Typhoon is Coming

Mother Zhou nodded, "I told him, it was broadcast all morning today."

Jiang Xia thought of the plot in the book, only saying that the Typhoon would land near this area, and then after the Typhoon, the beach would be full of shrimp.

Only the female lead almost got swept away by the waves while chasing a fish. The book didn't mention any other casualties, but some families lost their boats.

She felt a little relieved.

Jiang Xia reminded, "Then remember to find a safe place to dock our boat and tie it up well."

Zhou Chenglei nodded, "I'll go take a look after I finish eating."

Jiang Xia felt that Zhou Chenglei had one good quality: he listened to other people's opinions.

No need for much explanation, as long as it was useful and good, he wasn't afraid of the trouble.

After dinner, Mother Zhou took the initiative to clean up the dishes.

Mother Zhou was always diligent, doing all the housework she could, so Jiang Xia didn't have to.

Zhou Chenglei went to dock the boat properly.

Jiang Xia went to cut watermelon.

It was really too hot all day today, stuffy and hot, without a bit of wind. Eating some watermelon would help cool down.

The next day, the wind and waves were very strong. The whole day was gloomy, without the sun. It was estimated that there was a Typhoon in the outer sea. With such big waves, they couldn't go out to sea. Zhou Chenglei set up the Grape Trellis at home and checked the Tile Roof again.

Sure enough, it started raining at night. Raindrops "drip-dripped" on the tiles, and the sound of things being blown down came from the yard. The wind outside was roaring.

The noise was so loud that Jiang Xia, who had just entered deep sleep, was awakened and opened her eyes.

Zhou Chenglei's voice sounded, "It's okay, the Typhoon is here. It's still early, continue sleeping!"

The sound of rain and wind outside grew louder and louder, and Jiang Xia couldn't sleep either.

Suddenly, she heard a dripping sound from the wardrobe.

Zhou Chenglei sat up.

Jiang Xia also sat up and asked, "Is it leaking?"

Zhou Chenglei nodded, "It should be. I'll go find a basin to catch the water."

After all, it was an old house of several decades. Although the leaking tiles had been repaired, there were bound to be oversights. You wouldn't know where it would leak until you experienced wind and rain.

Zhou Chenglei got out of bed, turned on the light, and found that the rain was leaking above the wardrobe. He quickly went out.

Jiang Xia remained lying in bed, waiting for a while but not seeing Zhou Chenglei return. Suddenly, the light bulb went out, and there was a power outage.

Before long, she heard a series of crashing sounds from outside.

The roof tiles must have been blown off by the Typhoon!

She was shocked, worried that Zhou Chenglei had been hit. She called out "Zhou Chenglei" several times, but no one responded.

She quickly got out of bed and ran out.

As soon as she left the room, a draft mixed with rain blew into the hall. The wind was so strong that she could barely stand!

A bolt of lightning lit up the sky, and Jiang Xia saw the things in the yard blown askew. There was a pile of broken tiles on the ground, and the tiles of the Storage Room had been blown off.

Not seeing Zhou Chenglei's figure, it shouldn't take this long to get a basin. Worried that he had been knocked unconscious in the Storage Room, she waited for a gust of wind to pass and quickly ran out, "Zhou Chenglei! Zhou Chenglei..."

She had only run a few steps when the tiles of the Storage Room were blown up by the strong wind, rushing towards Jiang Xia's face!

An enamel basin in the courtyard was also swept up by the wind and flew over! Jiang Xia was blown away by this evil wind. Unable to control her body, she could only subconsciously raise her hand to block.

A figure darted out from somewhere, pulled her, and shielded her between the wall and his embrace.

Jiang Xia only heard a loud series of tiles "bang bang bang" hitting the enamel basin.

The tiles shattered all over the ground at their feet.

Before Jiang Xia could react, Zhou Chenglei had already picked her up with one arm and rushed into the house, put her down, and quickly closed the door, blocking the raging wind and rain outside.

Jiang Xia came back to her senses and hurriedly said, "Are you okay?"

Zhou Chenglei was holding an enamel basin in his hand. He had just used the basin to protect his head. His arm was scratched, but what was this little injury?

He didn't take it seriously.

"It's okay, I was using a basin to cover my head. Why did you run out during the Typhoon?"

Jiang Xia: "I heard the sound of tiles falling and was afraid you'd get hurt."

Jiang Xia saw that his arm seemed to be bleeding, but the light was too dim to be sure.

Father Zhou and Mother Zhou also came out at this time: "What's wrong? Are you okay? Are you hurt?"

The power was out, and the two elders couldn't see Zhou Chenglei's injury.

Zhou Chenglei: "It's nothing, the room is leaking, I went out to get a washbasin. Is your room leaking? Should I get another washbasin? It's very windy outside, the tiles are falling, don't go out."

Father Zhou: "Our room isn't leaking. Which part of the Tile Roof flew off?"

"The Firewood Shed's Tile Roof was blown off." He had even gone up yesterday to check and reinforce it, but it was still blown off, which shows how strong this Typhoon is.

Mother Zhou went to find a flashlight: "I'll go check if other rooms are leaking, don't let the Grain get wet. Luckily, we fixed the house before, otherwise all the tiles might have been blown off. This Typhoon is quite strong!"

Zhou Chenglei: "I've already checked, there's no leak. No need to check, go back to sleep, don't go out, it's dangerous."

"You go back to sleep! We'll take another look. We won't go out." Father Zhou and Mother Zhou were still worried and went to check Zhou Zhou's room and the other room.

Mother Zhou planned to stay with Zhou Zhou, the child was sleeping soundly and hadn't woken up, but if she did, she might be scared.

Zhou Chenglei told the two elders not to go out and pulled Jiang Xia back to the room.

Back in the room, Zhou Chenglei took out a flashlight, turned it on, put the basin in his hand on top of the wardrobe to catch water, and wiped the water off the top of the wardrobe.

With the flashlight on, Jiang Xia could clearly see several cuts on Zhou Chenglei's arm at a glance.

After he finished wiping, Jiang Xia took his hand, examined it with the flashlight, "Two of the cuts are quite deep, and they're still bleeding, you need some medicine."

The others were shallower.

He probably had wounds on his back too, because his clothes were stained with a little blood.

Jiang Xia: "Take off your clothes, I'll help you treat the wounds."

While Jiang Xia was looking Zhou Chenglei up and down to see if he was injured, Zhou Chenglei was also checking if Jiang Xia was hurt, worried that she had been hit by the tiles.

Jiang Xia wasn't injured, but her clothes were soaked, and her pajamas were white, so when they were wet and stuck to her skin, they became particularly transparent.

Everything was clearly visible under the flashlight, Zhou Chenglei only glanced to see that she wasn't hurt, then looked away: "I'm fine, you should change your clothes first, and see if you're hurt. I'll go out for a bit."

"Go where? I'm fine, let me put medicine on you first." Jiang Xia grabbed him, and glanced down at herself.

"..."

"I, I should change my clothes first!" It was the first time she was so embarrassed, Jiang Xia stuttered, and quickly let go.

Zhou Chenglei walked out.

Jiang Xia quickly changed her clothes in less than a minute, glanced at herself, made sure everything was in order, and then opened the door, went out to call Zhou Chenglei in, her face still a little flushed.

Zhou Chenglei walked in.

Jiang Xia closed the door behind him: "Take off your clothes!"
