The unlucky guy was reborn as a lucky girl from a farm

After all, they paid me, so I have to do the job if I get paid. Maybe there will be such a job for me in the future.

There was a whole pot of medicinal herbs, all of which had popped out. No one had ever seen medicine boiled in this way. It was truly breathtaking. Even my aunt, who often boiled medicine, was stunned by the number of herbs.

"How can I endure this?"

"Just add water and boil it. This thing is like a vegetable. Cover the pot and cook for a while, and it will go away."

Several people started working without saying a word. They picked up buckets of water and added water into the water one bucket at a time. They also added firewood recklessly. If there was not enough, the water would not boil.

A group of people were gathering around a big pot, and soon everyone started sweating.

The person watching the fire suffered even more. He added firewood and blew air into the fire, which made his mouth dry and his tongue parched. At first, he could sweat, but later all the sweat was burned dry.

Seeing this, the aunt scooped out a bowl of water and handed it to the person who was burning the fire. "Drink it. I'll watch the fire. You go and take a rest."

The man took the water and felt embarrassed to drink it. After all, it was used to make medicine for others, so how could he drink it casually? Drinkable water was very scarce now, and each person only had a little bit every day. He had already drunk his share, so he resisted the urge to drink it. His lips were so dry that they cracked, and he couldn't help licking them with his tongue.

Seeing that she wanted to drink but didn't dare to, the aunt understood that she was an honest person. She didn't even make a move to drink even when the water was placed at her lips. "We who work for the government have plenty of water to drink every day, so don't worry."

I looked up at the other person, still feeling a little worried, my brows slightly furrowed, wondering if my aunt had acted on her own.

Suspiciously, he uttered two words slowly, "Really?"

Seeing her expression, the aunt was a little bit unbelieving, but she was not angry at all. This was normal. She was too honest. If it were someone else, there would be no such problem and they would have grabbed the drink and drank it all.

"Of course it's true. Why would I lie to you? Those who don't work get less than us. We sit around the stove all day long, and we're not allowed to drink water in the hot summer. If they fall ill, there's no one to work for them. Don't you think so?"

That's right. He took the water, looked at it for a few seconds and couldn't bear to drink it. So he simply closed his eyes, made up his mind, picked it up and drank it all.

The others were so hot that they wanted to drink water after seeing her drinking.

"Auntie, can we drink?"

"Yes, yes. We who work can drink twice as much water every day as those who don't work."

"That's not much."

"Just be content. If they don't let you drink, there's nothing you can do about it. After all, you paid for it. Now they're giving you water, that's good enough."

"When will the water recede? It's been so long."

"It's not much better than at the beginning. It doesn't rain much now. In a few days, we won't have to wade through the water to walk, and we'll soon have clean water to drink."

"I hope so."

The medicine in the pot was bubbling, and the place was filled with the aroma of Chinese medicine. Although everyone was used to the smell of medicine here and didn't think it was that bad, but with such a big pot, everyone's nose seemed to be more sensitive, and they felt that the smell was drilling into their noses. The smell that could be ignored before has now become a lot more overbearing.

There was a sudden thunder in the sky and dark clouds began to gather towards this side.

Everyone looked up, then looked at the person who had just said it wouldn't rain, and said in unison, "What a crow's mouth."

"Hey~ I'm not~ I..."

I wanted to say something in my defense, but I opened my mouth and didn't know what to say. It seemed that nothing I said would be of any use. Now that things have come to this, I might as well shut up. The more I say, the more mistakes I'll make.

Nier looked at the sky, hoping that the rain would be lighter or stop soon, for she was afraid that the man digging the yellow mud might be in danger.

"Let's find a place to shelter from the rain."

"But there's medicine boiling in the pot, and someone needs to watch over it. We can't do without someone here."

Ni'er held a basket to cover her head. The rain was getting heavier and heavier. It would be troublesome if they got caught in the rain and got sick.

"You all should go and hide from the rain. Come back when the rain stops. Don't get sick."

"But……"

"Don't worry, let's go, it looks like it's going to rain heavily soon."

Several people left without looking back, leaving only the aunt behind.

"It's hard to look after the medicine by yourself, so I'll stay here to help."

Ni'er felt warm in her heart, but her aunt was not suitable to be here. If she got sick, there would be no one to take care of her son. No outsider could take care of him as well as his own mother.

"Aunt, I can take care of this place by myself, please go back."

My aunt followed Ni'er's example and covered her head with something. As long as her head was not wet, there was no big problem.

He patted his arm and said to Ni'er, "It's okay. I'm strong and healthy. I'm not afraid of this little rain. Don't worry about me."

You can’t tell how strong my aunt is, but her movements make people feel at ease.

Ni'er still wanted her to take a rest. After all, she had done the most work recently and should rest, otherwise she would get sick from exhaustion.

"Take this opportunity to go back and spend some time with Erwazi. After all, he hasn't recovered yet and he must be missing you."

The aunt was a little hesitant when talking about her son, but there was a lot of work to do here, and she was worried about leaving Ni'er alone with a child.

After much thought, I decided not to go back. My son can just lie there and rest. I will have time to accompany him after work.

"I'd rather not go back. I'll stay here and watch the fire. You watch the medicine. Make it quick and take it to them."

Nier sighed silently. Her aunt was a woman with her own ideas. Since she couldn't persuade her, she simply gave up.

"That's fine, having a helper saves me the hassle of going back and forth."

As he said that, he walked to the stove and looked at the medicine.

My aunt squatted beside the stove, adding firewood from time to time.

"I don't know what happened to the young man who dug the yellow mud. You said the road is slippery in the rain, and he has to go up and down the mountain. I hope there won't be any more accidents."

Nier looked at the mountain he went to. Although she couldn't see anything, she still wanted to take a look.

"Yeah, if I had known it was going to rain, I wouldn't have let him go. It's too dangerous. I hope everything will be safe."

The aunt followed Ni'er's gaze and said, "According to the time, he should be back soon. The rain just started falling, so he should have gone down the mountain by now."

Nier nodded. As a grown man, he should be able to move quickly. It would be much safer to stay away from the mountain when it rains.

"That's good, I hope nothing happens to anyone."

I vaguely seemed to see someone walking towards this side.

Because it was raining so heavily, I couldn't see clearly.

Nier thought she was dazzled, "Auntie, look, is there someone coming?"
