She couldn't stand staying at home alone, so she left her hometown?
Zhang Jia saw Zhou Shuwan's suspicions and sneered, "No, they are alive and well. At least, they were alive and well when I escaped."
Escape?
Zhang Jia looked at the distant horizon and the people walking on the road and sighed softly.
It turned out that when she finally returned home after so much hardship, the whole family was very happy, including her brother and sister-in-law.
Her mother wiped her tears and said that she would just pretend that she would never see her again, and she would cry every night when she thought of her. She also told her that if she didn't come back, she and her father would go out to the south to pick her up personally.
She was very touched at that time.
Because of the information from her junior schoolmate and the disaster she had seen along the way, she knew that the south was low-lying and the disaster was much more serious than the north, so she tried her best to persuade her family, went to the supermarket to buy a lot of food, and also bought a lot of medicine, alcohol, etc. at the pharmacy.
Originally, my parents and brother and sister-in-law were reluctant to do so. They thought it was okay to stockpile some supplies, but there was no need to stockpile so much!
Later, I couldn't persuade her anymore, so I stockpiled a lot of supplies at home.
However, every time my father and brother came back from outside and saw the piles of supplies in the living room, they would shake their heads and sigh.
Zhang Jia has a personality similar to his mother's, and is generous in dealing with people and spending money.
But my brother and father are both rather stingy.
Coupled with the sister-in-law who liked to stir up trouble, their relationship became quite strained during that period.
Fortunately, the heavy rain did not stop, the flood level kept rising, and things became more and more expensive. Countless people in the community owners’ group complained that they could not buy supplies even at high prices.
Only then did my father and brother and sister-in-law feel happy.
But what Zhang Jia never expected was that one day, in order to make huge profits, his brother and sister-in-law sold more than half of the full supplies without consulting their family, and the money they earned was more than ten times what they had bought.
The couple were almost going crazy with joy when they hid in bed at night.
According to their understanding, the flood will definitely not last for one or two years, so they only need to keep supplies for the second half of the year and sell the rest at a high price.
The government cannot just sit back and do nothing. The supply is currently so high that the entire city is flooded and supplies from other places cannot be transported.
Just be patient and wait, the government will take action.
They did not discuss this matter with their families because they were selfish and wanted to keep all the money earned from selling supplies in their own hands.
When they were moving supplies out, they used the excuse that Zhang Jia's mother was sick and sent Zhang Jia and his parents to the hospital.
When Zhang Jia returned from the hospital, he discovered that two-thirds of the supplies were missing.
Zhang Jia's parents also cursed at their son.
But Brother Zhang Jia kept his neck stiff and talked about his way of making money.
Things have come to this point, and the family is helpless.
However, what Zhang Jia and his sister-in-law did not expect was that the flood lasted for such a long time. It was only when the flood lasted for half a year and the supplies at home began to run out that they began to panic.
But the huge amount of money earned at that time became a pile of waste paper in the bank and could not be used to buy any supplies.
Including my nephews and nieces, there are seven mouths to feed in the family.
Zhang Jia's wife began to dislike Zhang Jialai, both openly and covertly, complaining that she ate too much and that she was a girl but always occupied the house...
Every time she cooked, she deliberately deducted Zhang Jia's money.
Zhang Jia was not a good-tempered person, so naturally she had to argue with her sister-in-law. After arguing so much, her brother also began to dislike her!
Once, Zhang Jiahe had a big fight with his sister-in-law, and his brother actually slapped her in the face.
Although Zhang Jia's parents scolded their son loudly, the discord between Zhang Jia and his brother and sister-in-law was rooted here.
Before long, Mrs. Zhang Jia was determined to sell her out, and whenever she saw a young man in a neighbor's house, she would go to their house to lobby them.
Soon the whole community knew that Zhang Jia wanted to get married.
When Zhang Jia found out, she burst into tears and went to her parents to complain about her grievances.
Who would have thought that her parents, who had always doted on her, would also advise her to find someone to marry quickly so that someone would support her in the future.
Supplies are so scarce now, it would be a waste of food for her to stay at home.
At that time, Zhang Jia was listening to his father in the living room, while his mother sat beside him without saying a word, obviously agreeing with this statement.
Nephews and nieces were playing not far away.
My brother and his wife were angry and hid in the bedroom and refused to come out.
It was the first time that she felt so deeply that she was just a passer-by in this family and not a member of it at all.
Later, she overheard a conversation between her brother and sister-in-law one night. It turned out that they had contacted a very wealthy divorced man in the next neighborhood. He was in his forties, had a son and a daughter, and had enough supplies at home. He wanted to find a young wife to take care of the children.
Her brother and sister-in-law wanted to sell her at a high price!
She thought about it for a long time and knew that asking her parents for help was useless. The whole family was starving. If she knew that selling her could get more supplies, her parents would definitely agree, and they would even call it finding a lifelong home for her.
She decided to escape.
There is a kayak at home, which she insisted on buying when she came back. Now, because of this boat, my brother and father occasionally go out to help people transport supplies, and they have some income.
Zhang Jia showed no mercy. In the middle of the night, he secretly took away half of the food in the kitchen and went downstairs carrying the kayak.
In the dark night, she cried while paddling a kayak, but after crying, her heart felt very cold and hard.
She knew that even if she was starving and begging for food outside, she would never go home to eat a bite from her parents, brothers and sisters-in-law. After much hesitation, she decided to come to J City to find Zhou Shuwan.
Although the two of them didn't have much interaction in this life, she somehow felt very trusting of each other, as if they had known each other in their previous life.
But she was too naive at that time. After going to J City with great difficulty, she found that she didn't know the other party's address at all.
The food she had brought from home was almost gone, and with nowhere else to go, she joined the large group of people who were relocating to the resettlement site.
And then until now.
To be honest, except for the period when she first started to escape, she had encountered some bad things. After she arrived at the survivors' apartment, she had lived relatively comfortably in the past two years because it was full of women and children.
The supplies distributed can also ensure the minimum physical needs.
The reason why she was so thin was that she had a serious illness some time ago. She had no money to see a doctor and no medicine, so she just stayed in bed for a month and managed to get through it.
Zhou Shuwan never expected that she would have such an experience.
She held his hand, feeling distressed and sighing: "I thought you were living well at home. Occasionally, when I think of you, I feel that your family must be reunited..."
She couldn't say any more.
In their previous lives, they traveled all the way north just to see their families and reunite with them.
