Chapter 42: A Winter Night
In the middle of the night, the stone house was cool, so cold that there was no temperature, and even the flames flickering on the side seemed to be wrapped in a layer of coldness. Outside, small white snowballs fluttered down and stopped in some inconspicuous corner......
-
Shen family
Tossing and turning, sleepless for a long time.
Jiang Yijing got up a little irritably, and small cold currents jumped in the gaps between the stone walls, carrying the winter elves, jumping and jumping all over the room.
She put on her clothes, wrapped herself in the quilt, and stepped on her shoes and went outside.
I found the location of the kerosene lamp in the dark, lit it with a fire fold like Shen Jinyun, picked up the kerosene lamp, and went to the kitchen, the sparks trembled as I walked, as if shivering in the cold wind, more like they would be extinguished at any time.
The light was not very bright, Jiang Yijing almost tripped several times, and finally arrived, carrying a few dry matches and coming back and falling to the ground, there was a "clang".
She squatted down, and just wanted to light the fire, when she thought of a few men from the Shen family, her body paused slightly, and she got up again and went to their house.
Quietly pushed open the door like a thief, and the sound of "squeak" sounded one after another.
Jiang Yijing opened a door that he could get into, and looked at the situation through the kerosene lamp. This is still the small house she came to in earnest, the room is not half the size of hers, the bed is very small, and the bed for two people is squeezed into three people.
Shen Yueze and Shen Ruiyuan slept on the floor.
The bed was originally enough, but when Du Xiaoxiao came in, he thought the bed was too small, so he moved it over and put it into his room to make a big bed, thinking of this, Jiang Yijing was really speechless, she said how she felt that she was always panicked, there was such a big piece of wood along the two beds, and no matter how much grass there was, it was useless!
Four beds became three beds, one Zhong Hongwen occupied, Shen Juncheng fell asleep with Zhong Hongwen as usual, and the remaining five of them were crammed into two beds in twos, once Shen Haoxuan slept late at night, and he couldn't get up in the morning, so Shen Jinyun asked him to sleep more, who expected that Du Xiaoxiao suddenly came back that morning, with a temper, she didn't see Shen Haoxuan, so she asked, Shen Jinyun replied truthfully.
As soon as Du Xiaoxiao heard this, her already fiery temper suddenly ignited, she picked up an axe from the outside and rushed in and slammed it towards Shen Haoxuan's position.
Fortunately, Shen Yueze hadn't gone to the field yet, and when he saw that something was wrong, he hurriedly stopped her, and there was a lot of noise. Xu is voice was a little loud, Shen Haoxuan woke up, and narrowly avoided it with his back when the axe fell, but Shen Yueze's arm was smashed heavily during the dispute, and now as long as the weather is wet and cold, it will hurt, and the family has no money, so he has been dragging it, Shen Yueze didn't say anything, and reasonable people knew that his injury was serious, but no one at home had money and no one mentioned it.
Jiang Yijing even found out the reason for that anger from his memory, but he lost money in gambling and was ridiculed by Yu Nianyou, which angered them.
Jiang Yijing sighed, she took off the quilt wrapped around herself and gently put it on the three people on the bed, then turned back and pulled out the quilt spread on the straw and put it on the two sleeping people on the ground.
Her quilt is very large, maybe two quilts are combined, and now it seems to be just right to cover two layers.
Jiang Yijing turned around and went to the front hall with the kerosene lamp again, squatted and began to light the fire, but the wood couldn't burn, Jiang Yijing threw it away a little irritably, and when she was sitting on the ground and was about to sulk, a heavy piece of clothing fell on her body, and then a bony hand with hay stretched out to the kerosene lamp next to her, and then piled the wood into sharp corners, the fire was huge, and the scorching temperature wrapped the wood, burning more and more.
