After spitting several times in a row, I finally opened my eyes.
"Mom Wen Xin?" Grandma Liu said hoarsely, feeling confused for a moment.
Xu Miaomiao cried with joy, her eyes red, "Great, you finally woke up."
This was the first time she had saved someone like this, and it was under such circumstances.
I originally thought of giving it a try, but I didn't expect it to actually work.
"Mom Wen Xin, did you save me?"
"Yes, everyone in the village has come out to look for you. Let's go back quickly." Xu Miaomiao stood up and looked towards the village.
From this angle, nothing can be seen.
Xu Miaomiao supported Grandma Liu, and the two of them moved very slowly.
As she walked, Xu Miaomiao suddenly saw a child of several years old floating towards her out of the corner of her eye.
As the water flows, the struggle gradually stops.
Xu Miaomiao's pupils shrank, she couldn't care less, and asked Grandma Liu to stay where she was.
She squatted down halfway, locked her eyes on the child, and prepared to stop him.
Soon, soon.
It's almost there.
Xu Miaomiao held her breath and concentrated very hard.
hiss!
It hurts.
Fortunately, he successfully intercepted the child and stabilized the bodies of the two of them.
"Wen Xinma!"
It's the village chief's voice.
Xu Miaomiao looked up and saw that the village chief and the villagers were walking this way.
She showed a smile.
Back in the village, Grandma Liu and the child were handed over to the village chief.
Xu Miaomiao was soaked all over and had no strength at all.
My forearm hurts a little, maybe it's twisted.
After returning home, Xu Miaomiao took a hot shower.
hiss.
When changing clothes, she accidentally touched her forearm.
There is obvious redness and swelling on it.
But it's nothing serious, I think it'll be fine in a few days.
Xu Miaomiao directed her sons to use sandbags to build up the doorway.
Even so, there was still a layer of water in the house.
Fortunately, not many.
The next morning.
When Xu Miaomiao got up, she found that there was more water in the yard, giving people a suffocating feeling.
After breakfast, I was about to go to the village chief to discuss it, but the village chief came over.
Seeing that the water in Xu Miaomiao's house was blocked outside the house, he was obviously stunned for a moment.
"Mom Wen Xin, if the rain continues like this, our village will probably be flooded in two days."
The small rivers around Liujia Village have long been filled with water, and the rainwater has no place to flow and gathers in the village.
The water on the road is now up to his thighs!
There is nothing but water in every house.
If the mattress hadn't been raised, I wouldn't have been able to sleep at night.
Xu Miaomiao also knew about this situation, "I know, I just don't know when the rain will stop."
If it continues, Liujia Village may really be flooded.
"It seems like it won't stop anytime soon."
It should have been stopped a long time ago, and it won’t wait until now.
Xu Miaomiao thought for a long time and looked at Liu Mao seriously, "If it doesn't stop raining, the house will be filled with water the day after tomorrow at most."
By then it will be impossible to live in it, and people may even drown.
"What should we do? There are so many people in the village." Liu Mao was almost dying of anxiety.
Their Liujia Village is low-lying and can easily collect water.
It has been peaceful in the past years because it has never rained so hard and for such a long time.
Not to mention that he has been the village chief for so many years, even his ancestors have never seen such a situation.
"Let's move." Xu Miaomiao said seriously.
"Moving? Where to move?" Liu Mao was surprised.
"Mountain."
"On the mountain?!"
"Yes, the best way at the moment is for the whole village to move to the mountains to take shelter, and then make plans after the rain stops and the water drains."
The top of the mountain is so high that no matter how deep the water is, it cannot be submerged.
Liu Mao was silent, thinking about the feasibility of this matter.
After a while.
"Okay! Just do it, I'll go and inform the villagers now."
Liu Mao is an activist who dares to make decisions without hesitation or procrastination.
I also have that kind of blind trust in Xu Miaomiao in my heart.
I feel that what Xu Miaomiao said is probably correct.
Rather than waiting to be drowned in the village, it is better to fight hard.
It didn't take long.
Xu Miaomiao heard Liu Mao's voice coming from the radio.
"Everyone, listen to me. For the sake of safety, the whole village is packing up and taking all important things such as money with them."
"Be prepared with more food and drinks. We don't know when the rain will stop, so we must be fully prepared."
"Besides, whether you move or not depends entirely on your own volition. My suggestion and that of Wen Xin's mother is to move."
“If someone doesn’t want to move, we won’t force it.”
Liu Mao spoke very comprehensively and rambled on for twenty minutes.
Xu Miaomiao was packing her things in the room while listening to what Liu Mao said on the radio.
If you need it, take it with you; if you don't need it, put it away.
A few sacks were also collected here and there.
Food, drink, accommodation, etc.
Everything was packed into dozens of sacks.
Xu Miaomiao, Liu Wenxin, and Liu Wenshao took the lead and walked up the mountain with a few sacks.
"You guys wait here until we find a place for resettlement before you go." Xu Miaomiao made arrangements to go out first.
The sack cannot be wetted, and can only be carried on the shoulders or held in the arms.
Also be careful not to get wet in the rain.
It was a difficult time for a few people to leave.
Especially Xu Miaomiao, who couldn't walk halfway through.
"Mom, give it to me."
Xu Miaomiao lightly touched her shoulder, and Liu Wenxin took the sack over.
Walk ahead and open the way easily.
Xu Miaomiao didn't stop her either.
It's better for her not to show off, lest she lose her grip and fall into the water.
Soon, several people came to the mountain.
The low-lying areas were covered with water, and a few people could only walk up.
After walking for about ten minutes, Xu Miaomiao estimated that the water should not be submerged at this height.
Then we found a flat place and started building temporary houses.
Find wood to prop up a large raincloth, and then fix it on the ground to make it look like a simple tent.
There were two in total, one male and one female.
After making arrangements, Liu Wenxin and Liu Wenshao continued down the mountain to get their things.
Xu Miaomiao spread all the straw in her pocket on the ground, stamped it firmly, and then spread it on the mat.
This way you can sleep.
Fortunately, it is summer, but it would be difficult in winter.
In summer, sleeping in a drafty place like this won't make you feel too cold. Instead, you'll feel very cool.
After finishing it, Xu Miaomiao walked home and continued to move things.
Many people in the village saw them taking action and started to move.
After a whole day, Xu Miaomiao's family finally finished moving all the things they could move.
Li Hongying and Liu Dexing also moved next door to them.
"Third daughter-in-law, what should I do with those chickens on the hill?"
There are so many chickens that I can’t take them away and eat them all.
What's going on?
"Dad, it's okay. Just leave the chicken alone and let it depend on your luck." Xu Miaomiao thought for a while and said.
With so many chickens, we definitely can't take them away.
With luck, the hilltop might not be flooded and the chickens could survive.
If you are not lucky, you can only accept your fate.
