Chapter 197 197 Fall in the ditch?

After waking up, the air is fresh, the spring rain is falling, the whole earth has been redeemed, and everyone has a beaming smile on their faces.

"Xiaomi, come over to eat, after dinner, let's wash our hair and take a bath."

Erniang greeted Xiaomi happily. After waiting for half a year for the rain to finally fall, how could she be unhappy?
And the rain came at the right time. When the rain is over, whether it is planting sorghum, corn, or rice breeding, you can continue!
Xiaomi happily ran to her mother: "Mother, when did it rain, why don't I know?"

Xiaoxue also came out of the room at this moment, and she was very speechless when she heard this: "What are you talking about, I called you several times last night and you didn't wake up."

Oh, Xiaomi came to his senses: "It rained last night."

Last night when she was in the space, she did notice the voice of her second sister calling her, but because she happened to be cooking at that time, she didn't go out in a hurry.

In addition, the second sister only called her a few times, and she was not in a hurry, so she was even less nervous, and waited until Wei Ziang fell asleep before coming out.

Xiaomi happily rushed into the yard and came back after running around: "Great, it's finally raining. Are the locusts dying too?"

Locusts are very sun-loving insects, the more dry the more rampant.

On the contrary, if the ground or climate is wet, the locusts will not eat and die.

It happened that Xiaoxue also came to Mother's side, and Erniang patted their heads: "Look, there are almost no locusts in the sky."

The locusts that were overwhelming the sky the day before now are only scattered, and some are still hiding from the rain under the eaves.

They were all motionless. If they were not still lying on the wall, they would have wondered if they were dead.

"Auntie," Liu Ze came from the backyard, saw Xiaoxue and Xiaomi, and smiled slightly: "Xiaoxue and Xiaomi, Aunt Yang has already prepared the meals."

"Okay, let's go to eat first, and clean up after dinner."

Erniang took her two daughters to eat, when passing by Liu Ze, Xiaomi suddenly asked.

"Brother Ze, why did you change your name to your sister? Didn't you always call her Miss Xiaoxue?"

Blinking his big eyes, Liu Ze was also taken aback by the question, a little unresponsive.

Erniang pinched the tip of Xiaomi's nose: "You, you, everyone is so familiar, why should you be so polite?"

Xiaomi blinked, is it really because it is cooked?
But look at Second Sister and Liu Ze...

Forget it, it will take a few months before they are six or eight years old, they are all little kids.

The slightest idea that came up because Liu Ze changed his name was instantly forgotten.

The porridge was cooked in the morning, and Aunt Yang specially made buns. After finishing the sauerkraut, it was stuffed with bacon and radish.

The steamed stuffed bun was alright, but they hadn't eaten porridge for a month or two, and there was a lot of water to cook porridge, so no one dared to waste it.

It's all right now, it's raining, dozens of large tanks in the yard are filled with water, and the water in the well has also risen. Finally, I don't have to worry about water use!

After eating steamed stuffed buns and sweet potato porridge comfortably, several large pots full of water were boiled, and I even found two bathtubs for soaking.

For almost the whole morning, everyone was cleaning themselves.

The water for bathing and shampooing is dark, and after several times of washing, it finally becomes clean, and I feel a lot more relaxed, as if rubbing a few catties of mud out.

Er Niang specially built a fire under the eaves in front of the kitchen door, and specially roasted her hair.

The drizzle has been falling, the weather is a bit cold, don't dry your hair quickly, it is easy to catch cold.

Xiaomi dozed off on her mother's lap, thinking that after a few more days, she would get Wei Ziang out, so she wouldn't have to be upside down like this day and night.

After lunch, Jiang Hu and Liu Bo changed into coir raincoats, took a hoe, and went to the river to have a look.

The riverbed, which was so dry and cracked before, now has a trickle flowing down the river.

Jiang Hu rummaged in the ground, after a night of belated spring rain, the rain soaked the ground, but it wasn't enough.

The ground below a foot is still dry.

The same is true in the field. Jiang Hu blocked the water outlet of the paddy field to let the rainwater stay in the paddy field. Not only him, but many other people are also busy.

It's already March, and after the rain, it's time to raise rice seedlings.

Then the two went to the pond. The lotus pond of the Jiang family had turned into a pond.

There is a ditch around the pond, and the rainwater flows in along the ditch, which is as tall as a person by visual estimation.

Jiang Hu walked around the pond and thought for a while.

"It seems that after the weather clears, we need to build a fence for the pond. Just leave it open like this, and it will be bad if someone accidentally falls."

