Chapter 389 Moon
After October, the weather cooled down rapidly.
When it was cold last month, people just put on an extra coat at most, but now they have to wear a cotton jacket when going out.
Lin Jiaojiao sighed as she looked at the heavy rain outside. It had been raining for three days now, getting heavier day by day. She didn't know if it would stop tomorrow.
Otherwise, I don’t know whether the hundred-day banquet tomorrow can be held.
She nodded and looked at the three babies in the stroller. Lin Lexing might have fallen asleep again without realizing it because she heard the rhythmic sound of rain outside.
The other two looked curiously at the wooden wind chimes hanging above their faces, babbling and wanting to reach out and grab them.
These were carved by Lin Chun, and they are all simple animal shapes. By the way, he also asked Tongfu to learn along the way, creating opportunities for the two of them.
Tongfu has made a lot of progress this time compared to last time. At least the two of them have a tacit understanding with each other. Whenever Lin Chun needs any tools for the next step in carving, Tongfu can immediately hand them over.
Gradually, Lin Chun's gaze on Tongfu became longer and longer.
Since she was out of confinement, Fu Qi has been like a wild horse, strolling around every day, following Lin Yizhi to work on the farm, and dragging her father to the lake to fish. If it weren't for breastfeeding, she really didn't want to go back to the house.
Fu Qi trotted into the house and patted the water stains on her skirt. Tongfu was closing an oil-paper umbrella under the eaves.
He came to Lin Jiaojiao and looked at the children in the stroller. When he saw Lin Lexing sleeping, he felt helpless and muttered softly.
"Why are you sleeping again? I sleep during the day and I'm energetic at night."
Then he sat next to Lin Jiaojiao and shared the interesting things he had discovered.
"Sister Jiaojiao, guess what I found on my way to find my father?"
Lin Jiaojiao did not answer but reached out and touched his skirt and shoes. The hem of his skirt was a little wet and the soles of his shoes were a little soaked.
"Go back to the house and change your clothes and shoes first."
Fu Qi also looked down at his shoes and felt that the socks inside his shoes were a little wet. He quickly stood up and went back to the house to change clothes.
At this time, Lin Yizhi walked out of the studio, rubbing his eyes and yawning.
It was raining heavily, so he didn't go to the farm. He stayed in the studio reading comic books. The children didn't cry or make a fuss, so he had a lot of free time.
"The little ones were all so well behaved today, they didn't cry at all..."
He approached and found one sleeping, and quickly lowered his voice.
"Wife, is my elder brother still in the study looking at the account book?"
"Well, Master Wang and the others have finished the work and are verifying it. If there is no problem, Aunt Lin will settle the balance this afternoon."
He stretched out his hand and shook the wind chime in the car, and the wind chime instantly spun, exciting Lin Xiayou, who was lying in the cradle, so much that she hummed louder and waved her hands to try to grab it.
He smiled and teased the child, "My wife is really fast. Master Wang has been here for almost a year."
Lin Jiaojiao also sighed: "Yes, I heard from the head of the village that Master Wang is going to buy the yard where they live, saying that they have grown attached to it."
"That's great. In a few years, her granddaughter will be old enough to go to school... Hey, Xia You, don't cry. Daddy will get you a toy. Don't cry, don't cry."
Lin Jiaojiao smiled faintly as she looked at Lin Yizhi, who was busy coaxing the child beside her. She watched him take out a wooden carved fish from the box under the car and put it in the child's hand.
However, Lin Xiayou didn't want it and kept crying and stretching out her hand to ask for the toy on the wind chime.
She stood up and took down the wind chime tied to the car, and slowly lowered it with the rope until the wooden carved rabbit on it was caught by Lin Xiayou, and the crying stopped.
"I didn't expect that our Xia You is such an impatient person."
“Who’s the impatient one?”
Fu Qi changed his clothes and shoes and walked out anxiously. When he found that people were gathered in front of Lin Xiayou's car, he knew that she was crying in front. He looked at Lin Lexing who was sleeping very soundly and felt helpless.
It seems that he won't be able to sleep well again tonight.
Seeing him come back, Lin Jiaojiao smiled and pulled the rope upwards to prevent the child from putting the food into his mouth.
"Look, Xia You was so anxious playing with a wind chime that you cried, right, Xia You? You were so anxious that you cried just now..."
In the study room next door, Lin Yiyan continued looking at the account book only after he could no longer hear the child crying.
"Sister Jiaojiao, I found a bird's nest in the garden. There are three little birds in it."
Lin Jiaojiao's eyes lit up. She had never raised a bird before.
Lin Yizhi was also very interested. "Where is it? Is it a sparrow?"
"I gave it to my father to raise. It doesn't have many feathers, so I don't know if it's a sparrow or not, and I don't know if I can keep it alive."
"If we can keep it alive, we can keep it in the fish pond pavilion so that we can feed the fish and entertain the birds."
"Brother, I think so too. My sister brought back a lovebird from Kyoto. Its feathers were green and blue and it was so beautiful. But Fu Boxin opened the cage and it flew away."
Lin Jiaojiao immediately became interested, "Are there still parrots for sale in Kyoto?"
If there are any, she will buy a few and raise them.
Fu Qi shook her head. "I don't know if it exists now. It was just given to my sister by a friend she made in Kyoto. I heard her family is a maritime merchant, so it's not surprising that she has this bird."
Lin Jiaojiao nodded thoughtfully, "Okay, I'll go and take a look when I go to Kyoto next year."
She had never seen any colorful birds in Jinwan, so she thought there were no such birds, so she didn't write to trouble Fu Ling.
"Sister Jiaojiao, I want two. I heard from you that lovebirds always stay with their partners forever."
She listened and nodded and silently opened the mall. She didn't expect that there were really such birds and animals inside. Lovebirds were not expensive and she could get one for 100 points.
"Is there anything else you need? I'll bring it all back when the time comes."
Of course, the two of them understood what she meant. Lin Yizhi didn't say anything. After all, he would have to go with her when the time came.
Fu Qi thought about it carefully, but couldn't remember anything for a moment. He shook his head and said he would tell her next time he remembered.
Before dinner, the rain outside finally stopped and everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
The servant was using bamboo poles to take down all the lanterns under the eaves and lighting the candles inside.
Father Lin was still a little worried, looking at the dim light in the yard outside.
"I don't know if it's raining in Qingzhou? It's probably going to be hard to travel on a rainy day."
When Lin Jiaojiao heard this, she looked outside the house, then hugged Lin Dongyi and continued to coax him, but she still comforted Lin's father.
"Don't worry, Dad. Even if Mom and the others don't make it, we can just have a meal together again when the time comes."
"Well, that's all we can do."
Fu Qi just came out after feeding her baby and immediately said, "Sister Jiaojiao, I want to eat hot pot tomorrow night."
"Well, we're going to slaughter a cow tomorrow, so we can scald the tripe then."
"Wife, there will be duck blood and lots of duck intestines tomorrow!"
