The female supporting role who was deprived of the koi luck in the chronicle

Chapter 13 Thatched Cottage

The roof is thatched, and the walls are made of straw and mud.

There are a few rooms in the house, and looking through the window, it is dark inside.

A female educated youth opened the door and came out, looked at the people standing outside, "Are you new educated youths?"

Everyone nodded.

Susie saw that the yellow floral shirt on this female educated youth was obviously a little short, and her body was tightly bound, and the buttons on her chest were about to explode.

The female educated youth's hair is not long, with two short braids on one left and one on the right, and the bangs on her forehead are curled into curls.

"Why are so many people here?" The educated youth muttered in a low voice, Susie's ears were sharp, and she heard it.

Then the female educated youth said: "Then you settle down first, by the way, my name is Yu Xue."

Tian Xiaohui stepped forward and asked, "Where do we move our luggage?"

Yu Xue pointed to a room, "This room is empty, female educated youths can live there."

She pointed to the other side, "There is only one male educated youth living in that room, and the male can live there."

Uncle Xu helped several people unload their luggage, then pushed the cart away.

Susie walked to the room Yu Xue was pointing at, opened the door and took a look. The inside of the room was a compacted mud floor, and the inside walls were not painted, so it was no different from the outside. The wooden windows were covered with spider webs, and the corners of the walls were There was a pile of straw, and some dismantled wooden shelves and boards leaned against the wall.

Tian Xiaohui poked her head out from behind Susie and screamed strangely, "Oh my god, can people live in this house?"

Zhao Tingting stood beside her, her face turned green.

Susie is a person who has high requirements for environmental hygiene, but she knows that in this era and this place, she can't pay so much attention, so she can only grit her teeth and endure it.

When she entered the house, she smelled a musty smell first.

She looked at the straw in the corner, the musty smell should come from here.

She turned her head to Tian Xiaohui and Zhao Tingting and said, "We have to get these straws out first, otherwise, there is no way to live in this house."

Zhao Tingting was a little scared of Su Qian now, so she nodded quickly, "I have to get it out, it smells so bad."

Tian Xiaohui suddenly said: "Wait a minute, the musty smell is too strong, and it's bad for your health if you smell it too much, I'll go get the mask first."

Her mother is a doctor. When she came out this time, she took a few cotton gauze masks from home and put them on. They were originally intended to be used as dishcloths, but now they come in handy.

Tian Xiaohui opened the travel bag and took three masks, one for each person.

Susie didn't expect to wear books and wear a mask.

She put on the mask, first took out a large bundle of straw from the corner, and put it in the yard.

The three moved back and forth, and soon emptied the straw.

In the corner of the wall where the straw was placed before, all kinds of small insects crawled and ran around on the ground.

Tian Xiaohui screamed and waved the broken broom wildly.

Su Qian looked at the bugs for a while and felt disgusted, but she was funny when she saw Tian Xiaohui's appearance, "This can't work, there are too many bugs, and it will be miserable if they crawl on you when you sleep at night."

Zhao Tingting trembled beside her.

Susie took the broken broom in Tian Xiaohui's hand, "Go to the village and ask from house to house to see if any house has mugwort leaves, and get some to fumigate the house, otherwise it won't be possible to live here."

Tian Xiaohui nodded and ran out.

Susie untied the bedroll, took out the enamel washbasin wrapped inside, fetched a basin of water from the stove, found an old sportswear that was a bit torn, tore it into several pieces to make rags, and cleaned the The windows and doors were cleaned, and then Zhao Tingting and Zhao Tingting took the wooden shelves and boards to the yard to scrub them.

Tian Xiaohui went there for about half an hour, and came panting with a large bundle of wormwood.

Susie saw that the wormwood was dry, "There are matches in the stove, light it, close the doors and windows, and smoke it."

Tian Xiaohui lit the wormwood, closed the door and came out, and soon thick smoke came out from the crack of the door.

Yu Xue smelled the smoke, "Oh, what are you doing? Don't burn the house down!"

Su Qian said: "It can't be burned, all the things in the house have been taken out, and the fire is not too big, but the smoke is big."

Yu Xue stood outside the house, and said again: "What do you guys plan to have for dinner tonight?"

Susie was squatting and cleaning the wooden shelf, but she stood up when she heard her words, "How do you eat?"

Yu Xuedao: "Now that the farming season is busy, we eat together. Six people are on duty in shifts. Those on duty do not work. They are responsible for cooking, washing dishes, cleaning the house and carrying water."

"Otherwise, it would be too tiring to cook after work."

After she finished speaking, she waved her hands in a hurry, "However, don't count on me today. I can't cook meals for so many people by myself."

"Besides, you didn't share rations, so who's to blame if you eat it?"

Yuan Gang came over from the male educated youth's room at this time, and asked Yu Xue's words: "I heard that rations are given according to work points. We don't have work points here, so how do we distribute the rations?"

"It doesn't matter, the captain will borrow some food for you first, and deduct it after you have work points."

Susie thought for a while, "Yu Xue, can I trouble you to cook our rice together tonight, first lend you two catties of rice, and return it to you when we get the food."

Seeing Yu Xue's reluctance, Su Qian said again: "We only cook, and we will figure out how to cook."

She estimated that among the few people who came here, none of them knew how to use this kind of earthen stove in the countryside, and they all use coal stoves in the city.

In any case, the problem of filling the stomach must be solved first.

Yu Xue hesitated for a moment, then nodded, "It's time to cook, so I'll scoop up two more cups of rice." Saying that, she went to the kitchen.

Zhao Tingting waited for her to leave, and threw the rag, "This lady from Haicheng is just so cute, she sees us rushing in and out, and she doesn't even bother to help, she even asks her to cook a meal!"

Tian Xiaohui is also not very happy, this is not the same as the life she thought of jumping in the queue. They are all in a group, shouldn't everyone help each other?
Susie didn't answer their words. She was used to the indifference of people in later generations, and she also agreed with the sentence - it is love to help you, and it is duty not to help.Nothing to blame.

Seeing that the wooden shelves and planks have been wiped clean, and the wormwood in the house is still smoking, she pulls Tian Xiaohui over, "Let's go, let's go to the village to buy some eggs, otherwise there will be no food for dinner."

Zhao Tingting hesitated to speak next to her, Susie turned to her, "Does Tingting want to go together?"

Zhao Tingting hurriedly said, "Yes, yes."

It's not that she wants to go, it's just that she is here alone, unfamiliar with the place, and panicked.

Yuan Gang followed, "Then I'll go to the brigade headquarters to see if the captain is off work."

Tian Xiaohui had just been looking for wormwood, and probably knew the way to the village, so she pointed the direction to Yuan Gang, and he strode away.

The three girls walked out of the yard not far away, and soon saw a family.

Susie was about to go there, but Tian Xiaohui held her back, "There's no one there, I just went there."

She pointed to the place not far away, "Go to that house, there is an aunt named Lan, she is very kind, just now she told me that Uncle Xu's house has wormwood, and her house also raises chickens, so there should be eggs. "
