Chapter 22: The Neighborhood
Ercheng in the courtyard saw the lady come out and smiled at him gently.
"Treacherous!" Zhao Jiao's heart is screaming wildly! looks like a very honest and gentle person, but I didn't expect it to be a big-tailed wolf! Why didn't you see it before?
Although the lady didn't speak, he felt that the eyes staring at him were like a brush, and they tickled people's hearts, I really wanted to...! It's a pity that this leg is too inconvenient!
After eating, she began to clean up the house.
And Cai Dacheng began to draw the new house after dinner, with a total of two yards.
They want to live in the east head, and the house is further to the left, about 300 meters away is the mountain, and on the right is the school.
To live in a two-way yard. There are three main rooms in the front, sitting north and facing south, and the living room is in the middle on both sides of the wings, and there are three wings on both sides of the main house. on the left is a kitchen, a storage and firewood room, and a tea room; The right side is temporarily empty and not labeled.
The back entrance is the same as the front building, with a living room in the middle and a left and right room. The three rooms on the left also have kitchens, which are mainly used to boil water, as well as bathrooms and storage rooms. There are three wings on the right, a pharmacy, a study, and a sewing room.
Discuss the house with two percent, and tomorrow I will go to see the materials to buy.
"The lady doesn't have to go, it's not built there! Today it's just the materials that are delivered. Construction starts tomorrow. Cai Dacheng looked at her and dispelled her thoughts, there are many rocks there, what should I do if I fall?
The next morning, the sun was still shining high, and the temperature was not low.
Zhao Jiao and Ercheng sat in front of the house to enjoy the shade, and she was making clothes in her hands.
"Is Bao Er Niang at home?" Sister-in-law Zhao suddenly shouted outside the courtyard.
Zhao Jiao: "Yes, sister-in-law come in!" ”
Sister-in-law Zhao walked in with a piece of meat a little embarrassed, "Bao'er Niang, thank you for waking up, otherwise my family will have no way to survive when I go to Master Wang's house!" You take this meat and give it to Bao'er to eat! After saying that, she put it on the table and left, without waiting for Zhao Jiao to reply, like a wolf chasing her!
Zhao Jiao: "It seems that they have also inquired clearly." ”
Cai Ercheng: "Everyone near this old man's house knows it, as long as you want to ask, can you still know?" It's that the introduction of people's hearts is too dark! may have been with Master Wang for a long time. ”
Zhao Jiao: "That's! Who says that people are good? It should be a black heart! ”
Look at this meat again, there is a lot of fat, it has to be two catties, it seems that it has cost a lot of money.
"Hold dumplings and eat, I'll cut some leeks and some long beans." As he spoke, he took out the basket and picked up the sickle, and prepared to go out into the garden.
"I'll go, you can't squat!"
"Can you do it with that leg? Sit down! Without waiting for Cai Ercheng to say more, he took a small wooden stool and walked out of the courtyard gate.
Ercheng looked at his legs, "When are you doing?" "Think it's dumplings, and then he'll chop the minced meat.
At this time, Boa ran in.
"Wow! Meat! There's meat to eat! Bao'er shouted happily.
Cai Ercheng: "You dirty monkey, where did you come from?" ”
Bao'er: "Fighting." ”
"Ouch! Terrific! With whom? You can't beat people down like this! Ercheng smiled.
Bao'er was unhappy, "Brother Monkey, he said that his mother is bad!" Mother is not bad! Well, I'm better at telling stories than his mother. ”
Cai Ercheng knew that he must have heard what the adults said, and now he couldn't avoid it.
It seems that in the future, you can't let the lady go out alone, the adults don't leave a mouth at most, and the children in the village, don't know how to distinguish between right and wrong, if they think it's a bad person, sometimes they may get together and attack the person they think is bad with mud, what if the lady touches it?
Who to call if something happens? When they don't have power, they can only endure it first.
Cai Ercheng hurriedly said: "Has Bao'er been beaten?" ”
The kid was much older than Bo'er, seven or eight years old.
"Brother Dongzi and Tie Niu helped Bao'er fight, and Bao'er gave candy to eat!"
"Hey! Yes! Next time you go out and bring sugar, you have to be so smart! Ercheng smiled and pinched his cheeks, this little man!
After a while, Zhao Jiao came in with a basket, she washed the meat first and let Ercheng chop the stuffing before picking up the vegetables.
Bao'er was laughing on the side, and the family was happily preparing to make dumplings.
After the dumplings were cooked, there was a large plate left, and Cai Dacheng sent it to Zhao's house, because of Zhao's sister-in-law, Zhao Jiao easily stopped coming to the door.
It was the first time for Zhao to eat such delicious white-flour dumplings, and although they bought meat for Zhao Jiao's family, they didn't keep one or two for their own family. Zhao Jiao also estimated that they were reluctant, so they sent more, there were eighty, twenty for each person. Sister-in-law Zhao originally looked down on her in her heart, and she was uncomfortable after giving so much meat, so she would have nothing to say when she ate white flour dumplings.
After eating, we took a lunch break. But the clothes haven't been washed yet, and the new clothes haven't been made yet. Zhao Jiao asked Ercheng to call her early, otherwise it would be delayed.
Cai Ercheng agreed, but after she fell asleep, she washed all the clothes with the water at home, and asked Cai Dacheng to dry, and pick up some water later, the tank is too small!
Bao'er suddenly felt unhappy when he took a nap, because he remembered when he saw the new clothes, and his mother's promise to him to wear new clothes today was not realized.
There were only mother and son on the bed, and he could only shake Zhao Jiao awake, and Zhao Jiao was confused to know what was going on.
