A female supporting character who travels through time and has a spatial ability becomes the darling
Chapter 37 It really rained.
Although Chen Hua felt a little awkward last time, he still had a good relationship with Chen Ming. When he saw Chen Ming's miserable state and the crumpled paper in his nostrils, he immediately laughed out loud. Then he stepped forward and peeled chestnuts for Chen Ming under his resentful gaze.
Chen Ming was pleased, and the two of them would occasionally whisper to each other, chatting about some gossip.
However, Chen Ming is indeed the person in their small team with the widest, most comprehensive, and most timely sources of information.
By evening, most of the belongings had been packed up. The brigade leader arranged for the militia and team members to stand guard at the threshing ground, while the remaining team members went home. Under the fiery red sunset, smoke rose from every household, and laughter filled the air.
……
The grain was dried for two long middays, and with someone constantly watching over it, turning it over, and ventilating it frequently, it was almost dry by the evening of the second day. It wouldn't get moldy when it was gathered and bagged. So, Captain Xie started organizing people to pack it up and put it into storage.
In fact, at this point, many people had already let their guard down, or rather, looking at the cloudless sky, they didn't think that Yun Shu's weather forecast that there would likely be a rainstorm tomorrow was accurate. After working themselves to the bone for the past ten days, almost everyone wanted to take a break and get some sleep.
However, Captain Xie always respected educated people. He had a good impression of Yun Shu and the other educated youths, partly because he had experienced the power of culture from his own two sons who went to the city to work and one who joined the army.
Therefore, to avoid a complete failure, Captain Xie took a very firm stance. Several men, grumbling and making sarcastic remarks, even accusing Yun Shu of being just a little girl and saying she didn't know anything, were slapped twice by Captain Xie with his pipe.
Ultimately, Captain Xie's authority was very strong. The three shifts worked through the night to arrange for people to collect and store all the grain before announcing the end of the autumn harvest. The team members who had worked could then go home to their wives, children, and warm beds.
After working late into the night, the moonlight was still very bright, and the stars in the night sky faintly formed a long river.
The members of the Fengsheng Brigade went home in twos and threes, and then, taking advantage of the fact that the brigade leader was no longer watching them, some of them couldn't help but grumble.
It was none other than the man of Zhang Cuihua and Li Xiaohua, the two old women who rode in the oxcart with Yun Shu and her friends when they first went to the county town to purchase supplies.
It's said that two kinds of people can't sleep in the same bed, and these two are the kind who love to cheat, be lazy, and take advantage of others. Therefore, they're birds of a feather; Zhang Cuihua and Li Xiaohua get along well, and these two are always up to no good, inseparable.
These two were the ones who complained the most when the grain was being collected. They were full of resentment and kept saying that the educated youth were not on their side. They almost got kicked by the brigade leader.
Now that they had finished harvesting the grain after working through the night, Zhang Cuihua's husband looked at the moon in the sky, spat out a mouthful of phlegm in annoyance, and couldn't help but complain rudely.
"It's still raining heavily? The sky doesn't look like it's going to rain heavily at all!"
"That clueless little girl, they say long hair means short wits, yet the brigade leader still believes her. How come she can make us work ourselves to the bone half the night with just a few words from her lips!"
"That's right, I heard it from my wife. That Xie educated youth doesn't know how to manage a household. Who knows what kind of life she lived as a rich landlord's daughter before she came to our Fengsheng Brigade!"
"Just because someone becomes a broadcaster, they start giving random orders. Isn't that just causing chaos?"
Li Xiaohua's husband was also unhappy. He had been wanting to go home and get a good night's sleep for a long time. He was exhausted after these ten days and his back was so sore he could barely straighten up!
"Hmph, if it doesn't rain tomorrow, I'm going to have a serious talk with the captain!"
Zhang Cuihua's husband became increasingly unhappy, as if a raging fire was burning within him. He was determined to teach Yun Shu, this young educated youth who dared to give his wife a hard time and make them work so hard, a lesson in power!
The two returned home together, and the wife boiled water to wash her feet and then slapped the child a couple of times before they felt a little better. They went to bed with stiff, expressionless faces.
The exhaustion of ten days surged in, and almost everyone in the Fengsheng Brigade slept soundly until three or four in the morning, when it was still dark, when a thick bolt of lightning tore through the night and streaked across the sky.
"Boom... Crack!"
"Wang Wang Wang!!"
The deafening thunder not only disturbed all the sleeping dogs, but also startled all the sleeping people awake.
The torrential rain outside instantly formed small streams on the ground, which slowly converged and flowed downhill.
In the flash of lightning, everyone could see clearly outside without needing to turn on any lamps. It was as if the heavens were angry; all the leaves on the trees outside the yards had fallen off, and a bolt of lightning even struck a ten-meter-tall tree, splitting its trunk in two, and causing its massive canopy to crash to the ground.
The sound of children crying in fright echoed in every house, but not all adults were in the mood to coax or comfort them. Most people, like Zhang Cuihua's family, who did not believe in Yun Shu, fell silent at this moment.
Captain Xie sat by the window watching the heavy rain for two or three minutes, then suddenly smiled happily, turned around and lay back down in bed.
Zhang Cuihua and Li Xiaohua's families looked out at the heavy rain and remembered the grain in the warehouse; they suddenly fell silent.
"This is really weird, how come... it's actually raining?" Zhang Cuihua's husband was very confused. Of course, there were many people like him, after all, in the past, not many people took the weather forecast of Fengsheng Brigade seriously.
Many people didn't sleep well that night, but Yun Shu slept soundly.
The rain didn't stop the next day; in fact, it seemed to be getting heavier, so the entire Fengsheng Brigade was very quiet.
Since their grain has already been stored away and is safe, it doesn't matter how much rain falls.
……
It was raining, so after calling out twice through the window, Yun Shu's five-person team each lit a coal stove inside and cooked something for themselves.
The three young men struggled to start a fire and cook for themselves, often making porridge with too much water or burning the vegetables. While choking on the smoke and covered in soot, they silently thanked Chef Lin countless times.
After all, what they make can only be described as cooked; whether it tastes good or not... they themselves know.
Meanwhile, Yun Shu and Lin Jing Shu huddled in their small room, tacitly boiling some water on a coal stove to pretend they were cooking. In reality, they had each prepared their own special meals using their special abilities, such as sweet and sour pork ribs and sweet and sour pork, and they were very happy eating!
Anyway, the heavy rain will block the smell, so why not eat it now!
After lunch, I took a good nap while listening to the rain. By the afternoon, the rain had lessened considerably, falling only sporadically, and the sun slowly pierced through the clouds. Two hours later, around four o'clock in the afternoon, the heavy rain finally stopped.
