90s Little Struggle

Chapter 15 New Home
What impressed her deeply was that before Zhao Youqiang married her mother, Grandma Zhao went to give them the horoscope.

The sorceress said that her mother, Yin Xingwang, has many daughters and is afraid of having no children.

For this reason, Grandma Zhao was very reluctant, and heard that she tried to stop her by crying, making trouble and hanging herself, but it was a pity that Uncle Zhao himself would not turn back and said that even if she could not have children in the future, she would marry.

Now it's her turn, she feels that her weight in Zhao Youqiang's heart may be a little light, if cheap father is not willing to carry it for herself and his mother, then she will not be able to live a peaceful life in Zhao's family.

Xiao Hong now really wants to lie in peace for a few years, and then go to the city to earn money in the future, so she is thinking in her heart, should she take the opportunity to visit the fortune teller?

When they slowly returned to Zha Village, they met more people on the road.

It's past four o'clock now, and the sun is not so strong. Everyone will go to work in the field at this time.

Seeing Xiao Hongyan sitting in Zhao Youqiang's bullock cart now, he naturally wanted to ask what kind of relatives Zhao Youqiang picked up?

Although Xiao Hong also lived in Zhacun for a few days a few years ago, she hadn't opened her eyes at that time, and everyone had forgotten who she was.

But now among relatives, it is very common for children to live for a week during the summer vacation.

Zhao Youqiang didn't hide anything, and said with a smile that it was Xiao Fang's sister who came to live at home.

Anyway, I can't hide this matter, why not spread it out?
Of course, he also kept an eye on it, and didn't say that Xiao Hong would stay at home from then on.

Zha Village is actually on Zha Mountain.

The mountains here are very high. In the past, only small roads were available. It took the government more than ten years ago to work together with people from the five small villages on Zhashan Mountain to build the mountain road into a small truck. On the mountain road, a small reservoir was also built.

Of course, at that time, don’t even think about having cement roads, the people living in Zha Village will be very happy if there are mountain roads for driving ox carts.

After all, they had to rely on manpower to pick out the food before.

Zha Village is also notoriously poor.

Now everyone feels that life is getting better and better.

Zha Village is right above the reservoir, and everyone's houses are built against the mountain, and they rarely use bricks, and most of them are built with wood.

I heard that there were a lot of wild boars and wild wolves here a long time ago, which harmed several children. For safety, most of them built two-story houses. Let the children of the family live.

Xiao Hong still remembers that when she came here a few years ago, she was afraid that the floor would collapse when she went upstairs.

The ox cart couldn't reach the door of the house, Zhao Youqiang first carried the two boxes home, and then hurriedly returned the ox cart to the family.

Xiao Hong followed her mother and went to Zhao’s house for a certain distance, and had to climb a slope. There were stone steps along the way, and there were scattered people living on both sides. Chickens, ducks and geese ran everywhere. Hearing his mother and people’s greetings all the way to Zhao Home.

The main reason was that when Zhao Youqiang separated his family, houses had already been built on the better terrain in the village, so he had to find a place to build a house in the upper part of the village.

The yard, which is as tall as one person, is made of stones, and there are two spacious two-story half-old wooden houses.

Standing in the yard, Xiao Hong was a little surprised: "This yard is well built!"

She still remembered that when she came here a few years ago, there was no yard like this, and it happened that wild badgers rushed in to steal chickens, and the bloody scene frightened her.

Xiao Fang pursed her lips and smiled: "Mom made up her mind to build the yard because she was afraid of scaring you again."

Of course this was to coax her.

It was the mother who was worried that my sister was still young, and if they didn't have a yard, they might be injured by wild badgers if they were negligent.

If you ask her, Xiao Hong was really unlucky. A few years ago, she ran into a wild badger at home, and when she went to chop bamboo in the bamboo forest, she was almost injured by a snake in the bamboo forest.

She saw with her own eyes the green snake coiled on the bamboo, making an attacking posture, and thanks to Zhao's father, who had sharp eyesight and quick hands, he pulled Xiao Hong over.

After Xiao Hong reacted, she immediately wanted to go home crying, unwilling to stay any longer.

Of course, Xiao Fang, a bystander, was also frightened. Fortunately, her parents didn't let her go to the bamboo forest again.

"Xiao Hong, go upstairs and clean up yourself." After Wu Julan finished speaking, she hurried to the pig pen and chicken coop behind the house to look at the poultry she raised.

This is one of the family's sources of income, and she still has to see it for herself to feel at ease.

In fact, Xiao Hong wished she could do the work, otherwise she would have to pack her luggage for herself, and she was worried that she would find the baby she brought along?
Xiao Hong was also thinking about where she should put the box to be safer.

After all, the padlock on the box can only prevent gentlemen, not villains.

Carrying the box and stepping on the wooden stairs to the upstairs.

The boards on the upper floor are made of wood, and the partition wall is also made of wood. There is a door between the two houses.

"Yanyan and I are sleeping in the outer room now." Xiao Fang didn't dare to make up her mind: "The inner room is empty now, but there are some sundries. If you want, the three of us can sleep together?"

Xiao Hong went to look inside, and there was only a diabolo bed with some old baskets on it.

She was overjoyed, and finally had her own space: "I'm used to sleeping alone, so I'll just sleep in this one inside?"

"That's fine." Seeing that she wasn't unhappy, Xiao Fang smiled and said, "Then I'll go down and get some water to wipe it off."

While Xiao Fang went downstairs, Xiao Hong also walked around the room, opened the small window, looked at the village below, and the reservoir not far away. The lush trees opposite the reservoir can also be regarded as beautiful mountains and rivers. Nice place with fresh air.

After a while, Wu Julan came up with a bucket and a towel, looked at the shabby room and couldn't help but sighed: "If you want to live in this room, let's clean it first, and when your Uncle Zhao is free, let him give it to you." Make some furniture."

Although Zhao Youqiang is a bamboo craftsman, his second brother is a carpenter. Sometimes his second brother will let him help when he receives a job. After a long time, Zhao Youqiang will also do some simple carpentry work.

"Okay," Xiao Hong said with a smile: "Then I will cook and thank Uncle Zhao."

Wu Julan was worried that Xiao Hong was careless at first, and disliked the simplicity, but now she heard that she was so sensible, and felt distressed. After her mother-in-law was gone, her daughter suffered a lot of grievances, which made her become so sensible now.

Therefore, she couldn't bear her daughter's work, and found an excuse to send them out: "I'll do the cleaning here, you go to the consignment store and buy a few bags of salt, I'm going to pickle some eggs and duck eggs, and I'll buy a few bottles of soda. "

When she came back before, when passing by Qiancun, Xiao Fang pointed out to her that there is no agency store in Zhacun, and it takes more than two miles to walk to the front village to have an agency store.

Xiao Hong was overjoyed when she thought that the fortune-teller's home was also in Qiancun.
