Surviving in the Wilderness: The Sealed Diary of a Shanghai Housewife

Text | Fellini

The writing material of this article comes from an ordinary Shanghai citizen. She recorded the family stories in the recent period of time and provided them to me, hoping to show more people in Fellini's way and see a Shanghai The helplessness and struggle of the family in the context of the times.

I guarantee that all the details of the article are from the original timeline record, but for personal privacy protection and other understandable reasons, I have to adjust it slightly.

The "wilderness" is all around us, a gap in a large concrete forest. The Shanghai housewife's husband lived in a NIO car for six days, even though his home was just a stone's throw away.

It was an ordinary day in the forest. A drop of sticky rosin landed on the free-crawling beetle. The seal gradually solidified, and the beetle struggled.

【Sealed Diary】

｜First day Monday, April 4

Lao K (the housewife's husband) called me early in the morning and told me that the nucleic acid was abnormal, so I could stabilize.

I don't panic at all. Q: Either Lennon will come back right away?

Yijiao, how can I come back? I'm the only one left behind in the work unit, and the others are sealed in my own home. If I really get sick, wouldn't my return hurt you and your neighbors?

I'm still a little impatient: I'm going to be a volunteer to serve the neighbors, a seafood spree will start a group soon, I'm going to get me to be responsible, if I don't come back, I'll stay in the unit, other customs .

｜The next day, Tuesday, April 5

At 10:00 in the morning, I participated in the online sharing meeting of community volunteers, and actively requested to participate in the purchasing group. It's a pity that my plan was rejected. Ira said that seafood is not a necessity and needs to give way to meat, custard and milk. Well, then I'll do it myself, without taking up everyone's resources, Ira agreed.

After a busy day, contact customers to finalize details, make plans, and make registration links. At ten o'clock in the evening, the group was successfully formed, and we just waited for the payment to receive the goods.

Just busy, old K came to WeChat and said that the nucleic acid results did not come out that day. He was starting to get a little nervous, and it didn't feel good. I sent a few audios circulating in the society, I listened to it for more than ten seconds, and deleted it. Annoying.

｜The third day Wednesday, April 6

At eight o'clock in the morning, the old K called, something was wrong, and the code turned red. He didn't eat breakfast, and the property management of the unit building had kicked him out of the building and asked Yi to do the nucleic acid again. He received a call from the CDC next door, informing him that he was positive. The square cabin was definitely going. Old K immediately drove towards the inside of the house in three minutes. The car was almost out of gas, and he turned into the gas station. People say: Red code, swept away, no addition.

Old K didn't enter the community, and the community wouldn't let him in. I made a list. I packed it in a suitcase and threw it to him across the iron railings of the community. Old K's car was parked in the parking lot 100 meters across from the community, sitting in the car and waiting.

Several hours passed. No pickup car appeared.

This incident happened to Mr. K. I feel that I may have a problem with the seafood group purchase tomorrow. Jinqun asked if any neighbors would like to go to Chenguang to help with the delivery of goods. No one rings. In a fit of rage, the group purchase was cancelled. Ira is right, seafood is a luxury, and you won't starve if you don't eat it.

Reported the situation of old K with the company leaders. The leader is very heart-warming, talking about any difficulties in finding a company. Of course, I can't trouble the unit any more, but the gossip is pleasant.

Knocked at six o'clock at night. The car that picked up the cabin still couldn't be hit by a gun. I was in a hurry and started making various calls. The CDC line was always busy, but 110 was connected. The police who answered the phone patiently verified the situation for me, and told me that I had asked the other party to expeditiously handle it. Don’t go anywhere and wait there.

Had to let the old K trapped in the car.

I can't sleep all night.

｜Day 4 Thursday, April 7

Wake up at five in the morning to cook for Mr. K. Call Yi at 6 o'clock and ask Yi to come out to the iron fence on the west side of the community and wait for me to hand out the breakfast. The old K was so angry, I blamed me for waking up Yi. It was good that I was sleepy, but I remembered that the energy was consumed.

Considering that Yi was already red, I didn't care, I just said: Do you want to add some more supplies to the car?

