Chapter Twenty-Five: Robbery Moving
Regarding Cui Lao Xiucai's rejection, several people had already expected it, and Shen Xiaoyu said to Father Shen: "Let's not be idle, let's move things first!" After that, he and Father Shen threw all the corn and peppers dried in the yard onto the ox cart, and the things in the yard went to get the house.
"What are you going to do? Robbery? Cui Laoxiu saw that Shen Xiaoyu and Father Shen took everything they saw, so he said: "You can't rob, I won't leave, you all hurry up and put it down for me!" ”
Shen Xiaoyu smiled and said, "Grandpa Cui, it's not interesting for you to be here, how good it is to have us take care of you in the future!" As he spoke, he took off all the paintings of the four gentlemen hanging on the wall, rolled them up, and took them out.
"My plum orchid bamboo chrysanthemum! You put it down for me! Put it down! Cui Laoxiu shouted that he was about to go to the ground, but he was sick for a few days, and he didn't even have the energy to scold.
Shen Xiaoyu crossed the border like a bandit, and after rummaging through the boxes and cabinets and loading everything into the ox cart, he shouted outside the door: "Uncle An, please come in and take a hand!" ”
Uncle An was also enthusiastic, and when he came in with Father Shen, he lifted Cui Laoxiucai's mattress and quilt all the way, and went out very smoothly and put them on the ox cart.
Cui Fenglan saw that it was quite smooth, so she put away the clothes on the bed, found a lock, and locked the small door of the door.
"What are you doing here! I'm a bad old man, and I'm not going to you to mess with you! Cui Laoxiu said, in the final analysis, he was still afraid that he would be useless, and when the time came, he would make trouble, so that his daughter would not be able to raise her head!
Father Shen said, "There's nothing to mess with." ”
"That's it!" Shen Xiaoyu catered to.
Here, Cui Lao Xiucai was still struggling to say that he would not leave, but there was a "boom", and then a cloud of dust and smoke was stirred.
Everyone followed the sound and looked over, and Daddy Cui's house had collapsed.
"It's a shame that you came out quickly just now, or you will be shot to death, old man, you are really blessed!" Uncle An said in shock.
Shen Xiaoyu looked at Cui Lao Xiucai with a smile and a smile, this time he didn't say anything, he was completely wilted.
"Let's go!" Father Shen said, and Cui Fenglan next to him added: "I knew that the door was not locked just now, and the locks were saved!" ”
A large family swayed back to Sihe Village in an ox cart, and when they entered the village, some acquaintances looked at it and asked, "Is this bringing my father-in-law here?" ”
Father Shen smiled and nodded: "Hmm." ”
Cui Laoxiu blushed, and then asked Shen Xiaoyu: "How long is it going to be?" ”
"Soon, soon!" Shen Xiaoyu said, Sihe Village is not much of a place.
When they arrived at the place, Father Shen and Uncle An still used the old way to get Cui Laoxiu to the kang in Shen Xiaoyu's house, and Cui Laoxiu wondered: "I live here, where does Xiaoyu live?" ”
"It's not cold today, I'm in the hospital, and I'll build a house at home in a few days." Shen Xiaoyu said, this was also discussed early in the morning, and her house had to be cleaned up sooner or later.
Cui Laoxiu sighed: "It's really old, it's useless, make these troubles!" "It also involves this Shen Xiaoyu to sleep in the yard, although the weather is not cold, but there is also a cool breeze outside, in case the sweeping wind blows, it will make a crooked eye!
Shen Xiaoyu smiled: "You say this again, who hasn't had such a day!" ”
After the things on the ox cart were tossed, Shen Xiaoyu followed Uncle An to Lu Butterfly.
"The clothes will be finished soon, so I'm sure you'll be put on before the heat gets on!" Shen Xiaoyu said.
Lu Butterfly smiled: "Okay, I'm not in a hurry, you just do it slowly." Originally, she was looking for someone to help, but she didn't rush it.
