The return of natural disasters before the end of the world

Due to the continuous drought of spring plowing this year, nearly [-] mu of farmland in the town was affected.In addition to the hot weather, the price of water keeps rising, so the people in the town who rely on contracted farming to make a living began to dig wells to pump water for irrigation.Some people saw that this method was useful, so they followed suit.That's why the water level dropped even faster, and that's when a large area of ​​the town subsided.As a result, several nearby villages felt the tremors, and even Lijia Village, which is the closest to the town, had several old houses collapsed.

The village chief called the head of the village to a meeting, talking about this matter, and told everyone not to do things like killing chickens to get eggs.Because the village was not affected much, the meeting ended quickly.

Lei Li asked Lei Lang to resign before, but Lei Lang always wanted to wait until all the orders in his hand were completed before leaving.After finally dragging it to July, I felt that the hardest part was over, and the weather was about to cool down, so I didn't want to leave.After all, Lei Lang is not a major in agriculture, so it would be difficult for him to return to his hometown to farm.

Yao Ziqing knew that it would start to rain in mid-August, and the rain continued intermittently until October, when the temperature began to drop sharply, and it began to snow around November.Although I understand the second brother's thoughts, after all, I was so hesitant back then.But in the end, I persuaded the third brother together with the eldest brother and asked him to quit his job and go home.Now that the corn is harvesting, I can still help.

Lei Lang helped Lei Li to pile the harvested corn onto the tricycle. Corn stalks were also a good thing. Those who had livestock at home used them as fodder.Generally, corn can be harvested from May to October, but this year it is too hot, and it can be harvested in July. It happens to be tender corn, and if it is not harvested, it will grow old.

The sun was too harsh during the day, so not many people went to the field. Lei Lang and Lei Li went to the field to collect corn after five o'clock. They were wearing coir raincoats. Although it was hot, it was better than sunburn.

Lei Lang pulled up his coir raincoat and fanned the wind with a corn leaf, "It's really not a job, it's more tiring than me running orders outside, I said, big brother, you take me back home to farm, and co-authors are four children who will cheat me together What about?!"

He worked hard outside for a month, and at least he could get a salary of four to five thousand. How much could a cart of corn be worth.It's just too bad.Lei Li piled up today's harvest on the tricycle and tied it up with a thick rope, "Okay, it's getting dark soon, let's go home, we'll continue tomorrow"

Lei Lang wailed and lay down in the corn, "You kill me!"

Lei Li didn't care about him, he stepped on the car home with a cart full of corn and a younger brother who was about to die of exhaustion.Before I got to the house, I saw a family of three people who were well dressed but looked quite embarrassed because they were sweating all over because of the heat.Lei Li slowed down a bit and looked back, taking a few glances before he recognized the person who came back.

Lei Taosheng took his wife Lu Ying and their son Lu Xueyi back to the village after trekking for a day.Although the village was basically the same as it was ten years ago, the houses were still dilapidated and the countryside was remote, but the town had undergone considerable changes, and it took some effort to find a vehicle.As a result, the family's car did not drive into the village, so they could only get out of the car and walk away.

Lu Ying's family has a factory in the city. He is a married man, and he has stayed in the city all these years and never came back.If his father-in-law hadn't asked him to bring his wife and children back to see if the land at his home could still be planted, he didn't want to come back at all.

Lu Ying knew her father's intentions, so she had no objection to following her husband to this remote village.Just watching my son go through hardships with them made me feel distressed, so I wiped my son's sweat with an umbrella, "It's almost there, dear son, please bear with me."

Lu Xueyi is 17 years old this year. He has just finished the college entrance examination. Before he could have a wonderful summer vacation, he was thrown to the countryside by his grandfather to experience life.Looking at the dilapidated house in front of him, without even an asphalt road, it was almost dark.His game, his level, his equipment, his partner... One can imagine that this kind of countryside that may be lit up with candles at night, where does the Internet come from!Oh my god, his wi-fi!

"Mom, is it too late for me to go back and hug my grandfather's thigh? This is a primitive society, right? Can I really live until I start my university?"

Lei Taosheng patted him on the back of the head, "Your father, I grew up here, do you think you can live to go to college! Hurry up, I haven't been back for so many years, and I don't know if the house is still there"

Lu Xueyi wanted to cry even more when he heard it.

When Lei Li rode his tricycle in front of them, he deliberately slowed down, looking at them he was a little uncertain and asked, "Uncle Tao Sheng?"

Lei Taosheng looked at it for a long time but didn't recognize who the handsome young man in front of him was, "Yes, I am Tao Sheng, are you?"

Lei Li smiled and said, "I am Lei Li, the boss of Yao Nai's family. This is my third brother, Lei Lang. When you were young, you often took him to fish in the river."

Only then did Lei Taosheng suddenly remember that when he looked at the person in front of him again, he could indeed see the outline of his childhood, "Oh, I remembered, I didn't expect the third son to grow up so big, there is still a fourth son in your family, right? It seems to be about the same age as Xiaosan'er, this is my son, Lu Xueyi, my wife, you can just call me Aunt Ying."

