Chapter 143
Perhaps because of the thunderstorm, both of them got up late. When they went out to see, the rainwater sprayed from the patio onto the corridor, and they were all wet. However, the water in the patio hadn't been discharged, and more than half of it had accumulated.Opening the gate, the whole village was almost covered in white rain, the river had already swelled, and a few people in straw coir raincoats were faintly seen walking back and forth.

The ditches in front of and behind the house were filled with turbid rainwater, from high to low, and finally gathered into the river. The whole river looked like muddy water, with rotten logs floating on it. Baskets and so on, and even some dead chickens floating up and down.

"Ma'am, what are you looking at?" Hong Hao'an made breakfast, checked the condition of the chicken shed, and made sure that there was no water or danger of collapse, so he came to see what Puhuang was looking at, and there was no movement for so long.

"It's raining too much, and I don't know when it will stop?" Puhuang doesn't like the continuous rain for ten days and a half months, it will make her feel gloomy, and feel that the whole body is going to be moldy. Before the spring rain It was like this when it was long, Hong Haoan understood this very well.

"By the way, have you mentioned to Lizheng and the county magistrate not to let people pick up dead animals and eat them?" This is what Puhuang thought when he saw the dead animals in the river just now. And eat less meat, who would not be happy to pick it up for nothing?
Hong Hao'an thought for a while, but he didn't seem to mention this point, "That's not true, the lady thinks it's wrong?"

"I don't know how many dirty things are brought into the water. Where can the dead things be clean? They won't cause disease, and they won't lose their lives for those greedy!" Pu Huang knew that even if the notification went on, some people would not care "It's better to boil the water to drink, but don't drink cold water, I see that the well is muddy."

"Miss, don't worry about this, let's eat first, and then I'll go to Lizheng to see the situation." Hong Haoan held Puhuang's hand and walked to the kitchen. They may not be so kind, but they will not ignore the overall situation. For such a large-scale natural disaster, we should do more if we can.

When Hong Haoan went to look for Lizheng, Puhuang also panted for breath and went to look for Wang Shi in a coir raincoat. The oil-paper umbrella was useless even with the heavy wind and rain.When Wang let Puhuang into the house, she saw that she put several cages with rabbits in the hall, many of them were soaked, and there were a few baskets of wet vegetable leaves and weeds beside her, and she was about to dry them. The water is given to the rabbit to eat.

"Daughter-in-law Hao'an, have you eaten yet? It was thundering and raining last night. Is there any problem with your family?"

Puhuang helped Wang spread out the vegetable leaves and weeds in the basket, and replied: "It's nothing, Auntie."

"My house was repaired the year before last, and it is solid, but the rabbit shed is leaking, so I had to move all of them here, and I had to endure the smell for a few days, otherwise all the rabbits would die and I would lose money." It's gone." Mrs. Wang grabbed a few wet rabbits, wiped them with a cloth towel, and put them in a cage next to a brazier.

"Well, if Auntie has something to do, just call me, and I'll go to Sister-in-law Chen's house to have a look."

"It's okay, there's your uncle. The Xiucai family has to go and see. The lady of the Xiucai has a big belly. I'm so busy that I'm dizzy. You can go and have a look." Wang patted her head, feeling that she was really busy. Dizzy and forgot about these.

"Auntie is busy, I'll go first." Saying goodbye to Mrs. Wang, Puhuang went to Chen Xiucai's house. The house was fine, but there was a puff of smoke in the kitchen. Chen Xiucai was busy inside. Seeing Puhuang coming over, he felt a little embarrassed .

Puhuang asked about Jiao's situation, and learned that she was lying on the bed. When she went in, she was half leaning on the bed, sewing a small dress in her hand. Seeing Puhuang coming in, she adjusted her position and greeted with a smile: " Puhuang, why is it raining so much?"

"It's raining too much, I'll come over here to see the situation." Pu Huang sat down on the chair beside the bed, picked up a small dress in the basket, and looked at it. The stitching is very good and the fabric is also very soft. Sure enough, he really put his heart into it, "Have you had breakfast yet?"

"No, my husband is cooking, and I suddenly want to eat pancakes, but he won't let me do it." Jiao Shi was a little embarrassed, but the corners of her mouth curled up to reveal her happiness.

After a few words with Jiao Shi, Pu Huang went to the kitchen, "Chen Xiucai, this firewood is wet, let me bring some over there and burn it." The thick smoke that filled the room was obviously dry firewood caused.

Chen Xiucai also understood, and immediately nodded, "Thank you very much, I didn't expect that the haystack would fall down, and the firewood would not be able to burn."

Maoyu sent two bundles of firewood to Chen Xiucai's house, and then went to Widow Qiu's house to check, and there was nothing serious. At this time, Hong Haoan also came back, and the couple sat and talked about the situation in the village. The people in the house were all drenched in the middle of the night, and one house collapsed. Fortunately, there were no casualties.

Lizheng and the elders of the clan were arranged to go to the ancestral hall. It's not that no one likes the old house of the Hong family, but now this house belongs to Hong Haobao's son, and it is temporarily under the management of Hong Haocheng. No one else can be the master. There is no need to let it go, of course, there is no need to tell Pu Huang about these things.

It rained for five days at a time, and it stopped on the sixth day. Behind the thick clouds, there was sunlight shining through, and there was a faint tendency to clear up.In such a heavy rain, some people who didn't dry the rice were afraid of germination, so they had to make big bamboo plaques and spread them out, or they found a way to dry them with fire, anyway, the taste would be much worse in the future.

In the past few days, they have nothing to do. Pu Huang took clothes to make, repaired and changed what needed to be done, and learned how to put on shoes. They can't let others do it for them.As for Hong Haoan, he is researching others, mainly the salted duck eggs mentioned by Puhuang. There are many people who raise ducks here. Duck eggs are not more expensive than chicken eggs. Spring City is promising, it's an exclusive secret recipe.

What he is going to do is not preserved eggs, it is also pickled, but the ingredients are different. The main ingredients are herbs and spices. The travel book did not mention this aspect, but he plans to change it from the formula of dried fish. Try it, if you succeed, you will earn a lot of money.

 Happy Mid-Autumn Festival everyone!Have you eaten mooncakes and admired the moon tree?I went back to my hometown, it was very windy, and there was no internet. I didn’t pay for the promised additions. I have to wait until I go back to the city...