Mrs. Lu came out of the kitchen at this time and said with a sad face: "Butterfly, let's drink corn porridge at night, there is not much food at home." "Their life is not very good, they belong to the state of sitting and eating nothing.
Lu Butterfly nodded: "I know." Looking at the dilapidated house in front of him, Lu Butterfly's heart was also sour. Thinking about how beautiful the Prince's Mansion was at the beginning, what did she want to eat, and how could she have thought that she would be able to live such a life one day?
Shen Xiaoyu didn't know the specific situation of Lu Butterfly's family, so he didn't want to ask too much, so he said hello and went home first.
Lu Butterfly pondered, she thought that this poor countryside was full of uninformed village girls, but she didn't want to have someone as smart and refreshing as Shen Xiaoyu.
Shen Xiaoyu went home, and first changed Daddy Cui's quilt with Cui Fenglan. I have been sick for many days, it is raining and sweating, and if the quilt is wet, I am afraid that I will get a bedsoresm.
After Shen Xiaoyu hung the quilt, he took out the clothes made for Lu Butterfly and continued to sew them, and the rest of Cui Fenglan could do it herself.
Shen Xiaoyu pondered that the house must be built, there are a few idlers in the village, and labor is easy to find, but the wood or something has to be looked for carefully.
At night, Shen Xiaoyu counted the money he had saved in the past three years, and it was enough to build a house.
"Why don't you count the money and carry me on your back?" Cui Laoxiu leaned on the kang and said.
Shen Xiaoyu said with a smile: "Grandpa Cui is not an outsider either!" "Besides, I'm still sick, can I still run away with the money?
Cui Laoxiu smiled: "The little girl is still so clever and clever." "He's a man of letters, and he always reminds himself not to do things like Sven.
Shen Xiaoyu laughed twice, and then said: "After our family's money is finished building the house, there will be a little leftover, and the house will be built better this time, and I won't have to worry about marrying a daughter-in-law when my aunt gives birth to a younger brother in the future." ”
Cui Lao Xiucai asked, "Aren't you afraid that your aunt will be a little cabbage if she gives birth to a younger brother?" ”
"What's the cabbage now? Besides, my aunt is not that kind of person! Shen Xiaoyu said with a smile, she didn't care, even if she had a younger brother, she didn't have the life to fight for anything, what else did Cui Fenglan do not treat her.
Cui Laoxiu lay down and sighed, he also heard Cui Fenglan say about Shen Xiaoyu, and he wondered in his heart how many hardships are good people!
Shen Xiaoyu calculated the money, and hid the money under the bed under the stone bricks and pressed it.
After dinner, Lu Butterfly came to find Shen Xiaoyu, and the two walked to the big tree root at the head of the village to sit together and chat.
"I've figured out what I'm going to do, and tomorrow I'll go to the market to buy grain." Lu Butterfly said.
Shen Xiaoyu asked, "What are you going to do?" Is it to buy food to eat? ”
Lu Butterfly nodded: "I will start making steamed cakes tomorrow, I want to ask you, is there a steamed cake sold in the city?" ”
Shen Xiaoyu thought for a while and shook his head: "It's really not, you should have seen it that day, it's basically baked cake fritters or something, but what do you make of steamed cakes?" ”
Lu Butterfly said: "When I make it, you can taste it, if you think it is good, I can sell it if I think about it." ”
Shen Xiaoyu nodded: "Your craftsmanship must be good!" Tomorrow you want to buy grain, I will take you to a store, the grain is cheap, you just start trading, you can save as much as you can. ”
Lu Butterfly nodded: "Xiaoyu, you are so good!" ”
Shen Xiaoyu smiled: "That's good?" ”
Lu Butterfly said: "It's good, I used to meet a lot of thieves." ”
"It's not a bad thing to have a lot of eyes, and not everyone is a good person." Shen Xiaoyu said, I have been trading for a few years, and I have seen all kinds of people.
