I don't remember when I fell asleep, but when I woke up again, the sky was already bright.
Shen Mo was not in the room.
Bai Youwei yawned slowly, and saw a mouthwash cup, toothbrush, toothpaste, and a bucket of fresh water on the table.
She didn't move immediately, but sat on the bed for a while, then slowly changed her clothes, then got out of bed and sat in a wheelchair, brushing her teeth and washing her face.
She had been saving the dirty clothes for two days. She wanted to throw them away, but thinking that she no longer had the capital to squander, she had to endure the irritability and take them into the separate bathroom of the dormitory for cleaning.
It's really annoying, she hasn't washed clothes since she was a child.
Teacher Cheng is cooking in the corridor outside.
He borrowed a wood stove and an iron pot from upstairs, with rice, oil, salt and vinegar and various bottles and jars on the side. He heard Bai Youwei getting up and said immediately: "Weiwei, breakfast will be ready soon, there is porridge. And eggs, Teacher Tu also sent a pack of noodles, which one do you want to eat?"
"It's fine..." Bai Youwei asked in the room, "Where's Shen Mo?"
"He and Tanxiao went to Yangzhou Port early in the morning." Teacher Cheng glanced in the direction of the school gate, "Should be back soon."
Bai Youwei let out an "oh", and rubbed her clothes a few times in her hands, regardless of whether they were dry or not, they were all dried in the dormitory.
After that, she had nothing to do, slipped her wheelchair to the back of the dormitory building, and pulled the mint leaves in the flowerbed.
Grab a bunch.
Wash each leaf finely and hang it with newspaper to dry in the shade of the corridor.
Probably because she and Cheng Weicai were too leisurely, one was cooking and the other was drying leaves. When the students upstairs came down, they looked at them with indescribable eyes.
Tu Dan is going to take the students to the frog game today. He is preparing early in the morning, and the atmosphere is very tense.
Bai Youwei held the bowl and watched them busy while drinking porridge, feeling a little regretful, because Teacher Cheng's craftsmanship was obviously not as good as Tu Dan's.
She saw 13 students, including Tu Dan, a total of 14 people got on the bicycle, raised their arms and waved:
"Bon Voyage."
Tu Dan also waved at her and set off with the students.
14 bicycles left one after another and rode on the campus road, like a school of fish shuttling in the water, with a neat rhythm and full of vitality.
Bai Youwei looked at the speeding wheels, took a sip of porridge, and murmured, "I'm so envious..."
…
Not long after Tu Dan's people left, Shen Mo and Tan Xiao came back.
They got gasoline, collected some supplies, and filled the off-road vehicle more than before, so full it was about to explode.
"It's over." Bai Youwei said coolly, "It seems that there is no point in finding a shelter, otherwise they wouldn't bring back so much food on purpose."
Cheng Wei just looked at Shen Mo and chatted and laughed, hoping they could bring back good news.
Facing the eyes of the old man, Shen Mo's original decisive temper became a little bit incapable of opening his mouth.
He pondered for a long time before he said, "...the boat didn't come."
Teacher Cheng's eyes suddenly dimmed.
Shen Mo went on to say: "The ships responsible for transferring people started every two hours, but in recent days, not a single ship appeared. Some people couldn't wait and robbed the working ferries on the shore, and some people went along the Yangtze River. The embankment went south. There are only a dozen tents left in Yangzhou Port, and it is estimated that in two days, the rest will leave."
"Meaning... the boat will never come?" Teacher Cheng asked tremblingly, "Those people don't plan to wait any longer?"
"Can't wait." Tan Xiao sighed aside, "They said that the fog in the city has been expanding. At first, it was only the size of a small community. Now, the whole city has been swallowed up! If you wait any longer, Yangzhou Port will not be safe. !"
Teacher Cheng's face was confused, "Then we... we..."
"My idea is..." Shen Mo looked at them and said, "Would you like to take a look in the fog?"
