Strong winds accompanied heavy rain, and as the first drop of rain fell, the village suddenly started shouting "Yaowazi, go home quickly!" and "Mom, the rabbit has escaped!"

People working outside are running to their homes!

The heavy rain was like broken beads, which first hit the ground and made dust fly, making patterns.

Then they were densely connected to the sky and the earth, and it was impossible to distinguish the north, south, east, and west.

Li Laoshi sat at the door, crossed his legs and looked around: I wonder whose roof leaked first?

Sister-in-law Jiang said that she could lend them a place to shelter from the rain, but... they all said that it is easier to invite gods than to send them away.

In the past, Xu Changshou wanted to stay in the medical shack and not leave. Now if someone comes here, they will probably say that the shack has collapsed and there is no place to live.

Hehe, but I have a lot of ideas.

Li Laoshi thought of this, stood up and looked around again: Hey, why is there no movement yet? It should be coming soon, right?

The shacks in the village really couldn't withstand such heavy rain. It didn't take long for someone wearing a raincoat and holding a quilt to run over: "Honestly, my shack is leaking. Can I hide here with you for a while?"

Li Laoshi was immediately happy when he saw the person coming, but he held it back and said with a straight face: "No, no, Xu Genqing, you have worked here too. Do you know that the warehouse is a big place and no idlers are allowed to enter?"

Xu Genqing shook the water on his raincoat: "It's quite wide here, so I'll take a small piece."

Because medicine needs to be dried, in addition to the tall warehouse, there is also an extended drying shed outside, which can accommodate seventy or eighty people even if squeezed inside and outside.

Li Laoshi didn't know that he had any intention of surrendering, and shook his head like a rattle: "No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no. This is Village Chief Jiang's warehouse, no idlers can be allowed in or out."

Xu Genqing was also anxious.

For just a moment, water leaked from all over the shack. Even though all the pots and pans were put in and they could still be caught, I was afraid that over time, even the roof would collapse.

"Hey, Li Laoshi, you are stupid! If you don't tell me, who knows, and Aunt Jiang is not here!" Xu Genqing patiently persuaded.

Li Laoshi refused to give in and refused. Xu Genqing stamped his feet angrily: "Do you want to be beaten?"

Li Laoshi stiffened his neck, leaned over and chuckled: "Come and hit me! Give it a try!"

Xu Genqing didn't dare to fight. Just as he was about to scare him a few more times, he saw another person running out of the rain.

"Honest, honest! Xia Xiucai's house is going to be flooded, so we have to move his house here!"

The person coming is Xu Gensheng.

Li Laoshi responded repeatedly: "Hey! Come on!"

Behind them, Tian Gui and others came over surrounded by Xia Xiucai and his family. They were only a hundred meters away, and everyone's rain gear was soaked with water.

Li Laoshi was about to ask the Xia family to stand in the back, but Xu Gensheng pulled him aside and whispered: "Xia Xiucai is sick, let him go into the room."

Li Laoshi blinked and looked up.

Xia Xiucai's arms were held by the scholar's wife and Xia's mother respectively. His body was weak and weak, and he could not struggle when being held by the two women.

Originally he was just in a daze, but now he looked ferocious and made a painful "ahhh" sound.

Xia Yuan followed behind, holding a bag of books, looking very calm.

"Okay, come in quickly!" Li Laoshi opened the door and asked the Xia family to go in quickly.

Tian Gui and the others went in, but Xu Genqing was the only one standing outside.

Just when Li Laoshi was about to sigh, Xu Genqing already said: "Honest! My family also wants to hide for a while!"

He still wanted to come here to take shelter from the rain, but now that Xia Xiucai was here, he couldn't rush him.

Li Laoshi scratched his head and pretended to be embarrassed: "Oh, this is the place where Village Chief Jiang collects medicine. It doesn't matter if you come to take shelter from the rain. If Village Chief Jiang finds out, I will be scolded."

Xu Genqing was no longer as impatient as before. He sighed and shook his head, as if he was afraid of disturbing Xia Xiucai who was ill. He lowered his voice: "Li Laoshi, don't worry! We will leave as soon as the rain stops. We won't stay here any longer and embarrass you." .”

Li Laoshi thought for a while, rubbed his hands and made up his mind: "Okay, come on! The village chief wants to scold me for carrying the burden!

But you have to keep your word. If your mother makes a fuss here and frightens Xia Xiucai, I will chase her away! "

Xu Genqing curled his lips: "You don't need to rush me, I know it! Xia Xiucai is also a pitiful person, hey! It's not good to study too much. If you get into trouble, you will end up like this..."

It was raining more and more, and people were rushing here one after another. Li Laoshi still struggled with people before agreeing.

Xu Gensheng, who had already come over, saw Li Laoshi refusing on the surface, smiling and pretending, and couldn't help but sarcastically said: "Li Laoshi, you don't want to be a good person, but you want to be a dog! Aunt Jiang has already said, who is this? It can cause water leakage, you only have so many tricks!”

Li Laoshi snorted: "Dogs' eyes also distinguish people. Those who are usually rude to me and are against Sister-in-law Jiang, why should they feel comfortable coming here!"

Xu Gensheng was a bully, and when he met Li Laoshi, he was like a villain. He immediately winked and said: "There are still a few people in the village who haven't come. Even if you are capable, you are in a difficult situation!"

Now six or seven families have come, and they all gather together and complain that their shacks are leaking.

There were also those who didn't come, such as Xu Genyou and Tian Gui's family. Their shacks were the best.

There are also people who haven’t had water leaks, such as Xu Changming...

Li Laoshi was getting carried away at this time. When he heard the challenge, he immediately became energetic. He raised his head and his loose bun was crumbling on his head: "If he dares to come, I, Lao Li, will make him cry!"

"Cough cough cough!" Xu Gensheng choked on his own saliva, coughed a few times and said hurriedly: "Aunt Qin will be here in a while, don't be like this, save some face for Brother Qing."

Here they are still thinking about saving face for Xu Genqing, who has left long ago and has not come over yet.

Unexpectedly, Xu Genqing had lost face at this time!

When Mrs. Qin heard that she wanted to go to Mrs. Jiang's house to take shelter from the rain, but the Tian family nearby did not leave, she suddenly felt humiliated.

He cried that he would not leave even if he died in the shack, and pointed at Xu Genqing: "Son, other people's shacks don't leak, but ours leaks, don't you think it's embarrassing?"

Xu Genqing said: "What's so embarrassing? Our family is not the only one like this! Let's go! I told Li Laoshi."

When Mrs. Qin thought about being spanked in public, she didn't want to go.

Just scold Xu Genqing, scold him for not living up to expectations, scold him for having no son, scold him for not being as capable as the boss.

Xu Genqing felt like he was about to burst with anger, so he didn't care about anything and immediately ran away with his wife.

Only a fool doesn't know how to run when he's caught in the rain!

In another shack, Xu Changming was also sulking because he couldn't scold his children and grandchildren.

Because the second child next door had already been picked up by Xu Gensheng, and when he was leaving, the little boy deliberately loudly said that there was room for everyone.

To hide from the rain by yourself... wouldn't that mean crawling under a woman's armpit?

If you don’t go, you won’t go even if you die!

On Laoyunya, Jiang Zhi was giving Peggy a bath thanks to the rain.

Just now, the wild boar chased the rabbit and fell into the mud ditch. It was so muddy that it couldn't see its nose and eyes.

Xu Errui stretched out his hand to catch the water on the eaves, looked up at the pouring rain in the sky, and sighed: "Those houses in the village must not be able to stop it. Fortunately, our warehouse can shelter from the rain."

He now has the time to care about others.
