The torrential rain in the original book was just an accelerator of the relationship between the male and female protagonists.
When I read the novel, I didn't feel anything, at most I felt that the behavior between the male and female protagonists was a little disgusting.
But only when you stand in the dimension of the novel's plot yourself can you truly feel the horror of this heavy rain.
In the original book, Song Zhouxing failed to successfully repair the village tractor due to the villagers' distrust and ridicule.
By the time the team leader's commune called in a repairman and fixed the tractor, many surrounding villages had already finished their autumn harvest and handed in their crops.
When Dayang Village was about to finish the autumn harvest and went to deliver the grain, it happened to encounter this once-in-a-century heavy rain.
Many ripe corns were soaked by the heavy rain and eventually became moldy and infested with insects.
Dayang Village finally managed to pay all the required grain, but the remaining grain was not enough for the villagers.
This winter, many people fell ill due to hunger and cold, and many elderly people even died in order to save food.
The book only draws attention to the sweet love between the hero and heroine, and such a tragic scene is hastily revealed with just one or two sentences.
Wanwan's request for Song Zhouxing's help in repairing the car was partly due to her desire to build good relationships with the villagers and make them remember her kindness. However, she also wanted them to avoid this disaster.
I have had a lot of dealings with these villagers during this period. There are indeed some disgusting people and things in the village, but most people are very kind and enthusiastic, and some have even helped Wanwan.
So Wanwan hopes that with her own efforts, she can help the villagers of Dayang Village avoid this disaster.
Wanwan looked at the loud rain outside and felt a little bored. She looked at her watch and saw that it was almost evening. She wondered if Song Zhouxing would still come over for dinner tonight since it was raining so heavily.
"Why think so much? Whether he eats it or not, I will definitely eat it. At worst, I can make less. If he comes later, I can just find a set meal in the space for him to eat!"
Wanwan thought so and felt that it was very feasible.
The autumn harvest is over and the weather in Northeast China is getting colder rapidly. It seems that we will have to hibernate soon.
The mountain products should be ready for picking. After the rain, I will go to the mountain and pick some.
Give some to Meng's father and mother to reassure them that she is living well here. As for the rest, cook or fry them. These things are easy to store and can be stored away as snacks for the whole year.
Wanwan prepared pork rib soup and stir-fried celery for dinner. She waited for a while for Song Zhouxing, but when she saw that he hadn't come yet, she happily started eating herself.
You know what, Wanwan’s cooking skills have improved these past two days, and the food she made is really delicious.
"Song Zhouxing probably won't be coming to dinner tonight. It's raining so hard, he probably won't be able to come over."
Wanwan thought so, looking at the raindrops falling heavier and heavier outside the window. Wanwan thought that nothing would happen at this time, so she planned to close the door after dinner.
Suddenly, there was a sound of kicking and stomping. Wanwan looked into the yard and saw that it was Song Zhouxing who was fully armed.
"It's raining so hard, I thought you wouldn't come tonight!"
"Well, I was originally planning not to come, but the rain is so heavy, and there's something wrong with the house I live in at the educated youth camp, so I thought I'd ask you to take me in.
I remember there is a small attic next to you with a bed in it!"
Song Zhouxing wiped the water droplets from his hair while asking Bei Wan as a matter of course.
"You're really rude. There is indeed a small bed in the attic. By the way, you just said something was wrong with the house. Is it leaking?" Wanwan was a little curious.
"Not only that, the house may collapse due to years of disrepair and the heavy rain."
Song Zhouxing said casually while eating the food that Wanwan had heated up in the pot.
"Is it just your house, or are all the houses in the educated youth settlement like this?"
"How should I know this? I haven't been to their house." Song Zhouxing looked at Wanwan in shock, as if asking, why would you ask such a worthless question.
Wanwan tried hard to recall the plot of the original book. The heavy rain would cause the hero and heroine's house to collapse, and they would rescue each other, and then their relationship would warm up.
So what about the other people in the educated youth group?
This is not mentioned in detail in the book. Wanwan tried hard to think about it, to see if she could find some clues from some traces.
By the way, there is a chapter in the book that talks about the scene of receiving the admission notice after the college entrance examination. How is it described?
Xu Yanzhi, who had a slight limp, was unable to apply for his favorite major due to some physical disability. Seeing Li Meiyuan and Song Zhouyan's excited expressions because they were admitted to their favorite majors, he couldn't help but smile with envy.
Meanwhile, the old educated youth Zhang Yi touched the scar on his face dejectedly, knowing that he was not worthy of the man in his heart, and walked away!
Xu Yanzhi and Zhang Yi were educated youth at the educated youth center. They were fine when I saw them a few days ago, so their injuries were most likely caused by the heavy rain.
Thinking of this, Bei Wan suddenly felt a little restless. Although she, Meng Bei Wan, was not a good person, she would feel guilty if she knew that an accident would happen and did nothing.
I can't help them in any other way, but I can give them a reminder.
"Hey, where are you going?" Song Zhouxing, who had just filled his stomach, asked Bei Wan, who was fully armed and holding a big umbrella and about to rush into the heavy rain.
"I have to tell the team leader about this and ask him to make some arrangements. I think this heavy rain might cause damage to the houses at the educated youth camp."
Wanwan replied loudly
"It's raining so hard?" Song Zhouxing held Bei Wan back. "And you said this was just your guess. If nothing happened, there are a few hard-to-talk-to people in this educated youth camp. What are you going to do?"
Moreover, even if the educated youth agreed to move out, where would they find shelter from the rain? There weren't any extra houses in the village. You might even end up having to give up your own house, which would be a thankless task.
As Song Zhouxing asked one question after another, Bei Wan calmed down.
Only then did she realize the inappropriateness of her own behavior.
"How about this? Let's think things through first, then inform the captain and see if there's any way we can get the educated youth to accept it quickly and get out of the rain. The most important thing is, how can we avoid getting ourselves involved?"
Song Zhouxing continued.
