Xu Si returned to the house, and was stunned for a while, with all kinds of thoughts in his mind, and it was easy to calm down, looking at the stack of silver dollars that Wang Shanren put on the kang and couldn't help but take it and count it, no more, no less than five yuan, heavy in his hand, Xu Si is definitely not the kind of person who covets others to be cheap, but for Wang Shanren, he will say something else, in Xu Si's consciousness, everything Wang Shanren has now should belong to him, but Wang Shanren is now in charge for him.

Xu Si put the silver dollar under the kang mat, of course he would put it in the kang cave later, but not now, he may have to use it later, he climbed on the kang and lay down, closed his eyes, but couldn't sleep, sweat stains all over his body, if he could let the water flush, but now even drinking water is a problem, how can there be a spare bath? His stomach screamed angrily, Xu Si simply sat up, looked around the room with his eyes open, and saw the chicken bones on the ground, his eyes couldn't help but light up, and he jumped off the kang and fell to the ground.

Xu picked up the chicken bones, and the joints were crawling with ants, as if aware of the approaching danger, and the ants were running away in all directions, and these little things really couldn't die of heat and drought! Xu Si puffed up his mouth while thinking about blowing them clean, and then put the bones in his mouth and smacked them for a while, there was really no taste, Xu Si didn't give up and broke those bones in half, only to see that the small bone tube was empty, where was there a shadow of the bones? I had to throw them on the ground again.

Xu Si stretched his waist, just wanted to climb on the kang, but there was a stammering voice calling him outside, and he was about to look for him later, but he came by himself, Xu Si took out three silver dollars from under the kang mat and held them in his hand, and walked out in promise.

He was sweating profusely, wearing a brand new undershirt, the wound on his right hand had been re-bandaged, the snow-white gauze was shining blindingly in the midday sun, but in his left hand he was carrying a wooden bucket filled with water.

"Fourth!" Stammering carried the wooden bucket into the house, and the bucket was neatly written with cinnabar with Wang Ji two vermilion characters, and stammered down the bucket and said to Xu Si: "Four, four brothers, Wang Oh Wang Da Oh Da - the good people let Oh let the village - the people in the village - go to fetch water - eat!" Say-oh say it's you-give-oh-begging--love. Oh this first oh a bucket of water, I'll give it to you--bring it, oh bring it, taste one-taste! As he spoke, he took the scoop and scooped it to Xu Si, "Drink!" Said the most crisp sentence.

Xu Si took the scoop, raised his neck and drank it all, the cool and sweet well water flowed down his throat into his stomach, and his five internal organs suddenly became refreshed, but the sweat on his body came out more.

Wang Shanren opened the door and released the water? It is already very bad to be able to ensure the water supply of the powder room in this drought, is it possible that he wants to be a good person?

Xu Si looked at the stammer, and there was a hint of flattery in the stammering eyes, "Your hand still hurts, right?" Xu Si asked, stammering first nodded, and shook his head violently, full of fear but speechless, Xu Si reached out and pulled the stammer's left hand, put the three silver dollars in his hand in his hand, the stammering hand shrank back as if it was burned, Xu Si grabbed him violently, closed his calloused hand with his hand, looked at his eyes that were full of tears and said, "Go back and live a good life with your daughter-in-law." ”

The stammering held the silver dollar in his hand, stared at Xu Si, opened his mouth wide, screamed but couldn't say a word, the tears in his eyes were mixed with sweat dripping down his chin, his thick Adam's apple rolled up and down on his neck, his face was red but he couldn't say a word, and he was about to kneel down as soon as his legs were bent,

Xu Si hurriedly supported him and kept persuading him: "Let's go, go back, my daughter-in-law is waiting at home." Then he turned around and walked back with tears in his eyes, walked a few steps, but suddenly turned around and bowed ninety degrees to Xu Si, and then turned around and trotted away.

Xu Si looked at the back of the stammering in the distance and smiled bitterly, he stammered that whoever has a job on weekdays will help whoever works, not for anything else, just to be able to have something to eat, only when the wheat is harvested, he can only make a few small money by going to the countryside to help people collect wheat, in the village, even seven or eight-year-old children dare to point their noses and scold him, it is really a nest to the extreme, but now he has married a wife who is like a flower! Thinking that the woman in front of Xu Tuzi's door rushed out first and shouted to run, Juanzi should still be worried about stammering, but what is she trying to do?

