Chapter 262: After the Rain, Things Remain
Qin Xiangnuan knew that Liu was too concerned about her. She kept saying that she didn't want her to leave, but in fact she supported her.
"Mom." Qin Xiangnuan smiled, "You've worked hard today. I want to eat dumplings."
Qin Xiangnuan found a meal that was complicated to prepare and acted coquettishly towards Liu.
Liu gave her a reproachful look, and Qin Xiangnuan smiled back.
"I'll make it for you." Liu said with a smile, "Just wait patiently today. I don't need your help."
"Okay." Qin Xiangnuan nodded obediently.
Qin Xiangnuan replenished ingredients such as noodles, meat and vegetables every day, so it was not so troublesome for Liu to prepare them at this time.
After Qin Feng lay down on the bed, he really fell asleep immediately. When Qin Xiangning lay beside him and played with his hair, Qin Feng was still awake, but then he lost consciousness.
It was not until this time, when Liu and Zou were chopping meat together, that Qin Feng was awakened by the fragrance.
"Mom, aunt, what delicious food are you making?" Qin Feng stared blankly and stood in front of them following the smell of meat.
"Go away!" Zou waved her hand and hit Qin Feng's hand that was stretched out to grab food.
Qin Feng sighed. Zou didn't hold back at all when she hit him.
"Mom, I am your biological son, right?" Qin Feng covered his hands and cried.
"You're not!" Zou scolded with a smile, "Who knows who threw you in front of my door?"
"Hey!" Qin Feng laughed.
A meal of dumplings was placed on the table amid laughter and joy. Even Qin Xiangsong, who was forced to memorize in the corner, smiled when he saw the dumplings.
In the wind and rain, there is laughter here and crying elsewhere. Same thunderstorm, different lives.
The rain showed signs of stopping on the second day and ended completely at Chou time.
However, the consequences of the wind and rain continued at the time of Chenshi.
"Third Miss, have you heard?" Qin Xiangnuan was admiring the land that was trying hard to get rid of the barrenness after the rain, when she was interrupted by a series of footsteps and shouts behind her.
Qin Xiangnuan had to get up and looked at them in confusion. No one had spoken to her since she got up, so naturally there was no place to hear any rumors.
"Miss San, yesterday's rain was terrible." The speaker was an auntie, who was trying to vividly describe an accident that she had not witnessed with her own eyes.
Qin Xiangnuan frowned when she heard this. Yesterday's rain was quite heavy, but it was unlikely to cause a house to collapse, unless it was already a dangerous building.
"You don't know how pitiful that family is!" the aunt continued. "Now they have no house, how can they survive?"
Although everyone here is pitiful, it is a pity that there are some who are even more pitiful among the pitiful ones.
"Is that family injured?" Qin Xiangnuan asked.
"Ouch." The aunt was stunned. She didn't know this. People on the street were talking about the collapsed house, but no one mentioned what happened to the people.
Qin Xiangnuan thought that no one was killed, otherwise it would have become a rumor spread among people.
"Auntie, do you know which family he is from?" Qin Xiangnuan asked.
The aunt knew the answer, so she quickly answered her, trying to cover up her ignorance, saying loudly, "Look, that's it."
The aunt pointed to a place only three meters away, and it was the person Qin Xiangnuan met after getting up early that day.
"You should have seen that man. Everyone calls him Wang Lao Er," the auntie introduced enthusiastically. "But his brother passed away when he was a child, and now he's the only laborer left in the family. With elderly parents and young children to support, life is not easy for him!"
Qin Xiangnuan didn't have a bad impression of Wang Laoer. He spoke a little bluntly, but frankly. She wanted to go visit his house just to see if the old and the young were healthy.
After asking the aunt about Wang Laoer's residence, Qin Xiangnuan was about to leave the field.
At this time, she happened to meet many people working in the fields. After greeting her, three or four out of ten would talk about the sad events of the previous day.
"Nuannuan, where are you going in such a hurry?" Liu happened to be taking Qin Xiangning out to play when she met Qin Xiangnuan.
"Mom." Qin Xiangnuan stopped and said, "I heard that someone's house collapsed, and I want to go check it out."
Liu also heard about this. Because Qin Xiangnuan had made great contributions in the fields, others would greet the Qin family warmly when they saw them.
When Liu was outside, she was pulled aside by several passers-by to talk about this matter.
"I heard about it too. I heard that the old lady was crying so sadly, and the child's leg was hit. The child's father was very anxious." Liu heard much more details.
"You should go and take a look." Liu turned her head and glanced at Qin Xiangning. "I heard that his son was beaten like Beibei. He's so young and has to suffer this. You should go and take a look."
Before she met Qin Xiangnuan, Liu could only sigh after hearing about it, but now she thought it would be better to help others, as other people's medical skills were probably not as good as Qin Xiangnuan's.
After Qin Xiangnuan said a few words to Liu, she left in a hurry.
"Beibei, what are you pinching?"
"Little rabbit!"
The voices of Liu and Qin Xiangning's conversation fell on Qin Xiangnuan's ears. As she walked towards Wang Laoer's house, she didn't hear any sound on the road.
But as I got closer, I heard a few cries of children and the elderly, which formed a sharp contrast with the sound that finally disappeared in my mind.
"Mom, don't cry with me!" Qin Xiangnuan was already familiar with Wang Laoer's voice. With this tone, Qin Xiangnuan seemed to be able to guess his expression.
"My grandson is so pitiful, how can I not cry?" The old lady's voice still sounded loud. She thought it was nothing serious and only the child was injured.
Qin Xiangnuan turned a corner and the entire scenery came into view.
Wang Laoer was circling in annoyance, and when he turned over here, he happened to run into Qin Xiangnuan.
"Third Miss?" Obviously, Qin Xiangnuan's appearance was not what Wang Laoer expected.
Qin Xiangnuan nodded, her eyes not looking around, but staying on Wang Laoer's face, and said casually: "I was passing by, heard the sound, and came to take a look."
"You here..." Qin Xiangnuan stopped talking at the right time and looked at the person behind him.
Only then did Wang Laoer realize that Qin Xiangnuan's arrival had actually stopped the two people from crying.
"Tsk." Wang Lao Er was quite impatient, but he still said, "This broken house couldn't even withstand a rain and became such a miserable state."
Qin Xiangnuan then looked around. The sun had already come out, but there was still a musty smell in the place.
"Is the child okay?" Qin Xiangnuan's gaze finally fell on the person.
The old lady couldn't help crying when she mentioned this. "My poor grandson! I don't know if he will be able to use his leg in the future. How can I live with this?"
Qin Xiangnuan saw that the injury on her leg had been treated, but the technique was a bit rough, and the boards on both sides were tied tightly.
