Don't panic in a famine, I live in the mountains with my golden finger

"So what's going on with you two? If you don't tell the truth, I'll beat you with a bamboo stick."

"Big sister, I was just careless..." Song Guozi touched her nose and brushed off the mud on her body. "We were just about to go play with brother Qingming, but we accidentally stepped into a mud pit. We were covered in yellow mud, so we went to the waterfall to wash."

"Okay, I'll trust you for now. Don't go to the river by yourself. Remember to tell me if you go."

"Go back and change your clothes, don't catch a cold."

Xuanyu and Song Guozi nodded obediently.

"Brother, why were you so careless to get your clothes wet? You almost got discovered by your elder sister."

"Xiaoduo, who made you so excited? You scared me and ran away."

"Humph, the water is so shallow and clear, how come we can't catch any? Dad and Big Sister both said we can't go to the river. There are more fish there. Otherwise, we can ask Big Sister to help us catch them."

"Why, don't you plan to give your elder sister and second sister a surprise?"

The two little kids were whispering to each other while changing their clothes.

"It's time to eat. Why did you two take so long to change your clothes? Hurry up and take them out to wash and hang them up later."

"Okay." The two kids answered in unison.

"Forget it, let's talk about it when Big Sister is free. We can't catch him anyway, so we might as well let Big Sister catch him."

"Meat, I want to eat meat."

Song Guozi looked at his younger brother and rolled his eyes, "You put your coat on inside out."

"Oh." Many people took them off immediately and adjusted themselves.

……

Xuyuan and Xuzhi took a break for a while and continued to make the ridges of the fields. The two kids continued to cut the grass. The weather in the afternoon seemed to be different from that in the morning.

The sky was gloomy at this moment and the air was still depressing.

The rain is coming, and it’s a good thing.

I wish for rain, preferably heavy rain, so that the fields can be filled with water, which will soften the mud and make it easier for the cows to plow the fields.

Without the sunlight, the speed of hoeing the ground was obviously much faster.

The reminder sound that a piece of wasteland had been reclaimed in Xuyuan's mind kept ringing.

After a while, a strong wind suddenly blew up, blowing the straw hat on his head off.

"Wow, it's so cool, blow it a little louder."

"Bigger. Bigger."

The two kids were waiting for the wind to get stronger. The cut grass was piled up next to them.

"These two silly brothers." Xu Zhi sighed helplessly when he saw the two little kids yelling nonsense.

Finally, when the sky became completely dark, the ridges of the fields were shoveled out, and the long-awaited rain finally came.

The weeds in the field were quickly tied together with vines, and the two little kids' specially made backpacks were also filled. They each carried the weeds and hurried home.

At this moment, Tian Tianbian was thinking like pouring water, it was growing bigger and bigger without stopping.

"It's raining heavily, big sister, run." Many people carrying small backpacks spread their short legs and ran forward.

"Brother, I run faster than you! Hahahaha"

Song Guozi saw many people passing by him and running forward happily. He was provoked and got so angry that he also ran forward.

"You two, watch the road carefully." Xu Zhi shouted loudly.

"Xiaozhi, let's go, let's go back and change our clothes." The clothes on both of them were now so wet that water could be wrung out of them.

When I was about to see the gate of my house, I saw a tall figure holding a big umbrella coming towards me from afar. I saw the person carrying Song Guozi on his back, holding a lot of things in his arms, and hurried into the house.

"Is that Brother Gu?" Xu Zhi blinked in confusion.

"right."

When the two sisters were about to reach the gate of the courtyard, the tall figure once again ran towards Xu Yuan and his partner quickly.

The rain above his head no longer dripped on his face. Gu Qinghan handed an umbrella to Xu Zhi and took the weeds from Xu Zhi's shoulder.

"Thank you, Brother Gu." Xu Zhi saw Brother Gu standing next to her sister with an umbrella. The height difference between them seemed to be a good match. For some reason, she felt that she shouldn't be here, so she quickly left with the umbrella.

"Gu Qinghan, why are you here?"

Xu Yuan felt that there was no need to use an umbrella at this time and just treated it as a shower.

"My mother asked me to bring something over, but I didn't see you guys were home, so I waited for a while. Who knew it would rain? Then I saw Guozi and Xiaoduo running over, so I had no choice but to open the door and get an umbrella. You won't blame me, will you?"

Gu Qinghan turned his head slightly to look at the woman beside him. At this time, Xu Yuan's hair was messy due to the rain, and her clothes were wet and stuck to her body.

"Ahem." Gu Qinghan took a glance and quickly turned his head away.

"It's okay. I don't have anything valuable at home anyway. I trust your character."

"Yeah." Gu Qinghan pursed his lips slightly.

The two of them entered the courtyard following the sound of rain and walking in the rain.

"Gu Qinghan, why did you bring so many fish again? We can't eat so much."

"There are too many nets, and we can't finish them at home. I won't take so much next time."

"Hey, your clothes are wet too. Go to Guozi's room and change." Xu Yuan took out the clothes that Xu's father had never worn before, pointed to the room, and asked Gu Qinghan to change into them.

There's no other way. My family is poor, and I can't bear to throw away my good clothes. I can sew and tidy them up myself and still wear them. It would be a waste to throw them away.

"You should change quickly too, to avoid catching a cold." Gu Qinghan warned Xu Yuan as he looked at his clothes that were still dripping with water.

When Xu Yuan changed his clothes and came out, Xu Zhi had already started to process the fish.

Gu Qinghan just happened to push the door open. When Xu Yuan saw what Gu Qinghan was wearing, which looked like an adult wearing children's clothes, he couldn't help but curl the corners of his lips.

Father Xu was not very tall and was a little thin, so Xu Yuan could wear the clothes by just slightly modifying their length. However, Gu Qinghan had long arms and legs, so his sleeves and pants were a bit shorter.

"Gu Qinghan, where are your wet clothes? I'll use the kitchen to dry them for you. It's still raining heavily now, so you can go back when the rain stops."

"No, I'll do it myself, you go do your thing."

Gu Qinghan went back to Guozi's room again, took out the wet clothes and walked towards the kitchen.

The specifications of Xuyuan's house are easy to recognize. Opposite Guozi's room is a kitchen, and next to the room on the right are many rooms. However, when Gu Qinghan just entered Guozi's room, he found that there was no bedding on the bed, and it seemed like no one lived in the house.

He knocked on the room on the right, and the door was opened by Guozi. "Brother Gu, you... have changed your clothes. Give them to me, I'll take them to the kitchen to dry them for you." Guozi saw that the clothes on Gu Qinghan were half too short, and didn't say anything.

"Guozi, is this your room? Why is there no bedding on your bed?"

Gu Qinghan asked, pointing at the room he walked out of.

"I'm not sleeping here now because my brother Ado is afraid of sleeping alone and wants me to accompany him..."

"No, it's obviously you who are scared." Many people heard the question and ran out in a hurry.

"...Xiaoduo, how are you wearing your clothes? Why are they on backwards?" Gu Qinghan looked at Xiaoduo, who suddenly appeared to explain himself, with messy clothes on his body and his coat on backwards. He had no choice but to hang the wet clothes on the hemp rope in the corridor and help Xiaoduo tidy up his clothes.
