Chapter 175： rain

The latest website: The sky was clear a while ago, but now the sky is suddenly covered with dark clouds, and there was a loud thunder, and it felt like it was about to rain.

She hurriedly called Zhou Cheng to come out and bring the children back.

Zhou Chengcai had just returned to the room to get his clothes, and when he heard the sound of thunder, he also came out to take a look. I'm glad I got the corn into the house early this morning.

"A few children have gone to the horse race, and there may be thunder and lightning later, you go and bring them back."

He nodded, told her to stay in the room, picked up the mino jacket and went out.

"Auntie, brothers, will it be raining?" Niu Niu looked at the lightning bolts in the sky, occasionally mixed with rumbling thunder, and was not afraid.

Pei Xiu shook her little hand, "If they come back soon, they won't get caught in the rain, or they'll turn into chickens."

Niuniu giggled after hearing this, "Liaotangji, my brother is about to become Luotangji."

She smiled and called to Aunt Zhang in the kitchen, "Aunt Zhang, is the meal ready? It's raining heavily, and it's getting dark. Let's eat early."

Aunt Zhang stuck her head out and looked at the sky, and the pea-sized raindrops were falling down, "Ah, it's raining so hard, the meal will be ready soon, I'll boil some hot water, so the children don't get wet. "

When Aunt Zhang brought the hot water into the house, the children came in wet and led the horse.

"Come in and wipe your hair, take a shower, and change your clothes. The hot water has already been brought into the room. What about your elder brother and Huzi?"

The second child said, "Big brother and Huzi are running behind, and we both rode back on a horse. Dad is also behind."

After the whole family was served at the table, the sky was already dark, and only the sound of crackling rain could be heard, mixed with a few bolts of lightning and thunder.

Pei Xiu left the two brothers and sisters Zhang Xintang and Aunt Zhang to eat together, and they couldn't go back in such a heavy rain.

"How can this work, you can eat, my father will definitely come to pick us up in a while." Zhang Xintang shook his head sensible.

Aunt Zhang also said, "I'll go back when the rain stops. You eat quickly, and I'll just clean up after eating."

Pei Xiu brought her ignorant younger sister to sit by her side, and then asked several brothers to move their positions, pulling Zhang Xintang and Aunt Zhang over together.

"It's just a meal, you're welcome, sit down quickly, the rain doesn't seem to stop so soon, but don't starve, the two of you are still growing."

Zhou Heng asked Zhang Xintang to sit next to him. The two were at the same table and were of the same age, so they had the best relationship.

Zhang Xintang was wearing Zhou Heng's clothes, and his face was red. It was the first time he ate at someone else's house, so he looked left and looked again in embarrassment.

"Then I'm welcome." Aunt Zhang saw that the rain was so heavy that it might not stop for a while, and she didn't know when she would have to wait.

Looking at the dishes on a table, both meat and eggs, Zhang Xin cousins ​​were embarrassed to put down their chopsticks. Since sending him to read and read, their family only has meat dishes during Chinese New Year and festivals.

Pei Xiu saw that the two brothers and sisters did not dare to use chopsticks, and gave them and Aunt Zhang a piece of braised pork each, indicating that they were welcome and treated like their own home.

They just tasted delicious.

"Auntie, the meat is really delicious." Niu Niu's mouth was full of oil, and she looked at Pei Xiu with a smile.

She smiled and told her to eat slowly, and asked Aunt Zhang to be polite.

The thunder and lightning had stopped after the meal, but the rain was getting heavier and heavier. The two brothers and sisters anxiously stood under the porch and looked outside.

Pei Xiu reassured them, and when the rain stopped, someone from the family would definitely pick them up and let them go to play in the house with peace of mind.

She went to the house where Qiu Baize slept and cleaned it up. This house is very popular. When the rain is still so heavy, she will let the second child sleep here with the two brothers and sisters, and send them back tomorrow. The boss was afraid of Niuniu's bed-wetting, and was not willing to sleep with them.

Aunt Zhang had been sitting in the main room, and when the rain eased a little, she borrowed her robe and went back in the rain. Otherwise, who knows when the rain will stop and whether it will rain again.

When the rain stops, it gets dark. The children have already arranged to go to bed, and Pei Xiu and the others also plan to lie down.

At this moment, the courtyard door was knocked.

Zhou Cheng got up and went to open the door. It should be the two brothers and sisters.

She also got up and came out to see Zhou Cheng leading an honest middle-aged man in.

Zhang Xintang's father was soaked all over, and seeing Pei Xiu rubbing his hands, he said it again embarrassingly: "I'm so sorry, the two children have caused trouble for you, it's really raining too much, and I can't come here. I'm afraid I won't be able to bring it back when I come here, so I haven't come here until the rain is light." He told Zhou Cheng as soon as he entered the door.

"It's okay, the two children are very well behaved and are not troublesome at all. They are probably all asleep, you go in and watch." After speaking, they and Zhou Cheng led him into the room.

Seeing the three children sleeping on the kang through the moonlight, Father Zhang also felt relieved. The Zhou family also had a heart, and let the second child sleep with the two brothers and sisters. Before there was thunder and lightning and heavy rain, they were worried that it would be broken at home, for fear that the children would run around.

"It's still raining, and both of them are asleep. You probably won't be able to take them home, or you should leave them here for one night." Zhou Cheng said to Father Zhang.

"Yeah, it's still raining, but don't catch a cold. Don't worry, stay here, we'll send it back to you tomorrow morning."

"No need to send, no need to send, I'll come to pick them up early tomorrow morning, it's too much trouble for you." Father Zhang said gratefully.

"No trouble, do you want to change your clothes? You're getting wet." Pei Xiu asked kindly.

Father Zhang shook his head, "No need, I'll go back. I'm going to be exposed to the rain. I don't need to change it. I'll change it when I get home."

The three on the kang were all sound asleep, and their voices did not wake them up.

After sending Father Zhang away, the couple lay down again. After some tossing, Pei Xiu was also sleepy, and she didn't know when the rain stopped in the second half of the night~ When she woke up, it was already bright and the sun was shining through the window.

She stretched, opened the window, the sun was dazzling, and the air smelled of water vapor mixed with soil.

"Get up, come and have breakfast, they're all going out." Aunt Zhang was sewing small clothes under the porch, and when she heard the door open, she quickly put it down and brought her to the kitchen.

"No hurry, I'll wash up first. When did they leave?"

"When it was just dawn, when the two brothers and sisters followed them for morning exercise, Father Zhang came to take them back, and he also brought a basket of fruits and vegetables."

Pei Xiu nodded, "The Zhang family has a heart."

"Yes, Zhang's father and Zhang's mother and the older generation are diligent people. His family is willing to send their children to study, but the children are not good enough. A few of them are not suitable for reading, so they come back to farm after knowing a few words."

The family is also ambitious and visionary.
