Natural disaster at the beginning: I rely on the space to lie down with delicate salted fish

Chapter 49 Dark Clouds Rolling
It's a new day when you open your eyes. It's already May 5rd. It was originally a good Saturday rest day, which is very suitable for going out to experience the freedom and relaxation outside.But Jie Shu read the weather forecast last night, and there will be showers today.Through the covering curtains, Jie Shu saw that the outside was gray and the ground was still dry. It seemed that it hadn't started to rain yet.It is estimated that it will not be long before the raindrops will fall from the head, and then the rain will increase, and more desperate natural disasters will come.

Jie Shu got up and tidied up, walked to the living room, stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling windows of the living room, and looked at the junction of heaven and earth on the other side, there were already dark clouds billowing, quite like "black clouds overwhelm the city and want to destroy it". It is further invading the urban area.

According to the direction of the map, the direction of the dark clouds is the direction of the ocean. It seems that the sea breeze is behind the scenes, and the movement of the dark clouds can even be seen clearly.Jie Shu didn't stand in front of the window to observe for too long, the rain was just expected, although he knew that he would be shocked when he experienced it himself, but he could still hold on.Anyway, the glass has been replaced with local Chinese glass, which is absolutely strong. As long as you stay at home, even if "Phoenix" passes here, it will be safe and sound.

Jie Shu changed his clothes, took the apron and continued to the 26th floor, cooking according to the plan.Today is mainly stewed rice and cooking all kinds of rice porridge.Plug in several rice cookers together, according to Jieshu’s preference, besides ordinary white rice, Jieshu also puts sweet corn grains, bacon grains, pea grains, diced carrots, etc. to make various steamed rice, as well as Various rice grains purchased by myself, purple rice, black rice, yellow rice and so on.

The same goes for porridge, rice porridge, millet porridge... Xie Shu also cut pumpkin, purple sweet potato, etc., which are also used to make porridge.Looking at the raw materials of the bags of eight-treasure porridge, Xie Shu always felt nostalgic.

When I was young, my mother would also buy this kind of prepared eight-treasure porridge with rock sugar in it.Although Jie Shu was not that fond of eight-treasure porridge when he was a child, he liked to look for rock candy in the grains and beans bought by his mother.Rock candy may be just ordinary sweetness, but the joy and results of exploration can make you feel relieved and excited all day long.And when my mother found out, she would just call her a "little clever ghost", and then add rock sugar to the porridge to make it sweeter.

Even if I come here, I will miss the time when I was a child from time to time. After all, "a happy childhood can heal a lifetime".Xie Shu smiled lightly, broke away from the harmonious family memories, and then continued to get busy.

……

On the other side of Shanghai, Xu Zhengyang is also busy. His family is not a wealthy family. In order to raise funds and hoard supplies, he has advanced and borrowed a lot of money, and even began to sell valuable items among sellers.

"Son, this is really not good. Although I don't know why you raised money, and you don't want to tell us, you just said there is no trouble, but this jade pendant is really not good." Sitting on the sofa, Xu Zhengyang's mother shook Shaking his head and preaching.

She was sensible and always supported her son's work and decisions, but this was the first time she had such a big conflict with Xu Zhengyang.

Xu Zhengyang's father was also at the side, but he didn't speak.When his son inexplicably started to use his family's ID cards and credit cards to make loan overdrafts without explaining, the two started a cold war because of discordant conversations.

Xu Zhengyang knew that it was normal for his parents not to understand him, but he couldn't help it. He knew his parents best. Although his parents were upright and simple, they were also superstitious, especially his mother. His mother did some messy things in the name of bewitching.

So Xu Zhengyang cut first and played later. Fortunately, his parents would still support him, and they agreed to his approach under his insistence.

But now even the mother's jewelry has been sold at home. It can be said that the only valuable item in the house is the last jade pendant.If it is not considered that the house is still needed to withstand future floods and rainstorms, perhaps even the house will have to be sold urgently.

Xu Zhengyang grew up in a well-behaved manner since he was a child, so that it was difficult for him to find other ways to make money quickly in a short period of time.Whether it was usury or any legally prohibited means of earning money, his good nature restrained him from defilement.What's more, if there is too much money, the few airtight cold storages he rents will not be able to store so many things.

"Mom, trust me, it's really urgent." Xu Zhengyang tried his best to persuade his mother to give up the jade pendant and sell it for money. "I really need this jade pendant to exchange for money, and time is running out." Today, the outside has begun to gather dark clouds, as if clamoring for an imminent disaster.But the officials obviously did not believe his statement, and even now there is no warning sign for the typhoon "Fenghuang", he can only rely on his negligible strength to prepare.

"Son, it's been many days. You have overdrawn my credit card and your dad's loan, and you didn't tell us anything when I asked you. This jade pendant was passed down from your grandma. This is really not good." Xu Zhengyang's mother looked Helpless and forbearing.But in the end, she couldn't resist Xu Zhengyang's repeated pleas. Facing this child who was reassuring since childhood, she still respected his decision.

A square mahogany box was finally placed in Xu Zhengyang's hands.After getting the box, Xu Zhengyang expressed his gratitude to his mother for her understanding and concession.

The lock on the box had signs of being old. Xu Zhengyang was trying to open it, but the rusty lock was hard to move. Xu Zhengyang wobbled and tried his best to open it.But accidentally, a small cut was made on the index finger.Although he felt the pain, he didn't bleed directly, so he didn't care. He didn't notice until after picking up the jade pendant, there was a trace of blood red behind the jade safety clasp of the ice species.

But after a flash of blood appeared, something miraculous happened, the blood seemed to be absorbed by the jade pendant.At this moment, a square space appeared in Xu Zhengyang's mind.There is a lot of space, Xu Zhengyang just roughly estimated that it is bigger than two football fields.In addition, from the moment he felt the space, Xu Zhengyang understood its usefulness.

This happened in front of my parents.No matter how superstitious they are, they have to believe some outrageous things.And this inherited jade pendant even made Xu Zhengyang doubt the authenticity of some superstitions.

But now is not the time to worry about this, looking at the surprised faces of his parents, Xu Zhengyang pursed his lips, and simply told all about his rebirth.After accepting such a big message all at once, although the two of them understood Xu Zhengyang's abnormality in the early stage, they were still shocked into silence for a long time.

"In that case, we will definitely support you with all our strength. Just do it." With the support of his parents, Xu Zhengyang left.He now needs to put all the materials in the cold storage into this space.
