Ye Xingrong carried the ladder and followed Ye Yao's hand with mud, the two in-laws were used to cooperating, and they knew what to do without speaking.

Along the way, people have people who carry ladders to fix water leaks on the roofs, and the cement roofs of the tiled houses are not the same as those of those buildings, not as solid, but they are cool in summer.

Now there is no money to buy cement, only lime and yellow mud are used, and the light rain will be fine, and the mud of the heavy rain tiles will be washed away.

Every time after the typhoon and heavy rain, the men in the family are busy, there is no man or dare not go to the roof, so they ask others to help, whether it is to ask someone to give money, or let people do day work, it will be seen by people, this thing looks at the problem of character.

"Second uncle, second uncle, are you also repairing water leaks?" The nephew with the same surname also repaired a water leak on the tile surface of his house, and his house was next to Ye Ziniu's house, because Ye Xingrong's generation was older than others, Xiao Ye Zi also became someone else's aunt.

If you want to say that you live next to someone else's house, it is like this in the countryside, you will raise cows, pigs and beasts when there is an empty house, Ye Zi has also seen people raising dogs, cats and sows in their kitchens.

"Yes, repair the water leak, you are also repairing?" Ye Xingrong nodded, he usually talks to the same people, only politely greets the same people, he is all immersed in work, and if he wants to chat with others again, he can't make a sound.

Ye Yao only nodded, and it was inconvenient for women to chat with men, and there was nothing to talk about, so they hurriedly walked in front of other people's houses with mud buckets.

"Well, every time it rains, I repair it, maybe the uncle's house is better, there is no water leakage, I haven't seen them repair the water leak today."

The nephew with the same surname looked at the house of Ye Xingrong's eldest brother, and said jealously, his family is so good, such a big house is good, there is no need for the family to have enough places to live, and every time it rains, it has to be leaked, and the same person is not fatal, it is good to have a free labor like his second uncle.

In the eyes of the nephew next door looking at the fool, Ye Xingrong put the ladder next to the cowhouse, climbed up the ladder to take the mud in Ye Yao's hands, and slowly climbed up to the roof tile.

It's not easy to repair the house tiles, it's even more difficult to do the old ones, it's better to have a normal sunny day, and it's going to look at your psychological quality on a rainy day.

There was a fool in the village who fell from a tree and died, and before he got married and had children, he dug a pit in a white coffin and went into the ground.

From repairing the water leak in the morning to the present, it's time to cook lunch, and it's finally for the repair, and it's hard to fix it, and you have to stick to it, and then go back to cook after repairing it.

Ye Xingrong is here alone, how can he rest assured that no one will help the ladder, and he will have to wait until he repairs it and come down from the ladder, and he will be hungry for a while, and he is almost too lazy to carry the ladder back and forth, and it is not convenient to go up and down the ladder.

Ye Yao's anxiously and silently waited for her husband to fix up, nothing is more important than safety, the family is healthy and happy together, even if you are poor, you have a head.

"Second uncle, hasn't the second uncle repaired the water leak yet, it's noon, and you haven't gone back to cook and eat, aren't you hungry?"

In the morning, I greeted the wife of the nephew with the same surname, holding a bowl of rice in her hand, a few green vegetables and a few salted fish in the chopsticks, sitting in her own door stone, and greeting while eating.

In some large families in rural areas, there are too many people to sit down, so children or women put on a bowl of decorated food and sit on the stone at the door to eat, while some only men sit on the table, and women and children never go to the table.

One reason is that there are too many people to sit down, and the other reason is machismo, and there is a head of the family and a son in the family.

In that era, there was no family planning, as long as you could give birth and be able to feed, there would be more children and grandchildren. When it is your turn, you women and children will point fingers.
