I am a cripple in the Siheyuan. Who am I afraid of?

Chapter 4: Find Qin Huairu to unpack and wash the bedclothes
Most of the employed residents in this courtyard work in nearby factories.More than half of them are in the Red Star Steel Rolling Mill, and some are in the machinery factory and cotton spinning mill.

Like Yan Bugui, not many people come back to eat at noon.Mainly because Yan Bugui is a teacher, and the school is just two streets away, so it is convenient for him to go back and forth.

The front yard of the courtyard was very quiet at this time.Yan Bugui went to work, so no one had to worry about people coming and going. In fact, he probably wasn't busy with school and work every day, and he was still energetic after get off work, so he treated himself like an old janitor.

When Song Wu opened the door to the east chamber, he was immediately overwhelmed by the smoke.He has cleaned himself up now, but it seems that the house needs to be cleaned up as well.

He held his breath and opened all the windows in the house for a thorough ventilation.

At this time, he thought to himself: "Oh, what a miscalculation! I should clean up the house first before taking a shower. Now maybe the clothes I just cleaned will be dirty again."

But despite the whispers, the house had to be tidied, otherwise he wouldn't be able to stay for even a minute.At worst, your body will be really dirty by then, so go wash it again.Anyway, he won't exchange his bath tickets with others in the future. It's just one or two a month, which is not enough for him.

Song Wu covered his mouth and nose with a towel, and first took down the bedding on the bed.

"Damn, it's too dirty. Do you still want this? Never mind, just throw it outside the house first."

He threw the black bedding with various strange white patterns on it under the porch outside the house, and then he began to clean the house.Thanks to the fact that there aren't many things in the house, the most difficult thing to make is a kang.He just needs to sweep away the garbage and dust on the floor, find a rag, and give it a good scrubbing with the kang attached to it.

It may be that there was too much dirt accumulated over time. After Song Wu finished fixing the kang and the house, the whole house looked damp.He saw some firewood placed with the pile of briquettes at the south end of the porch.Simply follow the operation method in memory, first clean out the firewood ash in the kang hole, and get some firewood to burn the kang, so that the moisture in the house can be removed.

He had limited use of his legs and feet, so he worked on this for half the afternoon.In the end, apart from a little dust on my clothes and sweat on my body, I wasn't too dirty.

He gritted his teeth and simply packed up the small wing room on the south side that was used as a kitchen.Fortunately, he used to be a lazy person. Although he didn't like cleaning, he rarely cooked in the kitchen with great fanfare, which saved him a lot of effort in cleaning now.He just put away some old and unused clutter, washed the dishes, and wiped the stove and chopping boards, and the kitchen basically looked brand new.

Although overall he didn't do much work, and Song Wu wasn't tired, his left thigh started to hurt again, forcing him to stop temporarily.

He returned to the east wing, poured himself a glass of hot water, sat on a chair, drank water and rested.

The pain in his leg is bearable. In fact, as long as it is not cloudy and rainy, the cold weather in the dead of winter, such as a spring day like today when the sun is high, his leg can still bear it.Just be afraid...

Song Wu recalled the excruciating pain in his leg in the cold weather, and couldn't help but shudder.

"If I find time, I have to go to the hospital again to see if there are any painkillers or medicines that can slow down the condition?"

In fact, he also knows that most of the Western medicines used to relieve pain have serious side effects. It is not a problem to take them occasionally, but they must not be taken often!As for Chinese medicine, the difficulty is that it is difficult to find a good doctor.At the same time, his leg is indeed difficult to repair. If the iron piece is not taken out and the root cause of the disease is removed, no matter what, it will only treat the symptoms but not the root cause, and it may become more and more serious.

"Again, the worst case scenario is that my legs will be cut off." Song Wu took a sip of water and said to himself through gritted teeth.But even though he said that, now that he finally had the opportunity to have a fully living body, he really couldn't bear to give up so easily.

After resting for a while, my legs felt better.Song Wu stood up and prepared to continue working.Now the kang is still bare, so we have to solve the problem of bedding!
He closed the door and took out the big iron box from the two-door cabinet, looking for cloth and cotton tickets.But after rummaging through it, I was disappointed to find that it was there, but it only had half a pound of cotton and a few feet of cloth, what could it be used for?

After thinking about it for a while, he realized that he, the time traveler, had taken it for granted.

The current era is during the country's difficult period in the late 50s, when various supplies were in short supply. If you wanted to make a pair of trousers, you had to save a family's ration of cloth tickets.For a man of his caliber, it would be pure wishful thinking to find new bedding.

If this is the case, the bed is now thrown at the door with its dark and greasy bedding, and it suddenly becomes a treasure again.Originally, he planned to throw the matter away, but now he had to reconsider.

