26. Chapter 26 Rainy Night
Author: Next door Lao Huang 007
Yiren naturally also saw the sky.
The rain in the late moon comes as soon as it comes.
But look at the clouds, it might rain until tomorrow! If it still rains tomorrow, she won’t be able to get out of her stall! There is no awning, and even if there was one, she wouldn’t be able to support it alone. Besides, what she does is eating.
If it gets caught in the rain, you can't use it. Uncle Qing's bullock cart doesn't have a rain shelter.
But local goods can be delivered. You can borrow a piece of oilcloth to cover it, so you won’t be afraid of a little rain!
Hey! Another day less money! My big house has to be delayed another day! Yiren rolled her eyes at the sky, then thought: It hasn't rained since she walked in. It doesn't matter if it rains.
The rice seedlings here are exposed to the rain, and the weather is less muggy.
Yi Ren is a master of agriculture in modern times. She has always been busy in the crop fields over the years. Naturally, she has a sincere love for the land.
On the other side, Aunt Li, who had met Heiyun a long time ago, also hurried home with her three children. The children are not very old, especially Er Niu and Yi Ren's Xiao Yinyin, who will get sick if they get caught in the rain!
The men and horses on both sides were hurrying in a hurry, and after finishing moving the things, they were about to run home. Yiren called the two brothers to stop, fearing that the two children would be caught in the rain, so she didn't waste any words.
"This is today's wages, take it as you are told!" Yiren took out four cents and put two cents into each hand. "Then go home and ask your mother and sister. If nothing happens in the future, you two will follow.
Aunt Li, go up to the back mountain every day to pick mountain products. Aunt Li will tell you your request. If it works, you can go to Aunt Li’s house at the beginning of every day! Of course, if it rains, you won’t go into the mountain if it rains!"
Yiren said and pushed the two children out. "Go home quickly, it will rain heavily soon!"
The two brothers held two coins in their hands. This was the first time they had made money on their own. There were two coins! They couldn't help but feel excited and ran home dancing.
Aunt Li also came back with the child and gave Yi Yin to Yi Ren. Yi Ren told Aunt Li about the restaurant order and the thirty cents and forty cents, gave her fifteen coppers, and asked Aunt Li to hurry up and bring it with her.
Returned home with the child.
Looking at the rain and clouds, I guess it will rain again tomorrow, so I don’t plan to go out to the food stall tomorrow. If it’s sunny when I wake up tomorrow morning, I’ll just make pancakes.
With such a plan, Yiren stopped working and sat on the threshold of the hall with her little dumpling to watch the rain.
"Mom, Erniu said today that his mother can sing, can you?" Xiaotuanzi stretched out his little hand to catch the rainwater falling from the eaves.
"Yes~ Yes! What do you want to hear?" Just kidding, Chuan Shuqian's beauty is the resident singer at the school party.
"My mother sings, it sounds great!" The voice is still small, and because of the original owner's neglect, sometimes she cannot express her meaning clearly. Yiren thought, what Xiaotuanzi wants to say is "Everything my mother sings is beautiful"!
"Can I sing a song about counting ducks for you?" Although Xiaotuanzi is still young, his education must start from childhood. Yiren thought for a while and decided to start teaching from counting.
"Okay!" Xiaotuanzi clapped his hands.
"Under the bridge in front of the door, a group of ducks swim by. Come on, count them, two, four, six, seven, eight, quack, quack, there are so many, I can't count how many ducks..."
"Mom!" Xiaotuanzi interrupted Yiren and asked curiously: "How many ducks are there?"
"What do you think of Yinyin?"
"Yinyin doesn't know, but we have two chickens at home..."
"What's in front of the second?"
"It's a tree!" Yinyin pointed at the big tree in front of the far door and shouted.
"That's a tree. When we say tree, it's one. When we say chicken or duck, it's one!"
"Yinyin remembers it!" Xiaotuanzi took the water with his hands, clapped his hands together, and water splashed everywhere. Yiren didn't stop him. The child is at the age of exploring the world! "Mom, how many rains are there?
Please help me count!"
…
After playing with Xiaotuanzi for a while, she was too tired to open her eyes. Yiren hugged Xiaotuanzi and put her on the bed, covered her with a quilt, and then returned to the door of the main room.
It was raining non-stop, and it was getting dark. Dinner hadn't been cooked yet. The stove in the courtyard was covered with oilcloth, but if the wind and rain were strong, it would inevitably leak from all sides. She was hesitating to wait until the wind and rain subsided.
Let’s cook some food later, or go there now in the rain…
Town pier.
Dark clouds rolled over the city and heavy rain poured down.
A group of masked men in black clothes surrounded a young man in a well-dressed suit. The scene was unusually quiet. The man in black did not shout any threats, and the young man in a well-dressed man did not ask for mercy.
The man in black gradually closed the circle around the well-dressed boy, and when he was only two meters away, he raised his knife and slashed. The well-dressed boy was bare-handed, and this time there might be only a puddle of meat sauce left.
The people peeping in the awning boat not far away couldn't bear it, so they clicked their tongues and closed their eyes.
This soft "tsk" sound alarmed the men in black. One of them slowed down and turned his head to listen.
"That's it now!" The well-dressed young man thought to himself.
A small gap appeared in front of the man in black who slowed down his pace. The boy in the strong suit leaned back, lowered his body, stretched his left leg forward, and shoveled directly towards the man in black.
With this shovel, he slipped out of the circle surrounded by the men in black.
"Sir!" Anxious shouts and chaotic footsteps came from a distance, and it sounded like there were quite a few people.
There were more than a dozen men in black, and they were immediately divided into two groups of six. One group stayed behind and continued to try to intercept and kill the handsomely dressed young man, while the other group went straight to the awning boat.
"Here comes the knife!" The handsomely dressed boy shouted to the newly arrived crowd.
If Old Wei from the noodle stall were here at this time, he would be surprised to find that the person who responded to the call of the young man in a strong suit and threw the knife was the dock steward whom he usually fawned over.
The young man seemed to have eyes on the back of his head. Hearing the sound of breaking through the air, he turned around and took the sword. He stood the Zhanma Saber on the ground. He rose sideways into the air, circled around the handle of the Zhanma Saber, and kicked with his legs.
He was hit by a man in black who came forward.
"Help! Wupeng boat!" the young man shouted towards the crowd that had just rushed over.
"Master..." The young steward hesitated. After all, it was their duty to protect this young man.
"Go! Leave me alone!" the young man shouted while fighting.
It was not easy for the man in black to intercept and kill the young man who had practiced martial arts all year round, and the people he had brought with him, but the people in the awning boat were all ordinary people, at most people with some strength, so they were naturally easy to kill.
Although some young people wanted to rescue him, within a few moments, there were no more survivors on the awning boat.
The man in black saw that everyone who saw this scene was dead, and he missed the young man with one blow, and they all fled in an instant.
The well-dressed young man dragged his injured arm and boarded the awning boat. He made sure that there were no more survivors on board. He did not blame his subordinates, but walked into the rain in a daze...
