Fairview Nongmen Xiaofu Girl

Chapter 50 Panic

The river is rising?

The weak people panicked!
Ruokawa ran out and opened the door.

The village head hurriedly said: "Quick, hurry up and help strengthen the embankment."

Jiang's hands were shaking: "Is the village chief about to break the dike? Should we go up the mountain to hide?!"

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

Mrs. Lei: "The water level has risen so quickly? Why so fast!"

The village chief said anxiously: "No, it's almost up. The rain is too heavy. I think if it keeps raining like this, no one will know it will break tonight! I have never seen such a big storm in decades of life." Yu! Hurry up! Villagers from other villages have mobilized! I'll notify others."

The village chief dropped these words and ran away.

Ruochuan turned to Mrs. Lei and said, "Mom, I'm going to help reinforce the river embankment."

Ruohe: "Mom, I'm going too."

Ruojiang: "I'm going too!"

weak boat: "I'll go too!"

Mrs. Jiang pulled Ruojiang: "Mr., you have trouble with your legs and feet, don't go!"

Ruojiang: "Don't be afraid, my legs are much better."

Mrs. Lei also said: "Second brother, don't go! You have to leave a man at home."

Ruoxuan also wanted to go and see, she could tell at a glance whether the embankment was firm or not: "I'll go too."

"No!!!!" the whole family said in unison.

Xuan Bao is so young, what are you doing there?
Besides, even if you wear a coir raincoat in such a heavy rain, you will definitely get wet. It is cold now, and it is easy to get a cold when your clothes are wet.

Ruoxuan looked at Mrs. Lei.

Mrs. Lei firmly disagreed: "Xuan Bao is good, it's raining too much."

Ruoxuan turned to look at Mrs. Liu.

Liu looked up at the sky when Xuanbao's neck tended to turn, ah, there is so much rain in the sky, one drop, two drops
This damn rain is like splashing water!
Liu couldn't help but worry too.

Weak Xuan: ...

In the end, Wuhe, Wuchuan and Wuzhou quickly put on their raincoats and ran out.

The water on the village road flowed downhill, and the three of them walked on the water to the official road wearing straw sandals.

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

The rice in the paddy fields was also half flooded.

The previous county magistrate of Shaxi County did not do anything, and the water conservancy was not done well. The ditches beside the fields were dug by the villagers themselves, and they were only used to facilitate irrigation, and no consideration was given to dredging storms and floods.

At this moment, the water in the channel has risen and connected with the fields.

In the field, one by one villagers braved the heavy rain to rush to harvest.

Some even cried aloud while harvesting.

"It's a crime, why is it raining so hard! My rice is not ripe yet!"

"Oh, oh, God, stop it! The rice is about to be submerged!"

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

Ruochuan couldn't help but said: "You deserve it. The county magistrate has already offered to reduce the field tax by ten kilograms per mu to persuade everyone to harvest the rice quickly, but they won't. So crying now is useless!"

Weak Zhou: "It's your own fault, you don't deserve sympathy!"

Ruohe watched a slender figure working hard in the rain, feeling a little unbearable.

At this moment, the village chief yelled in the field: "Men, hurry up and strengthen the embankment, don't harvest rice! If the embankment breaks, let alone the rice, the house will be destroyed, everyone will be washed away, and life will be lost!"

Ruochuan pulled Ruohe: "Third brother, let's go to the river embankment to help!"

Ruohe also nodded with familiarity, and the three of them quickly ran towards the river embankment.

The village chief continued to shout in the field:
"Stop harvesting this rice and go home quickly! Are you desperate for your life? It's raining so heavily and it's so cold. It's not worth it to die if you get sick from soaking in the water!"

"Girls, go home quickly, the man will carry the sandbags for me! It's still harvesting rice at this time, what a fart!"

"Why did you go there so early? Are you all dead? They said there was a flood, but they didn't believe it. Hurry up and move the sandbags, otherwise, let alone the rice is gone, the people will be gone!"

The village chief was so angry that he hurriedly cursed and cursed.

The villagers panicked even more when they heard that the embankment burst was no joke, and everyone ran to the embankment one after another.

Daniu's mother cried out in fright: "Woo, the village chief won't break the dike, will he? What about our rice?"

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

Now there is nothing left!
Her family has five acres of land!
The village chief was angry: "What should I do? Wait for death!"

The village head had never seen such a big water in his life for decades, and he panicked himself.

The village chief shouted to several villagers and rushed to the embankment.

There are already many people busy on the river embankment, some are busy loading sandbags, and some are busy carrying sandbags.

In the cold rain, everyone didn't even wear coir raincoats, so they braved the rain to rescue them.

The three people in Ruochuan picked up the sandbags and ran to the river embankment to put them on top of the sandbags thrown by others to fill the river embankment.

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

The water level is too high!

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

Ruozhou grew up to be a teenager, and it was the first time he saw the water level of the Xishui River so high. He said in a panic, "Uncle Wu, will the water rise?"

Ruokawa frowned: "It is estimated that it will continue to rise, but I don't know where it will eventually rise."

Ruohe knew better. He looked into the distance with a serious face: "The peak of the flood has not yet arrived. I heard that the upstream county started to rain heavily the day before yesterday. It won't be long before the water from the upstream will flow down, and there will be a flood peak at that time." Crossing the border. Let's hurry up and raise the embankment!"

When the people around heard this, they were so frightened that they moved even harder to move sandbags!
This embankment is made of dirt and is not very high.

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

When the embankments burst, the floods would cause the whole house to be washed away, so everyone was very scared.

~
It was raining all the time, and it didn't stop even in the evening.

Although people from weak families don't have to worry about the crops in the fields, several sons and eldest grandsons have gone out, and the rest of the family are old, weak, women and children, and Mrs. Lei is restless.

Liu and Jiang were also uneasy.

They are making new clothes for the children, but one sleeve has not been sewn properly all day long.

The children were all nervous seeing this, and the brothers would always be noisy when they were together, but now they are all sitting there obediently practicing calligraphy.

Ruoxuan sat there practicing and watching her brothers practice calligraphy. She was the most calm and unfazed.

However, Xiuxuan sensed everyone's fear and felt that they should find something for them to do, so she said, "Nai, why don't you make some ginger soup for San Bo and the others to drink?"

Jiang Shi and Liu Shi stood up after rubbing against each other: "I'm going to boil now!"

Mrs. Lei: "Stay longer, wait for the rain to lighten up and send it to the river embankment to keep everyone out of the cold."

Fortunately, knowing that there would be floods, she asked Lao Wu to buy more ginger and keep it home.

"Okay!" Ms. Liu and Ms. Jiang responded, hurriedly put down their new clothes and walked out.

It's just that the two of them had just walked out of the main room when they heard the sound of a gong coming from outside: "The embankment is about to burst! Everyone hurry up and hide on the mountain! The embankment is about to burst! Everyone run quickly!"

Burst?

The people of the weak family panicked all of a sudden!
The whole village was panicked!
