Chapter 46 Heavy Rain



Liang Su pursed her lips and smiled. If conditions permit, who wouldn't want to be a rich lady?

After drinking the soup, Liu Qian squatted beside the patio to wash the dishes.

"Liang Su, have you ever been to Yangcheng?"

Liang Su shook his head. "I grew up in Jiajing City and have never been out."

Liu Qian said, "Isn't it very far?"

"A few hundred kilometers, maybe? I heard before that if you want to take a bus from the city, you have to get up very early and travel all day, arriving in the evening."

Moreover, the road is difficult to walk on, and it will be even more uncomfortable if you get carsick.

Liu Qian lowered her head. "It's so far."

Liang Su asked, "Do you want to go to Yangcheng?"

"think."

Liang Su was stunned, not quite understanding Liu Qian's thoughts.

But it seems normal to want to go out for a walk. It’s better than staying in this small mountain village for the rest of your life.

In the evening, there was a sudden strong wind and dark clouds overhead.

Liu Qian quickly stood up and said, "It's going to rain soon. I'll go home first and come play with you another day."

Liang Su nodded and watched her leave.

Because of the rain, it got dark quickly.

Liang Su was afraid that he couldn't see at night and it would be inconvenient to take a bath, so he hurried to boil some hot water for a bath.

When I finished my shower, the sky was overcast but the rain hadn't come yet.

She hurriedly filled a bowl of pork rib soup, wrapped it in a bag, and ran out with the bowl in her arms.

She trotted all the way to Shen Limei's house and knocked on the door.

"Aunt Limei."

It was Shen Congji who opened the door, "What's the matter?"

Liang Su stuffed the pork rib soup into his hands and said, "This is what I gave to Aunt Li Mei."

After saying that, she ran away. If she didn't go home, she would get wet in the rain.

If you tell it to Shen Limei, it won’t make people think too much.

Shen Congji closed the door expressionlessly and walked in.

Shen Limei asked, "Who is it?"

"Liang Su."

"Oh, what's up?"

"It's for you." Shen Congji put down the pork rib soup.

Shen Limei opened the bag and the pork rib soup was still hot. It was covered with a plate and not a drop of it spilled out.

"It smells so good. Xiao Su's cooking skills are pretty good."

Shen Congji pulled the corner of his lip and refused to comment.

The rain didn't stop falling until Liang Su went to bed at night.

The sound of rain hitting the tiles was so pleasant that she fell asleep quickly.

I don’t know how long it took, Liang Su woke up from his dream, sat up holding the quilt, and found that the quilt was wet.

It turned out that the house was leaking, and raindrops were dripping through the mosquito net and onto the quilt.

Liang Su was not in the mood to care about this. Instead, he thought about the dream he had just had.

She dreamed that heavy rain fell continuously all night long, the river water rose, and silently flooded the residents living along the river. The houses of several families collapsed, and the people were directly swept away by the flood, and there was no way to save them.

Liang Su hurriedly put on his clothes and walked out. With the help of the candlelight, he found the flashlight he had just bought.

She has to stop it!

As soon as Liang Su opened the door, he was greeted by rain, which wet his face.

She didn't have a raincoat, and after hesitating for a moment, she rushed into the dark rain.

Fortunately, it was only September. If it were winter, Liang Su felt that he would have caught a cold.

She didn't know many people in Bali Village, and the only person she could trust and who had the ability to prevent this disaster was Shen Congji.

She ran to the door of Shen Congji's house, and the rain was pouring down, making it impossible for her to open her eyes.

“Shen Congji, Shen Congji!”

She knocked on the door loudly, her hands aching terribly, but she could only repeat her actions numbly.

Until the door opens.

"Why don't you check out what time it is? It's still raining heavily outside!"

Shen Congji shouted angrily, grabbed her arm roughly, and brought her inside.

Looking at Liang Su, who was soaked all over, his eyes became even darker.

"You'd better have a good reason!"

Liang Su's voice was trembling. "The rain will continue to fall, and the river will surge up, flooding those homes that are low-lying and close to the river. Houses will collapse, and people will be washed away."

Shen Congji stared wide-eyed, sizing up Liang Su's expression.

"Liang Su, give me a reason to believe you."

Liang Su's eyes sparkled as she looked up at him and said firmly, "You asked me last time why I knew there would be a landslide. I'm telling you now, because I saw it happen! The old lady wanted to change seats, but I didn't want her to. Then the driver braked suddenly and she was thrown out and died on the spot. That was the original outcome. I saw it happen."

Shen Congji couldn't hide his shock, this was too outrageous.

"What you should do now is not to question me here, but to wake those people up." Liang Su reminded.

Shen Congji immediately put on his raincoat and walked out.

Liang Su wanted to follow, but he stopped her: "You stay here!"

"I have to go! If I don't go, you don't know which houses will be flooded!" Liang Su shouted hurriedly.

Shen Congji looked at her miserable appearance. Although she was soaked and her hair was dripping with water, she remained firm and did not back down at all.

The girl who would be so scared that her eyes would turn red when she saw a centipede was running around in the rain for someone who had nothing to do with her.

His heart felt like it had been punched by someone, and he felt a mixture of emotions that he couldn't describe.

"Put on your raincoat." Shen Congji took out a raincoat for her.

Liang Su shook his head. "It's wet anyway, it doesn't matter."

"Put it on!" he said firmly.

Liang Su had no choice but to put it on and ran out with him.

The village is full of muddy roads. There are puddles every two steps and it's very slippery.

Liang Su's body was covered in mud and he had fallen several times, looking very miserable.

Shen Congji first went to find Liu Guohua. He was the team leader, and his words were more authoritative, so everyone would listen to him.

When Liu Guohua heard his words, his expression changed.

It is better to believe it exists than not to believe it exists. After all, it is a matter of life and death.

"Let's go knock on every door!"

At this time, his four sons came in handy. He dug them out of their beds and pulled them together to call for help.

He brought a loudspeaker with him, and whenever there were meetings in the village, he would shout through the loudspeaker, and there was no one he couldn't wake up.

Liu Guohua shouted until his voice was hoarse before he could barely convey the news to everyone.

But just notifying them is not enough, we have to persuade them to leave.

You said the house would be washed away, but who would believe it? This is not the first time it has rained heavily.

Liu Guohua had to say that he had done it before he reluctantly persuaded a few families to leave.

The remaining two or three households, led by Zhang Qiaoying, made the most noise.

"We've been here for so long. If we could be washed away by the flood, we would have been washed away long ago. Why wait until now? Anyway, I'm not leaving. My home is right here. Where do you want me to run to?"

She saw Liang Su behind Shen Congji and her eyes widened.

"Why are you two together?!"

Liu Guohua quickly explained, "It was Liang Zhiqing who informed me! She's an educated person, definitely more educated than us. If she said there would be a flood, then there would definitely be a flood. You should pack up your things and stay overnight at another villager's house! I didn't ask you to pack up and leave, so why don't you just take your valuables with you? It's not a big deal!"