Old K's throat became even thicker when he heard it: What do you mean, what's in my car is enough to eat for five days, let me give it to me again, plan to let me live in the car for ten days? ah?

I almost fell over. The way of thinking of a straight man Oh, I eat Ilao sour. However, it sounds like Yi Zhong is very angry, and I am quite happy, so I can just say a few words when I talk about it.

Bring your breakfast. When I came back, I remembered that I had the duty to inform the neighbors in the same building that the old K was already red -- a K of hearts. Unexpectedly, my frankness gained unprecedented understanding from my neighbors. As soon as the door was opened after lunch, the door was already filled with various foods fed by the neighbors, as well as the antigen self-test box, which was sent to Mr. K.

I was moved and immediately decided to resume group buying of seafood spree packages. You must buy it yourself and give it to everyone. My candor moved the seafood delivery company. Ira crossed me from the blacklist and helped me get the follow-up delivery as quickly as possible.

The car sent to the cabin still did not come. Old K told me at night, it seems that we must survive in the wilderness.

I asked, how can Nong shush ah.

Old K smiled and said: I always use a mineral water bottle to pick it up.

I said: align. Old K said: I have read "The Oil Seller" by Nong, but I know it by hand.

How big is it?

There was an educational institution in the parking lot. There was no one there for a long time, and the door was not closed. I slipped in and solved it. I packed it in a disposable lunch box sent by Nong and disposed it as medical waste.

I asked, there is a green belt next to it, it is ok if you don't come to the race.

Old K gave me a blank look (I didn't see it, but I was sure): I don't want to be ashamed of that, now who doesn't have a mobile phone, how can I do it if I ask for a TikTok?

I asked, how can Nong come to pick up a lunch box at night and encounter a policeman on the way? Old K said, how can I do it? After checking it, I have a red code. What is the use of the police? I have been taken to the shelter a long time ago. I just happened to be going.

Old K said that there are two types of people on the road the most: couriers, and people who are towing boxes. The trolley case friend is basically the same as him, who is diagnosed but has nowhere to go outside.

I was almost sleepy when I received the voice of old K, and I cried a little, saying that I accidentally opened the wrong mineral water bottle just now, and took a small sip of my...

｜Day 5 Friday, April 8

I heard a story early in the morning, a colleague in the company was positive, and no one took him away for isolation for seven days. On the eighth day, he recovered and turned negative. At this time, the car pulling to the square cabin also came, and Yi honestly went to the square cabin in the exhibition hall. Test again, still negative. The little leader of the volunteers said: Come here, be a volunteer.

Mr. K solved the breakfast by himself, and asked me to send him the next two meals at 1 pm. He also instructed: no more, 1.5 meals, plus a pack of napkins, follow the instructions, don’t add anything more. There are plenty of resources in the car.

After saying it well, Old K added a sentence: Don't urge CDC to pick me up. This place is fine.

Stewed beef, eel, asparagus in oyster sauce, lettuce, stir-fried vegetables, multi-grain rice, and a mango milkshake. I ran to the iron fence of the Ximen green belt, but I didn't see anyone, so I shouted softly, "Where are the people?"

Old K jumped out with a head: here and here.

Passed a milkshake first. When I saw it, I got angry and said: If it doesn't meet the requirements, I don't want it. I suddenly got angry: Don't be ignorant of current affairs! I stuffed the food in my hand and turned around and left.

Old K's voice chased after him: It's so hot, the food can't be saved, what can I do if my belly is broken?

Ignore Iraq.

Remember, I am stronger than Lennon in the ability to survive in the wild, and everything obeys the command. Old K was still shouting, but I didn't look back.

Old K is not angry, that's what this person is good at. In the afternoon, wechat me and told me that I just washed an oily head with 500ml of mineral water. Feeling: Is a bottle of water enough? Humans are such a waste of resources.

After lunch, the seafood arrived, and it was immediately distributed and delivered from house to house. I felt a lot more comfortable, and the relationship between the neighbors was unprecedentedly harmonious. I have lived here for almost 20 years, and this is the first time I have the opportunity to be so enthusiastic.

