Zhang Hongmei stood next to the collapsed fence, her tone full of regret.
There were many people standing around, some of whom felt the same pity as Zhang Hongmei, and some who made sarcastic remarks.
"The shelf was not set up properly, and it would fall down when the wind blew." Zhao Hongxia said in the crowd.
Bai Lu rushed to the vegetable field and saw that the tomato vines she and her children had worked so hard to grow had all fallen to the ground, and most of the leaves were curled and withered.
Lin Yulan said excitedly: "Who did it? Who knocked down the fence of Lulu's house?"
"What are you talking about? Wasn't this shelf knocked down by the wind?" Everyone said, "Who would knock it down?"
Lin Yulan was stunned, "What? Wind? Why, how could it be blown down by the wind?"
She didn't know what happened when she asked this question. After all, she didn't see the situation when the shelf fell to the ground. Her words were unfounded. No one knew how it fell at that time.
Although Bai Lu felt that the fence was not blown down by the wind, but if it was really man-made, who would admit it? It would be useless to ask, and she could only admit that she was unlucky.
In order to cover up her guilty conscience, Zhao Hongxia deliberately said: "Did you see that Sister-in-law Su didn't even say anything? Lin Yulan, what are you yelling about?"
"Just because I don't speak doesn't mean I think the fence was blown down by the wind!" Bai Lu looked at Zhao Hongxia.
Seeing her sudden glance, Zhang Hongmei coughed uncomfortably, "The wind was quite strong last night. It's normal for the fence to be blown down."
"Yes, Sister-in-law Su, it's not Feng, is it someone else who pushed her? Who do you think would be so vicious?"
"I think the child may have been naughty and ran around in the vegetable field, accidentally knocking down the fence."
People around were talking a lot. Bai Lu thought that her eldest son was at home today and asked Lin Yulan to help find Zhiyuan.
Today is the school anniversary. There are phalanx performers and waist drum performers. Only those wearing white cloth shoes from each class can participate, and the others can only be onlookers.
Su Zhiyuan did not have white cloth shoes. The shoes on his feet were old grass-green military shoes. There was a patch on the thumb, which was obviously worn out.
After watching on the playground for a while, he felt bored and secretly went home alone.
When Bai Lu went downstairs with a bucket to water the water, she happened to see him coming home and thought he had skipped class.
"I'm not skipping class. I don't have to go to class on the school anniversary," Su Zhiyuan said, "Mom, let me lift it for you. This water is sinking..."
"No, you have to do your homework at home even if you don't have class. By the way, Jinbao and Huahua are in the room, you take good care of them." Bai Lu said.
Her son nodded, "I understand."
Bai Lu thought the tomatoes could still be saved, so she asked Lin Yulan to find her son to help.
Not long after, I heard the voice of an impatient young man in the distance, "What's going on? Why did the perfectly fine fence fall down? Dad and us made it very stable!"
"Zhiyuan..." Bai Lu looked at her son.
Su Zhiyuan was followed by Lin Yulan, who was holding little Jinbao in her arms, and Yao Hua was beside her.
"There's absolutely no way it was blown down by the wind!" Yao Hua walked up to the crowd and said in an extremely sure tone.
"Why? It's normal for the fence to be knocked down by the wind. I used to grow loofahs in the production team, and it was blown down by strong winds once."
"That's right, how normal is it to be blown down? Is there anything impossible about it?"
While everyone was talking, Zhang Hongmei couldn't help but ask Yao Hua: "Hua Hua, why do you think this shelf was definitely not blown down by the wind?"
"Because the wind direction in Jinghai City has obvious seasonal changes, the northwest wind prevails in winter and the southeast wind prevails in summer. The southeast wind is blocked by this slope. It is absolutely impossible to blow down the fence in the center of the slope!"
The little boy is organized clearly and speaks fluently.
He later said that he had thought about this issue when he asked Uncle Su and Jinbao's brothers to choose to plant fences.
The "human" frame has a stable support, but poor ventilation and light transmission. The fence frame has good ventilation and light transmission, but has a large windshield.
If the wind blows from the northwest instead of the southeast in summer, he will definitely ask Uncle Su to build a more stable "human" frame instead of a fence frame.
Everyone was stunned by Yao Hua's long words. Although they probably understood them, they were a little confused.
"You...how can you be sure that the southeast wind blows in summer? Maybe the northwest wind happened to blow last night?" Zhao Hongxia questioned.
After she asked, someone in the crowd suddenly said: "It is indeed the wind blowing from the southeast. My balcony happens to be facing the southeast, and my clothes were blown down by the wind last night."
"That's true. My balcony faces northwest. There's not much wind in summer, but it's windy in winter."
Lin Yulan said: "Since the fence frame of Lulu's house was not blown down by the wind, it must have been done by someone!"
"Who is it? Who knocked down my tomatoes? Come out and apologize!" Su Zhiyuan said angrily.
Little Jinbao's cheeks were puffed up, as if he was cheering for his elder brother, "Ah na na..."
Who is it?
unacceptable!
For these dishes, my mother had to water the ground and weed the fields every day in the bright sun, and she got tanned.
Someone must have been jealous of the good growth of her vegetables, so they broke the tomato vines.
Zhao Hongxia swallowed nervously.
She is actually quite afraid of the Su family, not only because Master Su is an engineer in the factory and has a higher position than her husband, but also because of the sons of the Su family...
This Su Zhiyuan has grown very tall, especially in the past two years. At the age of 16, he has grown to 1.77 meters, which is almost as tall as his father. It is estimated that he will be taller than his father in the future.
He had a strong build and wore only a white short-sleeved undershirt, revealing his thick and powerful arms.
When he stared at people now, his eyes seemed to be bursting with flames.
"Is someone's child being naughty?" Zhang Hongmei guessed.
"My Niuniu went home early yesterday. It can't be her! Lihua, is he your son?"
Xie Lihua, who was named, blushed anxiously, "My two children have been staying at home. My mother-in-law doesn't let them run around, so how can they come to play in the vegetable field?"
Everyone said it couldn't be their child.
Suddenly someone was wondering, "Huh? Why didn't you see He Dali's wife today?"
"Yes, Li Qinghua used to go to the vegetable field early to water the vegetables. Why didn't she see her today?"
When everyone mentioned Li Qinghua, Zhao Hongxia, who had a guilty conscience, hurriedly asked: "Has she done something bad and is afraid of being exposed, so she doesn't dare to go out to meet people?"
"Oh! Speaking of which, she made a bet yesterday that Master Su's tomato vines would never bloom."
"Yes, yes, she said it."
Everyone was talking and chattering.
Lin Yulan said to Bailu: "It's probably her! Ever since we started sowing seeds, Li Qinghua has never had a good word to say. Now that she sees the tomatoes growing luxuriantly and blooming, she feels jealous and knocks down the fence!"
