Chapter 932: Natural Disaster
On the sixth day of the fifth lunar month, not long after the rays of the rising sun sprinkled all over the earth, the air outside had gradually given people an unbearable burning feeling, and Jinxiu, who had just finished eating and walked out of the hall door, couldn't help but pause and look up at the sky.
Liu and Chu Ruyu, who were one step behind her, saw Jinxiu stunned in place, and couldn't help urging: "What's the matter?" Jin'er, your uncle and I are waiting for your pattern to go to town. ”
Jinxiu was stunned for a long time and didn't speak, until Liu and Chu Ruyun spoke again, Jinxiu finally said, "Mother, let's let this matter go first, I'm afraid it's really going to be dry, it's too abnormal this day...."
After speaking, Jinxiu didn't wait for them to answer, raised his feet and ran out, and the speed was fast, only an afterimage, a wind. Liu's outstretched hand was still in mid-air, but he didn't say anything.
Not to mention the two women, it was a hall that was still smiling, and the atmosphere at the moment was also a terrifying heaviness. Wuxian got up and walked to the door to look at the sky, and persuaded Liu, Chu Ruyun and Liu Yufu, who was going to go out, to come back, and then sat down at the table and said solemnly
"Look at the sky outside, Jinxiu said that it is not far from ten, full of calculations, now at most the summer solstice, but now the sky outside is clearly the heat of the lucky genius, in the air, there is no humidity at all, Jinxiu has been paying attention to the weather for a long time, and now she said so, then I think, it must be really dry..."
Except for Donghuang Father and Jun Yi, who had already had the news, Fan Che did it, and when Wu Yan said this, no one in the house questioned it, and even the woman who loved to talk about it Liu only frowned and said nothing.
In the end, Jun Yi, who had been prepared, broke the silence in the room and said, "That's the case, then we should store grain and store water?"
Hearing this, Wuxian hooked his lips and smiled, and said in appreciation, "Yes!" As he spoke, Wuxian glanced at Liu Yufu, "These days, Uncle Yufu, don't go to Xiliang, let's also discuss things, if this is not a drought, it is naturally a great joy, if it is a drought, we have already prepared, and we can have more ways to live...."
However, although Wu Yan said this, the heavy color in his eyes was not missing at all, Jun Yi saw this, pursed his lips, and said, "Brother Bei, dare to ask, is the weather in the imperial capital the same?"
"That's good!" said Wuxian simply, and there was no hesitation at all, "This way, I just thought I was in a hurry, until Jinxiu said her conjecture, and it was suddenly dawned, I think, let's still take action, Jinxiu, she must have discussed with the village chief." ”
"Yes, don't be in a hurry to fight any gold and silver jewelry, except for the silver to build a house, buy grain for the rest...."When Liu Yufu said this, although his face was not very good-looking, he was very sincere.
Wuxian was very satisfied with the performance of these people, and it was also his luck to have such a family, so the young man smiled implicitly
"Uncle still wants to find me an uncle, I still have the money to buy food, you know, my family is just me and my uncle, and I and Jinxiu also cooperated in some business earlier, although it is not worth Jinxiu's net worth, but it is more than enough to buy some food, if you and I see outside, then don't say that Jinxiu will not annoy me, it is me, and I will not forgive myself. ”
The young man said briskly, but what he was doing at the moment was imprinted on everyone's hearts, and seeing that no one said anything against it, Wuxian turned his head to look outside again, and spoke again
"Everyone, let's go our separate ways, Jun Yi, Fan Che, Chu Ke, Ah Jing, you go to the town with me to buy food, and the two uncles will go to Liu's courtyard to help them do more work.
After all, if this matter is publicized and the matter of building a house is unspeakable, it will be stranded, but if Aunt Gui comes back and the disaster is over, we are still building a house, it will not look good. ”
At this moment, the young man did not have the cold as before, and his words and smiles Yan Yan were more reliable than anyone else, that is, Liu Yufu's face was also relieved a lot, and he got up and was about to pull Yuesheng away, Donghuang Father saw this, rolled up his sleeves, and walked out first, regardless of their wide eyes.
Liu Shi and Chu Ruyun glanced at each other, looked at Wu Wu and said, "Then what can we do?"
Wu Xian, who had already been popularized by Jinxiu, looked around when he heard the words and said, "You little ones, just go to the mountains with your aunt and Aunt Yun to take back those edible wild vegetables and fruits, and when there is a real drought, these are life-saving things, of course, under the premise of all this, we need to ensure our own safety." ”
Hearing this, Liu suddenly became imposing, got up and began to nod his head and instructed, "Ruoxue, Ruoling, you two girls prepare more water and pastries, Mi'er, Yangyang, Luo Xiao, you two go and prepare bamboo baskets, bows and crossbows, Yunmei, let's go cook some sour plum soup and mint water.....
As he spoke, Liu nodded to Wu Yan and the others, turned around and walked away, and the people who were named by her also followed her honestly.
Old man Liu sat on the low kang and watched such a scene, sighed suddenly, waved his hand and urged, "Go ahead, I'm not going anywhere, just here to see the baby." ”
Yixin and Ruohan were originally smart babies, but the heavy atmosphere in the room affected them, and at this moment they were honestly hugging each other and leaning against the window to look at a dry person, with a face like a little adult, except for the big eyes that were purring, they didn't show any expression at all.
Wu Wu smiled, arched his hand to the old man, and said, "Then grandfather, you can sit at home all the time, and shouting at the textile factory and the mountain will definitely be very useful." ”
Seeing the old man nodding, Wuxian turned around and patted Junyi and Donghuangjing on the shoulders, and said, "Okay, let's go to the town first, specifically, let's wait until we finish loading this car and come back to see the situation." ”
All the young people nodded one after another, and after greeting Old Man Liu with a solemn look, they went out, and Old Man Liu in the hall behind him sat on the low kang and looked at the sky outside the paper window and sighed leisurely, "Isn't this really a punishment from heaven?"
But after going out, Jinxiu went straight to the village chief's house, but he didn't want to knock on the door in a hurry and see the same solemn face of the old village chief
"It's not a dull day before the rain, it's really going to be dry, so obvious, many old people who want to come to farm have already guessed. Although he said so, the old village chief's face did not ease at all, "However, this drought is purely a natural disaster, and if we publicize it, we will inevitably be used as a raft." ”
As he spoke, the old village chief had already moved his gaze to Jinxiu, "Girl, this matter can be big or small, can you protect it?"
The girl in Tsing Yi showed her face and bowed, "I'm here, it means that I can hold on to this matter, west of Surabaya City, you can toss it casually, more, not to mention whether my ability is limited, it is really a small heart, and I can't tolerate so much." The splendid smile was a little more meaningful, "Moreover, as soon as the natural disaster comes, this northern region will definitely be chaotic, let's take care of ourselves first." ”
The old village chief nodded, his heart was much lighter, and he turned to look at Jinxiu and said, "I have calculated, this ninth day of the fifth month is a good day, but if this natural disaster spreads, you ....."
Jinxiu was clear, and looked at the sky, "It's not the time to be so anxious, and Jinxiu is just asking for an auspicious peace of mind, grandpa, at this time, I have to bother you to do it for me, and I will also give you a help, what do you think?"
Hearing this, the old village chief nodded helplessly and lovingly on his forehead, "Ghost ......"