Xu Si couldn't understand, he picked up the scoop and scooped another scoop of water and drank it, it was really happy, but it was not hungry, there was a sudden pain in his stomach, Xu Si hurriedly walked out of the house to the south outside the thatched house and dragged a handful of hay into it, there was nothing in the stomach, but this was a lot.

Xu Sigang put on his pants and heard a woman outside calling uncle, he walked out, but saw Niuzi coming out of his grass hut and looking around, and when he saw him, his eyes smiled into crescent moons, "Uncle, I'm looking for you." The girl said generously, "What are you looking for me for?" "What is Xu Si thinking she is doing?" I'll take a look at what you do for a while and help you do some. Niuzi said as she followed Xu Si into the house, not squirming at all.

"Uncle, look at your heat, come, I'll scoop water for you to wash." As he spoke, he scooped up a scoop of water and stood in front of Xu Si, Xu Si had to let her wash her face upside down, Niuzi put the scoop into the bucket, took out a white handkerchief from his waist and handed it to Xu Si, Xu Si didn't answer, he slapped his face with his hand and shook it a few times in the air,

"Oops!" Niuzi said angrily: "Uncle, you are so bad, you have thrown it in the face of others, you see." As he spoke, he put that pretty face in front of Xu Si, and Xu Hui took a step back and ignored her.

"Uncle, you haven't eaten yet, have you?" As she spoke, she took out a small cloth bag from nowhere, opened it to reveal a yellow corn tortilla, handed it to Xu Si and said, "You taste my craftsmanship." ”

Xu Si hurriedly took it and stuffed it into his mouth and took a bite, his mouth was full of fragrance, he hadn't felt this way for a long time, it was better than the sorghum noodles and wild vegetables!

"It's delicious!" Niuzi asked proudly, "It's delicious!" Xu Si said vaguely, "I can cook anything!" Niuzi said proudly.

Looking at the fragrance of Xu Si's food, Niuzi lowered her body and picked up all the chicken bones thrown on the ground and threw them out, returned to the house and moved out all the messy things in front of the stove, walked into the house again and asked Xu Si: "Uncle, where is the broom?" "Where's the broom? Can that thing have anything to do with Xu Si? Xu Si didn't answer, just ate the fragrant tortillas one bite at a time.

The girl suddenly screamed, Xu Si was startled, thinking that she had seen the snake, but saw her walk to the bucket and wash her hands with a scoop of water, take out an oily paper bag from her waist, and after opening it, there were a few oily red pickles inside, and when she reached the red pickles, Xu Si suddenly felt that the cake just now was eaten too fast!

Niuzi pinched a pickle with her fingers like spring onions and handed it to Xu Si's mouth, Xu Si reached out to pick it up, but Niuzi retracted her hand and said softly: "Don't move!" I'll feed you. ”

Xu Si put the tortilla on the edge of the kang, stared at Niuzi and asked, "How old are you?" "I'll be eighteen next month." Niuzi's face was a little red.

"Then didn't your father tell you that you can't go to other people's houses casually? Especially a singles' home? Niuzi's face immediately turned pale, the pickles in her hands fell to the ground, she stretched out her hands to cover her face, her shoulders shook violently, and tears flowed out of her fingers.

"You look down on me!" The chick ran out crying.

Xu Si picked up the pickles that fell on the ground, put them to his mouth and blew them, and stuffed a mouthful of cake into his mouth, not to mention, it's really not bad, if you have this meal all day long, you won't do it for a county official! Look down on her? I don't even have a broom when I'm poor, so why do I look at her?

After a while, even the cake crumbs that fell on the kang were eaten clean by Xu Si, and the stomach was almost eighty percent full, Xu Si put the two silver dollars under the kang mat into the kang hole, and then washed his face, climbed onto the kang and gently touched his stomach with his hand, and found for the first time: It turns out that sleeping also needs to eat a full meal.

After a few moments, he fell asleep.
