Reborn back to college to have a love affair

Chapter 181 Home

It can be considered as returning to Beijing early, as the Spring Festival holiday is not over yet.

This Spring Festival, everyone is praying for the southern city of Wu, but some large state-owned enterprises in the capital have already heard the news and taken action.

After Xia Qing returned, the capital was not under lockdown.

I don’t dare go out to buy things.

Many things are out of stock in the supermarket, and the prices of various vegetables at the small vegetable stalls in the community have increased ridiculously.

Because they were afraid of contact with people, everyone was cautious of each other.

Fortunately, Beijing supermarkets, Meituan, and Taobao all have express delivery services for buying groceries, and the two of them bought several large bags of items.

The courier left at the door.

Cui Jinsong took safety precautions and went out to get it.

There are hardly any people on the road anymore.

Within two days, cases were reported in a certain district in Beijing.

The company has notified us to stay at home first and wait for further notice.

At that time, Xia Qing thought it would be over soon and that she would have a few more days of vacation.

But later, as they spent longer and longer periods of time at home, Xia Qing and Cui Jinsong both started working online.

In order not to affect each other, Xia Qing suggested that she go upstairs and Cui Jinsong go downstairs.

Cui Jinsong refused, as he was worried that going in and out like this would be risky, after all, the community had begun daily disinfection in the corridors.

Xia Qing thought about it and agreed.

Then he and Cui Jinsong isolated themselves downstairs.

The advantage of working from home is that you don’t have to worry about being seen by your boss when you’re slacking off. The disadvantage is that remote communication is not as convenient as face-to-face communication, even with online meetings.

Sometimes, both people have meetings.

One held a meeting in the master bedroom and the other held a meeting in the second bedroom.

Xia Qing is responsible for the review of various projects, so there are many small meetings.

Then, after the review of each project meeting, there will be a general meeting of leaders and experts to communicate time, report on the agenda and make various preparations, and contact by phone or online.

There is a backlog of electronic documents that need to be printed out and signed and stamped.

Later, the situation improved and the company required a 50% attendance rate for each department.

Xia Qing was about to go to the company, but she didn't dare to take public transportation, so Cui Jinsong became her exclusive driver.

Xia Qing only needs to go two days a week, and everyone schedules their shifts online.

The company leaders take turns handling some documents that require signature and approval.

There used to be more than 300 people in one department, but now half of them are gone, and everyone has to work at alternate workstations.

I wore N95 the whole time. Masks were also a scarce commodity at that time. Fortunately, the company distributed masks to employees according to the number of days they worked, so there was no situation where some places did not have masks.

However, everyone is also very frugal. After all, sometimes you accidentally use up one, and it would be very dangerous if you don’t have a spare one, and N95s are hard to buy.

Therefore, people on the Internet have started teaching how to recycle N95 masks.

Cui Jinsong also took great pains to purchase masks for his company. Large companies like Xia Qing's have channels, especially in critical times.

However, private enterprises like Cui Jinsong rely on their own accumulated connections and channels.

Xia Qing asked the colleague in charge of purchasing for help, but at the moment, her own company's supplies were not enough. After all, this kind of supplies are generally supplied to hospitals and other health institutions and government agency personnel who need to be on duty.

Later, Cui Jinsong purchased a small number of masks through one of his classmates in Beijing. For the safety of his employees, he ordered all employees to work from home, except those with special requirements from Party A.

Xia Qing is Party A. Her company requires all Party B personnel to work from home as much as possible. If there are special needs and they have to come to the site, they must first contact Party A's project manager to report, and then obtain a valid nucleic acid test certificate within 3 days.

Later, the situation at the airport rebounded again, and many people outside came back.

Although they were all quarantined, some people still developed symptoms after being released from quarantine.

The company began to require no more than 30% attendance.

Xia Qing goes to the company once a week to handle some administrative work, such as printing, signing and stamping.

Some documents will be printed this week and handed over to the designated person's desk, and will be processed when that colleague comes to work on site.

Work efficiency has slowed down a lot, but there is nothing that can be done about it.

After all, at this time, ensuring safety is the most important thing.

The time spent at home is intermittent and the time spent working on site is not regular.

At that time, Xia Qing and Cui Jinsong couldn't go anywhere to exercise and stayed at home all day. When he was not so busy, Cui Jinsong would research various foods and cook meal after meal for Xia Qing, which made Xia Qing a little fat.

When she video-chatted with her family, her mother said she had gained weight.

This made Xia Qing start to complain about why Cui Jinsong made so much food every day?

Cui Jinsong laughed at her: "If I don't deal with food, I might deal with you. What do you think I should do?"

Well, I'm fat so what.

The old man is too strong, and being sealed with him has both advantages and disadvantages.

Later, with the travel code and routine nucleic acid testing, everyone has adapted to the policy of dynamic zero-clearing and precise closure.

Basically, we have resumed our normal get off work and rest time. It was a gradual process at the beginning, and we were all very cordial when we met each other wearing masks.

During this period, the company still did not recommend employees to leave Beijing, so Xia Qing never went home, and neither did Cui Jinsong.

But I told him a piece of news.

Jiang Shao originally planned to go to the south, but the lockdown policy in his hometown was stricter than that in Beijing. Not only were people not allowed to leave, they were not even allowed to enter, regardless of whether they had a red code or not.

Cui Jinsong knew this because Jiang Shao contacted him after the New Year.

He got some things done for his mother and also sought favors for his father and family.

At that time, we were in fear and worry of the lockdown. Nothing was more important than life. My parents and relatives at home were all fine, and Xia Qing's family was also fine.

After Cui Jinsong asked Xia Qing what she thought, they chose to forgive each other.

Xia Qing added Jiang Shao on WeChat, but as for the QQ account that she had blocked, Xia Qing had already cancelled it.

During the lockdown, people were paying attention to and discussing the situation across the country and the capital every day.

At that time, Xia Qing was actually very scared. She was very worried about her family and friends.

I call home every day and occasionally check in with friends to learn about my recent situation.

Miaomiao is not coming back. She has a boyfriend. She will settle down in her hometown and take care of her parents. It's good.

Linlin and Li Chao came back, but because of the sensitive situation at that time, they did not meet each other.

They experienced the lockdown, the reopening, the resignation process, and then left again.

The entire process is online communication.

We couldn’t meet in person, so even the final farewell had to be said online.

Every status in the circle of friends makes people realize the true meaning of life again.

People must live first, and everything else comes second.

At that time, maybe women were more emotional. She was glad that there was someone to accompany her when she faced her fear. At that time, she was afraid of hearing bad news every day, and it seemed that she was forced to be happy every day.

Afraid of getting sick, afraid of having a fever, afraid of being alone, afraid of Cui Jinsong not being around.

At that time, just hearing words like isolation, lockdown, and home stay made me feel like I was going to have a heart attack.
