Chapter 111(1/2)
Chapter 111
After getting off the boat, the soldiers and their families separated.
The soldiers lined up a long-distance car that looked like they were going to run a long distance and went directly to the troops they assigned to.
The family members got on a truck with a cabin under the organization of cadres sent from another regiment.
The weather in July is extremely hot.
Although the truck with a tent blocked the scorching sun, the carriage was so stuffy that it was like a steamer because the air was not circulating.
But these are nothing to the families who stay on the island all year round, especially the children.
They almost all squeezed to the rear of the car, looking out from the open position.
If it weren't for the cadres who led the team to keep a close eye on them, those little guys who were not afraid of being afraid would want to stick out half of their bodies and go out.
In fact, there was no big difference between the last time Yin Xiaoman came outside.
Except for the fields on both sides of the road that are now green and the crops look good, the others are dirt roads that are endless to see.
But even children have never seen such dirt roads. The roads on the island are turning in a curve, so where is it so long?
In addition, they had just slept on the boat and missed the wish they had been thinking about for a long time and looked at the sea from the boat... The little guys have gained a memory now, their eyes are wide open, and they are unwilling to miss a novel scene.
When I came last time, Yin Xiaoman felt that the road was very long, but this time, I walked for more than two hours, but it seemed like I had arrived in a blink of an eye.
Their group was arranged to move into the guesthouse.
Because this time is equivalent to wartime, everyone is busy with disaster relief, and there is no working group to inspect and investigate.
There were only less than twenty of them in the entire guesthouse, so the residence was extremely spacious.
Yin Xiaoman and the other two divided the two rooms, she took Erniu to live in one room, and Dabao took two small ones to live in one room.
The group is considerable to take good care of them.
Although the team leader had already gone to the disaster area with the disaster relief team, he had made arrangements in advance.
He specifically told him that there was a special person to deliver food every day, and that they were allowed to move freely within the demilitarized zone of the regiment headquarters.
Yin Xiaoman never dared to think about such treatment before. You must know that when she and Qiao Mai came last time, they didn’t even leave the door of the health center for half a month.
As expected, the lunch was delivered by Zhou Tiancheng and Lu Li and his wife.
Speaking of which, this is the first time the children have met with their cousin and aunt, although they have been extremely familiar with each other before.
That day, the couple did not rush back after delivering the meal, but stayed behind the whole family for a while to talk.
Lu Li also went back to the kitchen team in the middle and brought all the snacks she had prepared in advance.
It caused four little guys to surround her. My aunt was long and my aunt was short, and her little mouth was as if she had been smeared with honey.
But Zhou Tiancheng told Yin Xiaoman about something bad.
Zhou Tiancheng told her that because the disaster situation in City E was too serious, he is now working hard to fight the earthquake and rescue the disaster.
Everything else must make way for disaster relief.
Nowadays, whether it is on roads or railways, they mainly transport disaster relief materials and disaster relief personnel, and other civilian transportation tools have basically been suspended.
It’s hard to say when they can go to the capital now.
According to the best estimate, waiting for ten days and half a month is normal, and it is very likely to be more time.
Zhou Tiancheng asked them to prepare for a long-term waiting.
When I was on the island, I was busy moving and even though I heard about the earthquake in City E, it was not only Yin Xiaoman, but also their families did not feel much.
At this moment, after listening to Zhou Tiancheng's words, they suddenly realized that the disaster was so serious.
"Brother, what is going on? Tell us about it."
They are all family members, and Yin Xiaoman is not too prepared.
After hearing her question, Zhou Tiancheng told them what he knew.
But even these filtered information makes people feel so heavy that it cannot be described.
After a while, Yin Xiaoman spoke: "Brother, who is in charge in the group now?"
"Police Li, what's wrong? Is there anything wrong?"
Zhou Tiancheng asked a little strangely.
"Brother, can you help us talk to Deputy Li? We also want to join the disaster relief ranks.
Anyway, I can't leave for a while, so we are here and you have to send special personnel to take care of us.
