Chen Chen roasted the pheasant he had just caught last night and sent it to her. According to her routine, she would return it today.
So at this time, Chen Chen was lying on the wall of his house waiting for someone to come.
Sure enough, he waited for less than an hour before a brisk and lively figure appeared on the road.
She was wearing a green blazer, with her long black hair hanging down. She was holding a bag in one hand and wild flowers picked from the roadside in the other.
He was in a good mood and hummed songs, jumping up and down from time to time when he was happy.
Xu Miaomiao walked to the door of Chen's house, knocked as usual, turned around and was about to run.
"Ah!" As Xu Miaomiao turned around, a person jumped down in front of her. She was so scared that she dropped the flowers in her hand. She turned around and was about to run, but was pulled back by someone.
Xu Miaomiao recovered and angrily kicked him on the calf, "What are you doing? Do you know that scaring people can kill them?"
Chen Chen didn't respond, but just held her arm stubbornly, staring at her with dark eyes.
Xu Miaomiao felt a little uncomfortable being stared at by him and asked, "What are you doing?"
Chen Chen frowned, looking confused. "Why did you send all the things back?"
Seeing that the problem had returned to the starting point, Xu Miaomiao asked softly, "Chen Chen, who are you to me? Why should I accept your things?"
Chen Chen seemed lost in thought as he muttered, "I just want to be good to you! Why are you forcing me?"
Xu Miaomiao took a step forward and whispered in his ear, "Chen Chen, if you want to be nice to me, you have to have a legitimate identity. Do you want to be my partner?"
Chen Chen seemed to be awakened by her words. He quickly let go and took several steps back, muttering "No, no!"
Seeing him like this, Xu Miaomiao also frowned and said coldly, "If you are not my partner, you have no right to control me, and I will not accept your kindness!"
Chen Chen didn't respond for a long time, with his head down. When he raised his head again, his eyes were red, filled with suppressed emotions.
Because of suppressed emotions, he pursed his lips and the veins on his neck stood out.
Looking at Xu Miaomiao, he asked with some pain, "I just want to watch you from afar, and take care of you from afar."
He frowned, his eyes sparkling with tears, as if he could not bear the weight of tears, and asked in a hoarse voice.
"Why do you have to push me? Why do you push me?"
Xu Miaomiao clenched her fists, her nails digging into the soft flesh of her palms. She relied on the pain to stay calm, trying not to feel heartbroken as she went up to hug him and promised him that she would not force him anymore.
Xu Miaomiao was afraid that she would not be able to bear to look at him any longer, so she simply lowered her head and didn't look at him, her voice sounding a little helpless.
"I don't know why you insist on pushing me away, but I only accept the good in my partner. You can do whatever you want."
Xu Miaomiao was afraid that if she stayed any longer she would lose control of her tears, so she simply turned around and left quickly.
Ever since we met that day, I don’t know what he was thinking, but he hasn’t come to deliver anything for three days.
Xu Miaomiao was not in a hurry, because this person could only be hers and could not run away.
It is already the end of July and the rainy season has arrived. It has been raining for two days.
The rainfall was quite heavy. The water level of the river at the entrance of the village rose a lot and was almost flooding the crops.
Chen Jianghe stood at the doorway, watching the incessant rain outside, and said worriedly, "Why is it raining so heavily this year? If it keeps raining, the crops in the fields will be ruined!"
The Northeast is different from the South, where people can grow two crops a year. Due to the climate, there is only one spring plowing in the Northeast each year.
If this heavy rain floods the newly grown crops, the year's harvest will be ruined and there will be no time to replant.
Crops are the lifeblood of rural families. Wang Yan was also a little worried. "Well, I haven't seen such heavy rain in many years."
Because of the heavy rain, everyone in the village stayed at home.
Chen Jianghe was still wondering what would happen to the grain he had to hand in if there was a disaster this year. Could the tax be reduced or exempted?
At this time, a man ran in from outside in the rain, without even an umbrella, and was soaked all over.
Chen Jianghe was also very confused when he saw him coming. He quickly welcomed him into the house, handed him a towel, and asked him to wipe the water off his body first.
This man had been running all the way here and was a little out of breath. He didn't even bother to wipe the rain off his body.
He leaned on his knees with both hands, his eyes full of fear, "Uncle Chen... Uncle Chen, no... This is not good!"
Chen Jianghe knew that he must have something urgent to do in the rain, but seeing that he was barely out of breath, he couldn't urge him and could only tell him not to worry.
The man exhaled heavily before speaking, "Uncle Chen, it's bad! There's a mudslide!"
Chen Jianghe's heart skipped a beat. The Hexi Brigade was surrounded by mountains on both sides, so any mudslide would be a big deal no matter where it happened!
Before he could ask where the mudslide had occurred, Chen Chen rushed out with a bang.
Holding the man's shoulders, he asked anxiously, "Where is the mudslide? What's going on?"
The man was frightened by his appearance. After all, Chen Chen had seen people die in real combat, and he was too anxious at this moment, and the aura he couldn't control shocked him.
After calming down, he spoke, "The mountain over there collapsed, and all the houses were buried!"
Chen Jianghe stood up suddenly. Just when he was about to ask Chen Chen to go to the village to call for help and rescue people, he saw Chen Chen rushing in into the heavy rain.
He could only call his two sons out of the house, one to go to the village to call for help, and the other to go with him to rescue people first.
The house where the educated youth lived was at the foot of the mountain, only about twenty meters away. Normally there was nothing wrong with it, but this year the rain was heavy and fast.
So a landslide occurred on the mountain side near the educated youth site.
Xu Miaomiao's hut was closest to the mountain, so it was completely buried underneath at this time.
The female educated youth's dormitory was also flooded, but it was only half buried and then stopped. Only the men's dormitory and the kitchen survived.
When Chen Chen ran to the scene, he looked at the entire small house buried underneath, and his legs went weak and he knelt down.
He has participated in several disaster relief operations and he knows what this situation means.
Half of the female educated youth dormitory collapsed, and several girls were standing in the rain crying in fear.
Chen Chen had no time to be sad, time was life. He supported himself with his hands, stood up and ran to the hut.
His beloved girl was there. She must be scared. He had to save her. It was so dark and she was most afraid of the dark.
Chen Chen didn't dare to think about what would happen if something happened to her. They even had a quarrel when they last met.
If I had known this would happen, why would I have been so cowardly and agreed to her? What if a man of integrity couldn't take care of a girl?
