And leave the book in triplicate, after writing is to let Zhengyuan and Shumin press the handprint, Shumin glanced at the book and left the book slightly, and found that the font is the traditional Chinese characters of ancient China, thinking "It's okay, it's okay, most of them are recognized." ”

He pressed his handprint and stood aside obediently.

Zhengyuan was not so relaxed, he felt that every step of his steps was so heavy, and when the last handprint was finished, he seemed to have exhausted all his strength, and sat on the stool decadently, looking at the ground, not knowing what to think again.

"Okay, and one copy from the book Qin, one copy from Zhengyuan, and one copy will be kept in the village. It's getting late today, let's stay one more night" Li Zheng gave Zhengyuan and Lishu to Zhengyuan and Shumin respectively, and kicked one in his arms. When the work was done, he didn't stay long. The other elders also took their leave. Uncle also said that it was late and he was leaving, so Father Zhang and Zhang Li hurriedly got up to see each other. When my uncle passed by Shumin, he paused

"Don't have a grudge against the Zhang family, just feel at ease when you leave. After the uncle finished speaking, he left, he was almost ninety years old, his hand on crutches trembled, Zhengming didn't need Daddy Zhang's instructions, he immediately stepped forward to help him and send him back.

Uncle's words made Shumin's body stiffen, could it be that his uncle knew something? When he was in the countryside, he heard the old man say that dying people can see some unclean things, is it uncle?

Indeed, as Shumin thought, on the third day after Qiuhua entered the door, my uncle was lying in his yard basking in the sun, so he fell asleep and never woke up.

Gaofengling is the highest mountain in Baili Village, and there are only a few households at the foot of the mountain. My uncle lived here when he was young, and now it's almost deserted.

The courtyard that my uncle said was not big, the courtyard was some years old, and the mud courtyard wall had collapsed in several places, and the courtyard gate had cracked several holes, and there was a rusty copper lock hanging on it. The village chief took out a yellowed key and drove it for a long time, but because of the rusty copper lock, he couldn't open it, and finally borrowed an axe to break it.

The yard was overgrown with weeds half a person tall, and because it was autumn, the weeds were a little yellow, and they looked very depressed. At the end of the yard is the main house, and there is a semi-open-air utility room next to the main house, which is piled up with some miscellaneous items, and some firewood that is about to rot, and surprisingly, there is also a stone mill, although it looks dirty, but it should still work. On the right hand side of the yard is a kitchen, the kitchen is now empty, in addition to the stove, there is also a wooden stove, which can be washed out and can also be used to put oil, salt, sauce and vinegar and pots and pans, and there are several water tanks in the corner, some can be used, some should not be used. In the courtyard near the gate, there are two peach trees planted on the left and right.

There is a table of eight immortals in front of the main room, but it is lame, and it can be used if it is repaired, and the stool or something also needs to be repaired. There are two doors at the back of the hall, and there should be two rooms. There is still a plank bed in the room on the left, and a few broken boxes in the room on the right. There is a secret door at the back of the hall, and after the secret door is the backyard.

The backyard is huge, leaning against the foot of the mountain. The backyard can be used to raise some chickens and ducks and grow some vegetables in the future, Shumin thought in his heart while watching.

"This is where my uncle lived when he was young, when my uncle had just split up and lived here. Well, it's okay. Li Zheng leaned on his hand and said with a smile.

"It's wonderful, even better than I thought. As long as you clean up a little, you can live in. Shumin said happily.

"This is the title deed here and the title deed of an acre of land next to it, you take it. "Li Zheng handed over the title deed and title deed

"What's so embarrassing about this?" Shu Min thought that his uncle had lent him to live, but he didn't expect that he would even transfer the deed to her.

"Take it, you have nothing to go, this is what the Zhang family compensated you for. In addition to the title deed and house deed, you can also get a hundred catties of grain. But the food was given by your father-in-law. ”

Shumin thanked Li Zheng and took the deed. "Okay, I should go too, and I'll call your aunt to come and clean up with you later. After Li Zheng finished speaking, he left. Shumin sent him to the door and looked back at the courtyard: this will be my home from now on, Shumin thought happily.

