Transmigrated To Another World: General, I'm Not Your White Moonlight - Chapter 156

Chapter 156: Uneasy
“Have you not had dinner yet, Xin Xin?” Chi Xiyou asked with a frown.

Duan Yixin shook her head and said, “Not yet. Do you want to have dinner together?”

Chi Xiyou sat down and said, “Thank you, but I just had dinner. I came here because we are worried about you.”

Duan Yixin heard what he said and smiled, “I’m fine. Thank you for coming to see me.”

After she sat down opposite him, Chi Xiyou poured himself a cup of water. He immediately drank the water and then said, “Mother wants you to stay at our house until the rain stops. She worried that the wind and rain would destroy your house.”

Duan Yixin thought about her dilapidated thatched house and sighed, “All right. But I need to pack some things first. Can you wait for me?”

Chi Xiyou nodded and said, “Mhm. Take your time.”

When Duan Yixin went back to the bedroom to pack her things, Chi Xiyou helped her put the steamed buns and pancakes into the bamboo basket. When he opened the lid of the bamboo basket, he was surprised to see that it was filled with steamed buns and various types of pancakes.

He turned to look in the direction of the bedroom and asked, “Xin Xin, why do you make so much food?”

Duan Yixin heard his question and answered from the bedroom, “I was afraid that the flour would be damaged by moisture, so I made them into food. Moreover, the steamed buns and pancakes can be stored for several days. Just in case something happened, I wouldn’t be helpless without food.”

Chi Xiyou heard her answer and thought, ‘It seems that I have to ask my mother and Ru’er to do the same. Flour and grains are susceptible to mold at the current humidity. Instead of wasting them, it is better to turn them into dry food.’

While Chi Xiyou was thinking, Duan Yixin had already taken all the valuable things from the bedroom to her warehouse and left the bedroom. Seeing Chi Xiyou deep in thought, she asked, “Elder Brother Xiyou, what are you thinking about?”

Chi Xiyou came back to his senses and said, “I just think that in the current weather, your idea of ​​using flour to make dry food is a good one.”

When he saw the small cloth bag in Duan Yixin’s hand, he asked, “Is this all your belongings?”

Duan Yixin has more things than this little bag, but she will not tell Chi Xiyou this secret for the time being. Anyway, she has only been in this world for fourteen days. Although she trusted Chi Xinru and her family, she was not sure how they would react if they knew she had taken over the original Duan Yixin’s body.

With the relationship between the Chi family and the original Duan Yixin being so close, Duan Yixin was afraid that once they knew that she had possessed the body of the original Duan Yixin, she would be killed by the Chi family.

With this in mind, Duan Yixin nodded and said, “Before we leave, I need to go to the woodshed and cover the plants with something in case the rain leaks into the woodshed. I wanted to take them with me, but it would be difficult for the two of us to move the hydroponic shelves.”

Hearing this, Chi Xiyou patted his forehead and said, “I almost forgot about those plants. You don’t need to worry about them. I will ask some brothers to help me move them away. How about we move them into one of the wooden buildings?”

Duan Yixin’s eyes lit up when she heard his words. She nodded and said, “Yes, you are right. The wooden buildings are very well-ventilated and have no leaks. The buildings are also new and sturdy. Those wooden buildings should have no problem withstanding heavy rain and strong winds.”

Seeing that she had no objection, Chi Xiyou covered Duan Yixin’s bamboo basket with his raincoat and carried it on his back. He looked at her and asked, “Xin Xin, do you have an umbrella?”

Duan Yixin nodded, pointed to the only oil-paper umbrella at her home, and said, “I have one.”

Chi Xiyou nodded and said, “You use the umbrella.”

Duan Yixin saw Chi Xiyou covering her bamboo basket with his raincoat and asked, “What about you?”

“A little rain won’t cause any problems to me. Let’s go.” Chi Xiyou said with a smile.

Before she could offer to use the umbrella together, Chi Xiyou had already left the house and walked into the rain. Upon seeing this, Duan Yixin took an oil-paper umbrella, locked the door, and followed Chi Xiyou.

After the two of them left, Liushiliu, who was soaked by the rain, secretly followed them. On the way to the Chi family’s house, Duan Yixin found that many villagers had come out of the house.

She looked at Chi Xiyou and asked curiously, “Elder Brother Xiyou, what are those villagers doing out here instead of staying at their homes?”

Chi Xiyou looked at the villagers when he heard her question. He wiped the water from his face and said, “They should have family members who are living in a low-lying village. The news of the flooded villages should have reached them, and now they went out to pick up their families.”

Duan Yixin felt uneasy when she heard what Chi Xiyou said about the flood. Just a few hours after the rain came, many villages were flooded. If the rains continue, more and more villages will be flooded.

Often, after a flood, a plague would follow due to poor sanitation and cold weather. With the current knowledge and technology in this world, if there is a plague, it will cause a large number of deaths and unimaginable losses.

Duan Yixin arrived at the Chi family’s house with countless scenarios of natural disasters in her mind. When the anxious Madam Chi saw them coming, she hurriedly called Chi Junheng, “Fujun, come here quickly. Dalang and Xin Xin both came back safely.”
