“Yes, our Da Shun has wolf blood. He’s so fierce now. He’ll definitely be a great guard dog when he grows up,” Da Meng said.
Hands reached out to touch Da Shun, making him howl and scramble to find a place to hide.
I've never experienced such a grand enthusiasm before.
Grandma Qiao said, "Go easy on my dog, don't hurt him."
Everyone chatted idly, cracked melon seeds, ate sugar cakes, and laughed and talked. They were already used to the rainy season. What was different was that in previous years, the whole family would be frowning during the rainy season.
But this year, the bridge was repaired, and the river channel and diversion channels were all completed, so there's no need to worry about the crops in the fields.
Even if the crops are flooded, it doesn't matter, we have enough money to buy grain and flour.
So everyone was very relaxed.
Qiao Lian'er stared at the torrential rain for a while, thinking to herself, "It's really pouring."
And it will take another two weeks.
In my memory, there were torrential rains every day during this period, but it wasn't all the time, otherwise the houses would have been washed away. It rained for several hours every day.
The eldest son was cooking in the kitchen, and Qiao Yunni also went to help.
Grandma Qiao decided that the mother and daughter would no longer take turns doing kitchen work, because it was just the two of them. Qiao Lian'er would often have to lead everyone in doing chores, and Qiao Yunni couldn't handle it all by herself. She would lend a hand to everyone whenever she had time.
Because the rainy season is coming, Qiao Lian'er bought a lot of ingredients in the county town today, such as pork fat and lean pork, ribs and sausages, smoked goose and smoked duck, as well as various dried vegetables and vegetables. In fact, all of these can be grown in the Level 1 space, but she still bought a lot of each kind, because the secret of the space must be protected.
Amidst the torrential rain and constant lightning and thunder, the Qiao family sat around the table eating dinner. In previous years, they couldn't even eat during the rainy season, but tonight they ate with relish.
That feeling is truly different.
The wind was a bit strong. Old Man Qiao glanced at the cracked wall and saw rain blowing in, but he didn't feel sad anymore.
He calmly said, "After we've finished eating, let's block up all the drafty spots."
Everyone knows that Lian'er has already ordered the materials needed to build the house and hired craftsmen.
We'll start construction as soon as the rainy season is over.
We bought some tarpaulin and tiles in the county town in advance. After dinner, everyone got to work, first stuffing straw into the gaps, then sealing them with tarpaulin and nailing nails to the edges.
They climbed up the wooden ladder again and placed tiles on the leaking parts of the roof. Then they covered the bottom of the roof with an oilcloth.
After a little over an hour, the work of protecting against rain and wind was basically completed.
The heavy rain continued until 9 PM before gradually stopping, but looking up at the sky in the night, dark clouds still accumulated, forming a dark and oppressive mass, making the night seem even more gloomy and evoking a sense of fear of something enormous.
Only then did the village begin to bustle.
Normally, by 9 PM, almost everyone in the village would be asleep, but now, worried about the crops in the fields, no one can sleep.
Qiao Lian'er taught everyone some radicals for a while, then lay on the bed to cook in the kitchen.
She wanted to develop the livestock farm, orchard, and fishpond, but after thinking about it, she decided to focus on unlocking advanced items first.
Otherwise, if you use so many gold coins at once, it will be difficult to earn them back in the short term.
The heavy rain poured down all night, and when I got up in the morning, I could hear the sound of streams flowing everywhere, especially the drainage ditch behind the house, which was flowing very happily.
"Look at the river!" came the excited shout from the Qi family below.
