The reborn peasant girl has space for farming

Chapter 118 Ruins
In the dark night, countless stars dotted the lonely starry sky. The dark night revealed an endless deep blue that stretched far into the distance.

The raging fire in the Yao family compound has been extinguished, but the thick smoke remains in the air for a long time and is difficult to disperse. The entire village has caused immeasurable losses in the hearts of the villagers. There are ruins everywhere, and the poor villagers are still not there. To be able to get over the panic and grief of this fire.

They huddled next to each other in the patio that had been burned out, looking at the tragic scene in front of them with sad eyes.After a night of putting out fires, the men were tired and exhausted.Even though the fire has been put out now, there is no extra energy to do anything.

Some of the women were holding their children in their arms, and some were holding the scattered belongings they had rescued during their escape. They cuddled together in small groups, looking at the depressing scene in front of them. After all, they couldn't help but feel desolate in their hearts and whispered. sobbing.

Time flies by...

The sky was slightly brighter, and the sun rose slowly, finally casting a warm light on the dark night.After people cuddled up and took a short rest, they began to regain some of their state.

Now that the fire has occurred, what we need to do now is not to remember the past, but to face the future bravely.

"Folks!" the village chief's voice came, with a burst of excitement: "It's dawn, we should all cheer up! Although we are facing such a tragic scene now, we at least have to go to our respective houses to take a look. Is there anything that hasn’t been burned by the fire and can still be used?”

Everyone raised their heads and looked at the village chief, their eyes full of despair.The fire was so big, where else could anything be used?It seems that no one’s hearts can be moved.

The village chief looked at the disappointed villagers and continued: "Since the fire has already occurred, what's the use of everyone being sad here? Cheer up and go back to your own homes to look around. Maybe there is something else there? What things can be used? Iron pots! Hoes! These things will not be burned. We can pick up a little bit now, which is equivalent to saving us money! Otherwise, when the time comes, even Don’t you have to spend money to buy a needle?”

The villagers looked at each other and seemed to think that what the village chief said made sense.

Now that things have happened, it really doesn't make much sense to remain immersed in grief.At this juncture, it’s really important to save whatever you can for your home.

Finally, under the leadership of the village chief, the villagers began to return to the ruins to look for anything worth preserving in their homes.

There are traces of being burned by fire everywhere. Burnt property is scattered everywhere in the house, and there are piles of ashes, as if to announce to the villagers what they have achieved last night.For example, Bai Meixi's family was not devoured by the fire, and there were only three in the entire Yao family compound. It was already a miracle in this fire.

Bai Meixi also participated in this search together with her family. In this case, everyone has to twist together like a rope and work as one to get through this difficult moment.

The walls in the kitchen are covered with soot from fires. Because of the firewood, the kitchen is always particularly hot.A half-burnt beam lay across the stove, and the iron pot still sat on the stove.

Bai Meixi pushed the beam, but her strength was a little weak and she didn't push it.

Since yesterday, she has been busy and busy, which has indeed exhausted a lot of energy.Because after returning to the room, everyone in the family huddled in the same room to take a brief rest, so she did not have the opportunity to enter her own space, but drank a glass of spiritual spring water to replenish herself with some strength.

Therefore, Bai Meixi's mental condition seems not to be very good today.

Cheng Haiyi found a few hoes and shovels from the corner. Although there was not much left of the handles that had been burned, they could be used again by adding a few wooden sticks and polishing them.When he turned around, he saw Bai Meixi pushing the beam, so he quickly walked over and helped her push it away.Looking at Bai Meixi who was a little weak, and hearing all the stories of Bai Meixi's courageous rescue of him, when Cheng Haiyi looked at her again, in addition to his admiration for her, he felt more admiration and gratitude.

He believes that he is a soldier. In the face of the ruthless fire, he is not afraid of dangers, plans his life, and bravely rushes into the fire to save the lives of others. This is his duty as a soldier.But he never thought that such a small Bai Meixi would have a fearless heart.

How much courage did it take for her to resolutely rush into the fire?

From this incident, Cheng Haiyi could also deeply feel that Bai Meixi's friendship for him was so sincere and so fierce.

Bai Meixi inevitably felt a little embarrassed when she saw Cheng Haiyi looking at her with such affection. After all, there were so many villagers coming and going.Bai Meixi pointed to the iron pot on the stove and said, "I think this pot is quite good and can be used."

As Bai Meixi spoke, she picked up the big iron pot from the stove and prepared to put it in the yard.At this time, it is no longer time to worry about who owns who, everything is put together, and everyone can use it together before the renovation of the village is completed.

Bai Meixi had just walked to the door when she heard Cheng Haiyi's voice: "Xiao Mei."

Bai Meixi paused, listening to his hoarse yet affectionate whisper, turned around and looked at him: "Huh? What's wrong?"

"Thank you!" Cheng Haiyi no longer knew how to express his gratitude to Bai Meixi. In the end, he condensed all his feelings into these three words.

Bai Meixi smiled slightly and said to Cheng Haiyi, "We are husband and wife. It's too polite to say thank you."

yes!Between husband and wife, saying thank you is inevitably a little too unfamiliar.But Cheng Haiyi really couldn't be so selfish and bury Bai Meixi's rescue of him in his heart, pretending that nothing had happened, and not say anything at all.

"I will protect you with my whole life." Cheng Haiyi said.

"I know." Bai Meixi smiled: "You have said it before."

Bai Meixi turned around, and just about to take a step forward, she turned back and said to Cheng Haiyi: "Don't think too much, we are husband and wife and we have to share adversity together. Everyone is in trouble now, and that's not what I'm talking about. When the time comes, help the villagers find useful things first!"

Bai Meixi can understand Cheng Haiyi's inner feelings. He is grateful to himself at this moment.It is said that husband and wife are like birds in the same forest. When disaster strikes, they fly separately.But when Cheng Haiyi was in a life-and-death situation, Bai Meixi didn't fly away. Instead, she made a decision to fly into the flames.This must be very shocking to Cheng Haiyi.

But Bai Meixi didn't want Cheng Haiyi to have too much psychological burden in his heart, so he could only comfort him like this.
