Chapter 173: Gluing the Window
One of the five watches!
The neighbors who help Zhang Cuilian's family dig potatoes and pull radishes will get a lot of autumn vegetables from her. Although the potatoes and sweet potatoes are small, they do not delay eating, and the cabbage leaves are a little frozen, and the pickled cabbage does not delay them. Fortunately, their radish has no bran, and the shredded pickles are crispy and refreshing.
Ding Mei couldn't help when she was pregnant, so Zhang Cuilian also sent some over. Fortunately, the big guy's temper is very refreshing, and he doesn't hold grudges after a fight, and he gets angry for a few days. If there is something that you can't think of, it will be terrible, and the leader above will not look good on the face of any man when asked. So even if you don't want to see it in your heart, you will always be able to say it on your face.
The autumn vegetables of the Zhang family are really not presentable, so Zhang Cuilian can only go out and buy some tun up. Fortunately, the service agency in the compound is very convenient, and the small warehouse at home is full of Zhang Cuilian. In another warehouse, Gu Zhicheng also bought three tons of coal for backup.
Gu Zhicheng is not such a person who is reluctant to burn coal, Suiyuan here began to snow after eleven, and it will not be until May of the next year that the coal will be cut off. Three tons of coal is definitely not enough, but unfortunately the small warehouse at the head of the family is not very big. I felt distressed when I saw Zhang Cuilian sprinkling water on the coal, in order to burn it slowly. As if she was particularly useless, Zhang Cuilian was no longer like this after a few obstructions.
The courtyard leaning against Fan Jinfeng was full of neat wooden stumbling blocks, which were used to light the stove. It's just that the stumbling blocks in their house are slower than those in other people's homes, because these two families barely let the stove go out. The house is warm all day, and even writing in the living room doesn't feel like hands.
Ding Mei reacted very much after she became pregnant, and she yelled and dizzy after eating and vomiting all day long. In the entire West Courtyard, only Fan Jinfeng, Yu Pozi and Zhang Cuilian were at home during the day. Zhou Peng always went to Zhang Cuilian to borrow books, and the relationship between the two families became closer.
She was less than three months pregnant, and she couldn't do some of the work that climbed high and stepped on the low. For example, now I have to ask Zhang Cuilian to help at home.
After the winter in the Northeast, you have to paste the window cracks, and use paper to paste the paste in the middle of the window cracks. After finishing the work, the entire window was nailed with straw and nails with transparent plastic sheeting. In this way, you can not only see the figure walking outside the window, but also play a role in wind and frost protection.
Zhang Cuilian pasted the front and back windows at home, and she didn't move the one in the kitchen. Because there is no smoke hood at this time, cooking fumes must be discharged through the window. Fortunately, the stove is in the kitchen, so I don't feel panicked when cooking.
Zhang Cuilian finished pasting the window, went to the kitchen to fetch water, washed her hands, and entered the bedroom to see Ding Mei making quilts for the children. Seeing her come in, he grabbed a melon seed and handed it to her: "Sister, eat some hair." ”
Zhang Cuilian rubbed her hands, frowned and said, "Is your house a little cold, don't be reluctant to burn coal!" Ding Mei lowered her head and gave her child a quilt, and said disapprerovitically: "It's burning, it's not cold in the house." As long as I don't go to the big house, I won't go to that house anyway. ”
Zhang Cuilian touched the heater suspiciously, but she didn't feel anything suddenly. Ding Mei looked at her enviously and said: "Our house is not as dragging as yours, the radiator is hot." How expensive this coal is, you have to burn bud rice pulps to eat. Unlike our house, we use reed poles and bud rice poles all year round. It doesn't cost a few bucks! (Note: The pole here is pronounced as this, and the accent is transliterated)
Zhang Cuilian didn't say anything, got up after eating melon seeds for a while, and said, "I'll go home first, there are still a lot of things to do at home." ”
Ding Mei pouted and smiled again and grabbed Zhang Cuilian: "Sister, do you think our family is cold?" What do you have to do in your family? It's still early to cook, so what's the hurry! ”
Zhang Cuilian said in her heart that I still have work to do, how can I have the kung fu to be stupid here. But he smiled and said, "I want to pickle some pickles, and I'm halfway done." ”
Ding Mei's eyes lit up, then I'll help you go. Zhang Cuilian shook her head: "Nothing else, you should stay at home." What a job! ”
In the end, she followed her back to her home, Zhang Cuilian sat on the sofa and cut radish strips while accompanying her in the TV series "Desire".
