Chapter 69 Approaching
She made an appointment for express delivery on her mobile phone, then put the five large packed boxes into the space, went out, and drove to her university.
——Yes, she deliberately set the mailing address to the university, not the community where she currently lives.
She was driving on the road, feeling a little heavy.
Although they were having a great time talking in the group chat just now, she really didn't dare to be careless.
She didn't want to expose the place where she lived now to people she knew, so she changed the mailing address, and in order to avoid unnecessary complications, she even went to mail it in person.
It's not that she has much doubts about her former friends, it's just that she must be so when faced with the issue of the end of the world. If anything goes wrong in Wanli, it could lead to disaster.
And she is unwilling to face disaster.
Whether she is selfish or timid, she just wants to work hard to protect herself with the golden finger of professional self-protection. The end of the world will mess up the world, and she just wants to avoid adding new chaos.
I rushed from my residence in the west to the university in the east and pretended to take the packing box out of the trunk. The staff routinely checked the contents and began to seal the box with tape.
Wei Jiao heard the tape squeaking and squeaking. She thought for a moment and asked, "I'm afraid the box will be damaged if it's too heavy. If it's wrapped like this, it won't break, right?"
The staff wiped off the sweat and patted the lower half of the box that was wrapped so tightly that only the tape could be seen: "It can't be broken. The tape can still be carried around the box even if it's torn. I'll wrap it around a few more times for you."
As he said that, he rolled the box on the tape with skill and strength, and wrapped it around and up and down several times.
Wei Jiao thanked her gratefully, and the other party waved her hand indifferently, pasted the express receipt, picked up her phone and started to check out. After everything was done, she nodded to Wei Jiao: "Okay, just wait for the courier to take it away. ”
Wei Jiao said thanks again, turned around and drove home.
When she got home, she breathed a sigh of relief. Looking at her empty schedule, she felt a strange sense of relief——
On the one hand, for a character like hers, it is really relaxing to finally have no plans pressing on her; but on the other hand, this relaxation is based on the gradual approach of the end of the world...
Forget it, she shook her head. It was not the time to be truly free yet, and there was still a lot of space and supplies waiting for her to clean up!
In the following days, she really stayed behind closed doors and worked hard at home every day.
I have already finished all the recipes in my head, and even cooked each dish more than once. After all, we are humans and not machines, so the taste may be slightly different each time.
She began to delve into popular recipes on the Internet again, and she knew enough not to touch the particularly troublesome dishes. Instead of spending that time and energy, she might as well do other things.
There are many food sharing bloggers on the Internet. She specializes in selecting bloggers who do not cook hard dishes and only share some simple and easy-to-learn things. By the way, she also uses a special plug-in to extract all the blog posts of these bloggers and save them as documents.
Such as various tips for cooking instant noodles, Internet celebrity desserts that can be made at home, simple toast, quick breakfast sandwiches...
These are small things that are not troublesome to make, but they are quite fun. She followed the blogger's instructions and filled up several yogurt oatmeal cups like building blocks. When she felt like it, she would also decorate several yogurt fruit bowls.
Speaking of fruits, I was naturally spoiled for choice. In addition to cutting them into cubes and packing them into boxes, I also made some other small attempts, such as cutting cantaloupe into long pieces and skewering them on wooden sticks, and pretending to be from a tourist. Bought at the paradise.
Or just skewer a few candied haws on a small wooden skewer, boil syrup and roll a few mini candied haws on your own; you even learn knife skills online to create a few realistic shapes that don't add much to the taste.
The temperature is high and the sun is strong, which makes it easier for her to dry clothes to some extent. Underwear goes into the washing machine first, followed by underwear and bedding. They are all washed, dried and put away.
The rest of the time, she almost spends her time struggling with download projects. It has been almost two months since her last online shopping. Many film and television bloggers also have new resources to share. She will regularly browse through them every day before going to bed. Add new resources.
In addition, there are picture websites and design resource websites. She changed her mentality and regarded this as relaxation time - although cutting fruits and making desserts is quite interesting, it is still less interesting than the words "playing computers".
Sitting in front of the computer, browsing the things you like to watch and downloading them, is not a kind of computer play.
In the midst of this, she was finally able to find time to decorate the fitness corner.
The living room was cleared and placed with treadmills, elliptical machines and spinning bikes, as well as dumbbell racks, boxing bags and pull-ups with single and parallel bars. There was also a roll of yoga mats and a fitness ball, and a small Pilates core bed. The living room is full.
If there wasn't enough space, she really wanted to put up the Pilates swing bed.
So big, so majestic!
Of course, not everything is put into use. For example, she will always ignore the treadmill unconsciously, causing it to become a mascot. There is no particularly detailed fitness plan. Generally, it is divided into points, which equipment depends on the mood. The group is almost there.
Now that she has things to do every day, she just takes time to exercise to maintain her strength and relax her body and mind. If she is particularly tired, she doesn't make much arrangements, and she mainly does it for fun.
After trying them all, she placed another set of the same ones in the space.
It was okay if the range of activities was limited to the equipment, but even though sports like boxing didn't require much space, she always felt cramped in the living room.
There are also Pilates core beds and swing beds. The movements do not take up much area, but when stretching, I always feel that it will be more comfortable if the surrounding space is larger.
As a result, she developed new uses for the "custom environment" function of the space.
She originally wanted to use this function to pretend to travel around the world after the apocalypse, but now she can make up a fictional sports classroom that she is satisfied with.
It can be a tall white house with warm wooden decoration and vibrant green plants, a tall floor-to-ceiling window, the outside scenery can be switched at will, the sun is shining and very warm, and the bustling city can be considered a quiet place, or Thunderstorms rumbling and snow falling are all a simple enjoyment.
Or simply move it outdoors, where the wooden platform under the eaves faces the deep courtyard or the scenery of the four seasons; further outside, move it to the plain or the seaside, spread a yoga mat, and truly relax your body and mind.
With the help of exercise and a golden environment, she didn't feel much irritated despite being busy every day.
During this period, even though the temperature was getting higher day by day, the express delivery system was still holding up. The packages she sent arrived at the recipient's hands safely, which made Wei Jiao breathe a sigh of relief.
The news is getting more and more chaotic these days. All walks of life are working from home, but car accidents are still happening one after another. Reports of fires, even small explosions, and heatstroke and fainting are gradually casting the shadow of death in panic.
The friend who received the express delivery was shocked by the size and weight of the box, and asked her how to send it from the university. The group chat became active for a while, but Wei Jiao was no longer able to deal with it and could only deal with it casually.
But what pleased her was that after checking the contents of the apocalyptic gift package, although her friends complained in the group with questions, in the end everyone spontaneously stocked up on more supplies, and after communicating with each other, they checked and filled in the gaps, which somewhat alleviated the problem. Something about her guilt.
