A few more days passed in the blink of an eye.
Today, Sijiu City ushered in a heavy rain. It started to rain at four o'clock in the morning. Thunder snakes danced in the dark lead clouds, and the rumbling rolling thunder made people's ears buzz. The little tiger girl was so scared that she peed on the bed.
“What a mess!”
It was less than five o’clock, and Chu Heng, who had been working in the basement for half the night yesterday, crawled out of the study sleepily and stood on the verandah. Looking at the pouring rain, his brows were almost knitted together.
The rain was really heavy. Even though his yard had been re-drained, there was still a lot of water in the patio. It looked like he was going to lose his feet!
From this we can see that the situation outside must be even worse!
On a day like this, it is not suitable for going to work. You should be eating hot pot at home, playing mahjong, teasing the children, and just being a salted fish.
However, Chu Heng had a reason to go to work today.
Evi Ma's autobiography was completed yesterday afternoon. After reading it roughly, he asked Yin Gao to make an appointment with some people and prepare to hold a reading meeting in the ministry today to collect various information. Similar to how people feel after reading this book.
If it doesn’t meet expectations, just make some changes, and then read it again until you are satisfied.
It’s much better than testing the waters for a one-shot deal...
“Hey!”
Chu Heng sighed depressedly, turned back to the house, picked up the toiletries, went to the bathroom, and waited. After washing, he ran to the master bedroom again.
Ni Yinghong is still sleeping. Her belly is getting bigger and bigger. She has long been unable to sleep on her back in her favorite way. At this time, she is lying sideways on the canopy bed, with her face facing the door and covering her belly. From time to time, a bulge would appear on the thin blanket. It was the prince of the Chu family who was acting like a monster in my belly again.
Chu Heng walked quietly to the bedside, squatted down and looked at his wife's beautiful face, which was a little swollen due to pregnancy.
He reached out his hand and gently stroked Ni Yinghong's cheek, his starry eyes full of pity.
“Hmm!”
Ni Yinghong opened her eyes in a daze and saw her husband appearing in her eyes. A sweet smile immediately appeared at the corner of her mouth, and she immediately leaned forward and kissed her. One mouthful.
“What time is it?”
“It’s only five o’clock, please sleep a little longer.”
"Are you going to get pregnant?"
"Shall we say goodbye? You have to endure it first, and then you can get pregnant after having a baby."
"What did you say? I asked you if it was five o'clock sharp."< br>
“Oh, it’s a little after five o’clock.”
“Is it raining outside?”
"Well, it's quite big. The yard is almost flooded. There was thunder just now, very loud."
"I have no idea...Hey, come up here and hug me for a while."< br>
“Alas.”
Chu Heng immediately took off his shoes and climbed onto the bed. He hugged his wife who turned over from behind, arching his body and fitting her closely, his palms resting on her naturally. At the fruit stall.
Ni Yinghong felt her husband's warm embrace, breathed in his scent, closed her eyes happily, and quietly enjoyed this moment of tenderness.
Well...she could only enjoy it quietly.
Chu Heng picked up the fan on the bedside and gently fanned his wife. Although it was raining outside and the temperature had dropped a bit, the room was a little stuffy.
Just like that, the time soon came to half past six. As Yang Guizhi shouted that dinner was ready, people who were nestled in their respective rooms opened the door and walked out.
Chu Heng also woke up Ni Yinghong, helped her put on clothes, then helped her to the bathroom, went to the toilet, washed up, and then went to the main room together.
Because of the rain, Yang Guizhi didn't go out to buy breakfast. Today's breakfast was simple white flour steamed buns with gruel, plus shredded pickles, fermented bean curd, salted duck eggs and other ingredients.
At this time, everyone has already eaten. The deaf old lady with dentures is now in a hurry. The pickle sticks that she was not afraid of touching before now make a crunching sound.
The old lady Wu Xiumei sitting nearby couldn't help but cast an envious look. She couldn't wear her dentures yesterday because a tooth fell out of her mouth. Now she can only eat steamed buns and drink porridge. , eat something soft.
My eldest cousin has a good appetite as always. She can only eat a big steamed bun in two or three bites. She lifts her neck up from a bowl of gruel and can finish it in one go.
“Eight!”
Little Huniu, who was sitting in my mother's arms, grabbing a piece of steamed bun and eating it deliciously, found out that her godfather was coming, dropped the piece of steamed bun and reached out to him.
"You damn girl, if you dare to throw away food again, believe it or not, I will beat you?" Qin Jingru frowned, patted her daughter's hand and scolded her. She came from the countryside and is better than the people in the city. I also understand the preciousness of food. It is all watered by drops of sweat, and I don’t dare to waste it.
“Why are you beating her? She is a small child. What does the child know?" Looking at the little Huniu whose eyes were red because of the mother's scolding, Chu Heng was heartbroken. After helping his wife to the seat, he quickly reached out to take the child over and comforted her warmly: "Oh, oh, Don’t cry, it’s okay. Your mother doesn’t dare to hit you. If she dares to hit you, your godfather will whip him with a big whip!”
Wouldn’t he whip you every day if he doesn’t?
"Just spoil her, and she will be spoiled sooner or later." Qin Jingru glanced at the two of them helplessly, then turned back to continue eating.
"What do you know? A girl should be spoiled!" Chu Heng sat down with the child in his arms, took the steamed buns handed over by Ni Yinghong, broke off a piece and gave it to the little guy, and then started to eat.
“Here you go.”
After eating a steamed bun, Ni Yinghong suddenly delivered a salted duck egg without the yolk.
After getting pregnant, this woman had more and more stinky problems. She ate salted duck eggs instead of egg whites. She said the egg whites had a fishy smell and made her feel nauseous after eating them, so she always picked out the egg yolks and gave the egg whites to Chu Heng. If he doesn’t eat anymore Feed the dog...
Chu Heng didn’t mind it either. He took a steamed bun, broke it open, put the egg white inside, smeared some fermented bean curd, and wiped it off after a few bites. After that, he had another bowl of porridge, and wiped his mouth for the last time. Breakfast is the end of the day.
After eating and drinking, he lazily leaned back on the chair and glanced outside. It was still raining heavily. Then he turned to his eldest cousin and Qin Jingru and urged: "You two, eat quickly. I will take you two to work later." Go."
"I'll do it right away."
The eldest cousin quickly put the half-rolled bun into her mouth, then quickly got up and left the hall, running along the corridor to her room to pack her things. .
Qin Jingru also finished the porridge in her bowl in a few mouthfuls, and ran out closely behind.
"Here's the food for you three." Yang Guizhi stood up at this time, took the three lunch boxes from the square table behind him, and placed them in front of Chu Heng.
"Okay, I'm leaving."
Chu Heng lowered his head and kissed the little Huniu on the face, then handed the giggling child to his wife, picked up the lunch box, and returned to the study with swaying shoulders. .
Not for a while.
The three of them came out of the house holding umbrellas, and saw that the alley was already filled with ocean, the water was up to their ankles, and there were some unexplainable things floating above.
“Get in the car and get in.”
Chu Heng quickly led the two women into the car, and then drove away quickly in the Volga under the envious eyes of the neighbors who were wearing raincoats and wading through the muddy water to go to work.
