He is Timely Rain, Bringing Peace and Comfort

Just then, the cellar door finally rang, and a crack opened with a ‘creak’.

Chen, the carpenter, showed a somewhat nervous face: “Hey, you two are really here!”

He saw that the two of them were covered in dust, and he hurriedly climbed down.

After confirming that they were fine, he said with lingering fear: “Duo Duo told me last time that the door should be repaired.
I thought it was okay and didn’t take it seriously… I’m really sorry for what happened.”

Unexpectedly, before Shi Yun could answer, An Huaixu got up and said, “It’s okay.”

Not only was it okay, but he also wanted to thank him for his good door.

Thinking this, An Huaixu reached out and pulled Shi Yun, who was about to follow Chen, the carpenter, to get the wine, and pressed him to stand under the brightest sunlight next to the wooden ladder.

“Stay here obediently.”

Shi Yun was stunned for a moment, looked at An Huaixu’s figure, and vaguely felt that something was different in his heart.

Before he could recognize what was different, An Huaixu came back one after another with Chen, the carpenter.

Chen, the carpenter, climbed up the wooden ladder first with the wine jar in his arms.

Shi Yun had been suffocating down here for a long time and followed closely behind.

At the first glance of seeing the sun, his nervous emotions finally dissipated, and he stretched comfortably.

Just as he was about to pull An Huaixu, he turned around and saw the person blowing out the oil lamp, and he was quickly swallowed by the darkness.

Shi Yun’s heart tightened immediately, and he wanted to go down again.

Unexpectedly, with the sound of steady footsteps, An Huaixu quickly appeared under the wooden ladder, looked up at him, and smiled lightly.

Shi Yun was stunned and couldn’t take his eyes away.

This kind of An Huaixu was so fascinating!

Following the small road back to the front yard, Shi Yun glanced at the table hanging in the house and realized that it was almost five o’clock.

Jiang Song was putting the finished dishes on the two wooden tables that were put together, looking at them, and happily greeted: “Little Shi is here, come over and help!”

When Shi Yun heard this, he raised his leg and went over.

An Huaixu quickly grabbed his arm, frowned and said, “Go wash yourself first.”

Then, Jiang Song saw Shi Yun obediently following An Huaixu away.

At first glance, the two of them were getting along as usual, but he inexplicably felt a strange feeling for a moment.

Shi Yun and An Huaixu quickly came back one after another.

Jiang Song made a space for Shi Yun next to him, and when he saw this, he quickly patted the chair: “Little Shi, come…”

Before he could finish speaking, An Huaixu said, “Sit there, An Shuqi doesn’t know how to use chopsticks.”

When Shi Yun met the children, he almost responded to every call, and immediately turned his steps and followed An Huaixu again.

Jiang Song: “…”

[It’s happening again, so funny!]

[How did the atmosphere between these two people become more wrong after they left for a while?
Um… Let’s interview Unfamiliar Brother, do you have any clues?]

[Before Unfamiliar Brother spoke, he glanced at Jiang Song.
He must know what he’s going to do!]

[I’ve been a fan of An Huaixu for a year.
I thought he was a straightforward person, but I didn’t expect this kid to be a scheming person!]

[I didn’t feel anything at first, but this open and secret fight, I’m directly falling into the pit, food, food!]

Chen, the carpenter, happily carried a pile of clean cups and a bottle of apricot paste and put them on the table.

While praising An Huaixu’s cooking skills, he opened the apricot paste, brewed it into apricot juice, and distributed it to a group of children who were staring at it eagerly.

The local children were very happy to see this, and even Shi Yun said curiously: “Uncle Chen, are you really using the New Year’s set?”

Chen, the carpenter, laughed: “It’s good as long as you’re happy eating it. Don’t distinguish between this and that!”

Jiang Song picked up the cup curiously and smelled it: “What is this?”

Chen, the carpenter, sat next to him and introduced proudly: “Apricot paste, it’s considered a good thing here!

Every year when the apricots are ripe, we sell as much as we can, and if we can’t sell them, we make them into this thing.

It’s a few dollars a bottle, and the business is still pretty good.”

