Chapter 3
Chen Xiuyan didn't know what the Luo family thought. After going up the mountain, she went to a safe and hidden place, and then slipped into the space, changed clothes in the space, and after leaving the space, lit a fire to dry the wet clothes. It took an hour. It was almost time to dry, and Chen Xiuyan didn't forget to get mud on her clothes after changing them.

Walking around the mountain for nearly an hour, it was obviously a strange place, but seeing the clusters of houses at the foot of the mountain, Chen Xiuyan felt a sense of familiarity in her heart, it was the hometown in the memory of this body.

Just a few steps away, Chen Xiuyan saw a familiar figure in her memory not far ahead. A woman with a pannier in her hand and firewood on her back was walking slowly down the mountain. Coarse cloth thin jacket, the lower body is a brown skirt, there are patches on the skirt, but not many, the face turned around is a bit round, but the figure is not very fat, this is the original second sister-in-law He Shi.

"Little sister?" When He heard the sound of walking, he instinctively looked back, but what he saw was Chen Xiuyan, who was supposed to be in the county seat. Step by step, he walked towards him, "Little sister, why are you here? What happened? Did you fall?"

The expression in his eyes was worried, and his rough hands did not dare to touch Chen Xiuyan's clothes, but no matter what, the concern for him was genuine.

It's been a long time since I've seen such a pure person. Chen Xiuyan has a good impression of this second sister-in-law whom she met for the first time.

After all, the original body's attitude towards this second sister-in-law in memory was not very good. It's hard to blame this person for being pure and kind.

"The clothes are dirty, and I came back halfway." Chen Xiuyan explained.

He Shi was surprised by Chen Xiuyan's explanation, instead of disgusting her long-windedness as before, impatient with her own questioning, she threw the dirty clothes in front of her to be washed, and then rolled her eyes and ignored herself.

"Then, let's go home, the second sister-in-law will wash your clothes." He said a little uncomfortable.

"Okay." Chen Xiuyan didn't want to give the impression that she had changed a lot, so she responded immediately, "Wash it clean, this body is just made."

He breathed a sigh of relief, she was the familiar little girl, so she grinned, "Okay, I will wash carefully."

After walking for a quarter of an hour, I arrived at the door of the house. At this time, all the people staying at home were children. The eldest nephew was in the yard with the three younger ones. One who cut pigweed cut pigweed, one who fed chickens fed chickens, and one who was just able to walk Yes, pushing the chair around.

"Mother (second aunt), sister." The four children saw the two calling out obediently, and the soft voice made Chen Xiuyan feel a little soft in her heart. No matter what time it is, children are the cutest.

"Little sister, shall I bring your bathtub in first?"

Chen Xiuyan loved cleaning since she was a child, and her father-in-law was a carpenter, so Chen Xiuyan's washbasins, foot basins, and bathtubs were all available. When Mrs. He first married, she felt that the ladies in the county were not so delicate.

"En." Chen Xiuyan nodded naturally, her eyes were looking at the house.

The green brick and tile house has a Pin-shaped structure, three main rooms, three east and west wing rooms, and two adobe rooms, one for the kitchen and one for the firewood room.

The front yard is not big, paved with bluestone slabs. In my memory, the backyard is a vegetable field, a hut, a pigsty, and a chicken coop.

I just came down from the mountain. Most of the villages are adobe houses, and the blue brick and tile houses are rare luxury houses. The original family can live in it thanks to the cheap father Chen Dazhong, a well-known carpenter in several nearby villages. The wooden boxes and cabinets for the dowry are all entrusted to him, and even the county often has jobs.

Chen Xiuyan's two elder brothers also worked as carpenters with Chen Dazhong, and their crafts are almost ready to be mastered. There is also an older sister who is eight years older than the original body and married earlier. Lost the current temper.

According to her memory, Chen Xiuyan entered the room on the far right of the main house, which was the room where the original body lived alone.

Open the door, and there is a kang in the corner. On the kang are two boxes and a kang table. There is also a large cabinet in the room. Next to the wardrobe is a washstand, a wooden basin and a cloth towel, and there is a square table in front of the kang. And four stools, because Chen Dazhong is a carpenter, there is no shortage of these furniture at home.

Chen Xiuyan opened the wooden box on the left side of the kang, took out a clean apron, jacket, and trousers from inside, and then selected a suit of clothes that she found pleasing to the eye and prepared them.

Mrs. He came in alone with the bathtub on his back, and quickly poured hot water one after another. When the bathtub was six to seven minutes full, he smiled and asked Chen Xiuyan to take a bath, and told him to come later to help pour the bath water.

Chen Xiuyan closed the doors and windows tightly, took off her clothes, and sat in the hot tub. Not to mention enjoying herself, she didn't know how long she hadn't taken a bath. Even if there was space, it was a life-saving existence, and she would not waste time using it. Come and soak yourself.

Stretching out her hand unconsciously to touch the peach blossom red imprint on her chest, she felt a little emotional in her heart. She didn't expect that she would be able to escape from the apocalypse. She lay down and soaked her whole body in the bathtub. After holding her breath for a while, she surfaced with a smile on her face. It's great to be able to live a normal life.

When Mrs. He came to pour water, she found that Chen Xiuyan had washed her hair, so she quickly used a clean cloth towel to help twist her hair. Seeing Chen Xiuyan lying on the kang with loose clothes, revealing a lot of fair skin, and propping her head outside the kang, she He took the quilt and covered Chen Xiuyan, "Although it's March, it's still cold."

Chen Xiuyan didn't make a sound, but the slightly opened skirt was closed under the quilt, and He couldn't see the peach blossom red mark on the jade pendant. The original body didn't have a birthmark of this shape on her chest. It seemed that only she could see it, so that's good.

Her hair was almost dry, He went out, Chen Xiuyan lay on the pillow, and began to sleep peacefully. This sleep was very dark, very deep, and very fragrant. When she opened her eyes again, she could find it through the window. It was dark outside.

"Master, hurry up and invite third uncle. Xiuyan is still awake at this moment. When I went to see you, she was sweating just now. Don't catch a cold." Instigated by the voice, "Second brother, go and see if the porridge in the crock is still hot, and how many times has the egg custard been hot? Maybe it's fishy. You can steam another bowl for Xiuyan. The original share is for Lin Yunchi, he has to study, the hardest thing."

In the house, Chen Xiuyan began to sort out the information of Yuanshen's family members.

The elder brother, Chen Muzhu, and the elder sister, Ning, gave birth to the eldest grandson of the Chen family, Chen Linyun, who is eight years old this year, and a five-year-old daughter, Chen Yucui.

The second elder brother, Chen Mugui, and the second sister-in-law, He Shi, have a four-year-old daughter Chen Yubi and a two-year-old son Chen Lincai.

Although the population is simple, there are many things to do.

"Mom, I've been doing embroidery for a day now, let my second sibling go and invite my third uncle. Since the egg custard in the pot is given to Lin Yun, I'll bring it."

"Grandma, I'm going to invite Uncle San Zeng." Chen Linyun took the initiative to take over the task.

"You child, how do you go at night, let your father go." Ning looked at her eldest son a little helplessly, and gave Chen Muzhu a look, and Chen Muzhu obediently went to invite him.
