Traveling through the famine, I stockpiled supplies like crazy

Chapter 354: Sudden Heavy Rain 2

"It's quite urgent. It doesn't even give people time to react. Isn't summer rain like that? It comes quickly and goes away quickly."

"Both of your clothes are wet. Go change your clothes quickly. Although it's already the end of April, it's still quite cold after the rain. Don't catch a cold." Grandpa Zhao urged.

"Okay, let's change now." Lu Chuan and Xu Han went back to the room together and changed into dry clothes.

When he came out again, one of them was holding a towel and kept wiping his hair.

"It's just this short distance and I'm soaked all over." Xu Han said with a resentful look on her face.

"Mom, look outside. It's raining so hard."

Because it was raining heavily outside, all the doors in the house were closed to prevent rain from entering the house.

Hearing this, Xu Han went to the window and looked out. She saw that the sky outside was dark and it looked like there was a big hole in the sky, with water leaking down continuously.

"The rain is too heavy, just like last year's flood." After reading it, Xu Han couldn't help but worry when she thought of last year's flood.

"Don't worry, the rain looks heavy, but it won't last long. Look, the sky over there is slowly getting brighter." The Taoist priest said, pointing outside.

Xu Han looked in the direction the Taoist priest pointed, and sure enough, the sky over there was slowly getting brighter.

They stayed in the house for a while, and the sound of rain outside became quieter and quieter.

After Lu Chuan opened the door, the sky outside had become completely bright.

After a while, the rain slowly stopped.

"The rain came quickly and left quickly. It stopped in just two quarters of an hour."

"I thought it would last until at least the evening, but I didn't expect it to stop so soon."

"Let's go out for a walk." Xu Han said to Lu Chuan.

"Okay, change your shoes before going out."

When I arrived outside the courtyard, I saw that the path was covered with traces of rain.

The paddy field was full of water. Lu Chuan took the shovel he had just picked up when he went out and dug a hole in the paddy field. The water flowed along the ditch into the stream.

"Although it only lasted for two quarters of an hour, it was a lot of rain. The water level in the creek has obviously risen a lot."

"Yes, it rained too fast just now, so there was naturally a lot of rain."

"Let's go forward and see if there is any water accumulation, so we can drain the water to prevent the water from being trapped and flooding things."

"The ditch was just cleaned a while ago, so there shouldn't be any blockages. Let's go to the orchard and take a look."

The two chatted as they walked forward, and after checking the entire area near their home, they returned home.

"I'm back. How's it outside? Is there any blockage?" The Taoist priest brought out a recliner, lay on it, drank tea, and said leisurely.

"It's not blocked. We just released some water from the paddy field." Lu Chuan replied.

Xu Han sat down, poured herself a cup of tea and said, "You are really enjoying yourself, the temperature after the rain is the most comfortable. It's not too cold or too hot, and even a little cool."

"Of course not. There's no sun right now. It's really a pleasure to lie here."

"The weather is so nice today, why don't we have a barbecue in the yard since it's too hot? We haven't had a barbecue this year."

Xu Han also became excited when she heard about the barbecue. She slapped her thigh and said, "Okay, I'll go prepare the ingredients."

"Take out the food and we'll prepare it together in the yard. We'll prepare more now because we'll have plenty of opportunities to barbecue in the summer."

"Okay, wait a minute, I'll go get the things out." After saying that, Xu Han went into the house. When she came out again, she had a lot of things in her hands.

Lu Chuan also moved out the chopping board from the kitchen, and the three of them took advantage of the cool breeze to prepare ingredients for tonight's barbecue in the yard.

"Mu'er loves roasted chicken legs, so I'll prepare some more." Xu Han said.

"Also marinate the lamb skewers more, everyone likes to eat them."

"Okay, what else do you want to eat?" Xu Han asked.

"Roasted eggplant is a must. This is indispensable." The Taoist priest continued.

"Okay, then we need to prepare some minced garlic. I'll soak the garlic so that I can peel it later."

"Soak more garlic. Every time we eat cold dishes, peeling dried garlic is the hardest." Lu Chuan shouted from behind.

"I see."

Garlic that has been soaked in water is easier to peel than dried garlic. It can be peeled off simply by using tongs or fingernails, and it does not have the thin skin that is the most difficult to peel.

The three of them worked hard for two hours and finally prepared everything that could be baked.

Grandpa Zhao and Mu'er had finished their teaching. When they walked out of the backyard, they saw Lu Chuan setting up a barbecue.

"Are we having barbecue today? I haven't had it in a long time."

"Yes, we're having a barbecue today. We'll also have the roasted chicken legs that Mu'er likes."

"Yeah, let's have barbecue." Upon hearing that they could have barbecue, Mu'er happily ran in the yard.

"Be careful, don't hit the table." Lu Chuan shouted.

When Ze'er saw his brother running around in the yard, he was also very excited and waving his arms and legs. Xu Han couldn't hold him.

"Put him on the mat. I'm really afraid that you can't hold him and you both will fall down." Lu Chuan said as he took a mat.

"Can't you just hope for me to get better?" Although Xu Han said this, she still put Ze'er down.

Ze'er, who is already five months old, has gained weight and can already sit down a little, but he cannot sit steadily by himself and needs someone to support him.

Lu Chuan brought over a few pillows and surrounded Ze'er with the pillows and a small quilt so that he could sit and play by himself.

"Tsk tsk tsk, this is a good method. We don't have to look after the children anymore." said the Taoist priest.

“We still have to watch, Ze’er is not as honest as Mu’er, he keeps moving and can’t stop at all.

You see, the dogs at home don’t dare to approach him, but he wants to reach the dogs. When he learns to crawl, these dogs probably won’t be able to hide from him anymore.”

"Peanut's hair has just grown back, so we can't let him growl around anymore." Lu Chuan continued.

Everyone laughed out loud upon hearing this.

Ze'er probably didn't understand that everyone was talking about him, so he also laughed.

Mu'er played in the yard for a while, then came out of the house with a lot of toys, and the two of them sat on the mat and played together.

But Ze'er was disobedient and always tried to snatch the toys from Mu'er's hands.

Mu'er was giving in to him at first, but Ze'er went even further. In the end, Mu'er got so angry that she took all the toys in his hands.