Lu Butterfly shook her head: "Some people can just laugh at you, but you are different, you always help me." ”
"What is this, there are many good people in our village!" Shen Xiaoyu said with a smile, but she is also very happy, someone will remember your kindness, and will not treat your kindness as if you were stupid and bullied, but thank you for your kindness in her heart.
The two made an appointment to meet at the entrance of the village tomorrow morning, and went to the city together, after which they went home.
The road was dark, but the village was quite peaceful, and when the two of them walked halfway, a person suddenly came out of the alley, which startled Shen Xiaoyu.
"What the hell just now?" Shen Xiaoyu was shocked, clutching his chest and asking, "Is it a person or a monkey?" ”
Lu Butterfly also looked at it, and said, "Monkey? Is there such a big one? ”
Shen Xiaoyu saw that there was a wooden stick on the side of the road, so she directly copied it in her hand and said, "Let's go quickly!" Her heart was also sudden.
By the way, he arrived at Lu Butterfly's house first, and Lu Butterfly called Uncle An out to send Shen Xiaoyu home.
Someone sent it, Shen Xiaoyu felt at ease, Uncle An was still holding an old lantern, and the two of them walked all the way, and they all saw the door of the Shen family, and the black shadow came out again!
Uncle An was also taken aback, but this time the "monkey" did not leave, but leaned against the wall and did not move.
Uncle An lifted the lantern forward, and Shen Xiaoyu breathed a sigh of relief when he saw it clearly, it turned out to be a thin beggar.
"Oops, it scared the hell out of me! I thought it was haunted! Shen Xiaoyu patted his chest.
When the beggar saw that someone was coming, he said in a weak voice, "Hungry..."
Shen Xiaoyu saw that this person was also pitiful, so he took out half a piece of bread from his arms and gave it to the man, and said, "I just have this half, and there is no more." Then he moved on.
Uncle An sent people to the place and went back first, and Shen Xiaoyu thanked him and went back to the house.
"What's wrong?" Father Shen asked.
"There's a beggar outside, it scares me, but in this poor and remote part of our village, the beggar has to go to a rich place like Liaoyang City even if he has dinner, right?" Shen Xiaoyu said.
Father Shen said: "I'm afraid I'm passing by, and I'll leave tomorrow." ”
Shen Xiaoyu nodded, drank a sip of water and went to sleep first.
Although the yard is not cold in summer, there are many mosquitoes, Shen Xiaoyu slept overnight and bit several bags.
"This bites, or tomorrow you go into the house to sleep, and I will come out to sleep." Cui Fenglan broke a piece of honey locust and smeared it on Shen Xiaoyu's bag as she spoke.
Shen Xiaoyu shook his head: "No, I sewed the tent and hung it up." "It's time to put the building of a house on the agenda.
The three of them dealt with some food casually, Shen Xiaoyu and Father Shen went to the city, and Cui Fenglan took care of it at home.
When he left the village, Shen Xiaoyu saw the beggar again and walked slowly and leisurely outside the village.
At the entrance of the village, they met Lu Butterfly, and the three of them set off towards Liaoyang City.
"Uncle Huang, this is my friend, you sell her cheaper, and she will buy food from you in the future!" Shen Xiaoyu first took Lu Butterfly to buy grain, and he has been buying it from Boss Huang for the past few years, and he has never been short of catties or two.
Boss Huang was a short and fat middle-aged man, and said with a smile: "Xiaoyu, you are also a regular customer, don't worry!" ”
Lu Butterfly and Boss Huang said what they wanted, the price was really cheap, and they immediately bought ten catties, although it was not much, but now it is the trial stage, and there is no need to buy too much.
When the two of them got out of the grain store, they went to the Shen family's stall first, and the sister-in-law who took the screen came after a while.
"Oh, it's so good, I almost thought it had never been broken!" The sister-in-law was obviously satisfied.
Shen Xiaoyu said with a smile: "This is the meal I eat, it's nothing." ”
The eldest sister-in-law gave the money, and left happily, and Qin Huaijin came on the back foot.
"I brought the fabric, have you seen enough?" Qin Huaijin said and put half a piece of cloth up.
