Propose a hundred times

Natural disasters are always ruthless, and weak mortals cannot escape or escape. All they can do is kneel down and pray to the ground, hoping that God will do well to leave a way for them to survive.

So, God really gave people a way to live.

In the afternoon, the rain stopped completely, most of the dark clouds were removed, and the sky cleared up.The rise of the flood slowed down significantly. In the evening, the water level stopped at the waist at the deepest point and remained motionless for a long time, and there were signs of low tide.

A group of villagers in Fenghuang Village went from being in a desperate situation to being rescued from a desperate situation, and their mood fluctuated too much in a day. At the moment of overjoyed, they can't forget the helpless state of mind between life and death that has been deeply rooted in the bottom of their hearts.

The flood affected dozens of households in Fenghuang Village, and the yards of each household in the eastern Surabaya area were affected to varying degrees. Few of the village's paddy fields and vegetable fields survived the disaster, and almost no family dared to say that they had no losses.

Fortunately, only the property of each family was damaged, and no casualties were caused.

The village elders who were frightened and gathered at Geng's house today to discuss the escape plan also breathed a sigh of relief.

"Fortunately, fortunately, God bless."

"You don't need me to drag my family and flee for my life with my old bones..."

"I hope it ends like this, don't make a comeback..."

……

In the face of a catastrophe, saving one's life is the most important thing. Everyone has such a concept!

The men still hold the right to speak, lamenting the disaster and discussing the aftermath of the disaster in the hall, while the women are preparing dinner in the kitchen, also exchanging various feelings about the resolution of the predicament.

"Although natural disasters prevented me, at least I was saved at this moment, and it can be regarded as saving my life. Alas! I have been so worried all day long!"

"Who says it's not! How many years have there been no floods, but people are scared to death! Fortunately, fortunately!"

"Although the water hasn't risen anymore, it doesn't look like it's receding so fast. Those with children at home should pay close attention!"

"..."

Sighs came one after another.When women get together, there are always endless topics to talk about, one after another, they change directions.Someone said in surprise: "Speaking of which, strange things have happened in our village since last year, one thing and another!"

"Yeah, I don't know what evil I did! Do you still remember, especially the strange change of sky last year!"

"I'm afraid it's a bad omen coming true, isn't it our village chief at that time..."

"cough--"

Someone coughed heavily and cut off the topic in good time.If you don't stop him, those long tongues may point out where they should go.That can be regarded as out of the question, and it can barely be connected, something that everyone knows well.It's just that I can't say it here, after all, they are in the kitchen of the client's house...

At this moment, Aunt Geng, Erniang Geng, Mrs. Yuan and Geng Qiuyue were all in the kitchen, and the other women were the family members of the representatives who were discussing matters in the hall.It is said that they sent representatives to come to discuss matters, but some of them dragged their families along. They just wanted to hide in the village head's house to seek refuge and feel more secure.

However, gossip women can't keep their mouths open after all, talking about a certain house that is about to pour dirty water on them to give them a sense of security.

As the hostess, Geng Shi was naturally unhappy when he heard such gossip, and his face became slightly restrained.The few people who spoke were kind of winking, so they quickly stopped the topic and changed the subject, and the embarrassment subsided accordingly.In other people's homes, it's not a matter of life and death, and at least you have to take care of other people's face.

Geng Erniang stood next to Aunt Geng, glanced at the women, rolled her eyes and remained silent.Yuan Shi and Geng Qiuyue were busy at the other end of the stove, and they were also displeased with this kind of gossip, they looked at each other and continued with their work.

Here, everyone present has their own thoughts.

"Crap!"

After dinner, Qiuyue dragged Shaoan back to her room, and expressed her worries.When Shaoan heard this, he felt inexplicable and even unbelievable.

"I'm convinced of these people! I'm full every day!" Shao'an is a righteous and kind person, and he despises such ridiculous nonsense on weekdays. Now I heard from Qiuyue that they actually related the flood to Last year's abnormal situation was linked to arrange for her father-in-law to come, so it's hard not to get angry.

Who is not angry? This matter is different from the innocuous jokes in the past. If the villagers are really ignorant and blame people for natural disasters, then her father Qiuyue and the Geng family Even the Yuan family is about to face a terrible situation that is not limited to this flood.

What are they going to do with... stupid hearts?

Obviously, Qiuyue was also angry, her face was blue in the kitchen just now, and her mother's complexion was also bad. When the women gathered together to eat in the kitchen, the atmosphere was extremely reluctant.

"I don't think it's over. The flood hasn't receded for a day, and they are so anxious that they might have to bite my father."

"So what? How can you still take people to sacrifice to the heavens?" Shao'an's tone was not kind. No matter how calm and calm she is, she will never be able to be as calm as still water when disasters come one after another.

"Then we can't let them talk nonsense. They can talk about this in front of my mother and me at my house. When I go back, I have to drag the whole village to make up nonsense. Thanks to my father's hard work, it can't be worth it. They are talking right and wrong! Didn’t some people not want my father to be the village chief on the spot back then?”

This is true, people say it is scary.

