It was dark and bright, bright and dark, and time passed day after day, and the light rain never stopped. The gloomy rainy day did not affect the restaurant's business, and there was still an endless stream of customers, from the back kitchen to the guys, all of whom were busy with the wind on their feet. The rain has been falling for five whole days, and it doesn't seem to have stopped, Su Yan looked at the sky uneasily, and she didn't know if the letter had been delivered to Shen He, and whether her daughter was okay.

"It's really a sin on this rainy day, it's not easy to have a meal, and my trouser legs are wet." The guest who had just walked into the restaurant shook the water on the oil-paper umbrella and gently wiped the raindrops splashing on his clothes.

Another guest answered, "No, it's bad to mention this ghost weather." Brother Tang, don't you know, all my batch of medicinal materials were rained, and a few hundred taels of silver were wasted like this, and it hurts to think about my heart and liver. ”

"I reminded you a long time ago to let you take a look at the celestial phenomena, look, if you don't listen to me, you will suffer." The man who was called Brother Tang spread his hands and said.

"Who said I didn't look at it, I estimated that this rain would fall for a day or two at most, who knew that it would rain these days, people are not as good as the sky, God doesn't appreciate food."

"Brother Qin, forget it, it's just a matter of a few hundred taels of silver, just catch Ming'er and earn it back." The man surnamed Tang comforted, "Compared to those croppers, what kind of loss are you." Now is the time when the rice is ripe, and the harvest will begin in half a month. Our Changping town is not bad, the drainage is smooth, and several other counties are miserable, the crops are flooded, and the rice is soaked in water in large areas, I am afraid that there will be no harvest, I look at the price of this rice this year, I am afraid that it will rise again. ”

"The price of rice is expensive enough now, and if it goes up again, it won't make people eat it. In recent years, the rice business has become better and better, but we can't make a lot of money all year round, and I can do the rice business tomorrow. The man surnamed Qin sat on the edge of the table and slapped his knee hard, feeling really sorry for those medicinal herbs.

"It's good to have something to earn, be a man, be content. Compared to those croppers, our life is better. Look at those croppers, it is not easy to toss those few acres of land, and now it will be flooded when it rains. The man surnamed Tang shook his head and sighed, "I heard that the rain in Hu County is the heaviest, and not only the crops are flooded, but even the river has risen a lot. The government sent many officers and soldiers to build dikes and ditches to drain water in the rain, for fear that the water in the river would rise, and then Huxian would suffer. ”

"I've also heard that the place in Huxian County is originally surrounded by mountains, and it is not easy to drain water, if this is really a big flood, then the whole county will not be able to escape, and it will be tens of thousands of lives." The man surnamed Qin sighed.

"Hey, I can only pray that the rain will stop soon." The man surnamed Tang sighed, "Don't say it, come, order, I'll do it today." ”

Su Yan had been standing on the side, and the words spoken by the two men had inadvertently entered her ears, and when she heard the words "big water", Su Yan couldn't help but shudder.

Flood......

Xiaoyue's dream was that her daughter was swept away by the water, could it be related to Hu County?

"Auntie, aunt, aunt—"

Su Yanzheng was thinking wildly, and suddenly heard Xiao Yue's cry, and as soon as she turned around, Xiao Yue crashed into her arms, hugged her legs tightly, and cried: "Auntie......"

Xiao Yue was very excited, and kept stomping her feet, anxious and angry, Xiao Mo ran out after Xiao Yue. Su Yan didn't know what was going on with Xiao Yue, didn't she and Xiao Mo play in the back compartment. Su Yan squatted down, held Xiao Yue's small shoulders, and asked softly, "What's wrong?" Did Xiaomo bully you and cry so sadly? ”

Xiao Yue took a handful of snot and tears, and her body couldn't help but tremble, it was completely different from weekdays, Xiao Yue raised her head and cried, crying until she couldn't speak.

Su Yan turned his head to look at Xiaomo and asked, "Xiaomo, what's wrong with Xiaoyue?" ”

Xiaomo also looked nervous: "Just now I fell asleep with Xiaoyue in the back compartment, and I was sleeping in a daze, Xiaoyue suddenly cried, and then ran out, I was also wondering." ”

"Okay, Xiaoyue doesn't cry, you tell your aunt, what's wrong?" Su Yan saw that Xiaomo didn't understand the situation, so she quickly wiped Xiaoyue's tears and comforted her softly, "There is an aunt here, don't be afraid." ”

Xiao Yue cried for a long time, and finally relieved herself, tugged at Su Yan's sleeve, and said intermittently: "Aunt...... Aunt, save ...... Save...... She, ...... quickly Save her, she, she...... If she is going to die, save her! ”

"Save her? Who? Su Yan asked in surprise, "Is it my daughter?" ”

"Hmm." Xiaoyue nodded like pounding garlic, and kept wiping her tears, "I just dreamed again, I dreamed that she was swept away by the water, and she was hit by a wood in the water and vomited blood, auntie, you save her, save her quickly, otherwise she will die!" ”

"Xiaoyue, it's not that my aunt doesn't want to save her, it's that my aunt doesn't know where she is."

Su Yan sighed and said, there has been no news of the letter to the capital so far, and even if she wants to save it, she is powerless.

