"Of course, I've been empty for the past few days."

Originally, she should have gone to Cai Jinling to work in the past two days, but for the sake of Brother Xiao Jiang, she could temporarily make the two of them comfortable for a few days.

After saying this, Mei Qingjiu and Jiang Heng rode to the kiln factory early the next morning, first to order bricks, and then to buy cement, tiles, doors and windows, etc.

It took a few days to buy what should be bought, and when it was time to decide, Mei Qingjiu also went to the thrift market to buy a bed and a kerosene lamp and put it in the study.

But I don't know why, when she went to the thrift market, the uncle always looked at her like he was looking at a bandit, what a cautious uncle!

Later, I went to sell some chickens and ducks and other things, and the money from the sale was used to buy a thick blanket and a new bed sheet, and the tickets for buying things were all sent by the grandfather before and were useless. The study was set up so that the grandfather would have a place to sleep when he came back.

——

On July 8th, the construction of Jiang Heng's new house started, pulling wires and digging foundations, which was very lively.

Mei Qingjiu also contributed two large watermelons to Brother Xiao Jiang, and after cutting them into slices, he called Jiang Heng over, "Brother Xiao Jiang, it's almost noon, let's bring these over to Uncle Guodong to quench their thirst." ”

Jiang Heng thought to himself that Mei Xiaojiu had a lot of watermelons, because of Meng Xiaoliu's help in the threshing floor, Mei Xiaojiu's family also sent half a watermelon over.

"What are you doing? Hold it. ”

"Oh good."

Jiang Heng picked up the dustpan and went out, while Mei Qingjiu followed him with half a bucket of water.

Outside, Mei Qingjiu shouted, "Uncle, big brother, wash your hands and face and eat watermelon." ”。

"It's so comfortable, and you can eat a big watermelon." Wang Guodong laughed and said.

In order to collect more food, their team never grows these sweet things, such as the production team with few people in the land will plant some watermelons, melons and the like.

"Uncle, wash your hands." Mei Qingjiu reminded him when he saw him reach out and take it directly.

"What kind of hands to wash, waste water, don't eat clean, don't get sick." Wang Guodong waved his hand, picked up a piece directly and gnawed it.

The others, like him, did not have the habit of washing their hands before eating, as long as they did not have a lot of mud on their hands.

Mei Yumin, who was passing by here, saw Mei Qingjiu in the crowd at a glance, she was really a cheap girl, everyone was wearing dust, she was wearing it so brightly, it was not a good thing at first glance.

Mei Qingjiu is wearing a goose yellow really good summer dress today, this fabric is not bought by herself, but scavenged from Mei Xiuhua before, she doesn't have any summer clothes, the fabric is white and put it away, so she took it out to make clothes.

But Mei Yumin was very unpleasant in her eyes, the fabric was a good fabric at a glance, she couldn't even want a new dress, but this dead girl could wear such good clothes.

An orphan with no father and no mother, why does she wear such good clothes? Is she worthy?

I thought of Cai Jinling saying that she had more than 1,000 yuan in her hand, and she was even more angry, a dog with no conscience, and she didn't know how to honor her aunt when she was rich, so she shouldn't have bought clothes for this stinky girl back then.

She stood there and watched for a while before leaving, she came back today to make her mother give up the job quota, who knew that the old woman was unwilling to live or die, so she ran away in vain.

With a stomach full of anger, Mei Yumin returned to her home in the county seat.

Zhen Yong asked, "How is it?" ”

"She doesn't agree."

"This old woman is simply sick!" Zhen courageously scolded.

Mei Yumin was also angry with her mother, but she was even more greedy for the money and new clothes in Mei Qingjiu's hand, and asked, "Have you found it?" ”
