Chapter 34

Twenty acres seems like a lot, and it’s not very big to put these little ones in. If we need to rescue others in the future, we’ll need a bigger space.

You can't rush this matter. You don't have much money on hand. It seems that if you want to find a way to make money, you have to open up a free sky.

Just as she was thinking about the future in her mind, Zhuang Shi called her in the courtyard after cooking.

She put the small iron in the box and sat at the table on the ground.

Zhuang Shi laid out the food and introduced it: "Twice-cooked pork, scrambled eggs with leeks, vegetarian water spinach, vegetarian loofah, rice porridge, and steamed buns."

She picked up her chopsticks and ate, and Zhuang Dashan and his wife also sat down.

Xiang secretly rolled her eyes at Qin Yue and cursed in her heart:

"Bah, what is it? What's wrong with cooking? She has to wait for her son to cook it. Who do you think she is? It's just a piece of junk that others don't want. She works as a cow and a horse in the Yang family, running around to show off her authority and blessings. Humph! "

Qin Yue suddenly raised her head, glanced at Xiang briefly, then looked at Zhuang Shi and said.

"My meals will be delivered to my house from now on."

"Oh!"

Both father and son glanced at Xiang at the same time. Did she do something again? Otherwise, how could Qin say this?

Just as Xiang was about to speak, she saw her husband and son staring at her and immediately shut up.

Are you really like the eldest lady?Did she feel wronged by dining with them?He would call her son around, which would make her mad to death.

At night, when the Yang family went to their room, a large family gathered together, except for the Huang family.

Old Man Yang knocked the pot of his pipe, put on a pinch of cigarette powder, lit it, took two puffs, and then asked:
"Shaohua, how is your situation?"

Yang Shaohua sighed softly: "I will go on duty after autumn."

"Oh? Doesn't it sound like a good job?"

"Court Records"

"It doesn't sound like there's much to gain?"

"The Huang family said they would let him work for now and then replace him when there is a vacancy."

"You are a scholar, why do you have to be a master?"

"The county magistrate has a master by his side, and the master has a strong backing and is immovable. Don't be anxious. If you can work in the Yamen, you will have the opportunity to get to know the master."

Yang Zhou curled her lips and said dissatisfied: "I think the Huang family doesn't value you at all, and they are reluctant to do such a job, ah!"

"Mom, don't talk nonsense about this. Although my father-in-law is a smiling tiger, he does hold a grudge behind his back. If he knows that you arranged him like this, he will definitely take revenge on you."

Mrs. Zhou snorted softly: "Does he still dare to kill me? I am his in-laws."

"In-laws? In his eyes, he is just like ordinary people. He is a businessman. If you are useful, he will value you. If you are useless, he will not care if you are trampled to death."

After hearing this, Ms. Zhou knew she was afraid. She revealed the matter and mentioned Mr. Qin again.

"Today I saw that damn woman from the Xiang family actually bought jewelry. My mother doesn't even have it. Why should she have it? It was the money from that shameless bitch from the Qin family. Shaohua, tell me, how much does my mother feel?" Feeling uncomfortable?"

"When my son realizes his value, I will buy you a complete set later. It will be even better than hers."

Zhou's eyes lit up, "Really?"

"I'm not going to lie to you, my son will personally take you to the jewelry pavilion in the county to choose."

"It's better for my third son. Just look at them and you'll know that I'm asking for them."

After saying that, he gave the other two rooms a blank look and immediately became angry after seeing Qingyun Qingting.

"If you two have nothing to do, go and find Mrs. Qin. Even if she is determined not to want you, after all, it is the meat that fell from her body. If you grind it a few more times and get the money, you can't give the dealer an advantage."

The brother and sister looked at each other, then nodded to Zhou.

"Yes, grandmother."

In the second half of the night, God changed his face, the wind blew violently, loud thunder sounded in the distance, and lightning followed closely.

People woke up from their sleep, shaking.

Some dared to open the window and looked up at the sky with frightened eyes.

The banker and his son got up from the kang and ran outside to collect clothes, tables and chairs, and dried vegetables.

Qin Yue was also awakened and saw the big yellow and little leopard in her room. They were trembling all over, but they were still protecting their children tightly.

"Don't be afraid, don't be afraid,"

After saying that, he got off the kang, opened the door, and faced a strong wind carrying dirt.Zhuang Shi waved to her, "Go back to the house quickly, it's going to rain heavily."

Qin Yue looked up at the sky. Black clouds from the south were coming straight towards her. The moon and stars were gradually blocked. Wasn't it raining hard?

"Stone, is the roof strong?"

"Don't worry, I will reinforce it no matter what year. As long as it doesn't rain heavily, it should be fine."

Qin Yue showed an ugly smile. No matter how strong she was, no matter how much space she had, she was still so small in the face of natural disasters.

Just as I was thinking about it, heavy raindrops began to fall.

Then the raindrops became denser, forming a rain curtain in an instant, so big that even the houses opposite could not be seen clearly.

She returned to the house, lit a candle, took out a book and read.

At this time, the door of the room rang, "Qin Yue, can I come in?"

"come in!"

Zhuang Shi rushed in. He took off his raincoat, put the little eagle in his arms on the top of the cabinet, and then gave her a silly smile.

"Dad asked me to accompany you. Women are usually afraid of weather like this."

"They need you more."

"It doesn't matter, I'll take care of both."

"Sit down and read a book?"

"Look!"

Qin Yue took out a book from under the table and handed it to him, "You started from the simplest way of reading and recognizing words, and now you are doing very well."

"It's all because of your good teaching."

"Before the end of the year, I will try to read the historical records and write an article about my experience."

"Yes!"

After saying that, both of them stopped humming and read the book silently.

The eaglets are on the top of the cabinet, looking down high. In a month, their feathers have become plump and they can fly around the house, but they still can't fly high in the air.

With them, Big Yellow and Little Leopard were no longer nervous. Their eyes moved back and forth with Little Eagle, and the room became more vivid.

The rain was falling heavily and showed no sign of abating.

Half an hour later, Zhuang Shi stood up, opened the door, took a look, and immediately screamed.

"Qin Yue, water is coming into the house."

Qin Yue took a long breath. Not long after crossing, she had to face the flood. It was really a test for her.

"Go, tell your parents, put all the clothes and covers on the top of the wardrobe, and put all the edible items in the kitchen at a high place, especially the grain. Don't worry about the cows. The water shouldn't flood it, and the chickens won't get it either. Up high, nothing else.”

"Yes!"

Zhuang Shi rushed out of the room, and Qin Yue stood up and put all the bedding and clothes in her room into the space.

She put the wooden box on the kang and put the furry children inside.

"Stay inside and don't run around. I will protect you."

With Qin Yue's words, they all calmed down, nestled inside and closed their eyes to sleep.

The paper on the window was soaked. After a while, the paper tore, and the rain whistled in. Qin Yue took out a piece of coarse cloth and nailed it to the window.

Just as he was about to go to the ground, water had already flooded into the house.

Going up to the room, Xiang's scream came out, "Stone, stone?"

Zhuang Dashan cursed angrily, "Why are you shouting? My son is cleaning up in the kitchen."

"There's water in the house. Our house and the kang are both made of earth. What if it collapses?"

"Aren't you afraid of death? Didn't you say that even if you die, you won't be a drag on your son?"

"I, I just said it out of anger. Who doesn't want to live?"

"Stay still. If the sky falls, I will support you. Don't cause trouble to the children."

Zhuang Dashan moved his clothes and bedding to the bottom of the cabinet. He got on the kang with his bare feet, wiped them with a cloth sheet, and looked outside worriedly.
