Lin Aimin was carrying half-human-high reeds behind him, his waist was bent, and Lin Changping and the three of them were also carrying a lot of reeds on their backs, and the father and son walked home panting.

Looking up and seeing so many people in his yard, Lin Aimin quickened his pace;

Zhang Hongbing saw it, hurriedly walked two steps, and helped Lin Aimin carry the reeds into the yard.

The old branch secretary said to Lin Aimin: "I have dry reeds at home, you use them first." ”

Lin Aimin hurriedly thanked him, "Thank you, Uncle Branch." ”

The old branch secretary nodded and said to everyone: "Don't stand,"

"You go to the river and dig some cement."

"Go and pull out all the grass on the wall..."

After a while, the old branch secretary arranged work for the people in the courtyard, and everyone answered, so they repeatedly rolled up their sleeves and began to work.

Sister-in-law Zhou and Zhao Yanan built an earthen stove in the corner of the yard, and asked Lin Changping to take his two younger brothers to pick up some firewood for cooking.

After setting up the earthen stove, Sister-in-law Zhou wiped the sweat on her forehead with her sleeve, and said to Zhao Yanan: "You don't have a pot at home, but there is a broken crockpot at home, I'll bring it to you, and by the way, I'll get you some dishes and chopsticks." ”

When the old branch secretary on the side heard it, he said: "I have two pots at home, I will lend one to you first, and I have extra dishes and chopsticks in my house, so come with me to get them at home." ”

Zhao Yanan was moved in his heart, and secretly wrote down the favor, Zhou's sister-in-law's family was not rich, so Zhao Yanan listened to the words of the old branch secretary and followed the old branch secretary to the old branch secretary's house.

The old branch secretary looked at it before leaving, and asked the old village chief to look at it here.

When I arrived at the old branch secretary's house, the branch secretary's daughter-in-law was in the house to collect the soles of her shoes, and when she saw Zhao Yanan coming, she greeted her warmly.

The old branch secretary said the situation, and Zhao Yanan was a little embarrassed, "It's troublesome, auntie." ”

"Hey," the secretary's daughter-in-law sighed, "Your child is also miserable," and said, "What's so troublesome about this, I'll get it for you." ”

The secretary's daughter-in-law put a small iron pot, seven bowls, and seven pairs of chopsticks in a bamboo basket and handed it to Zhao Yanan, "You take it and use it first, don't be in a hurry to return it." ”

Zhao Yanan took it with red eyes, thanked the two of them again, and went back.

As soon as Zhao Yanan left, the branch secretary's daughter-in-law couldn't help complaining: "This father and mother are also ruthless, and they simply take Sanfang as an enemy!" ”

The old branch secretary took a puff of cigarette, "Okay, don't say it, worry about it!" ”

Zhao Yanan returned home and opened the bamboo basket only to find that the secretary's daughter-in-law also wrapped her in paper with some salt, and Zhao Yanan was even more moved.

With an earthen stove and pots and bowls, Zhao Yanan boiled a pot of white batter and put a little salt in it.

Zhao Yanan took the dishes and chopsticks to wash, and scooped a bowl for Lin Yin first, asking Lin Yin to eat it quickly.

and beckoned the others to eat.

Zhao Yanan cooked a lot, and the only thing their family can handle now is this white batter.

Sister-in-law Zhou hurriedly waved her hand, "You and the child eat, we all came to eat." ”

I all know that Sanfang is in difficulty now, and everyone came to help, and I didn't think about eating here.

Zhao Yanan let it a few times, and when he saw that everyone really didn't eat it, he knew that everyone had good intentions, so he ate it with a few children, and scooped a bowl for Lin Aimin.

When the sun set in the afternoon, the dilapidated adobe house was finally rested and looked less dilapidated, and the village chief asked Zhang Hongbing to take a piece of white paper from his home and paste it on the window.

Zhao Yanan had already borrowed a basin from Zhou's sister-in-law's house, fetched a basin of water for everyone, asked everyone to wash their hands, and re-boiled a pot of confusion.

Lin Aimin and Zhao Yanan warmly invited, and the last of the people drank a bowl of confusion before leaving.

When the others left, Zhao Yanan said to Lin Aimin: "Child, dad, take a break, drink the bowl in a daze." ”

Lin Aimin said: "I'll pick up some more dry firewood, spread it on the ground in a while, and spread a few layers of hay on the dry firewood, otherwise we won't have a place to sleep at night." ”

Zhao Yanan sighed, "Then you have to eat and go again, don't be tired." ”

Lin Aimin responded with a smile, washed his hands, drank and went to work with his three sons.

In the evening, Zhao Yanan went to find some wormwood and lit it, and smoked the house, which was smoky and choking, choking Lin Yin's tears.

After the smoke cleared, Zhao Yanan asked Lin Aimin and a few children to hurry into the house.

The house was smoked by wormwood, but there were no mosquitoes, the family was lying on the ground, Lin Yin couldn't stop yawning and was a little sleepy, although there was hay under him, it was still hard, very sleepy, but he couldn't sleep.

Except for her, the others adapted well, after all, they were tired after working for a long time, and after a while, Lin Aimin's snoring sounded in the house.

Lin Yin thought happily in her heart, fortunately it was summer, and in winter, their family was afraid that they would freeze to death...

Lin Yin didn't know when she fell asleep, and the next day, she was woken up by a burst of scolding.

When Lin Yin woke up, she was the only one left in the house, Lin Yin stood up, walked out, pushed open half of the door, and saw an old grandmother standing in the yard, who was splitting her head and covering her face;

"Lin Aimin, what did you say when you married my daughter? Did you forget it yourself? ”

"My daughter gave birth to you and raised children, I don't want you to be rich and rich, but you can't lose my daughter;"

"There used to be a shelter from the wind and rain, but now my daughter is about to sleep on the street with you and ask for food..."

"And you..."The old lady pointed at Zhao Yanan, "You are also useless, you have been ridden by someone to, and pee, and you don't know how to say anything; ”

"When they told you to go out of your house, you went out of your house? Stupid or not? ”

"Even if you want to split up, you should send someone to inform me and your father, right? We're here to support you! ”

"Look at where you live now, the pigsty at home is better than this, there is not even a kang in it, you two have to suffer, I don't bother to care, my grandson and granddaughter can't suffer with you..."

Lin Yin guessed that the old woman in front of her should be her grandmother with this body.

It was mentioned once in the book, Lin Changping's right hand was abolished, and the old lady appeared once, and learned that Lin Changping's right hand was abolished and related to Yang Liu, so he went to the door of Yang's house and scolded for a day, and the scolded Yang widow and Yang Liu did not dare to go out;

After that, not long after, the old lady fell ill and died.

Xu Hongmei was training her daughter and son-in-law, and the three grandsons stood aside and didn't dare to say anything, and when she turned her head, she saw Lin Yin standing at the door of the house.

The old lady liked Lin Yin very much, and when she saw Lin Yin busily shouting, "Grandma, are you awake?" ”

Lin Yin nodded and smiled sweetly at the old lady, "Grandma." ”

"Hey," the old lady immediately smiled, stepped forward and picked up Lin Yin with great effort, Lin Yin was afraid that the old lady would drop her, so she hurriedly said: "Grandma, I'm sinking." ”

"It's not sinking, it's not sinking, and grandma can hold it no matter how heavy it is."

The old lady was old, and after hugging her for a while, she felt that her arm was sore, and she was afraid of falling her granddaughter, so she hurriedly put Lin Yin down and sat on the door frame by herself.
