Chapter 14: Moving
In the sound of firecrackers with the sound of "crackling, crackling......", Huang Lele's family entered the new house!
Today, my father asked my brother, second sister, and third sister to take leave to come back, because there are many guests, and now the family is so busy that their feet don't touch the ground!
Lan Ying invited all her relatives, friends, and neighbors who had helped their family. A flowing water feast was set up in the backyard. The tables, dishes and chopsticks were all borrowed from the neighbors, and the aunts, aunts, and uncles also took the initiative to come over early in the morning to help cook and eat. The staple food was made by my mother, and some of them came over to help prepare it the night before, and the side dishes were fried by everyone. It's everyone's specialty!
In their village, whoever does any happy event, everyone also habitually helps each other, helps wash dishes and vegetables, clean up dishes and chopsticks, serve dishes or something...... If someone else lacks something, he will take it from his own house and add it to it. Powerful output, material output. There are almost no people like her grandmother and aunt!
Today's weather is very sunny and cool, and it is very warm to eat and drink in the sun.
It's just that you have a good life, although grandma and aunt also came over to eat a running water feast, but they don't do anything, one holds a big child, and regardless of the dispute between the two younger brothers, they hold the child and look at it coldly. The eldest uncle was enthusiastic and entertained everyone with his father.
Finally able to live in a new house! The new house is good! The home is spacious enough, everyone has a room, not to mention, and there is more bathroom that she is most satisfied with! In the past, when she went to the homes of her classmates in the same countryside, she usually didn't stay at night, just because there was no toilet at home, not to mention, there was only one toilet in the whole village, which was still very simple: there were only four low walls, and the roof was blue sky! If it rains, you have to wear a bamboo shell hat to protect yourself from the rain to go to the toilet! That's why she cares so much if there is a toilet, it's really important to her!
Besides, their family originally had three rooms, one for their parents, one for their grandfather, and one for their sisters. And the house is still small, it's really crowded!
Well, now everyone has a room, although nothing furnished, at least everyone has their own bed! A desk and a wooden box for clothes needed a lot of wood to make a wardrobe, so my grandfather made a wooden box for each of them. She and her grandfather fought for a long time for the remaining scraps, and her grandfather got her a small vertical bookcase! My grandfather also carved the door of the bookcase! Lele thought: The carving is very beautiful, but the dust will stain the book! When the family had money, she hired someone to make glass outside, so that the carved door would not be destroyed.
Because of this new bookcase, she moved from the bookcase to the room next to her, saying it was the study! She began to ink with her mother, and she had to move her mother's books to her bookcase.
also said that she lived on the third floor, and there was an empty room as a study, how could there be no books in it? Besides, isn't it damp on it? That way the book can be better preserved! Mom lives on the first floor, it's too damp, besides, they've all read books, what's so strange. Good books should be in the best place to be best preserved! It can also allow more people to read them, so as to reflect the value of the book. In the end, Lan Ying couldn't stand it anymore, so she asked her to carry the book upstairs!
In her previous life, she only knew how to play, and like today, she was afraid that she was still running around with the Xiaomei sisters and Xiaoyu sisters next door! How can you stay at home and help out so honestly?
But in this life, as soon as she could walk, she kept running behind her brother, and her brother would never leave her behind. When I followed my brother, I was all watching the boys play, and no one would take my sister to play like my brother! When her brother went to school, the person she followed became her own mother! And her mother is a little different from other village women: she takes her all day long to either go to the doctor or go up the mountain to dig herbs! No little girl would do such a thing! So, she basically doesn't have time to play with those little girls!
It's just that their children have one trait: they are rare among their peers! Even if they don't have much time to play, those children of the same age will involuntarily come closer! They don't do their own things, they will come to Lelejia to help, so the children in the village can't find it for a while, as long as they go to Lelejia, they will be able to find it.
For this reason, Lan Ying is happy to pull back the peanuts and corn when she harvests peanuts and gives them to the children to pick at home! If the three sisters are also at home, there will be a few more girls in the field to help with the rice planting! This is so easy for the Lele family!
During the summer vacation this year, my sisters went to the field with my mother to plant rice, and two or three sisters from the neighborhood went to the field to help. The rice noodles in the processing workshop are made by Lele and a few little sisters, they are small, so naturally they can't make so much, at least they can't let the machine be empty. In the evening, when those friends go home, Lele will always give each of them two or three catties of rice noodles to take home, and their families will not say anything more. After all, this is also paid labor. At night, my mother had to continue processing with her sisters, otherwise the rice noodles would not be enough to be shipped.
Today, Lele's family entered the new house, and she invited all those children to her, and Lele also specially let these children sit at a table and entertain them for dinner. The parents of those children are also simple and kind villagers, and they always say that those children don't need to serve the table, and let the table be eaten by the adults......
