Chapter 541: Chapter 417: Hoarding a Myriad of Supplies for a Disaster, I’m Slacking Off on Raising My Kid 5_3
Su Zhiruan, seeing this, searched through the pile of clothes she had bought for a long ti and found a military overcoat. “Put it on, it’s getting cold.”
At the ti, to avoid attracting attention, Su Zhiruan said she was running a clothing wholesale business, and she took a lot of n’s and won’s clothing, especially thick clothes.
The young man had been wondering why there were so many winter clothes, but after putting on the overcoat, he suddenly had an answer, so he walked over to Su Zhiruan and stood shoulder to shoulder with her. “Did you… know in advance that the weather would change?”
“I didn’t know,” Su Zhiruan gathered her coat around her and shook her head. “It might be a coincidence.”
Wen Qingyu, seeing that she didn’t want to talk about it, considerately didn’t continue to inquire.
After watching for a while, Su Zhiruan suddenly thought of sothing and turned around to poke him. “Which floor do you want to live on? There are three floors here, and plenty of rooms. You can choose for yourself.”
“I want to live in the room next to yours,” he said, his narrow eyes looking towards Su Zhiruan a bit uncomfortably. “Is that okay?”
Su Zhiruan laughed. “Good choice! No need to climb stairs, and you can escape quickly, plus it’s close to the kitchen. It seems we really see eye to eye!”
Soon, Su Zhiruan took him downstairs, put thick blankets and down comforters in the room next to hers, and placed two electric heaters she had bought before.
There was still power, and after the electric heaters were turned on for a while, the room beca warm and cozy.
She took out two thick mattresses, several soft pads, and super-thick down comforters. “These are for you, curling up in the comforters during winter is the happiest thing!”
The temperature continued to plumt.
Just a mont ago it was only ten degrees below zero, but when Su Zhiruan returned to her room, she was so cold that she couldn’t even stretch out her legs.
She imdiately did the sa, turned on the electric heater, curled up in the soft down comforter, wearing just a simple nightgown, and holding a mobile phone.
Outside the building, the cold wind howled, and with the sudden drop in temperature, the well-growing trees and plants couldn’t withstand the blow, so even breaking off at the trunk, while flowers and grasses were frozen to death.
At this mont, all of Jinghua was in turmoil.
Although there had been talk in recent days about the apocalypse coming, most people were ordinary laborers, renting hos in Jinghua, trying to support their families through nial work.
The sudden drop in temperature caught everyone off guard.
Those who reacted didn’t care about anything else and imdiately went downstairs to hoard goods from supermarkets, and the 24-hour convenience stores were overcrowded.
On short video websites, various videos erged one after another, and many people started guessing.
[In my opinion, this is the coming of the apocalypse!]
[They always talked nonsense before, I didn’t believe it then, but now I believe it all, I’ve been humbled, please let us off!]
[Alright, stop talking, hurry up and go out to buy stuff! Otherwise, in a mont, everything might be sold out!]
…
All of Jinghua, and even the whole country, was in chaos.
Even the higher-ups were alard and hastened to reassure the public.
The blizzard roared, and people carrying bags big and small walked on the roads in cloth shoes, quickly getting subrged to their calves in snow, but no one cared about these anymore, they just thought about hurrying ho with their belongings.
Jinghua had a large population, but there were very few convenience stores open in the wee hours, and many people, for themselves and their families, broke into supermarkets with a heavy heart.
At this ti, the people with the smallest crisis were probably those living in their old hos in the countryside.
Families in the countryside often stocked up on food and were self-sufficient on ordinary days. When disaster struck, they lost a season’s crops, but they still had enough food supply.
Different from these busy people were two households.
One was Su Zhiruan and Wen Qingyu, who were well-prepared and lay in soft bedding, playing with their mobile phones in the warmth of electric heaters after washing up.
The other was Su Mingzhu’s parents, Su Father and Su Mother, who, after a workout drenched in sweat, didn’t know what the future held. They had all been drinking to celebrate Su Mingzhu’s birthday, and now they were all passed out drunk.
Su Zhiruan, after seeing this scene on the monitor, turned off her mobile phone again.

When Su Father and Su Mother and the rest of the family woke up the next day, it was almost as if the sky had collapsed!
Su Mother, shivering with cold and cursing continuously, said, “What the hell is wrong with this damned weather? It turned so cold so suddenly, and such heavy snow, oh my, the snow has buried our house!”
“Mom, Dad… what do we do… I, I had plans with young master Gu, can’t we leave the house today?” Su Mingzhu cried and sobbed. Seeing the doors and windows completely covered, she panicked.
“Alright, stop crying!” Su Father was also bewildered, but to assert his dignity as head of the family, he walked around with his beer belly and said, “Just call for rescue, what’s there to cry about!”
