After the Earthquake of Rebirth

When he woke up, the room was brightened by the light from the curtains, Ning Qiyan looked at the watch on the wall, it was already past noon.It's rare that Du Cheng next to him is still sleeping. It seems that he is really tired recently.

Ning Qiyan quietly dressed and walked out of the room.I have been busy these past few days, and I have no time to cook, so I almost always order takeaway.

Ning Qiyan boiled the porridge first, and then went to the yard to pick two crispy and tender cucumbers.Originally, I wanted to take a picture of a cucumber, but I was afraid that the noise would wake up Du Cheng, so I took a plate and put some sauce on it. The tender cucumber dipped in the sauce is also good.

Two fried eggs, a few slices of bacon, breakfast is done.

After washing his hands, Ning Qiyan turned around and saw Du Cheng leaning against the door and looking at the dining table. Although he still had a silent expression, Ning Qiyan could see the disgust in his eyes at a glance.

"When I wake up, I'll go wash up. I'll pad my stomach with these first. Let's go out and have a good meal later." Ning Qiyan ignored him and took a bowl of porridge.

Breakfast was finished in less than 10 minutes. Du Cheng was in charge of feeding the livestock, while Ning Qiyan went out of the space to check whether there was anything missing in the house for the last time, ranging from furniture and electrical appliances to small dishes, chopsticks, paper and pens. Those who left were all received by Ning Qiyan.

Even though we know that this place will not be destroyed by the earthquake, if we leave today and come back, it will probably be after the earthquake.What happened then, he could not say for sure.

By the time it was packed, it was past three o'clock in the afternoon.The two drove out of the community, and first went to the Japanese restaurant that Ning Qiyan had been thinking about for a long time.

Sashimi, sweet shrimp, ark shell...

A large table full of raw seafood made Du Cheng frown.

"Okay, just eat it this time, I've been coveting the dishes of this restaurant for a long time." Ning Qiyan poured a glass of sake for Du Cheng with a smile.

"Since you like to eat, why didn't you come here before?" Du Cheng stretched out his hand to block Ning Qiyan's movement of pouring wine for himself. After a while, Ning Qiyan will still be driving. Check, he doesn't want the two of them squatting in the traffic team when the earthquake tomorrow.

"It's too expensive. Don't look at the table, there are not many ice cubes on the plate. You will know when you pay the bill later. There is no two or three thousand yuan, and you can't get it down." Ning Qiyan followed Du Cheng put down the wine bottle and poured himself a cup of tea instead.He doesn't like wine, it doesn't matter if he drinks or not.

"I remember that your previous job had a monthly salary of more than [-]. You can afford it once in a while, and you still have savings at home, and you don't need to pay a mortgage. You can eat whatever you want. There is no need to be harsh on yourself."

Ning Qiyan swallowed a mouthful of fresh and sweet sashimi, shrugged, "Two or 3000 yuan is enough for my food expenses for a month. To put it bluntly, after eating it, I will be satisfied. If it wasn't for tomorrow... I'm not going to spend this kind of money."

Du Cheng was a little funny, but also a little sad.

This is the tragedy of being an orphan.I have never had pocket money, and I have to fight for food and clothing.So even when you grow up and have money, you will live your life carefully.Even if you want to eat something delicious, you have to weigh it up.

"I still have more than 4 yuan left. Do you want to buy some fruit and sashimi?" After eating and getting in the car, Du Cheng reached out to take out the money from the bag in the back seat.

Ning Qiyan just ate a little too much, and now he was too lazy to move, so he glanced sideways at the money in Du Cheng's hand.

"The refrigerator is full, and there is no place to put it when I buy it."

"Then buy another freezer." Anyway, the money is enough.

Ning Qiyan thought for a while, and finally shook his head, "Forget it, after eating this meal today, I won't want to eat Japanese food in a short time, and if it is fruit, it will take another half a month. The watermelon will be ripe, and I'm afraid I won't be able to eat it by then."

"Then keep the money?"

After debating for a while, Ning Qiyan started the car, "Why don't you buy more spirits, a sip will warm you up a lot in winter, and it can also disinfect the wound."

Du Cheng had no objection, and let Ning Qiyan drive to many convenience stores, where he bought various low-priced spirits in boxes.Finally, while it was still dark, the two drove to Longshan Park.

Longshan Park is located in the northwest of D City, with a large area. There are a large area of ​​cherry trees planted in the park. This time is when the cherry blossoms are in full bloom, so even if it is not a weekend, many people ask for leave and drag their families to camp in the park.So the two camped there to spend the last peaceful time tonight and tomorrow, and it would not be suspicious.

