I don't know if Zhao Qingru's "coercion" played a little role, or if Zhao Xiaohua was secretly planning something, and the next few days were very rare and calm. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 infoEvery morning, Zhao Qingru, Lu Yingchun and Tian Scholar go to Zhao Qingshan for breakfast after a simple wash, and then go to work together; at noon and evening, Zhao Qingru and Lu Yingchun will get off work half an hour earlier and go home to be responsible for lunch and dinner. Tian Jia and Zhao Qingshan were responsible for physically demanding tasks such as chopping wood and carrying water.

When Zhao Qingru arrived in Shenjiawa Village, although it was not yet in time for the autumn harvest, the time was actually about the same. So the food during this period was actually quite good. Although it is a thin rice porridge made of sweet potatoes, potatoes, corn and other grains, it is also accompanied by multigrain steamed buns, vegetable cakes and something. Occasionally, you can also eat dumplings, vegetable and meat buns, or something.

Every week you get a little bit of meat, that's for sure.

On this day, Lu Yingchun habitually splashed the footwashing water into the yard, and after turning around and returning to the house, he hesitated for a long time and still didn't plug the door back. The country houses are still made of old-fashioned copper locks and wooden bolts. If the door bolt is inserted from the inside, the person outside will not be able to push the door open under normal circumstances.

"Xiao Ru, do you feel that the broken flower has been coming back later and later in the last few days? "It's hard for Lu Yingchun not to complain. Originally, there was nothing to do at night, even if you didn't go to bed early, you could hide in the quilt early, at least your feet that had just soaked warm would not be cold. As a result, a certain flower returns late every day. It hurt Lu Yingchun and Zhao Qingru to get up from the warm quilt at night and open the door for a certain flower.

Although the current social atmosphere is still very good on the whole, although it has not reached the point of not picking up the road and not closing the door at night, there are almost no traitors. But there is an exception to everything, especially knowing that there is a super fuel-efficient Shen family aunt living next door, and there is a very problematic old son at home who has not yet married a daughter-in-law, Zhao Qingru and Lu Yingchun don't dare to go out alone on weekdays. Naturally, at night, I dare not rest without locking the door.

After all, this is not as open as it was decades later, and the reputation of the girl's family is still very important. However, there is still a flower living in this house that I don't know whether to say that it is a lack of heart and eyes, or a certain flower whose own mind is not pure.

"Leave a flower alone, you can get into the bed. After a while, the feet that were finally soaked warm should be cold again. Zhao Qingru put the thick socks back on her feet, and after putting on the cotton shoes, it was not cold.

"What about you, Xiaoru?"

"I'll wait. Zhao Qingru glanced down at the watch on her wrist, and the hour hand was almost pointing to nine o'clock. At nine o'clock, in the future of a few decades, it is very likely that the current urbanites who work hard in the big cities have just returned home, finished eating or are preparing to eat the equivalent of a supper. But in 76 years, in the backward and poor Shenjiawa Village, I am afraid that the vast majority of the villagers went to bed early and prepared to rest.

"Yingchun, your words reminded me. I really have to talk to a certain flower, maybe I have to limit the curfew time!"

"It's long overdue. ”

Zhao Qingru thought about it and still felt that something was wrong, so she got up from the chair, took out a flashlight, and walked out.

"Xiao Ru, where are you going?"

"Next door. I thought that maybe I would let Brother Tian move to my brother's place and squeeze in, and the two of us would move next door. My brother had planned to wait for the autumn harvest to be over, and everyone was free, so he would set up two more rooms behind the house where he lived. ”

At the beginning, Zhao Qingru had thought that she and Lu Yingchun would live in a hut on the bamboo forest, let Tian Xue and her eldest brother Zhao Qingshan squeeze a room, and the big house would be cheap for Zhao Xiaohua to live alone. It's just that I didn't know who Tian Scholar was at that time, and this thought flashed away.