"That's impossible, who made them stupid. You said it too, dad is so busy doing his job, who doesn't know, if they can be so heartless, what will they do to dad? At worst, let our father not be the head of this Laoshizi village and let them fend for themselves!"

"You are a broken jar. But it seems that there is really nothing we can do, and we can't keep their mouths shut. No matter what, I feel panicked in my heart. When I think of my father running here and there today to arrange for them to take refuge, the heavy rain Drifting in the deep water all day long, running back and forth without even caring for food, and coming back all wet...they still want to blame my father for such a shitty thing, it's really chilling..."

The two were worried about this matter, and they were very wronged for their father who had worked so hard and was not thankful.Shaoan had something in his heart, he let out a long sigh while speaking,

"Don't be too angry. There is nothing going on outside now, and I don't know what will happen tonight. Keep your spirits up. Our family has more things to worry about tomorrow. I guess the pigs at home... we The family loss should be the biggest..."

When he said this, Shaoan couldn't shake the worst scene from his worst imagination. He didn't dare to think about the tragic scene at all. He put his arms on the table and covered his face with his hands, feeling very depressed.

It was the first time for Qiuyue to see Shaoan look so helpless, her heart sank, she hurriedly stepped forward to hug the person, put her head in her arms, patted her back to comfort her,

"Don't worry too much, you don't know what's going on yet, don't scare yourself."

The person in his arms closed his eyes and took a deep breath. After a long time, he trembled and said weakly: "I'm so scared. If something happens to the big flowers, our family... our family will have a very sad life in the future..." You have to follow me I have suffered.

This person's weak and helpless posture is completely different from her usual proud and rogue, which makes Geng Qiuyue feel even more uncomfortable, and feels ashamed: Thanks to myself, she is still thinking about her natal family, and it is obvious that the Yuan family is the most troubled time , not only did I not put myself in the shoes of the person in my arms, but I always expected her to rely on her, and I liked to ask her for advice and help for anything...

Geng Qiuyue, you are really useless!

At this time, it is useless to say more, Qiuyue suppressed the sore nose, touched the head of the person in her arms, and said in a warm voice: "It's okay, I'm here. When the water subsides, no, when the water level drops, let's go back and see .”

After a while, there was a muffled voice: "Yes."

Two people who are in love with each other, one is worried about the future, the other blames himself for the present, hugging each other with a lot of emotion, comforting and persuading each other, so warm and well matched!

Fortunately, Shaoan's worries did not last long. The flood subsided quietly that night, and the water level dropped to a safe level. When they got up early the next day, everyone found that the flood crisis had been resolved.

Staying at the Geng's house for the night, the members of the Yuan's family still did not sleep well, because it was not their own house, and the flood outside the house did not know how it would progress, and they themselves were in danger.Secondly, there are many disturbing matters in the family, just the fact that the dozens of heads that the family depends on for a living is in crisis, is enough to make the family feel uncomfortable.

Tossing and turning all night, Yuan Shaoan rarely had the opportunity to sleep in the boudoir of his daughter-in-law's family, but he had no other thoughts, only thinking about the pigs at home.It should be said that she is responsible and responsible, but with her like this, Geng Qiuyue, who had been lying with her all night and couldn't sleep well, felt distressed and helpless, and only took a nap at dawn.

The sky was getting brighter, and the sound of rooster crowing started and stopped. The industrious Mrs. Geng took the lead in throwing off the quilt and getting out of bed to put on. When she went out, she saw Geng Qiutang coming out of the hut in the corner of the courtyard with eyes narrowed and foggy. Just as she was about to call him, the boy turned around Dao walked out of the courtyard, opened the courtyard door and looked around, and suddenly woke up without any sleepiness.

"Ah! The water has receded! The water has receded! Mother, come and see!"

The exclamation of the male duck's voice penetrated the entire Geng family's courtyard, and it was clearly transmitted into the house from the gate of the courtyard. Everyone was awakened by the shocking good news, and hurriedly got up, put on their clothes and shoes, and left the hospital for a look.

As a result, there were a few cheers around:

"Saved! Saved!"

"The flood has receded, we will not be submerged anymore!"

"Great, it's finally all right! Thank God for blessing!"

"..."

Now, the whole village is boiling, and the joy and celebration of the rest of the life after the catastrophe is even more lively than the New Year.

Yuan Shao'an hastily tied his belt, his face makeup was too late to put on, the cat stretched his body and pulled off his shoes, almost jumped out of the room, and disappeared after a few strokes, leaving him on the bed suddenly awakened by someone who got up and couldn't keep up with the speed Geng Qiuyue, who couldn't keep up with her thinking, looked confused, and then she became angry, and the bed board slapped and kicked,

"Yuan Shaoan, you know those pigs!"

……

Running wildly all the way, Shaoan didn't care that the water level under his feet was still below his knees, and his shoes got wet when they got wet, so he ignored it.The hem of the trouser legs is wet, so I don't have time to take care of it.The pigs at home are the most urgent thing right now.

Being so impatient, Yuan Shaoan stumbled on the road, slipped and got up and continued to run, and finally returned to his pig farm panting, step by step stepping on the still somewhat deep yellow turbid sewage, and entered the pigsty...
