Half of the people in the village went to sell grain, intending to live on sweet potatoes. The food was boiled and baked without even using oil. It was delicious and delicious, and even hungry. Children can also eat it.

Li Fu's grain was harvested, and almost every family was busy. On the last day of August, when I woke up in the morning, I felt that the sky was gloomy, and there was no sun all day. It was very dark that day, and in the middle of the night, there was a sudden thunder, The ground seemed to tremble, and then, the overwhelming rain fell.

Li Qinghe was awakened by the thunder, and Zhou Chengkang stood up next to him, "It doesn't matter, I'll go outside to have a look and put away my things."

It hasn't rained for several months, and many things are left in the yard after they are used up, or they are placed against the wall. There were still two bags of Li Fu's grain under the eaves. It was raining heavily outside. If he didn't carry the grain into the house, he would probably get wet.

She got up too, and all she could see was darkness in the night. The candlelight shone on the ground, and she saw that the rainwater falling on the ground merged into a small stream, and flowed towards the courtyard wall along the ditch where they used to flow out.

Zhou Chengkang ran out and carried the grain into the door. After a few breaths, when he rushed in, his clothes were already soaked. When Li Qinghe saw him, he hurriedly found out his dry clothes and gave them to him.

It has been raining heavily outside, and the rain is not slowing down. After tonight, maybe there will be no shortage of water.

"Actually, in my previous life, I remembered this heavy rain." Amidst the sound of rain, his voice was distorted.

Li Qinghe had closed her eyes to take a nap, but when she heard them open, there was no candle in the room, and the night was so dark that she couldn't see anything, only the strong arms around her waist were holding her.

In fact, Li Qinghe found out that something was wrong with him the morning he woke up. In his previous life, Zhou Chengkang didn't even talk to her much, let alone ran to her. The visit to the Xu family went smoothly, and there were no guests at all.

Last life

He bluntly said that in his previous life, he should have discovered something was wrong with her. And when Zhou Chengkang found out that she was wrong, she herself didn't know, in fact, she never concealed it in front of him.

He said in a low voice, "I remember I ran out in the middle of the night, just when you were buried in a mountain depression, the rainwater came from your side, I was busy pouring soil on you..."

"Don't talk about it." Li Qinghe touched his arm and felt goosebumps. Although she had seen this incident with her own eyes, it felt creepy when she heard it.

His low laughter came from behind, "Are you afraid?"

Li Qinghe turned over and hugged his waist, "According to what you said, do you know about the drought this year?"

"It's been too long, I can't remember clearly." Zhou Chengkang sighed, "I don't pay much attention to the things in the village, and I will send some things to my mother when I feel that life is difficult. In fact, it's okay. In the next few decades, then There has never been a catastrophe that would kill people."

Li Qinghe's eyes were sore when he heard it for decades, and he almost shed tears, "Are you lonely?"

He shook his head, stubble brushed across her forehead, a little itchy, "I always feel that you are with me. Are you... are you with me?"

Li Qinghe buried her head in his arms, "I think you are quite lonely, do you regret it?"

Indirectly admitted to accompany her, Zhou Chengkang put his hand on her stomach, just when her stomach started to move, he smiled, "To be able to stay with you for the rest of my life, and to have a baby, God really treats me well, If I do it all over again, I won't regret it."

The two talked in the middle of the night, and after confessing certain things, they only felt closer. The next morning, the rain was not too heavy. Their kitchen was built against the house, and they could pass directly along the eaves, but even if it was In this way, even if you lean against the eaves, your clothes will still be soaked by the rain.

It was extremely hot two days ago. When it rained, I felt that there was water vapor everywhere. I stood at the door of the house and looked at it. Zhou Chengkang simply shoved her back on the chair and touched her swollen belly. "You better not move!" , Wrestling is not for fun, I'm afraid you will suffer."

No one would think about wrestling. Mei's body is still a little weak now, and the child is also prone to illness. The lesson learned from the past is that Li Qinghe didn't have to go to the kitchen, so he sat back obediently and picked up the sewing basket.

Now she is eight months old, and she will give birth in more than a month. The baby's clothes and swaddling clothes are almost ready, but she can still make clothes for Zhou Chengkang, and after she has a baby, she wants to be quiet again. I'm afraid I can't make clothes.

When the food over there was ready and delivered to the door, Li Qinghe dropped his needle and thread, and the two of them ate. With such heavy rain, they couldn't go anywhere. He even went to see the chickens, and this year he also fed a pig. It's time to kill, and there are horses, we have to take a look. When he went out and walked around the yard and came back, he was drenched again.

