Chapter Ninety-Three: Everyone Is Waiting to See the Show
Shen Dashan first climbed onto the roof and took down the weathered straw and wheat stalks.
Only then did you see more clearly how leaky the roof was.
It hasn't been repaired for several years, one is not rich, and the other is also not time, and the straw is always pressed on the old roof when the rainy season comes, year after year, although it can prevent some rain, but it has become less and less useful.
Shen Yuerong asked Shen Dashan to spread a layer of thick wheat straw on the roof first, and then handed over the loess mixture, and explained to Shen Dashan carefully: "Dad, this soil is very sticky now, and I also put straw that is not so thin, you just spread a layer on top of the wheat straw, not too thick, but it should be even, just like you sow seeds." ”
Shen Dashan understood a little and didn't understand a little, he spread a small piece and beckoned Shen Yuerong to come up and check.
"Yue'er, can this dirt really work?"
Shen Yuerong said with a smile: "Dad, don't worry, this soil has been stepped on by me, and if it is dried in the sun, it will be as strong as a stone, and it can keep warm, and it is not easy to absorb water." ”
Shen Yuerong saw that there was no problem with Shen Dashan's shop, and after listening to his daughter's explanation, Shen Dashan also boldly began to spread the house.
Lin Muqiu came back with the vegetables: "You guys are laying it out, why are you so disobedient, then don't lay my roof, I just need straw and wheat stalks, this is paved with mud, and it won't let people live when it rains?" You're going to be a hoho girl! ”
Shen Yuerong really couldn't complain about this stupid woman, and she didn't cry when she saw the coffin: "Dad, you will repair the main house according to your method, and today we will first repair the hut and the hall according to my method." ”
Lin Muqiu looked proud, and said to a few passers-by watching at the door: "Look at it, it's useless for me to talk about this house, I can only control my own house first, you can all see it, this mud is what she wants to pave herself, don't say that I abused her when I look back." ”
Under Shen Dashan's hard work, the two rooms were quickly paved with yellow mud, although Shen Dashan was very unskilled, but the paving was quite even.
"Dad, spread another thin layer of wheat straw, and press it a little after you finish spreading." Before the soil dried, a thin layer of wheat straw was spread, and the soil tightly stuck the two layers of wheat straw together.
In the end, Shen Yuerong beckoned Shen Dashan to spread a layer of bamboo leaves intact, and finally spread a thick layer of straw that had been tied up.
Shen Yuerong was very satisfied, and moved a few more stones, letting Shen Dashan press on the straw.
"Don't press the stone on the roof of the main house, how can we have such a strong wind here, don't don't!"
No matter how Shen Dashan persuaded him, Lin Muqiu refused to let the stone be pressed, saying that he was afraid of being stoned to death in his sleep.
It's summer now, and it's mainly about rain, and although the house is a little leaky, it's not a tight thing in summer, but it's quite cool.
Shen Yuerong decided to repair the roof like this, and the wall of the house would wait for the summer.
The main house was paved with wheat straw and new straw, and the family was satisfied.
Lin Muqiu was still saying cool words there: "This girl in our family is really stupid, when it rains back, you as a neighbor can come to help clean up, I can't finish the mud in this house until I die, I can't count on this stupid girl." ”
A few neighbors nodded in agreement, but instead of thinking about coming to help, they thought that they would definitely come over to watch the show when it rained.
This girl of the Shen family has made so much money and bought so many things, and now she can't even look down on the little brother of the Liu family, and she is proud of it.
It would be a good joke to watch her play.
The next day, it was sunny.
Shen Yuerong carefully inspected the roof, the soil on the roof was almost dry, and there were not many cracks.
Lin Muqiu looked disdainful: "You girl is fate, why doesn't it rain yet." ”
For several days on end, it was a sunny day.
Shen Yuerong's winery methodically brewed wine, sold wine, added equipment, and imported raw materials, and Shen Dashan also took advantage of the sunny day to enter the mountain again.
Unexpectedly, when he caught a little wild boar this time, passers-by were very red-eyed, and they sold two taels of silver to Lin Muqiu, which made Lin Muqiu very happy.
