Chapter 93: The Shack

|151Kanshu.com text|.| Shacks are called shacks, and they're not really shacks.

It's just that it's smaller than the house where you usually live, but as soon as you enter, there is a big kang directly opposite, and under the window is a stove, and there is no mat on the kang, and the window paper is broken.

The only feature that is stronger than the outside is that it shades the wind, and in addition, you can see the white haze when you gasp.

Zhang came in, found a broken chair in the corner, blew the dust on it, and put the package on it." Peach blossom, sit here, mother clean up the house."

Where can peach blossoms sit?" I'll clean up with you."

My daughter is getting more and more sensible these days, and Zhang's heart is very comforted." Okay, let's wipe the mat."

On the north side of the house is the kang, in front of the window is the stove, on the east wall there is a mat.

Zhang carried the branch into the house, lit it in the stove pit, and the peach blossom squatted down to burn the kang.

When the peach blossoms were on the fire, Zhang spread the mat on the kang, turned around and lit a fire on the stove, dug up some snow outside, took it back and threw it into the pot.

"Sister-in-law." I looked up and saw Cheng Erlang walking in with something in his arms, and there was a bit of embarrassment on his face.

When I walked to the side of the kang, I touched the head of the peach blossom, and put everything I was holding on the kang. The peach blossom looked up, there was a transparent white paper, which should be window paper, and in addition, there were two bowls and two pairs of chopsticks, and some small jars.

There weren't many things, those little jars, peach blossoms guessed it was salt and oil, and finally I even saw an oil lamp inside.

Zhang had already cleaned the pot and filled it with water, so he had time to come over and see the things on the kang, and he couldn't help but worry." Erlang, this is your family's thing, your daughter-in-law doesn't know about it, you can take it back, take it back, save your daughter-in-law from messing with you, we are fine, we can deal with it."

As long as the Lord leaves that home, it doesn't matter.

Cheng Erlang scratched his head with a smile. Sister-in-law, it's fine."

"No, take it back." The Zhang family wants to live a quiet life, but they don't want the Wang family to come and make trouble.

"Sister-in-law, it's really fine, when Dad asked me to come over last night, I cleaned it up last night, and my family won't say anything."

Hearing him say this, the Zhang family didn't let him take it back, and Cheng Erlang also looked embarrassed. Sister-in-law, it's our Cheng family who is sorry for you, don't worry, big brother will definitely know your good when the time comes."

Cheng Erlang's comfort. Erlang, you should go back early, this is to clean up the house, and there is nothing to do."

"Sister-in-law, if you have something, you can call me in the village." Cheng Erlang did not refuse this time.

He knows the temper of his family, and he really helps his sister-in-law to stay away, and he saves the time to help.

Sent Cheng Erlang away, the fire in the pot was also warm, Zhang scooped it into the wooden basin, brought it to the kang, and put all the things Cheng Erlang brought into the chair, and took out the rag from the package and still in the water.

After the kang mat is wiped clean, although it is wiped with a wet rag, because the kang heat will dry instantly, there is a place to sit at home.

"Peach blossom, go and sit on the kang, just clean up." Zhang held her daughter and put her on the kang and took off her shoes.

Turn around and take the package on the chair to the kang, pour out the quilt and wrap it around the peach blossoms.

Zhang looked at it and smiled faintly, wiped all the places in the house that could be wiped with warm water, and after cleaning up, it was noon, and he took four buns and put them in the pot to heat.

There was no curtain, so I could only find four branches to stand in the pot, but the bark was cut clean with a knife, and it was so white and clean that it was also clean. The pot was hot with buns. Zhang took advantage of this effort to paste the window paper. The white flour was turned out from the things brought by Cheng Erlang. Only one handful was made into a paste just to glue the window paper. People in the countryside are honest, so that there is no need to worry about bad people.

Peach Blossom was still worried, beckoned Zhang to come over, and muttered a few words in her ear. Let's dig a hole outside the window and in the doorway, and we'll cover it with a board during the day, and we'll cover it with grass at night, and we'll know if there's a bad guy.

"That's a good idea." Zhang nodded. It's just that the soil is frozen, and it's not that easy to dig."

"Then pour some water over the doorway and the window, bury a layer of nails first, freeze it, if anyone comes, you can step on it, and during the day we will put a plank on it."

Zhang smiled. That's a good idea, so let's do it, and I'll find out if there are any nails."

The window paper was pasted, the kang was burning again, the house was warm, Zhang really took out a nail from the frame on the east wall, and Peach Blossom also put on her shoes and went down to the ground to help.

