Chapter 208 Worry
Qin Yue touched her round belly and couldn't help but let out a satisfied sigh.
"I don't know how long it's been since I've had such a satisfying meal."
What used to be ordinary food is now considered precious and rare delicacies.
Lin Panpan also sighed in agreement.
"Life is really tough these days."
The base has reduced its recruitment much, and going out to scavenge is difficult in the freezing cold, yielding very little.
This is driving people to their doom.
Jiang Li sat by the stove, holding Pudding in her arms and stroking its head, making Pudding squint comfortably.
Her eyes were filled with disbelief.
"Has the base reduced its recruitment?"
How come we didn't know about this?
Liangzi took a sip of water, his face full of sorrow.
"The news may not have reached the villa area yet, so it's normal that you don't know."
The base lacked sufficient building materials, making it impossible to continue expanding the base.
I heard that the planting area didn't yield much harvest, and the price of food in the canteen has increased, which can be exchanged for points.
As a result, many positions at the base will no longer be filled, and many people will lose their source of points.
The base began to fall into disarray.
I was worried about what might happen inside the base. In that flimsy house we were staying in, an adult could easily break in with a little effort.
I just hurriedly moved out of this villa area.
Jiang Li and Ye Jingmo exchanged a glance, knowing that the situation inside the base was definitely worse than Liang Zi had just described.
Qin Yu frowned as well; this was not a good sign.
If unrest breaks out at the base, people's lives will only become more difficult.
Sensing that the atmosphere was a bit strange, Lin Panpan immediately spoke up:
"It's all my fault for talking about these things during the New Year."
With the arrival of the new year, we will surely have a better and better year ahead.
We've survived natural disasters like torrential rains, locust plagues, and extreme heat, haven't we?
As long as there is hope, nothing is a problem.
Qin Yue nodded, "After surviving the extreme cold, things will definitely get better and better."
We always adapt to our environment better.
After eating and drinking their fill and chatting, everyone went home.
After Ye Jingmo finished washing up, her hair was slightly damp.
He came to the bedside and saw Jiang Li lying on the bed, staring blankly at the ceiling.
He lay down next to Jiang Li and reached out to pull her into his arms.
"What are you thinking about? You seem so lost in thought."
Ye Jingmo pinched Jiang Li's cheek to bring her back to her senses.
Jiang Li turned to face Ye Jingmo, her tone serious.
"Brother Mo, do you think there's a chance of a riot breaking out in the base if things continue like this? Could it spread to the villa area?"
"If Liangzi says this, a riot will definitely break out in the base if this continues for a long time."
That depends on how those in power handle it.
However, you underestimate the power of those politicians. Perhaps they have already discovered the problem and are discussing solutions.
The water pipes in our villa area have been painstakingly repaired by them, and the base will not allow anyone to damage them.
Therefore, as long as the base exists, the villa area will remain stable.
Don't overthink it.
Ye Jingmo ruffled Jiang Li's hair, making it stand upside down.
Jiang Li, comforted by Ye Jingmo's words, sighed softly.
I really hope the worst doesn't happen.
She still wanted to live a peaceful life.
"Go to sleep, I'm here."
Jiang Li leaned against Ye Jingmo's chest, listening to his strong heartbeat, and slowly fell asleep.
After listening to Jiang Li's breathing become steady, Ye Jingmo pulled the blanket up for her and also fell asleep.
