The sand brought back was evenly scattered on the newly paved ground, Xu Yi took a broom and swept the sand into those brick joints, and then the excess was evenly spread on the ground, and then stepped on the sand, stepping on the brick cracks one by one, so that the sand that seeped into the brick joints became a little solid, and then the excess sand was cleaned up, shoveled with a shovel, and scattered directly into the vegetable garden behind, the artichoke had grown to more than a foot high, and the stickiness of the land was too heavy at that time, and the godfather had also mixed sand in it, which would not be seen.

When I went back to look at it, I found that the color of the newly repaired brick joints was still not quite the same as the surrounding ones. Xu Yi groaned for a while, turned around and went to the kitchen, brought a basin of water, and simply splashed it on the ground, wetting the ground all over again, and then sweeping all the excess water into the brick cracks that seeped water before.

Prying up the brick on the ground in front of the stove, Xu Yi took a small shovel and dug out a large pile of grass and wood ash from the ash hole under the stove. Although there are some damp lumps, it doesn't matter, anyway, I don't expect this thing to absorb much water, just use it to cover up the traces of the ground passing, so that the dampness is better, and it saves the dust from flying everywhere.

Xu Yi took a shovel and filled the ashes and scattered them evenly on the ground, and then waited for a while, then took a broom to sweep up the ashes, but even if he swept them thoroughly, there was still a layer of ashes on the ground, and the whole ground became gray.

This grass ash looks black, it is a treasure in the countryside, and it can fertilize the field when it is poured in the field, and Xu Yi knew that it was because it contained a large amount of potassium salt.

In the past, the living conditions were not good, the daughter-in-law in the village would take a broken pot or something, lined with a little rag or something, and then sit on the top of the tank and load a pot of plant ash inside, and then pour water inside, the gray water that seeps out like tea is directly used to wash clothes, and the ability to remove dirt and oil stains is very strong, and even there is no soap or soap horn or anything, you can also use it to wash your hair, but this is very alkaline after all, so you must clean your hair after washing, otherwise your hair will be burned dry and yellow.

If any water or oil is spilled on the ground, it is even more common to use plant ash or sawdust to absorb water.

Xu Yi also saw the cleaner at the train station also sprinkle sawdust on the ground, sprinkle water and simmer it for a while, and then took a mop to mop the sawdust clean, so that the dirt on the ground was all mopped.

So it's normal to do it yourself. When someone saw it, at most, they thought they saw the house leaking, and then accidentally spilled water all over the ground when repairing, so they used plant ash to absorb water.

And after the ashes of the plants and trees have been made, the new brick joints have all become as virtuous as the old ones, and if you don't know it, you can't see any difference here, and if you wait to do it again, it will probably not attract attention.

Seeing that there were no flaws, Xu Yi couldn't help but let out a sigh of relief, hurriedly went to wash his hands, and then put the ladder, shovel and other things back in their places.

came back and cleaned the kitchen, and the remaining plant ash was swept back into the stove, seeing that there was nothing wrong, Xu Yi went to wash his face again, and deliberately went to look in the mirror, and found that there was nothing abnormal, so he was relieved. I found a few clothes in the cabinet and stuffed them into my backpack haphazardly, closed the door directly, and ran towards the door.

It was only after running over the dam that Xu Yi reacted: Did he lose a lot of blood? Why don't you feel it at all now?

After a large amount of blood loss, because the total amount of red blood cells is reduced, the oxygen-carrying capacity of the blood is insufficient, so the body is prone to hypoxia, even if it is not active, this is not comfortable, let alone like myself who is not idle, but I don't feel the slightest discomfort after working for so long, but I feel quite energetic.

But if the previous qiē was all a hallucination or a dream, then what happened to the extra stone?

Besides, how long have I been in a coma, what day is today, and what year is it?

Xu Yi only felt a burst of cold air coming out of his heart, and then felt a little cold on his body.

I was very nervous before, and then I was busy covering up the traces, and I didn't have a moment to spare, and I didn't feel anything.

At this time, I felt that my body was cold, and when I looked down, I realized that I was only wearing a shirt, and now I reacted, where did my clothes go?

Look at the time, there are forty or fifty minutes before the last train is leaving, and it is obviously too late to go back to find it.

Directly pulled the bag behind him, pulled another piece of clothing and put it on his body, and hurriedly ran forward along the road.

"Xu Yi, what are you running, what's the hurry?" As soon as the village chief left the house and walked slowly along the road, he heard the sound of rushing footsteps behind him.

