070 Little relief
checked Zhang Yang and Zhang Chen's homework, which made Zhang Xiaoqiang feel very gratified!
The puzzle beans on the day of registration played a great role, and Zhang Xiaoqiang was thinking about redeeming one for herself to improve her learning efficiency.
After the homework of the two younger brothers was finished, Zhang Xiaoqiang read it carefully from beginning to end, and she said to Zhang Yang and Zhang Chen: "Very good, keep working hard!" Yangwa, I'll borrow you second-grade textbooks during the winter vacation, and when the next semester starts, you must catch up with the second-grade classes, and you can skip a grade. Both brothers nodded.
Helped my younger brother put the books and notebooks into his schoolbag, then went into the kitchen, took two steamed buns and wrapped them up and gave them to Zhang Yang and said, "Take this steamed bun, eat it tomorrow morning, let's go, I'll send you two home." The two children followed Zhang Xiaoqiang out of the house one after the other.
The sky was already dark, and the white snow brightened the white flowers on the path, creaking on the snow, and from time to time there was a dog barking from someone's housekeeper. The dim oil lamp lit up, and the three sisters and brothers walked to the door of Lao Zhang's house.
Zhang Yang pushed the door open, only to hear Zhang Yongchang ask: "Is it Yangwa, are you two back?" Zhang Yang responded: "Dad, it's the two of us!" ”
This Zhang Yongchang didn't even ask a word or say a word about caring about his two sons, poor Zhang Yang and Zhang Chen, with such a father, no wonder they had such a fate in their previous life.
Zhang Xiaoqiang watched her two younger brothers enter the yard, and she didn't go to her house until she turned into the backyard.
The sky was still drifting with snow particles, and some of the eaves were covered with long ice locks, like upside-down awls. At night, the wind blew on her face like a knife, and she secretly prayed in her heart that this winter would pass soon.
Go back to your home and close the door. The temperature on the kang was quite hot, so I took off my shoes and sat on the kang. After a while, the heat spread all over the body, the pillow leaned behind him, he chose a comfortable position, took out his textbook, and began to study
The colder the weather, the more sleepy people become.
Zhang Xiaoqiang is really reluctant to warm the quilt, she gets up early and is greedy for darkness when doing business, and now she wants to sleep more! The chicken also crowed several times, pretending not to hear it at all, until Shen Cuihua stood in the courtyard and scolded: "I said this white baby daughter-in-law, what's the matter with you, come back to be my grandmother, right?" Do you want me to wash your face, change your clothes, and feed you? ”
Hearing this abusive language, Zhang Xiaoqiang opened her heavy eyelids, slowly put on her clothes, and walked out of the room stretching her waist.
There was also a muttering sound in Li Xiangxiang's house: "I said Mom, can you make people calm early in the morning, what are you shouting all day?" ”
Shen Cuihua saw that Zhang Xiaoqiang had gotten up, so she said, "You didn't see what time it was now, so you got up!" Hurry up and clean up and cook, the water in the tank is gone, and go back with two more burdens! ”
This dead fat woman, is it not true that she is bent on abusing and killing individuals? This weather, go to carry water?
Zhang Xiaoqiang entered the kitchen, and when she saw that there was no hot water in the kettle, the water tank was almost bottoming out, and in her heart, she scolded the dog 10,000 times.
I found a few pieces of thick hemp rope in the kitchen and wrapped them around my shoes, so that I wouldn't slip when I walked for a while, and when no one would think about myself, I would still take care of myself.
Pick up the flat pole, hang up the bucket, and go out the door with a bang.
Early in the morning, there were also several families carrying water, saying hello to each other and saying a few words. Zhang Xiaoqiang shook her wheel, and at this time, the chain of the wheel was the same as the thousand-year-old cold iron, and she grinned in ice.
At the bottom of the well, there was a different scene, and a white gas slowly rose. These two buckets of water took a lot of effort to carry them home.
He poured into the jar, rested for a while, and then picked up the pole and went out the door. When the two buckets of water came back, I sweated a little hot, and I took it twice, so that the water in the tank was enough for two days.
Zhang Xiaoqiang knew that if she was at home, this cooking job would be her own business, let alone carrying water.
Then she picked up two more loads of water, and when she came back, she sat on the kitchen stool tired and couldn't get up for half a day.
She heard a knock on the door, and when she heard the footsteps, it must have been Shen Cuihua who had gone out. Zhang Xiaoqiang was at home, and Shen Cuihua was liberated from the kitchen, she would go out, and she must have gone to gossip. In this season, the rural people are idle at home, so the owner goes in and out of the west, and he takes a shoe in his hand and a sole.
Zhang Xiaoqiang was too lazy to care about this mother-in-law, she added water to the pot, lit a fire, and boiled a large pot of boiling water first, and there will be hot water for a day today.
Sitting in front of the stove, the flames roasted their bodies hot. The water was boiled after a while, and three kettles were filled, one each for the grandmother's house, one in Li Dabiao's house, and one in the kitchen. Grandma happily said to Zhang Xiaoqiang: "Daughter-in-law Baiwa, you see that if you are at home, I will be blessed." ”
Zhang Xiaoqiang said: "Grandma, I'll make you something delicious in a while, you wait!" ”
In the kitchen, Zhang Xiaoqiang saw that there were still some millet, cornmeal, cabbage, vermicelli, tofu, green onions, and radish, so she knew it in her heart.
The simple ingredients, in Zhang Xiaoqiang's hands, are another home-cooked delicacy.
The golden corn cake, the yellow and bright millet porridge, and a big pot of stewed vegetables make you have a lot of appetite. As soon as Zhang Xiaoqiang brought the rice and dishes to the kang table in the hall, Shen Cuihua entered the door. The soles of the shoes on my hands are still the same as the stitches sewn yesterday, and I guess I just did a mouth exercise.
Li Xiangxiang rubbed her eyes, and as soon as she entered the door, she took off her shoes and sat on the hot kang. Shen Cuihua said: "The dead woman should sit in and make room for me." I just came down on the kang at your Aunt Li's house, and I was frozen on the way, so hurry up and let me warm up again. ”
Li Xiangxiang reluctantly moved a little position, and Shen Cuihua's fat body barely sat down. Zhang Xiaoqiang glanced at her mother-in-law from the beginning, and thought to herself: "This woman's intuition is still weird, and she is estimated to be back when the meal is ready, and it is just right." ”
Li Dabiao looked at his mother-in-law and woman and said, "This cold day has to freeze the two of you, I worked all morning, why am I not cold." Li Dabiao said nothing wrong, he rebuilt the firewood shed in the backyard and stacked the dry firewood, which would make the blue cotton jacket open and his face was still red.
Zhang Xiaoqiang sat on the edge of the kang and sat against her grandmother, she handed her a hair cake to her grandmother, sandwiched some vegetables, and beckoned her grandmother to eat quickly, be careful that the rice is cold.
Li Dabiao's cheeks are bulging and his mouth is open and closed, it seems that this rice and dish taste good.
Shen Cuihua's mother and daughter completely cared about themselves when they ate, gobbling it up, and they looked so unhappy.
