Rebirth Farmhouse

Chapter 93

Qin Dafu asked Qin Ye, Qin Xianxiuxian and others to go to the third grandpa's house to look at the house and clean it up a bit.Then the old Qintou asked Qin Ergui and Sanshun to move the things he sorted out.

The three straw-roofed houses of the third grandfather's house were very empty, with basically no furniture, and the pot was taken away to the county, only the stove and the pit.

In addition, there were no seats on the kang, at least there was a broken table and two lame stools.

The house is full of mud walls, not pasted with paper, dusty, and there are even places where the soil has fallen off. The ground is muddy, a bit potholed, and it has not been compacted.

There is no hollow shed on the roof, and the handles tied with sorghum straw are directly exposed. They are too old and dark, and there are long cobwebs and soot hanging from them.Looking up, the dust falls off, and people can squint their eyes.

Soon the second mother let her grandson push the wheelbarrow, and she carried the load to Qin Dafu's family to deliver the agreed set of living utensils, pots and pans, and even cooking brooms, grates, grate beams, and spatulas. all have.

Although they are all old household items and the bowls are cracked, Liu's is still very grateful. The mother-in-law has always said that the second aunt is annoying and smart, and she is compared with her when there is nothing to do, so the two families don't have much contact.In order not to let her mother-in-law criticize her, Liu seldom dealt with the second mama in the past, but she did not expect her to help him a lot.

"Second aunt, thank you so much. If you hadn't brought these things, we would have taken turns eating."

The second mother smiled and said: "What's the matter, no one has a dark time, you listen to me, work hard, and you will get better in a few days. It's better than a big family together, noisy , being angry with your mother-in-law all day, it’s boring, it’s better to come out.”

Mrs. Liu quickly thanked her again, but she refused to go along with saying that her mother-in-law was not good.

The second mama saw that they were in a mess, and that Mrs. Liu had no intention of entertaining guests, so she took her leave first, and Mrs. Liu hurriedly sent them out, "Mother, when everything is cleaned up, I will invite you to come and sit at home."

The second mother laughed loudly, "Of course, our two families have to move around a lot, and we have wanted to get close to you for a long time." After saying that, she said goodbye and took her grandson away.

Not long after, Zhou Suren also sent the child to bring the promised farm tools, an old big shovel, and a few small shovels for digging wild vegetables. Liu quickly thanked them, and they didn't leave much behind. and left.

Mrs. Guo still sent half a bag of noodles in person, and Mrs. Liu did not refuse when she saw this, just like the second mother and others, she hurriedly continued, "Sister-in-law, thank you very much, for so many years, the family has not lost With your help."

Guo said with a smile: "Although we are not a grandfather, we are a grandfather, and we are still a family. Don't be polite to me."

Mrs. Liu was sincerely grateful, even if Mrs. Guo had some plans, but she didn't tell her directly, and she had been helping a lot, she also sincerely thanked her, thinking that her family would get better in the future, she would have to repay him.

In addition, the third grandfather and the third mother also brought things. They are all living people, and they will give what they know they need. It is absolutely useless not to give.

Qin Dafu, Liu Shi and others were grateful again and again.

And the neighbors who had a good impression of Qin Dafu and the Liu family also came to visit, brought some homely things to congratulate, and said a few festive words.

After all the congratulatory people dispersed, Liu took the children to tidy up the house. Although it was more dilapidated than the Qin family's house, it was up to him to make decisions, and it was extraordinarily vigorous to tidy up.

Xiuyao is even more so, her eyeballs hurt from looking forward to the separation, so she can clean up very quickly, "Second sister, hurry up, let's go and sweep the kang." There are only two kangs in the house, and there must be a man in the house, and a woman. a house.

Xiuxian and Xiuyao went to clean the kang. While sweeping, Xiuyao was having fun, and took the opportunity to tickle the second sister. She was a little smug and forgot that it wasn't the third sister. He also threw her on the window sill and tickled her.

