Chapter 5: Mending the House

This time, she brought a machete, she needed a medium wood two wrists thick, and after cutting a tree, she cut off the branch part of the branch to make it look like a cane, and then carried the tree back home with the cane.

Feng Yuchen didn't take a nap at all, he sat on the edge of the bed and looked at Tong Xiaowu who was busy outside the window, with mixed feelings in his heart.

"What do you think I've brought back for you?" Tong Xiaowu's cheerful voice appeared at the door of the house, and then her cheerful figure rushed to him, and a brand-new cane appeared in front of his eyes.

Although it was a bit badly chopped, its shape was particularly suitable for his current needs, and he used wooden sticks before, which were not very stressful.

"You try it......" Tong Xiaowu stuffed the cane into Feng Yuchen's hand, and reached out to help her up, she was covered in sweat, her hair was soaked in sweat and adhered to her face, and her face was as dirty as a little cat.

Feng Yuchen's eyes were in a trance, why did she look like this in his eyes: "It's very useful!" ”

"Really? Great, you rest, I'll go get busy......"

Putting down Feng Yuchen, Tong Xiaowu came to the outside of the yard, there were uneven places in the yard, she used a shovel to tidy it up, just turned the excess soil into a small dirt bag, and then picked up water and began to make mud.

"What are you doing?" Feng Yuchen came to the courtyard on crutches.

Tong Xiaowu put down the work in his hand, went into the house and moved a stool for him, and asked him to sit down, "You see that the walls of the house are soaked in rain and lack of mud, I will fill in a layer to prevent the rain from soaking the house." ”

"You don't have to do it, I'll do it when my leg is healed." Feng Yuchen had no expression on his face, and there was a trace of guilt in his eyes when he spoke.

"It's okay, I'm not tired!" Tong Xiaowu began to mend the root of the wall.

"I said, don't do it, I'll get it!" Feng Yuchen's voice suddenly raised, it was his man's self-esteem, he felt that these jobs should be done by men.

When Tong Xiaowu heard this, he threw down the shovel in his hand, turned around and sat on the other half of the stool he was sitting on: "Okay, I won't get ......"

Obviously they are all injured, but they are still reckless and awkward?

Minutes and seconds passed, and the two of them sat side by side in the courtyard, neither of them speaking.

On the other side of the fence wall, the maid squatted over there, looking at this side along the gap in the fence, and saw that the two of them had been sitting together for a long time without speaking, and couldn't help but shout:

"The bride and groom worship the flower hall, please give me a piece of candy,

Sina New Year's Worship Flower Hall, please give me a piece of sugar,

Uncle and aunt are married, uncle and aunt are married......"

"Puff ......" didn't hold back for a while, Tong Xiaowu laughed, she stretched out her fist and hit Feng Yuchen, the corners of Feng Yuchen's mouth moved, and he also bent up.

"Let's do it together, you will command, I will fill the mud, do you say?" Tong Xiaowu tilted her head and looked at the man on the side.

His face softened a lot, and there was still a hint of a smile on his lips, and he nodded, standing up on crutches.

Sure enough, the two of them did things much easier than one person, although Feng Yuchen didn't do much, Tong Xiaowu still felt a kind of comfort that he had never felt before.

"Did you get that go-tech grass to mend the house?"

Feng Yuchen, who doesn't like to talk much, looked at the high-tech grass drying in the yard, and couldn't help but ask, in addition to using straw for the roof of the thatched house, this can only be used, this kind of grass is waterproof and strong, which is an ideal thatched house building material.

"Well, in a moment you can use a wooden pole to help me carry it underneath, help me support the purlins, and then trap the grass into small bundles, and then you can repair the leaks in the roof."

Seeing that he could also help, Feng Yuchen nodded.

Soon, the two filled in the missing soil at the root of the earthen house wall, Tong Xiaowu borrowed a ladder from Sister-in-law Fulin's house, and Brother Fulin went to the town, but he was not at home, and Sister-in-law Fulin also came to help.

The little girl also followed, and picked a few tomatoes and gave them to Tong Xiaowu.

"Sister-in-law, thank you so much!"

"No thanks, you guys live a good life, give birth to a big fat boy for my Yuchen brother in the coming year, a family of three will have a good life, better than anything else!" Sister-in-law Fulin said that she was not the master of the Tibetan shackles.

Hearing this, Tong Xiaowu's face instantly burned like fire, so shy, the owner is only sixteen years old, what did Sister-in-law Fulin say?

Although early marriage and early childbearing were practiced in ancient times, Tong Xiaowu did not accept it in his heart, but ......

She turned her head to look at Feng Yuchen on the side, and her face turned even redder.

"Sister-in-law, don't worry, we'll have a good time." Suddenly, Feng Yuchen, who didn't like to talk, actually opened his mouth to express his attitude.

This made Tong Xiaowu's heart thump, "I, I...... I'm in the room! ”

Feng Yuchen was holding a wooden pole against the purlin that Tong Xiaowu had chopped back from the forest, and Fulin's sister-in-law was also holding a pole against the other side.

Because the roof is made of hay, only one person can step on the roof, Tong Xiaowu stepped on the purlins that were not broken, carried a thick rope, and dragged the purlins that had just been cut back to the roof little by little, replacing the broken wooden purlins, Tong Xiaowu began to lay high grass.

Feng Yuchen sat on a stool and used a straw rope to trap Gaoke grass into small bundles, and Sister-in-law Fulin helped transport it to the roof, and even the little girl on the side also helped carry it.

After a busy afternoon, when the sky was getting dark, a few people finally finished repairing the grass roof.

Tong Xiaowu looked at the fruits of her labor, she was very happy, she watched the sunset, a group of children ran down the mountain, the corners of their mouths curved into crescents.

A few bear children ran down from the bottom of the mountain, and saw Tong Xiaowu on the roof from a distance, Feng Yuchen is a well-known handsome guy in the village, and he used to be proficient in hunting and catching fish, and in fist and foot kung fu, there is no one in the village who is unbeatable.

However, Feng Yuchen was injured and was driven out by the Feng family, and the news of marrying a lazy woman had already spread in the village.

Now, the woman was sitting on the roof, and several children picked up the lump on the side of the road and threw it at Tong Xiaowu: "Lazy mother-in-law, ugly mother-in-law, lazy and ugly stupid mother-in-law, fat daughter-in-law, black daughter-in-law, fat and black stupid daughter-in-law......"

A few children jumped and shouted as they threw lumps.

Tong Xiaowu, who was sitting on the roof, was stunned, and she didn't feel it after a few hits.

What do you mean? Fat daughter-in-law? Black daughter-in-law? Fat, dark and ugly daughter-in-law?

Tong Xiaowu seemed to have something in her mind that suddenly returned to her place, and she covered her mouth in disbelief!

"Get out, a bunch of stinky boys, don't go home again, be careful I tell your mother to go......" Sister-in-law Fulin yelled, scared a few bear children and disappeared.
