Chapter 31: Rest at home

The people in this village are conservative, and a trivial matter can be passed on as a big thing, especially in the relationship between men and women.

Shen Qingqing thought about it carefully, this was right, she hadn't thought it through before, but where could she repair the house as a woman, she still had to ask a man to help.

Shen Qingqing returned home full of concerns, and when she just walked into the yard, she saw the smoke rising from Aunt Wang's house next door, and after thinking about it again, she still took a basket of eggs to Aunt Wang's house.

Aunt Wang was rolling noodles at home, and when she saw Shen Qingqing coming over, she hurriedly put down the rolling pin in her hand: "Oops, Qingqing is here." ”

"Aunt Wang, these eggs are for you." Shen Qingqing said as she put the eggs on the table, and she didn't know where to put her hands.

Aunt Wang wanted to let her take these eggs away, but when she saw her cramped movements, she smiled and said, "Is Qingqing experiencing any difficulties?" If it's okay, talk to your aunt too. ”

Shen Qingqing swallowed a mouthful of saliva: "If that's the case, my house can't be inhabited now, I want to ask someone to help repair it, but the people in the village are reluctant to come because I am a widow, if it is convenient for me, I ask Uncle Wang and Xiao Wang to help." ”

Uncle Wang and Xiao Wang are Aunt Wang's men and sons.

Aunt Wang took the rolling pin in her hand again, and said nothing, Shen Qingqing thought she was unwilling, and hurriedly said, "Actually, if it's inconvenient." ”

"Qingqing......" Aunt Wang directly interrupted her. You see, just this thing, it's all neighbors, how can I not help, and you bring back the eggs that are still in use? ”

This is really joy falling from the sky, Shen Qingqing couldn't close her mouth with a smile: "Aunt Wang is willing to help?" ”

"That's nature!" Aunt Wang shouted. "You prepare first this afternoon, and I'll let the two people in my family help tomorrow."

"Okay!"

Shen Qingqing is very grateful, this distant relative is really right that he is not as good as a close neighbor.

When she returned home, Shen Qingqing was not idle, this repair was not as simple as it sounded, running the line, measuring, and laying the foundation were not something that she could understand as a layman, and Shen Qingqing didn't care about it, so she ran directly to the town.

In this era, building a house is also a technical job, and people who know this technology have a high status, Shen Qingqing went directly to the carpenter market to ask for a guide, and spent a total of one penny.

Although this silver cost a lot, Shen Qingqing was extremely relieved in his heart.

Since he came and didn't run in vain, Shen Qingqing turned his head and went to the market again.

This market specializes in selling bricks and tiles, and the boss saw Shen Qingqing coming alone with a woman, and couldn't help but step forward and ask, "Sister, what do you want to buy?" ”

Shen Qingqing didn't know anything about this, she just thought that the fence and courtyard wall in the house were useless, and she wanted to replace other courtyard walls, she said her thoughts, and the boss was very enthusiastic: "Sister, it's not wrong for you to use green bricks for this courtyard wall, it's bright and strong." ”

Shen Qingqing imagined that picture for a while, but it was really like this, and immediately decided: "Okay, then use green bricks." ”

After solving this problem, when checking out, the boss said a few more words: "Sister, are you going to build a new house or repair a house?" ”

"Fix the house." Shen Qingqing smiled shyly.

The boss is also enthusiastic: "I see that you have no experience, if you want to repair the house, it is best to get a greenhouse first, so that it is convenient to get in and out, and eat and tea." ”

The boss has already become a half-expert in buying these things, Shen Qingqing thought about it, and spent some silver taels to buy a greenhouse.

This autumn is not longer than the summer, and it is not too early to get these things right, Shen Qingqing returned home and Xiaodouding just went to school, because tomorrow must be very busy, Shen Qingqing simply made some food and rested early.

Uncle Wang and Xiao Wang are both diligent people, and they came to work after breakfast, Shen Qingqing hurriedly brewed the tea that he bought in the town yesterday and brought it out, but he didn't expect to see an unexpected figure.

I saw Lin Zhong wearing a white cardigan, black pants underneath, holding a green brick in one hand and a brick knife in the other, which was very presentable.

Shen Qingqing was puzzled: "Why are you here?" ”

Lin Zhong was just busy working, and he didn't raise his head: "I heard that you are going to repair the house, and it just so happens that I have nothing to do in the past few days, so I came to help." ”

Since this person was here, Shen Qingqing was embarrassed to drive him away, poured a bowl of tea and handed it to him: "Drink some water." ”

"Done." Lin Zhong smiled, and the big white teeth were particularly conspicuous.

These three people are all diligent masters, and they have not been idle all morning, and Shen Qingqing is not stingy, so he simply took out the marinated venison and made it into sauce-flavored venison.