Xiuyao laughed so hard that she couldn't breathe, she kept begging for mercy, Xiurong cleaned up the house in the yard because she thought it was dirty, Xiuqin was at the door, and when she heard it she said angrily: "You two, stop cleaning quickly, don't worry about it. The shape of a girl makes my mother laugh."

Xiuyao immediately called out: "Sister, help, help!"

While tickling her, Xiuxian smiled ferociously, and said haha: "You shout, even if you shout your throat, no one will save you."

Xiuqin couldn't help laughing when she saw the second sister's schoolboy appearance, Xiurong ran in, "Look at you two, don't collapse the kang."

When Xiuxian was distracted, Xiuyao ran away from under her armpits, but as soon as she ran to the end of the kang, she felt her feet go soft, and she screamed, "Ah—plop," the kang collapsed, and Xiuyao stepped on it. A broken earthen brick fell, and a puff of dust exploded, enveloping her inside.

Xiurong laughed so hard, Xiurong shouted: "Father, mother, eldest brother, second brother, come and see, Yaoyao has become a fairy!"

The people outside who were busy cleaning the yard and the gate hurried in to have a look. Xiuyao was standing in the kang cave, disheveled, looking like she was about to cry, and couldn't help laughing.

Qin Xian laughed the hardest, and threw himself on the edge of the kang, "Haha, hahaha, hahahaha, I'm dying of laughter."

Xiuxian was afraid that her mother would beat her up, so she hurriedly said: "Mother, the third grandpa's house is too weak and dilapidated." The implication is that it has nothing to do with them.

Qin Dafu laughed and said, "Pull your sister up soon." Then he said to Qin Ye, "Daye, go to your third grandfather's house to borrow a brick model, pick up a few earthen bricks tomorrow, and when they are dry, let's beat the kang well. "

Qin Ye responded and ran out quickly, and Qin Dafu asked the children to clean up quickly so that they could sleep at night.

Mrs. Liu looked at Xiuxian and said with a smile: "It's good that they let us live. We should be grateful. Although this house is broken, it also solves our urgent needs. Why does it cost two to three hundred dollars a year. I will tell you Said, we all have to remember that if we have money, we will immediately return it to others.”

It is their generosity and affection that others take the initiative to help, and I can't take it for granted. When the conditions are better in the future, I have to return all the things they gave.

She said to Xiuyao again: "Don't you and your second brother know how to write two characters? Write down everything from someone's family, don't lose it, especially the noodles from your aunt's family."

Xiuyao hummed, "Mom, I've forgotten everything." Then, she pulled out a piece of white cloth from her bosom, on which was clearly written with wicker charcoal, and those who couldn't write were like pictograms. Anyway, just know it yourself.

Mrs. Liu looked it over and said with a smile: "You girl, you have a good memory."

Xiuyao giggled and said, "Mother, you are in good spirits on happy occasions!"

Separated, haha, it's so XX happy, she feels almost ascension, no longer have to look at the face of the old woman, no longer have to listen to the second aunt's mouth swearing, no longer have to listen to the third aunt , lol, no need to look at those three childlike witch eyes of Xiumei, Xiuting, and Xiujuan again!

Hahaha!
Thinking in her heart, she rolled onto the kang, and Liu exclaimed, "Don't fall!"

Thanks to Xiuxian's quick eyesight and quick hands, she grabbed Xiuyao's feet and prevented her from rolling into the kang hole again.

Xiuyao coughed twice, "Oh, it's too choking."

Although it is a broken house, it can't be cleaned up for a while. So far, it has only swept the cobwebs from the fence, cleaned the upper and lower floors of the house, and then brought in the only belongings.

There is no food cabinet, so the food is packed in baskets, and then hung on the fence with a big wooden hook.

There was only one pot in the house, and it was first placed in the east room where the kang was not collapsed. Qin Dafu now mixed the mud and sealed the sides of the pot so that he could light a fire and cook.

