Chapter Twenty-Four: My Grandfather Calls You for Breakfast

Qi Yougui knew that house, and he was a little reluctant, "Those two houses are really dilapidated, and they are on the edge of the village, and the old/second with a granddaughter live in the wrong place, which is always not very convenient." ”

said, turned his head and complained about Qi Younian: "Tell me about you, you are old and old, and you are still that stubborn." We are brothers, why can't we live with our own brothers? If you have to come out and find a house to live in, how can there be such a ready-made house for you? If you look at it, you can see that the house can't be inhabited at all. ”

The three of them were still followed by Ye Xinyan and Mama Jin, if the house was good, they would have to clean up, so the two naturally followed.

Hearing He Quantai and Qi Yougui talking, Ye Xinyan had already made up his mind, no matter how dilapidated the house was, they would also live here. It's better than sharing a yard with the landlord, which is not only inconvenient, but when they do business or something, they encounter a lot of things, and they are afraid that they will be harassed to death.

When I got to the ground, it was no wonder that the original residents had another house and abandoned this place directly. Not to mention the dilapidation of these two adobe houses, the main reason is that they are not in a good location, they are not next to each other, and they are lonely in the northwest corner of the village. A large open space behind the house, which looked gritty and uncultivated, looked very desolate.

Qi You looked at it before and after, and it was better than he imagined. There are two south-facing adobe houses, with a small kang connected to the stove in the outer room, and a slightly larger kang in the inner room. It just so happened that Ye Zi and Mama Jin lived in the inner room, and he lived in the small kang outside.

In the courtyard against the wall, there is also the outline of a shed, which can be re-trimmed and the roof erected to make a livestock shed. The courtyard is surrounded by a fence, and although it is a little dilapidated and there are gaps, it is not difficult to repair.

Along the way, they really couldn't find a place to stay, and they also slept under the eaves of other people's houses, and there was a place to shelter from the wind and rain, which was already very good.

Thinking of this, Qi Younian ignored Qi Yougui's repeated objections, nodded directly, and decided to live here. At most, he will spend some effort and repair it well.

Ye Xinyan saw Qi Younian nodding directly, and she was also happy in her heart. This recognized grandfather is worthy of being the boss of a local snake, and he never hesitates when he encounters problems, and makes a decision immediately after thinking about it.

The matter will be settled, and a few people will return to Qi Yougui's house.

Ye Xinyan asked Qi Younian to rest at his uncle's house and talk to his uncle and uncle. She and Mama Jin led the donkey cart, and the two cousins of the uncle's family went back to the abandoned yard to clean up.

The matter of Qi Younian and the three of them settling in Qinghe Village still needs to be discussed with He Quantai. Therefore, Qi Younian did not fight with Ye Xinyan, and asked the two nephews to help Ye Xinyan and Mama Jin clean up the house. He himself stayed, and finalized the household registration of the three of them in Qinghe Village with his eldest brother and He Quantai.

After discussing the matter, Qi Younian didn't go back, and went to the field with Qi Yougui to do work and chatter. Now is the busy season of farming, because when I come back, I have delayed the two brothers for most of the day, and it is even worse to let people sit with them.

Qi Younian wanted not to delay the farm work of the two brothers, while the Wang family and the Song family were more worried about whether Qi Younian would have the heart to divide the family property, and asked for it while they were doing work in the field. The two also locked the door and followed them to the field.

Ye Xinyan and Mama Jin wrapped their hair with a handkerchief, and with the help of Qi Cheng and Qi Ercheng, it took half a day to sort out the two rooms.

As for the yard and the shed where the cattle could be bolted, they had to be left and slowly picked up.

Seeing that it was not early, Ye Xinyan didn't have any belongings now, so she could only pour two bowls of water, thanked Qi Chengge and the two, and said that she would settle down at home, and then invite them to come over as guests, and let the two go back to help finish the work in the field.

Ye Xinyan's things were simple, they cleaned up the room, and the luggage, clothes and some simple utensils carried on the donkey cart were organized in the room, which was a preliminary home.

Do all these things well, the sun is already in the west.

Qi Sanshun, who was seven or eight years old from Qi Yougui's family, ran over and said that his grandmother asked Ye Xinyan and the two to go to Qi's house for dinner.

Ye Xinyan looked at the pot used on the road and saw that the pot had been propped up, and even the water in the pot was boiling, so she said to Sanshun with a smile: "Sanshun went back and told Grandmother that the paste we have here is about to be ready, so let's go, just let the second uncle and grandfather eat it at your place." ”

Sanshun looked at the strange pot stove at the second grandfather's house suspiciously, and went back to pass the word.

When Qi Younian returned, it was already dark. He took advantage of the light of dusk to look inside and out, and said with a smile: "It's not bad." It's just that the doors and windows won't work, so I'll find some wood to repair tomorrow, and I'll make do with it today. ”

After speaking, he restrained his smile and sighed, "It is said that we have just come back, so we can borrow it for a few days at your uncle's grandfather's house." It's just that I think my two nieces and daughters-in-law seem to have some different minds, and if they live there, they are afraid of causing some disputes and disharmony. Alas, I have wronged you. ”

Ye Xinyan grabbed Qi Younian's arm and walked into the room, she smiled: "What did grandpa say?" People say that the golden nest and the silver nest are not as good as their own grass nest. This is our own home, of course, it is more comfortable and comfortable to live in our own home. ”

Then I remembered what Qi Younian said about repairing doors and windows, "Isn't grandpa a mason?" Do you also repair doors and windows? Otherwise, we'd better hire a carpenter to do it. ”

Ye Xinyan really planned, how to say that there is still some silver at home, and you can find a carpenter to repair the doors and windows.

Qi Younian said with a smile: "Back then, many of us worked together, and we have seen a lot, even if we are not proficient in carpentry, it is still okay to repair it roughly." ”

Ye Xinyan said with a smile: "Then it's good to dare to save a lot of money." I'll help you then, and we'll do it together. ”

Mama Jin smiled on the side and said, "You are a little girl, what can you do, just don't make a mess." ”

Mama Jin is also happy to be able to live in her own home, and after nearly half a year of turbulent displacement, this time she can really settle down. Although the house and yard are dilapidated, the result is better than not having a household registration and sleeping on the streets. Speaking of which, they really had a few experiences of sleeping on the streets along the way.

The three of them gossiped a few words, rested early, and slept peacefully.

There was nothing to say all night, and early the next morning, Qi Younian got up, although he tried his best to slow down his movements, Ye Xinyan still heard the movement and followed Mama Jin up.

After washing, feeding the donkeys fodder, the sun is just showing its head.

Mama Jin went to cook breakfast, Ye Xinyan and Qi Younian discussed: "Grandpa, let's not repair the doors and windows today, leave Mama to clean up the yard at home, and I will go into the town with you to buy some things for urgent use at home." ”

All they have now is the small pot and three sets of chopsticks. That small pot can't even fit the stove of the big stove in the room. There are also washbasins, foot basins, cooking panels, water tanks, buckets, pots and pans, all of which have to be repurchased.

Qi Younian thinks about it, it is better to live a tight life, and the doors and windows can make do for half a day.

As soon as the three of them started to drink vegetable batter, Sanshun came running, and as soon as they entered the yard, they shouted: "Second grandfather, my grandfather called you and your cousin home for breakfast." The words fell, and Sanshun's people also entered the house.
