58. New home

Some people in the village envy Grandma Zhao, saying that Xiaoling's child was not supported in vain, it was much better than raising her own son, and she could get a good job if she had a good income, and she also took Grandma Zhao to enjoy happiness.

There are also those who sneer at it and are not optimistic or jealous, saying that a peasant woman left the land, left the home where she had lived for most of her life, and sold her only nest to live in the county with a child she adopted.

Zhao Shufen watched Zhao Xiaoling and them leave in the crowd with resentment, she didn't understand why Zhao Xiaoling suddenly seemed to be a different person, why she suddenly turned her face to her friend from childhood to adulthood, all along, she had hidden her jealousy of Zhao Xiaoling very well!

She was not convinced, from childhood to adulthood, Zhao Xiaoling had nothing, food and clothing were not as good as her, she had no parents, and she was often bullied by Liu Guihua, but now she went to work in the county.

She also wants to go to the county seat to live, she doesn't want to be trapped here for the rest of her life, she wants to divorce Changsheng.

Grandma Zhao's fields were given to her son Zhao Yuxiang's family to plant, these lands were also reclaimed by the ancestors, people don't live here anymore, and the fields can't be planted anymore, so they were given to their sons, although this son has no humanity, but no matter how he says, he is also his own son, and the two grandsons will marry and have children, and the population will be large, and the fields will not be enough, so they have to reclaim it, so they simply gave their own this.

Although he was carrying heavy loads, he did not have trouble descending the mountain. They soon arrived at the commune, moved everything to Wang Yuan's small truck, returned the borrowed donkey, and took the small truck to the county seat.

Grandma Zhao is very satisfied with this spacious house.

Although this house is some years old, but the structure is reasonable and generous, it looks very comfortable, the outside of the house is a smooth and clean street, unlike the village house, because it is built by the mountain, and the door is either uphill or downhill.

Four rooms, two attics, Zhao Xiaoling lived in one attic by herself, she asked her grandmother to live in another room, and her grandmother said that she didn't like to live in the attic, and it was troublesome and inconvenient to live in the attic, so she chose a room under the attic to live.

My aunt chose the room next to my mother.

The grain was placed in a room on the façade.

With their rooms furnished and pots and pans in the kitchen, the once empty house is now lively and has the air of home life.

Before leaving, Wang Yuan stuffed twenty yuan to Zhao Xiaoling.

Zhao Xiaoling pushed back and said, "Brother Wang, you have already helped me a lot, I can't repay it, how can I ask for your money again?"

Wang Yuan insisted: "Don't be polite to me, you just moved, and you still have to take care of the lives of your grandmother and your aunt, (When chatting on the road, he learned about his aunt's house.) Now you need a lot of money. ”

Zhao Xiaoling thinks about it, everything about them has just begun, there are many places where they need money, and there is food to eat, but if you want to do business, you have to have capital, and grandma still has thirty yuan in her hand, which is the money she used to sell the house, it is impossible not to leave a little for her, otherwise she will panic.

Zhao Xiaoling could only accept Wang Yuan's twenty yuan, even if she borrowed it from him, and she would return it to him when she made money in the future.

Everything was settled, everyone was hungry, but there was no firewood at home, so they had to go to the public canteen to buy a few steamed buns to eat.

After eating, Zhao Xiaoling and her aunt took her grandmother to visit the department store again, and the dazzling array of things in the clean and translucent windows of the department store made her sigh.

Crystal clear buttons, colorful candies, colorful rubber bands and head flower ropes, all kinds of beautiful flower cloth, dazzling grandma.

That's all there is to grandma, what makes grandma even more curious is that the house is actually lit with electric lights, and when you press the switch, a shiny thing will illuminate the whole house.

There is also a faucet, as soon as you twist the faucet, the water of the white flower will flow out of that pipe, and you don't need to pick it, you can use it directly at home.

Grandma Zhao knows that the life of the people in the city is good, but those good things are vague in her impression, and she doesn't know how to be good, it is nothing more than good food and fun, but now, these good things are shown in front of her one by one, she can only sigh that the people in the city will really enjoy it, and life is really comfortable. But she was terrified, although there was a lot of good here, but they didn't have the land to grow here, what if they ran out of food? Can Xiaoling say that doing business can support them?

But having come here, she didn't want to act too anxious and affect her daughter's mood, so she took it one step at a time.

Zhao Yulan's psychology is also similar to that of her mother, she now plans to give up everything in the past and live with her mother and Xiaoling, she feels that she has never felt more relaxed, before in the Tang family, she felt that even her breathing was dull and depressed, and her heart was often like pressing a big stone, and here, she could breathe freely, and her body and mind were transparent and happy.

Just for this feeling, she has to survive here.

"Xiaoling, what are we going to do business? Do what? "My aunt wants to get in touch with this matter as soon as possible.

"Auntie, don't worry, we just moved here, let's get familiar with this place first, I'm going to work tomorrow, you are more familiar with this place than grandma, you and grandma go to the nearby mountains to get some firewood first, our family can make a fire to cook and eat later, this is the most important thing."

"That's right! We have our own wheat, go and grind the wheat into flour, we can make cakes and steamed buns to eat, we also have some cornmeal, potatoes and sweet potatoes, these are enough for us to eat for more than half a year, with firewood, we can make our own food, so don't spend money to buy food. ”

Because they were so hungry after a busy day, they went to the public canteen just now to buy six steamed buns, spent six cents, six taels of food stamps, and grandma was distressed for a long time.

Zhao Xiaoling said: "Yes! There are flour grinding machines on the streets of this county, auntie, you know, on Xinhua Road. ”

My aunt nodded, "I know that place, and tomorrow my mother and I will go and grind the wheat into flour." ”

"And those cornmeals, I used to make them myself, it's very rough, I eat it in my throat, and it will be better to grind it with a machine."

Early the next morning, Zhao Xiaoling went to work, and her aunt and grandmother went to the mountains to collect firewood.

When Zhao Xiaoling went home in the afternoon, her grandmother came out of the kitchen with a smile and said, "Xiaoling is back?" It's time to wash your hands and eat. ”

Zhao Xiaoling washed her hands and went into the kitchen, where her aunt scooped up the last piece of cake from the pot, and mixed it with some vegetables, which were wild vegetables they found when they went to the mountains to collect firewood.

There is also a soup called wild vegetable soup.