The broken table and broken stool can be dealt with with a little stone padding.

Although the yard is not big, there are also pig pens and chicken pens. With a little tidying up, the chicken coop can raise two chickens.

A piece of the south wall collapsed, so I used tree branches to block it. Anyway, there is nothing valuable in the house, so I am not afraid of being stolen.

The courtyard gate is quite broken, and the wheat grass on the gate tower is almost rotten. It will be repaired tomorrow with mud.

There are no other trees in the yard except for a small Chinese toon bud at the foot of the east wall, but a lot of grass has grown. They pull it out first, and turn around to grow some onions and garlic.

When the screen wall fell down, we first used wooden sticks to set up a shelf, and later used sorghum straw and velvet bark to tie it into a tent. This is a ready-made screen wall, which can also be used as a fence. The outside is a gate, and vegetables can be grown inside.

Of the two tanks, the bigger one was used as a water tank. Qin Ye used the shoulder pole and bucket lent by Zhou Lizheng's family to carry water first, and filled the tank to the brim.When I was there before, the second aunt and the third aunt would be weird every time they carried water, and he didn't like to listen to what they said, but he didn't care about it either.Originally, he thought that as long as the family was together, he would feel better if he was a little bit tired.But as time goes on, people don't want to live with them, even grandparents think they are burdensome and drive them out, that's fine.Qin Ye felt that he didn't have any knots anymore, so it's better to separate out, work more by himself, and let his younger sisters rest. Whose girls are not pampered, and there is no one like their family who treats girls like animals.

He still went to fetch water from the well at the east end of the village, and when he came back, he passed Lao Qin's house. The second aunt and the third aunt were grinding their teeth at the door. Seeing him, the third aunt smiled and said, "Daye, carry water, where can I borrow a bucket pole? Help us fill our water tanks too."

Originally thought that he would come to borrow a bucket and a pole, but the third aunt wanted him to fill it up for the house, but she didn't know that he didn't come, and she didn't know where she borrowed it.

Qin Ye paused for a while, said hello, and then said: "Mistress San, I'm still waiting at home, I'm afraid I don't have time to choose." Then he went home.

The third aunt was so angry that she spat: "Second sister-in-law, look at how proud they are, they seem to have got a baby after being kicked out."

The second aunt glanced at her, and said: "I think it's good to be separated. I still think about it. Your second brother is definitely a donkey. No matter how poor he is when he goes out, he is still in charge of his own family."

The third aunt persuaded: "Second sister-in-law, bear with me, it's only the two of us at home now, what are you afraid of, I don't think the old lady dares to do anything to us. You see, she hasn't come to take care of us for a long time."

The second aunt snorted, "Who cares about her?"

The third aunt took her hand, "Go, go and see my sister-in-law's house."

The second aunt still didn't talk much to the Liu family, and didn't want to go, "What's so interesting."

The third aunt smiled and said, "Look at what good food they eat. Parents gave them such a little food."

The second aunt couldn't bear it anymore, so she simply followed her to see, she wanted to see how the sister-in-law could be a clever woman.

As for Qin Dafu's family, the Liu family asked Xiuyao to light a fire and cook soon, depending on the weather.In addition to bringing food, they also ordered some black flour rolls and some sauce balls from the old Liu's family.At that time, Mrs. Zhang said that it was inconvenient to cook by herself just after they were separated, and if they had no pot or stove, they would let them eat at night and cook by themselves tomorrow.

But Mrs. Liu declined without hesitation, thinking that since they have already moved out, what are they doing to see the faces of the third aunt and the second aunt for a meal?She is not stupid.

Originally, she thought that she could deal with it at night, but seeing that the children were so happy, she thought she still had to find a way.Even if it is a simple meal, as long as you put your mind into it, you can naturally make delicious meals.She doesn't want to use "dealing" to entertain her family as soon as the family is separated. A good life is determined by a good attitude, and it starts from the first day of separation.
