Chapter 218: Wind and Rain

Today Du Lin seemed very happy, he slowly finished the bowl of egg fried rice, even if it was the green onion that he was usually very reluctant to eat, this time he did not ask Lin Qingrou to help him pick them out one by one, but ate them all without mind.

Lin Qingrou looked at Du Lin from time to time while eating the rice in her bowl, and the emotion in her eyes came from a mother's most instinctive care and love.

Du Zeming quickly finished his share of egg fried rice, and he quietly looked at the time displayed on his phone, it was almost 10 o'clock. He was hesitating whether to take Du Lin home or leave on his own.

At this time, a white light flashed outside, followed by a deafening loud noise, and Du Lin screamed and got into Lin Qingrou's arms. At this time, it is the rainy season, and such thunderstorms are not uncommon, and tonight the rain seems to be particularly heavy, and there is no intention of stopping at all.

The lights in the room flickered briefly after the thunder, then went out. The house was plunged into darkness, Lin Qingrou hugged Du Lin and comforted him in a whisper, the huge thunder and the sudden darkness just now really scared him a little.

"This house has not been inhabited for a long time, and I haven't moved in for a long time, maybe some of the lines are aging." Lin Qingrou said.

Du Zeming snorted, got up from his seat, and asked, "Where is the distribution box of the house?" ”

Lin Qingrou thought for a while, and replied with some embarrassment: "It seems to be on the wall on the west side of the door." ”

A bright light came, Du Zeming turned on the flashlight function in his mobile phone and walked to the door. Lin Qingrou took Du Lin's little hand and followed, she knew that Du Zeming wanted to go over and check it out, but now that it was stormy outside, it was really not suitable to go out.

"You better not go out, it's raining too hard outside now, let's wait and see." Lin Qingrou said behind Du Zeming.

Du Zeming didn't seem to want to appreciate it, and he said in a very affirmative tone: "It is estimated that the thunder just now overloaded the current, causing the distribution box to trip." How can it work without electricity at night, I'll go check and come back. ”

Lin Qingrou knew that she couldn't persuade Du Zeming, so she hurriedly found an umbrella and followed.

"Linlin, Dad is going to take a look outside, Mom sent him an umbrella, you stay at home alone, don't be afraid, okay?" Lin Qingrou said silently with Du Lin's little face.

Du Lin nodded obediently and said yes. Lin Qingrou lit up her mobile phone and handed it to Du Lin.

She walked out of the house with an umbrella, and Du Zeming had already walked along the rain-soaked floor under the eaves to the west. Ignoring the fact that he was drenched in the rain, he walked over to the distribution box on the wall.

Lin Qingrou knew that if Du Zeming was holding an umbrella, he would not be able to operate it very well, and if there was thunder outside, such behavior was actually very dangerous. She stepped forward a little nervously, but was quickly stopped by Du Zeming.

"Bring me a wrench or a screwdriver." Du Zeming said loudly, but under the loud noise outside, he still looked a little weak.

Lin Qingrou nodded knowingly, and immediately turned around and went into the house to look for these tools, but she wasn't sure if there were these two things at home, not to mention that she didn't know where these tools would be placed.

Du Zeming continued to ask for some tools to pry open the iron door of the distribution box at this time, because it had not been opened for a long time, the iron door had rusted at this time, and the keyhole had been completely rotted and rusted.

He tried several times in a row, but he couldn't open the iron door of the distribution box by hand. At this time, the mobile phone rang, and Du Zeming had no time to pay attention to the call from Liu Anfei, probably asking why he hadn't gone back so late.

Du Zeming pressed the phone, and at this time, Lin Qingrou finally came over with a screwdriver.

"Go back inside."

"Go stay with Linlin."

Du Zeming took the screwdriver handed over by Lin Qingrou and said repeatedly.

With the help of a screwdriver, Du Zeming finally pried open the iron door of the distribution box, took a photo of it with his mobile phone, and sure enough, the main gate jumped off. Du Zeming carefully pulled the main brake up, but immediately felt a lot of resistance on the tips of his fingers.

It seemed that there was no way to power every room, so he pulled some of the lines that didn't seem very important, and then tried to pull the main switch, and this time it worked.

When Du Zeming returned to the house drenched, the lighting in the living room had been restored. Lin Qingrou took Du Lin with one hand and handed over a dry towel. Du Zeming took the towel and wiped his hair and hands carelessly, but this did not help.

Du Lin clapped his little hands and cheered: "Dad is so good, Dad is so good!" ”

At this time, Lin Qingrou found that the towel that Du Zeming had wiped was stained with some red marks, at first she thought it might be rust or something, but when she got closer, it turned out to be bloodstains.

