The kerosene lamps hanging on the walls flickered, reflecting the cracks in the dirt walls like a large centipede that twisted and twisted, and it was terrifying.

Zhao Fangru washed her feet well, thought about it, and told Su Mingui about Su Yu's fall into the river a few days ago, and wanted him to get some wages to come out and go to Shangyang Village to buy a fish for Su Yu to make up for her body.

No matter what, it is impossible for a person to recover completely unhindered in a short period of time, and she is afraid that Su Yu will fall ill in the future. Su Yu is still young, so it's always right to pay attention to one thing.

"Isn't it okay? Since it's good, there's no need to spend that unjust money. ”

Su Mingui refused to take it, "I have to save my salary for the Chinese New Year, and pick up some tonic medicine for our mother to go to the town." Brother and sister, didn't they say that the shoes were torn and the feet were cold? I'll stop by and make them a pair of thicker insoles. ”

After soaking his feet, Zhao Fangru took off her worn cloth shoes, which were insoles she had woven from hay.

Hearing Su Mingui's words, he took off his shoes for a moment.

They have a closed environment here, with mostly mountains and trees, warm in winter and cool in summer. Although it is only July and the temperature is fine during the day, it is no different from the cold autumn in the morning and evening.

In winter, it will still be very cold, and when she goes out to work, she will often be frozen until her limbs are numb, and she doesn't know how many chilblains she will have on her feet.

He doesn't care about his wife or daughter, but he is dedicated to his mother and younger siblings.

For so many years, in addition to taking care of her when she was newly married and pregnant, after she gave birth to two daughters, his feelings for her gradually became cold.

She worked hard and never complained about him.

It's not the first time he's done this for so many years, but his attitude isn't as tough as it is now.

Zhao Fangru's eyebrows jumped slightly, and she always felt that something was wrong, but she couldn't talk about it.

It's dawn.

Chen Youping, the village head, came over and asked the two brothers, Su Mingui and Su Mincheng, to repair the embankment.

There are not enough people in the village, and there is no professional guidance to guide them, so it is particularly troublesome to build them, and the progress is slow.

Seven or eight people repaired for four or five days, and only repaired more than two meters.

Su Minwu packed large bags of dry food when it was dawn, and took a car to the county seat to study, and Zhang Cuifen and Kou Wenqing rushed to see him off.

At noon, Zhao Fangru cut the grass back to dry, and Su Yu took the remaining half of the chicken from yesterday, cut the meat and made fried chicken, boiled the soup with the internal organs, and sent rice to Su Mingui.

Su Yu was carrying a lunch box, and when she passed, a group of people were already sitting in the shade of the trees, chatting and blowing their shells.

"Big niece, it's not good to rest, come to bring food to your father? Do you have our share? ”

A couple of shirtless middle-aged men quipped.

"Uncle Chen." Su Yu handed the rice to Su Mingui, "If you bring meat, I promise to make it for you." ”

amused a few people, "Big girl, be careful here in the future, don't fall so-so again." ”

They had their own work to do every day, and they didn't know what happened that day, so they thought that Su Yu had recklessly crashed into the river.

Su Yu smiled and nodded, seeing that there were still people busy in the distance, and the hammer hammer rang out, "Uncle Chen, you have been working for some time, why did you repair so much?" ”

"Alas, it's hard to repair. Don't you see that our mother river is different from other rivers? The previous levee was half destroyed, crooked, and it was old and laborious. ”

"Then why do you have to rebuild the dam? It's a waste of manpower and material resources, so why not build a bridge? It's easier to build a bridge without taking too much into account the terrain. ”

"Repair the bridge?" Chen Minjun froze as he took off the towel.