It is already the fourth day of the old K Wilderness Survival. At night, he couldn't hold his screen, and sent a text message to the contact person, saying that he had sufficient resources in the car, a slight sore throat but no high fever, and his condition gradually improved. people?

I was angry and funny when I heard it. Pushing friends, is it addicting to survival in the wild?

｜Day 6 Saturday, April 9

Today I am going to feed: stir-fried pickles with wooden fish, green beans with ham, stewed tofu with chopped tomato and scallops, plus 4 slices of beef from yesterday, stir-fried vegetables, the main food is mushroom sauce mixed with noodles, and a small piece of pumpkin. The neighbors fed several boxes of fresh milk and had to eat quickly, so they made a pumpkin milkshake and two bottles of water. 2 boxes of vegetables + 1 box of main food + 1 small bag of fruit + 1 small bottle of milkshake.

handover to point. Be good, give the milkshake last. Old K looked at the three lunch boxes, and his face became stiff again. Disapprove.

In the afternoon, I will give instructions again: prepare 2 pillow mats, the oldest one, throw it away after use, and one nail clipper, don't need a set, listen carefully, give whatever you want, don't be overwhelmed. I want another shirt, the blue plaid flannel shirt, one green and one gray long, two green, and the old one. I rubbed Iraq: Hey, these two green pants are almost old, which one is suitable?

Light color is old.

Do you want an electric kettle? Unconditional operation, don't.

Next instructions: 2 bottles of Fanta, 2 sofa cushions (no covers). I'll go to bed again, handover at 9pm.

The handover at night is more harmonious.

｜Day 7 Sunday, April 10

Today is Sunday, a difficult day. There is no nucleic acid test and no antigen test requirement. However, I heard that yesterday's test may not count, and I have to repeat it. The reason is that the new program uploads only the ID number and test results, and no specific address information. Tired to death.

Lao K's lunch menu: blanched basil, scrambled eggs with tomato, 1/4 salted chicken, 2 small pieces of eel, 2 pieces of marinated dried fragrant, a small corner of steamed pumpkin, about 300ml blueberry milkshake. The lunch box with the smaller one was not full, and the two meals were still separated. Old K expressed his satisfaction.

Old K took a temperature of 37.3, and his throat was still a little sore. There were two bars in the antigen self-test.

In the afternoon, Mr. K received a call from the disease control, which seemed to be a call from a robot, and asked two questions, are you XXX himself? Yes. Did you know you are a positive patient? Answer: Not sure, I want to make a statement. The robot ignored her and hung up the phone.

After a while, someone from the so-called Centers for Disease Control and Prevention called for a diagnosis from his personal mobile phone and asked him to wait in place.

The car to pick up the cabin still didn't come.

｜Day 8 Monday, April 11

Lao K serves noon: blanched lettuce, cucumber, spinach and pine nuts, pan-fried tuna fillet, egg stewed egg, braised thick louver, cranberry milkshake, a bottle of 1.5L water, and a box of Lotus Qingwen.

Old K is in a hurry: the battery is currently out of power, and it is urgent to take a line and a car to start. Windows, doors, trunk cannot be opened.

At the same time, I received an information letter from the neighborhood committee from the landlord:

1. The confirmed cases, even if the antigen self-test is negative later, are still confirmed cases. Doctors will not come to the door to review the nucleic acid again, and even if the nucleic acid is negative again, it does not mean any conclusion, and the isolation will not be released. Only after the professional staff judges that the patient is not infectious, can the release of the isolation list be issued.

2. Regarding the individual needs of the designated shelters, the neighborhood committee reports the needs, but it does not mean that they can definitely be met. The specific needs are still based on the overall arrangement of the transfer.

3. If residents who need to be transported according to regulations refuse to be transported, the current policy is that the entire building will continue to be closed and controlled, the risk of residents in the building will double, and the community will have no hope of unblocking. Residents who refuse to cooperate are more likely to lift the closure and return to normal life.

As soon as several factors were superimposed, the two quickly reached an agreement and actively strived to enter the cabin.