The nails were washed up and fixed in the soil, the windows and the door were covered with soil, and the water was poured on them.

"Mother, that's good." Peach Blossom thinks this bun is more fragrant than usual.

After coming out of Cheng's house in the morning, Zhang's face didn't show any displeasure, and he was also very quick, maybe he was too busy, he didn't even have time to be in a daze, or he was really not sad.

"yes, my mother thinks it's good." Zhang's feelings moved, and he turned his mind to talk to his daughter." Seeing that it is approaching the end of the month, my mother has to make her purse, and when she changes the money, she will buy more rice and vegetables, and the days will gradually get better."

There are really a lot of things to buy.Peach Blossom also thinks so.This pot of steamed buns at home can last until the end of the month.Although Zhang's hand still has fifty big money.But during this time, I can't go to the town to catch up with the purse.

"Mother, I'll do it with you, I'll take it to the shop and sell it, and I'll hand it over to Sun's family if I make it." This also counts as two incomes.

"Okay."

"Mother, anyway, it's just the two of us, let's have two meals a day in the future, I only eat one bun in the morning, and two in the evening." Peach blossoms are counted, you can't sleep when you're hungry, or it's important to eat enough at night.

Zhang's heart was sad, wiping his daughter's head." Don't worry, there's a pot of steamed buns, and you can eat the peach blossoms if you want."

Peach Blossom shook her head.Zhang's daughter was laughing.Which Cheng thought about the next few days.That's the case.Even if she was too hot to eat the buns.The daughter didn't eat it.Only then did she know that what her daughter said was true.

At night, lying on the kang, Peach Blossom only felt that the strong wind outside was about to blow the house down, but fortunately, the oil lamp in the house was on, and Zhang sat on the side and embroidered his purse.

In just one day, more than a dozen families in the village heard that the Cheng family had driven their eldest daughter-in-law and granddaughter to live in a shack in the field.

How honest and honest the people in the village are, they all say that the Cheng family has done too much, what can Widow Zhang do when she is pregnant, she and Cheng Dalang eloped together, and Zhang's wife is the wife.

These countrymen don't know much, they only know that people can't forget their roots, Cheng Dalang has been admitted to Xiucai, and over the years, everything in the family has not relied on the Zhang family, and even the filial piety to his parents has been done by the Zhang family.

Now Cheng Dalang is in the show, disgusted with Zhang's bad posture, and is going to unload the mill and kill the donkey.

After eating two meals of sweet potatoes and sorghum rice, Cheng Dalang was not as excited as in the morning, and there was only one broken quilt at home.

The tiger girl was arranged on the small bed.Cheng Dalang rolled to the kang with Widow Zhang in his arms early.It doesn't matter if the tiger girl in the small bed sleeps or not.The two of them are inevitably making out again.

Hu Niu was lying on the small kang, I thought that life would be better, I didn't think that Widow Zhang's mother-in-law was worse than Zhang's to her, it seems that I will find an opportunity to show my hand in the future, let them taste the sweetness, so that my life can be better.

Listening to the rough panting of men and women on the big kang opposite.Tiger Niu couldn't help but eavesdrop with her ears sideways.Think about the men she slept with in the previous life.That kind of xiaohun taste.It's really unforgettable.

The old lady of Westinghouse couldn't sleep after turning over and over, and pushed the old man Cheng next to her." It's not a matter that the East House always comes here to get things, how will I live this day in the future?"

At this time, I remembered that it was the Zhang family that was better.At least after the separation, I didn't come here to get anything.I even sent things.I thought about the appearance of the Zhang family during the day.I was not a good woman.

"It's better to live a life.Peach Blossom Lady is a good hand.Now she's also blocking her breath.Wait a while.,Let Da Lang bring people back."

"Pick her up, then she doesn't think she's a sweetheart." Mrs. Cheng scoffed.

"You old woman, why don't you understand?Do you see that little Zhang's is the material for living?We live in a village.You don't know what she's like.Peach Blossom Niang has a temper and says cruel things, that's also our family's Dacheng, I'm sorry for her.Now I'm still bringing Xiao Zhang's family.If it were you, you'd have already made a fuss.Fortunately, people haven't made trouble."

Mrs. Cheng was silent.

Mrs. Cheng is making trouble, but she is also living a serious life.

On weekdays, she doesn't like Zhang's, but she knows that Zhang's is a person who can live, otherwise, with the temperament of Erlang's daughter-in-law, where can she help her.

When Mrs. Cheng thought of this, she felt even more annoyed, and she couldn't sleep more and more, and pushed Cheng Laohan beside her a few times, and heard snoring from time to time.
