The weather in Taoyuan Village these two days was a bit weird, the sky was cloudy and the sun didn't come out, but it was very stuffy, as stuffy as if the sky was covered with a quilt, and even the wind could hardly be felt.

And Cheng Wanqiu didn't see Lin Chu for almost two days.

That night after Lin Chu got into the van to go to work, he began to avoid Cheng Wanqiu, just like Cheng Wanqiu avoided seeing him before, as long as you don't go to his house to look for him during the day, you can't see him outside , he didn't even go to the commissary.

Cheng Wanqiu didn't want to force him. He knew that Lin Chu might be in a mess right now, or he might feel ashamed and didn't want to face him. If he ignored Lin Chu's wishes and insisted on looking for him at this time, the result would be even worse.

He didn't want to force Lin Chu to be unable to live in peace at home.

Cheng Wanqiu didn't see the people he wanted to see outside, and he also lost interest in going out. Except for the necessary grocery shopping, he stayed at home like a grandma most of the time.

After Cheng Wanqiu was busy with his own affairs every day, he spent a lot of spare time thinking about Lin Chu.

But rather than thinking about it, it would be more appropriate to say thinking about Lin Chu. He always misses him when he can't see him. This kind of thinking is a simple literal meaning, just thinking about him as a person.

Thinking about it, time passed, Cheng Wanqiu indulged herself in this state for two days, until the third day, the landline at home rang, bringing a very bad news.

His aunt Cheng Qinqin accidentally fell down the stairs. Grandma Cheng turned pale with panic when she heard the news. After repeatedly confirming that Qinqin was fine and her life was not in danger, she felt relieved, and then began to pack her things and prepare Go see Cheng Qinqin.

Naturally, Cheng Wanqiu also started to pack some simple luggage. It was impossible for him not to go to see his aunt was injured, and it was impossible for grandma to go to see it alone.

On the afternoon of the day they received the call, Cheng Wanqiu and grandma took a tricycle to the passenger station in the town with the help of Uncle Wang, and then arrived at the hospital where Cheng Qinqin was at before dark.

Almost as soon as they arrived at the hospital, it suddenly started to rain heavily outside. People on the road who couldn't take shelter from the rain screamed and then scattered around looking for shelter from the rain.

Cheng Wanqiu got up and closed the window of the ward, as well as the deafening rain outside. Behind him, Grandma Cheng looked at Cheng Qinqin lying on the hospital bed with tears in her eyes, and took her hand to caress her.

Cheng Qinqin has three children. The eldest son is already in college, the second daughter has just entered high school, and the youngest daughter is in elementary school.

The older of the three children is far away, the younger is too young, and the second who can take care of the first and second has to go to school, and he can't come back from school, and Uncle Cheng has to open a shop to start a business. The only ones who can take care of Cheng Qinqin are Cheng Wanqiu and Grandma Cheng.

Cheng Qinqin didn't stand still when she was halfway down the stairs and rolled down several floors until she rolled to the ground. She was lying on the ground and couldn't move. 120 pulled her away.

Cheng Wanqiu asked the doctor, Cheng Qinqin wasn't particularly serious and didn't hurt his head, but because there were slight fractures and fractures in some places, he still needed to recuperate for a few months, at least in a short period of time, Cheng Wanqiu should be Stayed in the hospital for care.

In the evening, Cheng Wanqiu saw Uncle Cheng. He was an honest and kind-looking middle-aged man. He was holding a thermos bucket in one hand and a little girl with braids in the other.

The little girl looks very similar to Aunt Cheng, with a melon-shaped face and big eyes, she is a very well-behaved child.

Grandma Cheng hugged her as soon as she saw her, calling Xin Xin several times, and Cheng Wanqiu even asked which word it was.

Xinxin is very shy and quiet, eating the biscuits Cheng Wanqiu gave her in the ward without making a fuss, watching the adults in the ward talking with big eyes.

