Although it is a common saying that the weather is unpredictable, people always encounter it. Just when Li Youran was waiting for the first batch of vegetables to be produced at the base, a heavy rain delayed his plan.
At noon that day, it suddenly began to rain under a dark cloudy sky. The rumbling thunder was accompanied by strong winds, which caused the poplar trees on the roadside to stagger. The merchants and residents of Shigu Lane hurriedly closed their doors and windows, and pedestrians on the street
They also hid in nearby shops to take shelter from the rain.
The raindrops became more and more dense, making the glass windows crackle.
Li Youran had just had lunch and was resting in the room. When he saw the rain, he didn't pay much attention at first. He got up and closed the window, then lay back down. He even thought that it was God who was helping to water the vegetable field, and Li Shuanzhu would be less troublesome.
Already.
But as the tapping sound on the window got louder and louder, he began to feel something was wrong. It was beyond the ordinary noise of rain.
He ran to the window sill and took a look, and sure enough, there were a large number of white little things dancing on the table outside.
The particles are as big as nose beans, it’s hail!
But in this situation, people are helpless and can only secretly pray that the rain will not be too heavy, otherwise the glass shop will be overwhelmed with business tomorrow.
Fortunately, half an hour later, the sound of tapping on the glass window gradually became less intense, and the wind also decreased.
Li Youran breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed that the hailstorm had passed, and the glass of the bun shop and the fish pond were safe.
The rain gradually stopped and he opened the window. The fresh and moist wind after the rain blew into the room, making him feel refreshed.
Summer is like this, there are more showers, and they come and go quickly.
At this time, Uncle Qi came to him suddenly and brought shocking news. He said that he had just watched TV and the latest report was that hailstorms occurred in many places in the south and west suburbs of the city, destroying many facilities and injuring people.
South of the city? Trouble, isn’t that where the vegetable plot of Tonghezi Village is located?
Li Youran suddenly became anxious and quickly dialed Li Shuanzhu's number on his mobile phone.
The phone rang for a while before the call was answered.
"Brother Shuan Zhu, is it hailing over there? Is it serious?" Li Youran asked quickly.
"After rain, all three acres of cabbage were destroyed. It's all up to me." On the phone, Li Shuanzhu took a breath and said sadly.
"How are you? Is everything okay?" Li Youran asked, this is the most important thing.
"Everyone is fine, everything is fine." Li Shuanzhu said calmly.
"Brother Shuan Zhu, don't worry, I'll go over and take a look right away."
Li Youran couldn't sit still after hearing this, hung up the phone and walked out.
Uncle Qi followed behind and asked if he wanted to accompany him. Li Youran shook his head and asked Uncle Qi to concentrate on taking care of the store. He could just go and take a look alone.
When he came to the backyard, he started the car and the clerk opened the door. Li Youran drove out and headed south of the city.
Looking along the way, there seemed to be no problem within the city. As the car drove out of the city, we saw that the buildings in the suburbs gradually showed signs of hail damage.
The dark windows, shards of glass, broken tiles, crooked shrubs, and broken branches all showed the tragedy of the past.
The car came to the road near the vegetable base. Li Youran parked the car and rushed to the field in three steps and two steps.
From a distance, I saw Li Shuanzhu and his people packing things there.
The vegetable field was destroyed, and the fresh cabbage was smashed into a mess. There were still some hailstones left in the field, the largest of which was visually as big as a small walnut.
Arriving closer, Li Shuanzhu and others stopped what they were doing and turned their attention to Li Youran, who was approaching.
Li Shuanzhu was wearing a poncho, but he was still soaked, his face was ashen, and there was a large patch of dirt on his cheek.
Others were also in a very embarrassing condition, and some even had a bump on their forehead, but it didn't seem serious.
"Brother Shuan Zhu, you are injured, is it serious?" Li Youran asked quickly.
"It's okay, just a little injury. It happened so suddenly, I already felt something was wrong, but Shuan Zhu shook his head and sighed.
Shunzi wiped some water from her face, walked up to Li Youran and told Li Youran what happened just now.
They had just finished eating at noon when it suddenly started raining, and then small hailstones appeared, as big as grains of rice. Li Shuanzhu felt something was wrong and called all the people to rush into the fields carrying the tarpaulins in stock. However, the hailstones became heavier and heavier, and so on.
It was too late for them to reach the vegetable field.
Li Shuanzhu led them to unroll the tarpaulin and set it up in the seedling field as soon as possible, so that the cabbage field could no longer be taken care of. The hail became more and more fierce, making everyone miserable. Later, it turned out that there was no other way, so the group had to hide under a tree on the roadside.
Everyone worked together to hold up a tarpaulin to block the situation, so there were no more injured people.
After the hailstorm, the cabbage in the field was basically destroyed, but most of the rapeseed and leek seedlings in the nursery fields were still preserved.
In addition, after inspection just now, there is nothing serious about the drip irrigation equipment, except that some of the pipes laid are smashed and crooked.
"Brother Shuan Zhu, the hail is so big, why bother with the vegetable fields? It's not worth it to hurt so many people."
Li Youran complained.
"Oh, I didn't expect it to be so evil. This kind of situation was rare in the past. It's really big if the hailstone can be as big as a soybean." Li Shuanzhu casually picked up a large hailstone, looked at it, and threw it far away.
"Forget it, just replant the vegetables if they get smashed. Anyway, our vegetables grow quickly, so it doesn't matter.
Don't do anything today, go back and make a pot of brown sugar and ginger soup, and rest after drinking it." Li Youran said in a commanding tone.
Li Shuanzhu nodded, without saying anything else, and led the others to pack up the things in the field, and then came to the highway together. Everyone squeezed in and got into the car.
Li Youran activated Q5 and led several of them into the village and back to their residence.
Tonghezi Village was also hit by the disaster. Glass fragments, bricks and tiles were scattered all over the ground, but the villagers did not panic and were divided into groups to clean up and make emergency repairs.
The group looks well organized and well-trained. Maybe this is one of the reasons why the village is so developed. Li Youran thought.
Li Shuanzhu and others returned to the rental house and divided the work. Those who applied medicinal oil, those who washed clothes, those who boiled water to make ginger soup, and those who cleaned things began to work separately.
Several pieces of window glass in the rental house were also smashed by the hail, but this will have to be replaced by the landlord.
Li Youran saw that he could not help much, so he told them to have a good rest today and then drive back to the city.
When passing by the vegetable field, he stopped the car and looked at the messy situation in the field through the glass. He couldn't help but sigh. It seems that vegetable greenhouses still have to be built. Their function is not just as simple as insulation. Today
This hailstorm is a lesson.
The wind and sunshine in the Emerald Space are beautiful all year round, so no one needs to worry about it. The real world is really incomparable. Floods, snow disasters, wind disasters, hail disasters, plus mudslides, droughts, etc., natural disasters occur frequently and are difficult to prevent.
Therefore, most of the things farmers grow in the fields have to depend on God’s face to eat, which is really not easy.!
