Standing at the door, sent everyone away.

Zhou Xiaochuan looked up at the sky, the weather has been a bit erratic these days.

It was cloudy and sunny for a while, but it didn't rain.

It was still sunny in the morning, but the sky at this time was already overcast, as if it might rain at any time.

It seemed to confirm his thoughts.

"boom…"

There was a burst of thunder in the sky.

At this time, hearing the sound of thunder, Grandma Miao came out of the house.

A look of worry.

Seeing the other party's expression, Zhou Xiaochuan realized that Xiaocao hadn't come back yet.

But think of the man who herders the sheep can also hear the thunder.

Then he comforted: "Grandma Miao, don't worry too much, they heard thunder, and they should be back soon."

Grandma Miao nodded when she heard the words, and then said: "There is a thunderstorm on the 28th, and there are thieves everywhere."

Hearing Grandma Miao's words, Zhou Xiaochuan froze for a moment.

He has also heard this statement.

August in the Gregorian calendar is the rainy season, but in August in the lunar calendar there are still thunderstorms and heavy rain, which will affect the autumn harvest.

It is said that after the reduction of grain production, there is not enough food to eat.

There will be people who starve, or people who go out and steal.

However, he thought that the temperature here is lower than that in the south, and the autumn harvest is from the end of September to the middle of October.

And the harvest season of millet is a little later.

But these are determined according to the annual climate. The earlier the spring is warmer, the earlier the planting will lead to the earlier harvest.

Otherwise, it will be late.

In his opinion, this is a good thing. Isn't it good when there is rain?

Don't know what they think.

Between thoughts.

There was another thunderclap, and at the same time, raindrops like soybeans began to fall.

And Grandma Miao seemed a little restless as the rain became heavier.

Zhou Xiaochuan looked at Grandma Miao and asked, "Grandma Miao, if it rained before, didn't they often come back?"

"Occasionally I won't come back when I get too big. Rarely."

Zhou Xiaochuan nodded upon hearing this.

Although this happened before, Grandma Miao must still be worried.

While thinking, his eyes turned to the distance.

I saw 2 figures walking down the mountain.

It's Captain Zhao and Zhao Sanxi.

I didn't see Accountant Feng inside.

Zhou Xiaochuan thought for a while, went back to the house, and put on a raincoat and rubber shoes.

"Grandma Miao, don't worry, I'll go and have a look."

After Zhou Xiaochuan came out, he said something to Grandma Miao, and then walked into the rain.

"Hey, come back, it's okay, it's not like I haven't encountered it before."

Grandma Miao shouted anxiously behind her.

But at this time Zhou Xiaochuan had already rushed into the rain.

Captain Zhao in front walked slowly, and Zhou Xiaochuan also walked slowly.

When he came to the river at the foot of the mountain, several people had already crossed the river and walked towards the opposite mountain.

The opposite hill is relatively small, and there are not many shrubs on it.

It is estimated that it was cut down.

It didn't look very far, and it was already an hour later when he climbed up the mountain.

At this time, it was approaching dusk.

When they came to the top of the mountain, they didn't see Captain Zhao and the others.

But through his thoughts, he saw a scene of surprise.

Captain Zhao and several people are in a cave dwelling, talking to some sheep herders.

Zhao Laoliu, Xiaocao, and another teenage child.

The two children were sitting on the kang in the cave at this time.

"Lao Liu, is the sheep alright?"

"Don't worry, I don't see something right, so I hurried to drive the sheep in because I was afraid it would be too late."

Beside this clean cave dwelling, there are four or five cave dwellings.

It's just that there is no kang inside, it's just a simple cave dwelling.

A group of thirty sheep and the big yellow ox are staying inside honestly.

Hearing this, Zhao Baoshan felt relieved.

This scene did not surprise Zhou Xiaochuan.

To his surprise, many potatoes and sweet potatoes were planted on the **** at the entrance of the cave.

It is estimated that there are five or six mu of land scattered here and there.

Seeing this, Zhou Xiaochuan smiled. It seems that Captain Zhao is not a fool.

Darkness.

It's just that there are risks in doing so.

Don't know how they avoided it.

Captain Zhao looked at the heavy rain outside, and asked Zhao Laoliu, "How are those yams growing?"

Zhao Laoliu smiled happily when he heard the words: "It has rained a few times this year, so it shouldn't be too bad."

After speaking, he said with a little worry: "I'm afraid that it will rain during the autumn harvest later, and the food over there will be troublesome."

Captain Zhao waved his hand upon hearing this.

"It's just one step at a time. There's still one month left. As long as you're fine. Then we'll go back first. Xiaocao, bastard, you two come with us."

What he said next was to Xiaocao and the two of them.

Xiaocao hesitated for a moment, "What about the cow?"

"It's okay, put it here, and put it away tomorrow. Your second grandfather is watching."

After Captain Zhao finished speaking, he laughed again: "If your brother Xiaochuan asks, just say it's at your second grandfather's place."

Xiaocao struggled for a while when she heard the words, and finally could only make a soft sound.

Hearing this, the two little guys took out two miniature coir raincoats from the kang.

These are all prepared to prevent accidents.

Although there was still some floating dust on the kang, the half near the side was relatively clean. It means that there are usually people resting here.

Zhou Xiaochuan outside saw these people preparing to come out, he originally wanted to hide.

But after thinking about it for a while, he finally didn't enter the space, but walked slowly down.

no need.

I just saw it, so what.

But looking at this land, he made some space for spring water to come out and water the roots of these potatoes and sweet potatoes.

Captain Zhao and the others were about to go back when they saw Zhou Xiaochuan in the dojo at the door, surprised.

Zhao Sanxi asked in surprise: "It's raining so much, why are you here, Xiao Chuan?"

"Brother Xiaochuan." Xiaocao was surprised to see Zhou Xiaochuan.

Zhou Xiaochuan entered the cave and wiped the rainwater off his face.

He said with a smile: "Grandma Miao is a little worried about Xiaocao. Seeing you coming, I will follow to take a look. I didn't know that you ran so fast and didn't catch up."

Zhao Sanxi smiled awkwardly when he heard the words, and only let out a soft sound.

Captain Zhao was silent for a while, and said: "Okay, everyone is safe, take the child back. There is the sixth child here, it's all right."

Zhou Xiaochuan nodded when he heard the words, and waved to Xiaocao.

Seeing this, Xiaocao walked over.

The other child was pulled by Sanxi.

A few people went out against the rain.

But at this time, the rain outside had lightened a lot, only light rain was falling.

Zhou Xiaochuan pulled Xiaocao, smiled at Captain Zhao who was silent beside him, and said, "Captain Zhao, those potatoes and sweet potatoes are growing well."

Captain Zhao didn't speak when he heard the words, but was silent for a while.

Then he smiled and said: "Not much~lightnovelpub.net~ I planned to tell you next year, anyway, everyone will be the same in the future."

Zhou Xiaochuan smiled when he heard the words, he felt that if he hadn't discovered this place by himself, he probably wouldn't know when he knew it.

After all, people like myself are not trustworthy yet.

He also finally knew the reason why no one went out and ran away because there was such a shortage of food here.

Eat thin grains during the slack season in winter, and top it with fruits and vegetables in summer.

Together with the peanuts and soybeans in the middle of the cornfield here and before, it can barely support the autumn harvest.

People are soft during the slack season.

There is no way, too little staple food will have no carbohydrates, and blood sugar will tend to be low.

This is also the reason why Zhao Sanxi had to change people when he stir-fried peanut noodles.
