Chapter 23 Flash floods
As we were talking inside the house, the rain outside the house became heavier and heavier, rustling.
After spring, the rain seemed to have never stopped, and the muddy ground was muddy.
Ding He followed Chunjiang's words and cursed at Ye Kui: "Your brother spent so much money in my family, and he didn't go to the third exam! I've said a long time ago that they shouldn't be taken in!"
"You said that Lord Jin had a conversation with you, so he left first. When you parted and returned to the inn, he came to look for you again?" Ye Kui ignored Ding He and thought it was a dog barking.
Chunjiang nodded: "Mr. Jin said that Xiaoshu was very talented and was a talent that could be made, so he invited us to live in his house together."
"But when the third exam started, you couldn't find Xiao Shu's people, so you went there by yourself. After the exam, you were going to Master Jin to find someone, but was stopped by the servant who was guarding the gate. He only said that Master Jin had left Hongdu?" Ye Kui extracted Chunjiang's words just now.
"That's how it is, but in my opinion, perhaps Lord Jin has taken a fancy to Xiao Shu's intentional cultivation, so there is no need to worry at all." Chunjiang looked at everyone's faces and said carefully.
Ye Kui said firmly: "I want to find him!"
"No!" Ding He grabbed Ye Kui's sleeve and shouted, "I have been raising it for so many years in vain. Who knows if she will come back again? She shouldn't have left these people at the beginning. Now, one died and one disappeared. Now that there is only one left, she still wants to run away?"
Ye Kui was already worried about Ye Shu's affairs and was full of anxiety. When she suddenly heard Ding He's words, she became more annoyed. She twisted her body, and she suddenly crawled out of Ding He's hands like a slippery loach. Seeing that Ding He was about to pull, her eyes turned cold and her right elbow suddenly hit her back.
"Ouch - murdered someone-" Ding He shouted like a pig, shocking Mei to hurry up and look.
Although she didn't like Ding He, they were a family. Ding He was even more of Chunjiang's grandmother. Now she saw her rolling on the ground with her stomach covering her stomach and screaming. If something really happened, wouldn't it be her fault again? Mei couldn't help but get angry and scold Ye Kui: "Since you have become my daughter, you are also the granddaughter of the Ding family. How can you do the granddaughter attack the grandmother? I see that you have eaten all these years of food in the dog's belly!"
After saying this, the room suddenly became silent.
Although Mei's temper is not as good as the top, it is the first time that everyone has seen such a big anger.
The rain outside the house was getting heavier and heavier, and the water curtain stirred tightly blocked the scene outside the door.
Ye Kui sighed and called out, "Mom..."
Mei was shocked when she heard the sound. She looked up and looked at Ye Kui for a while. Then she lowered her head and helped Ding He up from the ground. Without looking at Ye Kui, she said, "Chunlan, you take Xiao Yezi back to the house."
When everyone said this, there was nothing they could not understand.
Ding He clapped his hands and smiled: "You are not stupid. You can't do a lose-loss business. Chunlan is not going to go quickly! Look at her well so that you won't run away!"
Mei's face was dark and extremely ugly, and she urged Chunlan: "Didn't you listen to your grandma? Why don't you go quickly!"
Ye Kui held her hands aside, as if she felt cold. Chunlan came to pull her, but she didn't hide. She strode to the door and laughed: "Mom, since you don't want me to go, then who will ask Xiao Shu to come back?"
The raindrops falling downward wet her face, and her wet hair on her temples was sticking to her white porcelain face, which made her feel cold and decisive. Seeing Mei was stunned, the girl in front of her seemed to be like she had never known her before, which made people suddenly dare not look at her. She turned her face away and said in a deep voice: "You haven't even been to the town several times, why did you go to find someone in Shanghong? You're so alone, just wait until your father comes back. Besides, no one can tell what Xiao Shu is going on now. He will offend Master Renguan after waiting rashly."
——It has missed Chunjiang's future.
The last sentence was almost stuck between her teeth, but Ye Kui could already hear it.
After all, Chunjiang is her biological son.
Ye Kui's sarcastic smile flew in an instant.
Mei saw it with a sharp eye and was annoyed. She simply asked Chunlan to pick up a basket of eggs to send Ding He back, but she personally sent Ye Kui back to the house.
"Xiao Yezi, how did you think of your mother to you for so many years?" Sitting beside the bed, Mei's face was slightly relaxed, "Why can't you listen to your mother once? Xiao Shu followed Lord Jin well, maybe he could be an official in the future. What are you worried about?"
Ye Kui nodded in agreement.
