Chapter 48: The Flood
Lin Xiaoshu finally found the old lady in a temporary shack. "Grandma, are you alright?" Lin Xiaoshu touched Ms. Guo's clothes, fortunately, her body was dry.
Ms. Guo took off her cheongsam and put on the coarse cloth clothes for work, which did not affect her noble temperament in the slightest.
"It's okay, look at your urgency, this shack is tight!" The old lady wiped the sweat from her granddaughter-in-law's head, loving relief.
"It's getting heavier and heavier, let's go back. Come, grandma, I'll carry you, you hold an umbrella! Lin Xiaoshu squatted next to the old lady as she spoke.
"My body is fine, I don't want you to carry it, I can walk by myself!" Ms. Guo is not a squeamish person.
"Grandma, you see you're wearing cloth shoes, and the road is slippery. Come on, don't look at my small skeleton and strong body. "Lin Xiaoshu's strength is really not small, it has been tempered over the years.
Ms. Guo was still insisting, and Lin Xiaoshu pulled the old lady on her back. After instructing him to take the umbrella, he picked up the old lady and walked back.
The old lady kept nagging on the road. She can't go out alone in the future, can't go far alone, and has to carry her mobile phone with her......
The old lady's eyes were a little hot. At that time, I recognized this child, but I just thought it was appropriate. After all, the grandson also thinks it is appropriate. I didn't expect that just a little bit better for her, this kid would iron you with his whole heart.
"Where did this old woman grow vegetables, why hasn't she come back?" At first, he complained that his granddaughter gave him an umbrella, and he was an old man who made a big fuss, and he couldn't sit still at this time. It stands to reason that the old woman is closer than him, so she should have come back sooner.
"It's back!" Xie Yun stopped and walked back and forth. The guards by the door had already rushed out like the wind. Seeing the situation clearly through the rain curtain, Xie Yun took out her mobile phone and pressed the shutter, and clicked send.
The old lady is fine, everyone is relieved. After each went to change and wash, it was time for lunch.
"Xiaoshu, isn't the lunch at noon today unappetizing?" Xiaohong put down her chopsticks when she saw that Lin Xiaoshu had only eaten half a bowl of rice, so she couldn't help but ask.
Since Xiao Wang's accident, Aunt Wu's spirit has not been very good. Cooking and some other small tasks all fell on Xiaohong. She had just taken over these things, and she often worried that she wasn't doing a good enough job.
"No, Xiaohong, your cooking is delicious. I ate breakfast late, so I'm not hungry. "Just listening to the sound of the rain makes my heart irritated. Lin Xiaoshu, who usually loves to eat, was stunned and couldn't raise her appetite.
"Xiaoshu, you just ate two small buns in the morning. Isn't there something uncomfortable? Xie Yun put down the dishes and chopsticks, frowned and touched her daughter-in-law's forehead.
"No, Mom, I'm fine. Let's keep eating. Lin Xiaoshu hurriedly stuffed the chopsticks back to her mother-in-law, and picked up the chopsticks again.
The old man looked at Lin Xiaoshu's cautious little expression and helped to relieve the siege, "If you don't want to eat, don't eat, just let Xiaohong hot things when you're hungry later." ”
"Mom, you think Dad may be really biased. If Xiao Yan doesn't eat well, you will yell at her! Xie Yun teased the two elders, and said to Lin Xiaoshu, "Mom just cares about you, if you don't want to eat, just watch TV." ”
The old lady also loved to help, "Go over there and watch TV, put a thin blanket on your lap." ”
"Thank you, grandparents, and mom!" Lin Xiaoshu smiled gratefully and sat on the sofa to watch TV.
"The heavy rainfall for more than ten consecutive days has caused disasters of varying degrees to most areas of our province. This is the most serious flood in our province in the past 30 years. Especially in Y City and Z County, the current situation is still grim. According to incomplete statistics, more than 300 people's homes have been flooded...... "
There is some distance between City Y and City B. Obviously, it was a news report that had no direct connection with Lin Xiaoshu, but her heart jumped hard. Especially in front of the reporter's camera, the camouflage back of the sandbag flashed away. A strong sense of familiarity fills the chest.
What the news anchor on TV was broadcasting behind him, Lin Xiaoshu couldn't hear it clearly. It's just that the boundless flood in the dream constantly overlaps with the turbulent waves on the screen in front of me.