There is a stream less than two meters wide outside the yard, the stream flows out of the peak ridge and sloping obliquely, passing through the back door of the yard with a bang, the trees on the peak ridge mountain are lush and green, the water flow is also abundant, and it is very convenient to get water.

It's such a good place, it's clean enough by the mountains and water.

Another day, when the house is cleaned up, he will take Hui'er over to live with him. Hui'er will definitely be very happy.

Originally, Shumin's plan was to ask Hui'er directly from the Zhang family, but Qiuhua said that it was impossible for a woman to leave with her child. In order not to make extraneous branches, Hui'er's affairs can only be suppressed.

Hui'er is good, my mother will definitely find a way to take you over. In the past few days, Shumin has already become Hui'er's mother.

Not long after, the eldest aunt led two women over. One of them is surnamed Zhang, who is from this village, and the other is surnamed Li, who is a neighbor of the eldest uncle. They went to the aunt's house today to get the soles of their shoes, and they heard that they were asking the aunt to help, and they also came over.

There are many people with great strength, and after half a day's effort, I finally cleaned the main house and the kitchen, and I threw what I should throw and keep, and I asked someone to repair it later.

In the end, only the weeds in the yard remained, the weeds in the yard grew densely, and the roots and branches were very deep, Shumin tried to pull it out, and the strength to eat milk was used, and he didn't pull out much. The aunt said that the grass had grown for too many years, and it had to be dug with a hoe.

At this time, Zhengming came over with a load of food. The grain was far more than a hundred catties, and the flat burden was bent.

"Sister-in-law, this is food sent from home. "Masaaki carefully put down the grain. I wiped my sweat vigorously with my sleeve.

"Don't call me sister-in-law anymore, call me by my name in the future, or call me Hui'er Niang. Shumin said

"Hehe, I'm not used to it all of a sudden, and I won't be in the future. "This man looks a lot like his brother, but he is better than his brother.

"Ouch, how come most of these grains are soybeans, they can't be eaten as rice!" Seeing Zhengyuan sending food, the uncles curiously lifted the cloth covering the burden.

Masaaki's face flushed. This morning, Li Zheng brought his uncle's words and asked them to prepare a hundred catties of food for Shumin to send over. At that time, Zhang Li's face darkened.

Although the Zhang family has a lot of land and there is a surplus of grain every year, how can the croppers dislike the abundance of grain? Besides, the rest of the grain is used to sell for money, and a hundred catties of grain, even brown rice, can be sold for 150 yuan!

Fortunately, the uncle didn't say what he had to give, and under the advice of his daughter-in-law Qiao, they mixed in the soybeans that were useless on weekdays. It is true that there are less than 50 catties of rice and flour that can be eaten.

"There is not much food in the house" Zhengming blushed: "When the newly harvested grain grinds out, it will be delivered." ”

"It's okay, it's enough to eat. Shu Min didn't mind, she had already reconciled, and now that she had this house again, she was already satisfied.

"How can it be, seeing that winter is coming, where can these grains be eaten until the next year, besides, the next year will have spring, and it will be many months before there is a new grain harvest. The woman surnamed Li was straightforward and fast-talking: "I think it must be your original mother-in-law who did it." “

"Oh, I don't mind Sister Qin, you don't have to say a word," the woman surnamed Zhang pulled her sleeve and whispered.

Zhengming was blushed even more by the two women's words, and he also felt that his mother and daughter-in-law had done too much, but the family and everything was prosperous, as long as they didn't quarrel, he didn't care what happened, but he didn't expect that there were three outsiders here.

"That's fine, I'll go first. Zhengming covered the cloth back, didn't want a burden, took the flat burden and walked back.

There is nothing left to do, and the weeds in the yard have to be dug with hoes, which are also strong goods, and a few women can't do it. Uncle Niang, they helped Shumin clean up and left. Now there is nothing at home to greet people well, and Shumin did not keep them, but just sent people out of the door.

After a busy morning, Shumin closed the courtyard door and returned to Zhang's house. Now I can't start the fire, I have to go back to Zhang's house for dinner, and the Zhang family has some of their own dowries, and they have to pack them up and take them back.
