At night, there was a loud rumbling bang, and lightning and thunder outside. The sound of crackling raindrops crashing on the eaves.

The rain that hadn't fallen in nearly five months finally fell tonight. I was worried about what would happen if the winter wheat planted would not germinate without watering, but I didn't have to worry about it.

It had been a dripping night, and the dawn had not stopped.

Su Chenrui suddenly called out loudly, "Ah, eldest sister." Our house is leaking rain. ”

Su Rui is looking for thick clothes for Wan'er, and it is getting cooler and cooler day by day after autumn. The little one has a bit of a runny nose in the morning...

"That leaks?"

"Here"

Su Rui saw that Su Chenrui was sleeping in the upper room, dripping water "tick, tick".

"Hurry up and get rid of the wet quilt"

"Second sister, take a porcelain basin and come in to catch the rain." Su Rui just finished explaining to her second sister.

Su Qiao's voice also came, "Sister, the stove room is also leaking."

"You also take a porcelain basin to get water."

"Eldest sister, the hall is also missing"

"Ahhh Su Rui screamed in her heart.

"Chen Rui, do you want to sleep in the side room tonight?"

"Eldest sister, can I sleep by myself next year?" Su Chenrui looked at Su Rui cautiously.

Su Rui sighed silently. "Okay, then you're going to sleep with Qiao'er tonight."

In the morning, I was busy collecting water everywhere, and I saw that there were all kinds of pots and bowls in the corners of the house.

Su Rui told her younger siblings, "This won't work, our family has to repair the house." Even if you don't have time to build a new house, you have to fix the roof. If it rains, it will leak, so why not collapse the roof when it snows heavily in winter? ”

"Eldest sister, you can decide everything. No need to tell us. Su Ying hugged Su Chennan, who wanted to go out to play.

Su Rui looked at her younger siblings seriously and said seriously. "We are a family, one is prosperous and the other is lost. Everything should be discussed, and nothing should be done. If you have any ideas, you can also tell the eldest sister, understand? ”

The siblings glanced at each other and replied loudly, "Understood." ”

After breakfast, Su Rui took out the muslin cloth at home and brought out a stone blue cloth.

"Second sister, some time ago, Aunt Lin made us quilts and younger brother's clothes. You have been watching, now that there is no farm work, do you want to learn needlework with Aunt Hua? ”

Su Ying was pleasantly surprised, "Sister, I want to learn." ”

"Then you pull out the fabric that your eldest brother is wearing. The eldest sister will take you to Aunt Hua and let her teach you. ”

"Hmm" Su Ying asked Aunt Lin at the time, how tall a person pulls how much cloth, six feet is enough for an adult to make a dress, and Su Chenrui is still small and can wear a six-foot cloth.

Su Chenrui and Su Qiao took their younger siblings to watch the house, while Su Rui and Su Ying walked to Aunt Hua's house with an oil umbrella.

The door was not closed, Su Rui walked in directly and saw Aunt Hua teaching Su Qin to do needlework.

"Aunt Hua, what a coincidence, I just wanted to ask you to teach Sister Qin how to needle and thread by the way."

"What's wrong with this, there's nothing to do after the autumn harvest, you just let Ying'er come over. It just happened to be with Qin'er. Aunt Hua reached out and took Su Ying's hand and observed it carefully.

"This hand is double-skillful, like your mother."

"Qin'er, what are you doing here?" Su Rui saw that Su Ying's eyes were about to turn red again, and quickly diverted the topic.

"A coat made for Chenhui."

Su Rui looked left and right, "It's raining, Chenhui is not there?" ”

Su Qin said helplessly, "He went to his grandmother's house before the autumn harvest, and my father went to pick him up last night, and he was reluctant to come back." ”

Su Rui smiled, "Boy, it's normal to be naughty, but Qin'er, you're awesome, how long have you been learning." The clothes will be sewn. ”

Aunt Hua interjected, "She's most like her grandmother." Attentiveness, as well as stamina. Unlike me, I couldn't sit still since I was a child. ”

"Aunt Hua, don't be modest, how many needles and threads in our village are better than yours?"

Su Rui took a look, Su Changle was not at home, "By the way, what about Uncle Changle?" ”

"He went to the village, I guess he went to talk to someone."

