Chapter 7: House seemingly endless rain
Chapter 7 The house leaked and it rained all night
House seemingly endless rain! Mo Yan and others had just saved their lives, but not long after, it started to rain heavily, and there was no shelter nearby. They had to rush on the road in the rain, hoping to find a place to shelter as soon as possible.
After driving for nearly an hour, the four embarrassed people finally found a small cave. Although it was a small cave, it was just that it was leeward from the wind. There was a huge boulder protruding from the top of the head, and the two sides were blocked by rocks, which barely blocked the rain.
Hungry and struggling to walk in the rain, Mo Yan felt very uncomfortable. She felt so weak that she sat on the ground and gasped. The wet clothes clung to the body and were very uncomfortable. However, the clothes in the bag were soaked and there was no need to change. Fortunately, it was summer, so I didn't feel very cold.
Watching the patter of rain dripping down the edge of the boulder, Mo Yan, who was so hungry and dizzy, couldn't help but reach out and take a handful. Regardless of whether it was clean or not, she lowered her head and took a sip. Except for the slight muddy smell, It even has a hint of sweetness.
After a handful of water was poured down, Mo Yan felt that her stomach felt more comfortable. She couldn't help but take a few more handfuls and drank them all.
Mo Xin and Mo Zhen have also been hungry for a long time. Seeing their sister like this, they also picked up the rainwater and drank it. Mo Qingze opened his mouth, but couldn't say a word to dissuade her.
I originally thought that picking up a rabbit would give the children a good meal, but I didnt know that they would encounter those gangsters. The pot of freshly stewed rabbit meat was also knocked over during the fight. After not eating for a whole day, let alone a child, he could barely survive as an adult.
The rain has been falling for more than an hour, showing no signs of stopping. The bursts of thunder ringing in his ears seemed to be mocking his incompetence. Mo Qingze looked at the rain curtain and felt despair in his heart. If he had known there would be a severe drought this year, he should have taken his children north when there was a severe flood last year. Now that Yongcheng cannot go, and the capital is too far away, is God really going to kill their family's life?
After drinking a few handfuls of rainwater, my stomach finally felt less uncomfortable. When I saw the two younger ones still wanted to drink, I quickly stopped them. There is no air pollution in this time and space, and the rainwater is not that dirty, but it is raw water after all, and drinking too much is not good for the body.
Mo Xin and Mo Zhen are both sensible. Although they still want to drink water to quell their hunger, they dare not disobey their sister.
That kind of hungry look for food made Mo Yan couldn't bear to look away, but she happened to see the despair on Mo Qingze's face. She was startled, thought about it, and finally said what she was thinking: "D-Dad, let's go to the capital!"
The name "Dad" made Mo Yan's tongue twist and turn, but since she inherited this body, she should adapt to her new identity.
Mo Qingze was stunned for a moment before he understood what his eldest daughter meant. His face was filled with sadness: "Yan'er, do you know how far it is from here to the capital?"
Looking at Mo Qingze like this, Mo Yan was a little stunned. In the memory of the original owner, Mo Qingze has always been the object of admiration by his children. He is not only literate and polite, but also the only scholar in Mojia Village. He is also proficient in music, chess, calligraphy and painting, and uses his talents to earn money and maintain the family's livelihood... In the heart of his daughter , Mo Qingzes father is almost omnipotent.
But even such an omnipotent father was devastated by this natural and man-made disaster.
Rather than worrying that his family would not be able to reach the capital, he was more worried that the children would not be able to bear it and would starve to death one by one. He is the head of the family and carries all the hopes of the children. You can imagine how depressed and depressed he is!
"Dad, if you don't try, how do you know we can't reach the capital?" Mo Yan asked back, leaving Mo Qingze speechless and confused.
Mo Yan did not disturb Mo Qingze, who was deep in thought. She had the space to believe that they could reach the capital, but this secret could not be revealed.
Mo Qingze is not an indecisive person. He just worried too much before and fell into confusion. Now he was awakened by Mo Yan's words. He couldn't help but think: There is no way out, so why be afraid of moving forward?
"Yan'er is right, dad had a different idea and agreed to go to the capital!"
Mo Qingze touched Mo Yan's head happily. His daughter has grown up and her temperament has become strong. Very good, very good!
Mo Yan breathed a sigh of relief, it was finally decided to go to the capital.
The rain continued until night. They were worried that the two little ones would fall ill if they were exposed to the rain during the day. Mo Yan and Mo Qingze held Mo Zhen and Mo Xin tightly in their arms respectively, not daring to fall asleep. Fortunately, the rain stopped at midnight, and the two little guys were lucky enough not to catch cold or get sick.
The bright sunshine shines on the earth again, and the air after the rain also exudes a fresh smell. The trees that were previously yellow and wilted due to drought seem to be alive, and the mood is much better.
The drought here is far less severe than in Lingnan. There was another heavy rain last night, which somewhat eased the situation.
The children were tortured very much yesterday, so Mo Qingze was not in a hurry. He planned to go out for a walk to see if he could find something to eat. If he went hungry, he might faint on the road.
Just as he was about to go out, Mo Xin and Mo Zhen got up from the ground and grabbed his clothes tightly. Mo Zhen said in a tearful voice: "Dad, Zhen'er is afraid and wants to come with dad!"
Mo Qingze looked at his son and daughter in a dilemma. If he took them with him, he was worried that they would get hurt if they were left unattended.
When Mo Yan came back from drying her wet clothes, she saw two little ones, one on each side, holding hands like koalas. When Mo Qingze said that he was looking for something to eat, he couldn't help but feel something in his heart: "Dad, still... Let me go, Xin'er and Zhen'er are frightened, you should watch over them!"
Mo Qingze is not worried about his eldest daughter going out alone, but he is also worried about the two younger ones...
Mo Yan saw his dilemma and smiled: "Dad, I won't go far. I will just wander around here. If I can't find anything to eat, I will come back as soon as possible."
Remembering that his eldest daughter has always been sensible and aware of propriety, Mo Qingze stopped talking and gave her a few careful instructions before letting her leave.