Before Lei Lang had time to make a black line, Lu Xueyi on the side burst out laughing, "Father, what's your name, Xiaosan is a curse, okay?"

Lei Taosheng glared at his son, and Lei Lang quickly said, "Uncle Tao Sheng should call me Lei Lang or Xiao Lang. San'er has been called San'er since I grew up. It sounds strange."

Now except for the family members who call him San'er at home, they are basically called by his first name.

Lei Li glanced at Lu Xueyi, then looked at their big and small bags, called his aunt and asked, "Uncle Tao Sheng hasn't come back for many years, is he coming back for vacation now?"

Lei Taosheng smiled and didn't answer directly, but asked about his house, "Isn't this kid just finished his college entrance examination, and brought him back to live in the field, but he hasn't come back for many years, by the way, is my house still there?"

Although he locked all the gates before leaving, the village chief can give the land to villagers who need to build houses in this kind of village with no plan.

It’s okay if this person hasn’t come back, and he probably has something to talk about when he comes back, so it’s not easy for him to say, “It’s still there, but I haven’t lived in it for so many years, I’m afraid it will take some effort to clean it up, my corn is still waiting to be put away.” As for the warehouse, Uncle Tao Sheng, let's go first."

"Okay, go ahead, I have only a few steps to go, see you later"

After Lei Li rode for some distance, Lei Lang said, "Where is their house? Could it be the old house that has been vacant all year round that Lei Yi and his family enclose?"

Probably influenced by them, many people in the village are planning to build new houses recently.Either it's a renovation, or it's an enclosure rebuilding.Lei Yi is the eldest grandson of the second uncle. He is almost thirty this year and has been living in the old house.Seeing that their family built a luxurious small villa, I was also moved.I wanted that old vacant house, pushed it and expanded it, and made it similar to theirs.

A few days ago, I asked the village chief about the vacant house, and in less than a week, Ren Zhengzhu came back. All the plans might come to naught. It is estimated that Lei Taosheng will be hated by Lei Yi and the others.

As soon as he arrived at the back door, Yao Ziqing heard the noise and came out, seeing the cart full of corn, he hurried forward, "Does this corn need to be dried and threshed?"

Nodding vigorously, "Otherwise it's easy to let it rot, put it in the warehouse first, and when the fields are collected together, where can I go to the drying yard?"

Yao Ziqing wanted to put the corn back into the space with itchy hands, but if he had explained this to his family, he wouldn't have to hide it like this.But the second brother said that it's not the right time yet, so let's go to sleep at night, and then he can steal a little more secretly.Just as I was about to help, my stomach growled.Yao Ziqing clutched his stomach and hurried to the bathroom.

Lei Li was a little worried, "Why don't you feed Si'er some medicine, I've had diarrhea for two days now"

Lei Lang snorted and said, "There must be no second brother watching. He secretly hides in the house and eats snacks out of control. It's better not to take medicine. Although he has diarrhea, he is in good spirits. Let's see again. If tomorrow If you're not well, go to the hospital."

Yao Ziqing didn't know that he had already been labeled as an unrestrained snack eater.Two days ago, he started to drink lotion by himself. He saved more than half of the bottle of lotion. He also took a little bit like feeding Xiao Wu for the first time.The tip of the tongue disappears almost immediately in the mouth.Just smelling the sweet scent makes him feel refreshed, and this small half drop feels fuller and more comfortable than the elemental energy he absorbed for a month.After finally restraining myself from drinking another drop, I immediately sat down and meditated.

It's called meditation, but it's just sitting cross-legged to absorb elemental energy.When I was absorbing the most, I felt a severe pain in my stomach, so the diarrhea that lasted for two days started like this.

After Yao Ziqing had diarrhea, he took another shower. When he came out of the bathroom, Xiao Wu was wagging his tail at the door.Seeing him coming out, she quickly got up and scratched his calf.

Xiao Wu is now looking more and more like a sunspot, with dark and bright hair, standing almost above the height of his calf, and when he grows up, he will not be able to hug him whenever he wants.

The person who abused Xiao Wu has not been found yet.Yao Ziqing took Xiao Wu around the village on purpose. He felt that Xiao Wu was very smart, and it was impossible for him to forget all the injuries.But in the village, there is no reaction at all. No matter who you meet, as long as you are by his side, you will be obedient.Even when he put it on the ground, he followed him and never ran around.

Yao Ziqing picked up Xiao Wu and weighed it, "Xiao Wu, you are getting heavier and heavier, you have to start exercising, if you stay in the house with me all day and don't exercise, sooner or later you will become a fat dog. It's meat, the first thought of anyone who sees you in the future is, hey, this dog is fat, how fat is it?"

When Lei Li entered the room, he heard him holding Xiao Wu Sui Sui Sui Sui, "What are you talking about? It can't understand what you are saying. How is your stomach? Does it hurt? Still have diarrhea? There is still medicine at home, why don't you take some?"

