Chapter 29: Black Treasure
was scolded by my father, and the long bolt didn't reply, hehe's silly music, and I finished the cake in my hand in three or two clicks.
Mu Xiang deliberately glanced at Da Mei's expression and found that she was blushing, because it was dark outside, and she was sitting inside, so no one saw it. Mu Xiang thought to herself, it seems that Da Mei is really interesting to Wang Xi, but she doesn't know what Wang Xi means. If the two of them can get together, it would be good, at least Da Mei will not be wronged in the future.
After eating, Da Mei insisted on helping Mu Xiang wash the dishes, but was stopped by Mu Xiang, it was not early, it was dark outside, in the countryside, it was inconvenient to go out at night, and the lantern was not something that everyone could afford, so she only let her go back with her own bowl to wash.
When the long bolt was leaving, he told Mu Xiang that he would go to the market tomorrow morning.
Lin Fugui doesn't like to talk, but when Mu Xiang nodded, he asked Da Mei to follow tomorrow.
Mu Xiang understood what Lin Fugui meant, if she was only allowed to go with Chang Shu, so that people could see it, it would inevitably be gossip, but if Da Mei followed, it would be different. Thinking of this, Mu Xiang smiled gratefully at Lin Fugui.
Lin Fugui is also a sincere person, he feels sorry for Mu Xiang, such a good child, but Li Dashan's guy was blinded by, and he couldn't see it, so he had to raise Chen Mei'e's-stirring stick.
After sending away Damei and them, Caiyun was busy making a nest for the puppy, and there was no extra rags at home, so he had to use straw to make a small circle on the edge of the kang in the inner house, which was considered a nest.
Mu Lang hugged the puppy, squatted beside the second sister, watched her make a nest, and after a while, reminded her in a low voice, "Second sister, it doesn't have a name yet?" ā
Caiyun teased it, tilted his head and thought, "You see it's so dark, why don't you call it big black?" ā
Mu Lang's head shook like a rattle, "It's not good, many dogs in the village are called Da Hei, or it's Heizi, our dog is not called that." ā
Caiyun propped up his chin and didn't come up with it after thinking about it for a long time.
Mu Lang silently said: "Black Treasure! ā
Mu Xiang just pushed the door in, and said in surprise: "This name is good, our Mu Lang will come up with a name." ā
Mu Lang grinned at her, revealing two rows of snow-white teeth.
Since then, Heibao has become the fourth member of their family.
slept until midnight, and sure enough, Heibao kept screaming with a sharp voice, and the screaming was still very coherent and rhythmic. No matter how much Mu Xiang threatened and scolded him, it didn't work, Heibao still called it by himself.
In the end, Mu Lang got up, carried Heibao to his bed, and slept with him, which made it stop.
Early the next morning, before dawn, Mu Xiang got up, lightly touched out of the house, the outside was still bright, there was no sound in silence, only the eastern sky, there was a faint red light, and after a while, the sky would slowly clear, and the sun would slowly rise.
She got up so early, in order to go to the county seat, to fertilize the leek ridges in the vegetable garden, yesterday it was too late, there was no time to get it, now it is best to dig out the green ash, and then after a while to cook breakfast, the green gray can not be digged.
Mu Xiang took a shovel and a bamboo pole from behind the door, there were no snakeskin bags in ancient times, and all household farm tools were mostly made of bamboo, and this bamboo pole was no exception.
Pulling open the door, she stepped over the broken courtyard wall, and last evening, Lin Fugui took Wang Xi and them to completely clean up the damaged part of her courtyard wall, and cut it neatly and neatly, so that it was easy to stack adobe. At dinner last night, Mu Xiang also told them about opening the door here.
Lin Fugui is an elder after all, and he has seen a lot, so he will move the original old door over when he builds it, and it saves her from buying another door, and as for the empty door frame, he will seal it with adobe, which is the same. When it was time to paste the wall, the three of them painted the entire courtyard wall with mud again, repairing what should be repaired, repairing what should be neat, and making sure that it looked like it was newly built.
Mu Xiang didn't know how to thank them, she helped her so much, and saved her a lot of money, she thought about waiting for the house to be ready, and then invite them to have a good meal.
Under the morning sun, Mu Xiang was busy.
After digging out the green ash, he picked up the bamboo burden, transported the green ash to the leek ridge, and carefully covered the cut leek roots. Her family has a thatched house, which is built next to the toilet, which is also dilapidated and old. Mu Xiang doesn't like to go to the toilet on weekdays, because it is too dirty and the thatched house is too low.
In the spring, the thatched house is full of weeds, the deepest part of the grass, there are Qi people high, looking strange and scary, when she pours the bucket in the morning, she walks with her feet, for fear of suddenly bursting out of snakes and insects or something.
After getting the leeks together, Mu Xiang stood by the thatched house and watched for a long time, and finally gritted his teeth, went home and got a hoe, and hoeed the weeds by the thatched house. The soil here is very soft, unlike clay soil, which cannot be hoeed.
Before the sun came out in the morning, the temperature was not high, but Mu Xiang was tired and sweating.
Caiyun woke up when she went back to get the hoe, she would comb her braids, wash her face, and come over to help, "Sister, this thatched house must be reinforced, otherwise it will snow heavily in winter, and it may fall!" ā
Mu Xiang agreed, holding the hoe in one hand, standing aside and panting, "If you don't wait for me to come back in the afternoon, let's go cut some bamboo, before the winter, we are busy, not only the vegetables in the field have to be planted, but also the firewood and grass have to be prepared, otherwise there will be no firewood in winter, but it will be cold to death." ā
Caiyun said: "Well, when I have free time with Mu Lang, I go to collect firewood, pick up a little every day, and after a long time, I can pick up some firewood." ā
I can't take care of this matter of repairing the thatched house for a while, but the hygiene can be done a little better.
Caiyun made some bamboo sticks to make a simple broom, and thoroughly cleaned the inside of the hut, especially the cobwebs on the top, so that they would not accidentally get on their hair every time.
Mu Xiang used a hoe to push the weeds aside, put them on the side to dry, and when they were dry, they set fire to it.
Seeing that it was still early, she mentioned yƬ and Caiyun to dig some soil, now can not pad the vegetable garden, but spread the soil to the side of the courtyard wall, and wait to feed the chickens, chicken manure is mixed in the soil, and then pick the soil into the vegetable garden, fertilize at the same time, but also along the way to the vegetable garden pad, this matter is not urgent, it is much stronger than digging the soil to pad the vegetable garden, the soil is not fertilized, even if the vegetables are planted, there is no good harvest.
Caiyun was pleasantly surprised: "Sister, your idea is too good, then let's go dig the soil now, just go to the place where Brother Wang Xi and they dug yesterday!" ā
Mu Xiang nodded, "Cheng, let's get up every morning and do a little bit of it, and it will add up a lot." ā
They had been working for nearly half an hour, and they had dug a lot.
After finishing work, Mu Xiang went home to cook breakfast, and Caiyun took a big broom and swept the yard. The adobe made yesterday was left outside the courtyard to dry, and when the sun came out, the straw on top had to be removed and the adobe dried as soon as possible.
In the morning, it was corn paste that was burned, and after cooking breakfast, Mu Xiang was worried that Da Mei was in a hurry, so he took a bite of rice first, and saw that Mu Lang in the back room was still asleep, and did not wake him up, but only told Caiyun to be careful at home.
