Chapter 2065 Qin Li (3)

But now, things have changed.

After Li Boxue left, Ruan Jiaojiao didn't take it to heart. She went back to the house to eat lunch. After lunch, she took a nap in the room with Yu Rou, talking about some interesting things in her childhood. Finally, she fell asleep.

She woke up again because of the noise downstairs.

Ruan Jiaojiao frowned and got up from the bed. Yu Rou was still sleeping beside her. She scratched her hair and came out of the house gently.

Downstairs, in the yard, Ruan Jianguo and Ruan Jiandang were talking about something with their heads down.

In the yard, there were several cadres and villagers in the village standing, making a lot of noise. Ruan Jiaojiao listened and vaguely heard a few sensitive words, such as death and soaked hair.

At this time, Ruan Lin just came out of the house, wearing a relatively old black dress, and in the yard, there were several old ladies about her age urging her.

"Grandma, what's wrong?" Seeing Ruan Lin hurriedly walking out, Ruan Jiaojiao came up to ask.

Seeing Ruan Jiaojiao, Ruan Lin paused and turned to say to the old ladies in the yard: "You go first, I'll be there soon." Turning back, she said to Ruan Jiaojiao: "Good boy, stay at home and don't run around. Something happened in the Li family next door. Grandma will go to help. Be obedient and stay at home with Xiaorou. Don't run around."

After saying that, she patted Ruan Jiaojiao's little hand again and chased after the old ladies in front.

What happened?

Ruan Jiaojiao was even more confused and subconsciously wanted to chase after them. When she chased to the gate of the yard, she was pulled back by Ruan Jianguo. Ruan Jianguo said seriously: "Good boy, don't go out, just play in the yard, okay?"

"Dad, what happened? If you don't tell me clearly, I'm more curious."

Ruan Jianguo could only explain helplessly after hearing what he said.

It turned out that the old couple of the Li family next door had died, and they had been dead for several days, but they were only discovered today.

This matter has to do with the storm a few days ago. There are many paddy fields in Xiahe Village. Apart from the public grain handed in, the rest of these paddy fields are the farmers' food for a year.

After the old couple of the Li family lost their son, their daughter-in-law ran away with the compensation money. It was not easy for them to raise a child, so these paddy fields were their biggest hope all year round.

It is now August, and the mid-season rice has begun to reach the heading and fruiting period. The heading and fruiting period of rice is a relatively critical period. The management of this period is very important, and the management will directly affect the final rice yield.

The old couple relied on this grain throughout the year, so they naturally had to take good care of it.

The rice during this period cannot lack water or be flooded, especially the storms like the one two days ago, which can easily flood the crops.

On the day of the storm, the old couple went to the town to buy weed killers and pesticides. On the way back, they encountered a storm and did not go home. Instead, they went directly to the fields to release water.

It happened that the Li family's fields were by the river. It might be because the road was slippery on rainy days, or it might be some other reason. The old couple fell into the river. It was not until today that they were found by the villagers floating in a patch of weeds.

It has been several days since then, and the person has been swollen and can no longer be seen.
