Chapter 36
It was getting dark gradually, but the heavy rain did not stop. After the family had dinner, the antenna tied to a long bamboo pole along the outer wall was broken by the wind at some point, so In the evening, wanting to watch TV undoubtedly became wishful thinking, so the family went to bed early.

Oriental Pearl was still thinking about the group of crows that appeared inexplicably, thinking that such a heavy rain would bring great losses to the villagers even if no one died, so she didn't sleep all night, and finally fell asleep at dawn. However, he was woken up by the voices of his father Dongfang Chu and his mother Yang Xiufang.

"Old man, I went out to have a look just now, and I heard people say that my aunt was crushed to death by a wall that was just built next door to Dequan Fifth Gong's house."

"I said, old lady, don't worry about it, go cook your sweet potatoes, or when Xiao Xuanzi wakes up and finds that there is nothing to eat, won't he cry again?"

Dongfang Chu didn't hear what Yang Xiufang said clearly, thinking that she was gossiping about some unimportant things early in the morning.

"No, old man, it is said that the fourth aunt died in a terrible way." Yang Xiufang didn't go into the kitchen immediately, but planned to finish what she was holding back in her heart.

"Old lady, look at your babbling, talk and fart as soon as you have something to say, don't say half and keep half."

"The fourth aunt usually sleeps with her little grandson Xizi, but last night it was strange. She took a clean bath and put on a new year's dress that her daughter bought for her when she was in Zhencheng. The gray and white floral clothes that I am willing to wear during the festival,
Tell Xiao Xizi not to sleep with her tonight, but in the end she was crushed to death, she seems to have a premonition about this, don't you think it's very evil? "

"There is such a thing?" Although Dongfang Chu has lived for more than 50 years, he has to admit that this is indeed unimaginable.

Dongfang Canxuan, who was sleeping late, was obviously also frightened, only heard the creaking sound of the door opening, and he appeared in front of everyone with a thin sheet on his head, dripping with cold sweat, obviously frightened .

"Hey, hey, what are you doing?" Dongfang Chu couldn't see it, and roared, "You are a man and an old dog, why are you so scared?"

Dongfang Canxuan leaned against his mother, Yang Xiufang, with a white face, looked at the sky that was still thundering and lightning, and said tremblingly: "Whoever asked you to talk about it, they just think it's scary!"

Dongfang Chu ignored this disgraceful son. While smoking the hookah in his hand, he looked up at the heavy rain that had been falling all the time. His dark face softened, and he sighed heavily. Changed topic:

"The seedlings that just went down to the fields in the second spring seem to have been ruined again."

In the rural areas of the south, two springs are cultivated in a year. The time for sowing in the first spring is about shortly after the beginning of spring. Soon after the seedlings grow up, they are moved to the rice fields, which is called transplanting, and then after many times of fertilization and weeding. Harvesting, killing insects, etc., can be harvested in about June. If the weather is good, then there will be a good harvest that year, otherwise it will be a waste of work.

The sowing work of the second spring had to start as early as the harvest of the first spring rice, otherwise the farming time would be missed by around October.

Seeing this heavy rain, it kept falling, and he didn't know when it would stop, so Dongfang Chu was worried.

The Oriental Pearl in the room obviously couldn't fall asleep when she heard her parents talk about the fourth aunt, that is, according to her seniority, she should be called the fourth wife. The crow that came here, if it wasn't for such a heavy rain, then she would have gone out to see what happened a long time ago.
