The rain is still falling
哗,一道闪电;轰,一个响雷。
Wow, a bolt of lightning; Boom, a loud thunder.
暴雨倾盆,天地间浑沌一片……
The rainstorm poured down, and the world was in chaos
老大扑腾腾坐起来,心也跟着扑腾腾地跳。老大拉亮灯,推推身边的媳妇。媳妇一骨碌爬起来,咋?屋里进水了?
The boss sat up with a thumping heart. The boss lit the light and pushed his wife beside him. My wife crawled up with all her might, why? Did water enter the room?
我是担心咱爹咱娘……
I'm worried about our parents
说梦话吧?爹娘不是住在咱家吗?咱住的可是爹娘的老屋。要塌,也是这里塌。咱那屋,结实着呢!
Talking in your sleep, right? Don't your parents live in our house? We live in my parents' old house. If it collapses, it will collapse here too. Our house is sturdy!
结实归结实,可那边地势低,万一进了水,也不是闹着玩的……
Despite being sturdy, the terrain over there is low, so if it gets into the water, it's not just a joke
门前有土埂,屋后有排水……哪能呢?睡吧,睡吧。
There is a soil embankment in front of the door and drainage behind the house... how can it be? Go to sleep, go to sleep.
哗,一道闪电;轰,一个响雷。
Wow, a bolt of lightning; Boom, a loud thunder.
暴雨倾盆,天地间浑沌一片……
The rainstorm poured down, and the world was in chaos
老大扑腾腾坐起来,心也跟着扑腾腾地跳。这回,媳妇没用推,也跟着坐起来。
The boss sat up with a thumping heart. This time, the daughter-in-law didn't need to push and sat up with her.
你到底折腾个啥?还让不让人睡觉?
What are you messing around with? Are you still letting people sleep?
我还是不放心……咱爹咱娘都七十多岁的人了,屋里一旦进了水,跑又跑不得……
I'm still worried... Our parents are both in their seventies, and once water enters the house, we can't escape
要不,你去看看?
How about you go take a look?
嗯,看看。老大麻利地穿衣,下地。
Well, take a look. The boss dressed quickly and got off the ground.
把我一个人撇屋里?我也去!
Leaving me alone in the house? I will go too.
穿好雨衣,摁亮手电。老大和媳妇拧开门,一头扎进暴雨里。
Put on your raincoat and turn on your flashlight. The eldest and daughter-in-law opened the door and plunged into the rainstorm.
哗,一道闪电;轰,一个响雷。
Wow, a bolt of lightning; Boom, a loud thunder.
暴雨倾盆,天地间浑沌一片……
The rainstorm poured down, and the world was in chaos
老大和媳妇跌跌撞撞来到自家门前,一切安好。
The boss and daughter-in-law stumbled to their doorstep, everything was fine.
媳妇说,我说没事,你偏不信。这回安心了吧?
My wife said, 'I said it's okay, but you don't believe me.'. Are you at ease now?
老大和媳妇磕磕绊绊地原路返回。刚到院门口,眼前的一幕就把他们惊呆了——
The boss and daughter-in-law stumbled back the same way. As soon as they arrived at the entrance of the courtyard, the scene in front of them stunned them——
屋子塌了……
The house collapsed
哗,一道闪电;轰,一个响雷。
Wow, a bolt of lightning; Boom, a loud thunder.
雨还在下……
The rain is still falling