"Wear it now! Think about it, how dirty are the clothes you wore in the morning? Even if you wear it, you can't wear it anymore, and it's the same now! As he spoke, he took up the new clothes that had been washed and put them on him.
Bao'er won't be really angry with her mother, she will be wearing new clothes, and she will laugh beautifully!
Zhao Jiao looked at the little handsome guy in front of her, she really loved it to death!
The big eyes are embarrassed, the eyelashes are long like a fan, looking at you and blinking, it is really cute to your heart.
Inheriting Cai Dacheng's Guozi face and high nose bridge, because he is not allowed to be exposed to the sun with the children in the village, his skin is different from those children, and it is still milky white, which is particularly eye-catching.
At this time, the stand-up collar clothes called his facial features more distinct, and the well-fitting clothes appeared slender and more energetic.
The little guy ran out beautifully and showed off.
"Uncle, look! Boa has cats! ”
After getting praise from his uncle, he ran out of the hospital to find a partner.
Zhao Jiao didn't know that because of this dress, it caused another scolding!
Because the children toss the parents and want cats, those women can only scold the culprit, and they dare not face the face but can only bark behind their backs!
If you have nothing to eat and be full, if you have time to embroider an animal on your clothes, you might as well go to the field to pull weeds, and besides, the burlap they prepared for the child is not suitable, and it is a waste of thread!
The days are fleeting in the hustle and bustle, and in a blink of an eye, it is the end of July.
Because of the large number of people invited, the house was also built, and the school was built at the same time, and the two houses were side by side with a tree, which was particularly magnificent.
The discussion center of the village no longer paid attention to Zhao Jiao, but talked about the school.
After all, this is a major event that affects future generations! kept turning around to ask the Cai clan about going to school.
Cai Ercheng's leg has been injured for nearly two months, his left hand has been healed, and his left leg is not affected when he walks, but his right leg still has to be tied, because his kneecap is broken, he has to take care of it, otherwise it will be uncomfortable when it rains on a cloudy day in the future.
However, he is only seventeen years old, and his bones are already in a period of rapid growth, and with careful management, the degree of recovery is also a rapid progress.
Usually, when Cai Dacheng is not at home, he can also walk on crutches, and there is no problem in taking care of himself.
And because of the comfortable life and proper diet, on the contrary, the flesh has grown, and the height seems to have grown a little, and the once difficult look can no longer be seen from the face, but it reveals a handsomeness, that is, the sunburned skin has not yet recovered.
Besides, Zhao Jiao, the original body is a Su Daji's natural foundation, she used to have withered hair and yellow body, thin and sick, and a bean sprout with little food and clothing, who can look at it?
Now after two months of conditioning, it is like a different person: white skin and beautiful appearance, graceful posture, coupled with the charm of a young woman, occasionally going out, the men in the village look straight in the eyes, so that Cai Dacheng and the others easily do not let her go out again.
What about Boa? used to be thin and white, but now the face is round and the body is rolling, not to mention how cute it is.
Cai Dacheng is in charge of it inside and out, and he feels very comfortable when he sees his family's complexion getting better.
The furniture was fully furnished and it was decided to move early.
So on the good day of the third day of the eighth lunar month, I invited relatives and friends to have a good meal in the new house and moved in.
The whole family lives in the east wing of the second main house. The room is not small, the oversized kang bed accounts for one-fifth, according to Zhao Jiao's requirements to customize the combination wardrobe, plus a children's bed, two into the hand-made, this arrangement, the whole room is full.
The west wing room is also prepared, but the kang bed is slightly smaller, the combined wardrobe is less than half, and a treadmill is added to it, so that children usually play without tossing on the bed. Two walls are fitted with wooden lattices, of different sizes, for children to put their stuff in.
The study room and sewing room of the front and the back are also equipped with kang beds according to the size of the room, and the guest hall is Chinese-style mahogany furniture, which belongs to the Central Plains, and is also like the northern part of Lu Province in the previous life, which is dry and cold in winter, so the hall house is added with a fire pond when the house is built.
It's autumn, the hottest at noon is more than ten degrees, the weather is fine during the day, and it rains on the night of check-in.
An autumn rain and a cold, tomorrow should be even colder.
Fortunately, during the construction of the house, Zhao Jiao had nothing to do and made a lot of clothes, so it was just right to take them out and wear them at this time.
And the quilt, Cai Dacheng didn't let her get started, too much! There must be thirty beds. Let Zhang Datou's family do it, and after it is done, they have sent it to their father and son in several batches in advance, which will be taken out and used just right.
Because the quilt is not small, it is two meters and four wide, and the quilt cover is added for the convenience of disassembly and washing.
Zhao Jiao took a shower and was wiping her hair, Cai Dacheng sent the washed Bao'er to bed and lay down on him, because he was telling a story today.
I usually feel very relaxed listening to Zhao Jiao's stories, but when it comes to him, it's jammy!
pondered for a long time, and finally made up a story about refusing to learn when he was studying medicine but curing people to death.
Zhao Jiao was dumbfounded! It's too bad to make it up, and the audience is a child under three years old! You are a dead man, a lawsuit, and a scolog! Don't teach your child badly if you listen too much!
kicked it over, Cai Dacheng quickly grabbed it in his hand, and said that Bao'er didn't pay attention to kiss it.
Zhao Jiao hurriedly gathered her feet, and Ercheng walked in on crutches at this time.
Although she was not satisfied with Cai Dacheng's storytelling, in the end, Bao'er couldn't stand the sleepiness and fell asleep, and made an appointment with her mother before going to bed to continue tomorrow, and never listen to her father again.
The room was a bit quiet for a while.
Ercheng sat behind Zhao Jiao, touching Xianhuai's belly with one hand and...
And Cai Dacheng hurriedly went to the bathroom to take a shower...
