Rebirth in the end times: The whole family keeps a low profile

As soon as Su Yun led Qiqi and Tangtang into the house, Su Zhangming pulled them over for questioning.

Why did you come back so early this year?

Why did you drive back in a Huolala car?

Why didn’t the BMW come back?

Did something happen?

His younger brother Su Zhangming kept asking Su Yun questions. He was also a very smart person. Su Yun came back yesterday by Huolala, and his unusual behavior during this period of time left him puzzled.

Facing the questioning looks from Su's father, Su's mother and Su Zhangming, and Su Yun's indescribable expression.

The whole family suddenly became nervous, fearing that Su Yun and the others were really in trouble.

So while his parents, younger brother, sister-in-law, and aunt Su were all there, he sent the children upstairs to watch TV. Everyone sat together. After making sure that there were no ears on the walls at home, Su Yun directly confessed about natural disasters and space. The five people were shocked at the beginning, but after Su Yun demonstrated the space storage method several times, they slowly accepted the theory of natural disasters.

Su Yun roughly recounted everything he could remember about what would happen after a natural disaster. When they learned that a natural disaster was about to strike and that Su Yun and his wife had already sold their house, car and company in Shenzhen to cash in on supplies, the family suddenly realized the seriousness of the problem.

Su Ma held Su Yun's hand, tears streaming down her face. She felt that her daughter had suffered too much in a place she didn't know about, especially when she heard that Su Yun had been looking for her family in various gathering places after she got separated from them. Not only had she been sleeping in the open air, but she had also become half blind, and was finally sold like a sheep. Su Ma felt a dull pain in her heart as if a huge stone was blocking it. No one else spoke at this time, just lowered their heads and wiped their tears.

After everyone calmed down, Su Yun comforted them: "Fortunately, I'm back, so this time we should work together and never separate again."

"If a natural disaster comes, will the world be in chaos?" Father Su asked the key question.

"It was fine the previous year, but after the flood, the world was in complete chaos. Except for the rescue base and the military management, there was basically no order in other places..."

Everyone in the Su family quickly accepted the theory of natural disasters within just one hour. They sat together to discuss how to deal with natural disasters, what else they needed to stockpile in addition to the supplies Su Yun had stockpiled, and how to maximize the use of space.

Finally, they came to the conclusion that since Su Yun and Wang Jie had taken care of the bulk of the supplies, they could just stock up on some of the things they liked. In order not to arouse suspicion from those around them, everyone should just do what they had to do as before and only stock up on supplies in secret. All the cash deposits in the family added up to more than 300 million, plus the more than 2000 million left by Su Yun, which added up to almost 7 million. This amount of money was not enough for the seven of them to stock up in one month.

Su Xiaogu has been renting a storefront in the town to sell economical fast food. She has the conditions to stock up on ingredients and prepared food. She cooks different dishes every day, packs them up, and has her brother Su Zhangming deliver them home through the back door of the fast food restaurant or Su Yun quietly puts them away. Fortunately, Su Zhangming often helps run errands and delivers meals and meat, so she doesn't attract other people's attention.

In addition to running errands, Su Zhangming is also responsible for purchasing various agricultural machinery and building materials. In case the house collapses after an earthquake, these building materials can be used to build a new house.

My sister-in-law is a primary school teacher in the town and has a lot of free time. She is responsible for customizing food in various semi-processed workshops in the town, including local rice noodles, glutinous rice cakes, tofu, bacon, Chinese sausage, rice dumplings, rice cakes, etc.

Su's father and mother still sell meat every day as before, but their main purpose is to keep most of the meat for themselves. In addition to beef and pork, they also privately collect mutton, chicken, duck and fish.

The Su family's business is doing well, and people from the county and the city often call to order meat. Each time, several hundred kilograms are packed and transported to the city by Huolala, so there is basically no difficulty in stockpiling meat.

Su Yun and Wang Jie were responsible for reinforcing and renovating the houses in the village and going out to the market to purchase various mountain products and agricultural products. This year of extreme cold was also the most important year for the Su family. This year they had to cook almost all of their future food.

