The next day, Gu Yuan got up early in the morning and packed up his things to return to the county school. But as soon as he went out, he looked up and saw the sky was gloomy and black clouds were pressing down on his head. All the noise cicadas and the rumbling thunder came from his ears.

In such a gloomy sky, there was not even a trace of wind. Even if people stood still, sweat would be pouring out.

Gu Daniu and Gu Erniu had already set up a donkey cart at this time and were about to go out to collect the thick wine. Seeing that Gu Yuan had packed up and came out, Gu Daniu greeted him: "Ayuan, get in the car. My second brother and I plan to go to the town where we collect the wine today, just not far from the county town. Let's take you to the county town first so that you won't go to the ox cart to bump slowly."

Gu Yuan frowned and looked at the gloomy sky, then walked out of the yard and looked at the green corn standing in the ground.

Now, the corn has been slurry, and it is the time to eat tender corn, but it is still about half a month before the collection and storage.

This heavy rain started with hail. He didn't know about the water truck in his previous life and did not plant crops in the village. So when the hail came down, he only needed to take care of the house and not worry about the crops.

When Gu Yuan was telling everyone to strengthen the house and lay hay on the roof, he actually thought that he should take back the corn in the field.

But even if he said that, no one would listen to him.

After working for half a year this year, no other grain can be planted. The villagers all count on the corn in the fields for winter. No one will be willing to break off the corn that has not yet been fully mature.

But if I don’t talk about it now, when the hailstorm hits, there will be no harvest in the ground.

When Gu Yuan came back from outside the yard, he said to Gu Daniu and Gu Erniu who were packing the donkey cart at the door: "Brother, second brother, it's going to rain heavily that day. Let's not go out today. I'll tell my father that our whole family will go and snatch the corn from the field first."

Gu Daniu and Gu Erniu looked at each other, "Ayuan, this corn has just been slurry, so it is appropriate to eat tender corn, but if you want to dry it, it will be all half a flower rice, and the output must be reduced by at least half.

How can I take it back now?"

Gu Yuan explained: "The sky is gloomy now and the weather is very hot. I went out to see it just now. The leaves of the willow tree at the door were all turned upwards. According to the records in the book, there was a phenomenon that would probably be hail before the heavy rain. If the corn in the field was not snatched back, and if it was smashed by hail, it would probably not be reduced by half, but the grains would not be harvested!"

Gu Daniu and Gu Erniu still looked at each other. They only found out that they had been reading for a few days since childhood. They were not the material for studying, so they went home to grow crops with Old Man Gu.

They are genuine farmers. The farmers feel most sorry for the crops. They feel so painful when they want to take back the unripe corn.

But if this is not taken back, if it is the same as Gu Yuan said, there is no rain or hail in the sky, and if the newly slurried corn is smashed by hail, it will be the same as A Yuan said, and nothing will be gone.

Gu Erniu hurriedly ran out to look at the big willow tree next to the yard gate, and indeed saw that the willow leaves were turning upwards.

He ran back and wiped the sweat from his forehead, "Brother, the willow trees outside are really the same as A Yuan said. The leaves are all turned upwards. I have never seen such a strange thing before. A Yuan has read a lot of books, so what he said will not be wrong. We have harvested corn at home now."

Gu Daniu made a decision and said ruthlessly: "Okay, Ayuan, I'll go and tell my parents, you can go to Li Zheng's house and tell Uncle Li Zheng about this. If the villagers are willing to believe it, they can also grab some of them together."

After Gu Daniu finished speaking, he went to find Old Man Gu.

Although Old Man Gu felt sorry for him, he heard Gu Daniu say that this was what Gu Yuan said. He also knew that Gu Yuan never talked without foundation. No matter how much he felt sorry, he immediately summoned the whole family and went to the field.

The Gu family went to grab crops. The emperor, Marquis Su, and Su Ze, who lived in the Gu family, were not idle either, and went to help. The emperor not only asked An Dehai to help pick up the corn, but also went to fight himself.

Yang Li was holding a broken gong and beating in the village, shouting: "The sky is gloomy, and I'm afraid of hail. All households should pay attention to collecting it in advance!"
