Chen Liang got up early the next morning. The heavy rain outside not only showed no sign of slowing down, but was getting heavier.
All the Li family members stayed in the main room early in the morning. Chen Liang felt uncomfortable because two female comrades kept staring at him. According to his previous temper, he would have kicked them long ago.
But Ajin said that he should not be impulsive, and that problems in a society ruled by law must be solved with brainpower.
He still has to live here, so it's better to have less trouble than more.
He simply went back to his room to sleep, just in time to accompany Cai Quancai who was lying on the kang unable to move.
Just lay there for another day.
On the third day, the village was suddenly filled with cries for help.
Chen Liang ran out with the village chief and his three sons and found out that there was a flood.
There is a big mountain in their village. This mountain used to be the village's lifeline. During the three-year famine, most people in the village relied on the wild vegetables, wild animals, tree bark, etc. on the mountain to feed themselves.
Now, it can no longer protect the village.
The flood came down from the mountain and more than a dozen households in the low-lying areas were all affected.
But this is not the end. Ning City is in the south, close to the seaside fishing village. The wind is getting stronger and stronger, the typhoon has arrived, and the flood is becoming more and more severe.
As a northerner, Chen Liang had never seen such severe wind, rain and floods, and was at a loss for a moment.
The village chief and the team leader looked like people who had experienced many storms. Although they were anxious, they directed everyone in an orderly manner to go to the higher ground on the other side to avoid this disaster first.
Chen Liang quickly returned, carried Cai Quancai on his back and ran in the direction the captain had pointed.
In the afternoon, all the villagers hid in this hill.
The village chief and the team leader were still counting the number of people when they suddenly heard someone shouting, "Er Huzi, Er Huzi is in the water! Save him! Save him!"
Almost everyone who lives near the sea knows how to swim. At this time, the young man closest to the sea jumped into the water without any hesitation.
When he came back with the child, the child's parents gratefully held the young man's hands, thanked him repeatedly, and even said that they wanted to marry their eldest daughter to him as a thank you gift.
Li Xiaohua, who was witnessing all this, suddenly had her eyes brightened.
Yes, she can do that too.
She originally thought that based on her looks, this man would take the initiative to pursue her.
But unexpectedly, he was unmoved by her.
She had hinted that she was single and could pursue him, but he was still hiding and not coming out. In that case, she could only use her own method.
She pulled her third sister-in-law over and whispered to her for a while, then slowly moved to Chen Liang's side.
Chen Liang felt someone approaching and moved aside.
He was still carrying Cai Quancai on his back. The ground was too wet, and he was so busy watching the rescuers that he didn't have time to find a place.
As soon as he turned sideways, he felt someone rushing out from beside him and jumping into the water.
Chen Liang: ?
Although I know that people here can swim, are good at water and love to play in the water.
But why jump in such heavy rain?
The next moment, I felt myself being pushed forward.
Someone pushed Cai Quancai on his back, and he lost his balance and they both fell into the water.
The people on the shore just saw someone fall in and were about to go down to rescue him when they saw two more people go down.
Another voice said nearby: "Oh, Comrade Chen is so kind to our little sister. He just jumped in to save her. He must have been so anxious that he didn't even have time to put the person down on his back."
The people around were a little confused, and many people didn't know who these two people were.
After hearing what the third brother’s wife said, I just thought it was Li Xiaohua’s boyfriend.
But looking into the water, it didn't seem like that. It seemed that this comrade didn't try to save Li Xiaohua after he went down. He just struggled to pull the male comrade on his back.
It seemed that he was not very good at swimming, so everyone turned to look in the direction of the village chief's house.
The village chief's face darkened and he glared at the third son's wife.
Even if others don't know, how could he not know what's going on?
He said to the people on the shore: "What are you still watching? Go down and save them."
Li Xiaohua struggled in the water for a long time but no one came to pick her up. Finally, she stopped shaking her hands desperately. When she could see the scene not far away clearly, she could no longer shout for help.
Because Chen Liang and Cai Quancai looked more dangerous than her.
Just then she heard her father asking someone to come down and rescue her, but she immediately refused.
How could she let another man touch her?
She swam swiftly to Chen Liang's side and wanted to hug him and swim to the shore together.
Chen Liang felt her approaching and had already sorted out what had just happened in his mind. Now she didn't seem to need anyone's help at all.
If she wasn't still soaking in the water, he really wanted to go over and kick her. What kind of idiot is she?
Li Xiaohua found that no matter how hard she pulled, she couldn't touch Chen Liang. After soaking in the water for a long time, she felt her whole body was cold.
She could only focus her attention on Cai Quancai. Chen Liang never let go of him, so she held him in her arms, which was considered physical contact with Chen Liang.
Next, everyone on the shore saw that Li Xiaohua, who was usually weak and unable to take care of herself, actually pulled two adult men to the shore effortlessly.
Everyone came forward and pulled them ashore.
As soon as they got ashore, before anyone could breathe a sigh of relief, Li Xiaohua started to make a scene: "Wuwuwu~ Dad, I can't live anymore. I just had physical contact with Chen Liang in the water. If I don't marry him, how can I live anymore?"
The people around her looked at her with disdain. It turned out that this was her idea.
But everyone will definitely support their own villagers. If this young man is a good person, they will be happy to bear witness.
The village chief's face was so gloomy that ink could drip out of it. He only knew that the young man was from the north, and had no idea where he was from or what his family situation was. Yet, his daughter was eager to use this method to confirm their relationship.
It was extremely stupid, but he couldn't ruin his daughter's act in public.
He looked at Chen Liang with embarrassment: "Comrade Chen, look at this..."
Chen Liang sneered, his eyes sweeping across the crowd before finally fixing his gaze on the village chief: "I haven't even touched the edge of this girl's clothes, yet you're saying I had physical contact with her? Are all these people blind? If you really can't get married, you can ask people on the street. I'm already engaged."
Seeing that he didn't even look at her from beginning to end, Li Xiaohua was almost going crazy.
I heard her belittle herself like that, without giving me any face, and even said that she was engaged.
She was about to run into the tree, but fortunately her sister-in-law who was supporting her stopped her quickly.
"Little sister, you can't be so depressed. If something really happens to you, what will your parents do? Don't worry, Comrade Chen is a responsible person. If he meets you, he will definitely marry you. Comrade Chen, please say something. Otherwise, what will happen if others misunderstand you as a hooligan?"
Chen Liang heard the threat in the words, and when he looked at the people around him, they all looked as if she was right.
Are they trying to force a sale?
