Chapter 398 I'm so happy here

The two parted ways and hurriedly ran home.

Shu Yu went back to her room and quickly took off her outer clothes. Luckily, they had returned early, and the rain wasn't too heavy yet.

She hung the clothes on the rack; they should be dry soon.

Shu Yu exhaled, took a dry handkerchief and wiped her hair slightly, listening to the increasingly loud rain outside the window, her eyes curving slightly.

She never expected to have such a harvest from her trip. She needs to think about the cultivation process of these sunflower seeds.

As Shu Yu pondered this, she drifted off to sleep.

When I woke up the next day, it was still raining, and the whole sky was filled with misty water vapor. The huge village seemed to be filled only with the sound of rain.

Shu Yu finished tidying up and went out of the room, and saw Xiao Zhen squatting on the steps, looking at the rain curtain in front of her, her little hands occasionally reaching out to catch water, her face blank, and she didn't know what she was thinking.

Shu Yu turned around, went back to her room, got two candies, walked over to her, squatted down, and popped one into her mouth.

Xiao Zhen was taken aback and turned around in surprise. "Sister Ayu." Sweet.

"What are you thinking about? You seem so engrossed." She stuffed the remaining candy into her hand.

Xiao Zhen smiled, glanced towards the kitchen, and then whispered to Shu Yu, "Sister Shu Yu, I'll tell you a secret."

"What secret?" Shu Yu lowered her voice, just like her.

Xiao Zhen said, "I feel so happy here. My parents and younger brother are all with me. Although this is Sister Ayu's home, I like it here more. When I get up early in the morning, there are no shouts from my grandparents, and no arguments from Aunt Yao and Uncle Yao next door."

Before the family separated, my grandparents would always get up early in the morning and start cursing and swearing, deliberately shouting loudly at their door.

Later, they separated their households, and although the four of them lived alone, Aunt Yao from next door couldn't stand them. She would deliberately come to this side of the courtyard wall and make sarcastic remarks to them.

But when she woke up today, not only were her parents by her side, but everything was also quiet except for the sound of raindrops, which was very pleasant.

Shu Yu patted her head and said, "Your good days are yet to come."

"Yes, I think so too. Grandma said that this is what they call 'after hardship comes happiness'."

The two of them immediately laughed. As they were talking, Lu Sixing walked over and said, "Ayu, you're up? Are you hungry? Breakfast is ready, come and eat."

Shu Yu led Xiao Zhen to the kitchen, and as they were drinking porridge, they heard a knock on the door.

The sound of rain was a bit noisy, and no one heard it at first. It was only when Shuyu heard the knocking and the familiar shouts that she realized what was happening.

She quickly ran over with her umbrella to open the door, and sure enough, Da Niu and Lu Dasong were standing outside.

Lu Dasong went to see Yuan Shanchuan and talked to Lu Sixing, while Da Niu pulled Shu Yu aside and asked, "I don't think this rain will stop anytime soon. We definitely won't be able to get back to the county town this morning. Do you think that Old Yuan is in a hurry to sell these melon seeds? Will he leave this morning?"

Does that mean they'll never run into each other?

Shu Yu took a bite of her flatbread, thought for a moment, and said, "In this kind of weather, even oxcarts and donkey carts won't be out picking up passengers, right?"

Da Niu nodded, "Not many people go out in this kind of weather, they usually don't go out to pick up passengers."

"Unless Boss Yuan wants to go to the county town in the pouring rain, he probably won't leave." It would take quite a while to walk to the county town.

But it's hard to say, since Mr. Yuan does seem quite anxious.
