Su Qingyun was also awakened by a loud thunder. She lifted the thin quilt and found her body was covered with sweat and was sticky. She wiped herself, changed her clothes, and walked out of the house.
The moment she stepped out of the door, raindrops as big as beans began to fall. Almost in the blink of an eye, the rain became louder and louder, like a river in the sky surging down and a downpour pouring down.
It was raining so hard that the whole family stood in the rain. The raindrops hit their bodies recklessly, causing a slight pain. However, no one moved at all. Everyone stretched out their hands with joy, almost reverently welcoming this belated summer rain.
Not only the Su family, Su Qingyun heard the surprised shouts from every household in Luoshui Village.
"It's raining! It's raining!"
“It’s raining so hard!”
"The crops in the fields are saved!"
Everyone was shouting, dancing, and laughing in the rain! The rain seemed to be responding to this ecstasy, falling more and more fiercely. The sound of rain and cheers merged into a carnival between heaven and earth.
Su Qingyun stood under the eaves, looking at her cheering family. She could smell the scent of earth rising from the rain hitting the ground. Her gaze drifted into the distance. In the fields over there were the crops that everyone had been worried about for many days. At this moment, every piece of soil must have absorbed the rain, and every leaf was perked up.
This rain came late, arriving when everyone was extremely anxious, but it seemed to come at the right time, like a downpour after a long drought, everything was just right. In a few hours, at dawn, she would go to a distant place again. This rain seemed to be bidding farewell to her. I hope that her journey will be the best arrangement, just like this rain.
"Grandma, it's almost done. Come in quickly to avoid catching a cold." Su Qingyun shouted loudly.
The family finally calmed down a bit. Wu Guixiang saw that everyone was soaked and told Zhang Xinlan, "Second wife, go boil some hot water so everyone can wipe themselves before going to bed. Don't let the crops in the field fail again."
"Okay, I'll go right away." Zhang Xinlan was about to go to the kitchen.
"Wait a minute," Wu Guixiang called her again, "Change your clothes first and then go boil some water."
Zhang Xinlan was stunned. "Okay."
She turned around with a smile on her lips. She was not a fool, so she naturally heard the concern in Wu Guixiang's words.
Because of the heavy rain, the family went to bed later than usual. Su Qingyun and his family of three discussed in the room whether there was anything they had forgotten to bring with them to the capital tomorrow.
The last time Qin Ying and her friends encountered kidnappers, Su Aimin was really scared, so this time Su Aimin decided to go along with them. He used a similar method to get a letter of introduction and did not encounter any obstacles.
At that time, Su Qingyun would be undergoing closed-door training in the mathematics talent group, and the couple would stay in the guesthouse and travel around.
Su Qingyun was eating a bowl of rice. Su Aimin thought for a moment and discussed with Qin Ying, "Why don't we bring more money with us to the capital this time?"
"What are you trying to do?" Qin Ying saw through his thoughts immediately. "Ai Min, let me tell you, the capital is no different from other places. The inspections are very strict. We can't take risks just to earn a little money. Besides, if something happens to us, wouldn't it hold Yunyun back? What if it delays her competition?"
Su Aimin was stunned, and then a feeling of fear came over him. Why hadn't he thought of this? Whether he made money or not was not a big deal. If he implicated Yunyun because of what he did, then he would be guilty of a great sin.
"Forget it then." Su Aimin decisively dismissed the idea. He was obsessed with making money and ignored the risks.
"That's right." Qin Ying nodded with satisfaction, and the two talked about other things.
Su Qingyun had been eating without saying a word. In her heart, she actually did not support her father going to the capital to think about business. The reason why he was able to make money so easily before was because they were in a small place and the inspection was not strict. But the capital was different. It was under the imperial city and the capital of a country. There were countless patrol posts everywhere. The risk was too great. There was no need to take such a big risk just to make money.
"Have you finished eating?" Qin Ying asked when she saw her daughter's bowl was empty. "Do you want more? There's more in the pot."
"I'm not eating anymore." Su Qingyun shook his head. He was not feeling well today and his appetite was not very good.
"Okay, then go wash your face and go to bed quickly. We have to set off early tomorrow morning." Qin Ying urged her.
"Okay." Su Qingyun obediently left his parents' room.
The couple chatted quietly for a while and then went to bed.
Early the next morning, before the family got up, Wu Guixiang got up early and made breakfast for them herself. She kneaded the dough, rolled out the dumpling wrappers, chopped the meat filling, mixed it with sauerkraut, and made dumplings with sauerkraut and pork filling.
When Su Aimin woke up, he saw a large bowl of plump white dumplings. He was a little sleepy at first, but he woke up immediately. "Mom, why do you want to eat so much so early in the morning? Why don't you cook it yourself?"
What kind of treatment was it to have his mother get up early in the morning to cook for him? He was a little flattered.
"Aren't you guys going out now? Dumplings on the bus and noodles on the bus. You definitely need to eat dumplings before you leave." Wu Guixiang glanced at him, "Don't overthink it. This is mainly cooked for Yunyun. The rest of you are just enjoying it as a side dish. You can only eat these dumplings because of Yunyun."
Su Aimin: “…” It’s too early to be shocked.
Su Qingyun, who had just left the room, was so moved when she heard this that she hugged Wu Guixiang and said, "Grandma, you are so kind."
"Okay, eat quickly." Wu Guixiang smiled with wrinkles on her face, and patted Su Qingyun reluctantly, "I don't know how many days it will take for you to come back after you leave this time, and you have to go abroad, which is so far." The capital was beyond her imagination, let alone going abroad.
