midnight.

Zheng Yuan was sleeping soundly when he suddenly felt his face was wet. He reached out to touch it in a daze and immediately jumped out of bed.

Oh my god, it's raining and the roof is leaking.

Listening to the howling wind, lightning and thunder outside, it seems that the rain is not light. No wonder it is much hotter than usual during the day.

Zheng Yuan quickly pulled away the bedding under the leaking roof and checked if there were any other leaking points in the room. He found two or three more leaking places.

It's really raining heavily outside and drizzling inside.

After the inspection, Zheng Yuan immediately opened the door and ran out to find a few basins to catch the water. The room was full of mud, and if the water continued to leak like this, the whole room would be turned into mud.

When I opened the door, rain mixed with mud spots hit my face. A flash of lightning flashed in the sky, illuminating the entire yard, followed by a rumbling thunder.

Zheng Yuan was so scared that she quickly closed the door. She was really afraid that the thunder would strike her head in the next second due to the noise.

But it's okay, what if I can get through it directly? I just don't know what's going on with Amin, can I chop them both together?

Zheng Yuan was leaning against the door, lost in thought, when there was a knock on the door: "Mom! It's raining! Is your room leaking? I brought you some buckets."

It turned out that there was a leak in Dashu's house, so he came out to get a bucket and delivered a few to the other houses.

Zheng Yuan hurriedly opened the door: "Dashu, is your house leaking badly?"

Dashu wiped the rain off his face and said, "It's not bad, there's only one leak. We just re-paved our room when we got married at the beginning of the year. Erhe's room is also okay, there are only three leaks. But Sanni's room leaks more severely, there are five or six, and they are quite large."

"Mom, where is the leak in your roof? Let me put the bucket up for you first." Dashu said as he was about to go into the house.

Zheng Yuan hurriedly took the bucket and said, "No need. I'll take three. Go and help connect them to their rooms."

The big tree turned around and disappeared in the cascading rain, then went to the kitchen to get a bucket and a basin.

Zheng Yuan quickly moved the bed to a place where the water was not leaking and placed the bucket where the water was leaking. Her room was not so leaky as the leak was not very severe.

It's just a pity for Sanni. It looks like the house assigned to her is the most dilapidated one, and they didn't even think of repairing the roof for her.

Thinking of this, Zheng Yuan didn't care about the storm outside and went to Sanni's room in the rain.

My goodness, this is leaking like a water curtain cave.

With the help of the flashes of lightning, Sanni's small figure was constantly putting buckets and basins in the hole. However, the hole was really big and it was full in a short while, so she had to take it out and pour it out.

Zheng Yuan crawled in, carried the things in the house to a place where the water was barely leaking, and then he carried the water and poured it out.

Sanni looked at Zheng Yuan who was busy in the house, and her nose suddenly felt sore. She didn't cry even though the house was leaking so badly just now, but when she saw Zheng Yuan, she wanted to cry.

"Mom~" Sanni called her with a heavy nasal tone.

Zheng Yuan looked at her. There was no lightning at that moment and the dark environment prevented her from seeing the emotions in Sanni's eyes. She only heard a heavy nasal sound and thought that she had caught a cold from the rain.

Catching a cold at this time is no small matter.

"Sanni, stop it. Go sleep in my room tonight. You can't sleep in this room anymore. I'll hire someone to repair the roof tomorrow. Remember to change your wet clothes first when you go to my room, otherwise you'll catch a cold."

After saying that, she started carrying basins of water out. Sanni wiped the rain and tears that kept flowing down her face and did not go into the room.

She wants to be with her mother.

As they were carrying the bag, Dashu, Xu Huiniang, Erhe and Sizhu came to Sanni's room. Seeing this, they were also shocked. Why was Sanni's room leaking so badly?

Dashu and Erhe followed Zheng Yuan to pour out the overflowing rainwater, while Huiniang, Sizhu and Sanni moved the things in the house to places where the water would not leak. It was not easy to put things in the house when it was leaking so much, so it was better to move the things to another room. But it was raining heavily outside, and if they carried the things outside, they would probably get soaked.

Looking at the family busying around in her room, Sanni's tears, which she had just held back, welled up again.

This time, Xu Hui Niang noticed it.

Seeing that she kept rubbing it on her face, Xu Hui Niang vaguely guessed why, and hurriedly walked over to her and hugged Sanni gently.

In fact, as a girl, she could understand Sanni's feelings very well. When she saw Sanni's situation after marrying here, she thought of her own situation at home. She felt sorry for Sanni, but she was a new daughter-in-law and usually didn't dare to speak too much for Sanni.

Fortunately, now that the mother-in-law has changed, Sanni should be happier than when she was at home.

The others were busy carrying water and didn't notice what was happening here.

Zheng Yuan was very pleased to see the children helping Sanni. It seemed that he had some talent for education. Look, the previously indifferent brothers and sisters came to help their sister, which showed that the great principles he had taught before were not in vain.

This house was almost collapsed, so they went to other houses. The holes in other houses were not as big as this one, so they did not fill up so quickly.

The family went back and forth between several rooms, pouring water continuously.

Zheng Yuan couldn't help but worry about the situation at Duan Minmin's place. They had brought a lot of basins and buckets over in the past few days, and he didn't know if those left at home would be enough.

But it was raining too hard, and she didn't dare to go there rashly because of the thunder and lightning. She could only wait until the rain was lighter before going to take a look.

Thinking of the house over there, Zheng Yuan was really afraid that it would be washed away by the rain. He hoped that Amin and the others' house could hold up.

Duan Minmin's home.

There was nothing wrong with Duan Minmin's house, except for a small leak at the entrance, with water dripping down drop by drop.

As a result, when she heard the noise outside at first, she didn't pay any attention to it. She just wrapped herself tightly in the quilt, turned over and continued to sleep.

It was only when Tao'er and the others got up to collect water in a basin and knocked on her door that she woke up. When she got up to check, she found that there was only one dripping point in the room, and she put a small basin there to collect the water.

Tao'er's room was not working. The leak wasn't big, but it was leaking everywhere, leaving almost no place to step. There was also another empty room and the kitchen, which were also leaking. The four mothers hurriedly found all the tools they could use to collect water, even using the pot they had just brought back, and finally managed to collect all the leaks.

Duan Minmin cursed in her heart, this damn old woman, she is so strict in her own house, but she doesn't care about the lives of her daughters at all. I don't know how these three children spent the rainy days in the past.

The rain tonight is really heavy, as if it is trying to make up for the rain that didn't fall in the previous month, and it won't stop at all.

Both families kept pouring out the rain water in their houses until dawn, when the rain finally subsided a little.

The rain was still drizzling, but not as heavy as before, so there was no need to keep watching and pouring water.

After a busy night, everyone was exhausted and now they could finally take a nap.

Zheng Yuan told the children to change their wet clothes and dry their hair before going to bed, otherwise, with the current level of medical care, it would be difficult to deal with if one of them fell ill.

Sanni couldn't sleep in her room anymore, so Zheng Yuan asked her to sleep in her room. After Sanni changed her clothes, Zheng Yuan dried her hair carefully, and then the mother and daughter went to sleep.

Listening to Zheng Yuan's even breathing beside her, Sanni couldn't fall asleep and quietly leaned towards her.