The most important thing is that there are no tall buildings in Longshan Park. As long as you stay away from trees, you will be relatively safe when an earthquake strikes.

After arriving at Longshan Park, Du Cheng went to buy a ticket first, and Ning Qiyan parked the car in the open-air parking lot near the exit.When Du Cheng bought the tickets, the two carried a big travel bag on their backs, Du Cheng carried the tent and an iron stove for barbecue in his hand, while Ning Qiyan symbolically carried a big foam box.

"When grilling, stay away from the grass and go to the designated barbecue spot." The aunt who checked the ticket reminded with a smile.

Ning Qiyan smiled and nodded, "Definitely, thank you for reminding me."

Auntie saw Ning Qiyan's appearance clearly and smiled even more happily.

When the two walked away, they could still hear the voices of the aunt and another ticket inspector behind them.

"Oh, that kid just now looks really good, and I don't know if he has a partner. Going to the park with friends to camp at night is much better than those bastards who only know how to go to nightclubs."

"Is your daughter still in high school? Are you in a hurry?"

"You don't know, there are more than one puppy love in my daughter's school. Last time I held a parent-teacher meeting..."

Ning Qiyan felt that the air pressure around Du Cheng was a bit low, and a smile flashed in his eyes.

The sky will be dark, the setting sun is slanting to the west, and the dim afterglow is against the woods and grasslands. When you turn a corner, you will see pink and white cherry blossom forests.

"It's so beautiful!" Ning Qiyan sighed.

Du Cheng remained silent, but there was admiration in his eyes.

Continue to walk along the winding stone road, shuttling through the cherry blossom forest, and after a while, you can gradually hear the sound of frolicking people.

When they finally passed through the cherry blossom forest, a circular garden made of marble about half the size of a football field unfolded in front of their eyes.

Because it is not a weekend, there are not many people in the garden.Three tents have already been set up and distributed in the garden, not far or close to each other.Most of the people sitting around the tent are families, men, women, old and young, in groups of four or five.In each group is a smoking oven.

"It seems that the two of us came late." Ning Qiyan pulled Du Cheng to find a place near the edge of the cherry blossom forest, put down his backpack and boxes, and the two of them worked together to set up the tent first.

Different from the other three brightly colored tents, Ning Qiyan and Du Cheng bought professional camping tents, with dark green tarpaulins and steel skeletons.After the whole tent is set up, it has an area of ​​nearly ten square meters, which is enough for two people to sleep and rest.

And as long as you are skilled, the whole tent is very easy to disassemble and install.

Ning Qiyan bought three of these tents at a time, but they were of different models. The largest one was 15 square meters, and the surrounding waterproof cloth was added with a layer of insulation, which was suitable for use in cold weather.The smallest one is only 6 square meters, which is a gift from the store when you buy medium and large sizes.

After the tent was set up, Du Cheng went out to set up the barbecue pit and started lighting charcoal.This kind of soft charcoal is not resistant to burning, but it is easier to ignite than hard charcoal. The two bought ten small boxes for barbecue.

Ning Qiyan used an air pump to inflate the inflatable cushion in the tent.The two-meter-by-two-meter inflatable cushions were filled and set aside, and then the bedding was taken out from the space and thrown on.Finally, hang the charging light on the top of the tent.

"The charcoal is ready, let's take out the things." Du Cheng opened the tent door.

"So fast?" Ning Qiyan was a little surprised. He remembered that the outdoor barbecues organized by his unit did not light any charcoal within an hour or two.

He stepped into the space, took out the prepared skewers from the refrigerator, put them in the foam box, and pulled out the tent.

The sky has not yet completely darkened, but the street lights near the garden have been turned on, reflecting that the garden is brightly lit.

After the first batch of mutton skewers were grilled, Ning Qiyan drove Du Cheng aside and let him eat first.Du Cheng didn't eat much except for two rice balls at the restaurant before, and now he was very hungry, so he didn't argue with Ning Qi, so he sat on a small mazza that cost ten yuan each and started eating.

"I would have brought Du Dabao out if I knew it earlier." Ning Qiyan was grilling the squid, looking at the pet dog who ran past them for the third time, and muttered to Du Cheng.

Du Cheng looked up at the Dalmatians not far away who was throwing a ball, and said nothing.

It will be messy after the earthquake tomorrow, people can't take care of it, but can they take care of dogs?If Du Dabao got lost, Ning Qiyan might be in a hurry!

That's all Ning Qiyan said, he was still not at ease if he really wanted to take Du Dabao through the earthquake.

When Du Cheng was almost done eating, he replaced Ning Qiyan.At this moment, both of them are seven to eighty percent full, and occasionally grill a few skewers over the charcoal fire, without talking, simply enjoying the last tranquility.