After Cheng Qinqin finished eating the food Uncle Cheng brought from home, Uncle Cheng took Grandma Cheng and Cheng Wanqiu out for dinner.

Because it was raining too hard outside, they didn't go too far. Instead, they found a nearby restaurant and ordered a table of food. After eating, they went out and called a taxi to return to Cheng Qinqin's house.

Cheng Qinqin's house is on a street with a strong atmosphere of life. There is a three-story building adjacent to the street. Mi is the elementary school, where Xinxin goes to school.

Uncle Cheng took good care of Grandma Cheng, serving her tea and water. Xin Xin looked much happier after returning home from the hospital, and even found her Barbie doll for Cheng Wanqiu to play with her.

Cheng Wanqiu is actually not very good at playing with such a young child, but he has a lot of patience. Xinxin likes him after being with him for a while, and even has to sit next to him when eating.

The rain outside has been falling, almost without stopping, sometimes it is as big as a sky leak, sometimes it suddenly becomes smaller, but it always keeps falling.

The next day, there was water that could flood a person's calf on the street. Cheng Wanqiu and Uncle Cheng took some protective measures, moving everything under the shelves to a higher place.

In this case, it is very difficult for them to go to the hospital to take care of Cheng Qinqin.

After confirming that there was really no way to go to the hospital, Cheng Wanqiu immediately called Cheng Qinqin and asked for an escort, one hundred and one day.

The downpour was still falling, mixed with lightning and thunder.

Standing by the window on the second floor, Cheng Wanqiu looked out and saw the torrential rain. It is not a good thing for this level of heavy rain to fall in certain areas, such as Taoyuan Village. As for back pouring, I was also worried about how Lin Chu would go to work in the town under such heavy rain?

The torrential rain lasted for three days and three nights. It was not until the fourth day that the rain began to lighten. The accumulated water on the road was also drained by the sewer within a few hours after the heavy rain stopped.

Cheng Wanqiu bought a lot of fruit after lunch and went to the hospital alone. Grandma Cheng stayed at home with Xinxin, but Uncle Cheng didn't go with her because she wanted to visit the store.

Cheng Wanqiu didn't know the way, so he just took a taxi there.

After getting off the car, the hospital was just around the corner. Cheng Wanqiu was carrying fruits and meals and walked towards the hospital gate. When he passed by a canteen, he heard the sound of the TV coming from inside. It was news.

Cheng Wanqiu heard a familiar place name, which forced him to stop, even back a few steps and walk back to the door of the canteen, watching the TV set on the top with the boss sitting behind the cashier.

Cheng Wanqiu saw the aerial view of Taoyuan Village on the small, square old TV screen, but the Taoyuan Village on the TV was completely different from what he remembered.

Under the cloudy sky, the far right side of Taoyuan Village has been submerged in countless mud and stones, and countless search and rescue personnel with complete equipment stepped on the mud and the ruins of buildings submerged in the mud.

Cheng Wanqiu stared intently at the screen on the TV. A slope at the back of the mountain had collapsed, and the fallen part was covered like a quilt on the rightmost side of Taoyuan Village. There was Lin Chu's house there, but Cheng Wanqiu didn't watch it. When he arrived at the familiar concrete house, he saw only a hill of mud and rocks, with many branches of peach trees sandwiched between them.

[…According to the frontline reporter of this station, the torrential rain for several days caused a landslide in the back mountain of Taoyuan Village. A large amount of mud and rocks rolled down the hillside, causing serious disasters. The search and rescue personnel on the scene are conducting search and rescue operations, but no victims have been found yet... …]

Cheng Wanqiu waited until the news was over before recovering, and then he found himself covered in cold sweat, his heart seemed to be frozen, and the cold wind was blowing, he took out the phone with trembling fingers, his hands were shaking so much that he could hardly operate it .

It took a long time to dial Wang Jinyuan's phone. When the phone was connected, countless pictures flashed through Cheng Wanqiu's mind, but he didn't see anything clearly. His mind was blank now, and the huge panic made him lose his thinking. Ability.