After a few days of running-in and testing without a trace, Zhao Qingru found that Tian Scholar has an introverted personality and likes to keep things in his heart, but his essence is not bad, and he is a friend worth making. Not to mention, in the past few days, Zhao Xiaohua has gone out every night, and the time to come back is one day later, Zhao Qingru and Lu Yingchun have to wait for a certain girl who is obviously deliberately late because they live in the same room with Zhao Xiaohua. Tian Xue, who lived next door, also rested late every day, insisted on waiting for someone to come back, and personally made sure that the courtyard door and doors and windows were closed before turning off the lights and going to sleep. Every morning, Tian Scholar is among the top few even if not the first to get up in the village.

In the decades of life, it is not easy to find a few like-minded friends.

"Xiao Ru, can Brother Tian agree?" Seeing this, Lu Yingchun lifted the quilt and prepared to get out of bed and go over with Zhao Qingru. After all, it's already a big night at this time, and it's better to avoid it a little bit just in case.

"I don't know, I don't think it's a big problem. Zhao Qingru was about to open the door and go out, when he heard a knock on the door.

"Lu Yingchun and Zhao Qingru, have you slept?"

"Xiao Ru, it's Brother Tian. After Lu Yingchun and Zhao Qingru glanced at each other, they hurriedly said, "Brother Tian, we haven't slept yet, you can push the door and come in." ”

"Brother Tian, it's so late, is there something wrong?"

"Actually, it's not a big deal. After Tian Xue pushed the door into the house, he habitually looked around the room, and frowned slightly after seeing Zhao Xiaohua's unusually messy bedding.

"Haven't come back yet?"

"yes. Day by day is getting later. ”

"I pondered in the house for a few days, and I didn't think it would be a problem to go on like this. So, I thought about whether I moved to the warehouse and squeezed with the male intellectuals there, Lu Yingchun and Zhao Qingru, and the two of you moved to my house to sleep. Although my house faces west, it may be a little smaller for two people, so I don't have to wait like I do at night. ”

Tian Xue didn't know that Zhao Qingru had found out that he would personally check the courtyard door again every night, and in the past few days, he had found several times that Zhao Xiaohua, who returned late, did not lock the courtyard door after he came back, so he hid it like this. Thankfully, the door was still locked. But this does not mean that the door of this room was locked by Zhao Xiaohua. In case one day, that Zhao Xiaohua slept until midnight, got up and opened the door, it was not impossible.

"Coincidentally, Yingchun and I are also trying to mention this matter to Brother Tian. When Zhao Qingru closed the door, he habitually paid a little attention to the courtyard that was not far away.

"Huh?"

"That's right, my brother plans to start a few more halls after the autumn harvest is free. When the house was built, the three of us moved in. I thought I would make do here during this time, but now it seems that a certain flower is really restless. So I thought that it would be better for me to move to Brother Tian's house during this period of Spring Festival, Brother Tian, you should be a little aggrieved and squeeze with my brother, and get through this time first. Who would have thought ......"

"Who would have thought of a piece, didn't they?" Tian Scholar's eyes lit up obviously, and there was a faint smile in his eyebrows.

"Yes, yes. Lu Yingchun on the side nodded again and again.

"Okay, I'll move in tomorrow. This is really going to cause trouble for Brother Zhao. Tian Xue did not refuse, but responded very happily. In fact, after getting along with each other during this time, although the time is still short, Tian Scholar also saw the real and somewhat contradictory temperament of the Zhao family brothers and sisters. I don't like to be taken advantage of, but if I am recognized and become friends, in fact, the brother and sister don't care much about whether they suffer or not.

Of course, whether it is a field scholar or Lu Yingchun, although their family backgrounds are quite average, they are not the kind of masters who like to take advantage of others and have impure minds.

"Well, it's not too early. I'll go back to the house first. Tomorrow ......"

"It's business as usual tomorrow, and I'm going to take half a day off in the morning. Zhao Qingru interrupted Tian Xue's words, winked at Tian Xue and Lu Yingchun, and then explained softly, "Anyway, you have to surprise a certain flower, don't you." Otherwise, the flower is next door every day these days, and it will be a few hours at a time, which is really hard. ”

"Not really. I also have melon seeds, peanuts, and candy. I guess that the aunt of the Xu family is afraid that she will even regret her intestines. Lu Ying laughed very unkindly, not hiding the gloating expression on his face at all.

