Chapter 438: The first typhoon did not leak
People living on the southeast coast are affected by typhoons from July to September every year.
It was only in the afternoon, and the sky was covered with dark clouds, like a black curtain covering the sky, and it was dark in front of me.
Ye Yaodong and his wife listened to the wind whistling in their ears, and there was a tendency to get more and more intense, so they hurriedly moved all the things that should be moved into the house, and all the cages of chickens and ducks were also moved into the house, so as not to add unnecessary losses.
Even the black shade net hanging on the door was temporarily untied and put in, so as not to be blown away by the wind.
By the way, the two children were also driven in, so that they did not run outside like crazy, and the other children also told them to hurry home.
】
Not far away, the waves also rolled two people high from time to time, rushed to the shore with a loud bang, and retreated.
"Wow~ What a high wave!"
The children stood in front of their homes and watched in amazement.
They used to live in the old house, and they didn't run to the shore during typhoons, and they never knew that the waves could roll so high, no wonder the adults didn't let them approach the beach casually in the past two days.
Ye Yaodong also looked at the beach in the distance, and said to them through a wall: "What is this?" Wait for the waves to be bigger at night. ”
"Then let's get up and watch again at night!"
"By the way, eat a meal of fried meat with bamboo shoots, it happens to be a typhoon day, and your father and mother are idle."
"Huh?"
At this time, the voice of Ye's second sister-in-law came from next door, "What are you doing standing at the door?" Come in and take a bath for me, wash it early, or if you run out of electricity, you will have to touch the dark, day by day, I don't know what to do? Clothes are dirtier than your dad......"
Ye Yaodong was still standing at the door and watching the churning tide, the yellow and turbid waves were higher and higher, it looked quite spectacular, and from time to time you could see big fish jumping in mid-air and falling into the sea.
He couldn't help but admire his eyesight, and he could still see the fish from a distance.
After standing for a while, the raindrops of soybeans fell from the sky, drifted along the wind, offset the position where they were originally going to fall, and were blown by the wind into a curve and dripped down, hitting the roof, falling to the ground, crackling.
Rolling clouds of ink obscured half of the sky, and the heat on the ground mixed with the cool breeze, mixed with the moist soil and grass, and the tip of the nose swept with the smell of moist earth.
"It's raining, Dad, is there going to be a power outage?"
"Not yet, there should be a power outage later, you guys go in first, see if your mother's rice is cooked? Eat early today. ”
The two of them were still standing motionless, Ye Yaodong saw that the rain was getting heavier and heavier, so he went back to the house directly, saving the two children from following him.
"The rain fell so hard all of a sudden, as if a basin of water was pouring down directly, so loud."
Lin Xiuqing was shaking the dishes in the pot with a spatula as she spoke, and Ye Yaodong couldn't tell whether her spatula was turning loudly or the rain was louder.
"Typhoon days, how can it not rain when there is a typhoon......" Ye Yaodong tilted his head and looked at the ceiling, "I'll go to other houses to see if there will be water leaks?" ”
"Probably not, there was no water leakage in the rainy season for the first two months."
"That's different, how is the rainy day the same as the typhoon day, the wind is so strong outside, don't let the tiles be lifted, and I don't know what the leakage will be......"
Ye Yaodong checked the inside and outside of the house, and found that there were no traces of water leakage, and he was immediately relieved, the newly built house was really comfortable.
I remember that when the typhoon hit last year, all the pots and pans of the whole family came in handy, but they were not enough, and they were there all night to collect water and pour water.
I can finally have a good life this year, and I should be able to sleep well at night.
The old lady sat in front of the stove to help light the fire, and also looked up at the beam above her head, and sighed: "For so many years, this is the first time that the house has no water leakage on the day of the typhoon, and this house is well built." ”
"There will be no leakage in the future, and after a few years of saving some money, let's add a second floor to it, and turn our house into a building, and you can follow me to enjoy happiness with peace of mind."
The old lady smiled happily, "Okay, well, I didn't enjoy the happiness with your grandfather and your father, but I did enjoy it with you." This is living in a new house, listening to the radio, and drinking malt milk essence every day, and the fairy life is not as good as mine! ”
Ye Yaodong chuckled, "Where is this?" The gods are not so cold, the good days are still to come, wait a year or two, I will buy you a TV, watch TV for you every day, and buy a Simmons to let you sleep in a soft bed, what is the calculation of wheat milk, it will not be rare to eat at that time......"
What he said was the truth, in a few years, all of these can be popularized, just buy early and enjoy it early, for the sake of the old lady, he can't wait for the popularization, she is this age.
The old lady coaxed him with a red face, and she couldn't close her mouth happily, "Okay, well, then I can count on my good grandson, waiting for you to get rich and honor me, and slowly enjoy happiness." ”
"Dad, I want to watch TV too, when are you going to buy ......?"
