Tang Jiajia looked at the road conditions and prayed in his heart for them to arrive smoothly. God seemed to have heard his prayers. They moved little by little, and finally entered the urban area of ​​City C at around [-] o'clock in the morning. Although it was still slow, it was Time is much better.There are many workers on both sides of the road, who are spreading salt to melt ice, and due to the urban heat island effect, the freezing situation has been greatly reduced.

When they entered City C, ice particles began to fall, and the falling became bigger and bigger, hitting the ground with a clatter.The off-road wipers kept swinging, and a lot of ice particles stuck to the windshield, and the surface was scratched a lot, but I couldn't care less.

At this time they were passing through the urban area, and the urban area at this time was not like the early morning at all, the road was full of cars, and the traffic police were also evacuating the traffic.Obviously feeling that the temperature is getting colder and colder, Zhao Yixuan also had to turn up the heating. The gas station is also full at this time. I don't know how long this situation will take. There are only two spare bottles of gasoline in the car.

"I haven't encountered such weather in so many years." Tang Jiajia has never encountered such a situation in City C for so many years.

"If this kind of extreme weather happens every year, the earth will be destroyed." Zhao Yixuan was still in the mood to joke.

Zhao Yixuan drove the car through the city, and the traffic became less and less. With super high driving skills, he returned to Canada safely.Tang Jiajia watched in horror along the way. There was an overturned minibus on the side of the road. The bus was empty. Under the dim light of the street lamps, it was particularly creepy.

It was past three o'clock when they returned to Tangjia Village. Tang Jiajia finally breathed a sigh of relief. Tang's parents and mothers kept the door open, and once they entered the house, they felt much warmer.Tang Jiajia entered the room and saw that the quilts on the bed were clean and fresh, and the quilts were covered with quilts, which did not feel cold to the touch. She was grateful to her parents for their care.Tang Jiajia took off Apple's clothes, put the little man under the quilt, and sat beside the bed for a while.

Zhao Yixuan Zhao Yixuan saw that there was still a pot of water on the stove at home. He opened the lid of the pot, and there was steam coming out. He took a small washbasin for apples from the bathroom, poured hot water, wet the towel, walked into the room, and saw Sitting by the bed, Tang Jiajia smiled and passed the towel over. Tang Jiajia took the warm towel and gently wiped Apple's face and hands.Pingguo was disturbed and frowned, but after Tang Jiajia stopped, he stretched his brows again and continued to sleep soundly.

Zhao Yixuan and Tang Jiajia took turns kissing Apple's plump and fair forehead, and then walked out of the room together.Tang Jiajia thought that Zhao Yixuan had been driving for a day and hadn't eaten anything seriously, so she thought about going to the kitchen and ordering noodles or something for him. Zhao Yixuan said that it would be fine to just make some. Tang Jiajia washed his hands with the remaining hot water , Opened the refrigerator and found that there were tomatoes and eggs in it, and dried noodles in the cupboard, so I quickly ordered the noodles.

In about ten minutes, the noodles were cooked. Tang Jiajia took two large bowls, filled them with two bowls of noodles and put them on the table. They were steaming hot, and they looked delicious.Zhao Yixuan and Tang Jiajia were sitting opposite each other. He looked at the bowl of steaming noodles in his hand, then at Tang Jiajia, and stared at each other's black eyes, which shone with warmth, "It's good to have you!" Tang Jiajia's eyes also Responding to the same warmth, Zhao Yixuan was intoxicated with starry eyes, "Hurry up and eat, it will be cold later."

Zhao Yixuan took the chopsticks and ate the noodles in big mouthfuls, but after a few mouthfuls, the house went dark and the power went out.The eyes of the two couldn't adjust for a while, and they fumbled to turn on the phone, and then there was a little light.

Tang Jiajia felt so unlucky, why the power went out at this time, "What's the matter, the power went out, did the safe trip?"

Zhao Yixuan got up and checked the safe with the light on his mobile phone, but it didn't trip.He stood by the window again and saw the toll booth not far away, but there was no light on, only the solar street lights were still on, but it was very dim.