If it weren't for the fact that Zhao Qingru and Lu Yingchun moved to the empty house on the bamboo forest, the time was still short, Zhao Qingru and Lu Yingchun had been vigilant in and out of activities on weekdays, and there was still a man like Tian Xue at home, so the Xu family's aunt didn't dare to go too far for the time being. But the temptation is not without it, Zhao Xiaohua comes back later and later day by day, and always carelessly forgets to close the courtyard door is actually a temptation.

This kind of calculation that thinks he is clever, but in fact already belongs to Sima Zhao's heart, Zhao Qingru is actually quite helpless. If you have a plan, you can even clean it up, but I'm afraid that it won't have a big effect, and if you don't get it right, it will cause a fishy body, after all, it's just a small fight, and it hasn't caused actual damage. If left unchecked, it's disgusting like a green-headed fly.

This made Zhao Qingru really feel very aggrieved. Just as Tian Xue had just left, and had not yet returned to his own house, a certain flower stepped on a cheerful step, hummed an out-of-tune tune, and happily pushed open the courtyard door and came back from the outside (next door). Sure enough, the courtyard door just closed very casually.

"Zhao Xiaohua, close the courtyard door!" Lu Yingchun, who was standing at the door of the house, saw that Zhao Xiaohua had forgotten to lock the courtyard door again, so he reminded him.

"What's the matter, no one has come back this big night. Zhao Xiaohua raised her eyes a little weakly and looked outside the courtyard.

After Lu Yingchun and Zhao Qingru glanced at each other, they immediately turned around and entered the house very tacitly, and then closed the door decisively. No one is a fool, I wanted my wife to spend the last night peacefully, since I want to play, then it is better to have a little more fun.

Zhao Xiaohua was dumbfounded. Zhao Xiaohua, who came back to her senses, immediately shouted in the yard, knocked on the wooden door and kicked it for a long time, but failed to alarm the people in the house to get up and open the door.

The house where Zhao Qingru lived was located in the bamboo forest, which was relatively remote, and there was no one next to him except for the Xu family's aunt's family who lived nearby. The only person who was alarmed, the aunt of the Xu family, had indeed not slept yet, and was even distressed by the melon seeds and peanuts that had been consumed too quickly recently, so she was so defenseless that she was startled by Zhao Xiaohua's movements.

The aunt of the Xu family listened with her ears pricked up for a while, and then realized that the words that Zhao Xiaohua said in front of her these days were all fooling her. What do you say about the two little beautiful girls in the family, they are well-behaved and obedient in front of her, like a mouse who has seen a cat. The truth of the matter is that the lazy girl was suppressed by those two little girls.

The aunt of the Xu family is called a pain in the flesh, because there are not many melon seeds and peanuts left in the family.

"Open the door!" Zhao Qingru, Lu Yingchun, open the door for me!" Zhao Xiaohua kicked the wooden door again, who would have wanted to kick the thumb of the big foot, and Zhao Xiaohua's tears immediately came out.

"Zhao Xiaohua, if you want us to open the door for you, it's okay. We have to make three chapters of the law! The first rule is that things that don't belong to you are not allowed to be touched!"

"Okay!" Zhao Xiaohua, who was blowing a cold wind outside the door, shrunk her neck and gritted her teeth in agreement.

"Article 2, except in special circumstances, you must not go home at the latest until 8 p.m. at night. Responsible for closing the courtyard door and the door at night!"

"I can't do this! I don't have a watch, I don't know the specific time, unless Zhao Qingru you give me your watch!" Zhao Xiaohua immediately realized that these were the two stinky girls in the house, and she was dissatisfied with her late return for the last few days. Zhao Xiaohua's eyes rolled slightly, and she thought of an excuse in her favor.