It happened that the neighbors in the building said that a new square cabin was built near the house, and the office building was renovated. It was not bad, so I immediately contacted the neighborhood committee to arrange a report. To go to the square cabin, we have to solve the self-driving car that Old K lived for 6 days. I called the 4S shop, but no one answered, 110, and it didn't work. I wanted to get the next best thing. I wanted to put a cover on the car cover, drag the things out and leave. But where will I get the car cover in half an hour?

Or my brain is running fast. As soon as the owner group sent the help message, there were 3 replies in less than 5 minutes. I immediately contacted and solved it.

After cleaning up, news from the neighborhood committee came, and we waited for the special car to pick me up after dinner.

Old K's life as a homeless man is coming to an end.

｜Ninth day Tuesday, April 12

Old K was not dragged to the shelter near his home.

At 8 o'clock last night, a bus stopped at the entrance of the community. Old K got on the bus and went to a nearby warehouse to wait for a transfer. After that, the bus was pulled to the four-leaf clover and lined up to check in. After queuing for a long time, it was almost time to say that the warehouse was out of stock, and then get on the bus. This morning at 4:30 in the morning, I went to a remote place in the suburbs, which is also a warehouse converted into a square cabin.

Old K only slept for two hours all night. Wake up and find someone to shave a bald hammer.

Old K's voice was very calm, and he said that some had breakfast, and the treatment only had Lianhua Qingwen, but he had a bed, which was more comfortable than sleeping in a car.

In our community, the antigen test was originally required at 7:00 a.m. last night, but it was temporarily changed to a nucleic acid test. I hope this round of tests will be useful, and we will quickly restore normal order.

｜Day 10 Wednesday, April 13

After lunch and old K video. Yi is in good spirits. He said that he did nucleic acid in the morning, but the results have not yet come out. The place where he lives has a window to bask in the sun, which is equivalent to a presidential suite.

Old K said that the patient who lived with the patient, Lao Wang, was oolonged, and the test report did not come out. He was told that he was positive, and he came in in a daze.

The atmosphere of helping each other in our building has reached a new climax. Some time ago, the group was ruthless. As a result, there were too many dishes to eat. Everyone put the extra dishes in the hallway at the entrance of the corridor for everyone to use for free. The aunt who made 502 regretted leaving home to live with her son.

Our building originally planned to arrange nucleic acid for 3 consecutive days. I don’t know if it was because of the weather or what. Today, the antigen self-test was changed in the morning and evening. Yesterday, I sent a gift pack of self-test boxes, 10 pieces.

｜Day 11 Thursday, April 14

Old K's nucleic acid test came out, but it hasn't turned negative yet, so I'm a little anxious.

Today we are doing nucleic acid testing again, 10 people/tube.

Old K is very interested and has fully adapted to the shelter life. He told me: There are many incidents in Oolong. Like the old Wang next door, who was caught with a positive result because of a late nucleic acid report, but it turned out to be negative, not an isolated case. . Yesterday, a delivery man refused to leave after delivering the food. He wanted to take the initiative to enter the cabin, saying that there was no way to survive outside, but he was blasted away by volunteers. If you don't go through the formal system, you can get in if you want to come in by yourself?

Old K said: Ha, I'm very energetic. Several of them have recovered and they can't go away. They tell people everywhere, "There is food and drink here, what are you going to do when you go out?"

｜Twelfth day Friday, April 15

Today, old K has done nucleic acid again, waiting for the result.

The school at the entrance of the community is under construction overnight, and it is necessary to build a shelter. Early in the morning, the residents of the community were arguing. Alas, it's really frustrating, boring.

｜Thirteenth day Saturday, April 16

Received good news from Lao K early in the morning: the nucleic acid report is overcast.

The report of Pharaoh, who was caught by mistake next door, also came out - finally Yang.

I was a little excited when I thought that Lao K was going to go home. In the evening, I made cheese cakes, and made glutinous rice cakes with jujube puree and pine nuts with glutinous rice flour, and distributed them to the neighbors.

｜Day 14 Sunday, April 17

In the morning, Lao K sent another good news: still overcast. Victory is in sight.

However, Old K also said that there were other patients in the cabin, and the nucleic acid was negative twice, but the nucleic acid turned positive again for the third time.

Tomorrow is my birthday, and it is my biggest birthday wish for Mr. K and Nong to go home safely and healthy.
