Chapter 016 Helping the Rain The two little ones were digging crickets in the yard and had a great time playing. They checked all the valuables in the house. There was a broken wooden bed and a big wooden box in the inner room, and the same room outside. A bed, a table, a few stools.In the inner room is Ling Wensheng and his wife living with the fourth child, and in the outer room is Ling Tianyang with the second and third children, and the place to eat is also here.When it rains, the simple kitchen built by Ling Wensheng outside cannot be used, and the cooking is done in the outhouse.Fortunately, the second child and the third child are still young, otherwise Ling Tianyang really doesn't know how to live with them.

After these days lasted for five days, Bajiao Nest finally ushered in the first life-saving rain. The rain was very heavy, and it continued to fall from morning to night.The crackling raindrops splashed a layer of gray dust on the dry land, and the plantain nest was boiling. Ling Tianyang's family was also very happy. Wang looked at the five father and son in the outer room and shook his head.

"Yangyang, go to the house to see if there is any rain leakage, and quickly catch something. His father, it's such a strong wind, you go and see our kitchen, and move all the guys into the house, so as not to get wet from the rain .”

"That's right! Look at my memory, second and third child, you follow your sister to the house and I'll go to the kitchen. Yangyang, you go upstairs and have a look, call dad when it's dangerous, you know? "

Ling Wensheng divided the Ling family's mud-walled house into two floors. The upper floor was used to store food, and the lower floor was for people to live in. Therefore, the two adults in their room almost walked with their heads down.

Climbing up the stairs, the upper floor was very empty, only a pile of small yams piled up in the corner of the back room, it was raining heavily, and it was raining lightly in their room, Ling Tianyang told the second child to quickly get the pots and pans, Soon, the upper floor was filled with these things, and the sound of dripping rain was endless.

Three days after the rain stopped, the Tengjiang River in front of them really looked like a river this time. The rolling river water rolled up the dregs on both sides of the river, just like the water of the Yellow River.

At this time, Ling Tianyang took his second child up the mountain to cut firewood again. The green creek a few days ago has now turned into a gray river. Although it has rained enough, the crops have already dried up. Ling Wensheng and Wang The hair on my head has turned gray rapidly, and seeing that the autumn tax is about to be paid again, I really don't know what to do.Several families in the village were already preparing to sell their children. This incident made Ling Tianyang panic for a few days. When he saw Ling Wensheng and his wife at home, Ling Tianyang felt guilty, as if he had dragged them down, so he had to take the second child with him. Going up the mountain to chop firewood, hoping to make some money, so as not to sell her.

"Second, shall we go to the pine forest today?"

Walking to the fork in the road, Ling Tianyang looked at the pine forest and asked.They had run almost all over Rigg Hill, and there was nothing to sell except stunted bushes and weeds.

The second child raised his head and looked at his sister. He knew what her sister was thinking. The family was in trouble. Last night he heard his father and mother discussing to borrow some money, but their family was very poor. Which relative would lend them money? He was also afraid that there was really nothing he could do. His father and mother would sell his sister.

"it is good!"

Hearing the second child's answer, Ling Tianyang didn't react immediately, and let out a silly "ah", the second child pursed his mouth, lifted his foot and walked towards the pine forest road.

"Hey, wait for me!" Seeing that the second child had left, Ling Tianyang quickly caught up with him.