"How dare she think about it. Lu Yingchun let out an exclamation, then raised his voice and shouted outside the door, "Zhao Xiaohua, since you don't know the specific time, don't go out this big night, so as not to lock yourself in the courtyard outside and blow the cold wind." ”

Lu Ying...... Ah sneeze! Ah sneeze ......" Zhao Xiaohua outside the door was about to refute, but she didn't want to itch her nose, so she sneezed several times in a row.

"I'm cold, quick, open the door for me!"

"You start with the second one, and you don't say yes. ”

"Yes, yes. I'm all up to you, so I'll do it. Ahh

"Third, keep the house, the courtyard and the kitchen neat and tidy, and take turns cleaning the yard. ”

"Okay, open the door for me!

"Close the courtyard door, and after signing the agreement, we will open the door!"

Zhao Xiaohua sniffed, had to turn around and plug in the wooden bolt of the courtyard gate, and then obediently signed her name crookedly on the white paper, and re-stuffed the so-called "Three Chapters of the Law" through the crack in the door.

After getting the "Three Chapters of the Law" signed by Zhao Xiaohua, Zhao Qingru opened the door slowly. Of course, before opening the door, I still kept an eye on it, and placed a long bench in front of the door, and the person stood against the wall, not directly facing the door. Zhao Xiaohua waited for Zhao Qingru to remove the wooden bolt, and sure enough, she kicked the door directly with her foot.

Because of the blockage of the long bench, Zhao Xiaohua's kicking force was obviously weakened a lot. Coupled with the position where Zhao Qingru was standing, Zhao Xiaohua obviously failed to calculate people.

"Close the door! Don't forget that you signed the Three Chapters of the Law. Zhao Qingru didn't bother to pay attention to Zhao Xiaohua anymore, and walked directly to her bed, took off her shoes, and went to bed. Of course, before pulling down the curtain, I didn't forget to blow out the kerosene lamp on the table next to the bed.

"Hey, Zhao Qingru, you blew out the kerosene lamp, what should I do?!" Zhao Xiaohua didn't expect Zhao Qingru to be so desperate, leaving no light for her at all. Zhao Xiaohua doesn't have a flashlight, the problem is that the flashlight needs a battery, and the battery is not cheap.

"We don't care what you do. Lu Yingchun, who had already hid under the covers, gave Zhao Qingru a thumbs up with the dim light of the small flashlight, and then lowered his voice and said, "You should be honest today." ”

"Who knows. "Anyway, as long as you get through tonight...... Zhao Qingru has no bottom in his heart, if he really doesn't care about it, the tile pot touches the porcelain, how can he feel a loss.

"Yes. ”

As Zhao Qingru guessed, Zhao Xiaohua was feeling the dark, rummaging through the boxes and cabinets to find her flashlight, not thinking about fighting back immediately. But when she thought about it, she had been grinding with the Xu family's aunt next door for a few days before she had discussed it, and Zhao Xiaohua, who had just suffered a small loss, felt that she still put up with this breath for the time being, and waited for a few days to relax her vigilance.

Thinking that as long as she succeeded, she would be avenged for anything, and she only felt that she saw a glimmer of hope in an instant. Because I was reluctant to use the flashlight and didn't wash up, I simply cleaned up the bed, took off my coat and got into the cold quilt.

The next day, Zhao Xiaohua caught a cold wind because she blew a cool breeze in the yard for a while at night.

"Xiaoru, what now?" Lu Yingchun listened to Zhao Xiaohua who was huddled on the bed, and from time to time there were a few coughs, which was a little unbearable.

"I'll take care of her. Zhao Qingru whispered in Lu Yingchun's ear, "By the way, transfer our things." I was going to take a few hours off in the morning. ”

"Why don't I stay?"

"Don't bother, I've got enough for myself. "Not to mention that both of them took leave, and lost more work. The most important point is that Zhao Qingru also wants to take advantage of the fact that there is no one in the house, put away the entire bed, and then move the wooden bed where Tian Xue slept next door to the end of the house. God doesn't know it. If Lu Yingchun stayed, wouldn't he want to ......

