I am a cripple in the Siheyuan. Who am I afraid of?

Chapter 317 The pouring rain keeps falling

Song Wu braved the rain, rode a bicycle and wore a raincoat and ran to the steel rolling mill to find Qin Huairu. Qin Huairu was cleaning up the kitchen when she saw Song Wu coming in a raincoat and asked strangely: "It's raining, what are you doing here?"

Song Wu said to her seriously: "Now that I'm asking for leave to go home, you can either take Banggan, Xiaodang, and your mother-in-law to live temporarily in Dongsishitiao Alley, or you can stay in Nanluogu Alley. In the courtyard, but you must remember not to run around casually, and don’t panic if anything happens, I will be there for you."

Although Qin Huairu's house in Nanluogu Lane had just been renovated, Song was still a little worried that it might collapse in a heavy rain. After all, the roof was only repaired at that time, and no one could guarantee the foundation and walls. So he still hopes that Qin Huairu can go to Dongsijiu together, but it depends on her own wishes.

Qin Huairu asked in confusion: "What's wrong?"

Song Wu simply said: "Don't ask any more questions. I estimate that it may rain heavily and it will be very dangerous. Hurry now. I have to go find He Yuyu and ask her to go home from the factory as soon as possible. Remember to say hello now and hurry up." go home."

Song Wu hurried away on his bicycle, leaving Qin Huairu with a confused look on her face. However, she still believed Song Wu's words and went back to the kitchen to make an excuse. After talking to Silly Zhu and the others, he put on his raincoat and rode his bicycle back home.

Song Wu rushed to the bicycle factory to find He Yuyu, "Hurry up and say hello, go back to Dongsijiu Alley, stay with your sister-in-law and don't run around. I think it's going to rain heavily today and it's not safe."

He Yuyu didn't ask any more questions, and hurried to Dongsi Tiao Alley according to Song Wu's arrangement. Song Wu rode his bicycle to Zhengyang Gate again. It was not safe here. The moat was not far away. It was hard to tell when the time came.

He arrived at the tavern and hurriedly found Yu Jie who was still in business. "Close it quickly. I will take you all to my home now."

Yu Jie was startled, "Why are we going to your house?"

Song Wu said: "I guess it will rain heavily, and maybe this area will be flooded."

Yu Jie hesitated a little. She bit her lip and thought for a while, then said, "But I can't leave the store behind. If it floods, I have to take care of it here."

The situation really got serious at 8pm on the 12th. The rain seemed to get heavier all of a sudden. It used to be just heavy rain, but now it started pouring down. It was like a hole had been poked in the sky and the rain poured down.

At this time, Lou Xiao'e already felt that something was wrong, because the rain was getting heavier and heavier. Especially after the sky darkened, it began to rain really heavily.

Judging from the news on the radio, it seems that the situation in Fangshan is more serious.

He Yuyu said to Song Wu: "Brother Song Wu, what you said will not really happen, right? I still feel a little unbelievable."

Song Wu estimated that the situation in the urban area might be better. As long as the houses didn't collapse and people didn't run around, they would only suffer a little. Unlike the villagers in the mountainous areas, who might face flash floods.

Yu Jie smiled and said, "Impossible."

Song Wu simply said: "You tell me what valuable things there are in this house. You tell me and I will help you get them. And if you said the child in your belly is important, these things are more important."

The reason why he was so nervous was because he was not afraid of ten thousand, just what might happen. Who knows how heavy the rain will be and whether the city will be flooded?

Song Wu's family, including He Yuyu, stayed in the north room of the main house. I don’t know if the two children also have some special feelings. They were very excited today and couldn’t coax them to sleep. The two of them were in the house, one person and one wooden horse, having so much fun that they didn't feel the adults' nervousness at all.

Song Wu returned to Dongsi Tiao Hutong. It was discovered that Qin Huairu hadn't come over either, so their family was probably staying in Courtyard No. 95.

Song Wu put on his raincoat and went out for a walk around the area. He felt relieved. The terrain here was indeed higher and there was no water accumulation so far. And he could see that the water was flowing toward the southeast.

In this era, there were no assault boats or rubber rafts, otherwise we could prepare them in the space.

"Do you believe me or not?" Song Wu looked at Yu Jie seriously.

Listening to the sound of rain outside, Song Wu pointed to the window and said to He Yuyu: "Think about it, how many years has it been since it rained like this?"

Even though Song Wu said this, Yu Jie still insisted on staying in the tavern. Song Wu had no choice but to say: "Put those who are afraid of water as high as possible. If you encounter any situation, don't run around. Just stay in this courtyard. I will definitely come over."

At this time, everyone except Song Wu was asleep in a daze, but the sudden heavy rain woke them all up. Lou Xiao'e turned her head and looked at Song Wu in disbelief, "It seems that you were right. I wonder if there is any place flooded?"

Song Wu motioned to her two children who were still sleeping: "Keep your voice down, don't wake them up. There must be some areas flooded. It's just the beginning now. We don't know how long the rain will last." Time, if it doesn’t last long, the situation will be more serious. If it continues like this, it will be troublesome.”

