After delivering the tofu, the third brother came out of the restaurant. Looking at the weather, he had a bad feeling. Dark clouds were rolling towards him.

It should rain soon.

The donkey saw the third brother looking up at the sky, looking a little anxious, and digging the ground with his hooves. When he saw that no one was coming, his big eyes blinked and his thick eyelashes were like a fan. His master didn't look over here either.

He simply opened his mouth and made a few "Hmm, Hmm~" donkey sounds, which attracted the attention of the third brother.

Looking at the donkey's talking eyes, the third brother instantly understood its thoughts and took two quick steps to sit on the car.

The third brother thought of waving the whip in front of the dog, but he didn't even need to do that.

The donkey didn't want to be drenched, so it spread out its four hooves and ran much faster than usual, but it was able to dodge pedestrians in time and pull the people and the cart home safely.

This donkey is lazy when it should be lazy, and diligent when it should be diligent. The whip has basically never hit it.

The third brother sat on the cart and patted the donkey's butt. It was really like whoever bought it. The donkey inherited Ni'er's cleverness.

We had already entered the village. The sound of thunder kept ringing in our ears. The donkey was running as fast as it could, but the roads in the village were not as smooth as those on the streets. It had rained quite frequently recently, and the ground was wet and dry, dry and wet, with potholes everywhere. So the donkey's speed slowed down a bit.

But the donkey knew what was going on and moved his ears to sense when the rain would fall.

The cart stopped steadily in front of the door. The third brother jumped down, opened the door, pulled the donkey in, unloaded the cart, and the donkey walked slowly and gracefully into the shed.

He raised his neck and let out another "hmm," and you could hear the comfort and satisfaction in his voice.

It lay directly on the hay, crossed its front hooves, looked outside from time to time, chewed something in its mouth, waiting for the rain.

"Has Nell come back?"

The third brother shouted towards the inner room.

Yan Zi raised her head, pressed her aching neck and shoulders, and looked at the rain outside with some worry, "He's not back yet."

The third brother took his straw raincoat and hat and was about to go out, "I'll go get it."

Niu Li wanted to go out. He had always seen his father wearing clothes before, but he had never worn them before. He was not tall enough to put them on, so he had to drag them along, and his clothes were worn out on the ground.

I secretly measured it when I was at home. It has grown a bit recently, so I should be able to wear it. This thing is very spacious, so it’s no problem for my sister and I to stay in it together.

"Dad, I'll go, you cook at home."

"Okay, my son has grown up."

The third brother touched Niu Li's little face and said, "Go ahead."

Looking at him carrying his straw raincoat and hat, walking forward twistingly like a little duck, I couldn't help but raise the corners of my mouth.

Nier heard thunder in the distance. The sound was even louder than what she heard on the mountain that day. She had to go home quickly or she didn't want to be hit by the rain on the way.

He swung his legs as high as he could, so fast that he could see the afterimage.

There seemed to be a familiar figure in front of me, holding something in his hand.

I was so busy running forward that I didn't look carefully. Everyone is rushing home now, so who has the time to care about these things?

A voice that couldn't be more familiar came into my ears.

"Sister~"

When Niu Li saw his sister, he stopped where he was.

I can no longer lift the straw raincoat and hat in my hands. They are indeed quite heavy and I have to take a break after every few steps. I really overestimated myself. These are not things I can handle at this age. I should wait until I grow up a little before using them.

Fortunately, Ni'er was not far from home, otherwise Niu Li would have to spend a lot of effort to carry the things back.

Nier didn't slow down and rushed directly to her brother.

"Not bad, you all know to come out to pick us up. It must be heavy to carry, why don't you put it on and let's go back quickly."

Niu Li felt a little embarrassed when his sister praised him, and his face turned slightly red.

A thunder struck nearby, interrupting Niu Li's thoughts.

"Okay, help me put it on."

Niu Li was really looking forward to it, this was the first time he wore it like this, he could wear it when it wasn’t raining, but it felt different when he wore it when it wasn’t raining.

And usually when it rains, my dad always wears it and it’s never my turn. Today I finally get to experience it.

It hasn't snowed yet, but I'm really looking forward to it. I hope it will snow soon so that I can experience wearing a real straw raincoat.

Nier helped her brother put on his clothes, which saved a lot of effort compared to carrying them.

A few more thunders were heard, the wind and clouds suddenly changed, and the surroundings became dark. It was obvious that the rain was about to fall.

"Run."

"Ah."

The straw raincoat Niu Li was wearing was rather heavy, so he could not run as fast as Ni'er, so he had to grit his teeth to keep up.

I feel like I’m growing up a little slowly. When can I be like my dad? Now it’s hard for me to even wear a straw raincoat.

I rushed into the house just before it started raining.

"Whoo~"

They both held onto the door frame, gasping for breath.

The sky outside seemed to have a hole in it, and the rain was pouring down like water. Fortunately, fortunately, this moment is the happiest.

The third child is busy in the kitchen. It’s a little cooler today, so he can eat some hot meals to warm up his body.

There is everything at home, including vegetables and meat, all of which were stockpiled earlier and prepared to make a stew.

I heard Ni'er and Niu Li come in, followed by the sound of heavy rain. It was a relief that the children didn't get wet.

I leaned my head out of the kitchen and looked at Ni'er and Niu Li in the house. I spoke several times louder than usual, but I was afraid that they couldn't hear me through the rain curtain.

"You guys came back just in time."

Ni'er was so happy that she couldn't stop smiling. Before, she had to change clothes and shoes, wash her hair and take a shower, but today she didn't have to do anything.

"Yes, it was poured a little later."

The water in the kitchen has already boiled. The third child no longer pays attention to the two children and has to concentrate on cooking, otherwise the whole family will starve.

Ni'er wanted to help her brother take off his raincoat, but just as she was about to reach out her hand, she was held down by Niu Li.

"Sister, I finally put it on. Wait until I'm out for a while before taking it off."

"Row."

Nier picked up the bamboo hat beside her and helped her brother put it on. The little guy looked quite funny dressed like that.

Niu Li walked outside slowly. His hat was a bit big and covered his eyes directly. His raincoat blocked his arms and it was difficult for him to lift them up.

I thought that if I couldn’t see it, then I didn’t see it. It was my home anyway and we were so familiar with each other that I shouldn’t fall.

Touching the door frame, I walked out step by step. It turned out that this is the sound and feeling of rain falling on it. It's really magical.

It can actually keep out the rain.

Niu Li spun around excitedly, but he couldn't jump up because his clothes were too heavy.

The outside and the inside of the straw raincoat are two completely different worlds.

"Come in quickly, your pants and shoes will be covered in mud."
