With bare feet and wearing a pair of shorts, Xiao Luyan was crawling on Xu Zhen's bed. He probably felt safe in Xu Zhen's arms. He let out a long breath, rubbed Xu Zhen's face, and shouted happily: "Brother !"

Xu Zhen hugged him and turned on the light. Feeling a little more at ease, he went to look outside the door again. The corridor was also dark, and the door next door was opened a small crack. Xu Zhen felt that the child might have woken up in the middle of the night and could not see. He got out of bed and opened the door to look for him.

This little brat was getting more and more courageous, Xu Zhen pinched his ass: "Say, why don't you sleep well and run around?"

Little Lu Yan turned four years old in September this year. He was chubby, not tall, but he had a lot of meat. The child slipped into Xu Zhen's arms and said vaguely in his arms: "It's all right. Run, be afraid, find brother."

Xu Zhen's heart softened all of a sudden, and he carried the child back to the bed. The child finally felt at ease lying on his brother's small bed, and said, "Sleep, sleep with Yanyan."

Xu Zhen covered the two of them with a quilt, kissed him on the forehead, and said softly: "Okay, sleep together, brother sleeps with Yanyan, don't be afraid."

The child gave an "um" sound, hugged Xu Zhen's arm and fell asleep after a while.

Xu Zhen pulled out the arm that was held by the child, and passed it from the neck to wrap it around, so that Xiao Lu Yan was in his arms. The warm and heavy feeling made Xu Zhen feel at ease.Drowsily fell asleep again.

The next morning, the sky was not clear yet. When Xu Zhen woke up, Mother Xu had already returned and was cooking breakfast in the kitchen. Mother Xu's eyes were black and her face was haggard. Water was still dripping from the raincoat at the door, obviously she had just returned not long ago.

Xu Zhen didn't see Dad Xu, and asked his mother, "Where's Dad? Why didn't Dad come back?"

Xu's mother cooked porridge and said, "Your father and other uncles are still protecting the dam at the dam, and we can't come back until the rain stops."

Xu Zhen nodded, and blew cold porridge to feed Xiao Lu Yan. Yesterday the school was temporarily notified to suspend classes. When the rain stopped, he was in class. Xu Zhen had nothing to do and played with Lu Yan at home.

Xu's mother made breakfast and hurried away with the thermos bucket. Several households on the first floor of their community have been flooded. If the rain doesn't stop, it will be troublesome. Several low-lying communities are ready to transfer at any time.

Xu's father was on the front line of danger, and Xu Zhen, a ten-year-old child, was alone at home. Xu's mother was worried, running back and forth, exhausted physically and mentally.Fortunately, Xu Zhen has been quite sensible during this time, and the old people on both sides asked someone to bring them a message saying that everything about them is fine, so that they don't have to worry about it.

Mother Xu can relax a little bit.

In the past few days, almost all the people in Ningbei City are praying for the rain to stop and stop it.But heaven often fails to fulfill people's wishes. They don't give when they need it, and give it endlessly when they don't need it.

On the third day, it seemed that God heard people's prayers, and the rain slowed down, from pouring rain to light rain to drizzle, and it stopped at noon. Although there was still no sun, at least it was not raining.

People were overwhelmed with surprise. The few buildings on the first floor with slightly sunken terrain hurriedly used small buckets to wash out the water from their homes, and some people took advantage of the rare rainless time to go to the market to buy vegetables.

The men on the embankment who hadn't closed their eyes for several days breathed a sigh of relief. A small man sat down on the steps along the river, regardless of whether there was water: "It finally stopped. Water has entered, but luckily it was discovered in time, otherwise the newly laid floor would be soaked."

The other answered: "We're okay here. My mother lives in a bungalow in the suburbs. I heard that the water there has reached the kang, and the house is in a mess. Damn they have all moved to the village primary school."

"What's the matter if the house is washed away, the Sun shopkeeper in Sunjia Village in our town knows it? A big fish farmer, I heard that the fish ponds have been washed away, and the direct loss is hundreds of thousands."

"It's lucky that people are fine, and they can earn money and so on."

People gossiped in a hurry, and their hearts relaxed a lot.

Xu's father also breathed a sigh of relief, planning to take a day off tomorrow morning to visit his mother-in-law's natal house at noon, help tidy up the house, send some vegetables, and return to his parents' place the next morning to make sure that the elderly on both sides are fine. Only when the heart can truly let go.

But Xu's father let out a sigh of relief a little too early.God only gave two hours for everyone to relax. At around [-]:[-] in the afternoon, with a flash of lightning in the distance, the drizzle started again, and the rain suddenly became heavier after [-]:[-].

Everyone's hearts sank again, the government compound was brightly lit, and finally accompanied by a sigh and a low voice: "Notice transfer!"

Ning Beicheng began to get busy.

When the transfer was notified, Mother Xu was rushing home from Father Xu's house. Xu Zhen was at home by herself, with flashlights shining everywhere. It's easy to tell.

Xu's mother accidentally stepped into a metal trash can in the water, and her ankle hurt so badly that she couldn't even stand up. Fortunately, a little soldier next to her helped her: "Elder sister, be careful, Are you okay?"

Mother Xu tried to move and pushed him away: "Thank you, it's okay."

There were people everywhere, and the soldiers who rescued the elderly and children happened to meet one or two people they knew. Mama Xu yelled and asked about the situation at home. For an older child, she must go back quickly.

My heart was already flying, but I couldn't move forward. The more anxious I was, the more chaotic I became. Mother Xu stepped into the air and fell into the water, rolling all over with mud and water. Mother Xu gritted her teeth and stood up. A little soldier supported her, bent down and checked her feet: "Eldest sister, you can't walk anymore, your foot may have hurt a bone, it's very dangerous to walk like this."

Then the little soldier pointed and shouted: "Over there, we have a temporary rescue site over there, I will take you there."

Mother Xu: "No, my child is still at home, I have to go back."

The little soldier wiped his face and shouted: "What's the matter with you? Don't talk about looking for your child, even you are in danger."

Xu's mother didn't speak anymore. She saved her strength and went home. The little soldier chased her two steps: "Elder sister, give me your home address, and I promise to bring your child out safely."

Knowing that Xu's house is on the third floor, the little soldier comforted her: "Sister, don't worry, the third floor is still safe for the time being, we already have comrades in arms to pick him up, maybe you will run in vain when you go back, waiting for you to work hard to get home At that time, your child may have been sent to the resettlement site by my comrades in arms."

Xu's mother couldn't stand because of the pain in her feet. She knew that the little soldier was telling the truth, so she had to go to the resettlement place first when she was in a hurry.

Sure enough, she saw a lot of acquaintances there, and Mother Xu also saw Zheng Yuanrong who was also anxious. The two looked at each other, regardless of previous suspicions, and at the same time: "Are frame frames and Yanyan (Chang Chang) with you?"
