Chapter 185 Heavy Rain



Chapter 185 Heavy Rain

"How else can we survive? Fight to the death with the villagers?" Fu Biao looked desperate. If he could survive, he would. If not, he could just give them a beating.

"Don't talk about fighting and killing all the time. They are all ordinary people. You have been a soldier at least. Don't you know what it means to love the people like your own children?" Xiong Lijin rolled his eyes.

"Can you use idioms?" Fu Biao sneered at him. "Of course I know I should care for the people, but if someone wants to ride on my head and act wildly, can't I teach him a lesson? If a son is not well educated, it is the fault of the father!"

"Come on, you two have returned all the books you've read over the past few years to the teacher, right?" Chen Jinghan was even more speechless, "So are we still going to discuss this?"

"How about I go back to the town and find some comrades and their friends to come over to our place as guests? Let those old guys see that we are not single and don't think they can bully us just because we are small in number." Fu Biao adjusted his attitude and suggested.

"Sure, I'll get some friends over too." Xiong Lijin nodded.

After knowing that they are not without friends to help them, the villagers will probably have some concerns.

Chen Jinghan thought it was feasible, but what else?

Wu Aiqing also frowned and thought.

Four men are worried together, and it seems that apart from this, the only people they can rely on are themselves?

The sound of rain outside was getting heavier. The few people couldn't come up with anything to discuss, so they went back to their rooms to rest.

At the hospital, Xue Li was already beginning to feel drowsy.

Jiang Yu was leaning against the wall, still flipping through his textbook.

At about 9 o'clock, the nurse came over to check on the two injured patients. After confirming that there was no problem, she told Jiang Yu to rest early, then closed the door and left.

After Jiang Yu finished taking notes, he took the basin and went out to wash up.

When she came back, the other three people in the ward were already asleep.

After washing up, Jiang Yu went to the duty room to ask the nurse. After getting permission, she slept on the empty bed in the middle.

A good night's sleep.

The next day, it was still raining heavily outside.

Around 7 o'clock and approaching 8 o'clock, the steel plant opposite became busy.

Jiang Yu put down the Chinese textbook in his hand, looked at Xue Li who was woken up, and asked her if she wanted to wash up and get up?

"I need to go to the bathroom." Xue Li said.

Jiang Yu nodded, picked up the person and took him to the toilet.

Xue Li hugged Jiang Yu's neck, and sighed in his heart that sisters are still powerful. It's so convenient for a girl to hug another girl~

After washing up, Jiang Yu went to buy breakfast for Xue Li.

She went to the state-owned restaurant again, wanting to see what was available today, and preferably also to find out about the dishes for lunch and dinner.

Xue Li held the enamel cup and drank water in small sips.

The grandmother inside also got up, cleaned up herself, and then wiped her granddaughter's face and hands.

The little girl called her grandma sweetly, and the grandmother and granddaughter whispered a few words to each other.

The sudden drop in temperature brought a chill. After covering her granddaughter with a blanket, the grandmother said to Xue Li, "Xue Zhiqing, please help me look after Er Ni'er for a while. I'm going to get breakfast."

"Okay." Xue Li nodded in agreement.

There was tofu pudding in the state-owned restaurant today. Jiang Yu drank a bowl of the salty one himself, brought one for Xue Li, and bought a white flour bun to take away.

At 9 o'clock, the doctor came to make his rounds.

The grandmother asked the doctor about discharge from the hospital.

After examining her granddaughter, the doctor advised her to wait two more days to see the extent of the injury.

Although the grandmother felt sorry for the money, she was not a cruel person. After all, her granddaughter's health was more important, so she had to follow the doctor's advice and continue to live there. Besides, in this weather, the daughter-in-law couldn't come to pick her up.

Probably because of the rainy day, not many people came to the hospital.

Chen Jinghan originally wanted to come to the hospital to replace Jiang Yu, but Wu Aiqing persuaded him to rest for another day, "Jiang Yu is a woman, and it will be more convenient for her to take care of Xue Li. You haven't had a good rest these two days, so don't rush to the hospital."

Chen Jinghan was a little hesitant when she thought about the awkwardness of the past two days.

"It's troublesome to go back and forth in such heavy rain." Xiong Lijin also advised him.

Although he was worried about Xue Li, he was actually in the hospital taking care of him and could not help as much as Jiang Yu.

In the end, the sudden heavy rain became the biggest obstacle blocking Chen Jinghan.

"It's raining so heavily." Fu Biao had never seen such heavy rain in his life. It was like a waterfall, so scary.

Wu Aiqing was moving a drying rack and he was also shocked by the heavy rain today.

The educated youth in the front yard still went out in the heavy rain.

Xiong Lijin came out with a tarp, ready to waterproof Jiang Yu and the others' firewood, "Is it really okay with such heavy rain?"

"I don't know, but everything should be fine here, right?" Chen Jinghan frowned, a little worried.

The terrain of the construction team is indeed not high, and there are mountains all around, but there are no large reservoirs nearby, so there will never be floods.

Although there is no danger of flooding, problems such as landslides and mud-rock flow still exist, but they have not happened so far.

Several people did not forget to climb onto the roof to check the situation, but they had checked it at the beginning of spring and there was no leakage in the house.

Wu Aiqing put on his hat and looked outside the windows of the two girls' rooms. He felt relieved only after making sure that they were both closed.

"It's a good thing you didn't go to town to take over Jiang Yu's shift, otherwise it would be really dangerous for her to ride her bike back in such heavy rain." Xiong Lijin looked at the falling rain. He couldn't see how heavy it was on the opposite side. It was really scary.

The muddy road was so terrible at that time that you might sink into it if you stepped on it.

Chen Jinghan nodded in agreement.

At the hospital, Xue Li looked at the increasingly heavy rain and asked Jiang Yu, "Do you think they will still rush to harvest today?"

"I don't know. But the possibility is very high." Food is the lifeblood of farmers.

The grandmother, who was lying in a separate bed, heard their conversation and became even more worried about the situation in the village.

Not to mention the farmers in the village, even the doctors and nurses in the hospital are worried.

"We haven't seen such heavy rain in many years. We don't know what's going on in those places that are prone to landslides. Please don't let anything happen." A doctor passing by said to the people around him.

Xue Li and Jiang Yu looked at each other. It was the first time for them to know that there was a landslide here.

But there is indeed something metaphysical about what the doctor says.

In the afternoon, the sound of a tractor was heard outside the hospital, and soon the quiet lobby became noisy.

Something really happened, although it was not a landslide.

And it’s a construction team.

There are small mountains in the northwest and north of the construction team, and plains and fields in the east and south.

The accident happened to the villagers of the fourth team. They went up the mountain to collect firewood and accidentally stepped on empty air and fell into a trap.

The heavy rains over the past few days had made the soil much softer, and the wooden stick that was originally inserted outside the trap as a warning also fell down as the soil became loose.

The villager who fell broke his calf bone and the whole bone stuck out.

Zhuang Shouren and the captain of the fourth team sent the injured to the hospital, and several people from the same village in the inpatient building also hurried down to see if there was anyone who needed help.
