The girl nodded, and the fifth aunt said, are you worried that I will be sad, so you deliberately took a bag of candy to make me happy?
The girl was stunned, and then said with a smile, I'm really ashamed, Aunt Five, I'm really not as careful as you say, this candy is really given to Xiaobao and her cousin by my sister-in-law, I never like to eat sugar, and there is no such sugar in the house.
The mother came back to her senses and said to the fifth aunt, the girl didn't lie, he didn't like to eat sugar, this bag of sugar may really be brought by his sister to the two children, maybe he saw that you were wronged, and he deliberately wanted to comfort you, the mother said happily, the fifth aunt also felt flattered, holding the candy and asking the girl to say that your grandmother knows?
The girl smiled and said that he must know, but he still can't resist the sister-in-law, hearing that the mother and the fifth aunt here are both laughing, the mother said with great emotion, it seems that this sister has really grown up, and now she is sensible.
The fifth aunt also nodded and said, this is completely different from the sister I saw when I just married into the family, the mother said, she is now pregnant, and she will be a mother soon, of course she will be sensible, this is a good thing, soon the children are tired of playing, back to the house, the fifth aunt opened the bag of sugar and took a piece of it to each person, watching the child eat very happily, the fifth aunt is also very pleased, the grievances just said disappeared suddenly, seeing such a picture, the girl also felt very happy, all said that it is home and everything is prosperous, as long as most of the family can be tolerant, just an old woman, He definitely can't think of any big wind and waves, the days pass quickly, the project of digging the canal has now entered the finishing period, the flooded field is finally leaking out again, and the crops in the field are already rotten, including cotton and vegetables in the field, are all unusable, and even some houses have some loosening, the smell of the smell left in the house, and it is very damp, the furniture is generally made of wood, there is no moisture-proof function at all, it has been soaked in this water for so long, and now it is all rottenIn the end, the whole village seems to have become a ruin, let him rebuild his home, it is definitely a huge project, and now the whole project of the aqueduct is almost finished, my boy and Childe discussed it, and planned to leave a small number of people to continue to work here, and the rest of the people organized them, this team helped these nearby villagers in the village to build a house, and at dinner, the boy told everyone about the result that Childe and himself discussed, and my father nodded and said, it should be doneNow many of the houses of the villagers in the village have been tilted, and if it rains again, they may collapse, and such houses are now uninhabitable.
The young man nodded and looked at the village chief, uncle, tomorrow we will go to the village to take a look, mark all these rooms that cannot be inhabited, if you want to modify the house, we are now limited in manpower, and the time is also very limited, we must first stick to those houses that are no longer able to live in people, and for other houses that are in slightly better condition, we will slowly do it, what do you say?
For his decision, the village chief must be very agreeable, so in this case, tomorrow we will start to count, the young man saw that the girl was still there and did not speak, so he asked him and said, why don't you speak?
Don't have any comments?
Just now the son also made a special explanation before returning to the county, let us rebuild the house to listen to your opinions, the girl smiled and said, you have discussed it well, I don't need to add anything, and I have done a lot of disinfectant in the past few days, tomorrow you take it to the village, and then sprinkle it on the ground, so that you can also eliminate the poison, hearing here the young man nodded and said, this is okay, after the flood the next day, the reconstruction work officially began, in order to be able to return home one day earlier, everyone is very energetic, the men went to the mountain to cut down treesThe young man took those people out and took the girl to the village bucket by bucket, the water seemed to be sprinkled on the ground as if it didn't need money, and the whole village was filled with a smell of herbs for several days, at the beginning, there were many people who were not used to this taste, and they were very complaining in private, and even closed the doors and windows of their own homes, and were not allowed to go in to get these disinfectants, but the girl and the village chief they had already said dead words, if they didn't agree to play the disinfectant, when the time came the grain distributed by the imperial courtAt the same time, the team formed by the father and the boy is also working day and night, building a house for these people in the village, and sleeping for a few hours a day, it is already very good, I think he is really more tired than digging a ditch to build a house, the boy is now losing weight day by day, when picking vegetables in the vegetable garden, the girl and the cousin chatted about the day, the cousin also held a vegetable basket in her hand, the girl picked the vegetables and put them in the basket, listening to the girl say this, the cousin said, yes, I see that your second brother's face is now small, and the whole person looks very haggard, the girl looked back at her here, and said with a smile, have you ever felt sorry for your second brother?
