After lunch, everyone went about their business.
Wu Chao and Wenquan Xin were responsible for clearing the dishes.
Lin Bo took Acheng and Wang Qiang to sort out the tents assigned to them.
Tang Xiaoquan followed Hu Xiaodong to a simple hut made of wire and plastic sheeting.
"This is the bathroom," Hu Xiaodong pointed to the hut in front of him and explained: "Originally I didn't plan to do this thing, but considering everyone's interest, I did it briefly. Haha, relatively speaking It’s shabby, don’t look outside of it.”
Looking at this illegal building that was more like a curtain shed than a bathing hut, Tang Xiaoquan laughed slightly awkwardly.
After all, Chinese people still take nudity very seriously, even though on weekdays in schools and public bathhouses, everyone bares their breasts and wears nothing.
But after all, it is a closed space with a canopy above the head, and the almost open-air bathing environment is really a bit...
Fortunately, Tang Xiaoquan is also a person who understands the general situation. He understands that the current situation does not allow for too much expectation, so he responded with a smile: "Uh~ It doesn't matter, Brother Hu, we grown men don't pay attention to these things. I am very satisfied with some washing." Sigh."
Nodding appreciatively, Hu Xiaodong was quite satisfied with Tang Xiaoquan's indifferent reply just now.
And what Tang Xiaoquan didn't know was that when he was secretly analyzing and evaluating Hu Xiaodong's team, the other party was not doing the same thing.
For example, now, the reason why Hu Xiaodong personally led him to the bathroom was to see how well these young people could adapt to the harsh environment.
And if Tang Xiaoquan showed any dissatisfaction or disgust just now, then Hu Xiaodong would definitely have a bad impression on their team.
Over time, as this bad impression ferments, when it reaches an irreconcilable peak, it will evolve into an irreversible conflict.
Fortunately, Tang Xiaoquan's response was quite good, and he finally eliminated the budding consequences of this incident without realizing it.
"Come and bring the basin," the exit signaled Tang Xiaoquan to pick up the porcelain basin on the ground. Hu Xiaodong held a huge pure bucket and poured some water into the porcelain basin: "Right now, supplies are tight, so I can only give you this water for simple wiping. , when it rains, let’s take a good bath, hahaha.”
Laughing heartily, Hu Xiaodong seemed to think of the refreshing scene of bathing in the rain, with an unconcealable smile on his face.
It seems that the conditions here are really not that difficult. Looking at the clear water in the basin that was almost bottomed out, Tang Xiaoquan couldn't help but smile bitterly.
He thought to himself: Brother, are you kidding me again? When did getting wet in the rain become such a pleasant thing? Are you the monkey sent here to tease me?
As if to confirm the former idea, Hu Xiaodong’s first voice just finished, and the second voice added:
"Also, if you want the water to be used up later, just pour it into the waste water bucket over there, so that we can use it to wash clothes. Haha, secondary use. Saving is a virtue."
After saying this, Hu Xiaodong did not forget to raise his lips playfully, and there was a strong smell of Wenquan Xin in his every move.
It's a pity that Tang Xiaoquan is really not in the mood to amuse him. If he had doubts about his judgment just now, now he is convinced that the other party is a monkey sent to tease him.
It’s so little water, it’s enough to wipe your body, but you still ask me to save it. Brother, are you asking me to wash it? Or don't you ask me to wash it?
After watching Hu Xiaodong leave with a hint of helplessness, Tang Xiaoquan immediately let out a long sigh of relief.
His eyes subconsciously scanned the surroundings. The bathroom was located in the second half of the roof. The reason why it was called half section was mainly because there was a room that looked like a storage room in the center of the roof.
Tang Xiaoquan had always been quite curious as to why this room was not used for living, but because he had just arrived here and could not ask more questions, he suppressed it and did not ask.
On the right hand side of the bathing room, there is an inner-like curtain room, inside which is a half-open plastic bucket. The yellow liquid accumulated in the bucket is making little ripples under the reflection of the sun.
Toilet, these two words immediately appeared in Tang Xiaoquan's mind. No wonder he faintly smelled a fishy stench in the air just when he came here.
Shaking his head helplessly again, Tang Xiaoquan withdrew his gaze. He began to miss the rental house where he lived before.
Although the price of that house was low and it was one of the poorest gathering areas in the city, it was obviously a little higher than the current abject environment that was almost prehistoric!
Tang Xiaoquan threw his removed clothes onto the wire rack, picked up a handful of water and splashed it on his face.
"Cool!" This was a cry from the bottom of his heart. Although the water temperature had lost its original coolness after being evaporated by the scorching sun, Tang Xiaoquan still couldn't help but feel the unique smooth feeling of clear water when it soaked into his skin. He couldn't help but sigh.
Tang Xiaoquan wiped the towel slowly on his body, doing it very carefully, for fear that his precious water would be poured onto the ground due to excessive movements.
After about ten minutes, until the dry towel could no longer squeeze out any water, Tang Xiaoquan ended his bathing work with some reluctance.
After wiping himself clean and putting on new clothes, when he appeared in front of everyone again, Tang Xiaoquan felt as if he had been reborn and felt extremely comfortable.
"Hey, Qiangzi, the tents are ready. How about you share one with me, and one for Lin Bo and Acheng? No problem, right?" Wang Qiang pointed to the two tents in front of him. There was a bit of dejection in his words, it was obvious that he had put a lot of effort into adjusting the tent just now.
Tang Xiaoquan thought about this for a moment. Frankly speaking, he didn't care much about who he lived with and where he lived.
However, considering that Wang Qiang often speaks poorly and has a rather upright personality, sleeping in a tent with him is obviously a good choice in order to avoid unnecessary trouble.
So, Tang Xiaoquan didn't say anything, patted the latter on the shoulder, and gave a positive reply: "No problem, we have been brothers for so many years, when have we separated? Besides, if you don't have a brother, I will accompany you tonight. Can you sleep, hahaha!"
Tang Xiaoquan made a rare joke to Wang Qiang. Then he pointed to the curtain room behind him and urged: "Quick, go to the back and take a shower to avoid bringing the smell into the tent. Also remember to save water, don't use it." Let others gossip about us."
After explaining the relevant precautions, Tang Xiaoquan ignored the indignant and nagging Wang Qiang, and instead turned his attention to Hu Xiaodong, who was leaning on the roof of the building, puffing out smoke...
