Yu Yuehui, who had just finished showering, heard the laughter and thought he was awake. Feeling awkward, she secretly looked over and found Xie Yan sleeping soundly with rosy cheeks. The blanket he was covered with was kicked off, leaving only a corner on his stomach.

This was the first time Yu Yuehui had seen Xie Yan like this, and she couldn't help but go over and look at him closely. Xie Yan was even more dazzling under the lights, his whole body was shrouded in a soft glow, and he had a kind of hazy beauty.

Yu Yue was so mesmerized by the man's appearance that she thought, "This man is so handsome, and he's mine!" This thought made her even happier.

Yu Yue reached out and hugged Xie Yan. The person she had longed for was now lying beside her. This sense of satisfaction and happiness made her hug Xie Yan tightly.

When Xie Yan woke up the next morning, it was pitch black outside. This was the first time he had seen such weather since he came to Xi.

It looked like a storm was brewing, and even the usually chirping birds fell silent.

Startled, Xie Yan quickly got up, dressed, and ran outside to gather all the things that needed to be packed back inside.

Fortunately, since we had just arrived, we didn't have much stuff, and the thank-you banquet was packed up in no time.

Yu Yuehui must have been suddenly called away. The chicken coop was only half-built, and the rest of the things were scattered around. Xie Yan tidied up what needed to be tidied up and covered up what couldn't be tidied up. After everything was done, the sky outside became even more gloomy, as if it was about to fall.

Xie Yan was also worried about the situation at the wheat field. Logically, it should have been almost cleaned up, but Yu Yuehui had not returned, and Xie Yan was a little worried about the situation there.

I wanted to go over first to see if there was anything I could help with, but I was worried that my mother-in-law might need something.

After locking the door, Xie Yan hurried towards his father-in-law's house. Before meeting his father-in-law, Xie Yan thought the brigade leader's family was very prestigious!

What a wonderful life!

After getting to know them, I realized that their good life was entirely due to their son and daughter's abilities, and had absolutely nothing to do with him.

My father-in-law is the kind of person who is extremely responsible and firmly believes in the principle that collective interests outweigh personal interests. He values ​​the things of the brigade much more than his own family.

If necessary, they will even sacrifice their own interests for the sake of the team.

In weather like this, there's definitely no man in the house, and even his wife must have been called away by the brigade leader.

Sigh! No wonder his mother-in-law scolds him every day; he deserves it! This kind of person is really suitable to be a leader but not a family member.

When they arrived, they found it was exactly as Xie Yan had guessed: his mother-in-law was busy going in and out, carrying a huge pile of firewood into the house. She was carrying so much that she couldn't see the way ahead and was walking by feeling her way. Xie Yan was alarmed and quickly went over to take the firewood from her and carried it himself.

"Mom, I'll do it, you go pack the rest. I'll carry these inside. Is there anything else to pack?"

Qian Hong beamed when she saw her son-in-law. "Oh! It's Xie Yan! Have you packed everything? Did you bring extra firewood? Let me tell you! This dark and gloomy weather looks like it's going to rain for days, so you definitely need to prepare plenty of firewood!"

Xie Yan carried the firewood inside, replying as she did so, "Everything's ready, don't worry, Mother. I packed everything up before coming over. Where's the others? Did they all go to the threshing ground?"

Qian Hong pulled her grandson, who was in the way of her feet, away. "Go, go play somewhere else! You have no sense at all, can't you see it's going to rain?"

Turning to Xie Yan, he said in a friendly tone, "That's right, everyone else went to the wheat field to tidy up. Who knew the weather would change so suddenly? When we woke up this morning, the sky was full of sunshine, and everyone thought it was a good day. In order to let the wheat dry for a while, everyone carried the wheat out and put it out to dry early. We've been doing this for the past few days. Who knew the weather would suddenly change today?"

"I wonder how much wheat has been harvested over there, and whether we can get it back in time! If the wheat isn't harvested in time and gets soaked by the rain, then we're doomed! All our hard work this year will have been for nothing!" Qian Hong said worriedly, glancing towards the wheat field every now and then.

She was in a state of anxiety and restlessness! Although she hadn't gone there in person, her mind was completely there. When Xie Yan saw her like this, he gave up on going to the wheat field. He decided to let his mother-in-law go instead. After all, even if he went, he wouldn't be of much help. It would be better for him to stay home and take care of the children!

It's very dangerous for children to run out on rainy days. The river below will rise with the tide, and there have been cases where children have been swept away.

Xie Yan nowadays, every household leaves at least one person at home on rainy days to watch the children, just in case something unexpected happens.

After the banquet, she pulled Mao Dan aside and asked, "Mom, is there anything else you need to tidy up here?"

"That's all, it's all packed up!" Qian Hong sighed after saying that. "I wonder how things are at the wheat field?"

"Then I'll stay here and watch over Maodan'er. You go check on the wheat field over there!"

Upon hearing Xie Yan's words, Qian Hong was like a kite with a broken string, rushing towards the intersection while saying, "Okay, okay, then you keep an eye on Mao Dan and make sure he stays home and doesn't go out. I'll go check over there."

Before he could finish speaking, the person had already vanished!

Xie Yan sighed, thinking how impatient his mother-in-law was! She must have been waiting for him to say that one sentence.

He pulled Mao Dan into the house, saying, "Come on, Mao Dan, we're going to stay home and guard the house!"

Mao Dan was furious. He broke free from Xie Yan's hand, took two steps back, put his hands on his hips, and said loudly, "I'm three years old now, not a little kid anymore. I can help too, okay? Why should I stay at home with you and not go to the wheat field?"

"Also, please call me Yu Hui, Yu Hui, Yu Hui Yu Hui! Don't call me Mao Dan, I have a proper name!"

"Mao Dan, Mao Dan, what an awful name! Don't think he's too young to know. Mao Dan isn't a good name. Some educated youth secretly mocked their names before, saying they sounded like country bumpkins. Although he didn't know what a country bumpkin was, it certainly wasn't a good word. Humph!"

Later, he even went to ask his father, who said that buying balut (a type of fertilized egg) was a good name and told him not to overthink it. Bullshit! He wasn't overthinking it at all; he thought the adults just didn't want to tell him and were deliberately lying to him!

Don't think he doesn't know that "Mao Dan" and "Gou Dan" are not good names. Good names should be like those of educated youth, each one sounding so nice!
