Chapter 110 Persuasion to leave the village

"Boom——"

Several more thunders sounded.

The rain became more and more violent, and among the lightning and thunder, thunder light illuminated the village one after another.

The roads in the village are now full of deep and shallow mud puddles. "Pah!" There are rapid footsteps stepping into the mud puddles, and mud particles splash and wet the trouser legs that are already covered with muddy water.

Cheng Lin braved the rain and banged on the wooden door, shouting: "Uncle Chen, are you there?"

After a while, someone inside responded, put on his coat and walked out and opened the door. When he saw Cheng Lin, he was stunned and said, "It's raining so hard. Why did you run out instead of staying at home? Did something happen at home?"

?”

"Nothing happened, Uncle Chen. The village chief asked me to tell you to prepare to take refuge in the mountains tomorrow. You will stay there for several days this time."

"Escape?" Uncle Chen's face changed slightly, and he quickly asked: "What's going on with Erlang? Why are you taking refuge?"

"It's because the water in the river has overflowed."

"Uncle Chen, if you believe the village chief, quickly collect all the things at home and hide them in the cellar. Prepare more food. We will go to a high place to hide for a while tomorrow."

Cheng Lin didn't explain much. After informing the family, he turned around and ran next door to continue knocking on the door.

The terrain of Xiaohe Village is low, and the village is built near the water. Therefore, during the rainy season, rising water would flood into the village before, but the village chief has never used this reason to ask the villagers to evacuate.

"Are you sick?"

"It's been a long time since it rained in the village. If my house can be washed away by just a little water, why should I seek refuge?"

"I'm happy to stay in the village. Why would I go out in such a heavy rain? My brain is as sick as yours. You should go quickly and don't delay my family's meal. My family didn't cook your meal!"

"That Zhang Wei is really good. He has been the village chief for a long time and given him what he can do!"



Someone listened to Cheng Lin's words.

But there were always people who didn't take his words seriously. No matter how bad he said, those people didn't believe him, so they closed the door with a bang, and the cursing voices inside couldn't even block the sound of the rain.

Cheng Lin was extremely anxious, but he couldn't spend too much time with his family.

I had no choice but to continue knocking on the door of the next house. There were still many people who believed in the judgment of the village chief Zhang Wei and decided to take refuge in the mountains with them early tomorrow morning. Unknowingly, they arrived at Lao Cheng's house.

"Father, mother, brother, are you at home? I have something to tell you. Please open the door."

"Dad! Mom!"

Cheng Lin was soaked to the skin, and his wet hair stuck to his face. He could hardly open his eyes and was still banging on the door anxiously.

But after taking photos for quite a while, no one responded.

The old Cheng family.

They were all gathering around the kitchen to eat at the moment, but the atmosphere was not harmonious.

Mrs. Qian now sees that Mrs. Zhou's nose is neither nose nor eyes, and even when eating, she has to sit as far away from her as she can't see her. Mrs. Zhou just pretends that she doesn't exist and lowers her head to eat while holding in her sulk.

After Cheng Lin's voice came from outside the door, everyone couldn't help but be stunned for a moment.

Cheng Wulang's ears twitched, he put down his bowl and chopsticks, and said hesitantly: "This seems to be the second brother's voice. I'll open the door."

"No matter what he does, he is a heartless trash. I haven't seen him come home for so long. It's definitely not good for him to come to your door! Where are you going? Sit down for me!" Mrs. Zhao said angrily.

"That's right, last time he helped outsiders but didn't help Zhuzi, I kind of remembered it."

Mr. Qian snorted coldly and helped.

Cheng Dalang raised his head and glanced at his father's expression, and simply didn't say anything. Anyway, what mother meant was what father meant.

Everyone at the dinner table looked at each other.

"Second brother wants to come over in such heavy rain. Maybe there is something urgent. Mom, let the second brother come in. He will definitely not be able to hold on after being exposed to such heavy rain for a long time." Cheng Wulang pulled Zhao.

Old lady's clothes.

Cheng Silang looked outside and saw that the rain in the evening was heavier than that in the morning.

It takes a lot of effort to run over from the west side of the village. If it's not an important matter, there's really no need to run over in the rain.

Little Zhou and him looked at each other and felt that the second brother came here for something important.

At this moment, Cheng Sanlang took a hard bite of the wheat cake and said expressionlessly while chewing: "Anyway, the second brother and Dr. Zeng are so close that we don't have to worry about getting sick or getting into trouble. It's just a few patches of medicine."

"Second brother's family is not short of food now, so maybe he came here to borrow money."

As soon as these words came out, Meng and others immediately thought of the unjust money spent on medicine some time ago, and their faces instantly darkened. Saburo had advanced the money for the medicine, but in the end it was shared equally among several families.

Mrs. Zhao's face was particularly ugly. She glared at Cheng Wulang angrily and said in a cold voice: "Don't go! It used to be raining so heavily that it would last a whole day. If this little rain can't kill him, let him get wet!"

Cheng Wulang suddenly became speechless and said helplessly: "Mom, how long ago did this happen and you are still telling me about it."

This is about the time when the second brother married the second sister-in-law.

At that time, my mother refused, so my second brother knelt in the yard for a whole day. It happened to rain heavily that day, so he was kept wet all day.

Cheng Wulang looked at Old Man Cheng again and shouted: "Dad..."

Old man Cheng picked up his rice bowl and took a sip of the rice soup, and said with a serious face: "Let's talk about it after we finish eating."

After they had almost finished eating the food on the table, the banging on the door outside finally stopped. Seeing this, Cheng Wulang hurriedly put on his raincoat and ran out to open the door. The moment he opened the door, he saw Cheng Lin's back.

"Second brother!"

Cheng Lin turned around in surprise when he heard the sound.

He glanced inside and saw the lights on in the kitchen. His eyes couldn't help but darken, and he asked: "I've been calling for so long, but no one came out to open the door... Are my parents still unwilling to see me?"

"Hey, second brother, what are you talking about?"

Cheng Wulang pulled him inside and pretended that nothing happened: "How can this happen? My parents are saying every day why don't you go home and take a look. We just didn't hear it while we were eating."

"I won't go in."

How could Cheng Lin not know that these were words he deliberately said to comfort him? He smiled bitterly, took a deep breath and stopped.

Looking at Cheng Wulang, he solemnly repeated his words about taking refuge in advance when the flood came, and said: "Wulang, the village chief will sound the gong tomorrow morning to call everyone to gather. Remember to let them all come out."

Cheng Wulang was stunned when he heard this.

He couldn't help but lower his head and glance at the road outside the door. It was now past his second brother's ankles.

"Now that I know about my second brother, I will definitely tell my parents."

"Okay, I have to tell the others that it's raining heavily right now. You should go back quickly. Don't worry about your parents getting cold at this time. Go ahead."

Cheng Lin patted his shoulder, turned around and rushed into the rain again.

Cheng Wulang stared at his back for a long time, then turned around and closed the door and returned to the kitchen. At this moment, Mrs. Zhao and the others were all waiting inside. When they saw him coming in empty-handed, their expressions suddenly became uglier.

Cheng Wulang recounted the conversation just now and said quickly: "Mom and dad, let's pack our things quickly. If we stay for several days, we will have to bring a lot of things..."

"Whatever he accepts, just believe whatever he says. Are you stupid?"

Mrs. Zhao's face was full of anger. At this moment, she was so angry that she didn't care that he was her most beloved son. She pointed at his nose and cursed: "When have you ever seen a flood come to our house? Even if

If you want to flood, flood them first!”

"I'm just saying this to deceive you. It's clearly them who are responsible for the rising water!"