As for a certain flower that unfortunately caught the wind and cold, Zhao Qingru had already thought of a countermeasure, and she was not worried that she would see it at all. A black pill with white and black guarantees a night's sleep until the sky is dark.

Lu Yingchun thought about it and agreed. When the three of them went to Zhao Qingshan together, they moved Tian Xue's already small luggage by the way. Zhao Qingshan added some of the leftover multigrain rice from the previous night and boiled it into thin rice porridge, and after knowing that Zhao Xiaohua had a cold, he left her most of the sea bowl.

Zhao Qingru carried the enamel cup containing the rice porridge and went back to the house on the other side of the bamboo forest, while Lu Yingchun, Tian Xue and Zhao Qingshan took the farm tools and went straight to the field. Speaking of which, the harvest of autumn rice has already begun. Zhao Qingru's request for leave like this is actually quite easy to provoke criticism. Fortunately, now there is a ready-made excuse, who let Zhao Xiaohua suddenly become seriously ill and stay in bed.

After Zhao Qingru returned to the house on the side of the bamboo forest, he closed the courtyard door at the speed of light, and then habitually glanced through the wall at the Xu family's courtyard not far away. The Xu family didn't expect her to come back, and no one seemed to be at home at this time. Really lucky.

Since there was no one, Zhao Qingru naturally wouldn't stay in his yard longer, and after entering the house, he woke up Zhao Xiaohua.

"Hey, wake up. I brought you some rice porridge, drank it, took the medicine, and then slept again, and it will be fine. ”

"Would you be so kind to bring me rice porridge?" Zhao Xiaohua, who was sleeping in a daze, only feeling hot for a while and cold for a while, opened her eyes and looked at Zhao Qingru in surprise, she couldn't believe that Zhao Qingru would be so kind.

"Believe it or not. Zhao Qingru took out a bowl from the kitchen that looked fairly clean, but still felt greasy, and poured out the rice porridge in the enamel cup. Then he poured some hot water into the water cup that Zhao Xiaohua usually drank on weekdays, and put the black black piece in front of Zhao Xiaohua.

"After drinking the porridge, I took the medicine. I said Zhao Xiaohua, you are also a girl's family, pay a little attention to personal hygiene. Know that the disease comes from the mouth. Looking back......"

"Long-winded! I don't know if I don't eat cleanly, I don't know if I'm sick!" Zhao Xiaohua directly interrupted Zhao Qingru to continue, picked up the bowl, didn't wash his face and brushed his teeth, and directly drank half of the rice porridge with a snort. After drinking a bowl of rice porridge, the person suddenly warmed up a lot.

"Less. Zhao Xiaohua licked her lower lip unsatisfied, and swallowed the medicine with hot water, of course, she still held the pill before eating, and looked at it for a long time, "Zhao Qingru, where did you get this medicine? Why does it look different from those medicines?"

"This is a good medicine that my mother brought from abroad to treat colds and flu. If it weren't for the fear that you would turn around and pass the cold on to me and Yingchun, I wouldn't bother to care about you. If you don't take it, give me back the pill!"

"You're so beautiful!" Zhao Xiaohua immediately threw the medicine into her mouth, and then drank several sips of hot water in one go. Zhao Xiaohua is not afraid of Zhao Qingru giving her any more laxatives, anyway, she has also thought about it, she is not afraid of wearing shoes with bare feet, it is a big deal to break up.

Zhao Qingru did not give Zhao Xiaohua any laxatives, but the cold medicine given to Zhao Xiaohua had a rather fatal drowsiness reaction. In fact, the vast majority of cold medicines in later generations had this reaction. Especially for people like Zhao Xiaohua who eat white and black for the first time, it is basically one by one.

Zhao Xiaohua can be regarded as asleep. Zhao Qingru immediately turned around and put the big bed he and Lu Yingchun slept in in his secret warehouse, and then ran to the next hut and took away the wooden bed of Tian Xue. Who would have thought that Zhao Qingru would make an unexpected discovery.

"What is this?"