"I know, I know where she is!" Xiao Yue listened to Su Yan's words, and immediately answered, "I, I dreamed that the water washed a stone tablet, and there were two words written on it, what county, but, but I don't know how to pronounce the first word." ”

Xiaoyue was tearful and a little aggrieved. When Su Yan heard this, she shuddered, what kind of dream did this little girl have, the more she talked about it, the more mysterious it became, and she couldn't help but believe it.

"Do you remember how the first word was written? Write it out and show it to your aunt. ”

"Remember!" Xiao Yue wiped a handful of tears, ran to the counter to get a pen and paper, and wrote it out one by one, and the word "Hu" was impressively reflected on the paper.

"Hu County?!" Su Yan cried out in a lost voice, "Is it Hu County?" Satsuki, are you sure you read that right? ”

"I could see very clearly that the stone tablet with these two words written on it was slowly submerged by the water as well."

Thinking of what the two men said just now, Su Yan couldn't help but take two steps back, there was such a coincidence and such a bizarre thing in the world! Could it be that her daughter, who has never met before, is in Hu County?

Su Yan trembled her lips and asked faintly, "Xiaoyue, do you see what that little girl looks like?" ”

"I can see clearly, she looks very similar to her aunt." Xiao Yue tilted her head and thought about it, "By the way, her name seems to be Nianqing, Nianqing, Nianqing." ”

"Nianqing? Really? ”

"Really, I heard someone call her that in my dreams!" Xiao Yue saw that Su Yan was a little unconvinced, and couldn't help but be anxious.

"Mother, is it really my sister?" Xiao Mo was also said by Xiao Yue to be very nervous, after all, it was his sister, what if his sister was really in danger.

"I don't know." Su Yan clutched her stuffy chest and shook her head, "My mother just feels that my chest is so stuffy, so uncomfortable, Xiaomo, maybe my mother should really go to Hu County to see ......"

"I'll go too!"

"No, you can't go, you have to stay here and take good care of Xiaoyue and the silly girl, my mother will ride a horse faster." Su Yan decisively refused, in case Hu County really had a big flood......

She must not let Xiaomo follow her on an adventure!

"Mother!" Xiaomo was not happy with Su Yan's arrangement.

"Obedient!"

Su Yan put on a mother's shelf, and Xiaoyue's dream was full of weirdness, which made her believe in the dream. She couldn't wait for the news from the capital to come, so it was better to go to Huxian to see it in person.

After deciding to go to Hu County, Su Yan didn't dare to delay for a moment, and immediately set off. Before leaving, Su Yan entrusted Xiaomo and the three of them to Shopkeeper Mu and Zhang, asking them to help take care of them and not let them run around. Before leaving, Su Yan said more, telling the shopkeeper and Zhang, in case she didn't come back, let Xiaomo go to Meng Haiqing, and let Meng Haiqing take Xiaomo to find his father.

Zhang's face was inexplicable: "Su Yan, what are you doing here?" It's like life and death. ”

"It's okay, I'm just in case."

Shopkeeper Mu felt that Su Yan's expression was very wrong, and persuaded him with good words: "Su Yan, it's raining outside, what are you doing in Hu County?" I heard that it was raining very hard and the river was rising, so I'm afraid it's not safe, so don't go. ”

"No, I have to go."

"You-" Shopkeeper Mu really didn't understand what Su Yan was doing, "Then it's not too late for you to wait for the rain to stop, what's so important?" ”

"Can't wait, it's too late, maybe ......" Su Yan didn't continue, if Xiaoyue's dream was true, then she would only be able to see the corpse if she went late.

No, not even a corpse!

"Su Yan, your eldest brother is right, if there is something to do, the rain will stop and then do it, and there is no hurry." Zhang also followed and persuaded, many people have said that Hu County is not safe now, if Su Yan goes to a bad place, what can they do with Xiaomo.

"Big brother and sister-in-law, you don't have to persuade me, I have a sense of proportion, I have to go to Hu County to be sure. In short, Xiaomo, they will ask you. After Su Yan finished solemnly, he rushed into the heavy rain without looking back.

Xiao Mo took Xiao Yue and looked at Su Yan, suddenly felt so empty in his heart, as if he was about to lose something, Xiao Yue looked at Xiao Mo's expression, and said softly: "Brother Xiao Mo, did I do something wrong?" ”

"No, you didn't do anything wrong." Xiaomo whispered, "I think my sister is really in danger, because when I fell asleep just now, I also dreamed of her." ”

"Did you dream of her?"

"Hmm." Xiao Mo nodded lightly, "Maybe it's because there is a heart between brother and sister." ”

"If there is really a big flood in Nahu County, won't my aunt be in danger!" Xiao Yue suddenly regretted letting her aunt go out.

Xiaomo lowered his head and thought for a while: "Probably not, didn't you say that the scourge will last for a thousand years, such a scourge as my mother will definitely live a long life." ”

Xiao Mo didn't know if he was comforting Xiao Yue or comforting himself, subconsciously he didn't want his mother to take risks. But that's his sister, if something really happens to his sister because his mother didn't go, his mother will definitely blame herself for the rest of her life.

What Xiaomo didn't expect was that his mother's life experience was actually involved, and even his father and sister were also recognized, of course, this is a later story.
