Chen Changhai and his father led the carriage out of the village.

Outside the village, there was already a sea of water, and even the road could not be seen clearly, and if you were not careful, the carriage would sink into the mud.

"Hurry up and push it!" Chen Laozhuan grabbed the reins with one hand, and turned around to instruct his son and daughter-in-law.

Chen Changhai and his sister-in-law Zhao stood on the side and pushed the car forward with difficulty.

Han was at the back of the carriage, holding an umbrella in one hand and propping up the carriage in the other, a little at a loss.

The current was very fast, the waves had already hit her knees, and she couldn't stand steadily, where did she have the strength to push the cart.

Suddenly, the carriage slanted towards Chen's sister-in-law Zhao's side, causing the people in the carriage to scream.

Chen Laozhuan hurriedly shouted: "Don't let the car get stuck in the pit!" Saburo! Han's! Hurry up and give it a push! ”

Chen Changhai immediately ran to his sister-in-law's side to push the cart, wanting to straighten the cart and get out of the pit.

But the second sister-in-law Han didn't come over for a long time, so he couldn't help but be anxious and turned his head to look over.

Where is the shadow of Han behind the car.

After looking around, I saw an umbrella being swept farther and farther away by the current, and behind the umbrella, there was a faint figure struggling in the water.

"Daddy! The second sister-in-law fell into the ditch! "There are occasional ditches on both sides of the dirt roads in the countryside, which are convenient for irrigation of rice fields.

Now the traces of the canal are hidden by the rain, and once a person accidentally slips and falls into it, he will not be able to get up at all.

In addition, the current was very strong at this time, and it quickly washed Han Shi farther and farther.

Chen Laozhuan glanced at it and said coldly: "Regardless of her, get the carriage up first, there is still a family on the carriage." ”

In case the carriage overturns, the whole family will be finished.

Chen Changhai glanced at his second sister-in-law, who was getting farther and farther away, and stopped paying attention to it, and used all his strength to push the carriage.

The sister-in-law Zhao didn't dare to look in that direction at all, and worked hard with the little brother-in-law, and finally pushed the carriage right.

Looking back, there was no trace of it anymore, and even the umbrella did not know where it had gone.

At the other end of the canal is the Chuan River, which is now boundless, connecting the heavens and the earth, forming a wide body of water with here.

Zhao Shi trembled a little, and didn't dare to look anymore, only grabbed his fingers tightly on the carriage shed.

Chen Changhai wanted to go back and look for it, but his father stopped him: "Changhai! You're dizzy! The water is so deep, she doesn't know where to go, can you find it? Don't put our family in for her! ”

Han died just in time.

This was accidentally dropped into the canal by herself, and it has nothing to do with the Chen family.

With such a natural disaster, no one can predict life or death.

Later, Han's sister Xiao Han asked, and she also had a head.

Cui Shi in the carriage also anxiously persuaded: "Husband, the water is so big, don't take any risks, think about me and Kang'er, and... And the baby in my belly. ”

Chen Changhai was silent for a moment, then looked back and sighed in his heart. "Dad, let's go."

Chen Laozhuan loosened his brows when he heard this: "Okay, you and your sister-in-law should be careful, don't fall." ”

"Hmm."

The family walked in the water for several hours before finally arriving in town.

The town is indeed much better than their village, although the water has risen a little, but it is not serious.

Many families do not have a little water in their homes because of the high foundations.

The Chen family's carriage was the first to rush to the Rongji Pharmacy, and Chen Laozhuan found his granddaughter Chen Zhao and told her: "Zhao'er, your aunt was swept away by the flood, and it was Grandpa who was useless and failed to save her." He cried twice.

Chen Zhao was stunned, and only cried out after a while: "A-Niang was really washed away by the water? Why was she so well washed away by the water? ”

Chen Lao Xuan patted his granddaughter and choked up: "There was a big flood over there, the whole village was flooded, and many houses were washed down. Alas, it's good that your brother is being held by your grandmother, otherwise, alas..."

Chen Zhao sobbed and cried for a while, turned his head to look for his younger brother, and saw his grandmother Chen Fengshi sitting on the side with Xubao in her arms, not knowing what to think.

