Traveling through the ages with the hotel, being doted on by four brothers

Chapter 109 Check the situation
The captain looked at everyone and shook his head, "Captain Xiao, we are well prepared here, and everyone's life is pretty good. There is no need to move out, and there is no need to cause trouble for everyone."

When Xia Chan saw the army's rescue team coming, he quickly said to everyone, "Come over quickly and make ginger tea for the soldiers to warm their bodies. If they get sick, they won't be able to participate in the rescue activities. Also, cook some food for the soldiers so that they have the strength to save more people."

So many people came over to make ginger tea, then filled teacups with the tea and handed them over to the military comrades.

Xia Chan went up with the ginger tea and found out that it was Xiao Yunfan who led the team. She quickly handed the ginger tea to him. Xiao Yunfan took the ginger tea and looked at her with red eyes, as if he had not rested for a long time.

"Captain Xiao, do you have time to rest here for a while?" Xia Chan asked.

"Since your team doesn't need to evacuate the trapped people, we have to rush to the next place. We can't stay here for long." Xiao Yunfan said.

Xia Chan nodded and hurried downstairs, "Is there any food prepared? Bring it up quickly so that the soldiers can have a bite. They will have to go to other places for rescue soon."

Afterwards, everyone brought up hot food and invited the soldiers of the rescue team to eat. Although the food was not very good, it was not easy to have such food during this period.

The members of the rescue team took the food and began to wolf it down.

Xia Chan quietly stuffed some White Rabbit milk candies into Xiao Yunfan's pockets, filling both of his pockets. She also took out the raincoats she had sewn from her backpack and gave one to each of them.

"This is a raincoat I made myself with plastic cloth. It's very comfortable to wear. Remember to change your raincoats when they get torn." Xia Chan reminded.

The members of the rescue team thanked Xia Chan one after another. They didn't expect Xia Chan to have made such detailed preparations.

While Xiao Yunfan was returning his teacup, Xia Chan whispered something to him. Xiao Yunfan nodded to show that he understood.

When they were about to leave, Xiao Yunfan said to the villagers below, "Hello, team members. We found this cave during our training, and the things inside are ours. When the rain stops and you go home, just pack up your things and put them here. If there are any special circumstances, I hope you won't come to this cave, because we still come back here for training occasionally, and I hope you will cooperate."

The captain nodded and said, "Of course, of course. Few people from the village come here. Captain Xiao, don't worry."

The main reason is that it’s too far to get here. Who has the time to walk so long to get here?
The rescue resources themselves were limited, and the Yong'an Production Team did not occupy any rescue resources this time. They hurried to the next place. The rescue team made a short rest and then left without stopping.

No one had any objection to the captain's decision not to move. After all, it was still raining and the way down the mountain was difficult to walk on. Moreover, the resettlement site was definitely not as comfortable as the cave, so everyone decided not to move, so as not to cause trouble for the troops and not to share the already limited resources.

Finally, on the eleventh day of taking shelter from the rain, the rain gradually subsided until it stopped completely, and then a rainbow hung in the distant sky, and everyone laughed happily. The team leader arranged for strong laborers to go out to check the situation. After coming down from the mountain, they found that the water level in the village was still very high and could not go down for the time being, so they asked everyone to stay in the cave peacefully. It was useless to go down the mountain and they could not go home.

And even if you go home, you can't live in that house. You have to clean it up. Some families even have to build a shed first and then rebuild it!
Two days later, the water level receded a lot, so the team leader led the men down the mountain first, while the women, children and the elderly continued to stay in the cave. When they first came, every household brought 100 to 200 kilograms of food so they would not go hungry.

After a few more days, the water level receded, leaving the house and the floor covered with mud and sand.

Even if they went down the mountain at this time, there was no place to live, so the women, children and the elderly continued to stay in the cave, waiting for their men to come up and pick them up. Xia Chan had to drive the tractor back, so she went down the mountain too. She wanted to see the situation and see if the road from the town to the production team was clear. If the road was full of mud, she would have no way to drive the tractor back.

After coming down the mountain and entering the production team, the mud was quite deep. When I stepped down, my entire body below the knees was in the mud. It seemed that there was no way to get the tractor out for the time being.

When Xia Chan was about to turn around, she couldn't pull her feet out at all. She was about to sit down on the mud. When she was about to fall into the mud, suddenly a pair of arms reached out and pulled her up.

"Thank you..." Xia Chan was about to say thank you when her eyes suddenly widened, "Captain Xiao... Captain Xiao, why are you here?"

"I'm leading the team here to take charge of post-disaster reconstruction. You can come to me if you have anything." Xiao Yunfan carried Xia Chan to a place without mud, and then put her down. "Didn't I tell you to stay in the cave? Why did you run down here?"

"I just came to see what's going on." Xia Chan was so embarrassed that she took a few steps back. "Thank you, Captain Xiao, for what I just said. I'll go back first and not disturb you from working."

Since she couldn't go to the village, she decided to go back to her home. Her home was halfway up the mountain, so the silt shouldn't be that deep. Besides, her brothers were helping to clear the silt in the village, so she could use that as an opportunity to cheat.

After the rain stopped, although only women, old people and children were left in the cave, everyone had lived in the cave for several days and was bored, so they went out for a walk. However, the mountain road was muddy and their shoes got dirty after a few steps, so no one walked far away. The things planted by the summer cicadas on the mountain were naturally safe.

The summer cicada quietly went to the place where he planted watermelons, picked all the small watermelons and threw them on the ground to use them as fertilizer. After being eroded by rain for so many days, the watermelons would not taste good and could not be eaten even if they grew bigger, so it was better to pick them.

Anyway, as long as the watermelon seedlings are not dead, they will produce new watermelons.

Xia Chan returned to her home and found that part of the courtyard wall had been washed away, but there was no problem with the house as a whole. She was very happy. As long as the courtyard wall was repaired, it wouldn't cost much money.

Because of the advantage of the high terrain, although there was silt in the yard, there was no silt at the door of the house, that is, the water did not flood the house, but just passed through the yard. Xia Chan quickly took out a shovel from the yard and cleared a path from the yard gate to the door of the house, and then returned home. Fortunately, the roof was not pierced by the rain and the house was not too dirty.
