Poor family farming: the sick and weak scholar's wife is very sturdy

Chapter 177 The river embankment was destroyed, there must be something strange!

Following the direction of Lin Xiao's finger, Li Yuyan saw that Linjiacun was still soaked in the vast ocean, but today it looked much better than yesterday, because the flood was slowly receding.

According to this speed, the flood should be able to recede before the sun goes down, right?
At this moment, the villagers who had descended from the mountain were all sitting around not far from Lin Xiao, all of them staring at the direction of the flood receding with wide-eyed expressions, with expressions of survival after disaster.

"The flood has receded! We can go home!"

An old man said excitedly.

"Yes, our village has finally recovered!"

Another woman was also excited.

"Recovery? It's never going to be the same again! It's all gone!"

Sophora Hua, who was lucky enough to escape the catastrophe, looked unlovable, and beside her was her man Lazy.

How she wished that the lazy man could be washed away by the flood, far away.

But don't look at the lazy man who is usually lazy to produce maggots, but he is good at escaping for his life!
Sophora's words silenced everyone again, and everyone's expressions became even more sad.

Some people who lost their loved ones in the flood simply lay on the ground and wept bitterly.

Looking at this scene, Lin Xiao suddenly had a sore nose. She took a deep breath, suppressed the tears in her eyes, and said with a forced smile:

"Everyone cheer up, it's a miracle that we escaped from death, as long as we work hard, we can definitely start all over again!"

"How to start all over again? The farmland is gone, the crops are destroyed, and the food has been washed away by the water. How can we start all over again?"

"Yeah, everything is gone, what to start with?"

"The house probably won't be able to accommodate people, how can I live in these days!"

Everyone vented their frustration and dissatisfaction.

Li Yuyan stood beside Lin Xiao, watching her silently, with a trace of pity and worry in his eyes.

"We still have brother workshops, hands and feet. Believe me, as long as we are willing to pay, we will definitely be able to rise again!"

Lin Xiao raised his head and said firmly.

Li Yuyan was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said:

"Yes, we still have Brothers Workshop, which is our cash cow. As long as it is there, everything lost will be doubled!"

Li Yuyan's eyes were full of confidence.

This sentence was like a life-saving straw, instantly igniting the hopes in everyone's hearts.

Yes, there is Brothers Workshop!
There is also a brother workshop!
Everyone cheered up again.

Lin Xiao breathed a sigh of relief, she looked at Li Yuyan with a touch of tenderness, and thought to herself, if Li Yuyan was a man and her social status could be restored to a woman, she would not mind sharing troubles with him!

Sensing Lin Xiao's gaze, Li Yuyan was slightly taken aback, his eyes flickered slightly, and immediately the corners of his mouth curled up, revealing an extremely charming smile.

In the evening, the flood in Linjia Village receded, and the village returned to calm.

The villagers stepped on the thick mud, step by step, and moved carefully towards their homes.

Standing on the high platform in the center of the village, Lin Xiao looked at those people who were struggling to move forward, feeling a little emotional in his heart.

The moment the villagers saw the flood, their faces turned pale with fright, and some even fainted from fright.

But now?

But a group of people fought bravely and rushed home regardless of the danger, as if they had been beaten with chicken blood!

The spirit of a group of people seems to have changed overnight!

The village head and others also rushed back from the brother workshop, and behind them were Gao Jin, brothers from the brother workshop, and a cart full of grain.

Seeing Gao Jin, Lin Xiao immediately showed joy on his face, and hurriedly greeted him:

"Gao Jin, why are you here?"

"Brother is in trouble, why not help? If you need me to do something, just ask!"

"Well, I'm not being polite! You arrange a few brothers to go to the next village to buy some sulfur or herbs that can sterilize. After the flood recedes, there will be a lot of bacteria. If the sterilization is not thorough at this time, it is easy to cause a plague."

Lin Xiao gave orders unhurriedly, without any fear at all because he had just escaped from a life-and-death situation.

"plague?"

Hearing the word plague, Gao Jin and the others were startled, and invariably recalled the scene of the outbreak of certain infectious diseases.

Gao Jin hurriedly arranged for a few brothers with fast feet to rush to the neighboring village.

Lin Xiao continued to order:
"Those of us who fled to the mountains have not eaten for a whole day, and I have to trouble you to ask a few brothers to set up a big pot and cook a big pot meal to replenish everyone's strength."

"no problem!"

Gao Jin readily agreed.

"The rest of the people will go to help the villagers clean up the silt, and you and I will go to the riverside to look at the embankment."

After Lin Xiao finished speaking, he walked to the river.

Li Yuyan and Gao Jin followed closely behind him.

This river is the only river in Linjia Village. During the dry season, the river will turn into a stream, and in winter, it will turn into a torrential river.

And every year when the autumn harvest and rice are harvested, many fish, shrimp and crabs will emerge from the river, so this river is called "Yulong River".

There is a high embankment built on one side of Yulong River.

Li Yuyan pushed hard on the embankment, but the embankment did not move at all. It was obvious that it had undergone special treatment and was very strong.

Li Yuyan looked at the embankment, puzzled and said:

"The embankment is probably three meters thick, and I can't move it with my strength. How could it burst?"

Lin Xiao snorted coldly, did not speak, but went straight to a place

Go to lower ground.

Although Li Yuyan and Gao Jin didn't understand what she wanted to do, they still followed her.

Here, part of the embankment has been washed away by the flood, leaving only the foundation standing alone on the river.

It was from this place that the flood flooded in, submerging the entire Lin Family Village!

"Didn't you say that the river bank will not burst? What is this?"

Lin Xiao glanced at the embankment, his face was full of anger.

She knew that the river embankment burst had nothing to do with Li Yuyan, but she still felt uncomfortable, so she could only vent it out in this way.

Li Yuyan didn't know how the embankment would burst, but he looked at the embankment with some doubts in his eyes.

It is not accidental that the river embankment burst, there must be something tricky in it!
Gao Jin looked at the river embankment with flickering eyes.

"Don't you think it's strange? The entire embankment is as hard as iron, but it broke in this place alone. Although the impact of the river is very strong, it won't destroy the embankment, right? And it's still in this place. "

Lin Xiao raised his eyebrows, and looked at the embankment with suspicion.

It is indeed a bit strange!
Gao Jin's eyes flickered, and he said:

"The embankment is destroyed, there must be something wrong!"

Li Yuyan looked at the embankment and also felt strange.

"Let me see."

Li Yuyan squatted down and observed carefully.

He put his hand on the embankment, felt the firmness of the embankment, and became more and more puzzled in his heart, and finally couldn't help asking:
"Ah Xiao, did you see what happened when the embankment burst?"
