Happy life of a woman in the space apocalypse

Jian Wu was woken up by the alarm clock. As usual, she stretched out her hand to slap away the source of the alarm, but she slapped her flesh instead. She only regained consciousness after opening her eyes.

"Ahem, I didn't mean it."

"It's okay, you can clap a few more times if you like."

Pu Ruqing touched his face and took the opportunity to kiss his wife, waiting for the slap but it didn't come.

Jian Wu glared at the man who was grinning and continued to push forward.

"Daughter-in-law, don't get up yet. It's a bit cold today."

Pu Ruqing first sat up and went to get a thick nightgown before helping the man up.

"The doctor said that you must not rush when you get up, and take your time!"

"Should I do this in slow motion?"

Putting on her nightgown, Jian Wu pushed people away and got out of bed. She wanted to go to the bathroom quickly and her door almost hit someone's face.

"Wife, you need to let the water from the faucet run for a while before you can use it. The water is very cold now."

"Got it, go wash up next door."

"I haven't squeezed the toothpaste for you yet."

"I have grown arms."

Jian Wu no longer paid attention to the people outside. It would be none of her business if she was late for work anyway.

After washing up and going out, Jian Wu saw someone studying something in front of the wardrobe.

"what happened?"

"Wife, you choose the clothes. I'm not very satisfied with any of them."

When Jian Wu walked over, she saw the closet full of clothes, none of which were hers.

"Did you buy it new?"

"Well, I asked someone to buy some from other places, but they look so ordinary."

Jian Wu casually flipped through the books and saw that they were all the most popular styles at the time.

"Thank you, I like it very much."

"Really? I'll take you to pick out something better later."

"Why would you need so many? If you don't wear the same clothes at work, people will talk about you."

"We can only talk about it behind their backs. Let them be jealous."

"Okay, let's keep a low profile."

Pu Ruqing quickly nodded and cooperated obediently. If he couldn't even control his wife's freedom of dress, he should have no chance of survival.

Jian Wu picked out a high-necked black sweater and a black coat.

Pu Ruqing took out a white scarf and a pair of furry leather boots.

"You made me wear too much."

"It's not thick. You'll know it's cold when you go out."

After tying his wife's hair, the two of them went out. Uncle Ji, who was waiting downstairs, heard the noise and hurried to the kitchen to serve the meal. It was cold, so the food was being warmed in the pot.

Jian Wu saw half the table full of breakfast and wondered how early one had to get up to prepare so much.

"Young Madam, have a glass of warm water first."

"Thank you, Uncle Ji."

"No thanks, please don't be polite to me next time."

"it is good."

He was full with minced meat and egg custard, two steamed dumplings and a cup of milk. Pu Ruqing finished most of the rest. This guy really can eat.

When I left the living room, I felt a gust of cold wind blowing and realized that the weather in Taki City could change drastically overnight. Pu Ruqing hurriedly helped people get into the car.

"Let's go buy some candy first, and then buy some cakes and pastries to keep as snacks in the office."

"Well, don't buy anything too sweet."

A'tai accompanied them up to the office building carrying two cloth bags of candy. Secretary Xiang quickly took the bags and started distributing the wedding candies.

In less than half an hour, the whole building was in an uproar. Who could have thought that the leader got married quietly, and married Assistant Jian who had disappeared for several months.

Those who had tried to get close to Jian Wu before wanted to go upstairs and ask, but they knew that Assistant Jian had moved to the leader's office to work, so they had the desire but not the courage.

"Wife, these materials were given to you by Secretary Xiang. Just take your time to process them."

"it is good."

Pu Ruqing made a cup of red date tea for his wife before going to work. His daily workload was still very heavy.

Jian Wu did not bother him anymore and just flipped through the documents and read them slowly. When she saw the situation of applying for relief food in the local area, she realized that there was not enough food in the winter.

"Is there any grain being allocated to local areas as relief food now?"

Pu Ruqing took off his glasses and rubbed his eyes, which had been looking for almost two hours.

"No, in fact, the food supply in the city is not enough. Everyone has to line up early on the day of distribution. Some families can't even get the basic food until the end of the line."

"Is there no corresponding plan? How long can people starve?"

"We can only transfer money from places with higher grain production, but it's just a drop in the bucket and can't help everyone."

“Why not import from abroad?”

Pu Ruqing took out a document and handed it to his wife. The data on it made Jian Wu speechless. Even the Long City Government was short of money. Even if they imported some food, it would not be enough to distribute to everyone.

"Now that we have cultivated high-quality grains and increased fertilizer production, we can slowly get through life. People in the countryside are actually better off than those in the city, at least there are food subsidies in the mountains.

There are many families in the city with only one worker, and the food standard is not enough. So even if there is relief food, more will be distributed in the city, which is why many people think that only by becoming a city dweller can you live a good life.

In fact, it is all rosy on the outside, and it is just a nice name. Many families in the city need subsidies from their relatives in the countryside to make ends meet.”

"In fact, seeds and fertilizers are part of the reason for the low yield. Have you popularized the concept of irrigation and planting?"

Pu Ruqing sat next to his daughter-in-law to hear her advice.

“Look, it says here that in some places, in order to increase wheat production, they buried a dead pig in the field for compost.

It is true that animal carcasses can be used as fertilizer, but they must at least be decomposed, otherwise they will be harmful to crops and may even rot the roots of wheat.

The irrigation method also needs to be adapted to local conditions. It is not the same in every place. If there is less rain or a flood, the work will be in vain, and you may even have to go into debt to survive.

You didn't even start from the most basic scientific planting. If you could popularize it, would this kind of thing still happen?"

Jian Wu accurately took out the book about irrigation and composting from the study and waved it in front of Pu Ruqing.

"It's all well written, but no one has learned to do it. This is your biggest mistake. How many government employees do you have to support to do real work? Do you think that the country will be peaceful and the people will be safe just by sitting in the office and collecting salaries?"

Pu Ruqing listened to his wife's scolding with sparkling eyes, and thought about these words very humbly.

"It's true that I, as a leader, have not done my job well because the people below me cannot carry out the orders given by the superiors. My wife, do you have any more detailed suggestions? We can have a meeting to study them and then implement them layer by layer."

"Well, I need some time to think about it. You know I'm not a professional. I should consult a crop expert to come up with some plans."

"This way, you write first without getting too tired, and then I'll organize a discussion, and you can sit in and give me some advice in private."

"I've become the leader, and you're a very incompetent leader."

"Yes, yes, I will try my best to correct it."

Jian Wu glared at someone, but still decided to look through the relevant books in the space and copy them down when no one was around. After all, she had never farmed before.
