Jia Shun nodded inexplicably, "No, that is, I worked under you this year, so I got cheap and free to come back to cut rice in the first wave, like some people in the village have little labor, or the men who went out to do work have not rushed back, so they will naturally do it slower, but this is not a big deal, the rice in the field will be harvested and dried in about ten days in the morning and evening." ”

"There's no hurry!" Nie Yaoyao looked at Jia Shun with a serious gaze, "Brother Shunzi, do you believe me?" ”

Jia Shun was slightly stunned for a moment and didn't understand what Nie Yaoyao wanted to say, but after these days of getting along, he deeply realized that Nie Yaoyao's mind and insight were more powerful than many older people in the village.

He nodded firmly, "I naturally believe in Sister Nie, if you have anything you want to do, just squeak, as long as it's not a difficult thing that hurts the heavens and reason, I will definitely help you do it." ”

Nie Yaoyao said with a serious expression: "There will be a storm in two days, so Brother Shunzi, you should dry the rice as soon as possible in the past two days, and strengthen the rain leakage places in your home."

"Storm?!" Jia Shun was surprised when he heard this, he looked up at the sky where not a single cloud could be seen, and he was very suspicious.

However, when he saw that Nie Yaoyao's expression was very serious, he couldn't help but believe it a little, and he frowned, "Sister Nie, are you sure there will be a storm in two days?" If that's the case, then you're in trouble! ”

Nie Yaoyao nodded, "I'm sure, as for how I know, I can't say, but Brother Shunzi, you have to believe that I won't lie to you." ”

Jia Shun pursed his lips and looked at Nie Yaoyao with serious eyes, "I believe you!" ”

"Heavy rain on the day of the harvest is a big deal, it will destroy the main crops, no, we have to hurry up and talk to the village chief."

Nie Xiaoxiao nodded, "I'll go with you." ”

……

"What?! Storm?! Village Chief Kang was so shocked that he almost fell off his chair when he heard Nie Yaoyao's words.

"What are you two children talking nonsense! Can this be said casually? Village Chief Kang was so angry that his forehead was bruised, and he looked incredulous.

For as long as he can remember, the village has been in good weather, and there has not been a storm in many years, and even if there is heavy rain, it will not fall when the crops are harvested now.

"It's true!" Nie Yaoyao explained seriously: "Let me tell you the truth, I met an old man in the afternoon, he accurately calculated my affairs, and also said that in two days, our Lotus Village will usher in a storm unprecedented in a hundred years, let me be careful against it."

Village Chief Kang felt even more nonsense when he heard it, "What kind of old way is so powerful?" What did he figure out for you? We countrymen harvest crops for such a big thing, how can we casually listen to the words of an old Taoist and mobilize the people? ”

Seeing that Village Chief Kang resolutely didn't believe her, Nie Yaoyao, who was anxious, gradually calmed down, she looked at Village Chief Kang and said seriously: "Uncle Kang, of course I know what crops mean to farmers, and I won't come here to argue with you without being completely sure, anyway, I have already reminded you, believe it or not."

Saying that, Nie Yao turned around and left without looking back.

"Sister Nie!" Jia Shun hurriedly chased him out.

Su Shi listened to the whole process on the side, she looked at her man's face with a sad face, and stepped forward to persuade: "I see that Nie Yatou is not the master of big words, I always feel that this little girl is different from us countrymen, it is better for us to believe her, listening to her words left and right is at most to make the villagers toss, but if there is really a storm, then most of the crops in our entire Lotus Village will be gone!"

Village Chief Kang let out a heavy and slow breath, "Alas, I'll try." ”

"Knock knock!"

"Who?"

"The village chief said that they would gather by the lotus lake! He's got something to say! ”

……

The village chief Kang has a good reputation in the lotus village, so when he heard that the village chief asked them to gather, the villagers went out one after another, and after a while, a large group of villagers stood by the lotus lake.

Village Chief Kang stood on a stone platform, looked at the villagers below with his hands behind his back, and saw that everyone was almost all together, so he said: "I called you here today to tell you a big thing, there will be a storm in our village in two days, so everyone will harvest all the crops in the field as soon as possible in the past two days, and find a way to repair the leaky places at home."

"What? Storm? Isn't that nonsense?! ”

"Yes, on this sunny day, why did you suddenly come to the storm, how do you know that it is going to rain, village chief?"

Several older villagers looked at each other and shook their heads, "Village Chief, this day is very good, it won't rain!" ”

……

The villagers were talking about it, and they didn't think that the village chief Kang, who was full of poetry and books, would be much better than them as authentic farmers.

Village Chief Kang had a calm face and shouted, "Okay, don't make any noise!" The world is impermanent, and if it rains, no one can stop it, and it is best if it doesn't rain, but if there is a storm, all the crops in the field will be destroyed! We would rather believe in what we have than what we don't! ”

"No, village chief, my man hasn't come back yet, and the baby at home still has to be watched, I can't take it." A young woman was embarrassed.

"My family is collecting it, but I have a lot of land, so it will take three days to collect it!"

……

The villagers all frowned, not wanting to work so hard, and looked at Village Chief Kang's eyes gradually revealing impatience.

How could this good day of harvesting be so upset?

The villagers' complaints were all seen in Nie Yaoyao's eyes, and she saw that Village Chief Kang would rather be alone and be blamed by the villagers, and still did not want to tell that she was the one who caused this incident, and she couldn't help but have a warm current in her heart.

"Can you listen to me?"

Nie Yaoyao walked in front of the crowd, turned to face the villagers and said loudly: "The matter of the storm is guaranteed by me and Village Chief Kang, I'm sorry, I don't have any evidence to guarantee that there will be a rainstorm in our Lotus Village in two days, but I won't toss the big guys easily for no reason, so please believe me and take precautions as soon as possible."

"What? You little girl knows what kind of weather?! ”

"I don't look like Nie Yatou is scaring us, otherwise I'll listen to the village chief, and I'll be tired for two days." In the crowd, Aunt Ma couldn't bear to feel that Nie Yaoyao was isolated and helpless, and said.

"You are just a soft-legged person who wants to talk to the village chief, I don't care what you think, anyway, my family doesn't accept it, and the two of them don't have much land to stand and talk without backache." A fierce-looking woman shouted this sentence and left in a hurry.

"I, I still have something to do at home, I'll go first......"

……

Soon, the villagers who gathered together dispersed, and in the end, only the village chief, Kang Wenxiao, Nie Yaoyao, Jia Shun and Ma Damiang's family were left.

Village Chief Kang let out a long sigh, looking at the blue waves of the lotus lake, his face was very dull.

Kang Wenxiao walked towards Nie Yaoyao and said with a slight smile: "Sister Nie, you are very courageous, no matter whether it will rain in two days, I admire you very much, you obviously know how much criticism will be met if you say such an unsubstantiated and changeable thing, but you still said it for the sake of the villagers of Lotus Village."

Nie Yaoyao smiled a little bitterly, "Thank you for your comfort, but unfortunately this vigilance doesn't seem to have any effect." ”
