Reborn in the Apocalypse: A Commoner's Survival Log

Chapter 234 It’s Snowing

Ultimately, Zhou Yang lost the fishing competition.

Of course, Shen Zechuan couldn't bear to let Zhou Yang actually wash smelly socks for a month, so he took on the task himself, but on the condition that Zhou Yang had to have a big meat meal with him today.

Zhou Yang thought for a few seconds and chose to suffer for a month over one night of suffering.

Then Zhou Yang was once again pinned to the bed by Shen Zechuan and tortured repeatedly until she didn't even know how she fell into a deep sleep.

When he woke up the next day, he was already lying on a bed outside the space.

He still felt weak all over, and even the slightest movement caused him to feel soreness in his lower body. However, it was much better than when he had been made to faint last time. It seemed that he had been toughened up by Shen Zechuan.

Zhou Yang glanced at Shen Zechuan, who was still fast asleep beside him, and barely managed to suppress the urge to hit him.

In order to be able to go out and meet people today, he decisively slipped into the space.

Drink spring water, take a spring bath, treat yourself to all of these.

An hour later, Zhou Yang finally felt he was healed again, so he changed his clothes and left the space.

When they went out, Shen Zechuan was still unconscious.

Zhou Yang didn't call him, but went straight to the kitchen and brewed a pot of heat-clearing and fire-reducing tea for Shen Zechuan.

This person is really too much trouble; they definitely need to be calmed down.

When Shen Zechuan came out, Zhou Yang was sitting alone at the dining table, eating congee with steamed buns, while Wandou and Dahuang's family were eating their breakfast in the corner.

Why are you up so early? Why don't you sleep a little longer?

As she spoke, she sat down next to Zhou Yang, grabbed a small steamed bun from the plate and stuffed it into her mouth. Just as she was about to take a sip of porridge from Zhou Yang's bowl, her hand was slapped away, and a cup of tea was handed to her.

“Drink this, it’s good for clearing heat and reducing internal fire.” Zhou Yang rolled her eyes at him, then answered Shen Zechuan’s earlier question, “If you’re not feeling well, you can’t sleep. Who sleeps like a pig like you?”

Shen Zechuan wasn't angry at all when Zhou Yang compared him to a pig. He simply kissed Zhou Yang on the cheek and said, "I didn't sleep well before I left home, did I? Now that I'm finally home and you're next to me, I just fell into a deep sleep without realizing it."

Zhou Yang glared at him but didn't say anything more.

The main reason is that I understand Shen Zechuan was indeed tired before. I was able to sleep peacefully outside because Shen Zechuan and the others were always on guard. So naturally, I won't dwell on this issue now.

The two of them were too lazy to bother Yu Jing across the street for breakfast, so they simply solved the problem.

After breakfast, the two wrapped themselves in blankets and sat on the sofa to watch a movie in a rare moment of leisure.

As Zhou Yang watched, he suddenly felt a chill, especially on his feet, which were ice cold.

"Wow, it seems to have gotten colder again, and quite a bit, don't you think?"

His house is well insulated; you can feel the cold so clearly, the temperature outside must have dropped significantly.

Shen Zechuan listened carefully for a moment, then nodded and said:

"Indeed."

Zhou Yang thought for a moment, then got up and went to the balcony, lifting the curtains to look outside.

Because the weather is getting colder and the extreme cold could return at any time, the curtains in the house are kept drawn day and night to keep warm.

Upon closer inspection, I discovered that it had already started snowing outside, though it had just begun and wasn't heavy; it was more like sleet.

"It's snowing so early this time?" Zhou Yang frowned as he looked at the snowflakes outside the window. "It seems that the coldest period of the year will be tonight at the latest. I'll have to remind everyone at dinner that we need to turn on the heaters and electric blankets tonight."

Shen Zechuan followed Zhou Yang over, and after looking at the snow outside, he frowned slightly and immediately agreed with Zhou Yang's idea.

Looking at the time, it was almost noon, so Zhou Yang and Shen Zechuan went directly to the other side.

As soon as I stepped outside, I could feel that the temperature was significantly lower, probably around minus ten degrees Celsius.

Zhou Yang and Shen Zechuan, who were originally wearing thick coats, had to take out their down jackets and change into them.

When the two arrived, Yu Jing had just started cooking rice and was directing Xu Zhiyi and Xu Qingtang to help her chop vegetables.

Seeing the two of them come in, Yu Jing quickly asked, "You two just got up? You haven't had breakfast yet, have you? Are you hungry? Should I heat up the meat buns you had this morning?"

As Yu Jing was about to heat up the steamed buns, Zhou Yang quickly stopped her, saying, "Auntie, there's no need to trouble yourself. We were too lazy to go out this morning, so we just ate something quick and easy. We're not hungry yet."

"By the way, Auntie, why don't you go change into something warmer? Don't you feel that it's suddenly gotten colder?" Seeing that Yu Jing and the others were still wearing only a single sweater, Zhou Yang couldn't help but ask another question. "It suddenly got colder again, and it's started snowing outside. It must have dropped by at least ten degrees."

"Sigh, it was only around 0 degrees Celsius this morning, and now it's minus 10 degrees Celsius?" Yu Jing was stunned for a moment. "We started making dough and steamed buns early this morning, and then we made all kinds of glutinous rice balls. We've been busy until now without stopping. If you hadn't told me, I really wouldn't have noticed."

After saying that, Yu Jing quickly went to the window, pulled back the curtains and looked outside. Sure enough, it was snowing outside, and the snow was even heavier than what Zhou Yang had just seen.

"It really is snowing. Sigh, it's only the end of October... Even in the north, it rarely snows this early."

Keep in mind that this place is in the far south. Before the apocalypse, it would still be in the twenties right now, and even at the coldest time of the year, it would only be around minus ten degrees Celsius.

The Xu siblings, who were busy in the kitchen, heard the conversation between the three and quickly came out after finishing their work.

They were all quite surprised to see the snow outside the window.

"Zhiyi, go and take the down jacket and thick cotton shoes to Shanshan right now. Don't let him get too cold. It's quite cold at the base clinic." Yu Jing looked at the heavy snow outside for a while, then suddenly remembered that He Shanshan wasn't dressed warmly enough that morning. She was a little worried and quickly pulled Xu Zhiyi over to give him the order.

"I'll go right now!" Xu Zhiyi had the same idea. He hurriedly went back inside to get two long down jackets, one thicker and one thinner. He also grabbed a pair of thick-soled cotton shoes, thick socks, a pack of hand warmers and foot warmers, and rushed out the door.

After Xu Zhiyi left, Zhou Yang looked around but didn't see Gu Yaoyao, so she asked, "Auntie, where's Yaoyao? Isn't she up yet?"

"I got up a long time ago. But after Yan Fei and the others came over for breakfast this morning, Xiao Yi didn't leave. He stayed in the room with Yao Yao and read books. But I turned on the heater for them, so they shouldn't be cold."

Hearing this, Zhou Yang was immediately relieved and nodded: "Then it should be fine."