"Xubao." Chen Zhao rushed over and hugged Xu Bao, and cried again, so frightened that Xu Bao also cried.

"Don't cry, beware of scaring Xubao."

Chen Laozhuan looked around and asked, "Where is your aunt?" ”

Chen Zhao sobbed and said, "She suffered from the wind cold yesterday and was lying in the backyard house." ”

While the two ancestors were talking, Li Langzhong rushed over, arched his hand at Chen Laozhuan, and asked, "Is your village really flooded?" ”

"Not only was it flooded, but many houses in the village were washed down." In fact, the collapsed adobe houses were in disrepair.

"Oh, that's terrible, did you hurt anyone?" Li Langzhong asked.

Chen Laozhuan looked sad: "I must have hurt someone, my second daughter-in-law was washed away by the flood, woo... How should I explain it to Jiro? He hid his face and choked up.

Li Langzhong was stunned for a moment, and said comfortingly: "Mourning, fortunately, the others are fine, alas, if Brother Chen has nowhere to go, it is better to stay at my house temporarily, and it is not too late to go back when the rain recedes." ”

Chen Lao wiped his eyes and waved at Li Langzhong: "Thank you Brother Li for your righteousness, and my little brother is grateful." ”

So, Chen Laoshuan's family temporarily settled down in Li's house.

The next day, the rain stopped, and the accumulated rain gradually receded.

After a few more days, the water level of the river finally dropped to the safety line.

When the villagers returned to the village one after another, they saw that the ground was covered with mud, and there were fish and shrimp fluttering in the puddles on the roadside.

Many of the old adobe houses have collapsed, but the brick houses are still standing.

However, the upright house was stuffed with mud, and the walls and belongings were crawling with all kinds of insects and leeches.

Those who moved to Nanpo in advance were glad that they listened to Muramasa's words and moved their own food and bedding to Nanpo, otherwise the loss would have been great.

Those who did not move their nests were miserable, not only were their things blistered in the water, but even their rice and flour grains were soaked in water.

The worst thing is the fertile fields on both sides of the river, and there are not a single crop seedlings and rice seedlings left, all of them are gone.

Some sat by the fields and wept, while others secretly rejoiced.

Those who snickered were all listened to Muramasa's words and did not plant.

If you don't plant seeds, it means that your seeds have not been lost.

Dongcun Muramasa Saburo said that the flood crisis has passed, and he took advantage of the time to let everyone clean up the fields and replant seedlings.

In this flood, due to the timely reminders of Jiang Saburo and Sun Lizheng, although some of the houses of the villagers living on both sides of the Sichuan River collapsed, most of their property was preserved, and there were not many casualties.

As far as Xichen Village is concerned, it is also Chen Laoshui's family who is handling the funeral.

When Sakura Po learned that Han died in the flood, he was still a little surprised.

Unexpectedly, in this life, Han died early.

She wasn't happy, she wasn't sad, she just felt a little strange, and at the same time she was relieved.

The feeling of being strangled to death by the Han family in her previous life was still vivid, which made her palpitate when she thought about it.

Now that Han is dead, the big stone in his heart has fallen to the ground.

"Chun Niang, don't you know, the Han family was dragged out of the bushes, they all rose, and the coffin couldn't get in, alas, it was really a sin."

Tang sat under the eaves of the porch and took the soles of his shoes, and said while smoking twine: "Pity her son, he is only a little more than a year old, tsk, he has no mother at a young age, how can he be good in the future." ”

Chunniang didn't say anything, and quietly glanced at Sakura Bao, who was sitting by the window writing, and saw that her daughter didn't react, and she was a little relieved.

I heard Tang Shi say again: "Han's go, Chen Feng's seems to be a different person, I heard her neighbor say that she actually ate fasting and recited Buddha at home, and said that she would go to Simen to invite a Buddha back to offer." ”

Since the people of the West Village also moved to Nanpo, from time to time there were women and daughters-in-law who came to the East Village with a needlework and a needlework basket, so the Tang family listened to a lot of gossip.

Chunniang smiled: "Xu was a little frightened because her daughter-in-law died suddenly. ”

"No, I think so, too."
