Chapter 48 Joining the Army

The flood was so severe that the aftermath work lasted for half a month.

After all the disaster victims were properly resettled, the county government compiled the loss reports submitted.

Thanks to the timely response, the losses in the entire county were almost negligible.

Not only was the rice harvested ahead of schedule, but even the staff were evacuated ahead of schedule.

Apart from some property losses, no deaths were reported in the entire county.

Such political achievements are extremely dazzling wherever they are.

"Thanks to Comrade Shen He, if he hadn't called in the provincial meteorological expert, how could we have avoided this disaster?"

The county party secretary said excitedly.

"Comrade Shen He's warning did play a crucial role, but if it weren't for your decisive decision, we wouldn't be able to cooperate so well."

The secretary of the Red Flag Commune also had a rosy face.

This achievement in flood control and disaster relief directly added glory to their official careers.

The people in the team below don't know what a career in politics is.

They managed to save their food and their lives from the flood, and they were all very excited.

When they found out that all this was because Su Ranran noticed something was wrong with the weather and Shen He invited meteorologists to come down and they successfully escaped disaster, everyone who was already grateful to them wanted to kill the couple. Offer it up!

Ever since the flood, Shen He and Su Ranran have been warmly greeted by the villagers whenever they go out.

Upon learning that Su Ranran was pregnant, the villagers came up with various ways to send her eggs, fish and shrimps.

This was an honor that Su Ranran had never received in her previous life. She had never expected that she would win everyone's favor just by helping her man do it.

No one in the village spread the rumor that she had been abused anymore.

If anyone dared to mention it, the villagers would scold that person to death without the Shen family stepping in.

These two people are their lifesavers!

During this flood, the two men rescued the villagers wholeheartedly. Now they turn around and speak ill of them. Are they still human beings?

The houses in the village that were not seriously damaged were mostly repaired by people sent by the county.

Only the Li family's house was completely turned into charcoal and could not be repaired at all.

It is worth mentioning that, except for Li Xueqiu, all other members of the Li family were released on the third day after the flood.

This is understandable. After all, it was Li Xueqiu who brought the things back. At most, they just ate the meat. It was not a crime worthy of being locked up.

However, Wang Fulai received a lot of benefits from Li Xueqiu, and although he led the villagers of Shuiqiao Brigade to successfully avoid the flood, he still could not escape the fate of being dismissed.

The villagers voted for the new captain and finally unanimously decided to elect Shen Guoyao.

Wang Fulai survived the disaster and did not dare to say a word of no.

Although his superiors did not explicitly state it, the reason he was spared labor reform was probably because of his proper handling of the flood.

The Li family members who were released looked at their "home" which had turned into a pile of charcoal, and they all sat down on the ground in paralysis.

Clearly, not long ago they were the envy of everyone in the team, but in the blink of an eye, not only was Li Xueqiu thrown into prison, but even the brick and tile house that they once took so much pride in was reduced to ruins.

The wealthy life of the past year was like a mirrored flower and water moon. In the blink of an eye, the dream was shattered.

What made the Li family even more unbearable was that Luo Huarong was caught stealing someone while hiding from a rainstorm.

Li Jianjun, a tall and strong man, was hit one after another and he felt a little unwell.

He kept saying “it’s not true”, “I want to find my little sister”, “my little sister is obviously a fairy, how can you treat her like this?”

Seeing him mumbling to himself, the villagers couldn't help but feel sympathy for this cuckolded man.

The Li family returned, but the family was broken up.

Zhao Meifang and the second son's wife couldn't stand Luo Huarong's reputation as an adulterer, and they both wanted to split up the family business.

Liu Guimei, who once had the final say at home, was pushed back and forth by her two daughters-in-law, and neither of them was willing to live with her.

In the end, Liu Guimei had no choice but to follow her crazy third son.

The farce of the Li family's separation became the topic of conversation in the team after dinner. While dealing with post-disaster work, everyone pointed fingers at the Li family.

When they learned that Li Xueqiu had also gone crazy and was directly put into a mental hospital, everyone sighed.

Everyone sighed, thinking that they must have done something immoral in secret, and that was why they were punished by God.

Su Ranran didn't care about the Li family's affairs. At this moment, she was looking at the doctor in front of her with a nervous face.

"Doctor, how is my wife?"

Shen He's usually calm voice now sounded a little tense, and his eyes were fixed on the doctor who was taking his pulse.

The doctor treating Su Ranran was still the same doctor Liu Haixia from last time.

She was deeply impressed by the couple. The husband was tall and big, with a serious face and a somewhat stern look.

His wife, who was originally very thin, became radiant after more than 20 days of treatment.

He is completely different from when we first met.

One was a skinny little poor boy, the other was a charming and attractive beauty. If it weren't for the red mole on her hand, she would never have believed that they were the same person.

"Doctor, am I fit for long-distance car rides?" Seeing that she hadn't said anything, Su Ranran was so nervous that her hands were sweaty.

A pair of watery eyes staring at you so eagerly, making you reluctant to embarrass her.

Liu Haixia didn't let her wait too long. She took back her hand and said to her with a smile, "You are in good health and can take a long car ride. Just be careful not to get tired or bumped."

Hearing this, Su Ranran's eyes lit up and she looked at Shen He with joy.

"Did you hear that? The doctor said I can go!"

As if having something to rely on, the pink little face was half tilted up proudly, with a smug look on its face.

Looking at her cute and adorable appearance, Shen He's heart softened incredibly.

“Yes.”

The slightly raised corners of his lips softened his stern facial lines. He was obviously a stern man, but at this moment he turned into a gentle and soft person.

Obviously, the two of them didn't say anything and didn't do anything, but Liu Haixia couldn't help blushing, feeling like she had disturbed the young couple.

Fortunately, the two of them didn't stay long. The female comrade thanked her and happily led the man out.

After leaving the hospital, Su Ranran couldn't wait to say to Shen He, "Go and report to the army."

She was afraid she would have to wait too long.

Meeting the woman's eyes that were as bright as stars, Shen He's heart couldn't help but skip a beat.

The scene from his previous dream flashed through his mind again. The woman was just like she was now, flirting with him tenderly and asking him to report to the troops as soon as possible.

That impatient little look is exactly the same as it is now.

Unable to help, Shen He rubbed her little head.

"It's already been done."
