Chapter 27 Warning

The sudden heavy rain turned the Qin family's yard into a pool of mud. The rain slowly spread along the soaked ground to the originally dry wall base, and the wall was wet more than a foot high.

If the earth walls were not compacted, the house would not be long and would be maintained normally. If the heavy rain continued like this, the foundation of the wall would sooner or later be damaged, and it would not be far from collapse by then.

Not only that, the old jujube tree in the yard, which had half-dead half, was also hit by lightning, and was directly divided into two from the middle. The dead half was shot to the ground, and the other half was still standing upright.

This old jujube tree is indeed very old and has not blossomed and bears for seven or eight years. Its only function is to provide a shade for the Qin family in the hot summer.

Now that he has been struck in two by lightning, I don’t know if his other half can survive.

Mr. Qin was so old that Qin Shan was worried that he would go to the field to drain water. He got up early, put on a straw raincoat and carried a hoe and went out. He didn't come back until he was about to have breakfast and brought back a big silver carp weighing about three pounds.

When the big silver carp was on the water, Qin Shan, who was drained, was captured alive when he saw it.

"Wow, it's a fish, what a big fish!" Dabao jumped up in joy and hurriedly came forward to take the fish over. As a result, his little hand was slapped heavily by the fish's tail, and the back of his hand turned red in an instant.

Dabao didn't dare to do anything, so he circled around his uncle. If the breakfast hadn't been done, he would have to ask his grandma to stew the fish.

The others were also very happy. Such fresh big silver carp stewed with dai sauce at noon, so the whole family could have a delicious meal!

"The drainage is done? No water is accumulated?" After Qin Shan took off his straw raincoat, changed into dry clothes and came to the dining table. Old Master Qin didn't care about eating and cared about the crops in the field.

"It's done, there's no big problem." Qin Shan is very strong and is a good at doing farm work. He did the drainage in the morning: "If the rain keeps going like this, the seedlings will rot sooner or later."

The terrain of their village is not low, and the drainage in the ground will not accumulate water after it is done. The problem is that the rain is too heavy, the soil is soaked and absorbed full water. After a long time, the roots of the seedlings will not be able to stand it. At this time, the seedlings will rot and the seedlings will be too late to replenish them, and the yield reduction is inevitable.

"It's okay, it won't last long." Mr. Qin is worthy of being an old farmer. He saw the sky when he woke up early and could hardly make a mistake.

Qin Shan felt relieved: "That's good. I have to send my third brother out in the afternoon. It's hard to leave like this."

Qin He was drinking porridge, and when he heard this, he said, "It's okay, this weather is delayed for two days, so sir won't blame him."

After breakfast, the rain still stopped. The whole family could only stay in the house, weaving the straw ropes, making the needles and threads, reading books, and looking up from time to time to say a few words, but they didn't feel bored.

Dabao and his wife couldn't sit still, so they sneaked under the eaves to play with water. Finally, Zhao Cao'er cursed and pulled his ears back into the house. Finally, Dabao yelled to catch fish again, and asked Qin Shan, the uncle, to take him there. Qin Shan kicked him in the butt, and finally became peaceful.

Qin Xiaoxiao really couldn't stay there. She wanted to go out and play like before, staring at the outside of the house and babbling.

Qin Shan didn't dare to take her out in this weather. Even when he stood under the eaves to watch the rain, he was afraid that the water vapor would rush to her, so he hugged her and squatted on the edge of the water basin to see the big silver carp shaking his tail.

“Yi—Yi—”

When Qin Xiaoxiao saw a fish for the first time, her curiosity was suddenly hooked up. She looked at the big silver carp, then at her father, as if she was asking what it was.

To his daughter, Qin Shan was more patient than ever, and pointed at the big silver carp and explained seriously: "Nannan, this is fish, eat everything in the water, so it grows so fat. It tastes good, fried, fried, stewed in water, and roasted in fire. When you can get the meat, Dad will come to Qinghu and grab a bigger one for you to eat meat."

Qinghu is a natural lake next to Qingshan Village. Qinghu is very large and has deep water. Even if it encounters a drought that is rare in a century, Qinghu has never dried up. It is precisely through Qinghu that Qingshan Village can avoid drought. In the years of famine, the harvested crops can live without starving to death.

Qin Xiaoxiao could not understand, but she also gave her father a lot of face. She yelled and called Hu Qingqing over. So the two dolls started chatting enthusiastically at the silver carp, giggling from time to time, which made the adults laugh.

At noon, Old Mrs. Miao stewed the big silver carp that had been turned upside down.

The big silver carp came from Qinghu. The flesh was delicate and tender. Adding a spoonful of big sauce, the whole house was filled with a salty and scented smell. Dabao kept running into the stove, hoping to bury his head in the pot.

When a full pot of fish was served on the table, not only were the adults' greed aroused, but even Qin Xiaoxiao and Hu Qingqing couldn't stop drooling, and soon wet the saliva on their chests.

Seeing that his daughter was so greedy, Qin Shan felt very distressed. He dipped her chopsticks into some soup and applied it to her little mouth.

Lin Qiuniang saw it and said angrily: "Nannan is still young, how can she eat this?"

"Just one, it's okay." Looking at his daughter who was smacking her mouth with relish, Qin Shan showed a kind father-in-law smile. He endured it and did not give her a little more.

Seeing that his little cousin had eaten, Hu Qingqing stopped doing it and was making a fuss in Qin Guihua's arms. Qin Guihua had no choice but to pick up the chopsticks and dip them in a little soup for her to taste.

“Wow—Wow—”

Delicious, delicious, delicious!

"Woo-Woo-Woo-Woo-"

Have to eat, eat, and eat!

The two milk dolls were used to drinking the tasteless goat milk and rice soup. The first time they tasted a unique and delicious taste, how could this drop of fish soup satisfy? Now, they couldn't wait until their parents feed them, and they howled at the same time.

If the crying of a doll is equal to five hundred ducks, then the crying of two dolls is no less than the power of a thousand ducks. The two little guys cannot understand the adults at all. They are more loud than the other, and each one is more crying than the other!

Finally, Mr. Qin scolded Qin Shan fiercely, and asked Lin Qiuniang and Qin Guihua to carry the two little ones to the room to feed the goat's milk, and finally stopped their crying like a demonic sound.

What is so happy is that after a whole night and a morning of heavy rain, it stopped crying between the two dolls. Although the sun has not come out for the time being, the dark clouds above the head scattered at a speed visible to the naked eye, and I think it will not fall again.

The rain stopped and the sun was about to come out. After Qin He finished his meal, he went back to his room to pack his pen, ink, paper and inkstone and changing clothes, and prepared to go out of the mountain to go to the county town.
