Chapter 205 It’s hard to walk in the rain at night
Qin's mother closed the door and her legs became weak.
Yaoyao asked: "What's wrong?"
"The kidnappers are here again, as if they are targeting our family," Qin's mother said.
Yaoyao frowned, "Didn't I say I left, why did I come back?"
"Wow--" the child's cry suddenly sounded.
Then another smaller cry followed, followed by a groan.
The man in black, who had not gone far, had extraordinary hearing. Hearing the child's cry, he looked back...
…
At night, a heavy rain suddenly came.
Qin's mother quickly collected all the clothes she had dried during the day and put them in the house to disperse the moisture.
After Mu Run fed the two children, she came over to help.
"Don't do anything. Although you are already in your confinement, you should avoid touching these cold things to prevent the milk from getting cold. Huanhuan and Tuantuan will get upset if they eat it."
"It's okay, you can't be so squeamish."
"Then you have to pay attention. After this rain passes, I will dig up the open space in the backyard and plant some vegetables or something. It is a pity to have such a large area unused."
"Okay, whatever mom wants to do," Mu Run responded.

Hedao Village, village entrance.
Qiao Dongzi and Yang Yang braved the wind and rain to help an old man push a bullock cart...
It was raining and the road was slippery. A bullock cart got stuck in a mud pit and could not get out.
Qiao Dongzi wanted to just leave as if he didn't see him, but Yang Yang insisted on staying to help.
So this scene happened.
"One, two, three, let's go -" With the slogan, the bullock cart finally came out of the mud pit.
The old man thanked Qiao Dongzi and Yang Yang and asked them where they were going. When he learned that they were going to Jingyue County, he asked them to take shelter from the rain at his house. It would not be too late to continue on their way after the rain stopped.
Yang Yang agreed without even looking at Qiao Dongzi who was about to refuse.
The old house where the old man lives in the village is in shabby surroundings. After the rain, there is not even a good place to step down.
Fortunately, there was an ox cart, otherwise Qiao Dongzi and Yang Yang would have had to use Qinggong to fly over.
The old man lives with his grandson, and there is no one else at home.
The grandson's name is Ding Jian. He is nine years old and is not afraid of life. He is very sensible and helps Qiao Dongzi and Yang Yang get clean clothes and clean shoes.
Although they are a bit unfitting, they are still more comfortable than being stuck in mud and water.
While eating the mixed noodle soup made by Lao Dingtou, Qiao Dongzi asked: "Old man, where is your son?"
"I went out to do business, got sick and died, and the body was not even brought back." Old Dingtou sighed, "My daughter-in-law felt that her life was not going well, so she went back to her parents' home, and she probably won't come back again."
Qiao Dongzi looked at Ding Jian, who was weaving a basket, "Don't you miss your mother?"
"I think." Ding Jian replied.
"But she left you."
The little hand weaving the basket stopped, then dug out a folder made of rattan from a pile of rattan, opened the folder, and found several books inside.
After watching it for a while, I started weaving baskets again.
Qiao Dongzi was a little curious, so he reached out to pick up the book and read it.
Who would have thought that Ding Jian immediately put it away like a treasure and wouldn't show it to him.
Old Dingtou said: "That was given to him by Mr. Mu. Even I can't touch it."
"Mr. Mu?" Yang Yang was curious.
"Mr. Mu is a female gentleman. She taught in the village for free a few years ago. My grandson always went there and got to know a lot of words. Later, Mr. Mu got pregnant and went to the city and never came back. However,
During the Chinese New Year, she still remembered these children and gave them a lot of food and books."
