Chapter 361: Sudden change, a sense of inexplicable uneasiness
The next day.
It was a very ordinary day.
Get up early, eat, prepare lunch boxes and school bags, and send Zhou Xiaochuan and Zhou Xiaohua to school.
Everything is so ordinary.
I heard from the old captain in the village that the weather has been unstable recently and there might be a storm, so the boat trips to the sea will have to be suspended for a few days.
Jiang Rou finally has time to rest and can focus more on her family.
Throughout the entire summer, all the edible vegetables, fruits and melons in the small yard were eaten, and all the fruit-bearing vegetables, fruits and melons bore fruit.
The remaining vines were in the later stages of their lives and were dried out by the sun.
Jiang Rou first hung the fish meat on a hemp rope, then hung it on a bamboo pole and dried it in the hot sun.
Then I started to clean up the yard and pull out all the dead plants.
Then start tilling the soil again.
Jiang Rou collected a pile of wood ash in advance. Wood ash can be used as soil fertilizer and can also sterilize the soil.
So she turned the soil over and sprinkled wood ash on it to mix it together.
During this period.
The cherry pits planted by Zhou Xiaohua have already taken root and sprouted.
Jiang Rou moved the small cherry seedlings from the corner to a location near the courtyard gate with the best sunlight.
After a few years, the cherry trees will grow tall and majestic. Not only can we eat delicious cherries, but they can also provide shade and coolness, and their lush leaves will make us feel good just by looking at them.
Jiang Rou was looking forward to the future and never stopped working.
In the blink of an eye.
It's already noon.
Noon is the time when sunlight is the strongest and the sunniest.
But at noon that day, the sky suddenly darkened.
The wind started to blow again.
Jiang Rou wiped the sweat from her forehead and looked up at the sky.
The sky was blue and cloudless in the morning, but suddenly it was covered with dark clouds.
It was like the dark clouds that didn't rain last night returned after a night.
Is it going to rain again?
Jiang Rou frowned.
Her chest felt like the sky covered with dark clouds; it felt stuffy, heavy, and she could hardly breathe.
She was a little absent-minded.
Zhao Guifen's voice suddenly came over.
"Sister Rou, you are still busy~ I heard you have been busy for almost half a day, why don't you go into the house to rest and don't get tired."
Jiang Rou replied, "There is only one corner of the small yard that has not been turned over. I want to do it all at once, so there will be no left."
"Is that so... Then I'll watch you do it and talk to you while I'm at it."
Zhao Guifen lay on the wall between the two houses.
She was eating noodle dumpling soup, holding a large bowl, and talking to Jiang Rou while eating.
When Jiang Rou heard what Zhao Guifen said, she probably guessed something.
She smiled and said, "Sister Guifen, did you hear some gossip from somewhere again?"
Zhao Guifen loves to listen to gossip and also loves to share gossip.
I love chatting with Jiang Rou the most.
Zhao Guifen laughed out loud, not feeling embarrassed at all, and continued speaking.
"I went out to visit friends this morning and heard something strange. There were schools of fish near the pier. Lots and lots of fish."
"School of fish?"
Jiang Rou put the hoe on the ground, propped up her arms, and looked up at Zhao Guifen.
Zhao Guifen gulped down a mouthful of the noodle dumplings and then nodded heavily.
"Yes! It's a school of fish! So many fish, all coming to the shore. Some say they are dead fish, some say they are alive. Anyway, they are all packed with fish."
"This happened last night. Many people went fishing with flashlights."
"Sister Rou, why are the fish so strange? They don't swim into the sea, but instead rush to the shore, as if they were committing suicide. Why are those fish so stupid?"
Jiang Rou felt a sense of familiarity as she listened to Zhao Guifen's words.
She seemed to have heard such a thing somewhere.
Zhao Guifen was still eating her noodles with a slurp. After wiping her mouth, she continued talking.
"Sister Rou, if fish keep coming ashore every day, why would we need to take a boat to catch them? We can just go to the beach near the pier. It will save time and effort, don't you think?"
Jiang Rou didn't even have time to think about it after he finished speaking.
Click.
Snap, snap!
Snap, snap, snap!
Raindrops fell from the sky like beads with a broken string.
"It's raining! How can it rain when it's said to rain? It's time to put away the clothes - it's raining -"
Zhao Guifen opened her voice and shouted to the people around her.
Cold raindrops fell on Jiang Rou's body.
She hurriedly began to collect the clothes, and also had to take back the dried fish that had just been hung out.
During this period.
Jiang Rou was busy with her hands, but the heavy feeling of depression in her heart did not disappear with the falling raindrops.
Instead, it becomes stronger and stronger.
That was... a kind of inexplicable uneasiness.
She couldn't tell why.
It's like a woman's sixth sense.
An ominous feeling continued to spread and expand in Jiang Rou's heart.
The rain was still falling madly.
The rain fell on the glass windows of the cabin, making a crackling sound.
That voice made the deep uneasiness in Jiang Rou's heart concrete.
Something must have happened!
Jiang Rou was feeling extremely uneasy and subconsciously reached out to hold the jade pendant on her chest.
That jade pendant has been with her since she was a child. Even when she traveled through time, this jade pendant was the one she was most familiar with.
Subconsciously, she wanted to reassure herself.
However.
At the moment her fingertips touched the jade pendant.
A voice flashed through Jiang Rou's mind.
"mother……"
It was a faint, small voice, a girl's.
Little flower!
It’s Xiaohua!
Although Jiang Rou had only heard Zhou Xiaohua speak once, her words were still unclear.
But she couldn't have heard it wrong.
It must be Zhou Xiaohua.
Is there something wrong with the child? !
A chill rose from the soles of Jiang Rou's feet, making her shiver all over.
She didn't care about anything and rushed out directly.
Zhao Guifen happened to see Jiang Rou running in a hurry.
"Sister Rou, it's raining, where are you going? Why don't you open your umbrella——"
At this moment.
Jiang Rou had only one thought in her mind.
Go to school!
She would not be able to feel at ease until she saw Zhou Xiaohua and Zhou Xiaochuan in person.
Jiang Rou's slender figure rushed into the rain and she could not hear Zhao Guifen's voice at all.
Anxious footsteps stepped on the ground, and the rain that had just fallen had already formed puddles on the ground.
The splashing rain soaked Jiang Rou's trousers and legs.
Jiang Rou's whole body gradually became wet.
