In the blink of an eye, Huang Dou was nine years old, his uncle was fourteen years old, and Huang Delei was fifteen years old.

Soybeans have to help their mother with housework, tidy up the yard, and watch the chickens and dogs. Uncle is also a half-sized boy, and he can work in the field.

Soybeans went to private school just to be literate, and if they can read, they can say anything in the future. For her, no matter how long she went to private school, it was useless. In her previous life, she had been studying for more than 20 years, which was completely enough.

Originally, Huang Dou also hoped that his brother or uncle in the family could have a successful academic, such as taking a show, a jinshi and the first or something. It took a few years of private school to find out that this was really too difficult.

It is difficult to produce a noble son from a poor family, in ancient times, that was really certain.

Twelve-year-old Huang Tao, who also grew a graceful girl, worked at home with soybeans every day, led her five-year-old cousin Huang Pear, and took care of her two-year-old brother Huang Deyi.

Huang Delei followed his father to learn carpentry at home, and when he had a job, he followed his father to the village to visit households. I didn't have any work, so I made some small pieces of furniture at home and put them in the grocery store in the town to sell them.

Huang Deli stayed in the village to attend a private school, and Huang Pear was originally going to take it back. As a result, Huang Si's sister-in-law became pregnant again, and Huang Li stayed at the third uncle's house again, following the second sister and the third sister.

Huang Deming of the uncle's family is already married, and the sister-in-law has just come with good news, and Huang Deguang of the second uncle's family also said that he has a good daughter-in-law, and the date is set for the eighth day of October, after the autumn harvest.

Huang San's sister-in-law began to inquire about the school-age girls around, her family Huang Delei is 15 years old, and the children in the countryside get married early, they will get married at the age of seventeen or eighteen, and they will start looking for people at the age of fifteen or sixteen.

Huang Dou thought it was incredible, although her brother was fifteen years old and had a height of more than one meter seven, but in her eyes, this was still a child.

Knowing that she couldn't be the master, Huang Dou secretly rubbed and told her brother that if she got married a few years later, the man should start a business first and then start a family.

Huang Delei saw that Huang Dou was like a little adult and talked about starting a family, and he felt funny when he married his daughter-in-law later.

"Doudou, my mother said that I was worried about it a lot, and I didn't grow tall." Saying that, Huang Delei also pressed Soybean's head.

"Brother, I'll be serious with you, you must hold on, don't listen to your mother."

"Soybeans, are you itching your skin?" As soon as Huang Dou turned around, Huang San's sister-in-law was walking over with a broom.

"Ah, brother, you won't tell me when you see your mother come out." Saying that, the soybeans pulled their legs and ran.

In fact, starting a family is an excuse, Huang Dou just thinks that his brother is still young, and entering marriage too early will affect his health.

It's best to get married after twenty, of course, her mother will definitely not allow it, then the minimum age is eighteen, which is the lowest limit for soybeans.

Huang Dou was like a worried parent, whispering in the ears of his brother and uncle several times.

She thought, although the effect is not visible, at least she has planted a tree of responsibility in the hearts of her brother and uncle, and it will definitely take root.

This spring, when the summer began, it was dry, and the crops in the fields were watered by hand.

Huangjia has a lot of land, most of which are in the lower reaches of the canal river, which basically do not need to be irrigated.

But if it doesn't rely on the canal river, the Huang family's previous few acres of land will have to be irrigated by hand.

The farm is busy, and several families come together to cook, and when they eat, there are more than two large tables.

Yellow rice and yellow peaches belong to the typical kind of hard-working and hard-working without complaining, soybeans are not good, she can't bear hardship, and there is a kind of laziness of modern people, if you can lie down, you don't sit, and if you can sit, you don't stand.

It was because she was busy with the farm, she didn't go to the field and didn't cook, so in order not to lose her face too thoroughly, she took the initiative to take care of her younger siblings.

It's really hard to carry water for irrigation, and Huang Dou feels that he should still find a way to make money, at least to be a landlord's wife, and not to go to the ground.

When the rice was tasseled and filled, the rain suddenly increased, and it began to rain day and night

Huang Laohan came back from wandering around the field all morning and sat under the eaves and smoked: "Ronggui damn it, this year's rice harvest is not bad." I'm just worried that this rain will keep falling and it will be easy to get into trouble. ”

Grandma Huang was sitting in the hall making shoes for her youngest son, half the size of the child, running crazy outside when she saw the sky, and the shoes were particularly expensive. Hearing Huang Laohan's words, he walked out to look at the sky, the sky was full of dark clouds, the pressure was extremely low, and a heavy rain was coming.

"Dad, why don't you eat a bite of the mat first, and then go to the boss and a few of them, seeing that the grain is about to be harvested, but don't drown. Prepare to prepare, after this rain, as soon as the sky clears, we will harvest the rice, and we can't wait for the old age. Grandma Huang said as she prepared to go to the kitchen to serve the old man's food.

"No need, I'll go for a run first, they haven't gone through anything, they have to prepare early, and eat when they come back, it's really not good, they have to harvest it in the rain, and they can't waste the food they get in hand." Saying that, Huang Laohan went to the eldest son Huang Ronggui's house first against the dense dark clouds.

One afternoon, seeing that the rain was about to fall, but it never fell, the Zhizhi on the tree screamed desperately, and there was a feeling of hoarseness.

The yard was smoked with wormwood, but mosquitoes still hit people one by one.

The heat makes people upset and irritable.

At night, Huang Laohan stood in the courtyard for a while, and was just about to go back to sleep, when he heard a thunderclap, the sky seemed to crack a river, and the rain fell down.

