Before the three of them arrived at Dongshi, it started to rain.
The vendors and vegetable sellers in the eucalyptus forest hurriedly put their things into their homes and ran back in a hurry.
"What a terrible weather. It was fine when we left the stall, but it's raining again?" Yang Liying complained about the weather, quickly took out the oilcloth and covered the tofu and tofu to prevent rainwater from falling into the bucket.
Lin Lan has a cart, so she doesn't have to worry about the cakes being damaged by the rain. She only needs to put away the thin baskets containing the cakes and put them in the carriage.
Xiaodouzi put down the toys in his hands, stood on tiptoes, and put the orchid beans on top into the basket: "Mom, let me help you."
"You stand under the awning, don't get wet by the rain." Lin Lan pulled him under the awning.
Teacher Zheng is sick, and the children are all at home during the holidays, otherwise it would be troublesome if they get wet when they come home from school on a cold day.
Hou Bing smiled and said: "Lin Lan's stroller is still comfortable. It doesn't panic even if it rains."
"Yes!" Zhou Xiaohong put the backpack on Lin Lan's cart, "If I hadn't thought it wouldn't last long, I would have found someone to make a stroller like this."
Li Wu responded with a smile: "That's right! Why didn't Xiangyang want to make one before?"
Hou Gui walked up to Li Wu with his clothes on his back and glanced at him: "You kid, Xiangyang even gave me a car as a gift before, but you didn't dare to show it off."
Zhou Xiaohong nodded: "That's right, when you were driven away like a chicken thief, you forgot!"
In the past, setting up a stall was like guerrilla warfare. No one dared to push out a target as big as a cart and set up a stall.
While everyone was talking and joking, the subordinates did not stop. They put the stall away in a hurry. Some took out a urea bag and folded a corner button on the bag to use as a raincoat. Some took out an oilcloth to tie it up.
Covering his head and back, he ran back quickly.
Li Xiangyang walked to Lin Lan's stall holding his backpack: "Douzi, we are back."
Xiaodouzi folded a urea bag and handed it to him: "Uncle Xiangyang, I'll give you a pointed hat."
Li Xiangyang smiled and took it, put it on his head, and asked him with a smile: "Does it look good?"
"It looks good!" Xiaodouzi put the other one on his head with a smile, "Uncle Xiangyang, look, I have one too."
Li Xiangyang carried him to the cart: "Sit tight and I will drag you back."
Xiaodouzi hugged his neck and stuck out his butt: "The cart is swinging around. I like to sit on the big bar."
"You brat, let's sit on the big bar." Li Xiangyang smiled and carried him to the big bar, and said to Lin Lan who was helping Yang Liying clean up, "Let's go!"
Lin Lan turned back: "Okay, be careful!" Several people hurried back against the cold wind and rain.
The rain was getting heavier and heavier. Li Xiangyang stopped the car and carried Xiaodouzi into the cart. He looked back through the rain and fog and saw that Lin Lan and Yang Liying were still behind him. He thought about rushing back to pick them up.
Li Xiangyang took out a rope and carried Xiaodouzi on his back: "Douzi, hold your arms around uncle's neck, don't fall."
"Yeah!" Xiaodouzi hugged Li Xiangyang and leaned her head on his back. Feeling so beautiful in her heart, she put her head in and gave Li Xiangyang a kiss.
Li Xiangyang was stunned for a moment and said with a smile: "You brat!"
He quickly returned home, placed the beans on the eaves, and pushed the cart into the wind and rain.
Halfway through, they saw Zhao Dehai holding an umbrella and picking up the two of them, and the four of them hurried back.
Yang Liying and his wife went home directly. Lin Lan went back to the house and scooped out a large basin of hot water from the sand jar, washed Xiaodouzi's face, took off his cloth shoes, and asked him to lie down on the bed.
He came out and said to Li Xiangyang: "Your hair is wet. Wash it quickly. I'll make some ginger tea to go away the cold."
Li Xiangyang nodded with a smile and took the water to the eaves of the back door. He asked Lin Lan to get the shampoo, and then asked her to get a towel.
Lin Lan looked at the foam on the back of his neck, suspecting that he deliberately didn't rinse it off, and slapped his vest angrily: "Hold up a little, and I'll scoop some water for you to rinse off the foam on the back."
"Yeah!" Li Xiangyang leaned forward and asked Lin Lan to help her rinse her hair.
"Okay, it's clean!" Lin Lan took a dry towel and put it on his head.
Li Xiangyang wiped off the water in twos and twos, looked at her with a smile, and said softly: "Xiaolan, help me wipe my back." He turned around and arched his body.
"Pretend to be weird!" Lin Lan glared at him angrily, washed the towel, opened his coat, blushed, and scrubbed him clean, "Okay!"
Li Xiangyang looked at her with a smile and said nothing.
Lin Lan put the towel into the basin and stood up. Li Xiangyang leaned forward, trapped her against the wall, and looked at her deeply: "Xiaolan, I miss you."
"Fool!" Lin Lan's voice couldn't help but soften, "I'm not in front of you."
Li Xiangyang looked at her without saying anything, with unconcealable desire in his bright black eyes.
Lin Lan looked at his angular face, red and plump lips, and slightly squirming Adam's apple and swallowed hard, "Xiang...Xiang Yang, let me go, the beans are out."
Li Xiangyang looked at her without saying anything, then slowly moved closer to her, with the tip of his tall nose touching hers. He whispered in her ear, "I miss you, and I want to have a wedding reception as soon as possible."
His deep voice was filled with an indescribable fascination, like a foxtail brush brushing against his ears. Lin Lan's heart started to beat wildly, "On the eighth day of April next year, very soon..."
But before she finished speaking, Li Xiangyang suddenly put a hand behind her head and captured her lips with a strong force.
Lin Lan looked at him with his eyes slightly closed, kissing her lightly, and caressing her ear with his right hand, tenderly. At that moment, she felt that she was the most precious treasure he held in his hands.
"Where are the people!" Voices suddenly came from the kitchen, "Lin Lan, Xiang Yang, Douzi..." It was Brother Yong and the others who were back.
The two of them hurriedly separated like frightened rabbits.
"Here!" Li Xiangyang took a deep breath and cleared his throat. His voice was still a little hoarse and low, "I thought you would come back tomorrow." After that, he stepped into the kitchen.
Lin Lan felt that her face was about to burn, so she hurriedly knelt down and put a towel on her face. The cold towel covered her face, and she felt that her face was not so hot anymore.
Lin Yuezhen came over and pulled her clothes with a smile. Lin Lan took off the towel and smiled awkwardly: "Sister, you are back!"
Lin Yuezhen nodded and pointed to Qiao Hui who was standing at the back door.
Qiao Hui blushed and shouted nervously: "Cousin!" She thought her cousin was really good-looking and didn't look like a country girl at all.
"Hey!" Lin Lan responded and looked at the thin, small, palm-sized face, small nose, small eyes, and small mouth, which looked quite pleasing to the eye when put together, and said with a smile: "You are
Be clever!"
"Yeah!" Qiaohui looked at Lin Lan's smiling face and her heart dropped.
Only then did Lin Lan realize that their hair was wet and their coats were soaked, so she hurriedly said: "Sister Yuezhen, take Qiaohui to wash up and change into clothes. I'll cook."
Lin Yuezhen nodded with a smile, took the basin handed to her by Lin Lan, and took Qiao Hui to scoop out water and wash it.