"Don't use fences, use stones, and surround the pond. By the way, you can also dig a few steps of ladders next to it, so that you can raise geese and ducks in the future."

Uncle Liu's method is obviously better, Jiang Hu nodded: "Just now the water hasn't come up yet, when I came out just now, I brought lotus seeds, so I might as well plant them by the side of this pond."

It can grow in pools on the mountain, let alone here.

It's a pity that the lotus roots dug up before have been eaten up, and even the lotus root buds left before have been eaten up.

The main reason is that if you don’t eat it and keep it, it will be broken.

Jiang Hu asked Liu Bo to go back first, and then he made a simple mark first, and then dug the steps when the weather cleared, and then went around the pond, planting all the lotus seeds he brought.

Originally, there were not many lotus seeds, but after this, they will be gone immediately, and the lotus ponds are not needed for the time being.

This spring rain fell for four days at once, and even the water level in the river returned to the previous normal level, or even higher.

Just when everyone was worried about whether there would be another flood after the drought, the weather finally cleared up on the fifth day.

In March of Yangchun, everything recovers.

The weeds on the ground finally emerged again, bringing a trace of green to the land that had been barren for half a year.

Everyone walked in the fields clean and tidy, as if it was the Chinese New Year now, and everyone's faces were beaming.

The muddy path is full of footprints, whether it is an adult or a child, there is no disgust at this moment.

I even happily shuttled through the fields, carrying a hoe, checking my land to see if it had really recovered.

It seems that only by seeing it with your own eyes can you be sure of it.

The Jiang family was also busy in the field. They couldn't go to the field just after it rained, so they had to wait for two sunny days before they could start planting.

However, we can work in the fields. On the first day of rain, everyone unanimously filled the paddy fields with water.

The dry and cracked paddy fields have been soaked for several days now, and it is a good time to plow them.

However, the calf at home is still too young to work. In the past two years, I still have to turn the ground by myself first.

But even if he plowed the fields by himself, it still couldn't reduce the joy in everyone's hearts.

The belated spring plowing has finally begun!

After a drizzle, everything recovered, and the entire Fu'an Village became busy.

When everyone was busy in the field, Xiaomi also started to worry.

Wei Ziang's injury is almost healed, at least there will be no infection and so on.

Now just wait for the scars of the wound to fall off, and you can return to normal.

Of course, it is normal for the body.

As far as memory is concerned, Xiaomi is completely helpless.

Now that the injury is almost healed, he can no longer be kept in the space, otherwise, staying alone all the time is not good for his body and mind.

Qixi came out of the old man's house, just in time to see Xiaomi lying on the fence under the eaves in a daze, holding her cheeks.

"Miss Xiaomi, why are you here alone, aren't you sleeping?"

As soon as Xiaomi raised his eyes, he saw Qi Xi who had changed into clean clothes, and his eyes suddenly lit up.

"Uncle Qixi, are you going to town?"

Qixi nodded: "Yes, it's not that the weather has finally cleared up, let's go and see the situation in the town."

Most importantly, he had to find someone to deliver letters to the county.

After all, the master and the young master have lost contact with the county for several months.

The distance is far away, the situation outside is uncertain, and it is impossible to go to the county for a while. Sending a letter is the quickest and easiest way.

Xiaomi had guessed this answer a long time ago. When she was having breakfast, she had heard from Grandpa Liu about delivering a letter to the county.

Immediately stood up: "Uncle Qixi, let me go with you! I haven't been to town for a long time!"

Qixi was stunned for a moment, and then she couldn't laugh or cry: "Miss Xiaomi, I'm afraid there is nothing delicious and interesting in the town right now, why don't you go to the town after a while?"

He thought that Xiaomi hadn't been to town for a long time and wanted to play.

Xiaomi shook her head again and again: "I'm not playing, I'm just going to have a look. Don't worry, Uncle Qixi, I'm in the carriage and I'm not going anywhere."

It just so happened that Uncle Liu also came out at this moment. Hearing Xiaomi's words, he thought for a while: "Go to the field and tell your parents first. I also want to go back and have a look. If your parents agree, you can follow me." Let's go and see together."

It turned out that Uncle Liu was going back to town too, so Xiaomi was even happier.

"Thank you, Grandpa Liu!"

Xiaomi was so excited.

At the moment everyone is in the field, only Xiaoxue is at home watching her younger sister who may be sleeping at any time. Uncle Liu calls on Xiaomi and takes the two sisters to the field to find Er Niang Jiang and Hu.

Xiaoxue doesn't want to go to the town, Xiaomi has selfish intentions, so it's fine if she doesn't let her sister follow her, but she insists on going to the town.