Huang Laohan ran into the hall in three steps and two steps, and his body was still soaked by the rain. Grandma Huang hurriedly came over and took a dry towel and handed it to Huang Laohan: "Wipe it quickly." ”

Looking at the rain outside, I couldn't help but murmur: "This rain is falling like this, I'm afraid the ground is going to be flooded, God bless, don't fall down." ”

At night, Huang Laohan couldn't fall asleep in bed tossing and turning, and finally fell asleep, and after the early morning, Huang Laohan felt that his heart was stuffy, and he got up to drink water.

Grandma Huang hurriedly got up and poured him a bowl of water, and after drinking the water, Huang Laohan simply got up and walked out.

In the dark of night, only the sound of rain could be heard all around.

Huang Laohan stood under the eaves in a daze, his heart was indescribably flustered, and he always had a vague sense of ominousness in his heart.

Seeing that the harvest is about to be harvested this year, the crops are growing well, and the grains are quite full. The big guys are happy, and this year is not worrying about rations!

A bolt of lightning pierced the sky, illuminating Nanshan not far away, Huang Laohan's eyes widened, and his mouth opened wide, "Ahhh

Grandma Huang, who was following behind, found that something was wrong, and hurriedly slapped Huang Laohan on the back and shouted: "Old man, old man, what's wrong with you?" ”

Huang Laohan was slapped by his wife and shouted: "Go to the mountain." ”

Grandma Huang was so frightened by Huang Laohan's voice that she trembled: "What, what did you say?" ”

"Quick, call the kids, run." Huang Laohan reacted, went into the stove room, picked up an iron spoon and a copper basin, and knocked it on the ground.

In the sound of rain, the sound of knocking on the basin did not reach far away, but the sons of the Huang family and the whole family were all alarmed by the sound of the old man kicking the door and knocking on the basin.

Huang Guigui ran out while dressing, rushed to Huang Laohan's side in a few steps, and snatched the copper basin and iron spoon: "Dad, I'll come, you go first." As he spoke, he rushed into the rain and ran towards the village.

The heavy rain did not stop, and the men, women and children in the village followed Huang Laohan and his family to the west. The clothes and money at home are easy to carry, and the hands and feet are all brought.

The broken house is worth a lot of money, and there are still people who are busy packing up their things in the house, and the village is young and strong, and they will drag people when they go in.

A broken bell in the ancestral hall of the village has sounded, and after three rings, you must go, if you don't go, you don't care if you don't drag it away.

For a while, adults screamed, children cried, and wind and rain sounded......

The chickens, ducks and pigs raised at home cannot be taken away from the food in the house. Those who were ready to go back and get something more were stopped by the patriarch and the young man picked out by Huang Laohan.

More than 30 years ago, the people of Huangjiawan experienced a mountain walk, when Huang Laohan was still a doll a few years old, and stumbled and escaped after his father, and most of the people in a village were flooded by mud and rocks, and they didn't even need to raise a grave.

And the patriarch and a few old people all survived the catastrophe, so they knew that life was more important than wealth at this time.

A villager, as soon as he walked out of more than a mile, heard a "boom" behind him, and the ground trembled a few times.

The rain fell quietly, and the night became darker and darker, and everyone dared not stop.

In the rain, it was very muddy, and when I stepped on it, I pulled it up again, and even my shoes fell off.

Huang Dou and her sister Huang Tao held Huang Li's hand and stumbled in the muddy water. The three sisters don't know how many times they fell, and their hair was covered in mud and water.

As the sky gradually clears, you can faintly see the river in the distance, the embankment is steep and deep, and the maximum depth of the water is not more than half of the year.

Now the water has risen more than halfway, and it is just over two meters from the shore. The current was very fast, wrapped in branches, weeds, and some black things that could not be seen clearly in the yellow water.

When they arrived at an open place, the patriarch sent seven or eight young men to go back to see the situation in the village. The rest of the crowd didn't care about anything, and sat down in a relatively pleasing place.

Huang Tao looked at Little Yellow Pear's face covered in muddy water, and couldn't help but raise her sleeves to wipe her, but found that her sleeves were dirtier than Little Yellow Pear's face.

Look at the small ditch on the side of the road that leads water into the ground, although the water is mixed and yellow, it can be washed and cleaner than now.

Huang Tao saw that several uncles and aunts in the village had found a place to wash their faces and hands, and hurriedly found a small place to stand in a relatively stable place, first washed their hands, washed their faces, and wiped their hair.

Huang Li saw that the second sister was washing her hands and yelling to wash her little hands, Huang Tao hurriedly walked over, ready to take her sister over to wash.

As soon as he pulled the pineapple hand, the yellow peach suddenly raised his head, what about the soybeans?

At night, the rain was slippery, Huang Tao pulled his sister Soybean with one hand and Xiao Huangli with the other, it was difficult to walk, and then Huang Dou turned around and pulled Xiao Huangli's other hand, and the sisters dragged Huang Pear away.

I don't know when, the soybeans are gone, maybe they fell behind the line, maybe they slipped into the ditch on the side of the road.

The roadside ditch, wide and deep, is the main waterway for irrigating crops around and leads to the large river in front. And at this moment, the big river, the water is turbid, mixed with weeds and trees that rush down from nowhere, rushing downstream.

Huang Tao shouted with a crying voice: "Mother, Doudou is gone." It alarmed the tired crowd.

Huang Delei and Huang Guigui rushed over with a few steps, more than 20 households in Huangjiagou, but there were less than 200 people, and at a glance, there was no soybean.

Sister-in-law Song and Grandma Huang couldn't stand up and collapsed on the ground at that time.

The river in the distance, the wind and waves are fierce, and there is only a nine-year-old little yellow bean, and no one knows where it has gone!