He gave Chen Duo Duo, who had finished drinking it in a few mouthfuls, some more, and then said: “…In the end, every family will keep one or two bottles to eat during the New Year.”

“Are there only apricot trees planted on our mountains?”

“No, there are also apples!”

Chen, the carpenter, remembered something: “Speaking of which, it’s almost time to pick apples.”

Shi Yun was giving An Shuqi vegetables while adding: “It’s probably these few days.

I saw the village chief running to the mountains.”

An Shuqi was standing between Shi Yun’s legs, lying on the table, holding a small bowl, shaking his head and eating happily.

An Huaixu didn’t want to care about him at first, but he couldn’t bear it after a while and clicked his tongue to warn him.

An Shuqi shrank in Shi Yun’s direction and immediately became honest.

Shi Yun touched his head and said indulgently: “Tell the teacher what Shuqi likes to eat, and the teacher will give you vegetables.”

An Shuqi’s eyes lit up and pointed at the Wensi Tofu: “More!”

Shi Yun picked up his small bowl, gave him some more with a spoon, and then gave each of the other children who were staring at it eagerly.

Jiang Nianyu said sweetly: “Thank you, Teacher Xiao Shi~”

Shi Yun tilted his head and replied gently in the same way: “Nianyu is so sensible, you’re welcome~”

Chen, the carpenter, and Jiang Song didn’t know how they started talking about wine.

“Hey, Teacher Jiang, you have good taste. This wine is my favourite thing in this life!”

When Chen Duo Duo heard this, she raised her small face unhappily: “Dad, don’t you like me and Mom the most?!”

Chen, the carpenter, quickly tsk tsk tsl, and stroked Chen Duo Duo’s braids: “Dad said the wrong thing!”

Chen Duo Duo snorted in satisfaction, cherished and sipped the apricot juice, and became quiet.

She didn’t realize that An Huaixu didn’t know what he had discovered on the opposite corner and was staring at her intently.

Shi Yun fed An Shuqi, looked at Chen, the carpenter, Chen Duo Duo, and An Huaixu, and almost immediately understood what An Huaixu was thinking.

He quietly moved the chair, turned his body sideways, and said in a voice that only the two of them could hear: “Duo Duo’s mother passed away from illness at the beginning of the year.

Duo Duo is very sad.

Even after so long, she will still be unhappy when she is mentioned.”

An Huaixu lowered his head to make it easier to hear him.

Shi Yun sighed:

“At that time, Uncle Chen kept saying that he would earn more money and take Aunt Chen to a big city for treatment, but he didn’t expect that man’s plans are not as good as God’s.

It’s lucky that he didn’t lose money in the past two years, not to mention earning it.”

An Huaixu: “Is business bad?”

Shi Yun nodded: “Yes, I don’t know if the apples can be sold for a good price in a while, otherwise the villagers will suffer when it gets cold.”

An Huaixu seemed to have already imagined that little Shi Yun was shrinking in the ice and snow, shaking a broken bowl, and pitifully said to the people passing by: “Sir, please give me some money… Sister, please give me something to eat…”

Finally, little Shi Yun shivered and couldn’t hold on any longer and froze to death with an ‘Ow’.

An Huaixu woke up as if from a dream and became serious unconsciously.

[Hey, you’re eating, what are you two whispering and talking about love?
Let me hear it!]

[An Huaixu’s eyebrows are so wrinkled that he can kill a fly, so funny!]

[An Huaixu and Shi Yun must have noticed that Duo Duo was a little unhappy.
I’m also from a single-parent family, so I can understand this feeling!]

Chen, the carpenter, poured a cup for Jiang Song: “Come, have a taste!”

After saying that, he handed the other cup to Shi Yun: “Xiao Shi, I watched you grow up.

I’m relieved to have Duo Duo with you. I’ll have to trouble you more in the future!”

Shi Yun wanted to refuse, but he had already said so much, so he would be sorry for this scene if he didn’t take a sip.

Unexpectedly, An Huaixu took the glass of wine.

“Uncle Chen, he can’t hold his liquor well. I’ll drink this cup with you.”

Jiang Song glanced at Shi Yun and An Huaixu strangely again and quickly raised his glass: “Come on, let’s all have a toast together!”

