Chapter 036: Calm down
In the early morning of more than five o'clock, the sky was just clear, the roosters in the village began to crow, and the sparrows and Zhizhi on the trees also competed to show their singing voices.
When Lin Xiaohuan opened her eyes, she was the only one on the bed, and Lin Xiu had already gotten up to cook breakfast.
Tying her hair up casually, she walked to the door and was greeted by a breath of fresh air, accompanied by a gentle breeze, which made people fresh and comfortable.
Zhao Yue'e was sitting at the door waking up, the pu fan in her hand waved again and again, heard the movement, turned around and smiled at her: "Get up, it's not hot, why don't you sleep for a while?" ”
"I can't sleep, grandma." Lin Xiaohuan smiled and responded to her words,
After speaking, she raised her eyes to look at the morning light in the east, thinking in her heart that Su Luo was a person who was used to getting up early, so she should leave.
Shaking his head and rubbing his face, Lin Xiaohuan began to wash, and after washing, he squatted at the door again, washing the clothes that everyone changed last night.
Summer clothes were very thin, so she rubbed them with soap for a while, then took the bathtub and stepped on the mottled ground with the shadows of the trees, and walked towards the side of the road.
When passing by the old army commander's house, Li Chunhua called out to her, "Xiao Huan, go and clean your clothes, the little girl is diligent, and her clothes have been washed so early." ”
Lin Xiaohuan smiled, but her eyes caught a glimpse of the clothes drying in her yard, and she immediately cried and laughed, "Grandma Li, am I still diligent?" You see your clothes are all dried, and I'm going to clean them. ”
Li Chunhua smiled and said: "I got up early today because of Xiao Su, the kid left early today, it is estimated that he should go to the county this time, he wants to catch the earliest bus back to Nancheng." ”
Lin Xiaohuan listened with a smile all the time, and it wasn't until the last sentence that he couldn't help but speak: "Didn't Brother Su go back to the Xicheng Military Region?" She had always thought so.
"No, he still has about half a month left on vacation." Li Chunhua continued, glanced at Lin Xiaohuan after speaking, and then spoke: "Because tomorrow is his grandfather's death day, and next week it will be his mother's death day, and he has no other relatives at home, so go back in advance to prepare." ”
How so?
Lin Xiaohuan's eyes widened, the amount of information in Li Chunhua's words was too much.
Recently, it was the death day of his grandfather and mother, and there were no other relatives at home, so did it mean that his father had also left?
Now he is alone, just like his former self.
I don't know if his cold and reticent personality has anything to do with his background......
The more she thought about it, the more trance Lin Xiaohuan became, and she reluctantly responded to Li Chunhua, and walked towards Datang with her clothes.
Li Chunhua turned around and went back to the courtyard, and Lin Wencai walked over, "You deliberately told Xiao Huan about Xiao Su?" He had just stretched around the corner of the courtyard and could hear the conversation between the two of them clearly.
"Well, I want her to know more about Xiao Su." He replied with a smile.
This answer made Lin Wencai a little surprised, "What are you trying to do?" ”
"It's okay, I just think these two kids are good." Li Chunhua smiled mysteriously and entered the house.
Lin Wencai stared at her back, and suddenly thought that she tried her best to encourage Xiao Huan to enter the army last night, and immediately patted her head and said to herself with a smile, "So that's what it means......"
After Lin Xiaohuan dried his clothes, it was time for breakfast, and after eating, he was busy washing the dishes and chopsticks, and then helped Lin Xiu simply clean up the house.
At the end of July, after Su Luo left, her life returned to simple and normal, just as when she first woke up.
On the weekend of early August, Lin Shan went to the town early in the morning to buy vegetables, planning to invite the old military commander and his wife to come over for dinner at noon.
The village likes to invite people to dinner, so Lin Xiaohuan got up early in the morning and went to the old commander's house to do housework, and did not forget to collude with him.
When he came back, Lin Shan also came back from the town, and Lin Xiu and Liu Qiang followed him when they didn't go to work on Sunday.
"Xiao Huan, the matter between Huang Hai and Dong Biao has come to an end, Dong Biao was directly fired from the factory, Huang Hai was transferred, and the county sent a new deputy factory director." As soon as Lin Xiu saw Lin Xiaohuan, she told her the latest situation.
Dong Biao's handling, Lin Xiaohuan felt very normal, but Huang Hai surprised her, "What does it mean to be transferred, have you arranged other jobs for him?" ”
Liu Qiang knew that she was strange, so he explained: "This is not clear to everyone, the announcement in the factory also said that he was dismissed, but someone privately said that he was transferred, the person in Huanghai was very cautious, I don't know if he really didn't make a big mistake, or if he was hidden deeply, the factory didn't find any big problems after a few days of investigation, but Dong Biao exposed a lot of problems." ”
Lin Xiaohuan was a little disappointed.
Lin Xiu excitedly continued: "This time Wang Hong was also implicated, her husband harmed the interests of the employees, saying that she didn't know that no one believed her, as the chairman of the trade union was a bit derelict in her duties, and she was criticized by name when the factory held a meeting, and now she is very low-key in the factory, and she doesn't trouble me anymore." ”
This is good news, Lin Xiaohuan couldn't help laughing.
"Dong Biao and Huang Hai were both publicly announced and punished in the factory, so everyone in the town also knew about it, Huang Cui is now a person with her tail between her legs, and she is in a hurry every day, and she is afraid of meeting someone to talk to on the way to and from work." Liu Qiang also briefly talked about Huang Cui's situation.
Thinking that Huang Cui had changed from the original high-spirited appearance to the now timid little deflated three, Lin Xiaohuan smiled even more happily.
Uh-huh, she's the little woman who has a grudge now, and then finds a way to return it, what's wrong!
As the sun rises and sets, time passes slowly, and in early August, the first fermentation of the previously made wine is over, and it is time to filter.
Early in the morning, Lin Xiaohuan called Lin Dazhu and Lin Lili for help, and the three of them moved all the wine jars to the door.
Lin Lili looked at the stool next to her, on which there were some things prepared by Xiao Huan, and said with a worried expression: "Xiao Huan, you really want me to help, I'm afraid I won't, what if I spoil the wine?" ”
"Don't worry, it's very simple, you follow me, as long as you have patience." Lin Xiaohuan smiled and continued, and after speaking, he sat on the stool and started work.
Lin Lili immediately concentrated, staring at her movements with both eyes, only to see that she first took a large piece of gauze and put it on the mouth of the big wine jar, pressed down a little in the middle, and then took a wine spoon and scooped a spoonful of wine out of the wine jar containing the wine, poured it on the gauze and filtered it.
After repeating this a few times, the gauze is stained with filtered flesh and seeds.
"Look, it's as simple as that, it's been a long time, and my hands are a little sore." Lin Xiaohuan was halfway there, and then stopped to laugh with Lin Lili.
The surrounding air was full of the aroma of wine, sweet and intoxicating, Lin Lili couldn't help but lean closer to the mouth of the altar and muttered, "I really want to drink." ”
"Hehe, wait two more weeks, you'll want to drink more." Lin Xiaohuan smiled, then got up and said with a smile: "Hurry up now, it's your turn, my arm is sore." ”
Lin Lili swallowed her saliva, sat down obediently, followed Lin Xiaohuan's appearance, and carefully filtered, perhaps tempted by the aroma of wine, or because of the first attempt, she did not feel tired at all, but was very excited, the more skilled she was, and the faster she moved.
The two sisters took turns straining until late afternoon, when they had finished straining all the wine.
Lin Xiaohuan found Lin Dazhu again, moved the wine back to the house, and waited for two weeks before drinking.