If there was a mirror in front of him at this time, he might not even be able to recognize who the person in the mirror was, and why would he have such a completely blank expression, as if he had lost everything suddenly.

The phone was picked up when it was about to hang up automatically. Wang Jinyuan's voice was very loud, and it could be heard that he was fine.

"Hello? Brother Wanqiu? Something serious happened!"

Cheng Wanqiu frowned and swallowed, and said with difficulty, "Xiaoyuan... Where's Lin Chu?"

Wang Jinyuan, who was about to eloquently, was stunned when he heard this, "Lin Chu? Oh brother, look for him. He is in the ancestral hall. His house was washed away by the landslide. He has nowhere to go so he lays a bed in the ancestral hall. Brother, do you want to say a few words to him? He is right behind me."

Hearing this, Cheng Wanqiu felt his blood start to flow again. After the violent emotional ups and downs were calmed down, Cheng Wanqiu lost all strength almost instantly. His legs were so weak that he could hardly keep him standing. He could only Find a place to sit down.

Wang Jinyuan was puzzled by Cheng Wanqiu's silence for a while, "Brother? Are you still listening?"

"...Listening, you give him the phone."

Obediently, Wang Jinyuan turned around with his mobile phone, and immediately found Lin Chu who was sitting in a corner smoking a cigarette among the people coming and going behind him.

He walked towards Lin Chu and handed him the phone that was still on the phone, "Lin Chu, Brother Wanqiu is looking for you."

Lin Chu bit his cigarette and looked at Wang Jinyuan inexplicably, but still took the phone, "Hello?"

Hearing a familiar voice, Cheng Wanqiu's heart that almost jumped out of his chest just landed steadily, and he held his forehead in frustration, "Lin Chu... I was almost scared to death by you."

Lin Chu took down the cigarette in his mouth, and exhaled a puff of smoke ring, "What are you talking about that has no beginning and no end? Why did I scare you? Don't make rumors about me."

Cheng Wanqiu was silent for a moment, he could still feel his heart beating desperately in his chest, it was beating so violently that it made his ears feel uncomfortable.

Cheng Wanqiu was silent, Lin Chu listened to his breathing, and said after a while: "...don't worry, we ran out immediately when we heard something wrong with the sound. Some people were injured, but no one died. It's a blessing among misfortunes."

Cheng Wanqiu ended her silence with a deep sigh, "Lin Chu, I found that I was in a deep hole, deeper than I thought."

After hearing this, Lin Chu's finger holding the cigarette trembled slightly, but he remained silent and did not speak. He just subconsciously brought the phone closer to his ear, wanting to hear every word Cheng Wanqiu said more clearly.

"I wish I could give my life to you."

Lin Chu may be embarrassed, or he may be allergic to romantic words, because he clicked his tongue after listening, with disgust on his mouth but no disgust on his face.

"Cheng Wanqiu, why are you so disgusting?"

"Cheng Wanqiu was frightened to death for a minute or two just now, thinking that the peach essence was gone."

"What the hell, who do you call Peach Essence?!"

Cheng Wanqiu pressed his sore and sore brows with his left hand, and smiled helplessly, "I'll probably be able to go back tonight, please feel wronged again."

"It's none of my business whether love comes back or not?"

"Don't run around, don't go to dangerous places, if I don't see you in the ancestral hall when I go back, I will die with you."

"……Neuropathy."

Cheng Wanqiu didn't seem to expect that he would say such childish words, so he chuckled lightly and said, "Okay, see you tonight."

"Who wants to see you tonight!" After Lin Chu finished speaking, he hung up the phone and returned the phone to Wang Jinyuan.

Wang Jinyuan looked at him inexplicably while holding the phone, "What did my brother tell you?"

Lin Chu sneered at Wang Jinyuan's "my brother" in his heart, and gave him a cool look, "Your brother will die with me."

Wang Jinyuan: "...?"
