Li Rui said, "Ask the villagers or the village's two committee members, if you send people here to buy wild herbs in the future, will they accept the job?" Ou Yangxin smiled and said, "As long as the money is in place, even if you ask the villagers to go up the mountain to move stones, they will be willing, so there is no need to do that." Li Rui smiled and said, "This is what they mean by money can make the devil turn the millstone?" Ou Yangxin corrected him and said, "The latest saying is, money can make the devil turn the millstone." After saying this, she laughed out loud.
Just as she finished speaking, suddenly there was a muffled sound of thunder, the mountain wind blew, the grass and leaves flew.
Li Rui felt that the wind was very humid, the wind blew on his face and made it wet. He looked up at the sky and shouted, "No way, is it going to rain now?" Just as he said this, he felt something wet hit his face, he reached out and touched it, it was actually a drop of water. At the same time he discovered this, he heard the sound of countless raindrops falling from the sky, landing on the grass of the mountain top, creating a 'shua shua' sound.
Ou Yangxin's face changed and called out, "Aiya, you jinx!" Li Rui didn't know whether to laugh or cry and said, "How am I a jinx, you just said it was going to rain. Besides, I already said to bring an umbrella up the mountain, but you didn't agree. "Ou Yangxin anxiously said," Aiya, don't talk nonsense, let's quickly go down the mountain. "Finished speaking, she pushed him.
Li Rui held her slender hand and ran in the direction they came from. As the two ran, they each raised a hand above their heads to block the raindrops that fell on their heads, although the effect was minimal.
The two's reaction was fast, but the rain came too quickly, just as the two ran halfway up the mountain, the rain became heavier. Li Rui's face was immediately covered with rain, Ou Yangxin was not much better, although her hair was thicker than his, after being soaked by the rain, the area of her face was more wet, the two's jackets were also slowly wet under the rain, if the rain continued, their bodies would be soaked. Fortunately, the mountain road was only slightly damp at this time, so walking on it was still relatively stable. If the heavy rain formed and the mountain rain washed down, the road would be full of mud and water, and it would be difficult to go down the mountain. After considering this, Li Rui became even more anxious. He wished he could grow a pair of wings and fly down the mountain to get into the car.
Speaking of which, their luck wasn't too bad. Li Rui was panicking as he walked down the mountain. As he looked around, he suddenly noticed a dark cave-like cave on the mountain wall not far from his right. It was only a dozen steps away from him. If the two of them could run there to take shelter from the wind and rain, even if they couldn't completely block the falling rain, it would at least be better than running down the mountain and getting drenched. In such a heavy rain, if he really wanted to run to the car at the foot of the mountain, there probably wouldn't be any dry spots on his body. He was afraid that it would rain heavily on the outside and on the inside of his clothes. Just thinking about it made him feel terrible.
Thinking of this, he pulled Ou Yangxin and ran towards the cave. Ou Yangxin was already dizzy from the heavy rain, she didn't know what to do, so she just let him pull her and ran. She didn't have the ability to distinguish the direction, so she just obediently let him pull her.
As they got closer, Li Rui could see the cave more clearly, he realized that instead of calling it a cave, it was more like a groove on the mountain wall. This mountain wall seemed to have been split open from top to bottom by a giant axe, it was straight up and down, and it was as high as a two-story building. The mountain wall was as flat as a stone, and there wasn't a single blade of grass growing on it. At the bottom of the mountain wall near the ground, there was a deep groove. The entrance was about one meter wide, one and a half meters deep, and about half a person high. The cave entrance became narrower as it went in. The overall size was similar to the small space under Ou Yangxin's large office desk. It was slightly bigger, but not by much.
Li Rui secretly frowned after looking at the cave. He really didn't want to be in such a narrow cave, but the wind and rain outside was heavy, and he had no choice but to squeeze in. After a quick calculation, he estimated that if he and Ou Yangxin squeezed in, they would be able to sit side by side. Although it would be a little suffocating to sit inside, they could only endure it if they could avoid the wind and rain outside.
He pulled Ou Yangxin to the narrow cave entrance and said, "Let's take shelter from the rain here first." Ou Yangxin looked at the small cave with astonishment and asked, "Aren't we going to the car?" Li Rui sighed, "It's raining so heavily. If we really go to the car, we'll be soaked. It's fine if we just get soaked, but it'll be easy to catch a cold. You don't want to wake up tomorrow morning with a runny nose, right?" Ou Yangxin nodded with a bitter expression.
Li Rui bent her waist and turned around to sit inside the cave. He also cleaned up the mountain debris on the ground. After sitting inside, he found that the cave was just right for two people. Their heads couldn't touch the ceiling, their backs couldn't lean against the bottom of the cave, and their feet were just right inside the cave entrance, so they didn't have to worry about being drenched by the rain. The only thing was that the two of them had to maintain a sitting position and stick close to each other. They also couldn't move, so they could only snuggle up to each other. But then again, as long as they didn't get drenched by the rain, this little bit of suffering was nothing.
