Chapter 194.
I thought the drizzle would not be heavy, but unexpectedly it actually rained heavily on the way. Village Chief Li regretted letting everyone go on the road in the rain.

But at this moment, there are no shops in front of the village, and there are fields on both sides of the road. There is not even a piece of open space, so I can only bite the bullet and continue on my way.

At any rate, everyone made preparations in advance. Those without umbrellas were all wearing coir raincoats and bamboo hats, and the old and the weak were all squeezed into the carriage, so they could hold on for a while.

In this way, another half an hour passed, and the rain has not decreased, but has a faint tendency to become bigger and bigger. If it continues, everyone will become drowned even if they have bamboo hats and coir raincoats.

"Village chief, there is a house in the northwest direction ahead." Li Dali and Li Xiaozhu, who were sent out by the village chief to find a place to stay first, came back from the rain, and Li Da wiped the rain on his face and said.

The increasingly heavy rain had no choice, and the village chief immediately called everyone to change lanes and rush to the houses in the northwest direction, hoping to find a place to shelter from the rain.

After driving a hundred meters, the group quickly changed lanes and ran towards the direction where the corner of the house was faintly exposed.

Everyone was very fast, and arrived at the house in less than a cup of tea, but found that it was a deserted village, and most of the houses had collapsed.

No wonder the road we turned here was covered with weeds. It turned out that no one walked at all, so the weeds grew so lush.

Although it is dilapidated and a deserted village, something is better than nothing, and it can barely hide from the rain.

There was no need for the village chief to speak, and everyone went to find a house that did not collapse to shelter from the rain.

The village must have been deserted for a long time, even some gates had locks, but with a slight push, the doors and locks collapsed together, splashing a cloud of dust in the rain.

The habitual Gulan chooses the same rain shelter as Old Man Li.

The door is still locked, but it is already rotten. Li Da gently pulled the chain belt nails off the door, and the door shook a few times by the way, but the throw stubbornly stopped, and the yellowed paper left on it also followed. The wind shakes.

Gu Lando glanced at it, but felt that the way the note was pasted was a bit strange. Although the paper was torn, the traces could still be seen that it was pasted crosswise on a pair of doors. It looked like the seal on the TV before.

Not only did Gu Lando glance at it, Xiang Yunjin was also taken aback by the paper marks on the door, thoughtful.

Then they drove the carriage and mule cart to the courtyard, only to find that the courtyard was slightly better preserved than what they saw outside.

Most of the side buildings on the left and right sides of the courtyard collapsed, but the main building is still well preserved, which should have something to do with the fact that it is a mixture of masonry and stone.

To be able to afford a masonry house, the conditions of the owner should be considered good in the village.

In addition to the collapsed side room, half of the main room's gate has collapsed, and the things in the room are faintly visible.

The women and children hurried into the main house, while the men were busy unloading the animals, and carefully rushed into the side house that was not yet collapsed and safe from the rain.

The car is placed directly in the yard, and there is a carport, so there is no need to worry about the things inside being wet by rain.

After placing the horse, Gulan followed Li Da and the others into the main room.

After entering, Gulan tidied herself up in a hurry. Even though the car roof protruded a bit, she was still wearing a bamboo hat and coir raincoat, and Gulan was almost completely soaked.

Fortunately, the clothes are still thick, and they are wide, so they don't wear out.

"Father" An An saw Gu Lan nimbly squeezed through the crowd, and reached out to hug his mother.

Gu Lan grabbed him, "Don't hug, Dad is all wet." Gu Lan pointed to the dripping clothes on his body.

The little guy stopped, looked at the wet clothes on his mother, and frowned.

"Father, change your clothes." An An said.

"Okay, be good, Dad, go change your clothes." Gu Lan smiled, and took the package that Xiang Yunjin helped to take down.

After looking around, Gulan went to the inner room with the half-closed door on the right, and Aunt Li and her daughters-in-law had already entered the room on the left.

As soon as she entered the room, it still had the choking smell and was covered with dust. Before she had time to look at the chills coming from her body, Gu Lan stood behind the door. This was the safest and most suitable place for her to change clothes.

Originally, my body was weak and my aunt hadn't left yet, and I was drenched in the cold, and my stomach hurt again.

The only thing left was the precious clothes inside. Looking at the dry clothes, the ancients felt a pity. It would be better if they could keep warm and prevent the cold.

I quickly changed into dry clothes, shoes, and put on a piece of warm cloth. The coldness on my body was finally dispelled. As for the aunt's towel, I can only wait until the dead of night and return to the space to change.

Feeling comfortable, Gu Lan was also in the mood to look at the room, only to find something weird in the room after looking around.

The furniture in the room is complete, but it is a bit messy, bedding and clothes are thrown everywhere, and now it is covered with dust.

That's why it's so strange. It is said that this village is empty. Looking at the old and collapsed houses, it should have been deserted for no less than many years.

If the whole village is in a drought, if it is not a disaster year, the whole village will be relocated.

But whether it is a disaster year or a migration, clothes and bedding are a must, and it is impossible to throw them everywhere.

This barren village is a bit suspicious!

But what does it matter, the left and right are already deserted, and they are just passing by.

Gu Lan shook his head to shake off the unnecessary thoughts in his head, and opened the door with his wet clothes.

As soon as he opened the door, he saw his son standing at the door. The little guy grinned when he saw her, which made Gulan feel wonderful unconsciously.

In another room, Li Da and the others also changed their wet clothes. Aunt Li and several daughters-in-law were also cleaning up the house, cleaning the dust on the surface of the house with the water leaking from the roof.

Otherwise, they wouldn't be able to stand all the time, they would be tired enough.

They are all used to work, and they are very fast, and the dust in the second room is almost cleaned by three times.

I'm afraid the rain won't stop today. It's a sure thing to spend the night here. If you don't clean it up, you won't be able to live at night.

When Gulan changed her clothes and came out to interact with her son, Mrs. Li, wearing a cloth scarf on her head, and several daughters-in-law were already waiting with brooms.

Then without waiting for Gulan to speak, the group of people who worked neatly went in and swept them away, keeping Gulan and the others at the door away from them while doing their work.

Although there are many places in the room where there is dew and rain, the dust is too thick, and it will still be dusty when cleaning.

Soon the mothers cleaned several rooms almost, and finally they had a place to lay their feet.

Gu Lan looked at Aunt Li embarrassedly, they were also going to rest here tonight, but they didn't help much.

Thinking about making more when cooking later, and adding two dishes to Aunt Li and the others.

By the time everyone settled down, it was almost noon, and the old man Li's family and most other families in the village had two meals a day most of the time, and everyone was used to it, so they didn't feel too hungry.

Gulan's side is not good, not to mention that Gulan had three meals a day in her previous life, and she didn't miss a single meal for her health when she came here. She is really hungry at the moment.