Hearing this, my cousin's face turned red all of a sudden, and she said, don't you feel sorry for the young man?
Who just said that the teenager is getting thinner and thinner day by day?
The girl's eyes widened and she said, "Ouch, it's really amazing, I just said one sentence to you, you actually said so many words about me, you learned very well."
My cousin laughed, and the girl picked some vegetables and put them in the basket, and when she came to her cousin's side, she whispered to him and said, I am now formally asking you, how are you and your second brother getting along recently?
What are you going to do next?
My cousin's face turned even redder, how could she have time to get along?
Don't you know this time?
At first, I was thinking about disaster relief, then I went digging a canal, and now I'm building a house in half of the villagers, and I haven't seen him for many days, how is this possible?
The girl said, they brought something to eat at noon, but every night when they came back, they had to eat at home, how could you see him, my cousin shook her head and sighed, but she was able to look at him from afar, but she didn't have a chance to speak for many days, how could it be like this?
Of course, it's because your eldest uncle is what he can't do, but it's nothing, but as long as there is your second brother, there will definitely be him, when I want to go to deliver food to the canal, or your second brother comes home to eat at night, as long as I am in front of me, he must have been following your second brother, he saw me coming from afar, then he just went to deliver food to everyone, he thought I was going to find your second brother on purpose, so he kept staring at me, hearing my cousin's words, the girl couldn't cry or laugh, your uncle didn't always see my mother and disliked me for being short, and disgusted or something?
Why do you want to guard me like this?
I really can't figure it out.
The girl couldn't help laughing, and said that it was a big mother, the more my eldest uncle was so wary of you everywhere, which proved that the second brother liked you very much, but because the second brother has always cared about you, so the eldest uncle will be so nervous, no matter how he is, as long as you and my second brother's minds have not changed, then there is no problem, hearing this, my cousin nodded, maybe it was mentioned the second cousin, there was a happy feeling on his face, the girl looked at the vegetables that were picked now It was enough, so the two girls walked out of the vegetable garden together, intending to clean the vegetables, How many of these houses in our village still need to be rebuilt, my cousin asked the girl and said, the girl thought about it here, and said that there are not many of these dilapidated houses left in our village, so it's good, then it seems that they can finally take a break, but the girl said with a smile, in fact, to be honest, I think so, but I don't think so, why?
Could it be that after they have done these things, there are other things waiting for them to do, the girl said, there is no other arrangement now, but there are many people in our village, so these houses can be built quickly, but in the villages we are close to, they have very few people, but the disaster situation is much more serious than ours here, if they don't get it right, they have finished building these dangerous houses in our village, I'm afraid they will automatically go to the neighboring village to help, hearing this, my cousin said helplessly, since this can't be helped, the girl smiled and said, don't do it anymore, it's better to think of a way tonight, How about letting you and the second brother have a good few words, hearing the cousin's eyes light up here, and then shook his head and said, I think it's better to forget it, your second brother has been very busy recently, and he must have time to take a good rest, and I don't like this way of not being able to meet openly, I am waiting for a day when I can meet in a dignified manner, the girl was stunned, and then gave a thumbs up to my cousin and said, my cousin is really good, at dinner, the girl and my cousin came over with the food and put it on the table, and the man was discussing going to the village next door to help build a house, the young man saidThe villagers in the two villages, some time ago, whether it was resisting floods or digging canals, he and they have always stood firmly on the same front with us, and everyone can advance and retreat together, since they are now building houses in the village, then we should also move over to help them, and this matter, not in the quota of the imperial court prison, helping them build houses is all on everyone's will, if anyone wants to go, we don't force them, so I have privately gathered a team, planning to prepare food early tomorrow morning to go to the neighboring village to help, after listening to the young man's wordsThe elders on the table expressed their very approval, and the father said, "You also count me in that team, and I will go with you, and I heard that when we bought the land, the middleman in their house was very seriously flooded by this flood, and I have a very good relationship with him, and I must help him, the fourth uncle said, third brother, although these houses in our village have been completed, but there are still many things waiting for you and the village chief to decide together, go to the neighboring village to build a house, let me go for you, you stay in the village, the second brother also immediately said that I also called a few people hereWhen the time comes, these people will be divided into two teams, and they will go to the two villages to help, the young man nodded and said, this is okay, it is very important to build a house and decorate, but it is also important to eat, how about discussing this matter after everyone eats it?