"Grandpa, can I ask you a question?" Lin Xiaoshu's voice was a little dry.
"Come with me to the study!" The old man also heard the voice on the TV, and knew that the child's thoughts were in turmoil at this time.
"Come, help me grind, the inkstone you gave to grandpa, grandpa likes it very much!" The old man hoped that Lin Xiaoshu's nerves would not be too tense.
"Grandpa......" Lin Xiaoshu's mind only had the ferocious flood.
"Grind." The old man insisted.
"Girl, you should understand that you are not marrying an ordinary husband. Not only do you have to guard your home for Xiaocheng, but you also have a strong and tenacious heart to face and wait. The old man picked up the pen and indifferently swayed Danqing on the paved rice paper.
"Grandpa, Yan Qicheng went to the disaster relief, right?" At this time, Lin Xiaoshu couldn't think about the definition of 'military wife'.
Stubbornly asked the question she wanted to know the answer to the most. She knew that although a person like Lieutenant General Yan had retired, there would still be news channels for him, and he would definitely pay attention to his grandson's condition from time to time.
"Girl, I've already retired. But all my life, I have been a soldier of the country. Loyalty and confidentiality are my basic principles. ”
The old man sighed, this girl has put Xiao Cheng in her heart. It is the blessing of Xiaocheng and the blessing of the Yan family. However, every mission carried out by the special forces is top secret, and no one can say anything.
"I'm sorry, grandpa. It's me who lost my senses. Lin Xiaoshu felt that she was really stupid, knowing that it was completely different from saying it.
Can special forces carry out tasks on the bright side? Even ordinary military personnel on a mission, if not necessary, will not let any unrelated person know.
"Silly boy, what to apologize for, it's just that you care. Come, you also come to write, and writing is a wonderful way to meditate. The old man directly stuffed the pen into Lin Xiaoshu's hand.
"Grandpa, I'm afraid that if I don't write well, I'll make you laugh and waste your four treasures." In fact, Lin Xiaoshu didn't know what to write. Miss Lin has a beautiful face and body, and she practiced it in college.
"Haha, then I won't read you write. I'll talk to your grandmother, and you can practice slowly by yourself, let's go! "The old man is a cool man, he said that if he didn't look at it, he wouldn't look at it, and went downstairs directly.
Lin Xiaoshu stood stunned for a while, and wrote steadily: Jun asked that the return date was not due, and the night rain in Bashan rose in the lotus pool, why should he cut the candles in the west window together, but when it rained at night in Bashan.
Lin Xiaoshu finished writing the last word, paced to the window, and looked at the mist in the sky. I hope that the word 'lotus' that I changed to can bring blessings to men. You can usher in the good luck of 'reflecting the sun lotus flowers are different red'.
At the same point in time, a remote town in Z County, Y City. A simple tent on the ramp. In the tent. Yan Qicheng, who was covered in mud, was holding his head full of gnawing in one hand and typing words on the mobile phone on his knee with the other.
The signal in the town is not good, and the phone calls are always intermittent. I can't say everything completely and clearly. You can only compile the content word by word in advance, and when you have the opportunity to meet the full signal, you will send out the information.
Just don't leave the town. It seems that from today onwards, he will have to use this laborious method to report the progress of his work to his superiors.
As soon as Yan Qicheng sent out the message, another text message came in from his mobile phone. I thought it was the latest instructions from my superiors, so I hurriedly clicked on it. The content is not text, but a blurry picture.
Beads of raindrops fell in small streams and gathered on the muddy road of varying shades. The little woman's sneakers were submerged in the water, and her steps were huge. On his thin back, an equally thin old man was hunched over. I couldn't see the little woman's face clearly, whether it was rain or sweat.
Yan Qicheng had never been shocked like this, and his thumb gently rubbed against the screen. If it weren't for the fact that the picture is too real. He couldn't imagine that such a little woman's body could hide an unpredictable amount of energy.
What he couldn't do on his own, the little woman did for him.
"Report to the captain, Bihecun's bridge is broken, and the mayor asks us to help repair it!" The roar of the stone was remembered outside the tent.
"Inform the others and let's go! That bridge is the only way from the village to the town! Yan Qicheng put down his phone and left the tent. Sail.
The little wife guarded the small home for him. As a husband, I must try my best to protect everyone for as many people as possible.
