Chapter 60: Leaking rain and power outage

After Ye Yaodong finished showering, he didn't wear clothes either, just sat by the window in his shorts.

"Finished picking? Let me see."

It was rare for him to be so gentle and patient to help her pick sand grains.

Lin Xiuqing looked at his serious appearance, feeling that her heart, which had always remained calm, had ripples again.

"Hiss~"

"Is it very painful? I'll be lighter,......" he said, and even blew two breaths gently before continuing to pick the sand grains in her palm.

If this is not picked clean, it will still fester after the wound scabs.

After a while, he checked and said: "It should be clean. Don't do much work these two days. It's typhoon weather anyway, so there's nothing to do. Roll up your pant legs, let me see your knees."

Lin Xiuqing did as she was told, bent her knees and stretched them out in front of him......

The two were quiet, one focused, and the room was filled with a warm atmosphere.

Suddenly, a super loud door-opening sound rang out!

"Father, Mother, time to eat......"

The door was pushed open heavily and hit the wall, scaring the two of them. Ye Yaodong's hand holding the needle shook, almost inserting it into the meat.

He was furious and wanted to scold a few words, when he heard the little brat shouting blindly, "Ah, Father is shameful, naked and hugging Mother's feet......"

"Damn, this brat! Ye Chenghu, what nonsense are you talking about!"

Ye Yaodong was embarrassed and angry, rushed out to pick up his eldest son, and only slapped his butt twice before being stopped by the old woman.

"Why beat him, children say whatever they see, what does he understand?"

Sweat~ the old woman said this......

With so many people, he felt it was necessary for him to explain a sentence, otherwise everyone would really think he was that impatient.

"A-Qing fell outside before, her knees and hands were scraped and sand got in. I took a needle to pick it out for her. This brat has no gate on his mouth." He glared at his eldest son again before returning to the room to put on clothes.

Ye Chenghu touched his butt a bit aggrieved, "I didn't say wrong either......"

Lin Xiuqing also came out a bit embarrassed, and also glared at her eldest son, "Shut up, go eat quickly! Where do children get so many words?"

He curled his lips and followed Grandma to the table.

The adults in the family, except for Ye Huimei, were all people who had come over. Who didn't know about that little thing between husband and wife? Regardless of whether what Ye Chenghu shouted was true or not, they just pretended not to know, still calmly serving rice and picking up vegetables.

After Ye Yaodong sat at the table and saw the bowl of stir-fried coconut snail meat, his appetite opened. He took a piece first, hmm~ fresh, fragrant, spicy, crisp, sweet~ delicious!

He also gave his wife a piece, and the couple looked at each other and smiled tacitly.

As a result, before lunch was finished, it was gray outside. Those who didn't know would think it was already evening.

"Turn on the light! It's too dark!"

After eating, everyone couldn't go out and could only move around at home. Everyone heard the sound of wind whistling outside, and their hearts were not very bottomed. They didn't know how long this typhoon would last.

Originally, they all thought it was just a small typhoon, and they shouldn't be deeply affected here, but they didn't expect the typhoon's trajectory to come directly toward them.

Fortunately, there were vegetables in the vegetable patch in the backyard, and there were also pickled fish and dried fish at home, so they were not afraid of having nothing to eat even if they didn't go out for a few days.

Ye Yaodong lay on the bed bored, preparing to take a nap, when he suddenly felt water droplets dripping on his stomach. He looked up at the mosquito net on his head, and there were small water droplets condensed there.

"Leaking?"

The rain outside was also getting bigger, and the speed of the water droplets falling was also faster. Drip, drip, drip, he quickly got up and prepared to go to the main room to get a basin to catch the water.

Suddenly, the light in the main room also went out. The children didn't understand, and shouted happily, "Ah, power outage~ power outage~"

"Stop shouting!"

Ye Mu took out the candles that had been prepared long ago and lit them. Only then was there a bit of light in the room. She tilted the candles, dripped the oil onto the table, and then fixed the candles on it.

They have many typhoons every year here, and everyone is used to power outages whenever there is a typhoon.

Ye Mu lit several candles in a row, "You each take one to the room and light it, so it won't be too dark."

Only then did Ye Yaodong speak: "The room is leaking rain, the bed board is wet, you all go back to the room to check, take a basin to catch it, otherwise you won't be able to sleep at night."

"Your bed is leaking rain, if it's not easy to sleep at night, then carry the children over and sleep with us."

He nodded.

There is a basin on the bed, and the family of four is indeed not easy to lie down.

As a result, it wasn't just one place on the bed that was leaking rain, even the table and cabinet in the room were dripping with rainwater. Ye Yaodong had no choice but to get up again to get a basin, but there were no more basins. Everyone's room was leaking water, so he had to take a soup bowl to catch it.

Don't care about the raindrops falling on the ground, it's a gray soil floor anyway, and it doesn't matter if it flows.

Old houses are like this now. As long as it rains heavily, every household will have water leaking.

Ye Yaodong lay down again, pillowing his hands behind his head, listening to the sound of raindrops falling into the basin. He couldn't sleep either. It was only afternoon now, and it was a bit difficult to wait until dawn tomorrow, so he had to go out to the main room to see what everyone was doing.

Listening to the movement, several children ran to his mother's room to play. He said to Lin Xiuqing who was still weaving the net: "Don't weave, the light is not good, it hurts the eyes."

Ye Eldest Sister-in-law teased: "Yaodong is getting more and more caring, helping you pick sand grains is enough, and he also feels sorry for you doing the net and hurting your eyes."

Lin Xiuqing was a bit embarrassed by her teasing, "Hehe~ it's not very dark, I can still see."

It doesn't matter if you don't listen.

Ye Yaopeng sat at the table supporting his chin boredly. Being used to working, suddenly being idle made him a bit uncomfortable. He suggested: "Sitting idly is quite boring, why don't we three brothers play cards? Light a few more candles."

"Sure, ask Second Brother if he wants to play?"

"He's in the room, I'll go call him."

The three of them had just played two rounds when Ye Fu also asked to join them with itchy hands.

As a result, Ye Yaodong's furious voice kept ringing in the room, "Damn, Father, can you play? We are playing as partners, I am your partner, why did you play 6 for Eldest Brother to pass?"

"I have 33467 in my hand, if I don't play 6, what should I play?"

"Grass, what a rotten card, then you can play a pair, let me take it, and go first!"

"How do I know what cards you have in your hand?"

Ye Yaodong scolded and scolded, always nagging that his father was a pig teammate......

Ye Fu was also annoyed, "Change people, change people, I don't want to be a partner with you either!"

Then all afternoon, Ye Fu kept changing partners. After the third son changed, he changed to the eldest, and finally changed to be a partner with the second. The second didn't dislike his hand being smelly and cards being rotten......

But Ye Second Sister-in-law was anxious. Being a partner with Father was losing money all the time......

Finally, after playing all afternoon, of course, Ye Yaodong and Ye Eldest won money.

Ye Yaodong shook the small bills in his hand and handed them to Lin Xiuqing, "Keep it well, money is coming in again!"

Lin Xiuqing took it with a smile.

Ye Fu nagged unwillingly: "Continue after eating!"

"Continue your head, continue, if you have time, weave a few more bamboo flat baskets for me, not enough to dry dried fish......" Ye Mu scolded a few words, and Ye Fu didn't dare to say a word. ===== CHAPTER 61 =====
