As the saying goes, "Spring rain is as precious as oil."
In this season of revival and vitality, every drop of rain seems to be the most precious gift bestowed by nature to the world.
Qin Wan was sitting quietly cross-legged in the house, eyes closed, deep in meditation. Suddenly, he heard a faint but continuous sound coming from outside - a faint sound of water dripping.
With years of life experience, she instantly realized that it was raining!
Qin Wan quickly stopped practicing, stood up, and quickly left the space. She knew that Aunt Zhang and Aunt Yu would definitely bring back the four cute little kids from home.
Sure enough, not long after, Aunt Zhang and Aunt Yu were seen pushing the large baby carriage carefully on each side and slowly walking into the yard.
As soon as we got home, before the car even stopped, the four little ones in the car couldn't contain their excitement and scrambled to get out of the stroller.
Although these little guys are only nine months old, it is amazing that they have already learned the skill of running.
It’s a pity that since they are still so young, people are afraid that too much walking will cause damage to their tender legs, so they usually don’t dare to let them move around freely.
But once you return to the warmth and comfort of your home, the situation is completely different!
Qin Wan always spreads a large bamboo mat on the floor of the spacious living room in advance, and then neatly places a thick quilt on it.
Then, she would gently carry the four children out of the car one by one and place them steadily in this soft "little world".
Finally, Qin Wan did not forget to take out a bunch of colorful and various small toys and place them next to the children for them to play with.
Normally, as long as an adult is there to watch over them and ensure that there are no violent fights or accidents between these naughty little kids, there is basically no need to worry about taking care of them!
Those four children are indeed very sensible and well-behaved. Even if they play wildly and happily on weekdays, they always know how to keep a sense of proportion and propriety.
This made the adults around happy.
Aunt Zhang often said with emotion:
"Look at these four little guys. It's obvious they came all the way here to repay their mother's kindness! They don't want to let their mother suffer even a little bit."
As lunch time was approaching, Lu Yu hurried home after finishing his busy work in the army.
He was seen holding a lunch box steadily in one hand, and inside the lunch box was the fragrant and mouth-watering braised pork.
Before anyone else even stepped into the house, the rich and tempting aroma of meat had already wafted out and entered everyone's nose.
The little brats in the house instantly became like kittens smelling fish. They all shook their heads and staggered as they ran towards Lu Yu.
Lu Yu was so shocked by the scene in front of him that he trembled suddenly, and hurriedly handed the lunch box in his hand to Qin Wan.
Then, he opened his arms at lightning speed, hugged all four children tightly in his arms, and lifted them up high.
At this moment, Lu Yu suddenly did a surprising move - he picked up several children at once!
This action scared Aunt Yu and Aunt Zhang beside them. They were panicked and shouted in unison.
"Ouch! Xiao Lu, put the children down quickly. Don't let them fall if you hold them like this!" Aunt Yu shouted with a worried look on her face.
"Yes, yes, although each of them may not look heavy, their combined weight is quite heavy. Let's put them down quickly." Aunt Zhang also echoed anxiously.
However, in the face of the advice of the two aunts, Qin Wan just stood quietly by the side, with the corners of his mouth slightly raised, and chuckled, as if he didn't care about what was happening in front of him.
Lu Yu replied nonchalantly:
"Don't worry, Aunt Zhang, Aunt Yu. Even though these four little ones are heavy, I'm even stronger!"
As he spoke, he rocked the children in his arms lightly.
After being picked up by their father, the children were not afraid at all. Instead, they giggled with joy, and their clear laughter echoed in the air.
Time passed quickly and everyone finished lunch in the blink of an eye.
At this time, the rain outside gradually subsided. Qin Wan looked at the spring rain still falling outside the window and said thoughtfully:
"Now that the weather has started to warm up, after this rain, those cute little mushrooms on the mountain will surely pop up in large numbers like bamboo shoots after rain."
Hearing this, Lu Yu immediately became interested and turned around to ask:
"In that case, how about we go into the mountains together to pick mushrooms tomorrow?"
Qin Wan was tempted. She hadn't been up the mountain since she had the baby. However, she was hesitant. The baby was about nine months old, and although he could run, he wasn't very steady and would be difficult to care for. If she went up the mountain, Aunt Zhang and Aunt Yu would be very busy.
Aunt Zhang saw Qin Wan's worry and said with a smile:
"Xiao Qin, you can go without any worries. These little guys are very well behaved. Your Aunt Yu and I are more than capable of taking care of them."
Aunt Yu also said after hearing this:
"Isn't it just babysitting? It's not a big deal. If you want to go, go ahead. But I think now is the best time to go. Even though it's still raining, mushrooms picked in the rain are fresher and more tender."
Qin Wan knew this very well, so he smiled and said, "Well, let's set off now without further ado. I'll just have to trouble you two aunts."
Aunt Zhang smiled and said:
"Xiao Qin, look at you. We've been at your house for such a long time, and you're still so polite. Go quickly. If you don't go now, they might all be picked up by others."
Aunt Yu also nodded in agreement.
Lu Yu said, "Wanwan, since both aunts have agreed, let's go quickly."
"Okay, I'll pack up and we'll go."
Then, the two of them quickly put on their shoes, talked to the children, put on something to protect them from the rain, and then walked out of the house without hesitation.
You know, Qin Wan is a special being with supernatural powers. She has no fear at all about picking mushrooms in the rain.
Lu Yu, on the other hand, was a battle-hardened warrior king! Not only had he been nourished by the Spiritual Spring, he had also been taking various precious medicinal herbs to refine his body. So, how could a mere storm harm him?
In this way, the two of them climbed to the top of the mountain together and walked into a dense forest.
Just as they were discussing whether to continue moving deeper, suddenly, several figures came from another direction not far away.
Looking closely, they turned out to be Wang Yanhong, Ge Xiuxiu and Captain Wang's lover, Mrs. Liu.
At this moment, the sharp-eyed Ge Xiuxiu was the first to notice Qin Wan and immediately greeted him with a smile on her face:
"Wanwan, I didn't expect you to come out today!"
