Time Travel: A Fisherwoman Goes to the Sea to Raise a Baby
Chapter 20 Typhoon Passing Through
In the small fishing village, you can often see busy fishermen, carrying fishing nets on their shoulders, fish baskets in their hands, with simple and satisfied smiles on their faces.
Several fishing boats were parked in the harbor, swaying with the waves.
Xu Yiyi distributed the stewed chicken soup to several children. The two chicken legs were for Sanchuan and Sihai, and the chicken wings were for her and Er'er.
The picky eater Sihai held the small wooden bowl and slurped the chicken soup.
"This time you get to eat the chicken legs, and next time it's my turn with Big Sister! We take turns."
Er'er doesn't care much about this, to her it's all meat.
But the eldest sister said that the younger brothers should not be allowed to take it for granted, so she brought it up.
Sanchuan nodded obediently, and Sihai directly put the chicken leg into the eldest sister's bowl.
"Give it to Big Sister. She's worked hard and was even scared today..."
Xu Yiyi was a little surprised. After she came back, she showed a look of fear for only a moment, which was seen by Sihai.
"Thank you Sihai, I can't eat that much...but what Sihai gave me is still edible..."
The sensitive child subconsciously began to feel aggrieved after hearing his sister's refusal.
Xu Yiyi changed the subject, "Who will help my eldest sister deliver soup to my uncle?"
Sanchuan and Sihai raised their hands at the same time, and the two children held the basin together and walked sideways like little crabs.
"Sister, did something happen to you today?"
Er'er was a little worried, and her lips turned pale. People in the village often heard that a man in a family had passed away, and she, as an outsider, felt sad to hear it.
It is even more unacceptable for my sister to do this.
"It's okay! It's nothing. I just fell into the sea accidentally. You know how amazing my elder sister is. She came up immediately and even saved two people."
Xu Yiyi spoke in a relaxed tone, and Er'er finally felt relieved.
After the meal, Xu Yiyi stripped the clothes of the sleepy child and threw them into the basin.
The sun is strong at the seaside, so Xu Yiyi would fetch a few basins of water and put them in the yard to dry every day when she went out.
When I took a shower in the evening, the water was warm, just right for washing.
Xu Yiyi was used to thinking about some things after lying down at night. When she didn't know, the night was as dark as ink, and the sky was covered with dark clouds, blocking the originally sparse stars and the bright moonlight, and the sky and the earth became chaotic in an instant.
Before going to bed, he got up to feed Wu Yuan.
The baby, who is more than two months old, is like a newly blossomed bud, full of vitality and innocent beauty.
She has a petite body, and her skin is as delicate as silk with a faint pink hue, as if water would overflow with the slightest touch.
The facial features have gradually become clearer, and the big eyes are round, like two shining black gems, curiously exploring the world around them.
He grunts while feeding, and when he is happy, his little feet kick from time to time.
In an instant, the sea breeze began to become extremely violent, carrying the salty and uneasy breath of the sea water, whistling throughout the entire fishing village, making bursts of shrill whimpers.
Xu Yiyi realized what had happened, ran out and carried the sheep in the yard into the main room.
Sihai was holding Wuyuan in his arms on the bed, while Er'er and Sanchuan moved all the things in the yard into the house.
The horror of a typhoon lies not only in its powerful destructive power, but more in the helplessness and despair it brings to people.
At this time, the lights in the village were sparse, and every household had their doors closed. The houses by the sea were all built with stones, so they had no problem resisting the typhoon.
I was afraid that the thatch on the roof would be blown away, as this typhoon came without any warning.
The villagers had no time to take protective measures and could only pray that the typhoon would pass as soon as possible.
The waves were blown up by the strong wind, forming a wall of water several feet high, which slammed against the shore fiercely, making a deafening roar.
Xu Yiyi was a little worried about Uncle Li's family. Their house was close to the sea, and those solid reefs seemed shaky under the impact of such fierce waves, as if they would collapse at any time.
Can Uncle Li’s house withstand the wind and waves?
"Hurry back to the house and stay here. Don't come out."
The storm did not pass as everyone expected.
It was still raining heavily until early the next morning.
The first people Xu Pinghai and Li Shunan thought of were Xu Yiyi and other children whose parents were away.
Xu Yiyi, wearing a straw raincoat, opened the door and looked out. The river was rising rapidly and the water was becoming turbid.
It will be even more dangerous for ships going out to sea.
Even Xu Pinghai felt that it was thanks to Xu Yiyi's joining that he changed his mind temporarily and only went out to sea for one day.
Otherwise, according to the habit of previous years, it would still be floating on the sea at this time.
If we encounter such a terrible typhoon, a single wave could kill everyone on the ship.
"If you don't have anything to do today, don't go out. We don't know when this typhoon will pass. Stay home and look after your younger siblings..."
The two of them only exchanged a few words, and then left in a hurry after seeing that there was no problem with Xu Yi's family's house.
Xu Yinli spent more than seventy taels of silver to build it. Considering that he was not at home, he had to ensure the safety of his wife and children, so the house was built to be weatherproof.
"Big sister, Wu Yuan pooped..."
Sihai pouted and looked at the smiling child lying on his little bed. The room smelled bad.
Er'er was awakened by the shouting. As the typhoon passed, the trees trembled in the strong wind, and the branches and leaves swayed wildly, making a harsh rustling sound, as if they would break at any time.
The waves were also hitting the rocks, splashing countless white foams, making a huge noise.
I didn't dare to sleep at all while lying in bed, for fear that something unexpected might happen in the middle of the night and my elder sister wouldn't be able to take care of it alone.
I closed my eyes only when I couldn't resist the sleepiness anymore.
The little girl went to her elder sister's room to change her younger brother's diaper skillfully, and Sanchuan carried the milk bucket to express milk for her younger brother.
The ewe was very irritable, pacing around the house constantly, kicking her hooves and making noises.
"Sanchuan asked the eldest sister to come, you go wash your face!"
The ewe has been here for about ten days and has been well fed by Er'er. She is a little fatter than when she first came.
If this guy gets kicked, his flesh will definitely turn blue.
It was pitch black everywhere during the typhoon. Xu Yi lit an oil lamp and steamed egg cakes and cooked fish porridge for the children, who had a simple meal.
Seeing that the rain was getting heavier, Xu Yiyi started making clothes again.
By evening, the rain began to subside.
Xu Yiyi quickly put on his straw raincoat and went out to see that the waves had become smaller.
There were many fish and shrimps washed up by the water on both sides of the river, but unfortunately they were all dead.
Xu Yiyi suddenly thought of something, went back to the house, picked up the fish basket and ran out.
If so many fish and shrimps can be photographed in the river, there must be even more at the seaside.
The rain was still falling, and when Xu Yiyi arrived at the beach, there was no one there.
The sea water receded, revealing a wide and moist sandy area, scattered with all kinds of seafood, like a sudden seafood feast.
