As soon as Yan Nian got outside, his eyes were covered by the heavy rain, and he hurriedly returned to the house, found a piece of his torn clothes to protect his head, and opened the door again.

At the base of the courtyard wall, he found two bundles of straw that had been soaked in rainwater, ran to the root of the eaves, and climbed up the house by a dilapidated wooden ladder.

The rain was falling too quickly, Yan Nian grabbed a bundle of straw and tried to open his eyes wide, and pedaled the ladder to climb up.

When Yan Nian was climbing down the ladder for the second time to get straw, someone shouted at the gate: "Sister-in-law Yan Nian, open the door quickly!" ”

Yan Nian hurriedly put down the straw and ran to the gate, and with the help of lightning, he saw the person who came, "Brother Huai, why are you here for such a heavy rain?" He asked, opening the door.

"Sister-in-law, is there a rain leak in your house?" Brother Huai was wearing a robe, and he was still holding two bundles of straw in his arms.

At this time, Yan Nian's heart was warm, and tears mixed with the rain flowed down silently, "Yes, didn't I come out to repair the roof." ”

Brother Huai looked at the straw in Yan Nian's arms, and said while walking to the ladder: "You go back to the house, I'll just come by myself, it's raining outside, don't get caught in the rain and suffer from the cold in your woman's house!" ”

Yan Nian shouted loudly, "I'm fine!" ”

Brother Huai took a few steps with straw and borrowed the wooden ladder to go up to the roof, looking at the two big holes in the roof, Brother Huai blocked one with straw, and turned around to go down the wooden ladder, and saw Yan Nian holding a bundle of straw standing in the middle of the wooden ladder watching.

"Here you go, I'll hand it to you!" Yan Nian threw the straw in his hand to Brother Huai.

"How's that, is it enough?" Yan Nian stood on the ladder and shouted.

Yan Nian looked at Brother Huai and wiped the rain from his face. Brother Huai looked at the roof and said loudly: "It's not enough, two more bundles are not enough!" ”

Brother Huai shouted: "Don't fall into your sister-in-law, I'll go down." As he spoke, he tried to go down the wooden ladder again.

Yan Nian got off the ladder, quickly ran to the wall, and climbed to the top of the ladder with two bundles of straw, stunned Brother Huai with flexible movements.

"Oh, sister-in-law, don't fall!"

"How much is there left of the bundle of straw at the base of the wall?" Yan Nian shouted.

Brother Huai looked at it and said, "It's still a little close." ”

Squinting his eyes, the rain-soaked hair stuck to Yan Nian's face, blocking Yan Nian's vision, "If it doesn't work, come down, and wait for the rain to stop." ”

Yan Nian is also afraid that this Brother Huai will make a mistake, so I can't stand Aunt Zhang.

Seeing that Brother Huai hesitated, half-squatted on the roof, and began to take off his clothes, "I have a way." ”

"What are you going to do? Don't take off your clothes, you'll get the cold, come down! Yan Nian saw that Brother Huai had to plug the hole with his coat despite being drenched in the rain, not to mention how uncomfortable he was, and tears of emotion burst out of his eyes again.

At this moment, two people came in from outside the door and shouted, "Yan Nian, come down!" Dangerous! ”

Yan Nian hurriedly turned around, it didn't matter if he turned around, the ladder leaning on the room fell backwards, so frightened that Yan Nian hurriedly turned over and landed steadily.

It can be seen that people exclaimed: "Yan Nian! ”

Standing still, Yan Nian saw that the people who came were Fang Mingyu and the housekeeper Lao Song. Fang Mingyu was holding an oil umbrella, the housekeeper was wearing a raincoat, and both of them were holding straw.

"Mingyu, why are you here?"

