Chapter 295 It’s raining!



After Wu Tongtong's guidance, Xiao Lingling finally became more open-minded.

I had a good meal in the evening and had a rare good night's sleep.

However, in the middle of the night, the wind suddenly started to blow hard outside, and in the blink of an eye, the sound of raindrops hitting the window could be heard.

There was a crackling sound, as if the window paper was about to be broken at the next moment.

Wu Tongtong was a light sleeper and was awakened by the thunder. She was stunned for a moment, but quickly reacted.

She excitedly went to the window and opened it a crack.

A cool breeze blew in, and I instantly felt much more awake.

"Ah! It's raining! It's raining heavily! That's great! Is the drought finally going to end?"

Wu Tongtong's voice was so loud that Xiao Lingling sat up in a daze.

"Sister Tong, what's wrong?"

"Little Bell, it's raining! And it's raining heavily, listen!"

The little bell stopped moving, and in an instant the only sound in her ears was the sound of rain.

"Yeah, really!"

Xiao Lingling pinched her fingers a few times and understood.

It seems that the emperor has begun to overturn the verdict on General Chu, and it should be starting to have an effect.

Perhaps it was because the emperor acted quickly enough that the drought, which was originally expected to last until winter, ended early?

However, it was a good thing after all, so Xiao Lingdang did not go into the details of what happened in the capital.

Not only the two of them were excited, but even the Lin family members who had already gone to bed and even the villagers of Shuanghe Village were excited. Many people excitedly stood out in the rain.

Although the drought in Shuanghe Village has not been serious, due to the gathering of refugees, they have not been happy for a long time.

They were also worried that they would not be able to farm in the second half of this year, but now that it has rained, they feel much more at ease.

This carnival continued until noon the next day.

Because of the heavy rain, the family did not go out. They all sat under the eaves, eating fruit and chatting. The atmosphere was relaxed and leisurely.

"Oh, it's been a long time since I've seen such a refreshing rain. It's been raining for most of the day and it's still so strong.

I think we might be able to continue for another afternoon."

"If you can, please let it rain for a while longer. The drought lasted so long that the ground in the north is all dry and cracked. If you don't rain enough, the ground won't get wet through."

"That's true. A day of rain like this can quench the thirst of those fields. Otherwise, it would be difficult to replant them."

"Who says it isn't? And the rivers and wells are also swollen."

Mrs. Sun was also chatting here with her little grandson in her arms. When she talked about the river, she immediately became lively.

"Oh, now that you mention it, I remember! There are two rivers in our Shuanghe Village. If the rain continues for too long, won't they flood?"

Zhao rolled her eyes at her. "Just talk nicely! Why are you always talking nonsense? When we built this house, they already raised and reinforced the riverbank. Don't worry, it's fine!"

"Oh, I'm worried, but it shouldn't be a problem. Although the river in our village didn't stop flowing before, the water level has dropped significantly. I think it will recover this time."

Little Lingling was not worried at all. She was happily eating a peach in her hand.

She had already calculated that the rain would stop at night and everything would be fine.

Pei Huan coveted the little baby, but when he saw Zhao had been holding him for a while, he stretched out his hand somewhat embarrassedly.

"Auntie, can I hold him too? I haven't held a child in a long time, and he looks pretty well-behaved."

Zhao hesitated for a moment. Although her own child was washed clean every day, she was the queen after all, and Lin An was only a few months old. She was worried that it would be embarrassing if he soiled the queen's clothes.

However, she could see that the queen was sincere, so she only hesitated for a moment.

"Okay, let me hold you while I pee, and then I'll come back and hold you."

Pei Huan nodded quickly, following Zhao's movements with eager eyes. When the child was carefully placed in her arms, his heart seemed to be filled instantly.

Lin An is now more than seven months old. She is very fair and has big eyes that look straight at you. Even if you don’t know her, she won’t cry or make a fuss. She is as well-behaved as a little girl.

When Pei Huan looked at him, he couldn't help but think of his son's childhood appearance, and his eyes became red.

"Oh my, this child is so cute, and he's not shy at all. He doesn't even cry when I hold him. He's so easy to take care of!"

When Sun heard her grandson being praised, she immediately became proud. "That's true. I'm not exaggerating. My little grandson is really easy to take care of. Apart from crying when he's hungry or wet, you never hear him cry at all."

Besides, as long as there is someone he knows watching, he is not afraid of anyone hugging him and is very brave. "

Xiao Lingling held the peach and came close to Lin An. "Smell it. Does it smell good? Come, sister will feed you. But you don't have teeth yet, so just smack the flavor."

Lin An was very sensible. As soon as Xiao Lingling put the peach near his mouth, the little guy opened his mouth immediately.

He licked it with his pink little tongue, obviously savoring the sweetness, and his eyes were filled with a hint of eagerness.

He opened and closed his mouth for a long time, but unfortunately he couldn't take a single bite, which made the child very angry.

Zhao quickly hugged Xiao Lingling and said, "You little girl, your brother can't eat it, but you deliberately make him greedy. How can you be so naughty?"

Little Bell laughed and said, "It's okay, you can just try it. This peach is delicious."

This is a peach from the space. It is really sweet. Children can eat it and it is good for their health. It’s a pity that he can’t bite it now.

Sun smiled and said, "It's okay. This child is the most fun at this time. There's nothing to tease him about now."

Then Song Jie started talking about the interesting things that happened in the town recently.

"By the way, speaking of which, the children have been busy in town lately. They spend the mornings studying with Qiuyue, but they've also been busy in the afternoons.

Come on, come on, tell me about your recent gains."

As soon as Song Jie finished speaking, Lin Ran was the first to rush over, with a look of pride and excitement on his face.

"Ahem, then I'll go first! We've been staying in town for fifteen days and have earned a total of twelve taels of silver. If we divide it equally, that's a little over one tael per person.

But we don't plan to spend it ourselves. We've already agreed to use the money as capital. We also want to start a small business."

Zhao was a little surprised. "Oh, twelve taels? That's quite a lot!"

"It's not that great. Before, my old man couldn't even earn one or two taels of silver a month. You kids are really amazing. Otherwise, why do you say that studying is good?

So what kind of business do you want to start? Tell me about it!"