The children are also preparing for winter vacation. When the time comes, the four children will work with Su Yun. They will gradually get in touch with things other than studying. Su Yun wants to slowly change the children's thinking and behavior habits in daily life. Let them not only learn to protect themselves and their families, but also learn many skills to deal with natural disasters.

After arranging everything, Su Zhangming came up and said jokingly, "The meatballs and peanut oil and rapeseed oil that we ordered some time ago are also ready. Did you plan these two things before? Humph, you said they were ordered from the grocery store. Now I understand, they are all for us to eat."

Su Ma slapped her on the head for her bashful look. Everyone knew that what the two had said before was just a cover. In order to ensure that everyone would not lack food and clothing in the future, the daughter even sold the company to stock up on supplies, so as a mother, she also had to work harder to stock up on supplies.

Su Zhangming was quite quick and finished all the things that had been ordered in just one month.

So he asked Su Zhang to start running errands tomorrow to secretly bring back the prepared meatballs and oil. Su Zhangming suddenly regretted not stocking up more meatballs and beef trotters. The shredded beef was already prepared and put in the freezer. Fortunately, he was greedy and ordered some more. He had originally planned to eat it at home during the New Year, and if he couldn't finish it, he would ask his sister to pack it up and take it away.

Su Yun couldn't help but give his younger brother a thumbs up. While the children were watching TV on the second floor, Su Xiaogu had already started tinkering with a small barbecue nearby. After a while, Wang Jie came back from the blacksmith's house. While discussing, everyone was cleaning up the meat that Su's father and mother had stored at the butcher stall during the day on the first floor. All the stock in the large freezer was taken out, sorted, cut into pieces, and vacuum-packed in bags. One vacuum bag held about 2 pounds of meat. It took 200 bags of beef and 120 bags of pork to empty the freezer. In front of the whole family, Su Yun once again demonstrated the magical storage function of space. It is really better to keep food fresh in space than in the refrigerator.

While working, chatting and eating the barbecue prepared by Su Xiaogu, the family was having a great time and were particularly motivated to work.

When Su's father finished his work and went to the kitchen to wash his hands, he said, "At present, there will be some leg meat or offal left in the afternoon after we slaughter two cows. From now on, we will only sell until two or three in the afternoon and come back to do more work. Some of the stored meat will be sent to your aunt's fast food restaurant to be cooked, and some will be washed and packaged like today. We will take advantage of the fact that there are many meat vendors in the farmers' market before the Spring Festival, so we can also stock up some more meat."

"Then you send the meat to the store, and I will prepare the side dishes, make some stir-fried and braised meat, and my younger brother and sister will come over every day to help transport it back home." Aunt Su felt that she could give full play to her cooking skills.

Su Yun also chimed in: "Then I will come back every night to collect the things you have stockpiled during the day. Everyone should put them in the small room on the first floor and arrange them in categories. If you want to collect other supplies, just say so in the WeChat group at home so that everyone knows what each other has stockpiled. Personal items should be packed in storage boxes and write your name and the name of the item on the outside of the box. This way, if you want to find something in the future, you can just find the corresponding box. It will be more convenient. When our family returns to the village in the future, we will have to go through the open road to get the things we need for eating, drinking, defecating and urinating. So during this period of stockpiling, we have to find an excuse to spread the news to the villagers that Wang Jie's company can't continue and he owes a lot of money, so he will return to the village to live. This will at most make others watch the fun, but it is a good excuse for us to stockpile goods and repair the house on a daily basis."

"If you bring your children back to live in the village, people will inevitably talk about you, so you can only bear with it. When you have time, go to the back mountain often to pick up some firewood. In the future, when there will be water and power outages, you must be prepared. If the extreme cold really comes, there will not be enough firewood on the mountain. Even if we have stockpiled charcoal, we still have to symbolically bring back more firewood to get by." Dad Su wiped his hands, took out the notebook that the Su family usually used for accounting, and began to write.

Han Zhangming nodded in agreement: "I know a few timber mill owners and we can get a few more truckloads of waste wood. When I'm not busy, I'll go back and help my brother-in-law reinforce the house. I'll do what I can."