An Shuqi was eating happily.

When he heard that he was going to leave, he shook his small head, hugged Shi Yun, and said aggrievedly: “Don’t go!”

“Okay, okay, we won’t go.”

Everyone laughed!

[Wait, how do you know Teacher Shi can’t hold his liquor, have you two drunk in private??]

[That sister who just floated by, you’re right, Unfamiliar Brother only said that they’re not familiar, but he never denied that they’ve drunk, my nostrils are tingling from overthinking!]

[I’m shipping An Shi, I want to be the happiest girl in the world.]

[Unfamiliar Brother is really not pretending at all!]

After eating, the sun had already set halfway, and the bright red gradually turned into a light pink, covering half the sky and reflecting the village.

Shi Yun was playing with the children in the yard, and glanced at a lonely little figure sitting on the steps at the entrance of the yard.

It was Duo Duo.

Shi Yun walked over and called her softly, “Duo Duo, why don’t you come and play with everyone?”

Chen Duo Duo hugged the apricot paste jar, her eyes a little red: “Mom liked to drink apricot juice the most, I miss Mom.”

Shi Yun moved closer and noticed that Duo Duo was holding that bottle of apricot paste in her hand.

He sat next to Duo Duo, putting his arm around her: “Mom is always by your side, maybe she’s a gust of wind, a ray of sunset, a star, a butterfly, as long as you feel it carefully, Mom’s love is everywhere.”

Just then, a breeze blew across Chen Duo Duo’s cheek, as gentle as a mother’s touch.

Chen Duo Duo leaned against Shi Yun’s chest and silently shed tears.

After crying for a while, Chen Duo Duo’s emotions quickly changed.

Chen, the carpenter, walked out holding a box, and when he saw Shi Yun and Chen Duo Duo sitting at the door, he shouted in incomprehension, “What are you two doing, come over here!”

Shi Yun carefully wiped Chen Duo Duo’s face and pulled her over.

“There are ants moving house over there, Duo Duo and I are watching which ant is the strongest.”

Lucky was interested when he heard this, and ran over with a ‘pat pat pat’.

Chen, the carpenter, looked at Chen Duo Duo’s expression and asked in concern, “What’s wrong?”

Chen Duo Duo stubbornly tugged at the corners of her mouth and shook her head, “Dad, I’m fine.”

Chen, the carpenter, didn’t suspect anything and breathed a sigh of relief, “It’s good if you’re okay, it’s good if you’re okay.”

He put his arm around Chen Duo Duo’s shoulder and smiled at everyone again, “After working for a long time, congratulations on completing the task, this is my little thank you gift.”

Jiang Song opened the box and found a pile of wooden musical instruments and seeds that he couldn’t recognize.

“These are water spinach seeds, plant them, and they’ll usually be ripe in about a month and a half, our children love to eat this!”

After Chen, the carpenter, finished speaking, he took out another small box from behind him, “I don’t have any other skills besides working with wood, this is what I rushed to make this afternoon, I hope you won’t dislike it.”

Jiang Song took it over and found that Chen, the carpenter, had carved them into vivid little wooden figures!

Although not detailed, Chen, the carpenter, grasped the characteristics very accurately, and you could almost tell who was who at a glance!

Jiang Song picked it up in surprise and gave the camera a close-up shot intentionally or unintentionally, “It’s so beautiful, I will definitely cherish it!”

An Huaixu noticed Jiang Song’s intention, and also took out his own, “Yeah, not bad, thank you.”

[An’s certification!]

[How can I contact Chen, the carpenter, I want to customize a wooden figure of my grandma!]

[Nothing else to say, just put the link up!]

After waving goodbye to Chen, the carpenter, and Chen Duo Duo, Jiang Song and An Huaixu took up the rope again and began the journey of sending the children home.

Shi Yun consciously stood next to the cameraman, rarely playing with his phone, writing something stroke by stroke.

Only after a light ‘shua’ sound did he put away his phone and walk attentively.

At the same time, An Huaixu’s phone, who had just withdrawn his gaze, vibrated, and he took it out to take a look:
