The emperor takes turns to do it, come to my house next year

The proverb "The emperors take turns, come to my house next year" means:

"It means that anyone can be an emperor or a high-ranking official."

There is no emperor in today's society, but for us little people, things can still come to us at any time. If you live in the United States, it's the new crown.

Last Friday, my girlfriend suddenly told me that an employee in her company who was diagnosed with the new crown came to work. Not only did it not come to the day when she should self-isolate, but she did not even wear a mask when she came to the company.

I quickly reminded her that no one else wears it, we put it on ourselves. The old beauty has long stopped paying attention to these things in public. What personal distance, washing hands before and after meals, etc. have long been forgotten.

So she lasted a whole day in the company; I also worked a day in that terrible National Cyber Security Center.

When I got home at night, my girlfriend's condition was not bad. It was my allergy all summer, and the whole nasal cavity was not ventilated.

By Saturday, however, things had changed. We hurriedly found a Walgreen that could test Rapid NAAT for inspection. That day is gone, we made an appointment to Sunday.

The NAAT test results only took two hours, and I received an email from the lab that day. She is positive, I am negative.

Just like that, we asked her company for leave, and the text message was written by me, in a heavy tone. Even if it is for production, for the boss to make money, we must pay attention to the health of employees, right? I can't go to work for at least a week now. Personally, Monday is the first day of the fall semester, and now my girlfriend must have missed the class.

My boss's side is not bad, let me work from home. I'm negative anyway, so I don't need a vacation.

But it was also the first time that I didn't sleep on the sofa because of my own fault...


A week passed in a flash. She has been taking care of her girlfriend at home to recuperate. The first time I got the new crown, I really lost all my sense of taste, smell, cough and dizziness.

I have seen the video of Sanjin, who is also from Tianjin, on Tiktok. I know that I can’t get special medicines when I go to the hospital, not to mention that the special medicines today are life-saving medicines for the elderly and patients with diabetes; side effect. Let's just keep it at home. Anyway, we've had three shots of the vaccine, and it won't be so serious if it doesn't help.

I also said that it was too different to share the joys and sorrows. For the past three years, I have been afraid of getting this disease, and I can't stand this isolation method, but now I can think about it.

My girlfriend told me to knock on wood, don't curse yourself.


Today is another Sunday. We went to Walgreen again for testing.

I know that many people are fine within five days, although I don’t know if they have turned negative, but the rule here is that if there are no symptoms, they should go to school and go to work while wearing a mask.

In fact, we really don't know whether those who came back around us are really sick or not, or whether they have really tested negative. Only you know these things.

The results of the test again came out, and we were still one yin and one yang.

well! Seems to have to stay at home. We don't care what others do. At least you have to be responsible for the people around you. Those who are positive must not run out and touch others. This is also the main reason for our infection.

stay at home...
