Chapter 7 - Rain
"Mother, today brother beat up a wild chicken. Xiao Yan and I have already stewed it in the pot. "Now that I think about it, the stew should be ready by now. Please take a rest for a while, I'll go and bring it out." Mo Xiao Xia said as he quickly went to the kitchen.
He skillfully placed the chicken and mushrooms into a large bowl, then filled everyone's bowl with chicken soup. In the other pot, there were still sweet potatoes steaming. A few people were eating sweet potatoes with chicken soup. It didn't take them much time to finish all the food on the table. Mo Xiao Yan enjoyed his meal to his heart's content, and burped while rubbing his stomach.
In the modern world, Mo Xiao Yan had never experienced being hungry to this extent, and there was almost a meal of meat every day. Now that they had arrived here, their days were much more bitter. Every day, they would drink brown rice porridge and feel like they had never eaten their fill before. It wasn't easy for them to finally eat their fill today.
"Mom, you've been tired all day. I'll clean up the kitchen today. You can go rest, and Second Sister, you can go rest as well. Before, I was too lazy to play around, so I didn't do any housework, but today, you guys can all rest. Mo Xiao Yan took the initiative to take care of the chores, causing the entire family to be shocked. The little girl normally did not do these, but today she was rather diligent.
Lee's did not stop him. He thought that he would have to get married in the future anyway. Now that he knew it was better for him to learn how to do household chores. She didn't want others to look down on her in the future, so she finally understood.
Just as Mo Xiao Yan finished cleaning up the wok, he heard thunder outside and the wind was blowing harder than before. The sky had also darkened a lot, so after Mo Xiao Yan arranged the tableware neatly, he went out to see if it was raining, and as soon as he came out, raindrops fell.
The rain got heavier and heavier, and adding on to the fact that there was a strong wind blowing, Mo Xiao Yan was covered in raindrops. Just then, Mo Xiao Xia who was in the house shouted: Xiao Yan, quickly come in. It's raining so hard, you will get drenched if you stand under the roof.
Mo Xiao Yan quickly ran in to close the door, and the whole room was leaking. If this continued, what would he do next night's rain? Mo Xiao Xia was also very anxious, but he couldn't think of a good plan either.
At this time, Mo Lin Yu came out of his room, he looked at the roof which was leaking, and said: "When the weather clears, I will go and renovate the roof, and I will forget about the matter if it doesn't rain during this period of time."
The ground beneath his feet was covered with raindrops, causing him to be afraid of slipping.
"Second Sister, how many pots do we have at home? "Just use it to catch this leaking place." "… … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … Mo Xiao Yan said.
Mo Xiao Xia seemed to have thought of something as she stomped her feet and said: "That's right, why didn't I think of it?
Mo Xiao Xia brought out two wooden basins and connected it with the rain-leaking place. The whole family sat and chatted for a while, it was already late in the evening. It was still drizzling outside, and the leak in the house was already very slow. Mo Xiao Yan and Mo Xiao Xia each carried a bucket of water and poured it down. After a simple pack, she went to rest.
When he woke up, the sky was already bright. After breakfast, Lee's went to his usual home to wash his clothes. Mo Xiao Yan sat in the courtyard in a daze, thinking about what kind of small business he should do. His family was already so poor, and since he had come here, he should live a better life for his family.
Mo Xiao Yan was very confident in this point. In the past, he was the top student in school, and he was pretty beautiful, but he was also from the same class. During the summer vacation, when he went to work part-time, the manager and customers would often praise him and even reward him for being a good employee. In many ways, he did very well and was accepted into one of the top companies before he even graduated. Life in modern times is quite smooth, in ancient times, naturally can not fall behind.