After the two of them sat down, they looked at the dense rain outside, then turned their heads to look at each other and laughed.
Outside the cave, it was pouring rain; inside the cave, it was as warm as home.
Ou Yangxin sighed and said, "It's really 'It's raining heavily during the Qingming Festival'." Li Rui continued, "The people on the mountain feel like their souls are broken. Where can we take shelter from the rain? The heavens have arranged for us to squat in the cave. " Ou Yangxin laughed and tilted her head to look at him and said, "You don't say, the crooked poems you just made up are quite appropriate." Li Rui boasted, "Of course, I'm also a wet person." Ou Yangxin laughed and said, "How come I didn't know you were a poet? Have you written poems before? "Li Rui pointed to his hair and shoulders and said," It's this wet person. " Ou Yangxin was amused by him and laughed until she almost fell down. She raised her hand to hit him and said, "Don't make me laugh, I'm laughing until my stomach hurts." Li Rui said with a serious face, "Okay, I won't joke anymore."
Ou Yangxin laughed and turned her head to look at the rain outside the cave. After a while she sighed and said faintly, "It's raining so heavily, I don't know how long it will last. What if it rains for a whole day? Then it'll be difficult to go back today. "Li Rui laughed and said," If we can't go back, then the two of us can spend the night in this cave. " Ou Yangxin's face slightly changed, she was obviously frightened, but she quickly realized that he was joking and said, "Hmph, I can spend the night here, but can you? You have to wake up early tomorrow morning to pick up the secretary, you'll definitely be late if you rush back from here. "Li Rui sighed and said," You even know this, you really are my confidante. Don't worry, even if the rain doesn't stop, I'll find a way to bring you down. At most I'll just get wet. "
Ou Yangxin smiled and asked, "Are you going to get wet, or am I going to get wet?" Li Rui laughed and said, "Of course I'm going to get wet. Even if I'm going to get wet, I still have to go down the mountain to get an umbrella and come back to pick you up. How can I let you get wet? Of course, if you want to get wet, you can tell me, I don't mind fulfilling your wish. "Ou Yangxin laughed and raised her fist to hit him again. Li Rui noticed that after she had slapped him, her fist was still on his arm and she didn't take it back. So, he obediently reached out and held her hand again. Ou Yangxin looked up and saw his little action. She opened her mouth to say something, but quickly closed it, smiled and didn't say anything.
Outside, the mountain wind whistled and the rain poured down, but inside the cave, it was quiet and the temperature slowly rose.
After a while, Li Rui suddenly sighed and said, "I like this feeling." Ou Yangxin tilted her head and looked at him and asked, "What feeling?" Li Rui said, "It's the feeling right now. Sitting side by side with the person you like in the cave, looking at the heavy rain outside and enjoying the rare leisure time. You don't have to think about pleasing the leader, you don't have to worry about the problems at work, you don't have to half-heartedly entertain people … You can throw away all the worldly matters, relax your body and mind, and chase after the trace of peace and tranquility in your heart. But it's a pity that life is so boring, you can't enjoy this kind of beautiful feeling more than a few times. " Ou Yangxin pursed her lips and chuckled. She didn't care about the main idea in his words, but caught the main point and said, "With the person you like? Can I take it that you're taking the opportunity to hint at me? "
Li Rui also turned his head and looked at her. He gazed into her beautiful eyes and said with a smile, "No, do I need to hint at you when I like you? Don't you already know? "Ou Yangxin said with a smile that didn't look like a smile," Already know? No, I didn't know at all, I still don't know. "Li Rui sighed and said," Ou Yangyang, don't pretend, you definitely already know. If I didn't like you, I wouldn't be your bosom friend. " Ou Yangxin's smile grew wider and said, "The 'like' between bosom friends should be at the level of friends. The 'like' you're talking about is more like a confession of love." Li Rui said, "No, I'm not confessing my love, it's still at the level of bosom friends." Ou Yangxin held back her laughter and said, "Then why are you holding my hand?" Li Rui opened his mouth and said, "I'm afraid your hand will be cold." Ou Yangxin laughed when she heard this and said, "My hand isn't cold, my body is cold."
Li Rui was stunned for a moment, then his face lit up with joy. He immediately let go of her hand and wrapped his right arm around her slender waist, gently hugging her to his side. Ou Yangxin was hugged so intimately by him, but she didn't feel any displeasure. Her red lips were slightly raised, and the corners of her mouth had a hint of a smile, but it made her even more beautiful and enchanting, like a lily blooming in the rain.
