Before Shen Rong could call out to Xiao Zhuzi, the little figure disappeared in the blink of an eye.

The weather in February was neither too cold nor too hot. Shen Rong had been busy at the stove for nearly two hours and was sweating all over.

Changsheng is not much better than her.

Although he had been sitting there without moving, he had been helping to light the fire by the stove, and his face had turned red from the heat.

After Shen Rong and Changsheng had filled their stomachs and cleaned up the kitchen, they looked up and found that the sky had become overcast. A large dark cloud floated in the sky from nowhere.

Shen Rong was a little anxious. It looked like it was going to rain, and her grandparents didn't bring rain gear when they went out today.

It looked like the rain was about to fall. Judging from the time when my grandparents came back in the past, they were probably still on their way back.

As the sky was getting darker, Shen Rong became anxious.

The two old people are old, and it would be terrible if they got caught in the rain and caught a cold.

"Changsheng, it's going to rain, let's go pick up grandpa and grandma together."

Shen Rong made the decision in a flash. She found a straw raincoat and a bamboo hat in the house, and also took out the oil-paper umbrella that came with her as a dowry.

Changsheng followed Shen Rong closely all the time, taking whatever Shen Rong asked him to take.

Shen Rong prepared all the things she needed and turned around to see Changsheng also holding two straw raincoats and wearing a bamboo hat on his head.

Changsheng's family only had two bamboo hats and two raincoats.

Shen Rong has an oil-paper umbrella, and when she picks someone up later, these rain gear will be enough even if it really rains.

Shen Rong packed her things, locked the door, and went to the village entrance with Changsheng.

Shen Rong and Changsheng walked very fast. As soon as they left Taohua Village, the wind started to blow.

The moist wind blew the dead leaves around twice, and in the blink of an eye, raindrops as big as beans fell.

Shen Rong was anxious. The long road leading to Taohua Village was all in the wilderness, and there was no place on the roadside for grandpa and grandma to hide from the rain.

Shen Rong put on her hat and raincoat before the rain came.

As the rain fell, the rain water soaked the raincoat, and the raincoat, which was already heavy to begin with, became even heavier.

Shen Rong supported Changsheng, looked at the hazy rain in front of her, and walked forward quickly.

Soon, the rain soaked the muddy ground, and the dirt road, which was usually flat, became increasingly muddy. Shen Rong walked with one foot deep and one foot shallow. If Changsheng hadn't held her, she would have fallen down long ago.

The two walked in the rain for quarter of an hour and finally saw two familiar figures ahead on the road.

On the muddy road, two old men were walking slowly towards them, leaning on each other and holding a coat on their heads together.

"Grandpa and grandma." Changsheng shouted, pulled Shen Rong, and ran forward quickly.

With the power of Changsheng, Shen Rong moved very quickly and arrived in front of her grandparents in the blink of an eye.

It was not until a big umbrella covered the two people that grandpa and grandma realized that the people coming were Shen Rong and Changsheng.

It was raining, and Shen Rong and Changsheng were wearing straw raincoats and bamboo hats. Even though grandpa and grandma knew that someone was walking towards them, they didn't expect that it would be Shen Rong and Changsheng.

Even though they heard the words "grandpa and grandma" just now, the two elderly people didn't hear them clearly through the rain and just thought they were hallucinating.

"Why are you here?" Grandma's face was pale from the cold and she looked surprised.

Shen Lianchuan didn't expect that the two children would come to pick them up in the rain.

The two of them also put down their hands that were holding up the clothes.

Shen Rong felt a pang of sadness when she saw the two elderly people shivering from the cold.

Without saying a word, she quickly took off her hat and gave it to her grandmother. Changsheng followed suit and put his hat on his grandfather's head.

"Changsheng, please hold the umbrella."

As Shen Rong was speaking, her grandfather took the umbrella and held it over her and Changsheng's heads.

Shen Rong took off her straw raincoat, and also took off the thick outer coat she had put on when she went out.

"Child, don't take it off. My clothes are already wet. It's okay, just take off the raincoat." Sixth Grandma tried to stop her.

Shen Rong didn't say anything, but quickly took the clothes and a thick jacket and put them on her grandmother.

"Grandma, I put on an extra layer of clothes when I went out. It's okay."

When Sixth Grandma saw Shen Rong taking off her clothes and there was a small jacket underneath, she accepted Shen Rong's clothes and said, "Good child, thanks to you."

Shen Rong helped her grandmother put on her clothes. Changsheng, who was standing by, followed Shen Rong's example and took off his raincoat.

Sixth Grandpa hurriedly stopped Changsheng. "Changsheng, don't take off your clothes. Your clothes are all wet."

"Grandpa, Changsheng is young and healthy, it's okay, and we still have an umbrella!"

As Shen Rong spoke, she opened the cloth bag that she had been carrying on her chest, revealing a thin coat of Changsheng.

She handed the clothes to grandpa, "Grandpa, put them on quickly, don't catch a cold."

The clothes they had just used to keep out the rain were grandpa's coats, which had already been soaked.

Shen Lianchuan was wearing thin clothes and was old, so he was feeling very cold. The thin jacket that Shen Rong brought was undoubtedly a timely help to him.

"You are such a thoughtful kid," Sixth Grandpa praised.

He took the thin jacket, put on his clothes with the help of his grandmother, and put on the straw raincoat.

The rain was still falling, and Shen Rong and Changsheng's clothes got wet without them knowing when.

Fortunately, when they handed the hats to their grandparents, the umbrella covered them and only their upper bodies got wet.

After grandpa and grandma put on their clothes and straw raincoats, the oil-paper umbrella was put into Changsheng's hands at some point.

"Okay, the rain isn't going to stop for a while, let's go back quickly. Changsheng, take good care of your wife." Sixth Grandpa said while supporting Grandma.

"Oh." Changsheng replied.

Changsheng held the umbrella in one hand and supported Shen Rong with the other. The oil-paper umbrella was big enough, so Changsheng tilted the umbrella slightly towards Shen Rong and covered Shen Rong firmly under the umbrella.

Shen Rong held on to Changsheng's strong arm, and every time she took a step, she had to rely on Changsheng's strength to stand firmly.

The rain was still falling and the people walked very slowly.

This road is the one most traveled on on weekdays. The wild grass on the road surface is trampled to death as soon as it emerges. The bare loess road is turned into yellow mud after the rain. It is wet and slippery and extremely difficult to walk on.

Although the road was difficult to walk on, Shen Rong never fell.

Every time she slipped and was about to fall, the strong arm around her waist would always hold her up in time.

Shen Rong looked up at Changsheng. Changsheng was holding an umbrella in his left hand, with his right hand on her waist, his eyes looking at the road ahead intently.

Shen Rong was a little dazed. Changsheng didn't look like a fool at this moment.

Changsheng has broad shoulders and is very tall. His shoulders are broader than most men in the village and he is taller than all the men in the village.

Shen Rong was considered tall among the girls in the village, but at this moment, when she leaned against him, she only reached his shoulders.

Shen Rong now clearly realized that Changsheng was more manly than any other man in the village.

"Be careful, there are puddles."

Shen Rong wasn't paying attention and almost stepped into a puddle if Changsheng hadn't reminded her.

Shen Rong collected her thoughts and looked at her grandparents in front of her.

Grandpa and grandma supported each other and walked in front, very slowly, but every step was steady.
