The waterwheel is so high. If you fall from it and hit your head or something else and then fall into the water, it is hard to say whether you will live or die!
Jiang, who was standing by, collapsed when she heard this.
Only then did she understand what Wang Dalong meant when he said he would let her see it tonight.
But now, before he could see the good show, he fell into the river.
Jiang's knees kept getting weaker and weaker, and she felt her stomach getting heavier and heavier. Finally, she collapsed to the ground and could no longer support herself.
Now the two children in the family are still young, and the baby in the belly is still a few months away from being born. If something happens to Wang Dalong, how will they live in the future?
Thinking of this, Jiang couldn't help but burst into tears.
Widow Liu cursed with a sullen face, "Why are you crying? My son is definitely safe and sound. Stop crying like that!"
Jiang's crying stopped abruptly, but she couldn't help sobbing from time to time.
The villagers who were searching for someone along the river bank had already walked a long way away, and even the torches they were holding had shrunk to the point where only a tiny dot emitting a faint light could be seen.
The villagers searched the riverside all night but couldn't find Wang Dalong.
Seeing that the sky was about to get dry, everyone was exhausted and had to re-tie the torches in their hands several times.
So everyone retreated one after another, all tired and hungry, sitting down on the grass by the shore in a completely ungraceful manner.
Wang Guangping also stayed up all night by the river and was now yawning one after another.
Jiang had already cried all her tears dry by this time. She sat aside with her hands on her stomach and lifeless eyes, looking completely disheartened.
Widow Liu also felt that her son was in great danger, but since she hadn't seen the body, she still had a glimmer of hope in her heart.
At this time, Wang Dahu had already sat under a big tree by the river, leaning against the trunk and snoring.
When Wan Guangping saw the look on the face of the family of three, he couldn't help but shake his head.
So many people in the village had been busy all night, but the people in Widow Liu's family didn't even bother to prepare some food and drinks for everyone to replenish their energy.
Who would be willing to continue looking for your family like this?
Wang Guangping couldn't help thinking that although they were both widows, Widow Liu was far inferior to Old Lady Ye in terms of being a human being.
But he was just thinking about it in his mind.
Wang Guangping was about to step forward to remind Widow Liu and ask her to at least show some respect.
Otherwise, even as the village chief, he would be embarrassed to order everyone to go hungry and continue to help find someone.
Just at this time, it was Ye Qingyuan's turn to use the water truck to irrigate the fields, and he came to work early.
The people Wang Dahu called last night were all villagers with the surname Wang, so Ye Qingyuan had no idea that Wang Dalong had fallen into the river.
He had breakfast at home and strolled over here, preparing to start work early.
Suddenly seeing so many people gathered by the river, he was so scared that he stopped immediately.
Ye Qingyuan glanced around and found Wang Guangping among them. He hurried forward and asked, "Village Chief? Why are there so many people by the river so early in the morning? What happened?"
Wang Guangping was feeling upset, and upon hearing this, he immediately asked, "What are you doing here by the river?"
"I, I'm here to water the fields with the waterwheel..." Ye Qingyuan was confused by Wang Guangping's question and said hesitantly, "What's wrong, Village Chief? Could it be that the waterwheel is broken again?"
After hearing Ye Qingyuan's words, Wang Guangping remembered that the villagers still needed to water the fields, and hurriedly said, "The waterwheel is not broken, you can use it..."
Before he finished speaking, his heart skipped a beat.
Riverside!
Waterwheel!
In the middle of the night!
Wang brothers!
Fall into the water!
These things seem to be fine when viewed individually.
But if you put them all together...
Thinking of this, Wang Guangping suddenly turned his head to look at the waterwheel by the river.
He moved so violently that he almost twisted his neck.
"Village chief, what are you looking at?" Ye Qingyuan asked puzzledly.
Seeing the axe still stuck in the waterwheel, Wang Guangping felt dizzy and his vision went dark.
Ye Qingyuan was startled and quickly stepped forward to support Wang Guangping and asked, "Village Chief, please don't scare me. At worst, I can just stop using the water truck. Can't I just fetch water myself?"
Wang Guangping no longer cared about Ye Qingyuan. He pointed at the big tree on the shore with a trembling hand and said, "You, you help me over."
Ye Qingyuan thought Wang Guangping wanted to go over and rest, so he quickly helped him over.
Wang Guangping came under the tree and kicked Wang Dahu in the waist.
"You two bastards, I knew that coming to the riverside so late at night was no good!
"I even stayed up all night with some people to help your family find Wang Dalong?
"Bah, what the hell! He's done so many bad things, he deserves to fall into the river!
"Let's go home and stop looking!"
