Chen Daqiang shook his head, "I don't know him. He said he is from Xiaojia Town."
"The leader said he was a doctor from a certain drug store."
doctor?
From Xiaojia Town?
After hearing Chen Daqiang's statement, Chen Xiaobei couldn't help but frown.
Logically speaking, it is normal for doctors to go to the mountains to collect herbs.
But traveling dozens of miles from Xiaojia Town to collect herbs, and having more than a dozen people go up the mountain with great fanfare, is abnormal.
But thinking about it, it seems that the Liu family is also on the mountain. I wonder what interesting things will happen when these two groups meet.
At this moment, Chen Xiaobei frowned as he heard several muffled thunder sounds in the distance.
According to Cui Yong, it doesn't rain at this time of year. Why did it suddenly thunder?
It was indeed thundering, dark clouds were rising in the sky, and they were heading this way, and the village quickly became busy.
Chen Dachun and the others had already started drying their grains and were busy loading sacks. The villagers also showed their spirit of friendship and came to lend a hand whenever they could.
Naturally, Chen Xiaobei couldn't just sit idly by, so Chen Dachun took the food back into the house. Big raindrops started to fall.
There was only a wall between him and Dachun's house. Chen Xiaobei ran home and was already soaked. This shows how heavy the rain was.
Chen Xiaobei was secretly shocked. He had been here for so long and he had never seen such heavy rain all summer.
The person who was most unhappy about the rain was Chen Qiaoer. Because she couldn't go outside to play, she had to light an oil lamp and do her homework.
Cui Hongyu began to embroider busily under the lamp. The embroidery was a piece of thin water mandarin duck, which was almost finished. Seeing this scene, Chen Xiaobei suddenly remembered that a while ago, many people came to say they wanted to learn embroidery.
"Kuyu, weren't there a lot of people who wanted to learn embroidery from you a while ago? Are there still people coming now?"
After hearing his words, Cui Hongyu couldn't help but laugh.
"Well, let's embroider. How can I put it this way? You can come and learn after you have eaten and drank enough. Now the villagers are busy digging in the soil and don't have the time to learn if they really want to. What they said is just an excuse. "
Come to think of it, embroidery was not all the work of rich girls in ancient times, and it is said that they are full and warm, and they want to have lust. Now when the villagers have problems eating, who will learn embroidery?
Thinking about it, he had persuaded Cui Hongyu to accept two disciples a while ago, but now that he thought about it too quickly.
Before I knew it, it was past the second watch and it was time to go to bed. The rain outside seemed to be a little lighter.
Chen Xiaobei turned to look at Cui Hongyu, who was still busy, "Hongyu, let's sleep."
Hearing his words, Cui Hongyu blushed slightly and looked at Chen Qiaoer, who was already sleeping.
Seeing Cui Hongyu's action, Chen Xiaobei couldn't help but feel secretly happy.
At this moment, I understood what I was implying. Children can be taught.
Cui Hongyu stood up, held the oil lamp, and followed Chen Xiaobei back to their room.
As soon as he entered the room, Chen Xiaobei couldn't wait to get started, but was stopped by Cui Hongyu.
"Don't worry, husband, you have to wait until I put down the oil lamp."
Chen Xiaobei smiled and reached out to take the oil lamp, blew it out in one breath, then put it on the table and picked up Cui Hongyu across his waist.
It's gentle wind and drizzle outside, but it's stormy and rainy inside. The wind is a different kind of wind, and the rain is also a different kind of rain.
There are clouds in the room.
Clouds, rain.
…
Early the next morning, Chen Xiaobei was awakened by the sound of a dog barking.
Looking at Cui Hongyu sleeping in his arms through the faint light of dawn outside the window, Chen Xiaobei felt a little unable to hold back.
He put his hands around Cui Hongyu's neck, turned over and lifted Cui Hongyu onto his body.
Cui Hongyu, who was sleeping soundly, opened his eyes instantly.
When he saw Chen Xiaobei face to face, very close at hand, he closed his eyes shyly.
Chen Xiaobei's sinful hands were about to start to move, but Cui Hongyu quickly held him down, "It's dawn, Qiao'er will wake up soon."
Chen Xiaobei sighed.
well.
Seeing the disappointment on his face, Cui Hongyu could only comfort him softly, "Husband, don't be anxious, it will be fine when you move to a new home."
Yes, I moved to a new house and installed doors in every room. My room is at least two doors away from Chen Qiaoer's room. Then you will be happy.
At this time, the dog outside barked again, and Cui Hongyu rolled off Chen Xiaobei's body.
Chen Xiaobei secretly praised Cui Hongyu for being so smart. He knew that when he heard the dog barking, he would probably go out and take a look.
The rain stopped outside and the ground was very muddy. Chen Xiaobei came to the entrance of the courtyard and looked around. There were several people behind his house.
Upon closer inspection, it turned out to be the Liu family.
Several people supported each other, came slowly, and walked very slowly.
Chen Xiaobei saw this and hurriedly greeted him.
When these people saw Chen Xiaobei, they couldn't wait to say, "Xiaobei is long, someone is going up the mountain."
Of course Chen Xiaobei knew someone was going up the mountain. Chen Daqiang told him yesterday.
But the Liu family also cared so much, which was a bit beyond his expectation. Of course, what surprised him even more was the miserable appearance of several people.
"Why do you look like this?"
These people had sad smiles on their faces, "Oh, I came down the mountain all night to report the news on the orders of Ma's military advisor, but I got wet all the way. It's really too cold on the mountain."
"Is it raining on Qingniu Mountain too?" Chen Xiaobei asked subconsciously.
"Yeah, it's really heavy, and it's raining heavily."
After saying that, they left alone.
Chen Xiaobei thought of Cui Yong's words again. He was afraid that he was really a reverse prophet. He had just said that it would not rain, and then such a heavy rain slapped him in the face.
Chen Xiaobei strolled forward again. It was raining heavily and he had to go and see his vegetable plot and fish pond.
There's nothing wrong with the vegetable patch, it's just some water accumulation.
But when he came to the fish pond, Chen Xiaobei frowned.
It hadn't rained so hard for several months throughout the summer.
The fish pond also relies on river water to replenish the water level from time to time.
It rained so much today that part of the water from the mountains flowed into the river, and some flowed into the fish ponds along the winding ravines. The water level of the pond is now almost level with the shore.
Chen Xiaobei recalled what the Liu family had just said, and it was raining heavily on the mountain.
Now, only a little water flows to his fish pond, and most of it flows to the river, but he has to be fully prepared.
Chen Xiaobei walked along the path to the foot of Qingniu Mountain, passing through the checkpoint set up by the village protection team. Further forward, there was a section of the road with potholes.
The pothole is now full of water, flowing continuously into the river.
There is a fork from here, and part of the water winds down along a small ravine and flows into its own pond.
The key point is here.
There hasn't been any heavy rain in the past few months, so Chen Xiaobei has been ignoring this problem.
If a flood really breaks out on the mountain, especially if the deep ditch where I pick Houttuynia cordata really collects the flood, the momentum will be very scary.
Not to mention his own fish pond, Chen Xiaobei looked at his vegetable garden and his several old houses a mile away.