Zhao Yixuan turned his head, frowned and said, "It should be a power outage, and there is no power anywhere else."

Faced with this situation, Tang Jiajia was also very helpless. "There are candles at home, and it is inconvenient to light candles and use a mobile phone."

Tang Jiajia got up and lit the candle, while Zhao Yixuan lit the light with his mobile phone.After Tang Jiajia found the candle, she took out a small plate from the kitchen, lit the candle, put two drops of wax on the plate, put the candle on it, and put it in the middle of the table. The candle was full of flames.

Tang Jiajia looked at the candlelight and smiled, "Okay, let's have a candlelight dinner."

Zhao Yixuan also responded with a smile, "Yeah, the timing of the power outage is just right. Let us both have a candlelight dinner. Do you want to celebrate and have a toast?"

Under the light of the candlelight, the two childish ghosts clinked glasses with hot water, and then took another sip. It was warm and very comfortable.

After eating noodles, the two of them were going to take a bath. Fortunately, their parents had already turned on the water heater to boil hot water before going to bed, but now that the electricity was out, both of them took a battle bath, and the hot water was just enough.After taking a hot bath, the two of them were warm and lying on the bed. It was so comfortable that Tang Jiajia stretched out, and Zhao Yixuan felt much more relaxed. The whole family hugged each other and slept warmly on the bed. Did not notice any abnormal changes outside the window.

C City, this small but important transportation hub city, an unpredictable natural disaster is quietly coming, and it only took midnight to paralyze the transportation of most of the country.

Both Tang Jiajia and Zhao Yixuan got up late because they went to bed too late, and Tang's parents and Tang's mother knew that they came back late so they didn't call them.Apple woke up and saw that the fathers were still soundly asleep, got dressed by themselves, quietly climbed out of bed, and went to brush their teeth and wash their faces by themselves.

Seeing that it was snowing outside, Apple wanted to go out to play, but Mama Tang stopped her. She wrapped Apple in a scarf, put on a small hat, and changed into a pair of shoes that were not easy to get wet before taking her out. She took the lentils to the first floor Go pick it, watch the apples play, and don't allow him to go elsewhere.

Tang Ma looked at the ice strips hanging from the eaves, which were much thicker than usual. A small tree planted in front of the house was not going to work, and the branches were broken by the hanging ice.When I woke up this morning, I found that there was no electricity. Dad Tang checked the wiring at home and found that there was no problem. When he went out, he found that a utility pole in the village had fallen down, and many wires were covered with thick ice. They were overwhelmed and were all broken and scattered on the ground. , no wonder there is no electricity.I don't know what happened this year. The freezing was so severe that the old people in the village said that it had never happened like this before. They notified people to come to repair it, but no one came.

Tang Jiajia and Zhao Yixuan didn't wake up until almost noon. After a good night's sleep, they felt much better. After tidying up and leaving the room, Tang's father was already busy in the kitchen, while Tang's mother and Apple were sitting around the warming table, playing with puzzles.

"Daddy, big daddy!" Apple looked at the two daddies with bright eyes.

Tang Jiajia and Zhao Yixuan also sat down. Tang Jiajia looked at the puzzle pieces on the table and asked, "Why are you so good today and didn't watch cartoons?"

Apple pursed her lips, tilted her head, and snorted, "I'm very good every day!"

Tang's mother looked at her grandson's look, and smiled, "The electric pole fell down, the wire broke, and the power has been out all morning."

"What's going on, why did the pole fall down, did it hurt anyone?" Tang Jiajia asked curiously.

"It probably fell at night. It was an old telephone pole. There was a thick layer of ice hanging on the wire, and it collapsed when it couldn't bear it, and the wire fell to the ground. Fortunately, it fell at night and no one was hurt." Tang's mother told her son the situation, and added, "However, many electric wires in the whole village are broken. A thin wire can form ice the size of a brick. There are hanging on the eaves of our house." After Mom finished speaking, she compared the sizes with her hands.

