I am Fugui

Chapter 166
It took a long time before the tung oil lamp in the house was extinguished, Jiazhen was exhausted, and the two fell asleep hugging each other.

The wind outside was getting stronger and stronger, making whistling noises, as if there were ghosts screaming outside, and the night was pitch black, as if someone had splashed it with ink.

"Crack!"

In the middle of the night, a pale lightning flashed across the sky suddenly, illuminating the whole world, as if God had opened his eyes.

"Boom"

Then, a deafening thunder came from deep in the clouds, as if the sky was about to collapse, and Xu Fugui sat up from the bed instantly in shock.

Because Jiazhen was too tired, she turned over in a daze, put her head on him, and muttered, "It's thundering, go to sleep."

Xu Fugui lay on the mat again, opened his eyes to see the lightning coming in from the window, his whole body was shaken suddenly, he hurriedly got up from the bed, casually grabbed his trousers and clothes and put them on his body.

"Fugui, what are you doing in the middle of the night?" Jiazhen asked.

Xu Fugui didn't turn his head back, "You continue to sleep, it's going to rain heavily, I'll go and see if the big guy's millet has been collected."

After speaking, he lifted the tung oil lamp, and just opened the door, a gust of wind mixed with sand and dust came in unceremoniously, blowing his robes.

Xu Fugui squinted his eyes, and quickly closed the door. As soon as he walked to the yard, he saw Father Xu open the door, and a worried voice came out, "Don't get the millet wet."

"Father, you're a fool, go back and lie down."

"Stinky boy, it's not your turn to teach me a lesson, go do your own thing."

Xu Fugui kept walking, and when passing by the dog house, Ping An uttered a few barks, shrank inside and did not dare to come out, probably because he was frightened by Hehe Tianwei.

Not only is it safe, the livestock in the village are all huddled in a corner, not daring to move, watching the lightning and thunder in the night sky in horror.

The wind was too strong, the night was too dark, and the tung oil lamp could not bring much light. Xu Fugui could only observe through the electric light.

Raindrops haven't fallen in the sky yet, but it's definitely coming soon. Summer thunderstorms come as soon as they are said, and there is no room for negotiation.

He walked out of the house, and just when he was about to call everyone to get up to harvest the millet, a loud noise came from the dark place, and there was still a faint light of fire.

When they got closer, they turned out to be people from the village, all of them were holding bamboo brooms and shovels, and naturally there were many baskets, with anxious expressions on their faces.

After seeing him, he froze for a moment and asked, "Secretary, why are you here?"

Xu Fugui smiled, "I think it's going to rain, I'm afraid you will confiscate the millet, so you might as well get up and have a look."

The people in the village were not stupid. They probably found out that it was going to rain before him, so they hurriedly got up to collect the millet.

"That's right. I've seen the sky. It hasn't rained in the past two days. I didn't expect it to rain suddenly. The millet is piled up on the sun-drying ground. We have to harvest it quickly. We can't let God just ruin our grain like this."

Xu Fugui didn't delay them, and walked towards the grain drying field together with them, "Let's go, hurry up, the rain might fall at any time."

The Xu family's millet was dried yesterday and placed in the barn, so it is not afraid of heavy rain.

After all, they knocked down all the millet on the first day and dried it for four or five days, which was enough time.

Other families are not as lucky as him. The millet has only been in the sun for two days, and it is about to dry, so it cannot be ruined by this heavy rain.

Although his family has no millet in the sun-drying field, Xu Fugui still came to the sun-drying field to help out. Working with multiple people, the millet could always be harvested early.

Everyone moved very quickly, but the rainstorm moved even faster. Halfway through the receipt, a pea-sized raindrop hit Xu Fugui's neck.

Others also noticed that it was starting to rain, and immediately shouted: "Hurry up, everyone, hurry up, it's raining, it's raining!"

"God of this shit day, call all the family members here, don't let the millet get wet!"

"Hurry up, the rain is getting heavier!"

Everyone was in a hurry, their faces were full of eagerness, the strong wind blew the awns on their bodies, and their bodies were itchy, and baskets of rice were placed in the house.

Soon, more and more raindrops fell, and the sound of rain came from the distant mountains and forests, and the sound of rain became louder and louder from far to near.

After a while, the torrential rain enveloped the entire Xujia Village. For more than ten seconds, Xu Fugui's whole body was soaked, and the grains left on the sun-drying field were naturally not avoided. His heart ached when he saw it.

These are grains!
But fortunately, most of the millet was collected in time, and the wet millet could not be wasted. It was put in a place alone in the rain, and when it cleared, hurry up and dry it to avoid mold.

"Secretary, let's go back, it's raining too much!" Several people came to him and shouted loudly, the rain kept falling from their faces.

Xu Fugui nodded, smeared and ran to the eaves of the house, wiped a handful of wet hair, watching the torrential rain, his heart was as calm as water.

He loves the rain, whether it's a drizzle or a downpour, he loves it all.

He likes the feeling that the rain isolates everything, and he is trapped in the house, as if his troubles are also trapped.

The rainy time seems to be his own unique time.

After staying under the eaves for a while, resisting the urge to go out and continue to soak in the rain, he turned and walked into the house.

Click!

Another flash of lightning flashed across the sky, and Xu Fugui was afraid that the lightning would split the sky, which was why he didn't dare to get in the rain.

He heard that it was easy to be struck by lightning outside on a rainy day. He didn't know if it was true or not, but he was very afraid of death now, and he wouldn't try it even if there was a chance.

Back outside, Xu Fugui took off all the wet clothes and trousers, opened the room, and Jiazhen had prepared a bucket of cold water and clean clothes for him.

"Have you finished harvesting the millet?"

Taking advantage of Xu Fugui's washing time, Jiazhen asked with concern.

"Most of them are collected."

"That's good."

Xu Fugui wiped himself off, "God has a strange temper. Every year, there are two heavy rains in the middle of the night, and each time he has to hurry to harvest the rice."

Jiazhen hissed, "Fugui, there are gods and gods standing three feet above your head, but you are not allowed to speak ill of God, have you forgotten that you met a god?"

Xu Fugui was stunned for a moment, and shut up obediently. Maybe Jiazhen was right, there is a god in his head, and maybe even his rebirth happened. Usually, he should respect God more.

Putting on their underpants and lying on the mat, the two little guys slept soundly, even though there was so much noise outside, they still didn't wake them up.

After such a commotion for a while, Xu Fugui was also sleepy, hugging Jiazhen's waist, listening to the sound of rain outside, fell into a deep sleep.

The rainstorm came and went quickly, and after Xu Fugui fell asleep for a while, the rainstorm moved to other places, leaving a mess.
