let's turn on the heating in the wing room as soon as possible. Let's move to the wing room early to save some coal."

Shen Dalong put on a cotton coat and went out: "I'm going to turn on the heating."

Bai Jing also put on her clothes, and pulled Shen Wei out: "Let's go for a walk in the village, my heart keeps going up and down."

Shen Wei sighed: "Our family is prepared, we bought a lot of coal before, but other people..."

Yes, it has been several years, and the village has never bought coal. How can everyone survive the winter in such cold weather?
But if their family is asked to contribute coal, Bai Jing and Shen Wei also know that this is impossible.

People are selfish, and no one can dedicate to others regardless of their own safety.

Not to mention whether the coal in their house is enough or not, even if there is a small mountain of coal in storage, it is impossible to give it to others. They have to prevent people from being vicious.

If you give to a matchmaker, the whole village must give it.

What's more, give more and more, even if the whole village gives it, no family has any relatives and friends, and you give them coal, they still think that your family doesn't know how much coal they have, so that relatives and friends can survive, they will definitely come over again Beg, if you give it, forget it, if you don't give it, I don't know how many disasters will be caused.

If word spreads, all the villages near and far know that your family has coal, so what if they all come to ask for it?Those gangsters in the countryside must also be eyeing your house. For the sake of coal, they may do something to harm you.

For their own safety, no matter how much coal their family has, it is impossible to give it away.

Therefore, I can only be ruthless, assuming that I don't see other people's suffering.

Bai Jing and Shen Wei came out of the house and walked on the village road through the thick snow.

Along the way, there was silence everywhere.

Suddenly, someone screamed: "Mom, what's wrong with you? You..."

Bai Jing pulled Shen Wei to follow the voice, and saw Granny Liu's eldest son running out of Granny Liu's house not far from their house, crying while running: "My mother is freezing to death, second child, Our mother froze to death."

Mrs. Liu has always lived alone, and her three sons take turns cooking.

The temperature dropped suddenly last night, and the old lady couldn't bear it, and she froze to death before getting up.

His son couldn't stand the cold even when he got up early today, so he found out all the things that could light a fire at home and built a brazier for the big and small ones in the house to warm up. I saw that the old lady was frozen.

Bai Jing sighed: "I'm afraid the few elderly people in the five-guarantee households in the village are exhausted."

Sure enough, after a while, all the people in the village started to move, and they all came out of their homes in thick clothes to help carry the corpse.

That night, a total of six elderly people died in the village. The oldest was in his 90s, and the youngest was in his [-]s.

In such a cold day, the dead couldn't be buried. We had to dig six pits with great effort, bury the old man's body in it, and then carved a word with wood and inserted it on the grave, which was considered a tombstone.

The old man's burial was done very quickly, and it was finished in the afternoon.

The Shen family, Shen Dalong and Han Yang also followed suit, and it was already dark when they came back.

Shen Dalong entered the house and said to Bai Jing: "The village head organizes people to cut trees on the mountain. At this time of year, I can't care about anything else. Survival is the most important thing."

Also, without coal, wood has become an important thing for heating. Everyone must go up the mountain to cut trees in order to survive.

"Our family should also send someone to follow up the mountain." Han Yang thought for a while: "I will follow tomorrow, otherwise it will be too conspicuous."

Shen Dalong nodded: "Wear thicker tomorrow and put on those suede boots."

At this time, the boiler in the big house had already gone out, and everyone had already moved to the side room.

The clay stove in the wing room was very hot, and the whole family gathered here to keep warm and eat.

Bai Jing cooked on the stove, because there was only one stove, and the cooking was relatively simple. A pot of sweet potato and millet porridge was boiled, and a large pot of vegetables was stewed.

Five people sat around a small table and finished their meal.

Bai Jing covered the stove lid, grabbed a few handfuls of peanuts and put them on the stove lid. After a while, the aroma of roasted peanuts came out.

Five people surrounded the stove, and it was very warm around the stove. They put their feet close to the stove, and they all held peanuts on sticks made of wood.

Once the peanuts are roasted, they are quickly taken to a small bowl next to them, and everyone peels and eats.

Shen Linxian made another pot of tea, and while eating peanuts and drinking hot tea, he didn't feel worried anymore.
