Lin Chaonan frowned and remained silent.
Actually, before Yue Jiuyue spoke, he did want to leave with the people who were leaving this time. Regardless of whether his family members stayed or left, he had already decided to leave.
However, what Yue Jiuyue said also makes sense.
Floods are natural disasters. Even if they were a group, they would likely be separated. Where would the flood take him? The floodwaters are full of all sorts of things; could he get hurt? If he gets hurt, he'll really just have to wait to die.
There will likely be someone lucky enough to escape this disaster, but will he be that lucky one?
"Mother, why don't we take advantage of the fact that it's stopped raining now and use the remaining stones and wood to build a couple of simple houses on the mountaintop?"
Lin Chaobei suggested.
Yue Jiuyue hesitated for a moment, then shook her head and refused.
"No, who knows when the rain will start again? There's no shelter on the mountain, and the wind is even stronger. It's not safe."
She has a safe house, but it's just not easy to take it out.
Or should we release it deep in the mountains?
"How about we dig a cave out halfway up the mountain?"
Lin Chaonan made the suggestion.
This seems feasible, right? Although there are still some safety concerns, they had no other choice, so Yue Jiuyue could only nod in agreement.
"You three better watch out!"
As Yue Jiuyue watched the three brothers carrying hoes, shovels, and rattan baskets, she couldn't help but shout another word of advice.
"Yes, Mother!"
The three turned around and responded, with Lin Chaobei even baring his teeth and waving at Yue Jiuyue.
Not long after the three of them went up the mountain, it started to rain. The raindrops were big, heavy, and dense, pattering against the dark tiles of the roof.
Fortunately, Yue Jiuyue had ginger at home, so there was plenty of ginger soup. She could also secretly dissolve the medicine she bought from the mall in water and tell them it was sugar water, and make them drink it.
The three Lin brothers have a mother who has a special advantage, so despite being busy for several days, they are lucky enough not to catch a cold.
The other families in the village weren't so lucky. It's unclear whether they came up with the idea on their own or followed suit after seeing Lin Chaodong and the others doing it. One by one, they went up the mountain to dig caves. In the heavy rain, their straw hats and raincoats weren't waterproof, and they weren't made of iron, so they all caught colds.
“Auntie, my husband Lao Lin and his sons have all caught a cold. They're all lying in bed, delirious with fever. I see your three kids still going up the mountain every day. Do you have any way to prevent them from catching a cold?”
"Sigh! I know this method is definitely not something to be shared with outsiders, but I really have no other choice! My family doesn't have much money. I brought you half a basket of sweet potatoes. Although each one is about the size of an egg, it's the best we can offer. Please, auntie, save my husband and his family!"
A woman Yue Jiuyue didn't recognize suddenly came to her door with half a basket of sweet potatoes, asking for help. Yue Jiuyue was thinking of helping, but before she could speak, there was another knock on the door, so she had to open it again.
Sure enough, these people all had the same goal: to get her to help save people.
She can help one person, but half a village? Forget it, she'll just continue to be cold and ruthless.
"I just made them drink ginger soup every day."
She gave her the solution; the rest was really not her concern, since she wasn't a doctor.
