The team leader allowed the villagers to catch fish within two days.
Just to be on the safe side, Su Ying left quite a few fish; she estimated that about half of them were left.
Looking at the fish in the pond with great concern, he thought, "What should I do?"
Gu Sinian shrugged. "Don't think too much about it. We've done our best. We'll try to salvage what we can."
"Actually, the brigade leader was just greedy... He thought that leaving half of the fish would benefit the villagers, but he didn't expect that... nothing would be left after tomorrow."
Su Ying looked at the fish dejectedly, "What a pity for the fish in the pond."
"That's all we can do to help. After all, we're just ordinary people, and even if we had money, we wouldn't dare to give it away."
“I’m afraid that if I hand over the money, I’ll be arrested and investigated later, and they’ll ask me where the money came from.”
It's quite troublesome.
That's all they could do; the rest is up to fate.
The couple slowly walked towards the captain and stopped not far from him.
Su Ying still looked at the captain with unwavering hope, wishing they would sell the rest of the fish to them.
The captain, however, looked at them with a suspicious eye, thinking that something must have happened to this couple who had hoarded so many fish.
There might really be a flood.
Everything is expensive after the flood, and their village can make a lot of money.
"We won't sell the rest of the fish. Please leave now."
The two designated a location for the team leader and villagers to deliver fish, which Su Ying then stored in her storage space.
"The money and goods are settled, we should head back now."
Su Ying shook her head. "Let's do one last thing before we go back, otherwise I won't be able to rest easy."
"You mean..."
“Yes. Go to the space and change into a military uniform, then tell the villagers of Yuxian Village to wait at the highest point tonight.”
"During a flood, it's taboo to go to the lowest point. Put on your military uniform and let the villagers of Xian Village go up the mountain to take shelter."
Gu Sinian nodded, "Then wait for me in the car, I'll be right back."
Gu Sinian, who had emerged from the space, had changed into a military uniform and was heading towards Yuxian Village.
Su Ying took Xiao Bao out of her spatial dimension and, as usual, used a needle to wake the child up.
Xiao Bao has been feeling drowsy these past few days. He feels like time is flying by; he plays for only a short while and the whole day is over.
As soon as Xiao Bao opened his eyes, he asked the question that had been puzzling her for a long time, "Pretty Auntie, I don't know what's wrong with me lately. I feel like it's just getting light, and I feel like I just finished eating not long ago, so how come it's dark again?"
Su Ying smiled awkwardly. It wasn't her fault. To ensure the necessary feeding time, Su Ying had been keeping Xiao Bao asleep the whole time.
Xiao Bao had just finished lunch when Su Ying pricked him again. Not only did it get dark, but he also got hungry, which puzzled him greatly.
Su Ying knew that this child was very clever, a real little devil.
It's a bit difficult to fool her.
Neither of the siblings were easy to mess with.
She's someone you can't afford to mess with.
I could only make up a relatively truthful lie: "You've been sick these past few days, with a fever, and you've been feeling drowsy and waking up intermittently, which is why it felt like it was dark not long after dawn."
"Oh. I see."
Xiao Bao was still young, and she quickly believed what Su Ying said. After all, she had been sick before, had a fever, a headache, felt dizzy, and when she closed her eyes and opened them again, it was already dark.
Su Ying had been observing Xiao Bao's expression and knew that the little devil had been won over by her lie.
Little brat.
Xiao Bao and Chen Chen both crawled out of her belly, and she still can't control you two little devils.
"Yes, that's right.
Xiao Bao seemed to have thought of something and asked again, "But I always have a headache when I'm sick, why don't I have a headache this time?"
Su Ying touched her nose guiltily, inwardly grumbling, "Because you weren't sick at all, you were just pricked with a needle by her..."
Only she and Gu Sinian know about this; it's best if the little one doesn't know.
The two ate dinner in the car, but Gu Sinian still hadn't returned. Su Ying sensed something was wrong and felt like they were about to be swept away by the water.
Realizing what was happening, Su Yingmeng saw the child's eyes and flashed into the space, along with the military green jeep.
Su Ying was afraid that the child would notice something was wrong, so the needle reappeared, and Xiao Bao fell into a deep sleep again.
Touching Xiao Bao's cheek, Su Ying looked apologetic. "I'm sorry, child, I have to give you acupuncture again. You should get a good night's sleep in the space, and you'll be fine tomorrow."
"I will never give you acupuncture again after I go home."
Su Ying looked at Xiao Bao's face and made a promise.
I carried the child to the room, covered her with a blanket, and then left the space again.
Gu Sinian hasn't come back so late, something must have happened. As long as he wasn't swept away by the water on his way back, it's fine.
The force of that water was truly terrifying; if she hadn't had the support of her spatial dimension, she would have been swept away by the flood.
There was no time to catch one's breath.
Su Ying didn't wait long. She had just flashed out of the space when she was almost swept away by the water and returned to the space.
In just a few seconds, Su Ying was completely soaked. She changed her clothes and sat in the living room, lost in thought.
She was very worried about Gu Sinian, wondering if he was alright. With so many villagers in Yuxian Village, settling so many people in peace was no easy task.
I hope everything is alright.
Su Ying stared at the wall clock all night until dawn, when Su Ying mustered up her courage and went out of the space again.
This time, instead of being swept away by the rushing water, she was slowly carried to the side, and only then could Su Ying see the situation outside clearly.
Yesterday's flat ground was completely covered by floodwater. No flowers, plants, or trees could be seen; it was all a vast expanse of white water, and the roads were indistinguishable.
Su Ying looked at this scene with a strange expression on her face.
Which way do I get there?
Su Ying had no idea where the pits were or where the fishponds were, nor did she know which direction to go. She could only rely on her memories from the past two days to avoid the direction of the fishponds.
Su Ying cheered herself up in her heart. It's okay, it's okay. She has a space. As long as she senses something is wrong, she can immediately enter the space to save her life.
As she cautiously moved to the side, Gu Sinian suddenly appeared out of nowhere and hugged her from behind. Su Ying was stunned for a moment, then tried to break free.
She could smell the unique scent of Gu Sinian. Su Ying turned around and hugged him tightly, patting his back.
“Where did you go? I was worried all night. Do you know that you didn’t come back for so long? Xiao Bao and I waited for you all night, but instead of seeing you, you were swept away by a huge wave. If I didn’t have a spatial ability, I would have been swept away along with the car.”
Speaking of this, he also regretted it. The villagers of Yuxian Village were too difficult to deal with. He talked until his saliva was dry before he finally persuaded them to take refuge.
