Chapter 171: Something Happened in the Shrimp Pond

"Look, why are those kids running in the rain without umbrellas?"

"Oh yeah, who's child, it's raining so much, be careful to get wet and get sick..."

On both sides of the Qingshui River in Jiangnan Town in the evening.

A few children living in a village on the outskirts of the city had to go home through Jiangnan Town.

It was raining in the sky at the moment, and the rain was a little lighter than before, but people in the city who didn't bring umbrellas still had to find a way to avoid the rain.

When everyone was hiding under the eaves of a shop by the road, a group of children in colorful clothes ran past them.

They don't hold umbrellas, but they wear the same style of clothes.

The clothes covered from head to toe, covering the whole body except the face and feet.

"Dad, I'm back!"

The old Tang who delivered a month's worth of food to the Xiaohuang Village School, his son was also studying in the Xiaohuang Village School, had just separated from some of his classmates and ran into his own vegetable shop.

Old Tang saw that his son was wearing a new dress, and the clothes were still dripping, so he hurriedly tore off a cloth to wipe the sweat off his neck, to wipe the rain for his precious son.

But who knows, before he reached out his hand, his son ran to weigh the vegetables for the customers who bought them.

Old Tang picked up the raincoat curiously, and asked, "Son, what kind of clothes are these? Who gave them to you?"

"This is a raincoat issued by the academy. The master said that you won't be afraid of the rain if you wear this. Dad, do you think I'm not wet at all?"

"What raincoat?"

The people hiding from the rain outside the shop were originally curious about the clothes the children were wearing. Hearing this, everyone rushed into the shop one after another, picking up the clothes and touching them curiously.

"What kind of material is this, why haven't I seen it before?"

"This material is impermeable to water. Look, it's wet on the outside and dry on the inside!"

Everyone was amazed at the making and material of this raincoat. Looking at the chest of the raincoat, there were a few small characters: Jiangnan Town Raincoat.

"Since when did we have this thing in our town?"

"Boy of the Tang family, where did this dress come from?"

"It's from the academy. Like my shoes, it was given to us by the academy. It's something made by Mr. Zhu's family." The child replied again.

"Oh, Miss Zhu from Xiaohuang Village did it..."

Hearing the word "Xuetang" and the Mr. Zhu whose surname was added, everyone immediately knew who the child was talking about.

"This thing is good. With this, I won't be afraid to go out on rainy days."

"That's right, there is a lot of work in the field right now. If you have this thing, you don't have to wait for the rain to stop. I just don't know how to sell it?"

"..."

A rain, a few raincoats, while ensuring the health of the children, they advertised.

This is why Zhu Jiangjiang insisted on giving the children raincoats.

Small deserted village.

Zhu Jiangjiang looked at the patter, rain for two days, and was both happy and worried.

She is happy that as long as it rains and the children don't have classes on weekends and can run around, her raincoat can continue to promote.

What worries her is that the rainy season is coming, and she doesn't know what's going on with Pei Ji.

Is the embankment still reliable this year?Will the crops be flooded again?

Although I remember that there was no flood this year, Zhu Jiangjiang couldn't stand the inquiries of the villagers.

The painful lesson last year was still fresh in my memory, so everyone paid special attention to the rain and the river embankment.

"Little village chief, is Xiao Zhao back yet? How is the embankment repaired?"

Again!

One was wearing a straw hat, but his whole body was still soaked, his trouser legs were rolled up, and his legs were covered with mud. It looked like a villager who had just been to the field and was standing in front of Pei's fenced yard asking.

Zhu Jiangjiang smiled patiently at the villager and said, "Auntie, my husband-in-law hasn't come back yet, but don't worry too much, nothing will happen."

Despite her comfort, everyone in the village is still very worried.

When the rain was a little less, they went to the fields, and when there was too much rain, they tried to find a way to drain it. They were very busy.

On the other side of the tea tree, the villagers can't wait to open umbrellas for the tea tree to rest assured, and they have to go to the field two or three times a day to see it.

The villagers need a reassurance, and this reassurance is Pei Ji.

As long as Pei Ji came back and told them that the river bank would not break again, they would be relieved.

I just don't know when Pei Ji will come back.

Just as he was thinking about it, Shen Min rode into the yard wearing a raincoat and said anxiously, "Sister Zhu, something happened to the shrimp pond!"

"Shin Min? Why didn't you come home?"

Zhu Jiangjiang's first reaction when he saw Shen Min was: Today is the weekend, she should be at her own home in the city at this moment, why is she here?

"My brother said that he would come to the school to prepare lessons in advance, so I came here with my brother this morning."

Shen Min lives in the dormitory of the school with Shen Tan. This is the request of the two brothers and sisters, and it is convenient for them to live together to take care of each other.

The school is not too far away, Zhu Jiangjiang is convenient to find her for anything.

"Sister Zhu, stop talking, put on your raincoat and go to the shrimp pond!" Shen Min urged.

The two rode a school horse together, rushed into the rain together, and headed for the shrimp pond.

On the way, Shen Min roughly reported the matter to Zhu Jiangjiang.

It rained too much and for too long in the past two days, a lot of water accumulated in the shrimp pond, and the water in the river also rose. The water couldn't drain out, and the shrimp jumped into the river.

Zhu Dashan and the others were so anxious that they were helpless, so they came to Shen Min to explain the situation, and then Shen Min came to Zhu Jiangjiang.

shrimp pond.

As soon as Zhu Jiangjiang got off his horse, he saw several workers standing on the bank across the river and the shrimp pond.

They were wearing raincoats, but the water in the river and the shrimp pond had swollen up to their calves.

The river is fast-moving, and if you are not careful, you will be washed into the river. What's more, they are still supporting the bamboo sticks that prevent the shrimps from "jumping into the river", which looks even more dangerous.

Zhu Jiangjiang didn't care about anything else, touched the bank of the pond submerged by the muddy river, and shouted at Zhu Dashan and the others as he walked, "Go back quickly! It's dangerous!"

It's not worth risking your life to block for some running away shrimps.

"Put it down and go back!"

Zhu Jiangjiang just walked from the official road to the river, and felt the powerful river water hitting her feet. If she hadn't been walking steadily, she would have been washed away easily.

"But, what about the shrimp?!"

Zhu Dashan looked at those unstoppable shrimps and felt very distressed. The shrimps they had raised for half a year were about to come out of the pond. How could he let it go?

"Go back and drain the water into the field opposite the official road!" Zhu Jiangjiang shouted desperately.

It rained heavily again.

"Put it in the field?" Not only Zhu Dashan, but even Shen Min who came after him were surprised.

If the water is drained into the fields, the crops will definitely be affected. Moreover, the fields over there do not belong to the Pei family. Will everyone in the village agree?

"Stop talking, listen to me, I will bear all the consequences, go!"

Zhu Jiangjiang has already figured it out. At worst, she offends the villagers one more time and then pays compensation.