"What's the matter with you? I care about you when you're young, you have to care about me when I'm old, and I'm still waiting for you to honor me and buy me a TV. Hurry up and wash your hands, it's time to eat in a while, look at your black nails, I don't know, I thought you just finished defecation, and I'll cut one for you when I come over. ”
"Hmph, rub on you! Say I've just finished picking off my poop, and I'll wipe it on you. Ye Chenghu's naughty hands wiped his father's body twice, and then when his father raised his hand to hit someone, he hurriedly ran to wash his hands.
"Rabbit cub, don't fight for three days, go to the house to uncover the tiles."
Lin Xiu glanced at him innocently, "Who made your dog spit out ivory in his mouth." It's time to eat, and I'm pooping. ”
"You're talking too!"
"I'm just learning from you."
"That's what I said!"
Lin Xiuqing was angry, and she wanted to take a spatula and slap it twice on his face, "You go and wash your hands too." ”
While the family was eating warmly, the wind outside was louder and louder, the glass on the window was violently shaken by the wind, and the trees on the dirt slope behind the house also swayed and danced a crazy "disco", making a rustling sound.
The little light bulbs hanging overhead were all wobbly and flickering, and it felt like they were going to go out at any moment.
"There's going to be a power outage!"
"Ahh The power went out~"
The two boys suddenly had an inexplicable sense of excitement, and they didn't know what to be excited about when the power went out?
"Be honest with me, I'll go find a candle and light it in advance."
The light bulb above his head flickered on, Ye Yaodong got up and went to the cabinet to get the candle prepared in advance, and just got his hand, before he could light it, the light above his head went dark as soon as he snapped.
"Wow! There's a power outage! ”
There was also a burst of exclamations from next door at the same time, as well as excited shouts, of course, scolding was also indispensable, after all, they were all quite underwhelmed.
"Sit obediently, don't move, your father will go and light the candles, and it will be lit in a while."
"Wow~Whew~Whew~It's scary~Whew~The ghost is coming~"
"Ahh~"
Ye Chenghu was naughty and screaming there, which scared Ye Chengyang and screamed.
Lin Xiuqing stopped him, "Shut up, your skin is itchy, and I will give you a whip later." ”
As soon as the lamp dimmed, the room was instantly dark, he had seen the time before, and now it was only five o'clock, and today they all had an early meal, but the sky outside was already dark and he couldn't see his five fingers, and the black pressure was overwhelming, and the dark clouds covered the top.
He was very familiar with the layout of his house, and went to the edge of the stove to touch the matches in the dark, and the stove was warm as far as he could see.
As soon as the meal was cooked, and the countertop was still warm, he touched a small boxy box along the corner, and skillfully scratched it, and the faint candlelight instantly dispelled the darkness in the room.
"Dad, put me here, put me here......"
"Put it here, I want a candle."
Ye Yaodong ignored them, took the candle to Lin Xiuqing, and asked her to put it in the corner inside, and put some candle oil on the table to fix it, otherwise they would have no intention of eating next to the two children.
In case you accidentally knock over the candle, it's troublesome.
"Alright, hurry up and eat, and I'll order one for you and bring it into the house when you're done."
"It's fun to eat with candles, we haven't eaten with candles in a long time."
The orange light of the candle illuminates everyone's facial features and is extraordinarily soft, which makes him feel a little bit that it is enough for a family to sit and eat together every day in this life, no wonder candlelight dinners are so popular.
"The village is electrified, there are light bulbs and candles, and other villages are not electrified so early, and they don't know how much they want. Hurry up and eat, don't be wordy, I didn't eat a few bites of rice, and I talked a lot of words. ”
The old lady listened to the howling and hovering of the typhoon outside, accompanied by the pouring rain and the sound of the waves churning from time to time, and she was also a little worried about the old house.
"Before, I should have taken advantage of the fact that it was not raining to take your father and mother together, and the old house didn't know what it was like, they probably couldn't sleep at night, and it was better to take them over to make a bunk than in the old house."
Ye Yaodong also put down his fast, frowned and looked at the doors and windows that kept vibrating, it was dark outside, he could only hear the wind, and he couldn't see what was going on.
He stood up, "I'll go over and take a look, and I'll go and get them all while it's getting dark and the wind is just starting to blow." ”
Lin Xiuqing took his hand and said worriedly: "It's so windy outside, few people dare to stay outside......
Ye Yaodong shook his back, "I'm going to the village, not to the beach, it's okay, I'll put on my coat and hat for protection later, and I'm not afraid of things being smashed?" ”
The old lady also stopped him, "I just said that, don't run out, the wind is blowing so hard outside, it's okay for your father and mother to let them stay up all night, and it's not that they haven't survived......"
Although she is worried about her son, she also does not want her grandson to take risks.
"Don't worry, don't look at the noise outside is louder than ever, there is also the sound of waves here, so it seems to be huge, and it is not really powerful at this time, I will go to the main road, not afraid."
As he spoke, he had already put on his robe.
