The rain poured down relentlessly.
Three consecutive days of heavy rain had brought many inconveniences to daily life.
By evening, the sky was already dim and overcast, with no sign of clearing up. Zhuang Zhixi was in the courtyard fetching water, as the tap water at home had run out. As he worked, he heard the chattering of children and turned to see Hu Huihui.
Although the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law of the Su family were in the hospital, the three children couldn't just be left unattended. After running around all night, they were handed over to Hu Huihui that morning. Truth be told, Hu Huihui wasn't fond of these children at all.
None of them were well-behaved, but she didn't refuse to take them. She brought them to a friend's place and asked them to look after the kids. It was the only option since it was summer break, and they couldn't be sent to school.
