I had a holiday yesterday because the situation in Wuhan is getting more and more serious. I have been hesitating whether to go home to celebrate the New Year. I went back because I was afraid of bringing the virus home. Especially in railway stations and trains, where there are dense crowds and closed spaces, it is easiest to do so. If something goes wrong, even wearing a mask may not work; but if you don't go back, you have to work hard outside all year long, and just hope that you can go home to rest and "replenish your blood" during the New Year. If you don't go home, you will definitely have a lot of regrets.
A long time ago, Xia Ke booked a ticket for the 29th day of the twelfth lunar month, which is today’s noon. Last night, he was restless and couldn’t fall asleep. At 2 o’clock in the morning this morning, he checked Weibo and saw the news of Wuhan’s lockdown. The hesitation in his heart disappeared immediately. But what followed was a burst of panic, feeling that I was isolated and helpless!
The news said that the city was closed at ten o'clock in the morning. At that time, the knight could have left if he changed his ticket to eight or nine o'clock, but after thinking about it, he decided not to. Although the knight did not have a fever or cold now, the virus has an incubation period of ten days. Instead of going home and celebrating the New Year in fear, it’s better to stay in Wuhan honestly!
I didn’t go to bed until around three in the morning and almost four in the morning. I set an alarm clock for 7:30 in the morning because I guessed that many people would go to the supermarket to buy food. Since Xiake had an impromptu plan to celebrate the New Year in Wuhan, he didn’t prepare anything at home. We don’t even have enough rice, so in order to “survive”, we must go to the supermarket as early as possible to buy “New Year’s goods”!
After sleeping for more than three hours, I felt a little groggy when I woke up in the morning. I guessed it might be caused by lack of sleep. I called my wife (Xia Ke was expected to get married on May 1st this year and originally planned to go to his wife's house to celebrate the New Year this year) to get up and put on the clothes I wore yesterday. I bought a mask at a high price (N95, 88 yuan each), got on the eDonkey, and set off!
Facing the cold wind in the morning, my groggy head suddenly woke up. About ten minutes later, I arrived at the Wal-Mart closest to my home. There were already many people inside, and I realized that this Wal-Mart opened at 7:30. ... After tightening the mask to make sure it was not leaking, I squeezed in with my wife and started a frenzied trip to buy ingredients!
Spare ribs for 30 yuan each? Bought! 70 old hens? Bought too! Vegetables, etc., all packaged and labeled without weighing, just throw them directly into the basket without even looking at the price! It's not that the knights are wealthy, but the queues for weighing vegetables in the supermarket are so long and crowded, that knights don't dare to squeeze in with those uncles and aunts!
Although the prices of vegetables are generally several times more expensive than usual, when I think about having to stay at home and be self-reliant for the next few days, I grit my teeth and accept it. Later, it turns out that the knight's decision was correct!
I bought two large baskets of things, waited in line for half an hour, and finally paid my bill and left this crowded place! After returning home, I bought some drinks and other things from the supermarket in the community. After carrying it several times, I finally brought all the New Year's goods home (the rented house is on the 6th floor and there is no elevator). My legs were broken from exhaustion!
It was almost one o'clock in the afternoon. I cooked some food and started to browse Weibo. I found that we were really lucky because the price of vegetables in Wuhan was already ridiculously expensive at almost noon. Chinese cabbage was 35 a piece and pork belly was 130. One more kilogram…
Alas, the knight speaks softly and doesn't know what to say about this. The only thing he can do is to live his life well!
I was very sleepy in the afternoon. After all, I only slept for more than three hours last night, so I fell on the bed and slept again. I didn’t wake up until six o’clock in the evening. When I woke up, my eyes hurt, my head felt dizzy, and there was even a little pain... …
The knight's heart skipped a beat. His first reaction was that he felt infected, his heart went cold, and he became extremely panicked! But after calming down and analyzing, the only crowded place I went to today was the supermarket, and the protection was very good at that time, so I shouldn’t have been infected. In addition, my body showed no signs of fever, but my eyes hurt and the back of my head hurt, which is more like It's...sleeping too much, or having a stiff neck...
Although I think so, I still feel panicked, but I can't show it, because I am my wife's backbone, and if I panic, she will be even more helpless!
I drank a bag of cold medicine, and once my lunch was hot, I started eating dinner as usual (my appetite was fine, so I didn’t think I was sick). After eating, I asked my wife to massage my head and neck. Now my head is gone. It hurts, and my eyes are still a little swollen and painful. Let’s take a nap first and see again tomorrow. If it doesn’t work, we can only go to the hospital for examination!
I guess I have to update a lot in the past two days. Firstly, I have been very busy, and secondly, I am not in the mood to think about the plot to catch up with this matter. I would like to say sorry to everyone!
At the same time, I also remind all book friends, whether they are in Wuhan or not, try not to go out during the Chinese New Year. New Year can be celebrated every year. This year, be "low-key" first. Good health is the most important thing! If you really have to go out, you must wear a mask. No matter you are in Wuhan or not, safety comes first!
Finally, I wish all my friends a safe Spring Festival! Xiake wishes you and your family a happy new year, and wishes you happiness and all the best! The most important thing is to be healthy!
