Chapter 259: The title was forgotten
"Dad, don't think about it!"
Boss Xu said at the right time, "These days, you and your mother have seen the world and said in front of the little sister that it is raining, it is raining, and the little sister is learning to talk at this time!" ”
"You don't want to think about it, does my little sister know what the rain is?"
Boss Xu splashed a basin of cold water, and Old Man Xu wilted instantly.
Yes, the girl is indeed a blessed person, but the girl is so little, how do you know what rain is?
If it doesn't rain in this God, where can people predict it?
Old Man Xu sighed and looked up at the sky.
It's still blue and the sun is shining.
Between heaven and earth, not a single wind blew.
If it's going to rain, first there's going to be a little wind, and then there's going to be a little cloud in the sky.
But now, where is the slightest sign of rain?
Fu Bao didn't expect his father to believe his words at once.
But in fact, it's going to rain!
Not long ago, when she was asleep, she had a dream.
In her dream, she was playing under the sun, and then suddenly the wind rose, followed by dark clouds rolling in from the south, and then torrential rain poured down.
Then, she woke up.
Of course, this may also be a day of thinking and sleeping.
During this time, the sun was getting old, and Fu Bao's daily activities outside were restricted.
There are already elderly people and children in the village who are suffering from heat stroke because the weather is too hot.
Mrs. Xu talked to the women in the village every day, and the east and west were short, so that Fu Bao knew a lot about what happened in Lingshui Village.
As a result, Fu Bao had stopped praying for rain for some time, and recently started praying again.
"Dad, where are we raising this horse? Our territory is getting smaller and smaller! ”
Boss Xu was sticky with his beloved horse for a while, and finally remembered the key question.
The livestock shed in his backyard is a little crowded with three horses. Now there are three more horses, and the livestock shed in the backyard is obviously not enough.
"Let's build another shed!"
Old Man Xu sighed, at this time, there was no other way than to build another shed.
It's not difficult to build a shed, just a few pieces of wood and some cattails.
There is no shortage of wood, and any family in the village will have a few pieces of wood to prepare, and the old Xu family is no exception.
It's just that where to place this newly built shed needs to be carefully chosen.
There is no place in the backyard, and the well is drilled in the east, which is not very suitable for building sheds, after all, the people in the village are all here to use water, and they can't guard the livestock.
As for the courtyard wall on the west side, it faces the street of the village, and there is no place to move.
Not to mention in front of the door, this person comes and goes, and it is not suitable for building a shed at all.
"Or, in the eastern fields?"
Old Man Xu looked left and right, and finally aimed at the field that his family had just bought.
Although it is next to the Peach Blossom River, the crops in this field have basically withered during this drought.
Only a few crops in the field are still stubbornly fighting.
But everybody understands that if it doesn't rain, the crops in these fields will wither for three or two days at most. The water of the Peach Blossom River has been cut off, and the villagers continue to dig deep into the river, relying on the little water seeping out of the ground, which is really a drop in the bucket.
"Dad, it seems to be windy!"
Just when Boss Xu and Old Man Xu were thinking about where to build a shed, Boss Xu suddenly turned his head and looked south.
Old Man Xu stopped, stood in place for a while, and nodded excitedly.
It's really windy!
Southerly!
Although the wind is not strong, the whole person feels different when the wind blows.
Old Man Xu remembered what his daughter said again, it was raining.
Is it really going to rain?
"Dad, look, look, clouds, south, it's dark, it's dark!"
Boss Xu, who had been staring at the south, shouted violently.
"What are you shouting?"
Old Man Xu slapped Boss Xu's head, "Don't talk nonsense, hurry up, go build a shed, if it really rains later, your sister's foal will be drenched, you look good!" ”
“……”
Boss Xu suffered tons of critical hits in an instant.
At this time, is this the time to talk about this?
Isn't it time to talk about the rain?
"Dad, big brother, it's going to rain!"
Xu Lao Er came back on horseback, but before the person arrived, the loud voice had already floated over.
Xu Lao Er, who went out to ride a horse and gallop, rushed back as soon as he saw that it was dark in the south, wanting to share this happy mood with his father and eldest brother.
However, before he could re-exaggerate his joy with his eldest brother, he was slapped on the head by Boss Xu.
"Don't talk nonsense, hurry up, build a shed, if you get your little sister's foal drenched, I want you to look good!"
"I ......"
Xu Lao Er looked confused, is it time to care about the foal?
It's a pity that seeing the fierce appearance of his father and eldest brother, Xu Lao Er can only quickly tie up his beloved horse and go to work.
Seeing that it was getting dark faster and faster in the south, there seemed to be a faint sound of thunder, and the three of them couldn't care about picking a place.
He began to build a shed on the east side of the courtyard wall.
Xu Lao Er, who is full of strength, is responsible for digging pits.
Boss Xu and Old Man Xu quickly brought the wood over, and brought over the cattails and branches, straw and orange stalks.
The three of them work together, and the efficiency is not ordinarily high.
In less than a quarter of an hour, the straw hut was erected.
And not long after the grass shed was erected, the black clouds had already filled the sky above Lingshui Village, and it was dark between heaven and earth.
The south wind was blowing, and some of the wilting leaves were blown down.
With a loud rumbling sound, white lightning bolts lit up the fields.
Raindrops the size of beans fell.
"It's raining!"
"It's raining!"
"Oh my God, it's raining!"
In the pouring rain, all the people of the village ran out of their houses and cheered in the pouring rain.
"A little more, a little more!"
"Don't stop, don't stop!"
"God, you can't stop, let's go, let's go!"
Some fell to their knees in the mud and prayed to God.
……
This rain, starting in the afternoon, continued to fall until Xu Laosan came back from the county school, and there was still no tendency to stop.
"Sneeze ......"
Xu Laosan, who came back from the county school, was choked by the cold.
Wang immediately went to the kitchen to cook ginger brown sugar water for Xu Laosan, and let him drink two large bowls in a row, so that he could feel a little warm.
"It's raining heavily!"
"Don't you know that the streets of the county town are flooded!"
"What the hell is this weather, it didn't fall in the moon for a few months ago, and it suddenly started to rain, so there won't be a lot of water!"
Xu Laosan said a little depressed.
Syllable!
As soon as he finished speaking, he was directly slapped by his mother-in-law, Mrs. Xu, "Hurry up and swoop it off, if you say this kind of thing again, the feather duster will whip you!" ”
