Chapter 7372 Alienation
As a result, they were worried for a long time, and there was no other sound outside except the sound of wind and rain.

There was still no movement until I went to bed.

Only then did Dabai feel relieved, but he still decided to leave Changping Village immediately at dawn, so as not to have long nights and dreams.

As for Yang Huamei, she tossed and turned in bed.

She had been worried that her natal brothers and sisters-in-law would come to get the gold bracelet, but now she was sure they would not come, and her heart was empty again.

She understands that from now on, she can't count on her natal family's help, and she can only rely on herself for everything.

The next day, before dawn, smoke billowed from the old Wang's kitchen.

Yang Huamei stewed a large bowl of noodles for Dabai with the leftover pork belly broth from last night, and spread two golden poached eggs on top of the noodles.

In addition, he cooked five or six duck eggs for Dabai to take with him on the road.

"Son, have you put away all the silver and gold bracelets?"

While Dabai was squatting at the mouth of the stove, Yang Huamei asked in a low voice.

Dabai patted himself on the chest: "Mother, don't worry, everything is put away, if the things are there, if the things are gone, the people will die!"

"Chicken butt mouth, nonsense, good luck, bah bah bah!"

Yang Huamei's complexion changed, not only did she spat hard on the ground, but also asked Dabai to follow suit.

Dabai smiled: "Mother, I don't shy away from those things, so don't worry too much about them."

"How can you be so casual, kid? This is a rule passed down from the older generation, and it is always useful." Yang Huamei was a little unhappy.

But I was more worried. After all, my son was going to travel early in the morning and he still had valuables with him.

"Why don't you change the date and go out tomorrow?" She hesitated and asked again.

Dabai smiled indifferently, "Mother, we really don't pay attention to those things. Believe me, the more casual the better, I'm a stupid person who has no taboos!"

Yang Huamei had no choice but to sigh inwardly, then silently went to the place where the Kitchen God's picture was posted inside the pot and lit a lamp, put her hands together in front of her chest, bowed her head and prayed softly.

I pray that the Kitchen God can bless Dabai with a smooth trip and everything will be fine.

……

After seeing Dabai off, it was dawn.

Yang Huamei took her dirty clothes to wash in the pond at the entrance of the village, and all she heard was about the flood.

These daughter-in-laws don't know where they heard the news. They said that the polder was broken here, and that there was a gap in the embankment there.

In short, the ponds, lakes and rivers everywhere seem to be filled to the brim, ready to burst anytime and anywhere.

Someone saw Yang Huamei squatting there without saying a word, and took the initiative to talk to her: "Dabai Niang, I heard that your Dabai came back yesterday?"

"Well, I came back once, and left again today." Yang Huamei said.

The woman then said: "This house might be flooded at any time. Others dare to go to the house. Why are your two sons still running outside?"

Yang Huamei said: "What you said is not right. My two sons are both working outside and doing business."

"Oh, when can't we do things and do business? Tang Yazi is still a general, and now he is leading everyone to fight against floods at the embankment day and night, and your two sons are doing it. It’s a big deal? Not one of them will come back, and they won’t contribute, is that plausible?”

The woman who spoke was an outspoken master. The man in her family had a good relationship with Yang Huazhong. Both the man and the third brother's son were working on the embankment, and the eldest daughter-in-law even went to cook on the embankment.

In Yang Ruoqing's words, the family's ideological consciousness is very high, so seeing that there was no male from the old Wang's family this time, and Dabai ran away after a flash, the woman must say a few words to ridicule.

"It's up to you whether it looks like it or not. You can take care of your own affairs." Yang Huamei was also very disrespectful to the other party, and immediately turned back.

The woman sneered: "The family that Gutou ignores his body doesn't look like people from Lao Yang's family at all."

"Where I came from has nothing to do with you, you are a dog biting a mouse and meddling in your own business!"

"Who are you calling a mouse?"

"Why am I scolding you?"

Seeing that the two women were about to pinch each other, at this time, Mrs. Sun and Bao Suyun happened to come over to wash, so they separated them quickly.

The woman spat and said to Sun: "I don't even bother to talk to that kind of person. I don't have the slightest view of the overall situation. I'm sorry for this too. I won't talk to her next time."

Sun smiled apologetically at the woman, and said in a low voice, "Sister-in-law, give me some face, forget it."

The woman sighed, picked up her clothes and left.

"Third sister-in-law, fifth sister-in-law, thank you for helping me out."

In front of Mrs. Sun and Bao Suyun, Yang Huamei withdrew her previous aggressive aura and became weak-spoken.

Mrs. Sun and Bao Suyun just exchanged glances, and Mrs. Sun said, "My sister-in-law doesn't mean anything malicious, so let's each take a step back."

Yang Huamei felt a little wronged.

But Mrs. Sun and Bao Suyun were obviously not interested in chatting with her, and they went to wash elsewhere with a bucket.

"Third sister-in-law, fifth sister-in-law, there is an open space here, let's wash together." Yang Huamei issued an invitation from behind.

Sun turned her head and said, "You wash it, we have too many things, it's more convenient to wash it over there."

This alienated and polite tone made Yang Huamei feel very uncomfortable.

She bit her lip, squatted down angrily, and turned her back to that side.

And when Sun and Bao Suyun squatted behind, Bao Suyun said to Sun in a low voice: "Are we doing this too obviously? I think Meier is very upset."

Sun shook her head, "I can't control that much anymore, there is no one in this world who can make everyone happy, let's listen to your third brother and Qing'er, and distance yourself from the old Wang family."

Bao Suyun nodded and said nothing more.

Luo family.

During breakfast, Luo Baobao excitedly reported to Yang Ruoqing the progress of the shipbuilding in the past few days.

"Mother, Jingling is really good. The boats are built fast and strong. He breaks down those processes into parts, and everyone divides the work and cooperates to assemble them at the end. It really saves a lot of time."

"Grinding the materials on the first day, polishing various parts on the second day, and waiting for tomorrow, that is, the third day to complete the assembly, and testing the water the day after tomorrow."

"A batch of five boats is all right. He said that it was because of rush work. After the first batch of boats came out for emergency, he would build a bigger boat, the one with a shed."

When Yang Ruoqing heard what Luo Baobao said, she was also excited and looking forward to it.

"Let's not talk about the big boats, let's just talk about the five small boats. With those small boats, I feel more at ease."

Luo Baobao nodded, "Let's continue!"

When Luo Baobao and Zuo Jingling were busy building a boat, and Luo Fengtang and the others threw themselves on the embankment, Yang Ruoqing also received news from her subordinates.

The letters she sent out a few days ago have all responded, Xu Mang, Zuo Junmo and the others have already come here to adjust food.

The food was already on its way to Qingshui Town, so Yang Ruoqing had to go to the town to settle the food.