Mei then laughed: "Stop and wait until your father comes back, let's find a way."
As long as Ye Kui doesn't make a fuss to find someone in Hongdu, she will not be afraid that her years of thought will be wasted. No matter what, she treats her daughter-in-law as her daughter-in-law who has been raising children for so many years, and she must not go with her. As for Ye Shu, the people will not fight with the officials. If they cause trouble, it will hurt Chunjiang, how good is it? It's better to just wait like that.
She had a good plan, but she didn't know that Ye Kui had already made a decision in her heart.
The Ye family is in Fengcheng, the capital of the Great Yue Empire. The Ye family is a high-ranking family and has a lot of connections in the court. Lord Jin suddenly took Xiao Shu away, and she had to be suspicious. They were just two ordinary students, so why did he call him, as the chief examiner, to take a fancy to him? He even invited them to live in his mansion. How could this matter be gone?
It was raining heavily outside and the thunder was faintly lit.
The heavy rain has been going on for many days, but it has never stopped.
In the evening, Mei pushed the door and came in, holding the food in her hand, and handed her chopsticks attentively: "Mom has made your favorite wine lees."
The sound of rain in my ears is rustling,
Mei sat down beside her and said with a smile: "Chunjiang said he did well in the exam and wanted to be a scholar. If he passed the Juren again the next day, you can enjoy the happiness."
Enjoy happiness?
He raised her as a child bride for many years without hiding it, so that she can enjoy her happiness?
How could she not know how Chunjiang was studying? She used such words to coax her. Mei Shi really thought she was a twelve or twelve-year-old girl.
"Xiao Yezi, mom knows that you are worried about Xiao Shu, but even if we go to Hongdu, we are afraid we won't be able to see Lord Jin. Besides, Chunjiang said that people have left Hongdu, and the sky is vast and the earth is great, where can we go to find him?"
Ye Kui put down the bowls and chopsticks, tears in his eyes instantly fell, and he choked and said, "Mom, what if I can't see him again in the future?"
Seeing that she finally spoke, Mei cried to tears again. She felt a little soft-hearted and thought she had figured it out. She hurriedly approached her and comforted her: "How could that be! Actually, Chunjiang said that Lord Jin had gone to Fengcheng, where is that Fengcheng? Under the feet of the emperor! Just wait for Xiaoshu to come back with a drum and drum..."
But as soon as he approached, his eyes suddenly turned dizzy, his body shook his head and hit the head of the bed. Before he could scream in pain, his mouth was tightly covered by Ye Kui.
"I'm sorry, mom!" Ye Kui gritted her teeth and whispered, and slashed Mei's neck hard with one hand.
Mei groaned and fainted.
Ye Kui hurriedly got up and pushed the door out.
The heavy rain came towards her, and she was soaked all over. The rain was too heavy, too big, so big that she couldn't even see the road clearly.
She strides past the threshold, thinking in her heart.
There are only two roads to go out, walking through the main entrance or walking along the side road. There is a narrow gap beside the west room of Ding's family that allows thin people to pass through. Then, some further forwards are the fields. If she walks fast, she can still go to see Chi Po before they discover it and ask for some trouble.
She walked in the rain, but suddenly someone appeared around the corner.
The sound of rain was so loud that the man had obviously recognized her, who was soaked all over.
——It’s spring.
Ye Kui was frightened and couldn't help but be at a loss. She could attack Mei, but she couldn't bear to attack Chunbo! However, at this moment, Chunbo quickly walked past her with a small umbrella, muttering, "I didn't see my third sister, I didn't see it..."
A soft childish voice lingered in her ears. She wanted to smile, but she felt her eyes burning, and tears rolled down with the rain.
She strode and ran.
The ridges under her feet were washed by rain for a long time and turned into wet mud, which was touching people's feet and could not move forward. She ran towards the bamboo forest with difficulty, but suddenly heard a loud rumbling sound from the direction of Xining Mountain!
It was clearly far away, but the sound seemed to be near to my ears!
Her feet trembled violently, and she swayed and fell to the ground.
As the sky was spinning, someone was shouting loudly: "I've got a dragon--"
Before she could look up, a huge force was coming towards her. She felt that the darkness in front of her eyes was no longer aware of human affairs.
...
This year was the eighteenth year of Xicheng, spring was about to pass away and summer was not coming.
Hongdu has been raining for several days, causing rivers to rise, wells overflow, and mountains collapse and water to surge. The water comes out, killing more than a hundred people, and injuring countless people. The temple houses and crops are destroyed, and the disaster victims are displaced.
