The rain did not follow a gradual process, it fell directly, and standing in the living room, you could hear the rain outside clearly.

"Aunt Chen, is the garage door open?" Ruan Siyao leaned over to the balcony and looked into the small garden outside, the flowers planted in the small garden had been discounted by the rain, and it was very miserable to look at.

Aunt Chen thought about it for a while, "It seems that it hasn't been opened, and it can't be opened now, if the door is opened, it will rain so heavily that water will enter the garage." ”

"Why don't you call and ask, it's raining so hard, I can't always be at peace in my heart." Seeing that the rain was getting heavier and heavier, Ruan Siyao felt anxious in his heart, like a headless fly, and kept turning around the house.

"Then let's send a WeChat first." Qin Zhen thought about it a little, but she was not very relieved.

Ruan Siyao got Qin Hao's approval and immediately sent a WeChat message to Jian Yunxi.

Jian Yunxi was shopping with Ruan Duo in the supermarket, and when he saw Ruan Siyao's WeChat, he called back. "Yaoyao, my uncle and I were shopping at the supermarket, and after reading the weather forecast, it seemed that there would be heavy to heavy rain in the next few days, and it was not very safe to go out in this weather. If you have anything you want to eat, just let me know by the way, and I'll buy it and take it home. And Auntie and Aunt Chen, you can also ask them what they want to eat, and send it to me later. Now there are too many people in the supermarket, and it is very noisy, so I won't say more. ”

"Okay, then you and Dad pay attention to safety, I'll send you a message after I ask." Ruan Siyao was afraid of delaying Jian Yunxi, so he quickly hung up the phone, "Mom, Dad and Xixi are in the supermarket, saying that there will be heavy rainstorms in the next few days, so they went to the supermarket to stock up." Whatever you want to eat, I'll send it to Clarity later. ”

"How many days is it going to be?" Qin Zhen took her mobile phone and looked at the weather forecast, and sure enough, it showed that it had been rainy in the past week, "In this way, it's better to buy more things and come back." What did you buy in the morning? How many days is enough for us to eat? ”

This question is really a bit difficult for Ruan Siyao, although she bought it back with Jian Yunxi, but she can't do it if she estimates that she can eat it for a few days.

At the critical time, I still have to rely on Aunt Chen, "I bought some chicken, duck and fish, but the amount is not very large." I didn't buy much vegetables, and I finally bought a little more vegetables back. There is not much rice at home, and the oil, salt, sauce and vinegar are almost used, I originally planned to go to the supermarket in two days to buy it, but now it seems that I will buy it all back. It's best to buy some paper towels to come back, there is not a lot of paper at home, I don't know if I can last until the end of the rain. ”

"Is there anything else you need?" Ruan Siyao wrote down everything Aunt Chen said.

"Buy some more flour and glutinous rice flour, it just happens to rain and you can't go out, I'll make dumplings for you at home and make dumplings to eat."

Qin Zhen also added two sentences: "Buy some fruit and come back, buy some bread from the supermarket exit and come back, and let them take care of the rest." ”

Ruan Siyao remembered the things he wanted to buy, plus the things he wanted, and sent them to Jian Yunxi.

Jian Yunxi quickly replied that he knew, and by the way, he instructed Ruan Siyao to pay attention to his mobile phone and send her a message when he got home, and then Ruan Siyao opened the garage door in advance.

The three of them waited in the living room, and when it was five o'clock, Aunt Chen went to the kitchen to cook first, and Ruan Siyao and Qin Zhen continued to wait.

Finally, when it was almost six o'clock, Jian Yunxi sent a message to Ruan Siyao, and Ruan Siyao hurriedly went to the underground garage and opened the garage door. In about five minutes, Ruan Duo arrived in the car.

The car drove into the garage and brought in a room full of water vapor. The car stopped steadily, Ruan Duo got out of the car and let out a long breath: "It's home, this road can make me nervous to death." ”

"Dad, you two are back, and we're worried at home. Nothing happened on the road, right? ”

"It's okay, it's just that some places are already flooded, so we drove a little slower, so we came back late." Ruan Duo took out a pair of clean shoes from the cabinet in the garage and changed them, "The rain this time is really heavy, and the underground garage on the supermarket side is flooded. Fortunately, the terrain here is high, otherwise our house would have been flooded. ”

Jian Yunxi also got out of the car, Ruan Siyao found a new pair of slippers that he hadn't worn and gave him, "Hurry up and change your shoes, wet shoes are uncomfortable." ”

Jian Yunxi changed his shoes and opened the back door, "I bought a lot of things this time, it should be enough to last a week." ”

Ruan Siyao leaned over to take a look, obediently, the back seat was full of things bought, and even the ground was full. "That's a lot, let's get it back quickly, it's time for dinner soon."

Jian Yunxi gave Ruan Siyao light tissues and the like, took the meat he bought, Ruan Duo opened the trunk, and the three of them worked hard for a while before moving all the things back to the house.

Qin Zhen didn't really care about the things she bought, "It's raining so hard outside, is there any water on the road?" How's going down in downtown? ”

"There is water in many places, especially in some places where the ground is low, and the car is driving on the road and is soaked in water. I didn't know much about the city center, but it rained and we left. Ruan Duo is now busy contacting colleagues at the law firm, "You wait a while, I'll ask the people in the law firm." ”

It's also a coincidence that the law firm is almost off work now, but there is still a person on duty, and when he received a call from Ruan Duo, he was in a hurry to get home.

"Brother Duo, is there something you are calling?"

