Farming Happiness: Husband, Come and Plough the Fields
Chapter 802 Earthquake
Li Haitang rubbed his forehead. It's not that she doesn't want to be a good person, but if you tell others that the earth dragon will turn around, they won't believe it and will only treat you as a mentally ill person.
It’s not that she doesn’t want to help others, it’s just that it’s too laborious and she’s too lazy to do it.
"It would be nice if someone took our word for it."
Xiangli's eyes were watery and she trusted Li Haitang unconditionally.
"If not, just give it a try."
Li Haitang thought, yes, she just said a word and the people around her believed it. Maybe, some people really believed it. She was not afraid of ten thousand, but just in case. If she could save people, she could offset the problem of her savage husband. The bloodiness is also a good thing.
Ever since she came to Daqi, Li Haitang has particularly believed in God, ghosts, gods, and cause and effect. If it hadn't been for them, she wouldn't have been able to come here.
"Husband, maybe God has chosen me to be the savior."
Unable to confide his feelings to others, Li Haitang could only discuss it with his savage husband and find a way to make others believe him.
"No need to bother."
After Xiao Lingchuan finished speaking, he casually took down a tent in the yard and asked his wife to follow him to the street.
Even if the savage man didn't say anything, Li Haitang didn't know what kind of medicine he was selling in his gourd, but according to Xiao Lingchuan's past work style, he must use the least labor-intensive method to solve it.
Sure enough, Xiao Lingchuan went to the street and set up the tent near the middle of the road so as not to block the road, but the place was still a bit awkward.
He carefully played with things, even bringing pots and pans with him.
"Daughter, what are you doing?"
A lady passing by stopped and stood aside to join in the fun and watch.
Soon, many people followed the aunt's footsteps, and a circle of people stood around, pointing at them.
Li Haitang quickly understood what her savage husband meant, and immediately gave a thumbs up. It was time for her to appear!
"Fellow folks, haven't you heard yet? Our climate is abnormal. Master Zhang said that an earth dragon has turned over in the past few days!"
In terms of Hu Fu's skill, even ten people can't compare to Li Haitang alone.
Zhang Tianshi does exist and has a very high status in Yucheng. It is said that he can do calculations and slay demons.
This person happened to be not in Yucheng, but traveling to the south.
Therefore, Li Haitang felt no pressure to borrow someone else's name. What he said was so true that no one else could verify it.
"Master Zhang? What did he say?"
At this time, the onlookers almost threw out the things in their hands. If it was really what Zhang Tianshi said, it was probably true.
I just don’t know if the two people in front of me are liars. If they are, what good will it do to them?
"We have also heard that sheds have been built in the north of the city. If you don't believe it, it doesn't matter. Also, remember to hide all the money at home."
Li Haitang spread out a blanket and told everyone, "In case of an earthquake, the money is trapped inside, and there is no money to buy rice and grain."
It will take at least a few days to wait for the government to provide disaster relief, and during this period, we can only go hungry. Moreover, there has been no rain recently, no crops are growing in the fields, and the wild vegetables have almost been dug up.
"Master Zhang must have said that the weather is abnormal. It's been a long time since it rained!"
Someone agreed, and then everyone hurried home. Not long after, a group of colorful sheds appeared on the street, all made of linoleum, some patchworked with home-made sheets.
Anyway, it's cooler outside than at home, so I'll sleep on the street for two days at worst.
Seeing more and more people setting up tents, Li Haitang and his wife returned to the inn, but they were still in the yard and did not enter the room.
On the second day, Zhang Tianshi's "prediction" gradually became known, and everyone in Yucheng knew about it. There were tents one after another on the streets. Some people did not believe it, but it did not mean that they were unwilling to follow suit.
If others have it but not at home, that person will look at him as if he were a dead ghost, and he will be very unhappy.
There was no movement all day long, but at night, the family dog started barking crazily, and the chickens and ducks were reluctant to return to their nests and flopped around.
Suddenly, a gust of evil wind came from nowhere, and everyone hurriedly covered their valuables in the house, waiting for the arrival of the Earth Dragon.
They began to pay attention to a series of anomalies and became convinced of them.
In the middle of the night, before Li Haitang fell asleep, she felt the earth trembling, followed by strong shaking, which made her feel dizzy, as if she was carsick, and made her feel nauseous.
After shaking back and forth for a minute or two, the house shook, and those unexplained thatched houses all collapsed with a rumble.
After the earthquake, no one wailed. The people looked at their houses and felt that it was indeed the case. It seemed that Zhang Tianshi was not lying.
Of course, they were still dead. Those people had laughed at them for their ignorance a few days ago, but they were slapped in the face.
On the street, many people kowtowed and muttered words of thanks to Zhang Tianshi.
Li Haitang was speechless. She was a great and noble person. Not only did she do good deeds without leaving her name behind, but she also gave her reputation for good deeds to others.
"After Yucheng has experienced this calamity, I'm afraid it will have to wait for two or three years."
There are always those who don’t believe it, but Li Haitang thinks it’s worth it to save the lives of many people.
For the first time, she felt that it was not such a bad thing to like to watch the excitement and listen to gossip.
After the earth dragon turned over, it rained heavily, and all the people from the yamen went out to dig people out under the collapsed house. No one dared to use tools and could only use their bare hands. There were also many kind-hearted people who joined in.
Even so, after two days of statistics from the Yamen, there were still hundreds of casualties.
Li Haitang estimated that the earthquake was at least six or seven in magnitude, and there were fewer casualties than expected. This was because of the structure of Daqi's houses and the fact that there were basically no high-rise buildings.
The most serious damage was caused by the two-story inn in Yucheng, and many residents were crushed into the collapsed building.
Including the inn where a group of people stayed, there were people who did not believe in evil and eventually died.
The deceased were a young couple, about 20 years old. They went out with their children to find relatives. They learned that their relatives had not been in Yucheng many years ago. They were about to go home and had just stayed in an inn for a day.
When the incident happened, I couldn't escape the feeling of being a parent, so I used my body to protect the children. In the end, they were hit on the head by falling bricks and died.
"What can we do? The child is pitiful!"
There was nothing the clerk could do. The yamen didn't keep anyone in custody, so they couldn't make the final decision. The two little kids didn't understand anything. The older one was better, a seven-year-old girl, and the younger son was only three years old.
There is no way for the two little ones to organize funerals for their parents, and they need help.
After Dilong turned over, it was the time to test family ties. The Yamen was busy making statistics and found that there were at least ten homeless children. I'm too young to do any work, so I either have no relatives, or I give it to relatives, but they won't accept it. Don't drag the oil bottle with me. I'm almost worried about gray hair when I'm on official duty, so I have to settle the person first.
