Married a scholar

▍Hail.

There are rumors everywhere in the village, and there are always some people who don't have good intentions.

In this scorching heat, God did not see any rain, everyone was anxious, and the anger was increasing day by day, and there was a burst of crackling flames burning when there was a little trouble.

The food in my own land is uneven, high and low.However, some people's fields are obviously planted later, but they come from behind, and the grains are full.

Everyone is worried about the difficulty of harvesting in their own fields this year, but some people have so much food in their homes that it makes people jealous.

The unseen potatoes have a frighteningly high yield.

Those rice, wheat, rapeseed, corn, etc. that can be seen to have a good harvest even if they are harvested in advance, make many people envious, and many people are secretly jealous.

Why?

Everyone has the same species. How can your family grow more than us?

We are all worried that there will be no food this autumn, but your house is full of grain.

Many people distinguish between right and wrong, but there are also many people who don't know right from wrong.

If you are not good at home, you can only expect others to feel at ease in the same way as yourself.

Meng Yining was busy getting people to harvest the grain so that all the grain in the field could be recovered before the hail came.

Although Xia Wenze said that they had already said what they should say, he still went to tell the village chief again.

It's just that the village head can't help it. As the head of a village, he knows more than others, so he is naturally worried.

But some people don't want to listen to it, and secretly say something that they don't know what to say, what can he do?

Meng Yining fanned the wind with a cattail fan, looking at the rice and wheat drying on the ground. "Let everyone work harder these few nights, and I will give you more money then."

It was too hot during the day, and he was afraid that everyone would suffer from heat stroke, so he had to light a torch and let people harvest the grain at night. During the day, the harvested rice and wheat should be dried in the sun, and they worked in two shifts. To prevent the returned grain from being piled up in the warehouse and spoiled like that.

Brother Yi responded, "Don't worry, young master, my brother is watching."

"Yeah." Meng Yining looked up at Xia Wenze who came in, and seeing his expression, he shook his head, "Come and drink a glass of mint water to relieve the heat."

Xia Wenze sat down on the small stool beside him, took the mint water handed over by Brother Xing and drank it in one gulp, and the anger in his heart seemed to subside a little. "It doesn't matter, it's useless to talk about it, my uncle. I heard a lot on the way back." Thinking of what those people said, Xia Wenze only felt that his heart, which was still a little hot, had cooled down in the scorching heat. "I should have known."

Meng Yining also knew the rumors in the village these two days, he didn't feel anything serious, and he didn't get angry after hearing it, "It's good to understand, not everyone in the village is like this, look at those families with elderly people , Didn’t they listen to the words of the village chief and they are already rushing to collect food? There are only a few companies who say those sour words, and they all have some festivals with us. These people’s words, let’s forget it, if you really remember it In my heart, I was just being stupid."

Whether it is before the end of the world or after the end of the world, he has heard these remarks too much.

The opinions of these people in the village are so good, but there are only a dozen of them, and they can't afford to talk about it, and they dare not speak in front of him.

It is true that there is no need to be angry.

"I know." Xia Wenze took the cattail fan in his hand and shook it, most of the wind went to Meng Yining, "The grain in the field is almost finished."

"Well, just these two days." Meng Yining asked Brother Xing and Brother Yi to go to work. Seeing that they had left, he said to him: "This hailstorm is a bit big, and it will last a long time. There are some hailstorms in the village. I am afraid that the houses of several families will not be able to bear it."

There are several houses in the village with thatched roofs. With the combination of hail and rain, the houses may disappear.It's okay if the house is gone, but I'm afraid that even people will be injured when the time comes.

Xia Wenze nodded, and was also a little worried, "I also told my uncle about this. I said that I was afraid that there would be too many locusts, and some people's roofs might be eaten by locusts as food. Let my uncle see if it's right first. Arrange people to live in their relatives' homes, or arrange them to live in the school."

The school in the village was well built. After all, it was the hope of the entire Shangyao Village, so naturally the school would not be built in a crude way.

"What did Uncle Si say?" Meng Yining didn't expect Xia Wenze to go with him.

"Si Bo said it's not easy to arrange this, because I don't know when the locust plague will come, so it's not easy to let people move in now, and the school is still open." it's too late.Hail is not rain, who can risk running around under hail?

Meng Yining looked at the grain drying in the yard, "Don't worry too much. If the hailstorm is really big, everyone will find a safe place to hide." At worst, hide under the bed, and the current bed is not like the world Most of the beds are close to the ground.The beds here all have bed bottoms, so it's no problem to hide three or four people casually.

After three tense days, Meng Yining had a large family, everyone was fast, and they harvested the grain without hesitation.Working in two shifts, busy day and night, it can be regarded as harvesting all the grain in the field.

There was no shortage of gossip in the village, and those who should be obedient did not stop.

