Chapter 62: What's the Big Deal About the Temperature Dropping??

Just as she reached the entrance and before she could go out, she heard people talking outside. He Xing, what are these things? Why did the people from the base send them to you? It was the voice of the middle-aged woman on the sixth floor. Du Yue had not seen the middle-aged woman for more than two months. She did not expect that the woman would even know He Xing's name. However, why did this woman still like to ask questions?

Just as she was thinking about it, she heard the woman speak again, So, it's that neighbor of yours. She doesn't go out at all. I don't know what she's doing all cooped up at home. By the way, I saw that you helped her carry a lot of boxes up yesterday. Are they all food? She doesn't go out nor does she work in the base, so where did she get so much food?

Du Yue frowned. Just as she was about to open the door and go out, she heard He Xing's voice. If you have nothing to do, go find some cotton to make a thicker quilt. Haven't you heard that the temperature is going to drop soon? Are you still in the mood to inquire about other people's affairs?

Of course, I've heard about it. So what if the temperature drops? What's the big deal? The middle-aged woman said disdainfully, Right now, it's like the sky is on fire. It's so hot that I'm about to die. If the temperature really drops, that's a good thing! I won't be afraid even if it's -30 to -40 degrees Celsius. When we moved, I brought everything with me, including several winter clothes!

Du Yue scoffed in her heart when she heard the woman's nonchalant tone. -30 to -40 degrees? It would not be long before the woman's wish would be fulfilled! By then, not only would the temperature meet her requirements, but it would also give her a lot more than she wanted!

In her previous life, the extreme cold came suddenly. That night, the temperature dropped from 40 degrees above zero to -30 degrees. By the second day, the temperature had dropped to -37 degrees. The temperature continued to drop every day until it dropped to -60 degrees Celsius.

Du Yue had originally planned to go out, but after hearing the woman's words, she dispelled the idea. When she heard the middle-aged woman turn around and head downstairs, He Xing, who was in the corridor, also returned to his unit and closed the door. Du Yue stood at the door for another 10 minutes before she took the lunchbox out of the interspace and walked out of the house to He Xing's house.

Du Yue knocked on the door of He Xing's house. In less than a minute, the sound of someone walking could be heard from inside. He Xing was not surprised to see Du Yue. Instead, he smiled and said, Did you hear that woman from downstairs talking nonsense? Don't be angry. Just ignore her in the future.

Du Yue was smiling too. I know. I can't be bothered to talk with her.

The base had already made the announcement that the temperature was going to drop and reminded everyone to quickly stock up on all the supplies that could be used to resist the extreme cold. However, some people did not believe it. Du Yue could only think of one thing to say to such a person, Kind reminders are useless on the stubborn.'

Du Yue passed the lunchbox to He Xing. I made some braised pig trotters with soybean and some rice. I'll share some with you. The base did sell canned pork, but the price was expensive. One can cost eight contribution points.

He Xing took the lunchbox in surprise. Thank you! It's my fortune to meet such a beautiful and kind lady like you!

Du Yue could not help but laugh when she heard He Xing's exaggerated thanks. He was always like this, not hiding his feelings at all. It was quite interesting. Du Yue looked at him with a smile. You're exaggerating. I'll take my leave first.

I'm telling the truth! I'll return the lunchbox to you after I'm done eating and have it cleaned, He Xing said with a serious face.

Alright.

When Du Yue got home, she returned to her bedroom and prepared to eat. She also ate the braised pig trotters with soybeans, but she had a plate of spicy cabbage and fried potatoes as well.

While she was eating, Du Yue kept thinking about when the extreme cold would come in this life. After all, the hot summer in this life came earlier than in her previous life, and she was not sure if the extreme cold would also come earlier. Based on the timeline of her previous life, the extreme cold should arrive next week.

However, Du Yue was not sure now. After dinner, she took out all the emergency supplies from her interspace. She took out all sorts of heaters and positioned them so that they were facing her bed. Even if the temperature plummeted, she could still power these devices immediately. These preparations were far from enough. Du Yue even removed her current bedding.

The mattress was perfect for sleeping now, but it would not be enough when the weather was extremely cold. Therefore, Du Yue found a large quilt that weighed more than 10 pounds and placed it on the bed. An electric blanket was placed on top of the quilt, followed by a flannel bed sheet and an ordinary bed sheet.
