"Ouch! Why is it raining so hard all of a sudden?"
Mr. Si picked up the bucket of water, wiped the rain off his body and quickly ran into the entrance.
"Grandpa Si."
When Song Chi heard the sound, he quickly got up and ran to the entrance.
Song Chen also followed.
"Grandpa Si, please go back to your room and take a hot bath. Don't catch a cold."
Song Chi urged, taking the bucket from Mr. Si.
Silent Song Chen took the fishing rod from Mr. Si and subconsciously looked outside the villa gate.
Song Chi also looked out.
What came into view was the heavy rain and the sea of roses in the courtyard, and there was no sign of those old men at all.
"Grandpa Si, where is the uncle you were fishing with?"
Song Chi looked back from outside and asked Mr. Si.
Mr. Si, who was still patting his clothes, replied, "As soon as the shield's warning sounded, they received a notice from the base and went back to collect."
"Ah? The old men are so old, and they also go to collect?"
"They are all veterans and are in good health."
"Oh, your hair is wet. Grandpa is going to take a bath first. You and Xiaochen continue to sit here. If you are bored, watch TV."
"good."
Song Chi watched Mr. Si walk up to the first floor.
"Hey wait, why are you two kids the only ones here? Where are your uncle and uncle-in-law?"
Mr. Si finally reacted when he reached the corridor on the first floor and turned around to ask Song Chi.
"I don't know! Maybe he's sleeping upstairs! I called out several times, but I didn't see my uncle and the others come downstairs."
When Mr. Si heard this, he was completely confused and thought to himself: This child is really naive.
In fact, Song Chi did have doubts about whether Pei Yan and Lu Yan were doing something.
It was really because Pei Yan was usually too steady. He thought that it was daytime now and Pei Yan was not Gu Chen. He should just be accompanying their uncle to take an afternoon nap. How could he possibly do anything? So he didn't think about it that way.
If it were usual, Pei Yan would not bother Lu Yan at this time, but would cook downstairs.
But how could Pei Yan remain calm when Lu Yan took action himself?
Mr. Si has a clear mind.
His grandson! He has been playing with Pei Yan recently. Now he is not on the first floor, so he must be playing again, so he coughed and lied to Song Chi, "Your uncle usually has the habit of taking a nap in the afternoon. He should be getting up soon. You two can play by yourselves first. Grandpa will go take a shower first."
"Okay, Grandpa Si, be careful not to slip!"
"Grandpa is not a child anymore, he will pay attention."
Mr. Si turned and went into the first floor, slowly walking away.
Song Chi and Song Chen, one carrying a bucket and the other holding a fishing rod, walked towards the kitchen.
Song Chi placed the bucket containing the two fish in the corner of the kitchen, while Song Chen opened the back door of the kitchen and placed the fishing rod outside the balcony.
"Wow! This sea of flowers is even more beautiful after the rain."
Song Chi went out to the balcony at the back door, feeling the rain and wind, and looked at the endless sea of roses in the rain, and couldn't help but sigh.
The white rain and the red sea of flowers are really beautiful.
Song Chen, who didn't like to see beautiful scenery, stopped and stayed.
He tilted his hair up to face the wind, reached out his hand to touch the rain outside, and let the rain fall on his fingertips.
The rain was so heavy that it hit my fingers, causing them to tremble slightly.
"Well, fourth brother, those kids, are they going out?"
Song Chi put his hand on his forehead and squinted his eyes to look into the woods shrouded in heavy rain.
Song Chen withdrew his hand that was playing with the rain and glanced in the direction Song Chi was looking.
There were indeed a few taller children wearing raincoats standing outside the cabin, seemingly explaining something to the children inside. After a while, they walked down the steps of the cabin and ran towards the main road outside the woods.
Song Chi, "They weren't called to collect as well, were they?"
Song Chen looked towards the cabin without saying anything, but he also had the same guess as Song Chi.
After all, collection is important now, and as long as there is labor, everyone will be called up.
Standing at the door of the cabin, the older girl, holding the baby and rocking him, looked worriedly at the older boys as they ran away, her eyes growing even more worried.
The last time we went to collect, the older boy injured his arm while saving a child, and the wound has just healed.
She just didn't want the older boys to go collecting because she was worried about them taking risks.
Now they all have panels opened and can buy food through shopping apps, so there is no need to work so hard.
But the older boy refused, saying that they had to earn more points now so that they could feed the children they adopted this winter.
The older girl was helpless and felt that what the older boy said made sense, so she could only watch the older boy take the other older children away.
"Sister, will the big brothers come back?"
A five or six-year-old girl who had just joined the team looked up at the older girl and asked with tears in her eyes.
"Yes, as soon as the rain stops, they will come back."
The older girl holding the baby patted the girl's head to comfort her.
They picked up the girl on the main street in the city next to theirs.
When she was found, she was so hungry that she was only breathing her last breath, lying weakly in a broken car.
She said that her family asked her to wait there and they would bring food back soon.
But after waiting day after day and seeing no one coming back to look for her, she realized that she had been abandoned.
"Big Brother and the others are good people, they will be fine, don't worry, sister."
The girl hugged the older girl's waist and cried to comfort her.
I don’t know whether I am comforting myself or the older girl.
Maybe both.
Because she had finally found a place to live and someone was willing to take her in, she didn't want anything to happen to anyone.
