Since the home is basically unlivable and resembles a small river, all the valuable electronics have been moved onto the bed, while people go outside to find a place to sleep or stay over at workplaces.
Guo Guo's family lives in a lower and marginal section of the slum. Although it's quite close to the central lake and the rooms are relatively comfortable, they weren't spared from flooding.
The difference is, Guo Guo's grandfather isn't fond of outings, spending most of his time resting in bed, while the family has stockpiled enough food to last the grandparent and grandchild a couple of days. So unlike others, they would stay and wait for the water to recede.
Guo Guo, on the other hand, has a tough time. Whether the wind blows or it rains, she has to go to the store to manage it. Her pay for working without any lunchtime throughout the year is substantial.
