"Fortunately, the Bodhisattva blesses, the water in the treasury did not flood the grain!"

As soon as Li Liang's grandfather got home, he hurriedly went to the warehouse to carefully check the water ingress.

"Just now I was sheltering from the rain at the Bolt's house, and there was a lot of water in the room where the rice was stored at the Bolt's house. I have two people, I and the bolt have moved all the rice from his family to his bed, and he can sleep on his own!" said Li Liang's grandfather.

"Grandpa, look at this rain, will it continue to rain tomorrow?" asked Li Liang.

"Who can say this?" Li Chengxi sighed, "Our village is low, if we continue like this, the millet in the family will have to be put back in the room." ”

The overall terrain of Li Liang's grandfather's village is relatively high, which is a good thing for a normal year, because as long as it rains a little, the ground can be well maintained in a state of water due to the low terrain. Crops don't need to boil water, and they can grow well.

In the event of a short-term downpour like today's, the water in the village will not be discharged as fast as the rainwater will collect, so it is easy to cause waterlogging.

The name of Yuxi Village is also named after this, I heard the old people say that the name of the village was 'Yuxi Village' in the past, and the old people felt that there was a lot of rain in the village, so they changed the name to 'Yuxi Village', hoping that the rain would not be so much.

At dinner time, even though the rain was still falling, people still had to eat. Li Liang's grandmother and aunt went to prepare the dishes for the evening. There are many guests at noon, and there are many dishes to prepare. Now that the weather is hot, the unfinished dishes cannot be left overnight with a maximum of one meal. Overnight meals are basically spoiled.

Grandma and Aunt picked out a few good dishes from the leftover vegetables at noon, and when it was hot, the family hastily filled their stomachs with leftovers at night.

"Grandpa, why haven't my father and uncle come back yet?" asked Li Yin holding the bowl.

Because the tables and benches in the hall had been moved to the storehouse by Li Liang and his aunt to hold the rice, the family would eat at a very small table in the kitchen in the evening.

"Maybe it's raining too much, your father and uncle will stay in the township government, don't worry about Yinyin, there is a place to live in the township!" Li Chengxi comforted his little granddaughter.

"Yinyin, eat quickly, when the rain is a little lighter, your father will come back naturally!" Aunt Meng Qingxiu also said.

"Oh!"

Li Hao is older, so he is not worried about his father, on the contrary, he is still very envious of his father and uncle who have not come back.

"Sister, what are you worried about, Dad and Uncle they have a car to sit in, the car is too comfortable to sit on, you haven't sat before!" Li Hao said enviously.

When they followed their grandfather and uncle's family to Yangcheng and Pengcheng to play some time ago, they took several kinds of cars, including buses and Mr. Yang's white bullet.

Yin Yin listened to his brother's words and envied his father.

"It's so cool in that car! I still want to sit!" Li Yin suddenly remembered that Mr. Yang's car was so good.

"Oh, there are mosquitoes!" Li Liang suddenly slapped his calf, raised his hand, and there was a blood stain on his palm, and there was a corpse of a large-flowered mosquito lying on it.

Li Liang has been the most provoked mosquito since he was a child, and in the same room, as long as there is a mosquito in the room, then no matter how many people are in the room, Li Liang must be the first to be bitten.

"Haohao, go to grandma's room and get a wormwood strip for your brother!" said grandma.

"Oh!" Li Hao replied.

In rural areas, wormwood is commonly used to repel mosquitoes. This is a very simple and effective mosquito repellent method, the common wormwood in the field is picked back and dried, rolled into long strips, and after lighting this wormwood strip, the smoke emitted by wormwood smells as far as the mosquitoes run far. Li Liang's grandmother knew about the eldest grandson's physique, and would prepare a lot of this wormwood strip at home every year, and would let Li Liang take it home.

There are many mosquitoes in the countryside, especially because of the low terrain of Yuxi Village, the water source for mosquitoes to breed is abundant, and the mosquitoes in the village are big and poisonous, and many of them are of that kind of big pattern. If you accidentally get bitten, it will swell up with a large red patch, which is painful and itchy.

Li Hao quickly took two strips of wormwood that his grandmother had kneaded and ignited them with the embers in the stove, and the burning wormwood emitted a pungent smell. The smell was pungent, but the effect was obvious, and after a while, the mosquitoes that had been haunting the kitchen fled one after another.

"Liangzi, hurry up and eat, after eating and taking a bath, go to Haohao's bed and lie down, grandma has hung up the mosquito net!" Li Liang's grandmother said.

"Okay!"

Rural people take a bath more casually, unlike people in the city who have to prepare this and that. In the summer, when the weather is good, the men and children often rush to the village stream and pond with a pair of shorts and a towel, and a bar of soap. Take a few laps in the water and not only wash your body, but also cool down.

The women were not so bold, they had to hide at home and take a bath.

Most people prepare a large vat in their yard in the summer and fill it with water early in the morning. After a hot day, the women would fetch water from the tank after a day's work on the farm, and the water in the tank would be hot enough to bathe.

It was still raining, and it was naturally not suitable to go out to take a bath today, so after eating, Li Liang and Li Hao took two wooden buckets, pulled out a bucket of water from the water tank, and carried them to the bath room that their uncle built in the corner of the yard.

This was built by the second uncle Li Shuangqi at the strong request of Li Meng when he was a child, at that time, the average family took a bath in the kitchen after eating at night, and rarely had their own toilets and bathing rooms.

Li Meng has loved cleanliness since he was a child, and Li Liang's father Li Shuangzhu built a special bath room in the courtyard of his home. When Li Meng was a child, he was eccentric, and when he saw his father at home, he built a bathing room, and when he went back to the countryside to play, he had to ask his second uncle to build one in the yard of his hometown.

Li Shuangqi was unable to grind this niece, he was busy during the day, and he had to work in the village every day, so he used the evening time to pick up some stones of suitable size from the back mountains and other fields, picked them home, and built this bathing room.

After this bathhouse was built, it was ridiculed by the villagers for a long time. They all think that rural people are so precious, and the girl is so small, even if they wash in the yard, it is nothing, and even if they take a bath in the kitchen, they are acceptable, after all, every family comes over like this.

However, since the women of the village have seen the benefits of special bathing rooms in the Li family, the gossip in the village has gradually decreased, and quietly, more and more families have built bathing rooms at home.
