This rain was heavier than the previous ones, it could be said to be a downpour.
People who originally planned to simply take shelter from the rain at the foot of the mountain hurried up the mountain when they saw that the situation was not right.
Some went to the dilapidated temple nearby.
Some went to nearby villages.
The rain was so heavy that we couldn't even fight the war in the south.
The Crown Prince and several princes had no choice but to call a halt to the fighting, saying they would just rest on the spot and wait for the weather to clear before fighting again.
Even Xia Manni and others in the cave were greatly affected.
The few people who had originally planned to go out and relax suddenly felt hit hard.
Note: In a confined environment, even the warmest one will feel a little boring.
But in this deep mountain, there is only the mountain stronghold besides this place.
Xia Manni thought about the location of the stronghold and denied it herself.
There should be quite a few people fleeing famine there. They are carrying all sorts of things with them, which not only attracts attention but is also not necessarily safer than staying in a cave.
She just hoped that this heavy rain would be as sensible as the little fish last time.
It stopped on its own in the next month and a half.
That day Xia Manni decided to keep everyone busy.
"I'll teach you how to read and write in the morning, and your Uncle Dayong will teach you martial arts in the afternoon. In the evening, we'll tell stories or show off our talents, okay?"
Big Baby: "No problem."
Big Brother was the happiest. The books that Sinier brought from the village were a little too profound for him, so it was a good opportunity for him to learn from his mother.
Erwa: "That's great! I can finally learn Uncle Dayong's martial arts."
Erwa has not been successful in becoming a disciple these days, so how could he not be happy to have such an opportunity?
Sanwa didn't care. His mother brought an abacus from the village and would practice with it from time to time.
But it's better to learn more than to sit around and listen to the rain.
Si Ni'er was also very happy because the medical book was so profound.
She can't understand it for the time being, so it would be good to know more words.
Overall, only Wu Dayong was a little unhappy.
Erwa: "Uncle Dayong, why do you look unhappy?"
Wu Dayong had a lot of troubles. When he was following his master, the thing that troubled him most was learning to read and write.
But when he looked at the young children, none of them showed any rejection, and he felt a little embarrassed to say it.
Big Baby: "Second Baby, how do you know Uncle Dayong is unhappy? Uncle Dayong is obviously very happy. After all, Uncle Dayong is the leader of the Qianren League. How could he not understand everything?"
Wu Dayong's mouth twitched.
Could he reasonably suspect that Da Wa did it on purpose?
Xia Manni also thought that Da Wa did it on purpose, but she didn't say anything. After all, Da Wa was becoming more and more adept at saying this kind of thing.
In order to avoid being burned by the nameless fire, she chose to cheer for Da Wa.
Xia Manni: "Dawa is right."
Wu Dayong:...
Until one day, Xia Manni suddenly had an idea to give everyone a test.
The precious paper and pen for the exam were obtained from a remote village.
For this exam, Xia Manni asked them to mark each other's papers.
The content of the exam was also very simple. Everyone was just asked to write down the new words they had learned in the past few days.
The method of grading each other's papers was proposed by the eldest child.
When Da Wa saw that Wu Dayong was collecting the papers, he kept stopping them.
Big Baby: "Mom, let's look at each other."
When they were at the Xia family before, Xia Manni told them how to mark the papers more easily.
So they all knew which numbers to hit right and which to hit wrong.
Da Wa: "Uncle Dayong, I'll look at yours, you look at mine."
Out of consideration for his man's face, Wu Dayong had to give the test paper to Dawa.
Dawa got Wu Dayong's paper.
I thought it would be bad, but I didn’t expect that I wouldn’t write a single one.
Da Wa: "Haha, Uncle Dayong, are you drawing talismans?"
Wu Dayong:...
As a result, when practicing martial arts, Wu Dayong was also the most demanding towards Dawa.
It’s so strict that the second child doesn’t dare to get close to the eldest child.
Every day when practicing martial arts, I have to pull the oil cloth up a little bit so that I won’t feel so bored.
As a result, except for the eldest child, everyone else stood next to the oilcloth at the entrance of the hole.
Because that would keep me away from Uncle Dayong.
Another person who performed poorly in martial arts training was Si Ni'er.
But Wu Dayong's attitude towards Si Ni'er and Dawa is indeed completely different.
"Don't worry, Si Ni'er. If you're tired, go play with the herbs."
"Big boy, stand up straight!"
Every day, Da Wa and Wu Dayong compete with each other in wits and courage, and the two of them also bring some fun and vitality to everyone's boring life.
Apart from their daily activities, what they look forward to most is eating.
There was some meat with every meal, just not much.
There will also be soups and stir-fried dishes.
Originally, everyone took turns to cook this meal, but in the end, it became Wu Dayong's world.
But the rain outside never stopped, and it was still raining on New Year's Eve.
On New Year’s Eve last year, Shizai Village was still covered in snow.
The temperature here did not reach the target, and it rained heavily for three consecutive months.
On New Year's Eve, Wu Dayong and Xia Manni tried their best to prepare surprises for their four children, but the supplies in the cave were limited, so the New Year passed like this.
But there were still problems with the cave.
It was the sixth day of the first lunar month, and a faint roaring sound could be heard from a nearby mountain.
Xia Manni: "What's that sound?"
Wu Dayong seemed to have thought of something. He put on his straw raincoat and ran outside, and Xia Manni followed him out.
I saw a mudslide occurring in the mountains not far away.
More than half of the mountain had collapsed, and a lot of rainwater mixed with soil rolled down.
