March is the season when flowers are everywhere and spring is in full bloom.

Mr. Xia was leaning on a cane and sitting on the big stone in front of the village committee, constantly looking up at the sky.

"Grandpa Third, what are you looking at? Isn't it just a few clouds?" Chen Erniu, who had just finished lunch and walked out, asked with a smile.

Mr. Xia's eyes narrowed into a thin line. After he saw clearly that it was Chen Erniu, he said: "Er Niu! You are now a worker in the greenhouse, so you have to be very careful. Mr. Xia is now like this."

The color is a bit off, it feels like it’s going to rain heavily.”

"Don't be ridiculous, old man. It's only been a few months now, and the heavy rains there, even a light rain, can be considered a good thing." Chen Erniu said, turned around and went to Zhao Hong's vegetable greenhouse.

Mr. Xia shook his head helplessly, but Chen Erniu was right. This place has suffered from severe drought in spring for more than ten years in a row, and seeds cannot be planted in the ground. In autumn, the rain is okay, but there is no planting in spring, so we can take it in autumn.

What’s the gain? It’s no longer reliable to rely on God.

In the afternoon, the sky was covered with dark clouds, and there were a few faint sounds of thunder. But no one would believe that there would be heavy rains in spring, so everything was normal. What were you doing? It seemed like it was raining.

It's just God's business.

At night, there was thunder and lightning in the sky. People who had worked hard all day did not take it seriously and fell asleep early.

In the vegetable greenhouse in Xichuanheba to the west of Xiping Village, the lights were still on. Zhao Hong was sitting on the ground, studying a few sick tomatoes. Zhang Er, who had just come back from relieving himself outside, said with a somewhat nervous expression: "Zhao Hong

, it seems like it’s going to rain heavily.”

Chen Erniu, who was lying on the bed at the door, said confusedly: "Isn't it a good time to rain heavily? You are so worried."

At this moment, there was a sudden thunder and lightning, and a heavy rain came instantly, as if it was falling from the sky. Chen Erniu stood up and shouted excitedly: "It's raining, it's finally raining, haha, we are in Xiping

The village will have a bumper harvest this year"

The thunder became louder and louder, the rain became heavier, and lightning lit up the entire night sky, making people feel an invisible fear. Soon, the greenhouse began to leak, and the water outside the door quickly overflowed.

The steps at the door flow into the greenhouse.

The Xichuan River, which had not heard any sound for many years, made a terrible sound of water flow, and the sound became louder and louder.

"Zhao Hong, something is wrong." Zhang Er's expression was extremely nervous.

Chen Erniu, who had always been angry, became mute at this time. This was the first time in his life that he had seen such heavy rain. Zhao Hong's face was livid, but in fact, she was equally nervous in her heart.

At this moment, there was a sound of floods breaking down the river dam outside. Zhao Hong was stunned, immediately realized what was happening, and shouted: "Run quickly."

Several people rushed out of the greenhouse and ran towards a small hill on the side. It was raining heavily, and the water under their feet became a small river. In the dark night, only a vast expanse of white could be seen.

Zhao Hong and the others were rolling and crawling, and they didn't know when they lost their shoes. As soon as they climbed up the hill, the roaring water, carrying soil and some trees, rushed past their feet.

.

At this time, Xiping Village was in chaos, with ghosts crying and wolves howling.

The flood rushed into the village, and several weak mud houses at the entrance of the village disappeared with the water. The sleeping people did not understand what happened for a moment, and some of them were confused and were rushed out of their rooms by the flood.

.

Chickens were flying, dogs were barking, and people were shouting. This night was indescribably terrifying.

Strangely, before six o'clock, Xia Jian was not sleepy at all, and he felt an indescribable discomfort in his heart. It would be better to get up early than to sleep like this. He packed up and made a set of old figures in the yard for him to learn new things.

He took his fist and took Xiao Hei for a lap in the park.

When she came back, Lao Xiao was making breakfast. During this period, Xiao Xiao lived here, and she would help Lao Xiao every day. But as soon as Xiao Xiao's leg healed, she asked Zhang Sangui to drive him to the provincial capital.

Xia Jian hesitated for a moment, but then walked into the kitchen. He couldn't always let an old man cook for him! Everyone was eager to pick up the ingredients, and with the combined efforts of the two of them, breakfast was quickly prepared.