Lin Qingrou asked a little nervously, "Are you injured and bleeding somewhere?" ”

Du Zeming looked at the blood stains on the towel, and then realized that there was a cut on his palm, and blood was flowing out at the moment. He remembered that he probably accidentally cut it when he tried to break the distribution box with his hand just now.

Lin Qingrou hurriedly ran to find a small medicine box, which contained some medical iodine wine, medical cotton balls and other emergency medical supplies. Without waiting for Du Zeming to react, she grabbed his hand, soaked a medical cotton ball with iodine wine, and then carefully cleaned the skin around the wound.

When the wound had almost stopped bleeding, she took out another band-aid and gently applied it to the place where the skin had broken out. Lin Qingrou lowered her head and concentrated on doing these tasks, while Du Zeming felt a little dazed by smelling her elegant fragrance.

"I'm sorry, I only have these band-aids at home, but I shouldn't have a problem dealing with them this way. You go take a shower, you're already soaking wet, the Band-Aid is waterproof. Lin Qingrou said lightly, then packed up her things and put them into the small medicine box again,

Du Zeming looked at his embarrassed appearance, so he had to nod and go to the bathroom. In the bathroom, Lin Qingrou had already prepared hot water, and a set of clean home clothes and toiletries were placed next to her.

Take off this wet clothes, and the phone in your pocket has a low battery reminder. Du Zeming didn't care about this, he just wanted to take a hot shower quietly now to wash away the tiredness and dampness of the day.

After Du Zeming came out after washing and changing into home clothes, he saw Du Lin watching TV in the living room alone, and did not see Lin Qingrou.

When Du Lin saw Du Zeming come out, he said happily to him: "Dad, Dad, Mom said I can sleep here today." ”

Du Zeming walked over and asked Du Lin: "Linlin, where is Mom, where did she go?" ”

Du Lin raised his cute little face, looked at Du Zeming and replied, "Mom is taking a bath in the upstairs room, let me obediently watch TV here and wait for her." ”

Du Zeming nodded and stroked Du Lin's little head. He wandered around downstairs casually, and the grand piano by the window caught his attention, and he slowly walked over to see a hand-copied sheet music on the music shelf, the handwriting on it was very immature, crooked, but it looked somewhat cute.

This should be Lin Qingrou's thing, but unfortunately Du Zeming has never heard her play, because he didn't know that Lin Qingrou could play the piano. Du Zeming knew too little about Lin Qingrou, or he never thought of getting to know this woman well.

Du Zeming's thoughts were torn apart bit by bit, and he was pulled back to the days when he lived with Lin Qingrou before. Now that I think about it, every quarrel and contradiction at that time seems so childish and ridiculous.

He finally remembered that the anger he had vented against Lin Qingrou in the past was simply nothing to do, just to relieve her anger. What kind of despair and helplessness should this woman endure so many times of scolding and insults for no reason.

Now that Lin Qingrou has finally left herself, she looks more radiant, relaxed and happy than before, and even the label of dumb, which has been despised and ridiculed for her, has been completely torn off, thinking of this, Du Zeming's heart actually felt a little sad.

Just when Du Zeming's thoughts were still floating in his memories, Du Lin called out a few times to his mother, pulling him back to the present. Lin Qingrou had already put on a pale pink home clothes, and the wet hair that had not had time to dry was casually draped, gently covering half of Lin Qingrou's cheeks.

This look looks casual and laid-back, but it adds a touch of mystery and femininity. Lin Qingrou's figure has always been very well-proportioned, and the lines in every place are outlined just right, and Du Zeming's mouth gradually became a little dry.

And Lin Qingrou also had a look of surprise when she saw Du Zeming for the first time. The loungewear he was wearing was supposed to belong to her father, Lin Bojie, but it was no longer needed before it was unpacked from the bag.

I thought that this loungewear would be forgotten in the corner of the room, but today I didn't expect it to be worn on Du Zeming's body. Father Lin Bojie is very tall, he has broad shoulders, and now Du Zeming, who is wearing this loungewear, looks like a special fit, probably because Du Zeming's figure is already tall and slender.

The two men looked at each other for a few seconds, and an indescribable feeling burst out. It seemed as if the atmosphere was going to be cold again, a mixture of embarrassment and silence.

"Mommy, Mommy, can Daddy be with us today?" Du Lin on the side gently tugged on the hem of Lin Qingrou's clothes and asked in a low voice.