Erniang Jiang and Hu had no choice but to agree.

Fortunately, Liu Ze didn't intend to go back together, otherwise, Jiang Hu Erniang would never have let Xiaomi go to town with Uncle Liu and the others.

In the carriage, Xiaomi had a conversation with Grandpa Liu, then yawned, looking drowsy.

Uncle Liu shook his head with a smile: "Xiaomi, you should rest for a while, and I'll call you when we get to town."

"Okay, thank you, Grandpa Liu." Really leaning on the carriage, he closed his eyes and fell asleep.

In fact, as soon as Xiaomi closed his eyes, he went to the space, and quickly found the rotten clothes that Wei Ziang was wearing before.

The clothes were simply washed by her, but they were still tattered. After washing the blood stains, there were still traces left on them.

As expected, Wei Ziang was sleeping, so Xiaomi hurriedly took those rags for him to change into.

"After changing your clothes, you continue to sleep. When the time is up, I will take you to my house, but you must sleep. If you don't fall asleep, you can't leave here, you know?"

Xiaomi exhorted solemnly.

Although Wei Ziang was dazed, he still nodded seriously: "Okay, I understand."

Xiaomi stood on tiptoe and touched the top of Wei Ziang's head who was sitting on the bed.

"Hey, don't be afraid. Remember what I told you. After you get out, you can't tell about this place, and you can't say that I saved you. Just pretend that you don't remember anything, okay?"

Wei Ziang nodded seriously again: "Okay."

Only then did Xiaomi feel relieved: "Then go to bed after changing your clothes, you must sleep, otherwise you won't be able to leave here, and I won't be able to come and play with you often!"

Wei Ziang seemed a little frightened, with a panicked expression on his face, and then quickly nodded in agreement.

Xiaomi left the yard and noticed that Xiao Hei Mi was running and playing in the space.

After waiting for a few more days, she took some time to secretly put Xiaomi and Xiaohe outside the gate at night, pretending that they found it by themselves.

At the same time, I am also fortunate that Xiaomi and Xiaohei can't speak at all, so I don't have to worry about going through the gang, is there any?
After closing the courtyard gate, Xiaomi left the space and started to sleep.

After all, the horse-drawn carriage was much faster than the bullock-drawn carriage. After half an hour, Uncle Liu woke up Xiaomi, who had already arrived at the back door of Liu's mansion.

"Xiaomi, let's go. We just stopped by to see the situation. The shops in the town haven't opened yet, so there's nothing to buy."

Uncle Liu got out of the carriage, and Qixi was tying the reins to a nearby tree, and a little envelope was still exposed at the front of her chest.

"Okay, Grandpa Liu, I haven't been to your house yet, what are your parents like?"

After being carried off the carriage by Uncle Liu, Xiaomi kept looking around curiously, trying to find opportunities.

"When the town recovers in the future, I will come to Grandpa Liu's house to play at that time. There must be nothing left at home right now."

Indeed, the back door was originally locked, but now it has been forced open, and the lock is still hanging on the broken door.

It seems that in the past six months, the outside world has not been peaceful.

Uncle Liu took Xiaomi in. The original plants in the yard were all dead, but it had rained for several days before, and a light layer of moss had grown on the ground again.

Xiaomi's eyes rolled around, but Uncle Liu didn't think much of it, he just thought she was curious.

Walking through the backyard and about to step over the arch and enter the front yard, Xiaomi suddenly clutched his stomach.

"Grandpa Liu, where is there a latrine? I'm about to poop."

Uncle Liu was taken aback, and quickly pointed in a direction: "Over there, Qixi quickly take Xiaomi there."

Qixi hurriedly led Xiaomi to that direction, but as soon as she saw the location of the hut from a distance, Xiaomi wrinkled her nose quickly.

"Uncle Qixi, you are a boy, you can't go with me, you go to the door and wait for me, I'll come out by myself."

Qi Xi had no doubts, nodded and turned around to leave the small courtyard: "Then Miss Xiaomi, be careful."

However, Qixi waited behind the door for nearly a quarter of an hour, but did not see Xiaomi coming out, even Liu Bo came from the front.

"What about Xiaomi, why hasn't healed up for so long. Could it be a stomachache?"

As he said that, he yelled twice into the yard: "Xiaomi, Xiaomi, are you alright?"

no respond.

The two felt a lump in their hearts, and Qixi's face turned pale: "Could it be that he fell into the latrine?"

Uncle Liu was so frightened that he staggered and almost fell, but fortunately he supported the wall in time: "Quick, go and have a look!"