Lao Xiao was drinking porridge and suddenly said: "My child, you have been out for so long, it's time to go home and take a look."

"I think so too! You see that Xiao Xiao's foot is healed. Just mobilize and let her go back to work. I will go home immediately, okay?" Xia Jian stopped his chopsticks and looked pleading.

.

Lao Xiao glanced at Xia Jian and said with a smile: "You are making excuses again. There is no conflict between work and going home. You are the boss and there are so many people under you. You can't go where you have arranged. You have to be alone."

Carrying it on, it’s not possible to do work like this.”

Xia Jian nodded silently. The old man was right, it was time for him to be liberated.

After Zhang Sangui left, Wang Lin wanted to assign a new driver to Xia Jian, but Xia Jian refused. It felt good to take the bus. It was a boring day at work and it was nice to go out and change the environment.

The first thing he did when he got to work, Xia Jian held a high-level meeting of the company, reiterated that he had delegated power, and he also had to learn to be a hands-off shopkeeper. However, the company has been running normally recently, with several entertainment venues under his name.

, after the reorganization, the business has been greatly improved. The business of several cargo yards has been very stable. It is just Fengyuan Mining's matter that is still hanging here.

Soon it was afternoon. When Xia Jian was correcting documents, Fang Fang walked in. This guy has become more and more unruly recently. Entering the office was like entering her home without knocking on the door.

"Remember, knock on the door the next time you come in," Xia Jian raised his head and reminded Fang Fang.

Fang Fang smiled slightly and said, "I forgot."

"Then what do you remember? It's not just wearing a belt!" Xia Jian sometimes jokes, and he and Fang Fang are very familiar with each other.

Fang Fang sat down in front of him and said mischievously: "Girls usually don't wear belts, but I do." After saying that, she couldn't help but laugh.

Xia Jian was slightly amused and asked: "What's the matter? Tell me quickly, I'm a little busy."

"Tch! You are the only one busy in the whole world." Xiao Xiao muttered in a low voice, and then said: "Zhang Sangui is not here, I can drive for you. This is my home phone number. If it is inconvenient for you to go out after work, you can call

Under normal circumstances, I'm on my home phone number," Fang Fang said, putting a small note on Xia Jian's desk.

Xia Jian didn't even raise his head, and just said: "Thank you!" Fang Fang saw that Xia Jian was busy working, so she left knowingly.

As soon as Fang Fang left, Xia Jian took the note on the table and thought to himself, I won't go out at night. Even if I go out, I can walk. Why bother and call you to drive? The car is not

I'm still at the company, and after all this fussing, all the things I want to do are gone.

Xia Jian flicked the note and threw it into the trash can. But then he thought about it. He was not afraid of ten thousand, but just in case. If something happened to him in an emergency, wouldn't he just make a call? Xia Jian hurriedly

He found the note again and put it in his coat pocket.

At this moment, the phone on the table rang. When Xia Jian heard that it was an insider, he grabbed it: "Hey! What's going on?"

"Mr. Xia, the car has been prepared for you. From today on, Fang Fang will temporarily drive it for you!" It was Wang Lin's voice.

Xia Jian was confused. Didn't he agree that he wouldn't need a car during this period? Wang Lin wouldn't forget it so quickly! Wang Lin then said, "It was Fang Fang who said you wanted to take the new one bought by the company."

A BMW, I will arrange it for you."

After hanging up the phone, Xia Jian finally understood that it was all this girl's attention, and he was using his banner to see how I would deal with you.

As soon as she got off work, Fang Fang drove her new car in front of the glass door of the lobby on the first floor, attracting many people to come and watch. After all, there were not many cars of this quality on the road. This was all Xiao Xiao's idea. What should be improved?

The company's image was built with hundreds of thousands of dollars, and he felt quite proud of whichever Santana he got to ride in.

Soon they arrived home, and he and Lao Xiao worked together. When the news network started, they also had dinner. Suddenly, a familiar picture of Xia Jian appeared on the TV, rows of adobe houses, and each one was horrified.

With a face and a house that was washed away by the flood, an unkempt woman with muddy hands faced the camera and cried. Isn’t she Aunt Zhang from Xiping Village?

The bowl fell from Xia Jian's hand, fell to the ground, and shattered into pieces with a clatter. He didn't hear anything said on the TV. He just thought silently in his heart that Xiping Village suffered a natural disaster that could not be seen in a century.