After Zhao Yixuan heard this, he went to the balcony, looked up and down, and sure enough there were thick icicles hanging there, worse than what he saw in the northeast.

Zhao Yixuan walked in and nodded to Tang Jiajia. Tang Jiajia was a little panicked, "Such severe freezing, then my greenhouse will be in trouble." Tang Jiajia hurriedly got up and wanted to go out.

Zhao Yixuan pulled him back and pressed him back on the sofa, "Don't worry, it's useless to worry now."

"That's right, he's always so frizzy. Look how calm Xiao Zhao is. Don't worry, your dad went to look at your shed in the morning. There's nothing wrong with it, but the other house has collapsed." Mother Tang said quickly.

Although Tang's mother said so, Tang Jiajia was worried, but dinner would be served soon, and the two of them went after eating.Along the way, Tang Jiajia found that all the flowers and plants on the side of the road were broken, the ice was broken all over the ground, and there were still ice cubes falling from under the trees, like stones falling down, all of them were as thick as turning heads. They all avoided the trees go.

When they arrived at the vegetable field, Tang Jiajia was relieved to see that her greenhouse was still in good condition.In fact, this is because Tang Jiajia's structure is scientific and reasonable, so it is not crushed by the ice. Moreover, the temperature of the greenhouse itself is high, and there will be no ice accumulation on the top. Only the exposed structure will show signs of freezing.

Tang Jiajia saw that there were still green seedlings in several greenhouses, and guessed that it should be the vegetable seeds grown by Tang Ma, and there was still a small piece of green vegetables growing, which he had to collect before, and Tang Ma said to save some for the New Year. Yes, so I kept it, it will be of great use now.

"If I had known earlier, I wouldn't have bought the vegetables so early, maybe the price would be even higher." Tang Jiajia looked regretful.

Zhao Yixuan comforted him, "It's not bad that we had such a profit in the first season, and this kind of weather is generally unpredictable. We are very lucky that we have no losses."

Tang Jiajia nodded, she really wanted to think so, and she had to be content.

Everyone thought that this situation would pass quickly, and the sun would melt away in just a few days.As a result, the snow stopped for one day, and it started to fall again the next day, and it was full of ice. Like the rain, the freezing became more and more serious. Tang Jiajia and Zhao Yixuan had to go to the greenhouse every day to de-ice.The family is also sweeping the snow on the roof of the building, fearing that they will not be able to bear the heavy pressure.

Because Tang Jiajia stayed in the country, she didn't think it was particularly serious, but Zhao Yixuan already knew that the situation in City C was already serious.The whole city cut off water and electricity, all the water pipes burst and froze, especially for people living in the urban area, their daily life is more difficult, the traffic from north to south is paralyzed in city c, and the supplies in the city are starting to be in short supply, prices are soaring, 30 yuan for a candle.Zhao Yixuan's branch in City C has already issued a notice that all employees are on holiday for their personal safety.

At this time, people in the countryside are much better off. Apart from the lack of electricity, they can be self-sufficient in food and rice, and those who go out to work have relatives to take care of them.When the tap water was no longer available, I picked well water as before, and the well water was still warm!People in the county town went to the nearby villages to dig wells for water.The inconvenient thing is traveling and making phone calls. No car dares to go. Everyone has to walk for more than an hour to go to the market, but because everyone is walking, it is still lively along the way.The mobile phone turned off automatically because there were no incoming calls, the signal towers were thickly covered with ice, and the signal was very poor.Tang Jiajia's cell phone still has some fuel, and Zhao Yixuan's car still has gas, so he can start the car to charge it, but it is only used for making calls, saving some battery.

Zhao Yixuan contacted his parents to reassure them, but the parents didn't seem to be in a hurry. After asking, they found out that they were relieved when they knew that he had arrived home safely. Moreover, it was reported that the traffic paralysis was serious, and there was no report of a shortage of supplies. matter.

Zhao Yixuan calmly told Father Zhao about the current situation in City C, and Father Zhao's eyebrows became serious. It seemed that someone had not reported the real situation to the higher-ups, and had concealed some information.