He changed his clothes, it was already autumn, and when the autumn rain fell, it was cold, "Are you cold?"

In fact, she didn't need to answer, he had already gone to the utility room over there to search for last year's brazier and lit it.

The brazier was lit, and the room was warmed up. Zhou Chengkang sat opposite her, finished dividing the embroidery threads, and was a little idly about, "Is there anything else to prepare?"

Li Qinghe laughed, "I don't know for now, my memory is not very good."

When two people get along, even if they don't do anything, they just sit in the room and feel warm.

After two days of heavy rain, the rain gradually subsided, and the dry fields became much wetter. It was no longer the case of being covered in water vapor when going out. The water in the pond at the door was about to overflow. The side is much bigger than before, but it is a little muddy.

The small river in the village is more than half full of water compared to when it was not dry before, and the lower places have overflowed to the road.

Fortunately, they don't need to go out.

This day Zhou's mother came over with an egg and looked at Li Qinghe's stomach, "You guys don't understand anything at such a young age, why don't I move here now?"

Zhou Chengkang didn't refuse, "If you think it's okay, you can move here."

Mother Zhou is more in the house, but it’s actually pretty good. She will help with cooking, cleaning inside and outside the house, including feeding chickens and pigs. Today, she came back from feeding fish outside in the rain, and said in a low voice, “There is one thing I forgot to tell you. You said it was the time you were thieves this year. I heard two days ago that Zhao Tianfu brought a fishing net when he came back from the town one day. You said that the river was dry at that time, so his fishing net came to your pond to fish Besides fish, where else can I go to catch them?"

Zhou Chengkang frowned slightly, "Who did you listen to?"

"Several people in the village say that." Mother Zhou thought for a while, "I don't know who said it in the first place."

If there is no evidence, if you can't be sure, maybe someone is talking nonsense and deliberately provoking a conflict between Li Qinghe and him.

Originally, because Zhao Wanwan moved back to live, many people saw Li Fu's jokes, saying that he had helped others raise their daughter for nothing for so many years.

Moreover, after Mrs. Qian went back, she also went to Zhao's house several times. Although she came and went in a hurry, she was sensitive and gossiped a lot. If Zhao Tianfu was not surrounded by people now, the villagers would have spoken even worse.

Ever since Li Qinghe could remember, there had been very few rumors of sneaking around in this village. Of course, it was said that people were poor and stealing. This year is different, and some people must have thought about it.

In fact, after Zhou Chengkang came back, he didn't deliberately conceal the incident of being burglarized at home. Many people in the village also knew about it. After such a long time, it might be quite difficult to find out.

The most important thing is that Li Qinghe didn't really throw anything away, so many people didn't take it seriously, but secretly, more people kept dogs.

It has been raining recently, as if God wants to make up for the rain in the past six months. Since that night, it has not cleared up.

On this day, Yu Yan came over to talk to her with an embroidery work, she was very happy, and said in a low voice, "I'm pregnant."

"Really?" Li Qinghe looked her up and down, "You are fast enough."

Yu Yan glared at her, "Speak seriously."

"I'm going to let my godmother live here, but she doesn't agree. Those few recently want them to move out to make room. I can't say anything. When I grow up next year, she should be able to agree."

Not long after the two talked, Min Rui came to pick him up.

Looking at the backs of the two who left, they seemed to be talking in a low voice, and it seemed that both of them were very happy. Yu Yan has her own ideas the most. Few people change her mind on things she decides. She is a very smart person. When she picked up Min Rui back then, Li Qinghe didn't think she could really marry him. After all, she didn't know him. But looking at it now, Had a good time too.

In the afternoon of that day, Boss Zhou came over in a hurry. When he entered the door and saw Li Qinghe, he hurriedly asked, "Where's mother? The young couple started fighting."

Zhou's mother heard it in the kitchen, and went out a few steps, "What's the matter?"

again

Li Qinghe moved here and didn't go back very often. Hearing what this means, there are often quarrels over there

"The third younger sibling wants to go back, but the third younger brother won't let it go, they're going to fight, the children don't care, now Meihua is watching."

Zhou's mother frowned, and said to the two people here, "Then I'll go back and have a look, and pay attention to the pot."

When the mother and son left, Li Qinghe asked suspiciously, "Do you know why?"

Zhou Chengkang helped her into the door, "The Zhang family is going to move out, I haven't told you all this time."

If Zhang Haiyao's natal family wants to move out, it doesn't seem to have anything to do with her, and there is no need to hide it. The reason why they want to hide it... She was a little surprised, "Could it be that my mother and the others are leaving too?"