First, cut the venison into square pieces, then stir-fry the sauce marinated in your own house with large oil, and when it boils, put in the cut venison, and cook for a quarter of an hour.

Shen Qingqing shredded the potatoes again, made a spicy fried shredded potatoes, and a boiled green vegetable.

Venison slippery. Beautiful, the sauce is fragrant, and the vegetables are cool. Slippery, for a while the fragrance wafted out, and people didn't have the heart to work.

This Uncle Wang and Xiao Wang insisted on going home for dinner, and Shen Qingqing sent more than half of the venison over.

Lin Zhong put a piece of venison in his mouth, and nodded from time to time: "This venison will only be so delicious if you make it." ”

Shen Qingqing was happy in her heart: "Then you can eat more, this is all some hard work." ”

After lunch, all the people in the village came and went down, and the widow's repair of the house was a great deal in the village, and many people came to see it.

This Mrs. Liu is a typical place in the village where there is a bustle, where to turn, seeing Shen Qingqing as if the previous conflict did not happen, she spoke: "This Qingqing is really out of business, and there are actually silver taels to repair the house." ”

Although he said this in his mouth, his eyes were so red that sparks were about to burst.

Shen Qingqing also had a lot of scheming people, but just agreed: "The house in this house is really uninhabitable, so I will take a break from the house." ”

"yes." Mrs. Liu replied, but obviously her mind was not here, and when she saw the busy figure in the forest, her eyes turned and she didn't know what she was thinking, and left immediately.

Shen Qingqing didn't care about her so much, just busy with the work in his hands.

And Mrs. Liu, who was doing this good thing, turned around and walked to Lin Zhong's house, and saw that Aunt Lin was still breaking corn, and as soon as she opened her mouth, she was babbling: "Oh, the person with the most energy in this village turns out to be Aunt Lin." ”

Aunt Lin was unclear by this sentence: "Mrs. Liu, why did you say this?" ”

Mrs. Liu smiled and walked to Aunt Lin's side: "Do you know that the little widow is repairing the house?" ”

Of course, Aunt Lin knew about this, and when she heard this name, she felt bored in her heart: "She repairs the house, what does she care about me." ”

"It's okay, you're still asking Lin Zhong to help?"

"What?" Aunt Lin stood up, her face annoyed. "Did you go to help in the woods?"

Mrs. Liu spoke: "Yes, this work is quite diligent. ”

With that, Mrs. Liu left, and Aunt Lin threw the corn cob to the ground and shouted into the house: "What are you doing in the house one by one?" Hurry up and get me out! ”

At night, as soon as Lin Zhong returned home, he felt different.

Aunt Lin and Father Lin sat on the kang, Lin Mei sat on the stool, and although Lin Nan was holding a book in his hand, his eyes were also looking at him.

Lin Zhong looked down at his body: "What?" What's wrong with me? ”

"You still know to come back." Aunt Lin's arm shrunk into her sleeve and spoke. "Why don't you live in that widow's house?"

Lin Zhong knew that today's incident was known, and his mother would definitely shout, but he didn't expect the battle to be so big.

"I'm just ......"

"You still have the face to say!" It was Lin's father who spoke, he had been a farmer facing the loess all his life, and he didn't have an opinion on the affairs of the family, but he felt that Lin Zhong had lost face. "The widow is not ashamed, don't you have shame?"

Lin Zhong knew that the people in the family were prejudiced against Shen Qingqing, and he also knew that Shen Qingqing was not as rumored to be, but he didn't bother to explain.

Lin Nan put down the book in his hand, and there was quite a picture of hatred: "Big brother, how can you help that widow?" Don't you know that the widow has been pestering me? Are you not sincere in trying to harm me? ”

"That's right, big brother." Lin Mei, who has always been silent, also spoke at this time. "That widow is so ignorant, what if she sticks to the second brother?"

"What to do? If the widow dares to be so shameless, I will break her legs. "Lin Nan has always been the treasure of Aunt Lin's heart, so when she says this, she will be angry." What kind of sin have I done, giving birth to your son in this life really killed me. ”

The forest let them speak, and they did not speak.

When Aunt Lin saw her like this, she thought she was wrong, and said: "Later, I will find you a yellow flower girl, you don't want this widow to come and go." ”

This yellow flower girl can easily marry in, how can she live a peaceful life without silver two.

This Aunt Lin is just talking, and she refuses to take it out for Lin Zhong.

Lin Zhong also knew this, so naturally he didn't go to his heart.

The Lin family muttered a few more words to him, and then went back to the house to sleep, Lin Zhong didn't have the heart to sleep, so he simply took advantage of the moonlight to take a brick knife to build a house for Shen Qingqing.
