Ye Yaodong had only stayed in the new house for a while when he heard the sound of a loudspeaker, playing the precautions for the typhoon day from far to near, and reminding fishermen how to prevent it safely.

He walked out from behind the house and watched someone riding a bicycle not far away, with a loudspeaker in the basket on the front of the car, playing there.

Chen Shuji is quite efficient, he arranged it early in the morning!

After listening to the loudspeaker playing in a circle in the village and then going far to the pier, he felt a little relieved. Anyway, he had done his meager effort. As for the result? Let it be up to heaven!

The typhoon came as soon as it was said. It was sunny in the morning, but cloudy and windy in the afternoon. The big tree at the door was blown left and right by the wind, swaying.

It wasn't until the night that it rained heavily. Ye Yaodong and his wife didn't sleep very peacefully originally. Hearing the movement outside the house and the dripping sound of water leaking in the house, they both climbed up.

Pulling the wire, they found that the power was out.

He had to light the candle he had prepared at the head of the bed, and go out to take a basin to prepare to catch the rainwater.

Lin Xiuqing was a little worried about the new house, "With such a strong wind, we can't go to the new house to see it. I don't know if it will leak."

"It doesn't matter, just take this typhoon to test it. If it leaks, call the tile worker to repair it. After all, it's a job that has just been handled, so it must be done well for us."

"Hmm."

Don't know how long the impact of this typhoon will last. The two sat on the bed and didn't sleep all night.

After dawn, they walked out of the room and went to the hall. The whole family was sitting at the table doing nothing. It was still windy outside, and they couldn't go anywhere, so they could only wait for the typhoon to pass.

It is estimated that around 8:30 in the morning, the wind weakened, not so strong, but the rain was still very heavy.

By noon, the wind and rain weakened. Ye's father put on a coir raincoat and went out. He wanted to go to the pier to see how big the waves were, where they flooded, would they flood the new house? Is the impact on the village big?

There was only one coir raincoat in the family. Ye's father wore it, and the others couldn't go out, so they could only wait at home.

As a result, Ye's father went for two hours. By the time he came back, the rain was almost stopping.

"The new house is fine, the tide can't hit it. But some people in the village had a fluke mentality and didn't sail the boat to the shelter harbor. As a result, they were either washed away by the waves or beaten to pieces by the waves, and the wooden boards were floating on the sea. I heard that two people made an appointment to go sailing in the middle of the night and haven't come back yet. At this moment, the waves are big again, and they can't sail out to search. The shore is now in a mess."

Everyone was shocked after hearing this.

Ye's mother hurriedly asked, "The loudspeaker in the village was still broadcasting yesterday, why are they so big-hearted?"

"Who knows, our broken boat is like a treasure, fearing any loss, but those people are still there taking chances."

Ye Yaodong frowned, 2 people? It's really fate!

After the rain stopped outside, the villagers ran out one after another. People all over the village were discussing this matter, saying that losing the boat is small, but losing the life is really losing everything.

Those two families still live next to each other. I heard that they have already started crying...

Ye Yaodong was also wandering in the village, his ears were full of various discussions. When he walked to the center road of the village, he saw everyone looking at the two people walking down the slope from the village entrance as if they had seen a ghost.

"Ah, Dazhuang and Chen Shan didn't die and came back?"

"It really is!"

"Really lucky, Mazu bless!"

"Why did you just come back? Your family members were worried to death. If you didn't come back, they would have set up a mourning hall."

"Ah?" The two were startled and hurriedly ran back.

The nosy villagers also followed. Everyone didn't know how they came back yet. How could gossip be missed?

Ye Yaodong was also curious and followed, listening at their door, only then did he know.

It turned out that the wind was too strong at night, exceeding their expectations. They were worried about the boat stopping at the pier, so they made an appointment to go sailing together so they could have a companion.

Who knew that the wind and waves at sea were several times higher than on the shore. They struggled to sail the boat into the shelter harbor. The wind and rain were super big at night, as if they wanted to blow the two away. The two had no way to go up, so they could only endure the night on the boat, and only walked back after there was no wind and rain.

After listening to the process, Ye Yaodong left and went home.

It's best to be fine. It's considered accumulating virtue. Who knows if he can be reborn, is it the blessing accumulated in his previous life?

The news spread throughout the village not long after. Everyone said it was Mazu's blessing, so the two of them could return safely.

Chen Shuji also breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, he listened to Ye Yaodong's suggestion the day before yesterday. The loudspeaker was played in a circle in the village first and then installed at the pier. Many villagers who heard it temporarily sailed to dock that afternoon, avoiding personnel losses, and only a few people suffered property losses.

His perception of Ye Yaodong in his heart improved a bit more.

And as soon as Ye Yaodong went home, he organized the ground cage net. He made a few more in the past few days, intending to see tomorrow, if the waves were not so big, he would take them to put them.

Lin Xiuqing squatted beside him and asked in a discussion, "The typhoon has stopped, shall we go back to my mother's house tomorrow?"

"No hurry, wait until the waves are not so big tomorrow, I will put the ground cage, there will be a lot of cargo after the typhoon, and I will collect some cargo the day after tomorrow. By then, I can bring some seafood back."

She smiled and said, "I took so much last time, there are still two bottles of canned food in the cabinet, let's just buy some mooncakes..."

"Last time is last time, this time I'm going back and sending the Mid-Autumn Festival by the way, so prepare more, buy some mooncakes, hit a pig's trotter, and I'll catch some seafood to bring back. Prepare it better, so you can have a long face, and I can listen to a few good words."

After all, it was the first time he went to her mother's house after being reborn. He felt guilty in his previous life, so of course he had to prepare more.

"Okay."

She was of course happy that he valued her family members.

In the past, she prepared it with her private money. He didn't care at all, and he rarely appeared. Most of the time, she went back to her mother's house alone, leaving early and returning late, and couldn't stay overnight.

Early the next morning, seeing the waves were small, he went to the shelter harbor with his father to sail the boat back.

After docking at the pier, he went home to get the ground cage, but saw villagers from their village and the neighboring village everywhere on the beach, all happily going to the beach to catch the sea with buckets.

He felt a little sorry. He had to go to sea to put the ground cage and had no time to follow everyone. Otherwise, he really wanted to go to the beach to see, there must be a lot of cargo to pick up.

The clams picked up a few days ago still had a large bucket left, fortunately, they were raised in seawater and wouldn't go bad.

Don't know if there are treasures on the beach today, what can his wife pick up.
