Chapter 317: spring rain
In the afternoon.
The temperature on Dandan Island suddenly dropped, and a cloud of mist surrounded the top of the island. From a distance, it looked like wearing a white hat.
After the fog appeared, not long after, a steady spring rain began to fall on the island.
Because of the rain, the village suddenly became busy. The fisherwomen who were mending their nets at the pier rushed home one by one.
"It's getting foggy."
"It's raining."
“Hurry back and collect your things.”
The spring rain is very thin and continuous.
But it was such a light rain that in less than a moment, the floor was instantly wet, and the eaves began to drip slowly.
“The dried squid I just dried is going to get moldy now.”
"If you are afraid of mold, quickly borrow the drying room from the village director. I used it last time. In a few hours, the effect was better than if you dried it for seven or eight days. It is very useful."
Those women who were fishing in the tidal flats and beaches all wore bamboo hats, but when they bent over to catch seafood, their clothes and trousers below the waist would still get wet from the rain.
After a while, they also rushed home to change clothes.
After all, there is no village doctor on Dandan Island. Once a person catches a fever or catches a cold, the consequences will be serious.
The people of Dandan Island both love and hate the rainy season.
What I love is that the rainy season can bring a lot of fresh water to Dandan Island. At this time, the well water is often full, and the vegetables they grow will grow very fast.
What I don’t like is.
They have few crops and almost all rely on fishing for a living. If the spring rains continue to fall, it will cause them a lot of trouble, especially those who want to dry fish.
It rained just a little while ago.
Li Duoyu moved the eel-roasting stove to the kitchen.
Chen Huiying quickly put away the clothes in the courtyard, still muttering: "Tutu's diapers are not drying well again, now they have to be dried again."
Li Duoyu looked at the clock in the room. It was already past four in the afternoon.
The eels have all been grilled, and the plates are neatly placed on the stove.
Zhou Xiaoying’s class is about to end.
When she went out today, it seemed that she didn’t bring an umbrella.
Li Duoyu put on a black umbrella, then got the folding umbrella from the cabinet and put it directly into his pocket.
Before going out, he took a look in the mirror. He found that the man in the mirror was much more handsome than when he first came to this world.
“Aniang, Xiaoying didn’t bring an umbrella, I’ll go pick her up.”
“Please help me keep an eye on those grilled eels, and don’t let the rats eat them.”
Looking at Li Duoyu hurriedly going out, Chen Huiying couldn't help but think of her youth.
At that time, she had just given birth to a baby, and the two of them were very poor and lived in a leaky house.
When the rainy season comes, the array of wooden barrels is placed in the house every day, and the positions are often changed several times a day.
At that time, after Lao Li was busy with the work of the brigade, she would go to the tidal flat to beg Xiaohai. As long as it rained, she would hold the straw hat and go to the tidal flat to find him.
Although life was very hard, the relationship between the two was very good. Unfortunately, as Lao Li got older, his personality became more and more eccentric. He only cared about his children and grandchildren, and could not listen to anything.
Chen Huiying couldn't help but patted little Tutu's head: "You bastard, be good, you know, you are really happy, and your parents have such a good relationship."
By the time Li Duoyu arrived at school, the school bell rang.
A group of primary school students wearing red scarves and carrying military green messenger bags rushed out in a swarm, not afraid of the light rain at all.
Many students directly covered their heads with their schoolbags, while some children who knew Li Duoyu smiled and said hello: "Hello, village chief."
Li Duoyu also smiled: "How about you too."
Little Fatty ran out with his schoolbag on his back, a smile on his face, and he looked very happy.
After seeing Li Duoyu at the door, he was surprised and said: "Uncle, why are you here?"
Li Duoyu was a little surprised to see Little Fatty so happy. During the normal days of school, he should have been looking sad.
“So happy, something good happened.”
Li Haoran grinned and said: "Hey, my aunt called me to the office today and gave me my winter vacation homework and asked me to do it again without criticizing it publicly." Li Duoyu was stunned for a moment. It seemed that he was such a "pillow guy". It is still somewhat effective, and Comrade Xiaoying is still considerate.
“Then you have to do your best and stop writing random answers. Do you know?”
"knew."
“Haoran, it’s raining. Come back with me.”
Little Fatty shook his head like a drum: "You must be here to pick up aunt, how dare I go with you."
After saying that, he ran back to the village with his classmates: "Xiaojun, wait for me."
Wait until the students are almost gone.
Two teachers came out holding an umbrella, both wearing white shirts and black skirts, one with a single ponytail and the other with double ponytails.
Arrived at the door.
Seeing the giggling Li Duoyu, Lin Shanshan, who had twin ponytails, said with envy and jealousy: "Tsk, tsk, tsk, I'll pick him up on the first day of school."
"You have been married for several years, and your relationship is still so good. For those who don't know, I thought your Xiaoying was pregnant again."
“Shanshan, what are you talking about?” Zhou Xiaoying rolled her eyes.
Lin Shanshan shook her head and sighed: "Hey, I won't be your light bulb. You take your time. I'll go back first."
After Lin Shanshan left.
Zhou Xiaoying looked at Li Duoyu with a smile. For a moment, her cheeks were slightly red and she didn't know what to say.
It can be used in the next second.
Li Duoyu pulled her directly into the umbrella and said with disgust: "It's raining, why are you standing there?"
Zhou Xiaoying was very embarrassed and couldn't help but look around: "It would be so embarrassing to be seen by students."
“Everyone is gone, where are the students?”
“There are also people who are on duty.”
“Those who are on duty are not that fast.”
“Didn’t you bring an extra umbrella? Give it to me quickly and I’ll just go by myself.”
Li Duoyu hummed: "It's one thing to wear it, but it's another thing to use it or not."
“Hold closer, your shoulder is wet.”
Zhou Xiaoying was angry and annoyed.
“Next time, you better not come to pick me up. Even if I don’t bring an umbrella, Shanshan will take me back.”
“You didn’t let me come, but I insisted on coming. In the future, I might even buy a motorcycle to pick you up.”
"You are sick. Our island is so big. Why did you buy a motorcycle? It is a waste of money."
“Bought it, specially picked up for you.”
Zhou Xiaoying frowned: "That would be an even greater waste of money. I can just walk back by myself."
“By the way, let’s go home quickly and I’ll treat you to eel.”
Zhou Xiaoying thought of the eels she saw this morning, and then couldn't help but glance at Li Duoyu.
He must have taken supplements, and now he is anxious to take her back, maybe that's what he wants.
“I won’t eat it if you want to eat it, that thing that looks a bit like a snake.”
“Believe me, your husband’s eel is delicious.”
Zhou Xiaoying's cheeks instantly turned as red as an apple: "I don't want it."
At this time, Principal Zhu, who was about to leave the school, just opened his umbrella and saw Li Duoyu and Zhou Xiaoying not far away. He frowned slightly and retracted.
In the past, he would have deliberately walked up to them, coughed twice, and reminded them that this would have a bad impact.
But things are different now. Li Duoyu is the village director and is familiar with many of the leaders above. If he does this again, he will be asking for trouble.
In addition, Chenjiacun has recently announced plans to merge schools. Although there is a high probability that he is the principal and the principal of Chenjiacun is the deputy.
But he was afraid of having a bad relationship with the other party, so during this period, he did not dare to arrange too much work for Zhou Xiaoying.
At that time, if there is an unexpected situation, he will have to ask Li Duoyu to help him run the relationship. (End of chapter)