The village chief has nothing to do with those who are disobedient, and he can't control gossip now.Their family is also busy harvesting the grain in the field.I'm afraid that the locust plague from the south will come here.

This morning, the sun that should have appeared earlier seemed to have disappeared, and the clear blue sky was covered by a thick layer of dark clouds.

The weather should be joyful, but it made many people's faces full of dignity and panic.

"Is it going to rain?"

"It seems to be, and the rain is not small."

Under the eaves, the people who were called back by Meng Yining and Xia Wenze to stay there were all staring at the dark clouds in the sky that could not be dissolved like ink.

In the village, people were panic-stricken, and many people hurriedly called their families to go to the field to collect grain, and some people were about to cry.

Thousands of prayers and thousands of prayers that this rain will not fall, and even if it does, it must be light.

But those with elderly people are full of worry. With such thick dark clouds, how can this rain be light?

God will not give you a way out! !

Some people were so anxious that they wanted to cry, while others were very happy.

"Thanks to what we heard from the village chief, we were afraid of locust plagues and rushed to harvest the food in the past few days. The locust plague did not come, but this heavy rain ushered in."

"Some people don't listen, and I'm afraid they're going to cry to death right now."

The old man scolded at the side: "Shut up if you are gloating." They are all peasants and belong to the same village. Could this kind of natural disaster be a time for jokes?

The young man shut up resentfully.

The village chief looked at the grain piled in the main room with a sad face, smoking non-stop.

The village chief's wife glanced aside, "What are you worried about? This locust plague has not come, and the heavy rain is coming. If they had listened to you and followed us to harvest food, it would be the situation now."

If it wasn't inappropriate, the village chief's daughter-in-law would want to scold her a few words.

In the past two or three days, it was almost like talking nonsense, but some people didn't listen, didn't listen and didn't talk, and wanted to gossip there, "Look at the words of those bastards in those days, brother Ning Kid Ze Ze’s family’s grain harvest is good, so I can’t see it, I’m so jealous, I can’t wait to let others take out the grain that has been taken back and distribute it to them.”

The village chief's wife spat, "Look, God has dealt with them." She couldn't hold back her curse. "Brother Ning went to Daqing Mountain several times, luckily he found new food, and tried planting it himself regardless of gains or losses, so he gave it to everyone as seeds for free, and finally received [-]% which was too much. I wish it would be free."

Why?

Although the two sons of the village chief didn't speak, the look on Guan's face was also very disdainful towards those people.

Xia Sheng looked at his daughter-in-law, "Have you collected all the food from Mother's side?" When his father informed the village, he asked his daughter-in-law to go back and tell his father-in-law.

Xia Sheng's daughter-in-law nodded happily, "It's accepted."

The village head's house is just a microcosm of Shangyao Village and even the surrounding villages.

Faced with this sudden and belated rain, many people were panic-stricken.

Before the rain came down, some people called their families to rush down to the fields to grab grain, harvest as much as they could, regardless of whether it was cooked or not.

It's better than being wiped out by the rain.

"Boom" thunder was accompanied by lightning that would split the sky in half, scaring the children into crying and shaking everyone's faces in a daze.

"Crackling." After the thunder and lightning, there was a torrential rain, and in the rainstorm, there were also hailstones of various sizes.

"God, this is not letting people live."

There was a cry, accompanied by deep despair over the villages, accompanied by heavy rain and hail.

Meng Yining sighed inwardly when he heard the crackling sound on the roof even though it was blocked by straw thatch.

But He Guanshi and the others were very grateful in their hearts, "The rain is heavy, and the hail is also heavy." Thinking that there are still some people in the village who are unwilling to collect grain early, they can't help sighing, "I'm afraid this year will be difficult."

Not only Shangyao Village, but the entire southern Anhui provincial government was in desperation to meet the sudden rainstorm and hail.

Meng Yining looked at the silent Xia Wenze, "Has your family collected food yet?"

"Accepted, my second brother forced me to accept it." Xia Wenze twitched the corners of his lips, "This time they are really good." Otherwise, I'm afraid they will cry to death like those disobedient people. "I'm afraid it will be confiscated by the Meng family." Even if the eldest son is lost, the uncle of the Meng family is still stealing and playing tricks. The second son is working in the town, and the family's field depends on Meng Yiyan, who has never worked before. For Mr. Meng and his wife, let alone rush to harvest the grain, even if they are allowed to harvest it slowly, it may take ten and a half months to harvest the grain in the field.

Meng Yining stared at the hail that fell on the ground outside the door, "This time the disaster is too great." As for the Meng family, he will not go out of his way to help. He will do what the Meng family arranges.What's more, Meng's family is not at the end of the mountain, there should be food in the cellar at home, and his third uncle is there, so they won't starve to death.

"Yes." Xia Wenze also looked at the hailstones outside the courtyard, "I hope the disaster relief will be timely." Otherwise, there may be troubles.
