Chapter 250 Join in
Wang Dali thought that he should have reached the county town where he planned to stop for a rest, but he hadn't arrived there yet. He also saw that there was no fork in the road ahead, which made him very curious.
Suddenly, a road sign not far away caught his attention. After he looked at it carefully, his heart skipped a beat.
"Oh no, we missed the intersection!"
Wang Dali asked the driver to stop the car slowly, because the truck Wang Dali was in was the lead truck, and the trucks behind him chose to stop after seeing his car stop.
The Su family members in the back carriage didn't understand why the car stopped, and they all leaned their heads out of the shed and looked outside.
They thought they had arrived at the county town, but when they looked outside they found that they were in a strange place, uninhabited and very desolate.
After Han Sen saw the surroundings, he helped Su Yunyun get out of the car and quickly walked to the first truck.
Wang Dali had already gotten out of the cab and stood by the road to observe. He saw Han Sen and Su Yunyun approach him first, followed by the four Su Ping brothers. "I'm sorry, the visibility is poor in this snowy day. I misread the road and missed the intersection to the county town. We may have to spend the night in the wilderness tonight!"
Wang Dali took the responsibility of missing the intersection to the county town and looked ashamed in front of the Su family.
After hearing what Wang Dali said, Su Yunyun knew that her previous worries had come true. "Then let's walk a little further and get off at the next intersection. Then we can find a guesthouse to stay in, right?"
"I know what you said. It should be possible, but I just calculated it in my mind and the answer is no!" Wang Dali showed a difficult expression, "Because we sped up in the afternoon, it was faster than expected, so our location is only about 2-3 hours away from the capital. If it doesn't snow, even if we miss the intersection to the county town, it doesn't matter. We just need to step on the accelerator a few more times and we can reach the capital, but now..."
"What happened now?" Su An was extremely anxious. There were a bunch of old people and children here. If they spent the night in the wilderness with freezing wind and snow, it would be no joke and something bad would happen!
"It's snowing now, and there's snow on the ground. The visibility is unclear and the road is slippery. It's too unsafe to drive." Wang Dali looked at Su An and told the actual situation honestly, "Especially when there are so many people in the car, we dare not take any risks!"
"We understand what you said," Su An walked back and forth on the road for a few steps, feeling the depth of the snow and the slippery road surface, "but it's late at night, it's snowing and the temperature is low. We are all grown men and can endure it, but what about the elderly, women, and children?"
Wang Dali and the drivers also started to worry. This is a practical problem!
So a lot of people started to worry.
Seeing that they had not come up with any effective solution, Su Yunyun decided to think of a solution herself.
She asked Han Sen to follow her and climbed into the car to find the coal stove and coal briquettes that had been prepared earlier. Looking at the number of coal briquettes, she felt a lot more at ease.
Then the two of them turned back to find Wang Dali, "Shall we stop here and rest today?"
Wang Dali looked at Su Yunyun, feeling a little uneasy. "Well, I've checked before. This section of the road is wide. It's safe for us to park on the side of the road."
"Okay, I got it!" Su Yunyun heard the answer she wanted and knew what she should do next. "Third brother, do you still have the plastic sheet you bought earlier?"
"...Yes, there are still quite a few. I thought the price was not bad, and I didn't know exactly how much I would need to build the shed, so I bought some more. I found that I didn't need that much when I built the shed before, so there are still some left." Su Kang was stunned for a moment, then said to Su Yunyun, "When I left, I stuffed it into the first truck."
\"Then find the extra plastic sheet, cut it into three pieces, and put them on each car. Everyone can use them to cover the quilt, otherwise the quilt will be soaked by the snowflakes, and then the bed will not be warm at all." Su Yunyun made arrangements with Su Kangxian.
At this time, everyone present looked at Su Yunyun, and saw Su Yunyun continue to speak in an orderly manner.
"Brother, there are coal briquettes and a coal stove in the car. Find a way to light the coal briquettes and start the fire in the coal stove."
"Brother, find 12 more bricks you brought. When the coal is lit, put the bricks on top and keep burning. When it's hot, change the bricks."
"Young man, use the bricks we have collected these days to build a simple stove first."
After Su Yunyun made arrangements for the four brothers of the Su family, she saw Li Yue's three sisters-in-law getting off the car, and continued to make arrangements, "Sister-in-law, you and the second and third sisters-in-law, go get another piece of our mutton soup ice basin, put the pot on the simple stove built by the young man, and heat the soup. We will all drink the mutton soup to dispel the cold, and then don't cook. Heat up the steamed buns at home before, and fill your stomach first, so you won't be hungry and cold."
After hearing this, Li Yue and the others immediately responded that it was no problem.
When they were about to turn around to prepare, Su Yunyun thought about it and spoke again, "We should still have a lot of brown sugar and ginger. When you make brown sugar ginger tea, put more brown sugar and ginger, and make the ginger tea thick. Drink it when it's cold at night to ensure that your body does not get cold."
Li Yue and the others nodded again, then turned and left.
Seeing that Su Ping and the others were about to turn around and take action, "Han Sen and I will take turns guarding the coal stove today and not let it go out. This way, we can keep burning bricks in a cycle. As long as a brick gets cold, a hot brick can be immediately replaced to ensure that the bed is always warm."
"Little sister, it's not enough for just the two of you. Let's arrange shifts and change shifts every two hours so that everyone can make it." Su Ping thought that Su Yunyun's proposal would make the two of them too tired. After all, there are many people in the Su family, and they can rotate every two hours.
Su Yunyun thought about it carefully and decided to follow Su Ping's suggestion and let everyone take turns to guard, so that everyone can maintain sufficient physical strength to survive this cold winter night.
"We'll join in, too," Wang Dali and the drivers were all impressed by Su Yunyun's calm arrangements. They also knew that the Su family would share the mutton soup with them later, and they would also have a share of the hot bricks. They felt guilty that so many people were stranded in the cold wilderness overnight because of their mistakes, so when they saw that there was something they could do, they immediately spoke up, hoping to share some of the burden.
Su Yunyun wanted to refuse at first, but when she saw the eager eyes of Wang Dali and the drivers, she sighed and said, "Okay, then you guys can join in too!"
