62. Chapter 62: 062, House Leakage Meets Evening Rain 3
"So you came to Banxia's house. No wonder I can't find you. The place where the bed faces Banxia is leaking. Why don't you sleep with your mother at night?"
The rain outside has begun to fall heavily, and the rainwater pours directly onto the ground.
"Mom, I sleep with my sister!" Lu Banxia shook her head.
"You can't sleep in your sister's room. It also started leaking when I went there just now. The wind was strong just now. When it blew, a big hole opened up in her roof, and you can see the sky outside."
He Chunmei was a little helpless, "Your sister's bedding has been taken to my mother's room. Let's go and have a rest. I hope the rain will stop soon."
The two siblings were stunned for a moment, then nodded and followed He Chunmei all the way to He Chunmei's house, turning east and west to avoid the leaky places.
When she opened the door and saw the basin on the ground to collect water, Lu Ziyuan also sighed. Sure enough, there was no room in the whole house that could be seen. When it rained, there was no room that was not leaking.
He Chunmei's kang was not big, and although there was no fire on the kang that day, it was still a little uncomfortable for three people to squeeze together on this sultry early autumn night.
Lu Banxia was still young, so she kept her eyes open for a while, probably because her sister and mother were around and she didn't have to worry about anything, so she fell asleep after a while.
Lu Ziyuan was fanning Lu Banxia, who was squeezed in the middle, with a cattail leaf fan to prevent him from getting a heat stroke. She was also staring at the water basin on the ground in the room, listening to the sound of water droplets dripping.
"Mom, I guess it's going to rain until tomorrow morning, but I still don't know. It hasn't rained for a long time. God has held back enough rain now." Lu Ziyuan sighed, "It really happens that the house leaks all night long.
Rain, literally every word is missing."
When it doesn't rain, although this house looks shabby, I don't think it will be so shabby that no one can live in it. Only when it rains do I realize how shabby this house is.
"Yes, fortunately you have made money. It won't take long for us to get rid of this kind of life." He Chunmei continued with half joy and half worry, "Aster, you should go to sleep too."
Where can I sleep? Lu Ziyuan smiled bitterly. If you don't watch the water basin carefully, you will take it out and pour it out when it is full. It won't be long before this house will be flooded with water.
"Aster Mother, Aster Mother!" In the yard, Lu Donglin stood outside the house holding a broken umbrella and shouted at the top of his lungs.
"Mom, it's the second uncle's voice!" Lu Ziyuan was the first to hear it, got up, opened the door of the house and went to the yard.
"Second uncle, why are you here? Come in quickly. You see your clothes are all wet." Lu Ziyuan quickly pulled her second uncle in. Although he was holding an umbrella, the broken umbrella was just like hers.
The house also leaked everywhere, and few families in this farmhouse had a good umbrella.
"Hurry up and ask your mother to take Brother Xia to the second uncle's house to stay for one night. It's going to rain for a long time. It's hot and muggy, and the house is leaking. Be careful, you might get sick." Lu Donglin just stood in the house.
He didn't go in through the door, and the thunder was so loud that he strained his throat and shouted when he wanted to speak.
He Chunmei heard the voice and followed Lu Ziwan out. When she heard Lu Donglin's words, she felt very embarrassed at first, but when she thought that Lu Banxia was still young, she was afraid of getting sick, so she nodded and went in to wake up Lu Banxia who had just fallen asleep.
Although the two families were not far apart, everyone was still soaked to the skin after running in the rain for about an hour with a broken umbrella and old clothes.
