After dinner, the rain not only showed no signs of stopping, but instead poured down harder.
Amidst the rumbling thunder, many residents turned off their lights and went to bed early.
But some younger children don't want to go to bed so early.
"Dad, I need to pee!"
In the front yard, at the home of the third uncle, the third son, Yan Jiekuang, stood at the door, his little hands already clenched into fists.
"Little brat, you can pee anywhere! Just walk a little closer to the door and do it!" Yan Bugui waved his hand dismissively. "The rain is so heavy, it's not going to stop anytime soon."
Yan Jiekuang nodded, rolled up his trouser legs, and then stepped over the threshold and started spitting.
After finishing his spittle, Yan Jiekuang pulled up his pants with satisfaction and skipped back into the house.
Yu Li, who was leaning back in her chair, reached out and nudged Yan Jiecheng, saying in a low voice, "Jiecheng, I need to go to the toilet, um... the big one."
Yan Jiecheng glanced outside the door. With this torrential rain, forget about going to the public toilet; he'd probably be soaked before he even reached the alley.
His younger brother can urinate at the door as he pleases, but his wife certainly can't.
Moreover, Yu Li still wants to have a major surgery.
"It's gotten cooler, but the rain is getting heavier and heavier," Yan Jiecheng complained, then looked at Yu Li and said, "It's okay, we have umbrellas and raincoats at home, I'll go find some for you."
A short while later, Yan Jiecheng found an umbrella.
Although the umbrella is a bit old, Uncle San would take it out from time to time to check it and wipe it clean.
"Come with me." Yu Li glanced at the heavy rain outside the door, too afraid to go alone.
On a rainy day, and with darkness falling, and no one to keep her company, she preferred to stand by the door like Yan Jiekuang.
"You're going to the toilet, what am I supposed to do with you?"
Upon hearing this, Yu Li's eyebrows furrowed, and she began to berate Yan Jiecheng.
“When Chen Jun was cleaning up his bathroom, I said I should get one too, so that it would be convenient to take a shower and also be able to use the toilet at home.”
"Look how convenient it is for them now. They don't have to go to the toilet outside in spring, summer, autumn and winter, and they don't have to go on rainy days. If you had listened to me back then, I wouldn't have needed you to go to the public toilet with me."
Seeing that his wife was angry, Yan Jiecheng glanced helplessly at Yan Bugui.
It's not that he doesn't want to pretend!
It's clearly my own father who won't allow me to do this.
They talk about Chen Jun's conditions and our family's conditions, but they only learn from Chen Jun's enjoyment without learning his abilities.
When it comes to spending money, Yan Bugui has always been very stingy.
"Yes, it would be really good to have a toilet. I heard from the people in the yard that as long as the sun is out during the day, the Chen family takes a bath every night." The third aunt, who had been silent until now, chimed in, "And I heard that it's very convenient for them to use the toilet. After they're done, they just pull the rope and water comes out to flush everything away. It's clean and hygienic."
"If we had this at home, we wouldn't have to worry about going to the toilet even in the heaviest rain."
Ouch?
Yan Bugui then realized that this was a complaint against me for not fixing the bathroom at home.
“Our family can’t compare to the Chen family. Of the four of them, only Lin Yao doesn’t earn money. The other three earn more than the other one. Look at our family, only Jie Cheng and I earn money.”
"The cost of repairing a bathroom is enough to feed our family for several months. Can't you do the math?"
Let alone their family, even Yi Zhonghai wouldn't be willing to spend this money, right?
Hearing his father's displeasure, Yan Jiecheng shrank back and put on a raincoat: "Come on, I'll go with you to the public restroom."
Meanwhile, Jia Zhangshi, who rented a room in the backyard, was overjoyed to see the torrential rain outside.
"Pour, pour, pour as much as you can, the bigger the better!"
She hadn't rested for a single day after pulling the manure cart for so long; not only were her shoulders in severe pain, but her legs had also started to ache in the last few days.
In Jia Zhangshi's words, these health problems are all caused by working hard for the family.
If this rain continues for several days, she can take several days off in a row.
"Mom, please stop talking. With this heavy rain, even going to the toilet is a problem."
Qin Huairu took out the chamber pot from the house, filled it with some rainwater, rinsed it, and then casually splashed it into the yard next door.
They couldn't rent a house with a front yard this time, so they could only manage to rent a small covered house in the backyard.
Although the area is small, it is just enough for a family to live in.
“What’s so difficult about going to the toilet? Chen Jun has a toilet in his house, so we can just go to his house,” Jia Zhangshi said matter-of-factly.
She had heard from people in the neighborhood a while ago that Chen Jun had built a bathroom at home.
Not only can you take a hot shower at home, you can also use the toilet at home.
Jia Zhangshi was immediately tempted.
Because of the manure cart, Jia Zhangshi had almost become saturated with the flavor of the dish, and even Bang Geng was somewhat reluctant to sit with her.
So being able to take a hot shower at home every day is a huge attraction for her.
During this time, Jia Zhangshi inquired about repairing a bathroom, but gave up immediately after hearing the price.
The Jia family couldn't afford to repair it, and even if they did, it wouldn't be their own house.
"I wouldn't dare go, I'm afraid I'll get slapped across the face," Qin Huairu said.
Madam Jia Zhang flew into a rage: "Qin Huairu, what do you mean?"
"What I mean is that Chen Jun has a bad temper and likes to slap people at the drop of a hat." Qin Huairu felt that she had touched Jia Zhangshi's sore spot, so she touched her already protruding belly in front of her.
"snort!"
Madam Jia glanced at her belly, forcibly suppressing her anger, and then began to grumble and curse.
Qin Huairu didn't even need to listen to know that Jia Zhangshi was cursing Jia Dongxu.
If Jia Dongxu hadn't squandered his wealth, the Jia family wouldn't have fallen to this state.
Of course, after scolding Jia Dongxu, Jia Zhangshi would also scold the people in the courtyard, a habit she had developed in recent months.
Turning her head away from Jia Zhangshi's grumbling, Qin Huairu looked worriedly at the pouring rain outside the door.
She was pregnant, so she needed to go to the toilet more often than the average person.
It was dark and the road was slippery, and he couldn't find anyone to accompany him to the public toilet.
As she was thinking, Qin Huairu suddenly felt an urge to urinate.
broken!
Why did you suddenly come?
Qin Huairu sighed inwardly, then picked up the chamber pot and went inside.
Just as these people were worrying about finding a toilet, Chen Jun walked out of the bathroom looking refreshed.
It's raining heavily outside, but taking a hot shower inside is so comfortable!
"Bang bang bang, bang bang bang, brother, open the door!"
Um?
Why is Lin Yao here?
As Chen Jun got dressed, he gestured for Chen Xueru to open the door.
Something must have happened, otherwise Lin Yao wouldn't have come looking for them at this time.
