Chapter 24 The flood receded
Cheng Haixiang took some people back to tidy up. When they returned to the village, they found that after the flood, there was silt everywhere. When the flood came, many houses collapsed!
There was nothing wrong with their house and factory, except that some of the furniture at home was soaked in water and there was so much mud in the house.
The flood was almost passed. They were united and there were no casualties.
Their village is not the one closest to the sea. All their villages are like this. They have suffered heavy losses, and other villages are not much better!
In fact, Honglao has receded long ago, but they are at the seaside, and the seawater has high tide every day, and the original water has not receded. They can only wait until the seawater has really receded before they go down the mountain to tidy up their houses, fields, and fish ponds!
Cheng Haixiang took a look at the situation at home, then went to the factory to see and start working!
He was leaving in a hurry and the machines were not moved away. When he opened the door and entered the factory, he saw only those machines that had been soaked in sea water and silt, and the bottoms were all rusty!
Maintaining the machine is another major project!
It will be busy for a while with various inspections and repairs.
Every place that has been soaked in sea water must be disinfected.
Cheng Haixiang and his people took care of their homes first. Those whose houses were collapsed cannot build houses immediately now!
His sense of responsibility makes him look bad in front of the crying man. He wants to arrange them in an unoccupied house in the village!
There are a few former wealthy households that were later used as residences for educated youths. The educated youths didn’t have enough room to live in, so they were cleared out first!
Cheng Haixiang's ancestors were also from a wealthy family, but back then, his father donated the family property. The current factory is also the property of their ancestors, and they found a position as factory director!
In these years of chaos, they also used proof of donation of family property to escape those people... causing trouble.
Cheng Haixiang arranged for others to clean up the mud, but he couldn't take care of his own family, so he went to town again to get their food for help!
After two days of busy work, I cleaned up a bit. I thought of the people who had no food to eat on the mountain, so I took people up the mountain and picked up the villagers!
When Cheng Xiwen woke up, she found that she had arrived. She was sleeping on a bed, and there was no mosquito net on the bed. This room was a little damp. The walls in the room were soaked. The room had been cleaned. There were stains on the walls. Traces of mud.
Are you back home?
This is their home, and the plot in the book begins, the beginning of changing destiny!
Outside her parking room, eight brothers were washing furniture under the leadership of their mother. The furniture that had been soaked was very dirty. I wonder if the well water soaked in sea water can still be used?
Maybe the water in the well also needs to be cleaned, right?
Cheng Xiwen can only turn over but cannot get out of bed. Staying in bed is boring!
I slapped my hands and feet on the bed, trying to attract the attention of the people outside the house, so I could take him out and let him see the scene outside!
Her action attracted the attention of Zhao Jiasui outside, who walked in, followed by eight Panmei whose clothes were wet.
"Oh, the weeds are awake, are you hungry? Mom cooked porridge and water for you!"
Zhao Jiasui knew that her daughter was older now and needed to eat some supplementary food.
"Haha, sister is awake? I'm home, and there's some porridge to eat."
A brother who was so hungry a few days ago didn't look happy. Do you know if they can eat enough? Can these eight rice buckets be full if they eat porridge and water?
This is not what she cares about. Don't call him selfish. As long as she is full, nothing else matters!
Zhao Jiasui first asked her eldest son to bring her sister's porridge. She first picked up her daughter to make her weak, and then breastfed her.
Let the sons put the porridge on the table and let them go out to work!
Cheng Xiwen was full after eating milk and porridge, but she did not let her mother go. She did not want to lie down on the bed. She wanted to go outside and have a look!
Zhao Jiasui has no choice but to carry her daughter on her back. Carrying her daughter on her back makes her tired from work, which has become the norm for women!
Cheng Xiwen met her father when she was having dinner. The dinner was white porridge, and the relief food was old rice. There were some chaff in it, and she didn't bother to clean it up!
Now they have money but it is difficult to buy rice. The price of everything has been reduced. When they went to the town, the shops were flooded and the shops were also cleaning up! The couple lay on the bed at night, sighing in comfort. It had been a long time since they had slept in such a comfortable bed!
The weather is hot, and the house that has been soaked is not so hot!
Cheng Xiwen found that there was a mosquito net on the bed at night. After being smoked by mosquitoes, the place had been disinfected, and there was a smell of lime everywhere.
A little baby has the soul of an adult, but that's not good at all. It's so embarrassing when parents are affectionate!
What is she going to do now?
Putting her thoughts into the room, she found that her parents were not paying attention to her, so she entered the space comfortably and lay down, ignoring the outside and sleeping!
She slept comfortably, and the couple on the bed was there. Ten minutes later, she still discovered that her daughter was missing!
“Where are the weeds?”
Thinking that their daughter had fallen under the bed, they got up and rummaged under the bed, rummaging through boxes and cabinets. Looking at the closed door, the couple was so frightened that they almost jumped out of their wits!
"Husband, what should I do if the weeds are gone?"
"Wife, it's all my fault, blame me...!"
Zhao Jiasui also covered his head with self-blame Face, crying!
“Honey, don’t cry, let’s search in the house!”
Cheng Haixiang opened the door and saw that the living room was empty after turning on the lights. The door to his sons' room was also closed. It was impossible to enter his son's room!
Their house has a lot of rooms, but because some people have no house to live in this time, they arranged for some people to live in their house and separated their house to allow others to stay temporarily!
Their house is a courtyard with two entrances. They live in the main room and have a kitchen!
In the house, there are six families living in the front and backyard!
Those who live in their homes temporarily have had their houses knocked down and have not yet been able to build a house!
There are still some people in the village who have arranged to go to other people's homes. At this time, they can't disturb others by looking for their children. The couple can only worry!
The couple returned to bed again, Zhao Jiasui was crying "woo woo", Cheng Haixiang beat his chest with self-blame, then hugged his wife and sighed!
Be careful to blame yourself. If you hadn't been able to control yourself, you wouldn't have lost your daughter!
His little cotton-padded jacket, which was only a few months old and had been sentenced to several years..., just disappeared. They didn't believe that a thief would steal their child!
Cheng Xiwen was awakened by her mother's cry in the space. She vaguely heard her mother's cry. She turned over. She wanted to go back to sleep, but she heard her father's voice again!
She couldn't pretend to be dead in the space, because she was afraid that her parents were missing, so she searched everywhere for them!
She is still a little baby who needs to be taken care of and fed by her parents. There are too many inconveniences!
Cheng Xiwen could only come out again and lie on the bed pretending to be dead!
I found that my parents didn’t notice and hit the bed board with my feet!
“咚”
The couple, who were holding each other while crying, heard a noise and then saw their daughter in bed. They were pleasantly surprised!
“Ah, weeds, where are the weeds here?”
The couple didn’t believe their eyes. Their daughter was not on the bed just now. They looked around and couldn’t find it. Could it be? Is the ghost covering your eyes?
At this moment, Zhao Jiasui held her lost daughter in her arms, not caring whether her daughter would be out of breath in her arms.
Cheng Haixiang could only use his long arms to hold the mother and daughter in his arms!
Cheng Xiwen...
I can't speak, there is something wrong here, I am hugged so tightly, the weather is so hot!
Ahhhh!
She started talking baby talk. How could these parents care about what their daughter said?
Turn off the lights and go to sleep!
Cheng Xiwen...does she want to disappear for a while?
Forget it, don’t scare them!
