Chapter 165

Seeing the determination in Xiaowa's eyes, Yan Shiqing had no choice but to shake her head and lie down on her side.

I don't know when, the humidity of the air became higher and higher, and gradually the sound of "ta, tap" began to be heard outside.

Then the sound became louder and louder, and the speed of falling on the eaves became faster and faster.

Sitting on the chair, the little boy opened his eyes, looked back at Yan Shiqing, who was sleeping soundly, and quietly got up and left the room.

For her, whose kung fu is not bad, the dark night, like day, has no influence on her at all.

Yan Shiqing's sleep was very light, and she woke up when the baby went out.

When I heard the sound of heavy rain outside the door, I got up too.

It's been raining a lot, and I haven't found anyone to repair the roof. I don't know if there is any leakage.

The little boy was re-roofing Yan Shiqing's room on the roof in the rain, when he suddenly saw candlelight coming from the room below, and knew that she had woken up.

Yan Shiqing heard someone moving the tiles on the roof. Thinking of the little baby, she walked out and said softly: "Little baby, are you up there?"

The little boy responded imperceptibly: "Yes, Master, please don't come out. It's raining heavily outside, and it won't be good if you get wet!"

Since there was no clock or hourglass, Yan Shiqing had no idea what time it was. Thinking that the baby would be soaked all over, she entered the kitchen with an oil lamp.

The kitchen was leaking badly, and not long after it rained, a shallow layer of water had already spread on the ground.

Yan Shiqing carefully avoided the rain and walked to the earthen stove to put down the oil lamp. Then she picked up the remaining water in the bucket and poured it into the pot before placing the bucket under the eaves.

The rainwater here is precious and there is no pollution. The water collected under the eaves can be eaten directly after being filtered for two or three times.

Xiaowa worked very quickly. After re-roofing the room where Yan Shiqing lived, he saw candlelight coming from the kitchen and walked there again.

After Yan Shiqing heated up the hot water, Xiaowa also re-covered the kitchen roof tiles.

Aunt Huo couldn't sleep well all night because she was thinking about Yan Shiqing. At this time, she heard noises coming from the next room and the kitchen, so she got up, lit the oil lamp, and walked out.

"This rain is really heavy!"

Yan Shiqing and Xiao Wa in the kitchen heard the sound and hurriedly came out: "Mother Huo, is there a water leak in your room?"

Aunt Huo looked back at Yan Shiqing, her eyes were very complicated.

Is this a lucky star or a bad star?

No, it should be Lucky Star.

Premature babies are weak and their age can be faked.

At that time, everyone in the capital spread the news that it started to rain that day because of the evil star that had been dug up.

In fact, it should be because the sky is so loving that it cannot bear the suffering of the world, so it rains, right?

No wonder she thought Nanny Huo looked familiar before. It turned out that she was Luo Jiaocheng's nanny back then!

Let's just say that her confidence is a bit inexplicable. She turned out to be Luo Jiaocheng's nanny, and later the nanny next to the Crown Princess, so it's no wonder.

"It looks like the rain won't stop for a while today."

Yan Shiqing couldn't see the clouds and didn't know much about meteorology, so she didn't know much about it.

She only knows what state the clouds are in and what kind of weather it might be like.

For example, folded lenticular altocumulus clouds are most likely earthquake clouds. The morning glow does not go out, but the sunset glow travels thousands of miles.

After hearing what Nanny Huo said, she said, "If the matter in the house is not urgent, Nanny can stay here for a few more days."

Aunt Huo smiled and said: "If I have the chance, I will definitely stay here for a few more days, but I'm afraid I won't be able to do it tomorrow. When the old slave came out earlier, he told his wife that he would go back that day. He hasn't returned all night.

It’s not convenient to inform you, Madam may be in a hurry!”

What's more important is that she has something to tell Huo Yiyi. How can she continue to live here?

While Yan Shiqing was chatting with Aunt Huo, Xiaowa went up to the roof again, and through the candlelight leaking out, re-covered the tiles on Aunt Huo's roof.

It seems that Yan Shiqing was lucky. Since Ruan Ning had no children, the old couple spent all the money they earned throughout their lives on food and accommodation. Especially when most people in the village still had thatched roofs, their house was already a tile-roofed house.

Although this house is quite old, it is much better than other houses in Ruanjiakeng on this day of heavy rain.

Many houses with thatched roofs in Ruanjiakeng were flooded with water at night due to the heavy rain, making it difficult for anyone to sleep.

But even so, every household still smiled.

It’s raining heavily. It hasn’t been like this for how many years?

At this time in previous years, it would never rain.xdw8

Everyone was busy packing up all the items in the house that could hold water and filling them with water. The children were sent to sleep in a house that did not leak. The old couple or the young couple laughed like fools and sat in the leaky house chatting happily.

There was also a young man with good health who was not afraid of the cold at all. He took off his shirt and stood in the yard in the rain, saying he was taking a shower!

That night, the villagers in Ruanjiakeng were all smiling. It was not until the sky began to light up slightly and people saw that the rain was still not letting up that they packed up and started going from house to house.

Aunt Huo stayed up all night, chatting here and there with Yan Shiqing, and before she knew it, this hour had arrived.

Seeing that it was getting dark, Yan Shiqing planned to make breakfast.

As soon as there was a noise in the kitchen, the voices of Mrs. Ruan and Xiang Tao came from the main room.

Not long after, the grandfather and grandson also arrived in the kitchen.

Xiangtao saw Yan Shiqing cooking porridge and hurriedly stepped forward: "Sister Shiqing, why did you get up so early? I'll come, I'll come, you go and rest!"

Yan Shiqing did not refuse, and after making way for the fire, she said to Mrs. Ruan: "Grandma, Grandma Huo insists on going back today. I'll call my cousin first and ask if anyone is going to town today.

"

Mrs. Ruan glanced at Aunt Huo and Yan Shiqing, and saw the faint dark circles under their eyes. She knew that the two of them had not slept all night, and she was afraid that Aunt Huo would not be used to life in the countryside, so she did not refuse:

"It's raining heavily outside. Your aunt's raincoat was left in the hall last night and she forgot to take it back. Please wear it and go there to avoid getting wet."

Yan Shiqing nodded, and as soon as she entered the hall and put on her raincoat, she heard a knock on the door.

"Who?"

"Poetic girl, it's your uncle and me, Ruan Yang!"

When Yan Shiqing heard that it was Ruan Yang, she hurriedly went out and opened the door: "Cousin, what's the matter with you coming this morning?"

Ruan Yang was sitting on the bullock cart at this time. When he heard this, he smiled and said: "Didn't you tell your Aunt Xiaohua yesterday that the steward was going back today? I went back last night and borrowed the bullock cart.

I'll send her back in a while. I'm going to go to the Yamen to set up a female household for you. By the way, to set up a female household, you need to have the title deed of the household registration house. I just looked at the six acres of open space to the east of the village entrance.

It's in your name. I told your aunt, if you want to see it, ask your aunt to take you there. If you're not satisfied, wait until I come back and we can change it!"
