On May 9, Sichuan Provincial TV Station reported that a "grand event" of 100,000 toads had migrated to a certain place.
It is a strange phenomenon that people have never seen in their life, and people just talk about it after dinner and tea as a new news.
You Yu has been suffering from insomnia for three nights. He has a sore in his throat. He has difficulty swallowing saliva and his whole body is wilted.
From Grandpa You to Grandma You to company employees, when have they ever seen her look so listless?
Everyone advised her to rest peacefully and the company's business was running well without her.
Everyone's concern did not improve You Yu's condition. By 10 o'clock in the evening on May 11, he still had a high fever, over 38 degrees.
You Yu didn't take it seriously. Her body was usually as strong as a calf. She only took the antipyretics that were always available at home and then fell asleep.
An hour later, the sleepy man's face was redder than the monkey's butt.
Grandma You kept rubbing alcohol tablets on her little granddaughter's hands and feet, but it didn't bring down the fever.
Grandpa You made a quick decision: "No way, old lady, please change Xiaoyu's clothes. I'll go next door and call Zhang Dabiao over. If the fire continues, I won't burn out my brain. I have to drive to the hospital quickly!"
"Hey, go quickly!" Grandma You touched her little granddaughter's forehead and the temperature of her hands and feet, feeling anxious.
Ten minutes later, the three of them sent You Yu to the emergency department of the county hospital overnight.
During the consultation, You Yu was kept in the dark throughout the whole process. After three consecutive intravenous drips, his red face gradually returned to its normal color.
After struggling until about three o'clock in the morning, a few people came back from the hospital.
Grandma You changed her into pajamas again. You Yu crawled onto the bed in a daze, and fell asleep again in less than a minute.
The old couple didn't sleep well that night. They had to get up every hour to see if their little granddaughter had a recurring fever.
After finally staying up until dawn, I couldn't fall asleep no matter what, so I just got up early.
May 12, 2008, was an ordinary Monday.
The employees who came to work in the morning heard that their boss had collapsed from exhaustion and couldn't bear to be disturbed. They all went to work on their own initiative.
Jiang Wenmei received the commission from the boss left by Grandpa You and arranged the work of each department in an orderly manner.
The production department was busy fertilizing the turkey melons, and the old ladies who were cutting asparagus had to rush to the hotel to collect the money and pick all the vegetables back.
Cheng Xiaogang and Grandma You discussed making some old hen soup for the boss to replenish his health.
The sleeping person did not sleep as soundly as everyone thought. She was having a nightmare at the moment.
In the dream, the sky was shattering and the buildings in the city were collapsing, followed by floods.
Escape, risking his life to escape, You Yu's short legs ran out of the afterimage, and he almost ran away.
Not daring to look back, I could only run forward with the passers-by.
The roars and screams behind him were endless.
The earth was trembling, and those who were running forward could not stand still.
"Xiaoyu, wake up quickly, wake up quickly, there's an earthquake, there's an earthquake!" Grandpa You slapped his little granddaughter who was sweating all over, and shook her for a long time without moving.
As soon as he gritted his teeth, he bent down and picked up the little granddaughter, who weighed more than 70 kilograms, and ran tremblingly into the living room.
Employees at home and the company next door panicked and ran into the courtyard.
The tiles on the roof rustled and the lamps shook violently.
It was under such circumstances that You Yu woke up from his dream with difficulty, looked at the huddled employees, opened his mouth, and spoke in a voice like a rooster: "I, I, just, just dreamed of an earthquake! "
Huh? I can finally say it!
Zhang Dabiao was right in front of him, but his voice came from a distance: "Boss, you are not dreaming, there is a real earthquake! The earthquake was so strong that the lights in the office shook to the ground and broke."
A Kuan came over, patted his chest, and said in a low voice:
"Oh, boss! You scared us so much just now. Fortunately, we don't work in a high-rise building. Everyone ran so fast! The old man is really strong and strong. He carried you out of the bedroom by himself!"
The employees were all talking and were about to tell their boss what had just happened when the aftershocks came again.
You Yu's head, which had not yet fully awakened, was shaken until he fainted again.
When she woke up again, it was already half an hour later.
She found herself lying on the sofa with a thin blanket covering her body, looking around as if she was in her open-air garage.
It's quiet outside, no one is there!
Where have all the people gone?
The employees of Princess Pea Fruit and Vegetable Company organized themselves to help check the damage to houses and casualties in the whole village.
At this point, there was no signal at all on the home landline or her mobile phone.
CCTV News Channel broadcast news about the Wenchuan Earthquake in its "headlines" and "oral broadcast" in its "Hourly News" at 15 o'clock.
Previously, earthquake news was announced in the form of subtitles.
At 15:20, all news channels and columns stopped normal broadcasting and advertisements at various times.
All have launched live broadcast programs for emergencies.
In the live broadcast room, the host looked solemn. She connected with reporters from TV stations in Shancheng, Hunan and Hubei provinces to report on the earthquakes and disasters in various places.
There are also experts who explain professional knowledge about earthquakes in the live broadcast room.
The whole country was shocked!
In Beijing, You Lijun was anxious in circles, calling his hometown landline, his younger daughter's mobile phone, and his eldest sister's and younger sister's phones over and over again. Half an hour passed, but not a single call was answered.
He was frightened by the news in the live broadcast room, his face was ashen, his legs were unsteady, and his fingers were shaking violently.
After You Ci got the news at school, he immediately asked for leave, took a taxi and ran home, making calls non-stop on his cell phone.
Ye Guimei burst into tears at home. Her filial little daughter, father-in-law, mother-in-law, mother, brothers and sisters-in-law are all still in her hometown. How can this be a good thing?
Seeing his grandmother crying so miserably, Su Zhe's mouth tightened and he started crying too.
That night's "Xinwen Lianbo" reported the important speech made by Chairman GJ and the news of the Prime Minister's arrival in the disaster area of Sichuan Province.
Subsequently, "Focus" launched the special program "We Face It Together" for earthquake relief.
The landline was connected only after nine o'clock in the evening. When he heard the news that he was safe, You Lijun sat down on the ground.
Choking and muttering to himself, "It's okay as long as it's okay, it's okay as long as it's okay"
At night in Jiang County, there are occasional aftershocks.
It started raining heavily at 23:00, and no one dared to sleep in the house. Youyu's family of three were lying on the sofa in the open garage.
The old lady looked at the heavy rain outside the garage and was filled with fear: "If our family hadn't built a new house, we wouldn't be able to bury your father and me in the mud room in the old house."