"Third master, I'm in a hurry, it's more than five o'clock, I'm afraid I won't be able to catch the last train in the township, I have to rush back to the hospital, there is still work to be done, I'll go first." ”

"What's more than five o'clock, I looked at the time when I came out of the house just now, it's only a little past three o'clock, and I haven't been out for long, why is it more than five o'clock?" You kid, did you go back to sleep and fall asleep in a daze, and you misread the time? Look at the sun above your head, how can it be more than five o'clock? ”

"Ah, it's only past three o'clock, so maybe my watch is broken. But I didn't seem to get any water just now, and it choked me so much. As he spoke, Xu Yi took off his watch, adjusted the time to the mobile phone, and handed the mobile phone back to the village chief.

"Okay, you kid, you're sweating all over your head, don't go yet, go into the house to drink some water, rest your feet and then go, this next trip will be half past four, and it's too late to leave when you're done." I'm going to do something and I'll be back right away, they gave me the money for the last medicine some time ago. I forgot to tell you in the morning, I'm so old that I can't remember anything in my head. ”

"No, I still have money, enough to spend. Xu Yi listened to it and put his mind at ease, at least the date could be matched, so that he would not wake up to the vicissitudes of a hundred years.

"These two things! You wait. Saying that, the village chief turned around and left, Xu Yi had no choice but to push open the courtyard door and enter.

"Xiao Yi, here you go, I just saw you talking to your third master outside, and I'm soaking it for you. As she spoke, the third grandmother handed Xu Yi a cup of tea.

"Thank you, Sanma. Xu Yi quickly stood up and took the big teapot with both hands.

"Third grandmother, hasn't Brother Xiaotong been here for a while?"

Xiao Tong's big name is Wang Tong, and he is the grandson of the village chief, two years older than Xu Yi. Since the father and son of the village chief were separated, the daughter-in-law did not let the child come to the grandparents' house, but this blood relative is not to say that it can be stopped, and the child is still willing to run over if he has nothing to do.

Wang Tong was spoiled by his parents when he was a child, naughty all day long, and he didn't like to study, so he went home after junior high school, but he didn't want to farm, and he didn't stay for a few days and ran out to work with a few older people in the village.

In the past two years, the economy has been sluggish, and he doesn't make much money when he goes out, so Wang Tong hasn't gone out again, and Xu Yi can see him when he comes back sometimes.

However, Xu Yi has never been to his house when he comes back these times, and he always comes and goes in a hurry, so he hasn't seen Wang Tong for half a year.

However, the village chief always looks down on his grandson, and often says that he is not in tune, his eyes are high, and he is low or something, if the village chief is at home, Xu Yi will not dare to mention this.

"Xiao Tongshang only came here last Sunday, and he went to the city again in the past few days, and he said that he wanted to rent a vegetable stall there or something, and I didn't understand it. "The old lady is holding a dustpan, picking up the gravel in the rice, there is only one drying field in the village, but the village is not in a position to harden it with cement, this field is easy to bring the gravel or something to the rice, and when the rice is milled, it will become a small stone mixed in the rice, if you don't pick it out, it will be easy to get your teeth when you eat.

Xu Yi saw it, so he went to the kitchen to get a small bench and squatted to help the old lady pick it together, "Third grandmother, he won't work for a few days, don't do it again, it's not easy to sell vegetables, you have to get up early and be greedy for darkness, can he endure this hardship?"

"Alas, this kid just doesn't have a long nature, he does everything like this, this has to be as down-to-earth as you, and I will be blind to death. ”

"Look at what you said, third mother, Brother Xiaotong is still young, there will be time in the future, you see that I haven't graduated yet. ”

"What are you young, you see that there are people in this village who are the same age as the two of you, which one is not married, look at Li Xiang, he is one year younger than him, this child is three years old. You're not in a hurry, you're going to be a city guy in the future, people say that it's too late for people in the city to get married, Xiao Yi is going to be a doctor, and I'm afraid I won't be able to find a good girl?" said the third grandmother smiled, and then sighed, "Xiao Tong is different, this life is also a life of farming, at this age, he is still wandering outside, not to mention that he can't make money, this also delays the object, no matter how old he is, he will have to fight a bachelor for the rest of his life!"

"Third grandmother, maybe this time he will sell vegetables steadily, this young man went out to see the life in the city outside, few are unwilling to come back, for fear that they will nest in this ditch for the rest of their lives, you see that we have gone out in the village, how many have come back? You see that several of the people who went out with Brother Xiaotong have moved to the county seat, it doesn't matter if they are hard or tired, as long as they can learn something, they can have the ability to settle down in the future, what are they doing. ”

"That's the same, it's good in the city, at least you don't have to step on mud when it's cloudy and rainy. ”
