Chapter 12: Typhoons and Tsunamis 3
It was already past nine after watching the movie, and she climbed into bed and went to bed.
The house swaying gently from time to time, and the typhoon blowing outside the window.
No one is likely to be able to sleep this night.
Su Su couldn't sleep well after tossing and turning all night.
The next day, she woke up with a little dark circles under her eyes.
She washed her hands and then went to the kitchen to make a cup of rice and put it in a clay pot. She washed both sides of the rice and boiled it on the stove.
Then use a small steamer to steam three eggs and two corn.
By the time she finished brushing her teeth and washing her face, the corn and eggs had already been steamed.
She ate a corn and an egg, and put the rest into the space.
When she was ready to make a bowl of Congee to drink, the door of the living room suddenly rang.
She put down her porridge and went to open the door.
A middle-aged man looked at a woman opening the door and his tone became impatient.
I am the owner of the third floor downstairs from you. Now the first and second floors have been flooded due to the tsunami, and there is backflow in the toilets and sewers. You upstairs people, please don't pour water downwards anymore
Su Su nodded and responded with a 'yes'.
The man looked at her in surprise when he saw her readily agreeing, then walked into the stairwell and continued up the stairs.
Su Su closed the door and returned to the table to continue drinking Congee.
After taking two sips, she felt it was too light. She remembered collecting a lot of bottled and canned dishes at the department store.
She took a bottle of rice porridge from it, which was delicious and crispy, and made her eat two bowls of Congee.
After eating and drinking enough, it's time to get down to business.
Since the toilet and sewer are no longer usable, in order to prevent the backflow of air from the pipes and to prevent the air in the room from becoming foul smelling.
She plans to seal off the toilet and sewer first.
Release some bricks and cement sand from the space, fill the cement sand in a large bucket according to the proportion, and then add some water to the bucket and mix well.
Although she has never laid bricks, as the saying goes, she has never eaten pork and has never seen pigs run around.
She followed the video she had watched and built the bricks one by one, completely sealed the toilet and sewer, and finally covered them with cement.
Although it cannot be compared to skilled craftsmen, as long as it can be used, it is fine.The remaining bricks and cement were taken back into space by her.
After all this fuss, I also sweated a little and felt sticky and uncomfortable.
Since the power outage yesterday, there has been no water left. The water for cooking breakfast was taken out of the space by her.
In order to save some water, she only poured a little water and wet it with a towel to wipe away sweat.
Due to not sleeping well last night, she felt a bit tired and decided to go back to her room to take a nap.
We have just entered the apocalypse, and the evil thoughts of human nature have not yet been exposed.
At least within three days, the interaction between people is still peaceful.
According to the layout of Building D, each floor has two elevators and four households.
At present, only the first and second floors have been flooded, which means that eight households have nowhere to live.
However, no one has knocked at the door to stay, which means that someone downstairs has taken the initiative to take them in.
The tsunami did not only occur for one or two days, but lasted for about 15 days.
As time goes by, the water level will only rise higher and higher, and by then people on lower floors will be forced to move upstairs.
Their house has been flooded and they have no food or drink. Even if someone takes them in, how much can they take in and how long can their family's food last.
No one knows about this!
So these days she can rest as much as possible, and in a few more days, she may not even dare to sleep at night.
Su Su had a beautiful awakening and it was already 11:30 noon.
She first took a look at the water level outside the window, and the third floor was already half submerged.
Unfortunately, the sky remained gloomy and she couldn't see what the people in the opposite building were doing.
Thinking too much can be nerve wracking, so it's better to have lunch first and then continue exercising.
I want to eat paper wrapped fish today!
She remembered ordering paper wrapped fish when she ordered takeout, and it wasn't just one serving.
I took out a paper wrapped fish from the cooked food area of the space, and it was still warm just as I took it out.
After all, when ordering takeout, the cooked food delivered by the deliveryman is always hot.So she ate half a fish with rice and was full.
Just then, the doorbell rang.
Su Su quickly put the dishes and leftover fish into the space, and then went over to open the door.
As soon as I opened the door, I saw several people standing at my doorstep.
If she remembers correctly, one of them is Guan Xiaojing's mother.
There is a woman in her fifties and two men in their thirties next to her.
The two men are tall and short, but their facial features are somewhat similar. They should be two brothers.
As soon as the two brothers saw Su Su, their eyes lit up and they stared at her intently.
As soon as Guan Xiaojing saw Su Su open the door, she quickly nudged the old lady's arm with her elbow.
The old lady quickly smiled and said, "Hello, I live on the third floor below. My house is flooded and there is no place to stay. I heard that you live alone. Can you let us stay overnight
Who did you hear that from? "Su Su interrupted her directly.
This... "Auntie glanced at Guan Xiaojing's mother and hesitated to speak.
Su Su shifted her gaze to Guan Xiaojing's mother's face, looking at her with a smile or not.Guan Xiaojing's mother blushed and turned green at Su Su's piercing gaze.
She was a little embarrassed and angry, saying, "It's me. What's wrong? Little girl, we are all neighbors living in the same building. As the saying goes, close neighbors are better than distant relatives. Now their houses have been flooded.
As their neighbor, it wouldn't be too much for you to take them in for a few days, would it.
Since you have such a kind heart and are also their neighbor, then you can just take them in directly.
