see you in spring

Chapter 68 Family
Jia Lie's call to Sun Yan failed, so he turned around and called Han Guyu again.

Han Guyu sang until his voice became hoarse last night and didn't go to bed right away. He went to bed and watched dramas until about two o'clock in the morning. He couldn't stand it anymore, so he fell asleep.

It was around eight o'clock in the morning, when she was sleeping soundly, when the phone rang, she pressed it down irritably, tilted her head, and continued to sleep.

Neither Sun Yan nor Han Guyu answered the phone. Jia Lie was upset and took two steps back and forth in the room. His phone vibrated and a message came in.

This is a message sent by the property management group, saying that Jincheng will be closed at 24:[-] today, all shops will be closed, and all communities will gradually implement closed management.

Jia Lie didn't expect that the situation would develop so quickly, that even a huge city like Jincheng would be closed down.

She opened the door and hurried out of the living room, and said to Dongqing who was watching cartoons with her children: "Jincheng will be closed tonight, you may not be able to go back."

Dongqing was stunned for a few seconds. He had read the news before and learned that after Wucheng was closed, he speculated that the surrounding counties and cities might also follow suit.After all, HIV can be transmitted from person to person. As long as the patient sneezes, coughs, or talks, the droplets or exhaled gas are directly inhaled by people at close range, which can cause infection;

Even if they are not at close range, the patient's droplets mix in the air and form aerosols, which can cause infection after being inhaled by the next person who breathes them. This is the so-called aerosol transmission.

Even if these droplets are deposited on the surface of objects, contact with contaminated hands, and then contact with mucous membranes such as the mouth, nose, eyes, etc., can also lead to contact infection.

Based on these modes of infection, when Wucheng's medical staff failed to completely control the epidemic in Wucheng, it was normal for surrounding counties and cities to follow suit.But he didn't expect that Jincheng, a super big city more than 2000 kilometers away from Wucheng, would also be closed down.

Dongqing panicked for a few seconds, then quickly calmed down, as if comforting Jia Lie, but also comforting herself: "A city as big as Jincheng probably won't be closed for long. After all, there will be a wave of rework in a few days, Jincheng 40.00 % of the population are immigrants. If the city is kept closed, people from outside can’t come in and people inside can’t get out. It’s unrealistic from the perspective of economic development. Besides, doctors from all over the country are rushing to Wucheng. As long as there are If the situation can be alleviated, the lockdown in Jincheng should be lifted soon. I guess it will be almost the same by the time our quarantine is over."

This is all Dongqing's speculation, no one knows what will happen.But Jia Lie didn't say this out loud, but responded dully: "Okay, I'll call Jia Ling to ask about the situation in my hometown and find out what's going on with my father-in-law."

Dongqing nodded thoughtfully: "Thank Jia Ling and Xiao Yang for me."

Jia Lie turned around and went back to the room, dialed his sister's phone, and told her that Dongqing wanted to go back after the quarantine, but he didn't expect Jincheng to be closed down.

"Tell your brother-in-law not to come back yet. Xiao Yang has arranged all the nannying matters here. I received news here that the Dutch city will also be closed tomorrow. I don't know when the lockdown will be lifted. Xiao Yang and I I have already bought my ticket and I have to leave tonight. I'm afraid that if I stay any longer, I won't be able to get back to work in time. I was just about to call you to talk about this, but I didn't expect you to call me first."

Jia Lie didn't expect that Heshi, a city with few foreign residents, would be closed down. She quickly asked her parents about the situation there.

Jia Ling was also very angry when she talked about it, and complained directly to Jia Lie: "Do you think people of my parents' generation are really keeping in good health or are they fake? When I was fine before, I always forwarded various health tips in the circle of friends and family groups. The secret is that I often read WeChat articles and call them as soon as possible to tell them what to eat and what not to eat. They also often tell us to go to bed early and get up early. We are all amazed by how much we cherish our lives. But people who cherish their lives so much have no regard for the new coronavirus They didn't take the virus seriously and asked them to wear masks. They didn't say it didn't matter in small cities. They just said that their old friends said that this small virus was not a big deal and they kept insisting on me not wearing a mask. I was so angry that I didn't even know how to argue with them. We called them so many times, and finally asked the staff of the neighborhood committee to tell them the seriousness of the matter on WeChat, and they put on masks when they went out."

Just by listening to it, Jia Lie could imagine how stubborn his parents were.She said helplessly: "I can't help the family much now. You can only work harder and take more care of your parents."

"Mom and dad, don't worry about it. Just take care of your little family. We can rest assured that my brother-in-law is fine, but we don't have many masks here. Now I can only ask my parents to go out as little as possible. My little one and I Yang has already thought about it. After we start working, we will send them some daily necessities and vegetables every day, so that parents don’t have to go out."

With his older sister taking care of his parents in his hometown, Jia Lie really feels at ease.I used to be ignorant when I was young, and I always felt that after having an extra sister, parents’ love, toys, candies, and even hair ties should be divided.

As for the only child in another family, he can get the love of his parents and can monopolize everything in the house.She used to be extremely envious of those only children, but now, she is grateful that her parents gave her such a good sister.

"By the way, if your parents don't have enough money, remember to tell me." Since you can't contribute, you should contribute more money.

"Sister, you just bought a new house. Jincheng is no better than your hometown. Everything is more expensive in first-tier cities, and house prices are even more horrifyingly expensive. My brother-in-law is not working now, so it will be difficult for you to pay off the mortgage by yourself. Don't worry about your parents. , there is me. Besides, my parents also have a pension, although it is not much, it is enough in the small city of my hometown."

"Okay, if you need anything, call me. Although I'm not in my hometown, there are still many classmates working there, and they might be able to help."

After hanging up the phone, Jia Lie transferred some money to her parents. She was grateful for her family's consideration, but as children, she still had to fulfill her responsibilities.

Jia Lie called his parents in the house, and Dongqing also called her father in the living room.

After telling my father about the closure of Jincheng, the old man was silent for a few seconds: "So, you can't come back?"

"...No, I can go back to see you when the epidemic gets better and the lockdown is lifted."

"It wasn't closed until early tonight. Why don't you buy a ticket and come back now?" The old man said in an unhappy tone. People are particularly vulnerable when they are sick and injured. Plus, they don't know about Dongqing's isolation. It's a great time to watch other people's families reunite during the Chinese New Year. , he especially missed his son, that's why he wanted his son back so much.

"Dad, I really can't leave now." Dongqing knew that Jia Lie didn't tell his dad about the quarantine, and of course he didn't want his dad to worry.

The old man became anxious when he heard this: "Your father and I have been hit like this, what urgent matter do you have to leave? Do you want to wait until your father dies before you have time to come back?"

The old man didn't understand. Ever since his son took root in the big city, he didn't want to come back, not to mention once a year, not even once every two years.Normally, he would forget about it, but now he was hit by a car and his son was unwilling to come back to see him. How could he not be angry that his son was raised in vain.

"Dad, don't get angry. The new coronavirus is very serious outside now, and you are not allowed to just take a car or fly."

"Holly, I'm just old, not stupid. I heard from the person in the next bed today that his daughter flew back today. Now you are telling me that you are not allowed to fly casually? Okay, I know you don't want to come back. My father is also dispensable to you, so just treat me as dead and leave me alone."

Listening to his father's rage on the phone, Dongqing was as big as two. He was not a good liar in the first place. In the end, he had no choice but to tell the truth: "Dad, that's not what I meant. I... contact The confirmed patient was quarantined."
