When they were almost done eating, Qi Mingyu patted Mu Mu's little head and said with a smile, "Uncle Zhou, Aunt Zhong, I have something I want to ask you for help with."

"What's the matter?" Zhong Tiyun asked hurriedly.

Qi Mingyu was always calm and composed, but now he seemed a little embarrassed. "We live on the fifth floor. If it keeps raining, there will definitely be a power outage, which will be inconvenient. I bought a solar system. I wonder if it can be installed on your seventh floor? We'll rent it at market price."

The Zhou family members exchanged glances.

Father Zhou spoke first: "Why do we need to pay rent for this? My house has solar panels installed. Bring the machine here tomorrow and I'll install it for you!"

Neighbors should help each other, and what's more, Xiaoyu just bought weapons for their family and generously provided them with a parking space.

To repay a favor, I just want to install a solar panel on the rooftop of my house. It is neither reasonable nor moral to refuse.

"Thank you so much, Uncle Zhou." Qi Mingyu toasted Zhou Jianghai with another glass of wine.

Grandma Pang smiled at the side and said, "I just said that we have lived together upstairs and downstairs for 10 to 20 years and have a very good relationship. Xiaoyu is a thoughtful child. It's not that I push him, but he always thinks it's too much trouble for you to ask."

"You kid, you've been so polite since you were little!" Zhong Tiyun also scolded: "When you come to our house, you act just like your own uncle and aunt."

Seeing that the Zhou family was determined not to collect the rent, Qi Mingyu thought for a moment and said solemnly, "Okay, I won't be polite with you anymore. If you need my help in the future, uncle and aunt, just ask. I will definitely do my best to help you."

This was the promise he made to the Zhou family.

"Okay!" Dad Zhou patted his shoulder cheerfully.

There were too many supplies stored on the seventh floor and they could not be seen by outsiders. Therefore, the next day Zhou Jianghai helped the Qi family install the solar equipment himself and did not let Qi Mingyu go upstairs to help.

Fortunately, he listened to his daughter when he installed the system at home and kept recording the video, which he would take out and study whenever he had free time.

He has worked in a hardware store for many years and is very familiar with machine equipment maintenance, so he is not afraid to install it by himself.

Zhou Shuwan contacted her senior Zhang Jia again, urging her to come back quickly.

Zhang Jia also felt a little regretful and said to Zhou Shuwan on the phone: "Wanwan, there have been several hailstorms around here again, and the prices of fruits and vegetables have risen sharply. Kuishu and I now have to queue up in long lines every day to buy things at the supermarket.

Several classmates in our class have asked for leave to go back to their hometowns, and my parents are urging me to go back. I looked at the train tickets, and there are no tickets available in the near future, not even standing tickets...

Kuishu said that tickets might be available in a few days..."

Train tickets are sold in advance half a month in advance. Even if you can buy one now, you will only get a ticket for half a month later.

The flood was so severe that even the high-speed trains couldn't move.

In his previous life, Zhou Shuwan was a college student like Zhang Jia, and did not realize the significance of this disaster.

Later I wanted to go back but couldn’t buy a ticket, so I just muddled along, comforting myself that maybe I could buy a ticket in two days.

In the end, all the opportunities were missed.

She said to Zhang Jia earnestly, "Senior, listen to me, sitting there waiting for train tickets is the stupidest thing to do.

You should immediately go to major platforms to find scalpers and see if they can help you grab the tickets with the earliest departure time. It doesn’t matter if you pay more, just eat less takeout meals.

If that doesn't work, buy tickets at each stop until you can get on the bus! If that still doesn't work, share a ride with someone and take a long-distance bus...

You must come back as soon as possible, our area is starting to flood..."

Her eager tone infected the other party, and Zhang Jia assured him on the phone: "Okay, Wanwan, I'll listen to you. I'll find a scalper right now."

After hanging up the phone, Zhou Shuwan frowned, very worried about the other party.

In her previous life, the senior sister only wanted to go home. In the end, when she was seriously injured and lost consciousness, she still mumbled: "Mom... Dad..."
