The baby sleeping soundly in her arms was still enjoying himself, but he frowned slightly in dissatisfaction.

Lin Zhiyan stepped into the room and saw Lin Yinan holding her younger sister. She stuck out her tongue shyly and then tiptoed to the bed.

Seeing the gauze wrapped around Yun Mo's waist, tears streamed down her face like broken beads.

"Dad, does it hurt a lot?"

Yun Mo raised his hand to wipe away her tears and said gently, "Father is a real man. This little injury is nothing. It doesn't hurt at all."

The little girl, Lin Zhiyan, stubbornly raised her head to look at him, stretching out her pink and tender fingers, "Daddy is lying. I was pecked by a rooster last time, and it hurt so much."

As she spoke, she moved a chair over, kicked off her shoes, climbed up and sat down, stretching her neck to blow air into Yun Mo's bandaged wound.

"Grandma said blowing on it will make it stop hurting, Yan'er, blow on it for Daddy."

"Dad, please don't get hurt again. Mom and I will be very worried."

Yun Mo glanced at Lin Yinan, then smiled and playfully pinched Lin Zhiyan's nose. "Okay, Daddy promises you."

Because Yun Mo is often away from home, Lin Zhiyan clings to him whenever he is around.

Yunmo is very patient with children, playing with them and making all sorts of straw toys.

The following day, Yunye led his men to Xihe County.

Lin Yinan instructed him to bring a large amount of homemade explosives, and if they discovered any Japanese pirate ships, they were to destroy them if they couldn't capture them.

It's a pity to destroy it, but it's better than them harassing us again and again.

During the busy farming season, the entire Longtan County is bustling with activity.

Apart from Yun Mo, who was resting due to injury, and the younger children, everyone else got out of bed.

Feeling that she was recovering well, Lin Yinan also joined in the corn-picking.

The paddy fields behind the county government office, covering more than 1,500 mu, need to be planted with rice seedlings, and the rice outside the county government office and the corn and peanuts planted in the mountains need to be harvested quickly.

At this time, the southern region has entered a monsoon climate, characterized by high temperatures and frequent rainfall.

If mature crops are not harvested in time, they will sprout or even mold and rot after a rain and a few days of exposure to the sun.

Lin Yinan followed Li Shulan, Yunmu, and others into the cornfield, carrying a burlap sack on her back.

After this period of training, she has almost fully regained her strength. Picking corn is hard work. She grips the corn stalk tightly with one hand and grabs the corn cob with the other, pulling down hard. With a "snap," a plump corn cob is broken off.

During the hottest days of summer, in a dense, airless cornfield, sweat dripped down my face and neck from under my straw hat. The sweat stung my skin as it flowed over the corn leaves, and my clothes were already soaked through.

Li Shulan rubbed her aching back and glanced at Lin Yinan, who was working hard in another row of cornfields. She had just finished her postpartum confinement and was already working so hard.

Li Shulan was heartbroken when she saw this, so she quickly grabbed a sack and went over. Seeing that her clothes were already soaked, she hurriedly advised, "Anan, you should go back first. Mother and the other aunties can peel the rest."

"Mom, there's not much left. I'll go back after I finish this row." Lin Yinan raised her sleeve to wipe her sweat and glanced at the sky.

She was shocked when she saw it.

The once clear sky had suddenly become covered with dark clouds. There was not a breath of wind in the sweltering air. The clouds piled up thicker and thicker above their heads, and soon the entire sky was as black as ink.

The torrential rain could already be seen falling from the distant mountains.

Heavy rain is coming soon!

"Mom! Tell everyone to go back quickly, it's going to rain!" Lin Yinan said, pulling Li Shulan's hand and walking out of the cornfield.

As she walked, she shouted through her breath, "Everyone hurry, it's going to rain!"

After several shouts, a crowd surged through the cornfield, and everyone began to run back.

Suddenly, a bolt of lightning streaked across the sky, and a moment later, a rumbling thunderclap came from afar.

"Hurry up! It's thundering and raining!" the villagers shouted at the same time.

Once out of the cornfield, the strong men quickly picked up carrying poles and carried the broken corn cobs back.

Even though heavy rain was coming, no one abandoned the corn they had already picked, and they hurried home, carrying or lifting it on their shoulders.

But how could a person move faster than wind, rain, thunder, and lightning?

A cool breeze blew by, and then the heavy rain pelted down on everyone.

The torrential rain quickly blurred everyone's vision. There were several large trees ahead, and people were standing under the trees taking shelter from the rain.

Lin Yinan was terrified when she saw this scene.

"Hurry up, don't stay under the tree, you'll get struck by lightning!" she shouted urgently to the people under the tree.

Some people didn't want to continue, saying, "The rain is too heavy, we can't go any further."

"No, we have to leave. We can't linger under the tree." Lin Yinan's eyes were sharp, and her voice was so cold and hard that it left no room for refusal.

Fearing punishment upon their return, the group had no choice but to leave dejectedly.

After everyone left the big tree, a magical scene unfolded.

"Crack!" A huge clap of thunder struck overhead, followed by the sound of trees falling.

Someone turned around to look and was immediately stunned.

“Thunder, thunder…” He pointed tremblingly at the fallen tree behind him, unable to utter a complete sentence for a long time.

Everyone turned around to look, and saw that the big tree they had just taken shelter from the rain had been struck by lightning and fallen to the ground, billowing black smoke.

Everyone looked at Lin Yinan following behind, their eyes filled with gratitude. It was the city lord who had saved their lives.

"Hurry up! Don't linger here."

Lin Yinan shouted, and everyone came to their senses and hurriedly quickened their pace to rush into the city.

Some timid women's legs gave way, and they fell to the ground along with their load.
