Chapter 196: The Tianluo River overflows
"Did your girlfriend get drunk like this before?" Li Chen said, pointing to the sleeping Xu Ru.
Ye Jingting rolled her eyes, "How do I know, I haven't seen her drunk before, otherwise I wouldn't have given her so much to drink!"
"It's really tiring, it's really hard to take care of drunk people, you are not allowed to get drunk in the future, otherwise you will fend for yourself, I don't care. ”
Li Chen waved his hand and said disapprerovitically: "Don't worry, my amount of alcohol is one of the best in the village, besides, have you ever seen me drink wine except for the Chinese New Year?"
"Yes, didn't you drink with the fat man and Zhang Zhe a few days ago!"
Li Chen, who was slapped in the face on the spot, smiled stupidly.
"Don't worry about these details," he said, decisively changing the subject: "I'll clean up, you go up and get two sets of blankets and come down to cover them." ”
…………
While packing up his things, Li Chen thought about where to arrange for these two people to live, looking at the appearance of these two people, they couldn't wake up until night.
"What do you think?"
Li Chen followed the sound and saw that Ye Jingting was walking downstairs with two blankets.
"Oh, I'm just thinking about where to arrange for them to live, after all, looking at their appearance, it's unrealistic to ask them to find a place to live by themselves, and both of them are drunk and don't feel at ease. ”
Ye Jingting said without thinking: "If you live with your parents, aren't there still many empty rooms." ”
"Uh..."Li Chen patted his head: "Look at me, ignore this." ”
……
……
At night...
Li Chen took a dish and said to Ye Jingting, who was helping to light the fire: "You go and wake up the two people on the sofa, I think if you don't call them, you can sleep until the next night." ”
Ye Jingting put a chopped firewood into the stove, nodded approvingly, and said, "Yes, and it's not good to sleep on the sofa after all." ”
When Li Chen came to the living room with the dishes, he saw that the two of them did get up, but they were next to the sofa, looking listless.
Turning her head to look at Ye Jingting, she wanted to ask what was going on.
Ye Jingting, who was brewing sobering tea next to her, saw Li Chen's eyes and said helplessly: "They are dizzy now, they don't want to eat, they want to sleep, and it took me a lot of effort to wake them up." ”
Li Chen looked over there, looked at the two who didn't have a hangover, and frowned, "Send them to their parents' house now?"
"Then what else can I do..."Ye Jingting also looked over, "Maybe I'll lie down again later." ”
"Okay, now then. ”
As he spoke, Li Chen called his parents to let him know.
The two of them held umbrellas and helped the two people who had not yet recovered from their hangover to walk towards the car, and drove directly to their parents' house after getting into the car.
When they returned home, their clothes were a little wet.
Looking at the already cold meal, Li Chen shrugged: "Let's go take a bath first, and the meal will be hot later." ”
"No, you go take a shower first, I'll wash later. ”
Looking at Ye Jingting, who was blushing, Li Chen didn't pay attention to it, and directly hugged him horizontally and walked towards the bathroom.
…………
The next day, when the sky was bright, Li Chen received a call from his fourth uncle......
"Hey, four ......"
"Xiao Chen, yesterday the river in the front flat section of Xinzhong Village has overflowed, and now the fields at the entrance of their village have been flooded, and it may not be long before they enter the village. ”
"I'm organizing the villagers now, you should also come over quickly, gather in the square, remember to bring shovels or hoes, and try to bring rice bags and ropes. ”
As soon as Li Chen connected, the fourth uncle's hurried voice came from there, and after he finished speaking, he hung up the phone before he came back to his senses.
The topography of Xinzhong Village Li Chen naturally knows that the Qianping section mentioned by the fourth uncle is next to the Tianluo River, which is a flat land, and it is also a fertile land cultivated by the ancestors of Xinzhong Village for generations, and most of the village's grain is produced there.
Xinzhong Village is surrounded by mountains on three sides, and the entrance of the village is facing the direction of the water flow, which means that if the water floods into the village, it will definitely accumulate in the village.
More than 30 years ago, there was a flood there, and the water directly flooded the village by more than one meter, and the whole village went to the back mountain to take refuge, and I don't know why some countermeasures were not taken afterwards.
Thinking of the news released by the weather forecast, this heavy rain has been raining continuously for more than a week, and it has only rained for a day and a night and has already flooded the front of the village.
After looking at the time, it was more than six o'clock, and I didn't dare to delay the time, turned on the light, lifted the quilt and hurriedly got out of bed and got dressed.
Li Chen's big movement woke up Ye Jingting, looking at her hasty movements, and the darkness outside, he couldn't help asking, "Is something wrong?"
"Xinzhong Village is about to be flooded, and our village has to go down to help. Li Chen lifted his pants and said quickly:
"I guess my parents will also go, and when you get up, I will call your girlfriends and ask them not to go out of the village, not to be near the water's edge and steep mountains, and I don't know when the flash flood will break out. ”
After hearing this, Ye Jingting also got up, "I'll go over to help too!"
Li Chen scolded her without thinking about it: "Where are you going, stay at home with peace of mind, as long as you don't let your girlfriends run around, you won't have an accident in order to join in the fun." ”
After speaking, he hurriedly went downstairs, leaving Ye Jingting looking at his back blankly.
Li Chen went down to the hall, picked up the raincoat and rain pants hanging outside the door, put them on, put on his headlamp, grabbed a shovel and ran into the heavy rain of white flowers.
trotted all the way to the square, where a group of people had already gathered, and it was estimated that there were more than a hundred people, and there were lights approaching one after another.
Li Chen deliberately glanced at it, they were all uncles and aunts in the village and some old people, but there were no children and tourists.
Looking at a figure on the cement platform, Li Chen ran up, it was the fourth uncle.
Looking at the fourth uncle with an anxious face, Li Chen walked quickly to him and asked, "Fourth uncle, what's the situation now?"
"I don't know, I just received a call from an old village head in Xinzhong Village before I knew that there was a big water down there. ”
The fourth uncle looked left and right at the approaching lights, and continued: "At that time, it was said that the people in their village had gone to block the water in the middle of the night, and now the water level is still rapidly approaching the village. ”
After a pause, he continued: "I guess I don't have any expectations for the water blockage, so I will call." ”
"Does the township or town know?" Li Chen asked what he cared about, after all, relying on these unprofessional dumbfounders, it is estimated that it is difficult to block the water, and if you specialize in it, you still have to rely on the government to organize manpower.
"I've been contacted, but I don't think it's so fast to come over. ”
"What about the old and young people of Xinzhong Village, have you arranged it? Do the villagers in the village know that they are going to accept the people of Xinzhong Village?" Feeling the big raindrops hitting his whole body, Li Chen became more and more calm.
