The brigade leader nodded. "We're back. We had a relative bring us over in their boat. The water level in the river was already much higher on our way here. If it rains tonight, I'm afraid it'll rise even more."
After a few more pleasantries, Lin Changyou had the brigade leader sit down for a meal with them. As he was leaving, Lin Changyou gave him the two black carp.
After seeing the brigade leader off, Lin Changyou looked up at the sky and frowned. "The mountain ridge to the northeast is completely covered by dark clouds. Looks like we're in for a heavy rain tonight."
All the experienced old farmers on this side of the river knew that once the northeastern mountain ridge was shrouded in dark clouds that wouldn't disperse, there was a ninety-nine percent chance of a downpour.
Wu Shufen glanced over after hearing this and smiled. "Don't worry. The levee is so high, the water won't overflow it even if there's a downpour."