At this time, the people in the village were really simple, and not many people would be jealous of other people's families or anything. What they care about is who does the most for the village and whose prestige is high! Lan Ying's family was the first to build a building in the village, and you are also beautiful, so naturally some people want to gossip. But the villagers, who doesn't have a headache and brain fever, who hasn't invited Lan Ying to see a doctor for their family? If she doesn't have any money, Lan Ying said that she owes it, and she will give it when she has it. But I never asked them for money! I owe them a lot of affection to their families. So Lan Ying's family sent it, and everyone was just happy for their family, and no one went out of their way to make it difficult to say anything unpleasant.
Among the guests, some money from the family came, and they gave a red envelope. If you don't have money, you can bring a few catties of your own rice, and you can see if you can help...... Huang Lele watched the flow of people, but he was afraid that everyone in the village would come to their new house! Rural people are really simple, which family has some prestige, if there is a happy event in the family, if they don't celebrate, they will feel that they are disrespecting the family, and even if they come, they will do their best to send the best things in their own family.
This flowing water feast, but it was eaten until late at night, and it was over! Originally, my mother asked those aunts and aunts who came to help go home first, and they would be cleaning up the dishes and chopsticks tomorrow. As a result, they spontaneously said that their home has well water, which is convenient! I cleaned it up before I went back.
Huang Lele lay on his big bed and fell asleep beautifully......
When the bright morning light woke her up, she suddenly found that their house was missing curtains! It's not so nice to live on the third floor!
Later, I have to tell my mother that when she goes to the city one day, she will ask her mother to help buy cloth and come back to make curtains! In other words, their county seat is farther than they go to the city! You have to go through L City to get to the county seat. So they bought a lot of things in the city in addition to buying them in the town.
She thought: If she buys cloth for her mother, she may buy back a large piece of flower cloth, and then use the rest to make clothes for her! Even if she doesn't pick clothes to wear, don't give her a big flower cloth! Besides, after the beginning of spring, she will also go to elementary school in the town. Now when Dad goes on a business trip to a big city in another place, he will buy her a dress, a skirt or something. Although she still wears the leftover clothes of her sisters in the village, when she goes out, she still changes into beautiful clothes.
I finally found an opportunity to tell my mother:
"Mom, the glass windows at home are too good for light transmission, and the room is very bright, so people can't have a good rest!"
"That's good, I can go to bed early and get up early! Save you from sleeping lazily and not waking up. ”
"Mom, they're children! If you don't sleep enough, you won't grow tall! ”
"And what do you want?"
"Curtains! I want beautiful curtains! Mother! You see our house is beautiful now, right? ”
"Well, pretty. And then what? ”
"You say, such a beautiful house, there is not even a curtain, how incongruous?"
"No, I'll be fine with it."
"Where is it, such beautiful windows are bare, not good at all! If you make a beautiful curtain like a gauze, then it is called beautiful! ”
"Speaking of which, that's why you want to buy such curtains, right?"
"Yes! Oh, yes! Lele knows that mom is the best! Lele hugged Lan Ying's face and 'poofed' one.
"You girl, you know how to be coquettish! In the past two days, my mother has sent fans to the city, and if you still have time, I will give you a look. Not? Well, tomorrow you will go to the city with your mother? ”
"Yay! Mom, let's go a little early tomorrow, shall we? This way you can go around for a little longer! ”
"It depends on when Uncle Lin will come tomorrow, we don't count. Now hurry up and do something! After we are done, we will measure the windows again, so that we know how much curtain cloth we need to buy and come back to make curtains! ”
"Okay!" Thinking that he could go to the city tomorrow, Huang Lele happily went to do things.
While doing things, I thought: At this age in my previous life, my mother always cut her watermelon head, because she was small, she couldn't tie braids, and she didn't have time to tie braids, so it was convenient to cut watermelon heads! Just comb it casually, she herself was as dark as an African at that time because she was exposed to the sun all day long. I don't care about how the hair is cut. Now she is busy, busy making money, how can she have time to wander around all day to expose to the sun! The natural skin is much fairer than the skin of the sisters who often go to the ground with their mothers! When she was more than three years old, she didn't let her mother help her cut her hair, saying that she could tie her hair. Tie yourself two maid buns every day, which is easy to comb and convenient.
On this day, Lele overheard the villagers say:
"Lele, this girl, looks as beautiful as her little aunt who was given away!"
"Isn't it? That girl is the most beautiful child in our village! ”
"It's a pity, I heard that the family treated her very well, but the baby was not blessed......"
"That's right, he looks so smart, but he's a blessed child......"
“……”
“……”
Lele went home and asked her mother, only to know that at that time, her father's family was poor, and her little uncle was sick and had no money to treat him. I heard that the family was very good to the little aunt, but a few years later, the little aunt didn't know what the disease was and died.
Should she lament that her little aunt is so disgraceful?
