Chapter 61 Urban Floods
"Tingting is going to change her teeth?" The old lady who was holding the little guy came over and took a look in surprise.

Su Qinghe complained: "Mother, you have raised so many children, there is no need to be surprised, Tingting is almost seven years old, isn't it normal to change teeth?"

The old lady rolled her eyes at Su Qinghe, "I don't have a regular face on weekdays, but I know how to tease children. I have been a father for more than a year, and I don't understand anything."

"Tell me, mother!" Su Qinghe said with a playful smile.

"You'll understand when you change your teeth obediently!" The old lady snorted coldly, looking at Su Xiaoting who was being inspected by Bai Zhi with her mouth wide open, "The lower front tooth has fallen out, and the roof must be lost!"

Before Su Qinghe thought about it, he was delighted to hear the old lady's words, "Grandmother, they all live in high-rise buildings now, not like they used to live in mud-brick houses, so where is the roof?"

"Hey, you are here to argue with me, aren't you?" The old lady was annoyed for a while, if she hadn't hugged the little guy, she would have slapped Su Qinghe for everything, "The roof is also a roof, at worst, you can lose the roof of the bed .Anyway, just throw it high.”

Su Qinghe accepted it when he saw it was good, and didn't continue to fight.

There has always been a saying in my hometown. When a child changes teeth, throw the lower teeth on the roof and the upper teeth on the bottom of the bed. When throwing them, they should stand upright and align their feet, so that the teeth will grow out quickly and neatly.

We all know that there is no scientific basis, because this is a sense of ritual.Our culture is actually full of a sense of ritual, but it is rejected by many so-called people who pursue a sense of ritual.

Obediently seeing Su Xiaoting's mouth wide open, she found it amusing, holding the unfinished watermelon meat in her hand, and opened her mouth wide like "ah".

When she opened her mouth, the watermelon juice in her mouth flowed out. The old lady asked Su Qinghe to hand her a tissue to help the little guy wipe his mouth.

Bai Zhi was also telling Su Xiaoting at this time, "You are starting to change your teeth now, eat less sweets. Rinse your mouth with warm water after eating, brush your teeth twice a day, once in the morning and once before going to bed at night, be serious. Brush, you know?"

"I see." Su Xiaoting nodded heavily, she could feel the deep concern in Bai Zhi's tone, that feeling was different from the concern of the villagers for her, just like a mother.

She felt a little sour in her heart, but she was more happy and enjoying it.

"Ah~ sister~" the little guy called Su Xiaoting, and handed over the watermelon in his hand.

This is want to play again.

"Sister, I also have watermelon." Su Xiaoting grinned, suddenly remembered that she had lost her teeth, she quickly pursed her lips, and at the same time covered her mouth with her hands, her eyes rolled around, secretly looking at Su Qinghe and Baizhi.

"It's normal for children to change their teeth, so you don't need to be shy. If anyone sees it later, they will say that you are caring about you, not laughing at you." Seeing this, Bai Zhi gave another burst of comfort.

Su Qinghe also said with a smile: "Tingting, what are you afraid of, look at my sister, she doesn't have a few teeth in her mouth, and doesn't she just open her mouth and giggle all day long?"

"My sister is teething!" Su Xiaoting said for the little guy, and then said, "I'm teething too."

Perhaps she thought it was interesting to grow teeth like her sister at such an age. Su Xiaoting laughed to herself, looked obediently and said, "Sister, I will grow teeth with you!"

"Ah~" The little guy bared his teeth and claws, responding to Su Xiaoting.

"What should you do with your teeth?" Su Qinghe asked Su Xiaoting curiously.

"Do you want to throw it on the roof?" Su Xiaoting asked, seeing Su Qinghe nodding, she thought for a while and said, "Then it won't rain, I'll throw it on the roof of the ancestral hall."

Su Qinghe was stunned by Su Xiaoting's words. There is no temple in Shuangtang Village. The New Year's Eve priests have to worship the gods before going to the temple next door to worship the Bodhisattva, the God of Earth, and Mrs. Xian Tai.Usually, they go to the ancestral hall to pay homage to their ancestors.

In the early years when the mud-brick houses were demolished in the village, funds were raised to rebuild the ancestral hall, and the original shape was still maintained.

Su Qinghe gave Su Xiaoting a thumbs up, "Yes, let the ancestors bless you!"

Su Xiaoting pursed her lips and smiled, Su Qinghe wanted to laugh when she saw it, the little girl was quite careful about her image.

In the afternoon, Su Qinghe woke up from a nap, the heavy rain was still falling, and the rain did not seem to abate.

The old lady sat at the door, turned her head to look at Su Qinghe, and then turned back to look outside, "It hasn't rained so much for so long, I'm afraid there will be a flood."

Su Qinghe is not as optimistic as he was two days ago. There have been heavy rains for several days in a row, let alone Yehe City, a backward fourth-tier city, even in a super-rich first-tier city like Nandu. Can stand it.

At this moment, Su Qinghe's cell phone rang, and he took it out to see that it was Luo Qiping calling, his heart skipped a beat, and a bad thought flooded his mind.

Sure enough, as soon as the phone was connected, Luo Qiping said very anxiously: "Ahe, the city is flooded, how is your place?"

"I didn't go out to see. I don't know what's going on outside now. But my house is fine for the time being." Su Qinghe looked out, but the fence and the closed courtyard gate blocked his sight.

"The terrain of Nanling Town is relatively high, so there should be no problem at present, but it will be hard to say if the rain continues for two or three days." Luo Qiping said loudly. He was probably outside, and the environment was relatively noisy. "You must Pay attention to safety, if the situation is not right, go upstairs, nothing is more important than your own safety. The key is not to go to the river or the mountain, you know?"

"Understood, uncle, you also pay attention to safety."

"Stop talking, I'm going to be busy, remember to pay attention to safety!"

Seeing Su Qinghe put down his phone, the old lady who had been paying attention to him asked, "What's the matter, why is your uncle calling you?"

"There's a flood in the urban area." Su Qinghe frowned, looking at the messages from Su Qinghai, Su Fu, and Su Quan on his phone.

Mainly watching the short videos of urban floods they reposted in the group or circle of friends, Su Qinghe took a rough look, and the water in the more serious places has reached the depth of a person's chest.

Hearing that the thing she had been dreading had happened, the old lady sighed, "Be prepared, seeing how the rain is falling, I don't know when it will stop."

"I'll go to the river to have a look." Su Qinghe took out his raincoat and put it on. He was basically completely unclear about the situation outside, and he was a little flustered.

"Be careful, don't get too close." The old lady reminded.

In response, Su Qinghe went out.

The small river is on the opposite side of the township road, and Su Qinghe walked towards the head of the village as soon as he left the house. He didn't find any major changes along the way, but there was more water on the side of the road.

With such a heavy rain, it is normal that there will be more water than normal rainy days.

When passing by my uncle's house, I happened to meet Su Qinghai who also came out in a raincoat, Su Qinghe asked, "Where are you going?"

"Go to the riverside and have a look, don't worry if you don't look at it!" Su Qinghai's purpose is the same as Su Qinghe's, the water level of the river will definitely rise sharply in this kind of weather, the main reason is to see how much it has risen now.
