Chapter 54: Pear Blossom Eight
"What a wonderful person." Jiang Changqing said in a low voice.
"What." Rika asked.
"You're very charming!" Jiang Changqing replied.
Rika: "Thank you! ”
The two were speechless for a while, and they walked silently, not Changqing looking for a topic to talk about, trying to break the silence: "Do you think we stand together, do you look like a talented woman?" ”
"I don't think so." Rika absentmindedly returned.
Gotcha, the day is dead again. Jiang Changqing's attempt to cause the topic again failed, and the two walked on the sheep intestine path one after the other, until they saw a piece of house before parting.
Pear Blossom hid out and was caught by Pear Blossom's mother, and was reprimanded again, Pear Blossom felt even more upset, and just wanted to find a place where no one was there for a while. In fact, no, she still has a lot of housework to do, and in a while, she has to go to work!
Jiang Changqing's arrival has brought a lot of topics to Fujiang Village. And he also brought candy that no one in the village had ever seen before, and distributed it to the children in the village.
Rika who never dreams or doesn't remember what she dreams about is frightened by the nightmare she had tonight. She remembered everything in her dreams vividly, even the horror that remained until she woke up.
In the dream, a fire-spitting dragon flew in the sky, spitting fire around the village, and the familiar faces either roared like wild beasts or turned into a burning man. Fire devours everything that has life, and every corner is spared. She could only run forward helplessly, as far away from danger as possible.
Spreading out her hands that trembled with palpitations, Rika kept telling herself in her heart that it was just a dream, a nightmare. Who hasn't had nightmares! After saying that, he lay back in bed and fell asleep again.
Jiang Changsheng was like a student in front of Jiang Changqing, respectful and obedient, pointing to the east and not daring to look at the west.
"This time it's a good job, you're the first to complete the mission." Jiang Changqing stood in front of the window and looked into the distance.
"It's not good enough, I can't get in inside, and I can't find out the specific situation." Jiang Changsheng returned.
Jiang Changqing raised his right hand and placed it on the light that the sun was shining through, "As long as we find its location, we will know the situation inside sooner or later." That village girl is not ordinary. ”
"I've been in contact with her a few times, and I've secretly observed her, and I've found that she's no different from everyone else. What made me suspicious was that she was the only one who could enter the mountain full of formation seals. Jiang Changsheng has to go to Tianfa Mountain once a day to check the situation, and today he is also quietly checking the situation around Tianfa Mountain, and when he heard footsteps coming from behind, he hid aside and saw Pear Blossom walk in with his own eyes. The entrances and exits are a bush of thorns covered with thick stingers, and if you are not careful, you may die.
"I'll find out about this matter slowly. Take advantage of the opportunity to get in touch with her more. Jiang Changqing commanded.
"Yes." Jiang Changsheng returned.
Rika had the same dream for several days in a row, and she was a little haggard when she looked at it during the day. Lihua's mother reprimanded her again, and her life is much better now than her days, and she still thinks about things all day long, and she is idle. also stipulates how much work Rika has to earn every day, to see if she still has the leisure to think about some messy things.
No matter how tired you are during the day, as long as you come home at night and lie in bed and close your eyes, the sky is full of fire. You can't escape, you can't break free.
Rika Mom scoffed at the dream that Rika said, and the children heard a lot of stories, so they had a dream related to it. It is said that there are thoughts during the day and dreams at night, but that's not all. Besides, dreams are the opposite, and it may be that the rain in recent months is indispensable.
As expected, there were several heavy rains in the southwest. Fearing that the heavy rain would cause the river to rise and break the embankment upstream, the captain gathered the village chiefs of each village and held a meeting, so that the young people in the village would not be busy with the affairs of the fields in the past few days, and that the embankment would be tight.
Pear Blossom's father took Pear Blossom's eldest brother, who had reached the age of sixteen, to build the embankment together. Because Rika is close to the river, the flood caused by the heavy rain will not pass her house first, and Rika will follow her.
A family of three wore rain straw and braved the rain to carry sand and gravel back and forth to block the embankment.
Rika was carrying a dustpan of sand and stones with the dustpan at home, and when she added it to the cart, her calf suddenly slipped, and she was unstable, and she was about to roll down the slope when she saw that Lianren Liansha was about to roll down the slope, and an unexpected hand wrapped her waist from behind.
"Are you alright?" Jiang Changsheng waited for the pear blossom to stand firm before letting go of his hand.
Rika shook her head.
"It's raining and the road is slippery, so be careful." Jiang Changsheng instructed. "In the current weather, you women should weave more bamboo at home, why do you follow us? How dangerous it is. ”
"There are so many aunts and sisters-in-law in the village, there is no more than me, and no less than me. Only my father and my eldest brother are not at ease, and with me with me, my mother is relieved. ”
The women weave bamboo and rainfall at home to do some support work in the rear, while the men come to the front line to do the work at the Sakago embankment. Rika only joined the team on the third day, and two days ago she followed the women in the village to do the same work, and Rika Mom was sad all day long, either worried about this or that. Especially the worry about Pear Blossom's father, and even more afraid that he will never return, these are all precedents. As the eldest child in the family, Pear Blossom should take on this responsibility, take care of Pear Blossom's father and eldest brother for Pear Blossom's mother, and report to her every day's progress and the situation on the scene at any time.
Jiang Changsheng: "In that case, you must be careful. Fortunately, I made a timely move just now, otherwise, the consequences would be unimaginable. ”
Lihua looked at the steep slope under her feet, "I'll pay attention, thank you Jiang Zhiqing for helping." ”
As the two spoke, there was another pouring rain, and the river suddenly gathered a lot. When I came this morning, I could still see the rocks on both sides of the river, but now that the water level has risen, the rocks are completely out of sight, and the rocks and trees closest to the water are also partially submerged.
"It's dangerous now, you hurry home." Jiang Changsheng shouted loudly at the pear blossom, it was really raining too much, and he didn't shout loudly for fear that the other party wouldn't hear it.
"What are you going to do?" Pear Blossom was also a little stunned, and her voice was crying. What should we do in this situation? If the dam is washed away by the flood, the consequences will be unimaginable, and there will be dozens of villages living downstream, scattered along the river.
"Obedient, you go back and inform everyone, once the river exceeds your pond, hurry to the high ground and stay, the higher the better." Not only Jiang Changsheng shouted to her, but the village chief and her father shouted to her at the same time, asking her to take her eldest brother and leave quickly and go back to inform everyone.
The rain did not know when it would stop, the two of them talked, the water level kept rising, and everyone continued to walk despite the wind and rain, carrying sand and gravel or using wheelbarrows to push the sand and gravel layer by layer on the embankment. Rika knows that every minute that passes now is dangerous, and it is not the time for her to be reckless. She returned to the village with her eldest brother who didn't want to leave, and wanted to stay with her father.
As expected, the water began to gradually flood up his small pond. The women of the village are either praying for God's blessing or hoping that their husbands will return safely.
Rika told everyone about the village chief's explanation, and some women who were weak in their ability to bear it began to break down and cry, even with their children, and everyone was infected, and for a while, the whole house was crying, which was the sound of thunder outside the window.
