As soon as the director's words came out, everyone felt a lot calmer.

"It's only a ten-minute journey, so everyone, please pay attention to your steps and be careful not to slip!"

Maybe people in the village often come in and out, so this section of the road is not too difficult and is relatively flat and open.

But because of the heavy rain, the mud and water on the road poured into the shoes.

Because of the bad weather, all the teachers and students had to walk for more than ten minutes to reach their destination.

Seeing the village in front, it was like seeing the light, and everyone couldn't help but speed up and move forward.

At this moment, they deeply understood what it means to be in a desperate situation with no way out, yet another village has a bright future.

Because it was raining heavily outside, there was no pedestrian on the road, and the villagers in every household were hiding in their houses.

Adhering to the principle of staying close, everyone quickly ran to a row of eaves at the entrance of the village to take shelter from the rain.

Children have never discovered that it is such a blessing to have a place to go on a rainy day.

Everyone was soaked from head to toe, and they were holding their bodies and shivering at the moment.

Yan Jingqiu and Lin Xiaoyun were not much better, hugging each other to keep each other warm.

Hearing the noise, the villagers in the house came out curiously to check the situation.

Seeing so many people outside, an old man in his sixties asked in surprise:

"This is what you are doing?"

The grade director stood up and explained politely: "Uncle, we are teachers and students from the No. 1 Middle School in the city. We are on an autumn outing today and were trapped in the mountains by the heavy rain. We had no choice but to come here to take shelter. I'm sorry to disturb you... ....”

Seeing the teacher who spoke so politely, the old man did not feel disturbed.

Looking at the soaked children, the old man said distressedly: "What's the trouble? You're all wet. I'll arrange a place for you to warm up by the fire. It's not good to be sick... "

"That's great. I want to thank you on behalf of the children."

The situation was special and it was not the time to be polite, so the grade director readily accepted the uncle's kindness.

"It's not a big deal, so don't be polite to me. These children can't stand the cold."

After speaking, the old man called on the neighbors next door to take out their umbrellas and help lead them to a nearby row of houses.

"The rain today probably won't stop for a while, so you should take a rest here and dry your clothes first."

This was the old dormitory where educated youths lived before. Now that new ones have been built, the place is temporarily vacant.

The house in front of them was made of yellow mud and wood. Although it looked shabby, it was good at being able to shelter from wind and rain. The students and teachers expressed their sincere gratitude to the villagers.

"Okay, don't be polite to us. There is a lot of firewood in the kitchen. You can use it as you like. Dry your clothes first."

These days, every household is in difficulty and cannot afford enough clothes to change for dozens of people.

Everyone also knew that after the old man and other villagers left, the teachers closed the door and started to light the fire.

Fortunately, there was enough firewood, so everyone gathered in groups to warm themselves up in front of the fire.

After experiencing the wind and rain just now, the students felt satisfied to be able to warm themselves comfortably in the house by the fire.

There was no more anxiety and panic, and everyone started chatting.

"It's so comfortable. I was almost frozen to death just now..."

"It's so cold, I'm almost scared to death."

"Me too, me too..."

It’s not like I have never experienced violent storms, but when encountering such a situation in the mountains, the fear will skyrocket.

Yan Jingqiu and Lin Xiaoyun sat next to each other, wiping the rain off each other's faces and the water on their hair.

They both brought handkerchiefs, which came in handy at this time.

The clothes everyone wears during this season are relatively thin and will dry out in a short time.

However, the wind and rain outside showed no signs of stopping.

Several teachers went out to take a look, and some of them were confused.

Two more hours passed, the sky became darker and darker, and the rain did not stop at all.

The director and the teachers gathered together and prepared to find the old man just now.

Unexpectedly, as soon as they walked to the door, they met the old man and several villagers, all holding a quilt in their hands.

The old man led the villagers into the house and said to several teachers:

"It's already this hour, and the rain won't stop. You can just spend the night here. It's too dangerous to go down the mountain now, and it's easy to encounter landslides..."

"These quilts were brought from home. I'll lend them to you first. It gets cold at night on the mountain..."

Seeing such simple and kind-hearted villagers, everyone felt warm and moved in their hearts.

These days, quilts are very precious items to everyone, and it would be a huge honor to lend them to you.

"Thank you, thank you!" The teachers bowed to the old man and the villagers and expressed their gratitude.

"thank you all!"

Seeing this, the students also bowed and thanked him.

The old man smiled happily and said energetically: "You are all the hope of the country's future. You must study hard and build the motherland in the future!"

The classmates nodded and said yes.

The old man was very happy, "When the meal is ready, I will bring you food. You can arrange the room here by yourself. The door is not locked."

"it is good."

At five o'clock, several women from the village came with bamboo baskets and boiling kettles to deliver meals to them.

The basket contained warm steamed buns, and the kettle contained boiling water.

On this stormy evening, it was undoubtedly the most precious dinner for all the teachers and students of No. 1 Middle School.

These are full of goodwill from the villagers, and even many years later, they will often think of today's warmth.

Each person had a coarse-grain steamed bun in his hand, and everyone still sat around the fire and ate.

Yan Jingqiu sat there, chewing the steamed buns slowly and taking a sip of hot water from time to time.

She glanced at the little sister next to her and asked, "Xiaoyun, do you have enough? I'll give you another half."

Lin Xiaoyun usually has a big appetite, and she knows that.

"No, I'm not that hungry after eating your peach cake at noon." Lin Xiaoyun shook her head and replied.

In fact, she hasn't eaten enough yet, but she is not the kind of person who only cares about herself and not others.

Speaking of peach cakes, Yan Jingqiu suddenly remembered that she still had one in her schoolbag.

She quietly took it out, handed it to Lin Xiaoyun, and whispered: "Take it and eat it."

Fortunately, it was wrapped in oil paper and was not soaked by the rain.

Lin Xiaoyun didn't want it at first, but Yan Jingqiu stuffed it into her arms without saying a word.

Another day of being pampered by my little sisters!

Lin Xiaoyun thought for a moment, broke off half of it and handed it to Yan Jingqiu, saying that if she didn't eat it, she wouldn't eat it either.

Yan Jingqiu had no choice but to reach out and take it.

At this moment, she regretted not listening to Aunt Qian's advice and bringing out a few more dollars.