The rain really had no intention of stopping and seemed to be getting stronger. Song Wu patted Lou Xiao'e, who was nestling in her arms for comfort, and said to her: "I'm going to go outside and see if there are any flooded places, so I can make plans in advance." Lou Xiao'e grabbed him and said, "Don't go. Come on, just stay here, why are you running around, it’s raining so hard.”

Song Wu touched her face and said, "Don't worry about me. We can't just wait here. We must take the initiative to check the situation and respond proactively."

Song Wu still wore his raincoat and rubber shoes and walked out of the yard with a flashlight. At least until now, this yard has not been flooded.

He first ran to a few nearby sewers and listened to the sound of running water inside. He felt relieved, at least it was not full yet. He was worried, so he simply took out his bicycle and rode towards Nanluogu Lane.

The closer he got, the more panicked he felt, because water had begun to accumulate here and the sewers were full. He worked harder and rushed to Nanluogu Alley while he could still walk.

Compared with Dongsijiu Hutong, it is quiet and lively here. Every household in each courtyard was busy. Song Wu listened carefully to the noise, and most of them were leaks, not flooding.

There are too many old houses here, and they all live in large courtyards. Many of them have not been repaired for many years. They will definitely not be able to withstand such a heavy rain, and almost none of them will not leak.

Let’s not talk about other courtyards, just courtyard No. 95. The water at the entrance of the courtyard here has already reached the feet. When Song Wu entered the courtyard, he found that the same was true in the courtyard. Water had also begun to accumulate. However, even so, the people in the courtyard didn't care about the water accumulation at all, because they were all busy with the leakage at home.

The lights in every house were on, and almost no one was sleeping. Song Wu came to the door of Qin Huairu's house with water flowing. The movement inside was normal. They were just chatting about family issues. He first took out more than a dozen sandbags from the space, and took some food, and then knocked on the door. .

"Who is it?" Qin Huairu asked from inside.

"Me. Song Wu." As soon as he finished speaking, there was a rush of footsteps in the room, and soon the door was opened, revealing Qin Huairu's surprised face.

Song Wu just took off his raincoat and hat. His hair was already wet, but he still smiled and said to Qin Huairu, "Let me come over to see how the situation is here?" Qin Huairu pulled Song Wu into the room. He turned over and took a towel from the washbasin shelf to wipe the rainwater from his head, face and neck.

Originally, Mrs. Jia Zhang was very happy to see Song carrying so many things. There was a smile on her face and she could hardly close her mouth.

However, when she saw her daughter-in-law being so affectionate to Song Wu in front of her, Jia Zhang, who was still smiling, immediately looked embarrassed.

She even wanted to go directly to the inner room now, out of sight and in peace. But just as she was about to take a step, she heard Song Wu say at this time: "I just came over to take a look. If nothing happens, I have to leave quickly. It's raining too much." It's big. No matter what happens, you must not run around. This house has just been repaired. Even if it floods, there will probably be no danger. These food and drinks are provided for you in an emergency. Just stay in the house with peace of mind and don't run around. . Later, you close the door, and I will use sandbags to make your door strong for you. If the water comes up, it will be able to hold on for a while."

Qin Huairu's mood at the moment didn't care about Jia Zhang. She stood on tiptoes and hugged Song Wu's neck and kissed him on the mouth.

Come on, Mrs. Jia Zhang turned around and went to the inner room.

With the softness and lingering fragrance of Qin Huairu's lips still on Song Wu's lips, he put on his raincoat and hat again and walked out of No. 95 Nanluogu Lane with water. He had to rush to the Zhengyang Gate to have a look, otherwise he would not be relieved.

Fortunately, Yu Jie's house belongs to her after all. It is a very regular courtyard house with a front room facing the street. The quality of the houses is much better than that of the Zazayuan, so there are no rain leaks. The neighborhood is relatively good so far. The terrain is higher than that of Luogu Lane, South Fifth Road, and it is close to the moat, so the drainage is relatively smooth.

Because it was raining, it was inconvenient for Yu Jie to open the door, so he climbed over the wall and entered the courtyard.

There was a sudden knock on Wumen, which startled Yu Jie again, but before she could ask, Song Wu's deep voice came, "It's me, open the door."

In the room, Yu Jie couldn't help but patted her chest and complained in a low voice: "This person doesn't know what's wrong with him, he always climbs over the wall."

She opened the door and saw Song Wu holding a lot of food in his hands, and asked, "It's raining so hard, why are you running around?"

Song Wu said: "I wouldn't worry if I didn't see the condition of your house. Now it seems that the house is pretty good. Is there any leakage?"

Yu Jie looked happy and said, "No leaks. I usually clean the house. How is the situation outside?"

Song Wu said: "You see such a heavy rain, it has not become smaller now, I guess it will get worse soon. If there is water in this courtyard, just sit on the bed and don't get down, eat Everything is placed on the bed. Anything important must be placed high."
