Chapter 252 Despair After the Rain

Then a few smaller bolts of lightning struck down, followed by rumbling thunder that shook the ground like a roaring lion.

At the same time, the sounds of chickens flying and dogs barking rang in my ears, and even the donkey in the shed barked uncomfortably, and I could faintly hear bursts of crying, including children and adults.

Fortunately, the wind stopped quickly, but then came the pouring rain, and the whole night sky seemed to be covered with rain curtains, and it was impossible to see clearly what was ten feet away.

And soon because of the temperature difference, layers of mist rose up, which looked beautiful, but even Qin Wenyao, who didn't know much about the suffering in the world, felt heavy.

Fortunately, it was dawn in less than a quarter of an hour, and the rain also subsided, but looking at the stagnant water in the courtyard that could not flow out, one could imagine how heavy the rain was this time.

"Miao, I'm afraid we won't be able to grow vegetables this year." Seeing this, He Rong sighed.

"It's okay, it's raining so hard, I think the water will pass away soon, and it will be a big deal to plant again after the sky clears." He Miao replied with a dry smile.

It would be fine if the sky cleared after the rain, but if the light rain lasted long enough to overcast the ground, it would really be a possibility.

But what she is most worried about now is the meat in the pot. It is impossible to sell it in this weather, and she doesn't know if the remaining saltpeter can keep the meat.

Maybe God sensed her anxiety, the rain finally stopped within half an hour, and even the sun came out.

But no one can be happy, because the wind and rain have already destroyed everything that can be damaged.

"Hey." He Rong sighed, seeing that the accumulated water in the courtyard had gone down a lot, she turned her head to He Miao and said, "You should watch the fire at home, I'll go to the field to see if there is any water, it must be released, especially for flowers. There should be no stagnant water in the raw ground, and the peanuts will either rot in the ground or germinate directly.

He Miao originally wanted to persuade her to wait a little longer, but seeing someone rushing to the field with farm tools on the street, she could only say, "I'll go with you."

"Alright, the two of you can let go quickly." He Rong hesitated for a moment but agreed.

Afterwards, He Miao and Qin Wenyao exchanged a few words, and then hurried to the field with He Rong, one with a hoe and the other with a shovel.

After arriving on the street, I realized that there was still a lot of water, so I had to walk along the roots of the houses on both sides, and there were a lot of bricks and stones.

As a result, people slowly moved out of the village along two lines, gradually forming two long queues.

However, people walked into the ground one by one in a hurry, and no one was in the mood to study this.

All of a sudden, a woman in front of her, with a sad face, stretched her thighs and cried, "Wow, how can I live this day, how can I live this day."

Then someone shouted: "It's all gone, all the millet and sorghum I planted are gone."

"This day will not pass."

"God, this is killing people."

"My millet, my sorghum."

…………

As more people left the village, there were more and more screams and cries.

When He Miao left the village, he finally understood why they had such a big reaction.

Because all the crops, no matter how high or low, have now become a green carpet, but the carpet is uneven.

Moreover, the water in the ground is full, and it looks like a paddy field from a distance. No wonder everyone is crying and wiping their tears.