Fang Mingyu was stunned by Yan Nian's skills just now and stood in the courtyard, and when he heard Yan Nian's question, he suddenly realized and shouted, "I'll bring you straw." ”

Brother Huai on the roof looked at Yan Nian's thrilling scene, and was also frightened, and when he heard that the grass was coming, he immediately shouted on it: "Mingyu, send the straw quickly!" ”

The housekeeper Lao Song leaned the ladder against the room again and climbed to the roof, "Quick, how much is it missing?" ”

"That's the bundle for you." Brother Huai took the straw and skillfully filled the hole.

The two of them stood on the roof of the house again and looked at it, and felt that there was nothing missing, so they came down the ladder one after another.

Yan Nian was very grateful for the arrival of these people, and hurriedly greeted: "Quick, go and sit in the house." ”

Brother Huai was on the edge of the eaves, took off his coat, took off his hat and leaned against the wall, and said while shaking the rain on the coat: "Go to the house to see if there is any leakage?" ”

Fang Mingyu stood on the side of the stove in the outhouse, stomped on his water boots and followed Yan Nian into the house, and Lao Song also followed.

In the house, Nuo Nuo and Yanyan squatted in the corner of the kang, looking very pitiful, and when they saw someone entering the house, they hurriedly shouted: "Mother, don't miss it!" ”

When he saw the person clearly, Nuno politely shouted: "Hello uncle." ”

"Look at how sensible this kid is, it's so pitiful!" Fang Mingyu praised Nuo Nuo while looking at the pots and pots on the kang that received rainwater.

Yan Nian hurriedly found half a candle and lit it, held up the candle, and carefully looked at the shed to see if there was any rain leakage. After looking at it for a long time, it was finally determined that the roof was very well blocked, and there was no rain leakage.

"Thank you so much, look at it and see if you haven't missed anything."

Yan Nian said while cleaning up the basin on the kang.

"Thank you, if you want to say thank you, it's Brother Huai, what about people?" Fang Mingyu shouted outside.

Seeing that there was no sound, Yan Nian opened the door and looked at the door, where was there still the shadow of Brother Huai, and he had already left.

Fang Mingyu and Lao Song also walked out of the inner room, stood in the outhouse and said, "Okay, since it's been repaired, it can't be leaked, let's go back!" After that, Fang Mingyu bent down to pick up the oil umbrella and walked to the courtyard, and the old Song in the back said "We're leaving" and followed the young master and pulled the raincoat out of the room and walked towards the door.

Yan Nian knew that this Fang Mingyu still had an emotional foundation for the original owner, otherwise he would not have come to help repair the roof in the rain.

It's a pity that I'm no longer the same Yan Nian. After thinking about it, he put on his torn clothes and went out again, shouting behind the two people, "Thank you both." ”

Fang Mingyu turned around and saw Yan Nian standing at the gate, turned around and came back, walked to the gate, and handed the oil umbrella to Yan Nian: "Come into the house quickly, don't catch a cold." ”

"No, hurry up and grab the umbrella and go back, I'll run two steps to the house!" Yan Nian pushed the oil umbrella handed over by Fang Mingyu.

At this time, Song Bo hurriedly came over, saw that the young master was standing in the rain without an umbrella, and shouted in surprise: "Young master, be careful of yourself!" After saying that, he quickly took off his raincoat.

The two of them dragged the corner of their raincoats into the distance.

Yan Nian held the oil umbrella, closed the door, and went to the pigsty again.

opened the small door of the pigsty, Yan Nian looked carefully at the small shed, and saw that the pigsty was fine, not a drop of rain was leaked, and the little wild boar was lying there and heard that someone was coming, and he got up with a bang.

Yan Nian closed the door again and went back to the room.

Standing in the middle of the ground, water dripping down his clothes and pants, and a patch of rain was pouring under his feet. Nuno was busy in the bag in the cupboard, found his mother's clothes, and found a towel, "Mother, wipe it quickly, wipe it clean, change the wet clothes, be careful of catching a cold." ”

Seeing his son so sensible, Yan Nian couldn't help but burst into tears.
