After some discussion, the idea was naturally settled. It was a good plan, but unexpectedly it started to rain outside in the middle of the night.
At first, everyone didn't pay much attention to the rain. They were supposed to sleep and play. But who knew that the rain was getting heavier and heavier, making the people in the house so noisy that they couldn't sleep at all. When they opened the door again, they found out that this time
The amount of rain is no less than that of the last flood. Naturally, there is no need to sleep next time. After all, so many people died without precautions last time. Isn’t this a lesson? No one wants to die, so naturally they have to stay.
People kept vigil.
Every household immediately sent people to keep vigil at night. Fortunately, every household kept vigil at night. After a while, some homes had leaks, but it was raining heavily outside and the leaks could not be repaired.
, we could only wake up the sleeping family members, and the whole family worked together to get things, fetch water, and pour water. This busy night was over.
Because of Jingchen, the roof of the Wen family has been repaired several times, and the unstable mud bricks on the wall have also been reinforced with a layer when they have time, so this amount of rain has not really affected them.
There was no impact on the house, but the sound of the rain was really too loud. Even if the house was fine, they still couldn't sleep.
But whether or not to sleep is no longer the point. Looking at the heavy rain outside, everyone's heart is twitching. After all, if this kind of rain rains again for half a month, I really don't know how many people will die in the village.
Perhaps it was God's mercy. Although the rain was heavy that night, it gradually lightened up at noon the next day. It was not until dinner that the rain stopped completely.
However, the rain this time was accompanied by coldness. When the rain stopped, I stood outside and felt bitingly cold when the breeze blew. Wenhou was shivering from the cold. He complained: "It's too cold today.
I remember it wasn’t that cold at this time last year, it just rained. Why does it feel better than yesterday when it was colder?”
"It has indeed dropped a lot. We were still a little warm wearing cotton-padded clothes the other day, but today we are still a little cold." But how could they remember last year's events in such detail? Besides, "Last year's clothes were so thin. Since autumn,
It's been so cold that I haven't even warmed up for a day. How can this compare? Let's go to Aunt Wang's house first, otherwise Aunt Wang won't be able to make these clothes for a few days."
The two brothers were about to go to Mrs. Wang's house to deliver fabrics. They felt cold so they chatted at the gate of the courtyard. But Wen Yu's words were correct. The brothers had worn and changed their old clothes.
Yes, it's not warm at all, but in the countryside, everyone is the same, they carry it like this when it's cold. Anyway, some people here have frostbite, but no one froze to death, so that's fine.
The two brothers sent the fabric to Aunt Wang, exchanged a few words and then returned home.
Just when the two of them were going to clean up yesterday's pig water, Wen Jun from the village chief's family hurried over. Seeing that there was no one around, he whispered to the two of them: "Brother Wenhou, Brother Wen Yu, my father asked you to come over and take care of the pigs."
Xin'er also brought her along, saying that something happened."
Seeing Wen Jun's serious look, the two brothers looked at each other, good guys, can't they find out who it is so quickly? Is the village chief already so efficient in his work?
Wen Yu did not dare to delay and immediately entered the house. Seeing that everyone at home was busy, he took Wenxin out of the house without any explanation, and the four of them went to the village chief's house.
Wen Xin didn't say anything along the way, but when she looked at Wen Jun, she almost guessed what was going on.
A group of four people came to the village chief's house. Wen Jun led the three Wen family members to the room where the village chief's office was. After the three brothers entered, Wen Jun obediently closed the door. As for the people, they must have stayed.
, Wen Jun was really curious about this mysterious thing, but his father refused to let him know. He scratched his head when he thought about this half-understanding thing. However, when he crawled by the door, he was caught by the village chief's wife not long after.
He was carried out by his ears.
The village chief's wife said funnyly: "What's the matter with you? Why do you have so many things to do, and you still have to crawl at the door to listen."
"Aren't I worried that the Wen family will harm Brother Yang again? Brother Yang is so kind."
The village chief's wife heard the village chief mention it in private and knew that Wen Jun had a good heart, so she also mentioned a few words, "These children are good and will not wrongly accuse you, Brother Yang. Don't worry, go."
, go pick some mushrooms for me. There must be no shortage of mushrooms after the rain. You won’t be allowed to take them down until the basket is full.”
After being assigned a task, Wen Jun naturally couldn't stay here any longer. He turned around and left reluctantly.
But when the three siblings entered the room, they not only saw the village chief and Yang Jin in the room, but also saw Uncle Qian huddled in the corner.
Yes, he was the uncle of the aunt's family who bought her prescriptions with money that she hated, and later asked her to get some of the prescription money back, but why is he here?
Wen Xin asked unconsciously: "Uncle Village Chief, why did you call us here? Why is Uncle Qian here too?"
The village chief glared at Uncle Qian, then looked at the Wen brothers and sisters, sighed, rolled his sleeves and turned aside to think about this matter... He really didn't know how to speak.
Wen Xin, who had not thought about that at first, suddenly became active after seeing the village chief's actions. She glanced at the village chief several times, and then in the direction of Uncle Qian several times, just like that.
After a few glances, my jaw almost dropped in shock.
Wen Yu didn't get over it for a while. Seeing Wen Wen so funny, she even raised her hand to take her chin back. But when the chin was restored, Wen Yu got over it, with a look of disbelief on her face.
Asked: "Village Chief, could it be..."
The village chief didn't speak, and his face was obviously even worse than before. Yang Jin, who had been silent all the time, nodded to them, thinking, this is someone they have found.
Unsurprisingly, the child in Wen Wan's belly is Uncle Qian's, but how come it was found out so quickly? Could it be a mistake? After all, Uncle Qian's wife just died and he can marry another one to fill the house.
.
However, it didn't happen. When Yang Jin saw that the village chief didn't speak, he explained directly: "There is a security team in the village, and each household takes turns sending people out to patrol the village at night. There are no adults in your family, so there is no arrangement for your family, but this case
You should also know this, Uncle Qian was on duty that day."
Uncle Qian was not the only one on duty that day. After all, their Shangliang Village was a big village, and it was not enough for one person to be on duty, so they took advantage of the rain at noon to call in the people who were working that day one by one to come over and ask questions. Of course, they must be making insinuations.
Yes, the purpose is not obvious, and people who don't know about it will naturally not be able to ask what is going on. But who gave Uncle Qian a scare? After being asked a few questions, he did everything, and Uncle Qian also said, "Wenwan that night
After seeing his face clearly, he knew that the person was him, so he was cautious for a while. Seeing that nothing was wrong, he became more courageous recently. But who would have thought that he was just so courageous, and he soon came looking for him.