"Tell me something directly." Aunt Hua stopped the needlework in her hand.

"That's okay, it rained heavily last night, and my house is now leaking rain everywhere like a water curtain hole. I want to ask Uncle Chang Le to help invite some people, and the rain stopped to help fix the roof. ”

Aunt Hua thought for a while, "It's easy to find someone, but I don't know if you plan to pay for it?" Or please eat? ”

Su Rui tilted her head and asked, "What's the difference?" ”

"If it's for dinner, then it's good to ask relatives for help, and if it's for paying, find someone with a foreign surname." Aunt Hua explained while instructing Su Ying on how to tailor.

As he was talking, Su Changle came back.

Su Rui hurriedly stood up and said hello, "Uncle Changle"

"Well, it rained heavily last night, and many houses leaked badly, and even two families had their roofs collapsed in the middle of the night." Su Changle sat down and said slowly.

"By the way, is the roof of your house okay?"

Su Rui immediately smiled.

"Boss, Rui girl came today to find you for the roof. So... That's it..."Aunt Hua explained the speed again.

Su Changle Su took a moment of examination, and Fang said slowly. "Rui girl, I suggest asking the clan to help repair it. Originally, your father and mother were gone, and you didn't move around much with your grandmother and uncle. If you are not close to your clansmen, you will really be isolated in the future. Your sisters are fine, you're going to get married anyway, but you have to think about your two younger brothers. ”

Su Changle is reasonable, no matter what happens in the future. At least in the next few years, Su Rui does not plan to leave Sujia Village, if there is no protection from the clan, she will be bullied by the ruffians and hooligans in other villages.

"Uncle Chang Le is right, then trouble Uncle Chang Le to find some clansmen to help repair it."

"It is estimated that before the Mid-Autumn Festival, it will not be able to catch up. After the Mid-Autumn Festival, tell you the date in advance. ”

"Well, got it"

Su Rui was about to say goodbye.

Su Changle seemed to think of something again, and hurriedly asked. "You Mid-Autumn Festival, do you want to give your grandparents a gift?"

"Delivery, when I went to the county seat before the autumn harvest, I had already bought the fabrics for my grandparents. I'm going to go to the county seat again tomorrow and the day after tomorrow to buy some meat and snacks and the like. "Su Rui is not going to be stingy on this.

In ancient times, filial piety was greater than the sky, even if she didn't usually have much contact with the people in the old house, it didn't matter, but the etiquette of honoring the elderly was indispensable.

"When my father left, my grandmother said that in the future, I would give them 200 catties of filial piety food every summer, and we would usually come to the door less if we were fine. So I plan that when the time comes, the four festivals and food will be delivered on time. Su Rui didn't care, as if she was talking about other people's affairs.

"That's enough, just rely on you children, what else do you want?" Aunt Hua bit off the white thread.

Su Rui wanted to say something, but was interrupted by Su Chenwei...

Su Chenwei didn't wear a shirt, and she had a big bag of loaches. Ran into the house, "Mother, there are a lot of loaches in the small river in the village. ”

"Sister Su Rui and Sister Ying'er are also here." Su Chenwei scratched her head embarrassedly.

"Chen Wei, don't you change your clothes soon! I caught a cold for a while. Aunt Hua slapped Su Chenwei.

Su Chenwei shouted, "Mother, mother, I'll go now." Don't fight..."

Sister Su Rui covered her mouth and chuckled...

Aunt Hua said and took the small basket and filled half of it. "Dead boy, always uneasy. There are so many loaches here, Rui girl, you can take back a little bit, make some soup for your younger brothers and sisters, and change the taste. ”

Su Rui didn't refuse, a little loach is worthless. In the past two days, I went to the county seat to buy gifts, and I could buy some things for Aunt Hua's younger siblings.

"Thank you, auntie."

"You kid, always be so polite. Next time, I'll kick you out in such a polite way. Aunt Hua scolded with a smile.

"Hee-hee, you're not welcome to take me again."

For lunch, it was stewed loach soup with only a little salty soy sauce.

Su Rui felt a little earthy, but the Su family's younger siblings ate very deliciously, and even Xiao Chennan ate two small loach meats, if she wasn't afraid of accumulating food, she would probably still be eating......