Song Wu thought for a moment and remembered that there was a winter bedding in the cabinet that had been replaced two months ago. It seemed that it had been washed once.Although it's not absolutely clean now, it's still tolerable.Otherwise, it wouldn't be put directly into the cabinet, and it would just be taken out for use first.The thick quilt can be used as the bottom of the bed, and the thinner mattress can be used as the quilt.

He went to the cupboard and took out the winter bedding he remembered.These beddings have a bit of smell, and are a bit yellow and damp.

"Forget it, let's make do with it first. It happens to be burning under the kang. Put the bedding up and remove the moisture together. It can still be used." After all, he is still poor, and no matter how much money he has now, he has nothing to buy. , there is really no way.

Song Wu stood on the porch at the door of the house, looking worried at the dark and greasy bed on the ground.

Throw it away, now I can’t bear to part with it, don’t throw it away, I’m worried about it again, and I don’t know what to do with them for a while.

At this moment, footsteps sounded from the central courtyard.Song Wu turned around and saw a charming young woman coming from the central courtyard to the front courtyard from the hall.His eyes were immediately fixed on the curvy body under the gray and blue clothes.

"This woman is quite beautiful, with a good figure." He sighed secretly in his heart, and at the same time, the memory of this woman suddenly came out in his heart, "Qin Huairu! The daughter-in-law of the Jia family in the Zhongyuan."

Song Wu felt hot in his heart.Of course, such impulsive expression definitely contains part of the greed that the bachelor in his predecessor had for many years, and he himself must only account for a small part.

Qin Huairu also saw Song Wu. She stopped strangely and looked up and down for a while. After looking at it several times, she asked with some uncertainty: "Are you Song Wu? Oh, I'm sorry, I mean..."

In Song Wu's memory, the two of them had never spoken.Qin Huairu accidentally called out the name she might have used in private. She was immediately embarrassed and wanted to change her name, but she didn't know what to call her, which made her face turn red.In Song Wu's eyes, she seemed to be even more alluring at this time.

He didn't care about being called a lame at the moment, and said: "He is a real lame, not a fake lame. It's nothing, brothers and sisters, are you going out?" There was a faint smile on his face, like this Qin Huairu's reaction was quite unexpected.She couldn't help but look at it a few more times, and her eyes slowly widened again without realizing it, with a surprised look on her face.

In her impression, Song Laizi was sloppy all day long, with a strange smell every day, and unkempt hair. She didn't expect that he would look so good after he was cleaned!

Even better than his man Jia Dongxu, and more masculine.

Qin Huairu felt panicked for no reason, and Song Wu looked at her so eagerly that she didn't dare to look at him anymore, her eyes dodged, and she quickly moved away.She just happened to see a pile of things at Song Wu's feet, and then her eyes suddenly lit up. She didn't care about any embarrassment and asked hurriedly: "Song...Song..."

Song Wu smiled and said: "Call me Song Wu."

"Oh, Song Wu..." Qin Huairu called out Song Wu's name, blushed again, and then asked: "Is this the dirty bedding you want to change? Do you want me to help you unpack and wash it?" She looked at her eyes Zhong regained his courage and looked at Song Wu with hope.

Song Wu's heart trembled when he saw her watery peach blossom eyes, and her request could just solve the problem he was facing.However, he was still a little hesitant, mainly because the bedding was too dirty, and there were many marks on it that were embarrassing for others to see.It would really damage his image for others to see those things, let alone such a touching little wife.

Qin Huairu didn't know what Song Wu was thinking, and thought he didn't want her to do this job, so she hurriedly said: "I only want 1 yuan, and I guarantee that the bedding will be clean inside and outside for you. Do you think that's okay?"

Song Wu didn't say anything, he was still hesitating in his heart.Qin Huairu was a little anxious and said, "How about 5 cents." She thought that although it would be laborious to unpack and wash a set of bedding, it would be a lot to earn [-] cents.

Song Wu made a plan in his mind. He smiled and said to Qin Huairu, "I'll give you 5 yuan."

"What? 5 yuan!" Qin Huairu covered her mouth in surprise and couldn't believe it.How could it be possible to add more money?If he adds so much, does he have any intentions?
Song Wu looked at her wary eyes and said: "If I give you 5 yuan, you can't just dismantle and wash this set of bedding. You also have to dismantle and wash my winter bed, and you also have to stretch the cotton again. Also, Yes, I also need to wash all the dirty clothes in the house, do you think that’s okay?”

After hearing Song Wu's words, Qin Huairu breathed a sigh of relief and was pleasantly surprised. It only cost 5 yuan to wash a few pieces of clothes and unpack and wash two sets of bedding. As for playing cotton, it only cost a few cents to find someone to do it.

Qin Huairu asked excitedly: "Really give me 5 yuan?"
