Chapter 35: Premonition

May and June in Jiangnan is the rainy season, and it rains non-stop every day, not much rain, but just enough to wet the clothes on the body.

During this time, Du Juan and Du Shilan went to the mountains to pick some fresh mulberry leaves in the rain every morning, and waited carefully for those silkworm babies.

Mulberry leaves that are wet with rain need to be dried in each piece, and when feeding the silkworm babies, you can't let the mulberry leaves stain a drop of water, otherwise it will make the silkworm babies diarrhea, and some of them will even die.

"Lan Lan, did the second brother come back just now?" Du Juan used a dry cloth towel to carefully absorb the rainwater on the mulberry leaves piece by piece, and then spread it out in a bamboo sieve on the side.

"Seems to be." Du Shilan tilted her head, "I think he seems to have entered his father's house, young lady, do you have something to do with your second brother?" ā€

"No, I just stood at the window, as if I saw the second brother passing by in a flash, and I wanted to confirm it." Du Juan lowered her eyebrows and continued the work in her hands, she felt uncomfortable when she got up early today, she couldn't tell what it felt, it was as if something was going to happen.

It has been raining for the past few days, and the brigade has not asked the members to go to work, so they are all at home to find work by themselves.

The Du family is the same, except for Sang Xiaohong, who is going to primary school, early in the morning, Du Shichang needs to check the canal when he goes out. She was afraid that Du Shichang would have an accident, but after Du Shilan's confirmation, it shouldn't be, could it be the second sister-in-law Sang Xiaohong?

"Hey, this ghost weather, where are my father and second brother going?" Du Shilan stood in front of the window and said in surprise.

When Du Juan heard this, she hurriedly put down the work in her hand and stood at the window to look out. Du Dewang and Sang Chunhua followed behind Du Shichang, Du Shichang was still carrying a bamboo basket in his hand, and he didn't know what was in the basket, the three of them didn't say a word, just held an umbrella and walked quickly towards the outside of the courtyard.

"Something must have happened, I haven't seen the second brother so strict on his face again." Du Shilan said softly.

Du Juan didn't reply, but her eyebrows tightened, and she intuitively felt that something was going to happen, and it was likely to be related to her. But she's only been here for a short time, so she can't guess.

"Let's work, if I can say, my uncle and aunt will come back in a while, and they will sue us." Du Juan comforted Du Shilan like this, and comforted herself. The soldiers are coming, the water is flooding, she is not even afraid of death, so what else can be frightened.

"I don't know when it will clear up this day, I haven't seen the sun for almost half a month, right?" Du Shilan looked at the dense rain curtain outside the house, and touched the clothes that always felt a little damp on her body, which was really uncomfortable, although she experienced such a rainy season every year, she was still not used to it.

"In less than three days, it will definitely be sunny." Du Juan said affirmatively.

"Poof, young lady, when will you still have the ability to forecast the weather? Hehe......" Du Shilan was amused by Du Juan's serious appearance.

"Believe it or not, hum!" Du Juan turned her head and ignored the people and continued the work at hand. Just check the weather, which is really not worth mentioning for her Jindan period.

"Okay, okay, I believe you can't do it? Now, don't be angry, let's go bake sweet potatoes and eat them later, shall we? ā€

"You want to eat it yourself, right? Pull me every time, and you're not afraid of eating too much and farting to death yourself. ā€

"Oh, young lady, what are you doing so bluntly, it's really embarrassing."

The two little sisters played around and sorted out the food of the silkworm babies, and really found a few moderate sweet potatoes from the warehouse and roasted them in the kitchen.

For a whole afternoon, Du Juan didn't see Du Dewang and them come back. Even the brothers and sisters Du Shilan and Du Shikang, who stayed at home to take care of the children, felt strange, what happened to their father and second brother, they didn't even come back for lunch, what was the delay in this?

Several children were worried at home, and Du Dewang, who was returning home in the rain, was also struggling with how to talk to Du Juan about Miao Dongqing.

"Let's tell you the truth, after all, it's Xiaojuan's uncle." Dudwangti yƬ said.

"And who he is?" Sang Chunhua also wanted to recognize Miao Dongqing immediately, but she was worried about the identity of the other party, after all, the Du family was not just one person, it was more than a dozen people. If some radicals find a breakthrough, will they have to serve her family in one pot? For example, the Hong family, if the family hears something about it, nothing can happen to her, so she can't think about it too much!

"Mother, you can't recognize each other openly, we can do it secretly!" Du Shichang said, "Xiaohong is in the village primary school, so it should be no problem for her to bring something every day." Sometimes Xiaojuan can also use an excuse to go to her second sister-in-law, isn't it possible to meet each other? ā€

"What you said is a solution, but you can't just be secretly modeled all the time, right?" Sang Chunhua was still a little uneasy and said, "It's okay to do it twice this time, but after a long time, it is inevitable that it will not be seen by people with a heart." When the names of the two are contacted again, we can't tell how many mouths we have at that time! ā€

"Mother, in fact, have you noticed that the above policies seem to be slowly changing."

"Huh?"

"Silkworm, silk!"

"Oh! You said that it is estimated that the policy will become more and more loose in the future, maybe this movement will pass? ā€

"It should be, it's only a matter of time, so let's be careful."

was persuaded by Du Shichang, but the old couple didn't bother with Miao Dongqing's identity.

people, they will definitely not take them home, so at most they will improve each other's food and clothing.

It's just that if you improve your food and clothing, it shouldn't be easy for other members to find out, and when you think about it, the hearts of the two are more determined, and even the pace of going home is a lot brisker.

When it was dark, Du Dewang and the others came home, Du Juan and Du Shilan had already made dinner, so it could be said that they were waiting for the three of them to come back, and they could start the meal.

"Mother, where have you all been this afternoon, why haven't you come back now?" Du Shilan looked concerned.

"I've seen an old man, and I'll talk about it after eating later." Sang Chunhua replied truthfully.

"The deceased?" Everyone is very curious, except for the uncle who stayed outside for a period of time when he was young, the others have only been to the city at the farthest, and this is only in the past few months, where did their family come from?

"Eat first." Seeing that the children were all looking at them with curious eyes, Du Dewang immediately frowned and said sharply.

"Yes."

After eating silently, several women quickly cleaned up the table, and drove a few small people in the house to the back room, threw some toys, let the big ones play with the small ones, and told them not to come out to make trouble, and then gathered around the dining table and waited for Du Dewang and them to solve their doubts.
