Little Linglong, who was advised to stay at home, could only stand up and silently lie by the window, watching Ling Hancheng's figure disappear in the rain.
The wind and rain were so strong that everything outside seemed blurred.
"Be good and wait patiently. Your father is very capable and will definitely bring your Grandpa Jin and the others back!" said Mrs. Ling, patting her granddaughter's head.
Xiao Linglong nodded, but there was obvious worry in her eyes.
In fact, although the wind and rain looked strong when he was in the house, he had no personal experience after all. It was not until Ling Hancheng came out and felt the raindrops hitting his body that he felt how crazy the wind and rain were.
He couldn't even see the road clearly, and could only walk towards Dahuai Mountain based on his impression and vague judgment.
Along the way, we heard many trees being blown down and tiles on people's roofs being blown off.
Very crazy.
Now Ling Hancheng seemed to be able to imagine that if someone’s roof was not strong enough, they might be exposed to the sun.
Ling Hancheng still remembered that there was a heavy rain a few years ago, and many people's mud-brick houses were washed away. After that, everyone realized the sturdiness of brick houses, and they tried to build brick houses even if they had to tighten their belts.
But not everyone can build a brick house if they want to.
When the rain stops, I guess Yao Yongbo will start to worry about the village's construction...
Ling Hancheng was thinking about these things as he walked up the mountain. Although he was wearing rubber boots, half of his trouser legs were already soaked.
Old Man Jin's house was built halfway up the mountain. Because it was on the mountain, most of the materials used were wood. Unlike the houses in Huaihe Village, which were mostly made of mud and tiles, the half-brick and half-mud houses like the Ling family's were better.
Of course, this wooden house has its pros and cons.
The advantage is that it is simple and easy to build, and it is spacious and bright to live in, but the disadvantage is that it is not fire-resistant. In addition, the material of the wood will definitely change after it gets damp, and its anti-corrosion performance is very poor.
The most important thing is that without any hard material, it will not be strong enough.
Ling Hancheng and the others also took these into consideration.
What he feared most was whether Old Man Jin’s house would be knocked down by the wind and rain, just like those broken trees.
Especially since there are old and young people in their family, if the house collapses... what will happen to them?
Thinking of this, Ling Hancheng's heart jumped up.
Normally, it would only take about ten minutes to walk from the Ling family to Old Man Jin's house, but this time Ling Hancheng felt like he had been walking for a long time.
He almost slipped several times on the road, and later he barely picked up a shovel that was dropped outside someone's house as a crutch.
Ling Hancheng finally breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that the house was still standing there in the wind and rain.
"Uncle Jin! Uncle Jin!"
As soon as he entered the yard, Ling Hancheng shouted loudly. The rain was so loud that he was afraid that Old Man Jin couldn't hear him.
As soon as he finished shouting, he saw the door of the main room open.
"Hancheng? Is it Hancheng?"
The moment Old Man Jin opened the door, he saw only a man wearing a conical hat. He couldn't see the other person's appearance clearly and could only identify him by his voice.
"Yes, Uncle Jin, it's me!" Ling Hancheng responded hurriedly as he walked over there.
Old Man Jin hurriedly said, "Hurry up! Hancheng, come in!"
Only when Ling Hancheng entered the house did he feel temporarily relieved from the wind and rain.
He took off his wet hat, water kept dripping from his hair and face, and he looked a little disheveled.