Lin Muqiu said to Shen Dashan with a greedy face: "Master, you go a few more times this year, and catch a wild boar or something, and we will have money." ”
Shen Dashan sat in the hall without saying a word and repaired tools.
Finally, the first rain after the roof was repaired came in Lin Muqiu's long-awaited prayers.
Early in the morning, it was dark, thunder was loud, and wind and rain were combined.
Lin Muqiu hid in the house in fear, and secretly scolded: "Cheap hoof, I'll go to you after the rain is over." ”
The "boom" thunder was getting louder and louder, and the frightened Lin Muqiu hugged Shen Jing tightly.
"Grandpa Wang, I'll go over after the rain."
It rained early in the morning, and the wind was still very strong, Shen Yuerong couldn't go to the winery, and Shen Nianhua didn't go to Wang Xiucai's house, but just said hello to Wang Xiucai through the courtyard wall.
Shen Dashan, who was originally going to help in the winery today, was also sitting in the hall at this time and packed up the bow and arrow for hunting.
He glanced up at the roof, nothing was done, and he was relieved.
Shen Yuerong had nothing to do, so she chatted happily with her younger brother while eating melon seeds.
"Help, help!" Lin Muqiu's ghostly roar came.
The three of them braved the heavy rain and hurriedly rushed to the main house, and Lin Muqiu hid in the corner of the wall with his hair full of hair and hugged Shen Jing shivering.
The bed had been wet from the heavy rain, and the wind was pouring into the house, and when I looked at the roof, the straw had been lifted.
Shen Dashan wanted Lin Muqiu to go to the hall to hide from the rain, and just about to leave the house, there was a loud thunder, Lin Muqiu refused to go out of the room, and was only willing to curl up in the corner of the main house.
The last time Shen Yuerong scared her, she still remembered it clearly, she was really afraid of being struck by lightning.
The three of them had no choice but to take Shen Jing to the hall and let Lin Muqiu continue to hide in the corner.
An hour later, the rain finally stopped, Shen Nianhua went to Wang Xiucai's house, and Shen Yuerong was also ready to go to the winery.
As soon as I opened the door, I saw several good things standing at the door, and when I saw Shen Yuerong, she only smiled and said, "Yue'er, your mother said last time, let us come over in the rain to help clean up, do you need help?" ”
It turned out that it was a joke, Shen Yuerong let go of her body and said, nodding heavily: "Yes, yes, very much, you all go in and find my mother." ”
Several eldest ladies squeezed the courtyard of Shen Yuerong's house with a look of joke on their faces, wanting to see what the roof made of soil was drenched.
But when I went in, I found that the roof was fine, and the hall with the door open did not have any mud spots.
There was a bundle of straw in the courtyard, and at the door of the main house, it looked like the roof of the main house had been blown down by the wind.
Several ladies glanced at each other, and just as they didn't know what to do, the main house opened the door.
Lin Muqiu's face was frightened, the flesh on his face was still shaking unconsciously, his hair was very messy by the wind, and his body was a little wet.
walked out step by step with difficulty, looking at several ladies in the courtyard.
Several aunts began to snicker when they saw Lin Muqiu's embarrassed appearance, and some couldn't hold back their laughter.
Lin Muqiu woke up like a dream and shouted: "Shen Yuerong, it's all your fault for being a mourning star, and after harming my brother, you came to harm me again!" ”
Shen Yuerong turned around, walked to Lin Muqiu's side, and said word by word: "It's you who don't let the main house be paved with soil, it's you who don't let your father press stones on the main house, it's because you are afraid of being struck by lightning, and you don't dare to go out of the house to the hall to take shelter from the rain!" Besides, your brother was instructed by you to steal wine, and he set fire to you to get angry, if you want to talk about the death star, I don't dare to rob you of this credit! ”
Lin Muqiu wanted to interject and argue, but Shen Yuerong didn't give this opportunity at all, and after saying this, she ignored Lin Muqiu's ugly face and walked away.