"It's good enough that you don't run around everywhere. You go out drinking every night. I'm really afraid that you will tell others about the space and the natural disaster." Zhang Lili was very worried that Su Zhangming would continue to brag after drinking like before.

"I promise to quit drinking from now on, and I won't go out to eat either. I will just hang out with you guys every day, and if anyone needs me, just tag me in the group." Su Zhangming usually has a lot of friends, and all kinds of friends like to invite him to dinner and brag, because he is generous, loyal, and doesn't know how to refuse others.

"If you can really quit drinking, I'll cook a few more of your favorite dishes for you every day!" Aunt Su didn't quite believe that Su Zhangming could quit drinking.

Su Zhangming was a real foodie, and he immediately ordered the menu: "Auntie, I want to eat pig intestines, rice noodles, braised pork, and braised chicken legs..."

Before she could finish her words, Su's mother slapped her on the head: "You need to lose weight, otherwise when an earthquake comes, you will be the only one in the family who can't run. In the future, you can only drink at home. If you dare to go out to drink, don't come home."

When Zhang Lili saw Su Zhangming being humiliated, she pinched Su Zhangming's swimming ring next to her with disgust, indicating that she agreed with her mother-in-law's words.

It was Thursday, the 29th day after the natural disaster rebirth. The entire network exploded early in the morning. The epidemic in the state capital could no longer be concealed. Several major platforms were frantically spreading related videos. Not only did the virus break out on a large scale, but it was also spreading at a rate of more than 5000 new cases per day. And these are just the numbers revealed by the media. The real numbers are far more than that. Many people in the surrounding areas have been sealed off for more than two months, and the number of hospitalizations and deaths has also reached historical highs. The roads in the state capital have been completely sealed off, and all vehicles are prohibited from entering and leaving. The entire East Province is in a panic, and even in nearby cities, all kinds of bright red water barriers can be seen everywhere in the streets and alleys overnight.

Su Yun opened the homeowners group on his mobile phone. His former neighbors all said in panic that they now have to take tests every day when entering and leaving the community, as if they had returned to the year when the virus first began to spread, making them feel very insecure.

They don't know that in a while, not only will they not be able to go out on the streets at will, even the errand boys outside basically dare not go home. Once they go home, they will be locked up at home and unable to go out. In order to earn more money, most errand boys will stay overnight in public areas outside. In order to ensure that the errand boys do not become indirect links of infection, the government has forcibly persuaded those who ride electric bikes to run errands on the streets to leave, and at that time they can only eat whatever the community workers deliver.

A few good neighbors privately messaged Su Yun: "Ayun, it's a good thing you reminded me to stock up. I bought a few bags of rice and took them home, and stocked up on a lot of snacks and meat dishes for the children."

Professor Yang's wife next door: "Sister Yun, we returned safely to our hometown in Guicheng yesterday. We were complaining about coming back too early, but we didn't expect this to happen. It's all thanks to you. Thank you!"

Su Yun had a good impression of those who were willing to believe in her. Besides, Professor Yang's family had a good relationship with her family before, so she was particularly willing to say a few more words: "Sister Li, if you believe me, you should go out and buy more food to keep at home. The more the better. Buy more of those that can be kept for a long time. I think this virus is not simple."

Professor Yang's wife is Sister Li. She works as a senior consultant in a bank and has plenty of money. She loves shopping and often shares with Su Yun some of her good skin care products and household items. She also likes to share delicious food at home.

Sister Li quickly showed her husband the words Su Yun had just typed. Professor Yang was skeptical, and felt that what Su Yun said was a little weird: "It's not possible. We are at least 1000 kilometers away from the outbreak area. It won't be so contagious."

"It's both right and wrong to think this way. What if someone carrying the virus comes to our place by car? Then the disease will spread from one to ten and from ten to a hundred. Now that people have reminded us, we should at least go out and buy some things. We have to buy things for the New Year anyway." Sister Li was actually skeptical, but she was a typical shopaholic who would normally fill up her cupboards with paper towels.
