Reborn in the 1980s: A scientific research leader cultivates the land to serve the motherland

Chapter 789 Extra Story 31
Early the next morning, the heavy rain finally stopped, and An Ning and Jiang Xia drained the water from the house, but there was still a lot of yellow mud left on the ground.

"Then flush the water pipe."

"alright."

Although I don’t want to use water, manual cleaning is too slow.

Jiang Xia put on a one-piece raincoat and started washing the water pipe in the yard. An Ning stood in the yard and thought about what to do in the yard.

At this time, the yard was completely covered with water, and you had to wear boots to go out. There was really no complete and good road.

The main reason is that too much water has come in, and it seems that it will take a day or two for all the water to seep in.

"At home! Oh, how come there is so much water? Your home is closest to the mountain pass. This is true."

Diagonally across the street, the woman who first came to inquire about An Ning and Jiang Xia's situation came again. She stood at the door and talked a lot. An Ning just waved her hand and said that she couldn't go out and wouldn't go through yet.

The two of them just wanted to find a place to have a good rest, and didn't really want to get involved with the outside world.

So they hardly knew anyone in this village.

"You don't have to move. How long will this old water have to be drained by itself? Just wait!"

The woman left.

What are you waiting for?
An Ning didn't understand.

A few minutes later, the woman came back, followed by several men in their 60s and s, carrying shovels.

As soon as they entered the yard, the group started working, helping An Ning drain water.

They planned to dig a path to lead the water out of the yard, and if it couldn't be led out, they would use shovels to get it out bit by bit.

"No, no, really no, we can just do it ourselves slowly."

An Ning blocked her, she didn't want to owe a favor.

"It's okay. This is what we do here. A heavy rain can wash down some mountains and rivers, but it's okay. I've lived here all my life and there has never been a flood."

"I'm telling you, we don't have many young people here anymore. They all go out to work. It's normal for these few families to help each other." The woman opened her mouth and didn't give An Ning a chance to refute.

Besides, since everyone else had done it, An Ning couldn't say anything except thank you.

Many people have great strength. In half a day, the yard was pretty good. Even the remaining yellow mud was almost washed away with water pipes.

Fortunately, the ground in the yard was paved with red bricks, otherwise it would not have been cleaned up.

An Ning stayed to help the workers eat, but they refused to eat anything and left very quickly. After all, the favor was owed.

An Ning pushed Jiang Xia, and Jiang Xia immediately understood and joined the cleanup team, carrying the shovel.

It just seems that everything has been cleaned up, and there is no need to go to Jiangxia.

He returned without success, and the two of them had to think about talking to each other later if they had a chance.

After the heavy rain, the air was very good, but we couldn't go up the mountain for the time being.

But there are so many fish.

The water in the nearby river surged, and many people went fishing.

An Ning and Jiang Xia also went to join in the fun. They didn't use any fishing rods or fishing tackle. They just used big baskets to fish. They really caught a lot.

The fish is not very big, about the size of a palm and two fingers wide.

I heard from the villagers that this small fish is so big and has a very strong reproductive ability. Every time it rains, there will be a lot of them. They always catch them and fry them and eat them.

An Ning and Jiang Xia caught a lot of fish, took a basket of fish home, and sat in the yard, each with a big iron basin, wearing gloves, cleaning the small fish.

"If this fish doesn't taste good, I will definitely be very angry."

It's really troublesome for An Ning to throw a cleaned fish into the basin!
The main reason is that it is too small. It took half a day to clean it, but not even a tenth of it was cleaned.

"How about I fry one for you to try first?"