Now that the group is so busy, we are all part of the group, and this is what we should do.”
She thought for a while and continued, "Dabao and Erniu have been cooking for the expert group. The leaders in this group should know that it is okay for us to go to the kitchen class to help, right?
Including Li Fang, she was also a kitchen class when she was on the island, and I think she could do it too.
You just said that the people in the kitchen are busy preparing dry food for the soldiers who are helping the disaster.
We can do pancakes and steamed buns.
No matter how good it is to choose vegetables, it is necessary to wash vegetables, right?”
Zhou Tiancheng never expected that the end of the chat would lead to such a result.
This time he came here really just to see his cousin's family, and he had no other ideas.
But he could understand Yin Xiaoman’s idea. Now, who doesn’t want to contribute more to disaster relief?
Since they said this, the couple did not stay much. Lu Li went back to work, while Zhou Tiancheng went directly to the regiment headquarters.
Yin Xiaoman was not idle either. She went to the house next to her and asked Li Fang and several other family members to have a small meeting.
This time, all the members of the army were from the army, and they were not much different in age.
After Yin Xiaoman reposted Zhou Tiancheng's words and said the disaster, everyone was as shocked and uncomfortable as before.
There were also two younger daughters-in-law who cried on the spot.
So when Yin Xiaoman proposed to work in the group, no one gave up and wanted to take action immediately.
It was her and Li Fang who held these people down together, and everyone discussed the division of labor.
No matter what, they were brought by their families. When the adults went to work, some people had to take care of the little guys.
In the end, they decided to leave a young wife who was still breastfeeding and let her stay in the guesthouse to watch out for the children and luggage. The others went to the regiment headquarters with Yin Xiaoman.
Because Zhou Tiancheng had already gone to say hello in advance, and when he heard that they were coming, Deputy Commander Li ran out to greet him in person.
And according to their personal circumstances, they were arranged to work in the kitchen and sewing team respectively.
After all, in addition to preparing dry food, the group also took on the task of sewing winter clothes and winter quilts for the people in the disaster area.
Zhou Tiancheng said that they may stay in the group for ten days and half a month.
But no one expected that this stay would have passed in about two months.
When Deputy Li personally informed them that a batch of supplies in the group would be transported to the disaster area afterwards and asked them to prepare to follow the car, the families were in a daze for a long time before they realized-
It turned out that they were just staying here temporarily and still had to leave.
At this moment, everyone was anxious.
Because they went down the island in July, although they knew that the climate in the capital was different from here, it was summer, so no one thought about preparing any thick clothes.
But now it’s the end of September, even in Ningcheng, I have to wear long-sleeved clothes sooner or later. So when I arrive in the capital, wouldn’t I have to wear a jacket or even a thin cotton jacket?
But no one of these people is prepared at home!
When Vice Tuan Li heard about this situation, he also realized the seriousness of the matter.
Let’s not talk about how much work these families have worked hard in the group in the past two months, even ordinary people have not made everyone feel frozen on the road.
So he personally went to the textile factory. After consulting with the leaders there, he specially approved some cloth and cotton, and arranged for two sewing teams to work overtime with them. Then he drove everyone's cotton coats out before leaving.
I got into the car again and left the camp.
Only then did everyone realize that although they had lived in the security regiment for two months, they did not even step out of the army gate.
No one can tell what Ningcheng looks like.
Although the earthquake has been several months, traffic is still severely congested.
The closer you are to the capital, the more congested it is.
People all over the country are doing their best to bring warmth to the disaster area.
The disaster area and the capital are on the same road.
While on the way, Yin Xiaoman had already separated from other families. Later, even Li Fang and his family said goodbye to them the first day and went to the new army they were going to.
In the end, except for the soldiers escorting supplies, there was only Yin Xiaoman's family left in the car.
By this time, Yin Xiaoman had actually known that the place they were going to was not the capital.
What they were going to is Jincheng, which is about 100 kilometers away from the capital.
