Is the river rising?

People from weak families are panicking!

Weakness ran out and opened the door.

The village chief hurriedly said, "Quick, go and help strengthen the river embankment." ”

Jiang's hands trembled: "Is the village chief about to break the embankment?" Shall we go up the mountain and hide?! ”

Fortunately, yesterday I moved food, some clothes, and quilts up the mountain.

Lei Pozi: "The water level has risen so quickly? How can it be so fast! ”

The village chief hurriedly said: "No, it's almost rising, the rain is too heavy, I estimate that if it continues like this, everyone doesn't know if the embankment bursts tonight!" I haven't seen such a heavy rain in decades of life! Hurry up! Villagers from other villages have been dispatched! I'm going to inform the others. ”

The village chief dropped the words and ran away.

Weak Chuan turned his head to Lei Pozi and said, "Mother, I'll go and help strengthen the river embankment." ”

Weak River: "Mother, I'll go too." ”

Weak Jiang: "I'll go too!" ”

Weak boat: "I'll go too!" ”

Jiang pulled the weak Jiang: "Xianggong, your legs and feet are inconvenient, don't go!" ”

Weak Jiang: "Don't be afraid, my legs are much better." ”

Lei Pozi also said: "Second child, don't go!" A man has to be left at home. ”

Weak Xuan also wanted to take a look, and she could tell at a glance if the river embankment was not strong: "I'll go too." ”

"No!!!" The family said in unison.

Xuanbao is so small, what are you going to do?

Besides, even if you wear a coat in such a heavy rain, you will definitely get wet, and now that the weather is cold, it is easy to get wind chill when your clothes are wet.

Weak Xuan looked at Lei Pozi.

Lei Pozi resolutely disagreed: "Xuan Bao, the rain is too heavy." ”

Weak Xuan turned her head to look at Liu.

When Xuanbao's neck had a tendency to turn, Liu looked up at the sky, ah, there was so much rain in the sky, one drop, two drops

This damn rain is like splashing water!

Liu couldn't help but worry.

Weak Xuan: ......

In the end, the three of Weak River, Weak River and Weak Boat quickly put on their robes and ran out.

The water on the village road flowed to a low place, and the three of them wore straw sandals and stepped on the water to walk towards the official road.

As soon as I walked out of the village, the wetland that had been overgrown with wild grass had become a vast ocean, and it was all a chaotic yellow.

Half of the rice in the paddy field was also flooded.

The previous county magistrate in Shaxi County did not do anything, and the water conservancy was not done well, and the ditches on the edge of the fields were all dug by the villagers themselves, only for convenient irrigation, and did not consider dredging heavy rains and floods.

At this moment, the water of the channel has risen and joined the field

In the fields, villagers braved the heavy rain to harvest.

Some even wept loudly while harvesting.

"Why is it raining so heavily! My rice is not ripe! ”

"Oh oh, don't go! The rice is going to be drowned! ”

But their cries and tears were drowned in the majestic rain, and no one heard them.

Weak Chuan couldn't help but said: "You deserve it, the county magistrate has already used a ten pound per mu to reduce the field tax to persuade everyone to quickly harvest the rice, they don't accept it, now crying, crying is useless!" ”

Weak boat: "The blame is self-inflicted, not worthy of sympathy!" ”

Weak River watched a slender figure working hard in the rain, and felt a little unbearable.

At this time, the village chief shouted in the field: "Men hurry up and strengthen the embankment, don't harvest rice!" If the embankment bursts, not to mention the rice, the houses will be washed away, everyone will be washed away, and their lives will be gone! ”

Weak Chuan pulled the weak river: "Third brother, let's hurry up and help on the river embankment!" ”

The weak river also knew that he was familiar with it, and the three of them quickly ran towards the river embankment.

The village chief continued to yell in the field:

"Don't harvest this rice, hurry home! Are you dying? It's raining so hard, it's so cold, it's not cost-effective to get sick in the water, and it's not worth dying! ”

"Hurry home, the man will carry the sandbag for Lao Tzu! At this time, I still harvest rice, harvest and harvest a fart! ”

"Why did you go earlier! Are they all dead? They all said that there was a flood, and they didn't believe it, so hurry up and move the sandbags, otherwise don't say that the rice is gone, and the people are gone! ”

The village chief was so angry that he didn't choose to speak, scolded people every word, and was rude every word.

When the villagers heard this, they panicked even more, the river embankment burst was not a joke, and everyone ran to the river embankment.

Da Niu mother was directly scared and cried: "Woo. The village chief won't burst the embankment, right? What about our family's rice? ”

She regretted it, she knew that she would take everything like a weak family!

Now there is nothing!

Her family has five acres of land!

The village chief was angry: "What should I do? Wait for death! ”

The village chief had never seen such a large amount of water in his decades of life, and he himself was so panicked that he couldn't do it.

The village chief called out to several villagers and hurried to the embankment.

There are already a lot of people on the embankment who are busy, some are busy loading sandbags, and some are busy carrying sandbags.

In the cold rain, everyone didn't even wear clothes, so they braved the rain to rescue the emergency.

The three of them took the sandbags and ran to the riverbank to put them on top of the sandbags thrown by the others, filling in the riverbank.

When they saw the water level in the river, their hearts were cold!

The water level is too high!

The rolling flood, with some branches, wood and other things floating on it, was turbulent and urgent, and I couldn't wait to flow forward.

When the weak boat grew into his teens, it was the first time he saw the water level of the Xishui River so high, and he said in a panic: "Fifth uncle, will this water rise?" ”

Weak Chuan frowned: "It is estimated that it will continue to rise again, but I don't know where it will rise in the end." ”

Weak River knew more, he looked at the distance with a serious face: "The flood peak has not yet arrived, and the upstream county heard that it began to rain heavily the day before yesterday, or it won't be long before the water in the upstream will flow down, and there will be a flood peak crossing at that time." Let's hurry up and raise the embankment! ”

When the people around heard this, they were scared and moved sandbags even harder!

The embankment is made of mud and is not very high.

Most of the villagers' houses are adobe houses, which are prone to collapse once they are soaked in water.

The levee burst was even worse, and there was a possibility that the whole house would be washed away, so everyone was very afraid.

~

The rain kept falling, and it didn't stop until the evening.

Although the people from the weak family do not have to worry about the crops in the field, several sons and eldest grandsons have gone out, and the rest of the family are old and weak women and children, and Lei Pozi is restless.

Liu and Jiang were also restless.

They were making new clothes for the children, but one sleeve had not been sewn all day.

The children were nervous when they saw this, and the brothers were usually noisy when they were together, but they all sat there obediently and practiced calligraphy at the moment.

Weak Xuan sat there while practicing, while watching her brothers practice calligraphy, she was the most calm and unpanicked.

However, weak Xuan felt everyone's fear and felt that they should find something for them to do, so she said, "Milk, why don't you boil some ginger soup for the third uncle to drink?" ”

Jiang and Liu stood up after rubbing: "I'll go boil!" ”

Lei Pozi: "Boiled a little more, and when the rain is lighter, it will be sent to the river embankment to ward off the cold for everyone." ”

Fortunately, knowing that there would be flooding, she asked Lao Wu to buy more ginger and put it at home.

"Good!" Liu and Jiang both responded, hurriedly put down the new clothes in their hands and walked out.

It's just that as soon as the two of them walked out of the hall, they heard the sound of a gong outside: "The embankment is about to break!" Hurry up and hide in the mountains! It's about to burst! Everybody run."

Burst?

People from weak families panicked all of a sudden!

The whole village panicked!
