Chapter 58 News from Grandpa



"What's wrong?" Li Xiyue asked in confusion when she saw that he looked strange.

Chu Xun did not hide it from her and said, "There are enemy spies lurking around you."

He would find out the enemy spies lurking around her as soon as possible, but before that it was necessary to let her know about it so that she could be on guard.

Li Xiyue raised her eyebrows. If they couldn't live their life openly, they had to do it secretly?

Who could be the enemy spy beside her?

"Is this why you came here?" Li Xiyue asked.

It's impossible that he came here specifically to provide disaster relief. The flood had just started when he arrived, and he didn't have the ability to predict the future, so it's impossible for him to arrive so timely.

Then it's probably because of something else.

Chu Xun hesitated for a moment and said, "Half."

She is smart, so there is no need to hide what he can guess from her. As for the other half, it is a secret, and he has rules and cannot tell her.

"I will cooperate with your actions." Li Xiyue said.

After she came through, she encountered several groups of enemy spies. She guessed that the enemy spies came to her because of the original owner's grandfather. Although she didn't know the specific reason, she knew that this matter might involve national interests.

She had only guessed before, but now that Chu Xun was here, she was even more certain that she was right.

After thinking for a while, Li Xiyue asked, "Is my grandpa still alive?"

She felt that Chu Xun must know news about the original owner's grandfather.

Chu Xun didn't answer directly, but said, "The mooncakes from last year's Mid-Autumn Festival were very sweet."

Li Xiyue understood instantly and didn't ask any more questions.

Chu Xun will definitely say what he can say, and what he hasn’t said cannot be said.

Two days later, the flood completely receded and post-disaster reconstruction work was underway.

There were ten production brigades under Chunfeng Commune, and eight of them were affected by the disaster.

Compared with other production teams, the Red Sun Production Brigade was blessed with divine help, and its casualties and losses were surprisingly the lightest.

Among the three teams Xu, Su and Wang on the left side of the river bank, only two houses collapsed in the second team's Sujia Village, three or four people were injured, and no one died.

Although one third of Wangjia Village of the third team was flooded, the personnel were evacuated in time, and only a dozen villagers were slightly injured. One villager was washed away by the flood and his life or death is unknown.

Not to mention Xujia Village, there was only some water accumulation in the low-lying areas, and the rest was intact.

The most serious situation was in Liujia Village, the fourth team, on the right bank of the river. A large number of houses collapsed and several elderly people were washed away by the flood.

Gaojia Village of the fifth team is located upstream of the river. The situation is similar to that of Xujia Village. Only the paddy fields in the lower areas are flooded and several dilapidated houses are destroyed by the flood. There are no casualties.

Perhaps it was because Chu Xun and his men arrived in time that the Red Sun Production Team suffered so little damage.

Other production teams were not so lucky. More than a dozen villagers were washed away, and a huge number of people were injured. One village was even completely submerged by the flood, and one-third of the villagers drowned.

Heavy rain overnight caused a landslide, and the village at the foot of the mountain was buried by the sliding rocks. Less than half of the villagers escaped, and the remaining half were buried.

The flood disaster was so serious that the province set up a disaster relief team and sent specialists to help villagers build houses, accommodate the injured, and comfort the families of the deceased.

A special treatment station was set up and medical personnel were sent from the provincial hospital to treat the injured.

But for the people affected by the disaster, their already poor lives have become even worse.

The poorer you are, the more unlucky you are. This is indeed true.

Li Xiyue sighed and went up the mountain carrying the backpack.

She had done everything she could. Now all she could do was collect more herbs and supply them to the rescue station to help the injured recover faster.

She took Xiaobai into the mountains, collected all the missing herbs, and returned to the village carrying a heavy basket. She saw that the members were already working in an orderly manner, and life in Xujia Village had returned to normal.

Xu Guoqiang said that no matter what, spring plowing should not be delayed.

"My brother is gone, how can I live?"

On the way back, when passing by Xu Youtian's house, he heard a burst of crying and shouting coming from the yard, which was so sad that it sounded like a funeral spree.

But this time he was really howling.

The one howling was none other than Wang Cuihua, who was from Wangjia Village in the second team.

As luck would have it, the villager from Wangjia Village who was washed away by the flood was her younger brother from her mother's side.

Li Xiyue heard that Xu Dazhuang's life was saved after being sent to the health center, but he was so scared that he started screaming at the slightest movement. He was considered a useless person.

Wang Cuihua did not admit that she had an affair. She also found the man in the town and confronted him. He only said that he was looking for him to find a job for his son.

Wang Cuihua denied the charge of having an affair, and the team did not punish her, but her husband insisted on divorcing her.

Now my younger brother from my mother's family is gone too. It's really a double whammy.

Li Xiyue did not sympathize with her and walked away with the backpack on her back.

"Li Xiyue!" Wang Cuihua, who was in the room, saw her and rushed out like a madman. "You've hurt me like this, are you satisfied?"

Li Xiyue was so angry that she almost laughed. She didn't provoke anyone. It was obviously Wang Cuihua's own fault. Now it was retribution, but she didn't repent and put the blame on her.

"None of my business!" Li Xiyue looked at her coldly: "Did I let your son go up the mountain? Did I let you have an affair? Or did I let your brother be washed away by the flood?"

"I didn't do anything, you deserve it all."

These words stabbed Wang Cuihua's heart like a knife. She was so angry that she said, "It's you who caused this. I'm going to beat you to death, you bitch!"

Seeing the crazy woman rushing towards her, Li Xiyue dodged easily.

Wang Cuihua missed and fell flat on her face. She screamed in pain and when she got up, she found that one of her front teeth had fallen out and blood was flowing.