Yao Ziqing shook his head, he felt that he was detoxifying, not diarrhea at all, otherwise he would be dehydrated and unable to get up in bed after two days of diarrhea, "It's okay, I'm fine, Xiao Wu is very smart, he can understand you talking to him "

Seeing that Si'er was unwilling to take the medicine and seeing that his face was fine, Lei Li didn't insist anymore.I looked at the little fat ball in Si'er's arms for a long time, "Xiao Wu, go and make dinner"

Xiao Wu "..." This is too embarrassing for a dog!

Yao Ziqing touched Xiao Wu who was underestimated, "It's okay, Xiao Wu is still young, but he will be able to when he grows up, right Xiao Wu?"

Lei Li "..."

Sure enough, Si'er should have let Si'er keep a dog when he was a child. It's terrible how terrible the pet love accumulated over the years exploded together.It's almost like raising a child.

Yao Ziqing increased from half a drop of lotion to one drop, and soon he drank all the lotion he had accumulated.Every day before dawn, he would take Xiao Wu for a morning run in the woods, and then practice boxing.Sometimes he even felt that he was light enough to fly.Many times he wanted to try to see if he could fly over walls, but he just thought about it, it would be stupid if he accidentally fell.

Now the third brother is no longer his opponent, even if the elder brother is not strong, he can overturn the elder brother to the ground many times.Both the eldest brother and the third brother said that now the only ones in the family who can control Si'er are grandma and Lei Xiao.

Yao Ziqing didn't tell the second brother that he drank the lotion. The second brother didn't know what he was busy with, and he only replied to text messages very late every day.He was afraid of disturbing his second brother, so he didn't even dare to make a phone call.Every day, I just hugged Xiaowu and complained that the second brother said that he would be back soon, but he still didn't return after so long!

Du Heng looked at Lei Xiao's firm eyes, and couldn't understand his decision, "I think you still need to think about it carefully. The higher-ups suppressed your application because of your ability. I don't want you to make a wrong decision on the spur of the moment. And Lei Xiao, as mentioned above, if you think you have any difficulties, you can raise them, or you can take a long vacation if you want to have a good rest, why do you have to retire?"

Lei Xiao was indifferent to the persuasion of Du Heng and Cheng Hui, "I've already decided."

Du Heng glanced at Cheng Hui, wanting him to say something.Cheng Hui lit a cigarette, squinted his eyes and took two puffs, "Can't say why?"

Seeing Lei Xiao's paralyzed expression, he finally sighed helplessly, "You always have your own ideas and ideas. Since you have made such a decision, it is probably the result of deliberation. I only hope that you will not regret today's decision in the future."

"Um"

Cheng Hui shook his head and said with a smile, "Since I entered the army as a soldier, I never thought about retiring before the time limit expired. After leaving the army, maybe I don't even know how to live. What are my plans for the future?"

Lei Xiao answered "Farming" in a serious manner

Cheng Hui "..."

Du Heng "..."

Cheng Hui was choked by the smoke and coughed for a long time, his voice was a little hoarse, "Say it again, the wind was too strong and I didn't hear clearly."

Lei Xiao gave him a cold look, remained silent, and looked down at the text messages that he had read countless times and could even memorize. These were all sent by Si'er.Some talked about some things in the family, and some were happy that he left the eldest brother and the third child down, piecemeal, and sometimes sent a sentence without beginning or end, as if he sent whatever came to mind, without any logic.

Cheng Hui wiped his face, "Are you serious?"

Lei Xiao looked up at him, nodded, and acquiesced.

Du Heng looked a little anxious, "I don't understand why, Lei Xiao, you obviously have a bright future, you are only a few years old this year, and you have come to this position, and you just give up everything you have paid for so many years, are you willing?"

Lei Xiao was slightly puzzled, "What is there to be unwilling about?"

Du Heng choked when he asked, what is there to ask about this kind of thing, no one would choose to give up under the circumstances of gaining both fame and fortune.He actually asked back, what could be not reconciled?

"Is it because of your brother?"

Cheng Hui snorted, "You mean his fourth son? Have you seen him? But what does this have to do with his retreat?"

Du Heng didn't know what it was related to, but inexplicably felt that it should have something to do with that Yao Ziqing.Just a subconscious intuition with no reason.

Lei Xiao's expression did not change, but the color of his deep eyes became a little darker.He glanced at Du Heng lightly, "My own business is none of other people's business, that's all, let's have a meal together before leaving."

Seeing Lei Xiao leave without looking back, Du Heng didn't know how he felt.The cold look just now was a slap in the face, making him feel as if he had fallen into an ice cellar.It is not an exaggeration to tell Lei Xiao that he was born and died together in adversity several times, but because of a single sentence, a sentence that is not an offense to his younger brother, his eyes became so cold.

Du Heng lowered his head and smiled wryly. At first he thought there was still some hope, but it turned out to be just wishful thinking.

Cheng Hui patted him on the shoulder, "Why bother, knowing that he is a cold-hearted person, you still plunged into it, come out quickly, at least we will still be brothers in the future"

"But, I'm not reconciled..."

"What can you do if you are not reconciled"

Du Heng laughed at himself, "Yeah, what can I do if I'm not reconciled?"
