Since the zombies appeared, we have been very careful in everything we do.

Even the dogs at home have been driven to the backyard barn to keep them from making noise.

The house in my hometown was newly built, so it was much bigger than before and had several more rooms.

The living room facing the front yard is the sitting room, also known as the living room.

Next to the living room is the dining room, and then the kitchen. I usually call this kitchen the west kitchen, and beyond the west kitchen is the east kitchen.

In the east kitchen, there is a big stove and a stove specialized for burning kang.

Now all changed to underfloor heating, but the original fire wall and the kang have not been thrown away, so you can burn whichever you want.

Next to the east kitchen are two rooms, which house the kang, where people usually live.

In addition, there are two side rooms, one for storing grains and the other for storing various mechanical miscellaneous items, as well as some old items that we can't bear to throw away.

In front of the living room facing the sun is the sunroom, but the difference is that the roof is not made of glass but reinforced concrete. It was primarily built for winter warmth, as it is difficult for the elderly to take care of all-glass rooms.

Behind the house, there is also a metal frame covered with thin film, used for insulation in winter.

Next to the miscellaneous room, there is a small room usually used for washing and a toilet.

This is the front yard.

The backyard is relatively large, with doors in front and back of the kitchen mainly for fetching firewood from the backyard.

In addition to growing vegetables in our backyard, we also have a firewood room and a livestock room.

Oh, and the cellar is also in the backyard. The rest is the vegetable garden.

Next to the front yard is the small building built by my father and them, and the path connecting the front and back yards is the passage between the bungalow and the small building.

Looking at the structure, it seems quite simple, but with such a large space, it's more than enough for people to live in.

Now I am in the sunroom with a sunshade net, peeling walnut husks.

Wearing gloves, holding a small knife, I reprocess the walnuts that have not been peeled properly.

Grandpa and fourth brother are working in the cellar. For the sake of the elderly's safety, our cellar is not just a simple hole but a sloping structure, resembling a small house when viewed from above, and going inside is the cellar.

Potatoes, sweet potatoes, and the like need to be stored in the cellar for a long time.

It has been more than half a month since the zombies entered the village, and now it is already mid-September.

The temperature is still very high, with no sign of cooling down since autumn.

A few days ago, it rained, but it didn't have much impact on the temperature.

A few days ago, grapes were ripe, so as not to waste them, I tried to dry some raisins. Today the raisins are ready, it only took a few days, showing how high the temperature is.

Because of the threat of zombies outside, we don't even watch TV normally.

Because our area is so large, who knows if a zombie might come from somewhere and cause trouble.

Facing the zombies, as long as we don't go out, everything is fine, but it's not the same for others.

Seeing that soybeans and corn are ready for harvest, and with zombies outside, no one dares to go out easily.

But the crops are ripe, they can't be left to rot in the ground.

Another two days passed.

Just when everyone was extremely anxious, a team of green-armored soldiers arrived.

It's the Liberation Army, the military has arrived.

I could see the conspicuous team from the second floor, not only with armored vehicles, but this team was mostly driving agricultural harvesters.

They came to help with the autumn harvest.

My family and I watched the team enter the fields to start working, and we saw that people from the village also came out to help.

Due to the noise of the farm machinery, many zombies were also attracted, but they were stopped by the alert soldiers before they got too close.

Whoever it is, they cannot delay the progress of the autumn harvest.

With the help of the military, the work that would not have been completed in a week was finished in just three days.

Usually, we sell the harvested grain directly, but this time, what should we do?

When the grandpa who rented out the land came to deliver the grain, fourth brother asked this question.

"For this, you keep some for yourself, and the rest is sold to the country. After all, it's not safe now, we can't help much, we still have some food left, who cares who we sell it to."

The old man left with a smile, leaving behind a floor full of corn and three large piles of corn stalks in the backyard.

Now everything is mechanized harvesting, and corn and stalks are kept separate.

The team left, they have to go to help with the harvesting in other places.

They also took away dozens of zombie bodies, which just solved the problem here.

Without the threat of zombies, everyone's spirits were lifted.

The road into the village was blocked again, and some people went to pick up the leftover corn in the fields.

The rest went to the mountains to chop firewood. Take advantage of the lack of zombie threats now, firewood must be collected in time.

Otherwise, when winter comes, life will be difficult.

Grandpa also took fourth brother to pick firewood, although our family doesn't lack firewood, but who knows what will happen in the future.

I didn't go to the mountain because I have more important things to do.

I have to work overtime with grandma to dry the vegetables.

These days, the vegetables are growing fastest, so we have to hurry up.

Just at the time when we were rushing to finish everything, the weather changed.

From the original 40-degree weather, it turned into 0 degrees in just a few days. On the first day of October, snowflakes began to fall from the sky.

This snow was not like the light snow at the beginning of winter, but it lasted for five days. After five days, the snow stopped.

The outdoor temperature also dropped to minus 20 degrees, and within 10 days, the temperature difference was 60 degrees. This weather is really too strange.

From the first day the temperature dropped, we started to hurry up and harvest the vegetables, even neglecting to pick up firewood.

Finally, before the snowfall, we finished harvesting the vegetables from our garden.

Following grandpa, we pulled up the transparent plastic film on the iron frame in the backyard. After pulling up the film, the temperature inside rose by several degrees.

The chickens and ducks were put in cages, and the sheep and geese were also put in the house.

Just as we were busy packing up, it started snowing, winter had arrived.

Since the snowfall, we have not returned to live in the small building.

We have fire kang, why go back to burn another stove?
