Chapter 2367 Doomsday Survival Competition 29
The next day, the instructor found Xining and said that there was a shortage of traditional Chinese medicine doctors in the resettlement site. After all, with the electricity shortage now, testing equipment has a limited quota every day.
Xining understood what the instructor meant and spread his hands: "Leader, I don't have a medical license."
The instructor choked, not considering this. After thinking about it: "I will reflect on this question. If you have this opportunity, are you willing to go to the resettlement site to help more people?"
No, it's bad enough to meet a family that will die if it doesn't give birth to a son, and I don't want to meet a second one. Death would be a mercy if it could escape future misery.
"Go and ask first. After all, there are so many doctors with professional diplomas, and there is no shortage of people who don't even have a medical license."
As expected, there was nothing for the instructor to do, and the resettlement site did not dare to let someone without any certificate work as a doctor.
Seven days later, the mother got into the car with her baby in her arms and went to the resettlement site. Everyone helped her wash her mind over the past few days. I believe she would make a decision about her and her baby's life.
The largest resettlement site is next to the railway station. There are simple flat-panel houses built in Wuyangyang. Each one is 50 meters long and 20 meters wide. People are constantly clearing out the snow every day.
After the mother confirmed her identity in the car, she was sent directly to one of them.
After opening the three-layer curtain, a wave of heat hit my face. Every ten meters in the middle, there is a stove with a chimney leading to the roof. Various things are burned in the gasoline barrels below, including coal, wood, and paper waste such as cardboard boxes and newspapers.
In this huge warehouse-like resettlement room, there are beds of various colors, with a passable walkway in the middle. Luggage can be placed under the bed. Each room can accommodate hundreds of people.
Some people who have lived here for more than a month have put up curtains on their beds to protect their privacy.
"Your family members who came first have already registered for you. This bed belongs to you, and the two beds next to it belong to them." The staff said. Each bed has thick quilts and mattresses, of varying degrees of newness and oldness. They should have been pieced together from nearby residential buildings. But in this case, it's good to have something to cover.
The mother looked at the double bed and single bed next to her. It seemed she didn't want her husband to sleep with her: "Where are they?"
"Working." The staff explained: "Everyone has to work in exchange for corresponding things. Only patients and those who are incapable of working do not need to work. You have just given birth and can have three months of breastfeeding leave. During this period, you do not have to work. Materials It will be distributed as usual. Also, although you have just given birth, I still want to remind you that in this case, you should try not to get pregnant. After all, if you need milk powder, you will need to work. Replaced.”
No wonder there are so few people here. I only saw twenty or thirty people, either with babies or elderly people.
The mother immediately shook her head: "I shouldn't be pregnant again."
"I just want to say that there is already a child who is still in confinement and pregnant again. She simply doesn't care about her own body and the child's body. She also asked us to find a way to take care of it, but there are so many people here who need to eat, and it is impossible to surround them. Follow their family around. You take a rest first, and I’ll leave first. When it’s time for lunch, there will be an hour and a half break, and they will be back.”
At noon, her father-in-law and her family came back, and her mother-in-law scolded her when she saw her: "This black-hearted doctor said that this place is good, mahjong, open-air movies, but in the end he has nothing, and he has to work in exchange for food."
Here, it is a rotation system. The strong and strong laborers will take a turn to shovel the snow once a month, and they may cause trouble on the remaining days. There are many other tasks, such as cooking and lighting fires. The simplest one is to look at the stove in each resettlement room. You can also go to the power generation room, where there are 50,000 power-generated bicycles and 50,000 treadmills. Insert the electronic points card you carry with you into the points slot, pedal the bicycle or walk on the machine to calculate points, and you can exchange for a meal in half an hour. Most of the electricity in the entire settlement is supplied by these.
The mother sneered secretly. She felt tired like this, and she didn't want to think about how she had spent the past month or so. A pack of instant noodles in the building could sell for 500 yuan. Later, because there was no electricity, I exchanged gold jewelry for it. When I escaped, I had already resorted to bartering, exchanging food for food. No matter how expensive it was to eat, it was still like dung.
The days at the resettlement center started like this. My mother-in-law came back every day and complained about how tired she was. She was so blessed that she could eat nothing every day without doing anything. She didn't even notice that she had to feed her baby every three or four hours, day and night. When the children make noise at night, no one around them says anything. Instead, it is the husband's family who curses first.
Five days later, she found the staff and asked where she could get a divorce.
The staff member looked at the baby in her hand and frowned slightly: "Yes, yes, but you are still breastfeeding. If neither party agrees, the divorce cannot be made."
"Don't worry, they will definitely agree." She showed enigmatic confidence.
Sure enough, they divorced soon. The reason was very simple. She said she had difficulty in giving birth and would never have another child in the future.
The husband's family was shocked when they heard this. This would affect the task of carrying on the family line. Think about it. In a few months, the child will start to eat all kinds of complementary foods. That is, there will be half an extra mouth. It is good for the grandson to eat, but a girl is useless. So he immediately agreed and urged his son to leave as soon as possible.
After the divorce, she moved to another resettlement house, surrounded by mothers who were raising their children alone. Everyone took care of each other, which made her feel more humane than her previous home.
In fact, there is nothing wrong with her health, but in the future she will be more careful about her own life and that of her children, and she will never find such a husband again.
More than three months have passed since Xining continued her life in the compound. Logically speaking, it is March, but it is still freezing and snowing outside. The snow finally stopped falling, and the clouds in the sky brought the ground to a lot of light, but there was no escape from the wind and snow that lasted at least two to three hours a day.
The temperature outside dropped to more than 50 degrees below zero, and the breath could turn into ice. The soldiers in the compound changed from going out every day to working in shifts, taking breaks every day.
The main tasks are to shovel snow and transport materials. The original settlement points next to the storage warehouse are now all moved to the train station, but a lot of manpower is needed to transport things from the warehouse to the train station every day.
The situation outside is getting worse and worse for those who have not had time to go to the resettlement sites. Snow up to five meters deep flooded the second floor. In some places, the snow had formed an ice crust outside, but in some places it was still very soft. As soon as people entered, it disappeared immediately. It was like being buried in an avalanche and being buried in ice and snow. It was very difficult to climb out. You froze to death in less than ten minutes.
Nowadays, in addition to storage warehouses and resettlement sites, there are fewer and fewer scattered supplies outside, and there are also gangs to rob them.
Basically, they are the ones who escaped from the prison by taking advantage of the natural disaster and dared not go to the resettlement site, and there are also the ambitious ones who took advantage of the chaos and claimed the throne. Sooner or later, greedy eyes will be fixed on the team on duty. This truck is full of valuable materials.