"Simon, you're still in the law firm, aren't you?"

"Yes, I'm on duty today. Is there any document I want to send over? ”

"No, I just wanted to ask you how the law firm is doing? Is the stagnant water serious? ”

Simon stood on the floor-to-ceiling window and looked outside, "Our law firm is fine here, but I see that some sections of the road have been waterlogged, I checked just now, and the bus and subway have all stopped." I think if it rains like this, we probably won't be able to go to work tomorrow. ”

Ruan Duo immediately agreed: "Of course you can't go to work, I'll send a notice later, don't stay in the law firm, take advantage of the fact that there is not much water now, hurry home." ”

Simon smiled wryly: "Of course I want to go home, but now that the city's buses and subways are stopped, I don't know if I can get a taxi, and my home is more than an hour away from the law firm, so I can't walk back." ”

Ruan Duo thought for a while, "I have a house near the law firm, although I don't live for the time being, but everything is complete, why don't you go to live with me, it's not safe to go back to your house now." I'll send you the address later, it's still quite close to the law firm, it's a ten-minute walk away, and there happens to be a supermarket nearby, you can go to the supermarket to buy something, and you can live with me with peace of mind. There should be a raincoat in the storage room of the law firm, and you should wear a raincoat when you go out, because it is windy outside, and it is not safe to use an umbrella. ”

"Then you're welcome, thank you, Brother Duo."

After hanging up the phone, Ruan Duo sent Simon the address, "The city center is flooded, and I plan to give everyone in the law firm a holiday, and wait for the rain to stop before going to work." ”

When Qin Zhen heard this, she also had a bottom in her heart: "Okay, I also give the employees a holiday, and I don't know when this rain will stop. ”

"This rain is also coming urgently, and the sun is still shining in the morning, who knows that it will be like this now."

Ruan Siyao and Jian Yunxi helped Aunt Chen pack up the things they bought, and then washed their hands and called Ruan Duo and Qin Zhen to eat. After dinner, Qin Zhen was accompanied upstairs by Ruan Duo, and Ruan Siyao and Jian Yunxi were left downstairs to sit in the living room.

The two of them sat in front of the floor-to-ceiling window and chatted watching the rain outside.

"Clear, I don't know when this rain will end, how many days off did you and your uncle have?"

"I took a week off, but I don't know how long I'm going to be here, because it's raining too much." Jian Yunxi looked at the rain outside, and was really worried in his heart, not for anything else, but worried that the city would be flooded.

"Xixi, what's wrong with you, you don't look very happy."

"It's nothing, it's just that the rain is too heavy, I'm a little worried, after all, it's not the rainy season yet, there must be a demon when things go wrong, and I don't know if something will happen."

"Yes, this kind of rain should have been in July and August. And the last time I saw such a heavy rain, it was when I was in elementary school, it had been raining for more than half a month that year, and the water in the artificial lake in the community overflowed, and I don't know if it would be like before this time. ”

"I hope it's a little smaller." Listening to Ruan Siyao's words, Jian Yunxi's heart became even more worried.

After chatting for a while, Ruan Siyao became sleepy, "Clear, I'm sleepy, let's not sit here anymore, let's go upstairs and rest." Maybe tomorrow morning when I wake up, the rain outside will be lighter. ”

"I hope so."

After Ruan Siyao returned to the room, she took a shower and was ready to sleep, only to remember a very important thing, she came back this time for Qin Zhen's dessert shop, but after coming back for so long, she hadn't told her family about it.

As soon as she thought of this, all the sleepiness she had just now dissipated, and she hurriedly put on a piece of clothing and went to knock on Qin Zhen's door.

After the door opened, Ruan Duo looked like Ruan Siyao, and joked: "What's the matter, it's raining too much outside, so I can't sleep?" Or I'll sleep in the guest room, and you'll sleep with your mother. ”

"No, I'm either scared, or I want to come over and talk to my mom about the dessert shop."

Ruan Duo thought that Ruan Siyao was here to persuade Qin Zhen to rest, "You don't have to worry about the dessert shop, anyway, this rain will at least come for a week, and your mother won't go to the dessert shop." ”

"It's not this, why don't you go to the study and sit for a while, I have something I want to talk to my mother about."

"Okay, then you can go in and talk to your mother, and I'll come back when we're done."

Ruan Duo left happily, but Ruan Siyao was stunned, and he didn't know why, but he was very flustered. She stood outside the door, and there was no movement for a while, but Qin Zhen spoke: "Yaoyao, what are you doing?" Are you scared, hurry in, mom is with you. ”

Come on, anyway, sticking out your head is a knife, shrinking your head is also a knife, die early and live early! Ruan Siyao had such an idea and went in with courage.

Qin Zhen didn't know what Ruan Siyao was thinking, she really thought she was afraid of the storm outside. "I didn't expect you to be such a big person, and you would be afraid of wind and rain. When you were a child, you were afraid that you would come to me, but now it really hasn't changed at all. Your dad has gone to sleep in the guest room, and mom will accompany you tonight. ”

Ruan Siyao looked at Qin Zhen's smile, and his heart became even more agitated. "Mom, what would you think if I wanted to put my current job on hold?"

"Why pause? Aren't you doing a good job now, I remember the last time you said you were going to be promoted, did you say that you were not satisfied with your current position? ”

"No, I'm not dissatisfied, it's just ......" Ruan Siyao's words came to his mouth, and he went around and around, tangled for a while, and then gritted his teeth and said: "I have something to confess!" ”