On the coffee table was a pot of washed radish, next to a small cutting board and a kitchen knife. Ding Mei wiped her tears while nibbling on the radish slices: "Oh, look at how good the performance is." I really cried over and over again! ”
Zhang Cuilian rolled her eyes, and snatched the radish from her mouth speechlessly: "How many slices have you eaten, you are a pregnant woman, don't always eat so many radish." He pointed to the TV and said, "How many times has this TV series been performed, and it was broadcast several times last year?" Don't be so emotionally fluctuating when you're pregnant with a child! ”
Ding Mei snorted, reluctantly put down the radish slices and muttered: "People say that radish is a little ginseng, don't I make up for the child." Seeing that Zhang Cuilian didn't seem to like watching this TV series very much, she lowered her head and asked, "Then what do you want to watch?" Channel 3 seems to be playing "Dream of Red Mansions"! ”
Zhang Cuilian's eyes lit up: "This is good, I never get tired of watching Dream of Red Mansions." ”
Ding Mei pouted: "What's so nice about that thing, Sister Lin cries all day long." What's the point, might as well look at this? ”
Zhang Cuilian waved her hand: "Okay, you can see anything." Just stop eating my turnips. After speaking, she took the pot of radish strips to the kitchen, and Ding Mei immediately smiled when she saw her out of the living room. muttered in a low voice: "I'm afraid I'll eat your turnips!" ”
Zhang Cuilian brought a pot of washed radishes from the kitchen, and there was a plate on top of it, which contained four frozen persimmons. She put the plate on the coffee table and said to her, "This frozen persimmon is melted, and you won't eat this." ”
Ding Mei picked up a frozen persimmon and took a bite, sipping the thick juice into her mouth. I couldn't help but exclaim: "It's so delicious!" ”
Zhang Cuilian said with a smile: "There are still frozen pears in the kitchen that have not been melted, and they are sour and your appetite." ”
Ding Mei smiled embarrassedly: "I love to eat sour food since I was pregnant, and the one in our family always buys me frozen pears to eat." I've just finished eating it in the past two days, and I haven't poured it out to buy it. But I'm so hungry, you said that your saliva is pouring out. ”
Zhang Cuilian smiled while cutting the radish strips: "Ah, that's it." The service club has always been there, and he can buy it after work. You eat one in a while, it's good. ”
The smile on Ding Mei's face was suffocated, and then she leaned back on the back of the sofa and sighed: "How can I have your life, your old Gu is not afraid of you spending money at all." We still have a small one waiting to come out to collect debts. Can't this money be spent frugally? ”
Zhang Cuilian didn't like to hear that children were debt collectors, so she changed the topic and asked, "Where are you going to give birth when you give birth?" Who will come to take care of the confinement? Mother's family or mother-in-law's family? ”
Ding Mei's face changed when she heard this, and she pouted and said, "I haven't heard that my mother's family is here to serve the confinement child, I have to give birth to a child for their old Zhou family, so my mother has to come and serve me." ”
Zhang Cuilian was silent when she heard this, she heard a lot in her life if she felt that her mother-in-law should do everything she did when she got married. Seeing that Zhang Cuilian was silent, Ding Mei's eyes turned around and asked Zhang Cuilian: "You have been here for a long time, why hasn't your belly moved?" You have to let your old Gu work hard at night, otherwise it will be so boring to stay there every day! ”
Zhang Cuilian stabbed back neither softly nor hard: "What's the hurry, aren't you also here for almost a year before you got pregnant." We've only been married for a long time, and we haven't had enough of it. ”
Ding Mei looked at the flush on her face, thinking about the scene when she saw Camp Commander Gu drying her daughter-in-law's clothes that day. There was a slight sour feeling in his heart, and he muttered to himself: "If you are pregnant with a child, Camp Commander Gu will not provide you up!" ”
Zhang Cuilian shook her head: "That's not necessary, but he can understand the hard work of my pregnancy." As he spoke, he raised his head and asked, "Where is your old Zhou?" I should feel sorry for you too, seeing that you have lost weight like this. ”
Ding Mei didn't think there was much change when she wanted to say it, so she didn't quarrel with her anyway. It's not necessarily intimate to say it's intimate, but I also know how to buy delicious food at home.
"He buys whatever I want to eat, and two days ago we stewed an old hen at home. He didn't eat a bite, only potatoes and mushrooms. Thinking of that scene, Ding Mei felt very heartwarming.
She sat for a while and felt a little tired, and when she stood up and turned around, she saw the cabinet in the dining table. There are several people in the picture frame on the cabinet, and the cabinet below is not honest.
She had been curious to open the cabinet and see a very imposing brocade box inside. Turning his head, he asked Zhang Cuilian: "What is in this box?" Good bar? ”
Zhang Cuilian: "Huh? He turned his head to see her crouching on the ground staring at the set of utensils. Thinking of this set of tableware that I have never been willing to use, my heart instantly became excited.
I walked over and put the box on the dining table, and said proudly as I opened it: "This is what my friend specially bought for me from Guangzhou when I got married." The tableware produced in Jingdezhen is so good-looking that I haven't been willing to use it! ”
Ding Mei doesn't know what Jingdezhen's tableware is, she only knows that the things she eats are not plates, bowls, chopsticks, and spoons. No matter how beautiful it is, where can you see it, and can you still grow flowers?
Who knew when Zhang Cuilian opened the lid of the brocade box, revealing the golden glittering plate inside. She suddenly didn't feel good in her heart, what she saw was not other people's beautiful bowls, but the footsteps that she couldn't catch up with in her life.
The lost Ding Mei clutched her chest all the way home, and when she entered the house, she found that it was a lot colder at home. She thought about the gorgeous flowers in the flower pot on Zhang Cuilian's windowsill, and then looked at her own windowsill with ice ballast.
She poured the dry coals into the furnace with a ruthless heart, and she felt more discomfort in her chest as she listened to the sound of crackling inside. A stream of sour water reversed upwards, and nothing could be found to press down.
She grabbed the vinegar bottle in a panic and opened the lid, raised her head and drank two sips, which suppressed the discomfort.
Looking at the old plate with a circle of black edges in his house, he looked at the bottle of vinegar in his hand.
Ding Mei's eyes were hot, her nose was sour, and she shook her hand and threw the vinegar bottle down。。。。。
