At night, in the bedroom of the new house, the oil lamp is still on.

The big long fire kang is covered with bamboo mats and felt stalls, and the upper layer is also covered with this brand new thick wool mattress and wool quilt, and there are 'sheets' on the mattress, and the quilt is also covered with this layer of quilt cover, which is brand new.

The fire is warm, and the bed is warmer.

After getting off the kang, in front of the window, there is a long table with high legs, which can be used to place some things, and the high clothes cabinets on both sides, the large boxes on the kneeling floor, the dressing table, and the shelves are full. Even the ground has been compacted. Above the head, thick and solid wooden beams, solid tiled roofs.

Shelter from the wind and rain and snow, no matter how heavy the wind and rain and snow are, it can't crush it, but thatched huts cannot.

In order to live well, Zhang Weidong not only spent a lot of money to buy wood, stones, and tiles, but also used white flour steamed buns, vegetable and rice porridge to eat all-you-can-eat when entertaining the craftsmen, and occasionally had a meal of braised pork, and the salary was not low. This is the life of a landlord. Compared with the gruel boiled with rice bran, chestnut rice, and wild vegetables, there is a hungry stomach, one in the sky and one in the ground.

Looking at Xiao Yueyue who was sleeping, Xu Qing felt sad, a woman dragging this small oil bottle has had a very difficult time in the past few years.

She couldn't fall asleep for a while, and kept watching the next door. However, more than an hour later, there was still a snoring from there, but nothing happened to her fear.

She suddenly remembered that Zhang Weidong was lying in his clothes and drank so much wine, don't get sick.

So, she got off the kang, hesitated, didn't take the oil lamp, only wore this underwear and quietly went to the middle room.

A soft snoring sound in the darkness.

Xu Qing hesitated again before touching the kang. touched Zhang Weidong's body, and the thick clothes were still on his body, it was too hot.

Thereupon. She gritted her teeth and took off Zhang Weidong's clothes.

Thin cotton pants, thick cotton pants, thin cotton jacket, thick cotton clothes, several times the widow's clear hand touched the man's body skin, but she didn't expect the seemingly thin body to be so strong, which made her face burn badly. Rapid heartbeat.

Finally helped him take it off, Xu Qing took off the quilt and wanted to cover him, but the result was at this moment. A strong arm wrapped around her, rolled over and pressed underneath, and tore her clothes and belly pocket violently and violently.

"I'm sorry!"

"Brother Zhang-" Xu Qing exclaimed, and then his mouth was sealed

Early the next morning. When the rooster in the village crows. Zhang Weidong woke up and was refreshed.

The kang still had residual warmth, but there was an extra woman in the bed, with her back to him, shrinking into his arms, honest with each other. The woman's body is a little thin, but her breasts are full, and then look at the woman's side face. It's a little more beautiful and charming. The woman's eyelashes move slightly, and her breathing thickens. He seems to be awake, but he is pretending to be asleep.

Holding his forehead, Zhang Weidong sighed slightly.

Mortals, mortals!

Xiao Yueyue next door cried, Xu Qing's little lady couldn't pretend anymore, she woke up quickly, didn't care about Zhang Weidong beside her, hurriedly put on her underwear with her back to him, got off the kang without saying a word, and hurried over to coax her daughter.

After such a stir, it was still hazy outside, but Zhang Weidong couldn't sleep, so he simply dressed and went to the ground and lit the oil lamp in the middle room.

As soon as the house was lit up, he went over to see the stove in the kitchen, and there was still a little spark left, so he added some coal, and added water to the big iron pot, and it began to burn.

After washing briefly with cold water, Zhang Weidong thought for a while, walked to the door of the aisle, and said: "If you don't object, from today onwards, your mother and daughter will move over and live, and I will provide for you, so that Xiao Yueyue will grow up smoothly and healthily, as for the ceremony, please witness it from your neighbors!"

After calming down, Zhang Weidong was smiling bitterly, but since it happened, he would be responsible. Considering Xu Qing's reputation, the testimony of the neighbors was necessary.

Besides, he has become a mortal, his desire and hope have been reawakened, life has to go on, and it is good to have a woman by his side.

“――”

didn't wait for the answer, Zhang Weidong didn't care, opened the door valve, pushed the door out.

A hint of coldness is blowing on the face, accompanied by pieces of coldness, and the sky and the earth are gray, and it is impossible to distinguish between far and near.

"It's snowing!"

The snow was still falling, and the snowflakes were falling in large flakes, and the yard was already half a foot thick. It is no wonder that the heavy snow covers the mountains, and Huangsha Town is isolated from the world. Depending on the situation, it is very likely that a heavy snowfall will fall a foot thick.

"Fortunately, I got up early!" Zhang Weidong was glad to go, went back to the house and went to a big dustpan, shoveled snow in the yard, and then went back to the house and poured it into the vat. Once the snowflakes melt, they become pure drinking water, much cleaner than the water in the river.

On several trips to the town, he bought more than a dozen vats and hired a lot of mules and wagons to transport them back. Some of them can store snow water, so you don't have to go to the river to fetch water on snowy days.

By dawn, the snow had stopped, and Zhang Weidong swept out the yard and piled it up in a corner. I cleared the snow from a dirt road at the entrance for a while.

"Wow, it's snowing!"

"It's so big, it's a foot thick!"

The sound of Zhao Lanlan and Goudan came from Zhao Erbao's house, and Zhao Tiedan next door also went out and was clearing the snow. Both families lived in thatched huts, but they seemed to be okay and not crushed.

After feeding the mules grain and forage, when he heard a noise in the house, Zhang Weidong turned around and went back to the house, where the little lady Xu Qing was pouring hot water into a large wooden bucket in the kitchen. This was specially bought by Zhang Weidong for bathing. As soon as he came in, Xu Qing's little lady suddenly panicked, but she still managed to complete the matter of adding water.

Zhang Weidong smiled and said: "You wash it first, it will be a family in the future, don't be restrained! By the way, you can watch and cook breakfast for a while, put more rice, and then put some pickled wild vegetables, if the wild vegetables are not enough, go back and take some chestnut rice and exchange some with Brother Zhao and Brother Tiedan's house——"

"In the future, breakfast should be lighter, vegetable rice porridge is good, lunch should be hearty, steamed buns, white rice, vegetable stew, bone broth or egg soup, you can eat noodles for dinner, make some noodles, and the last point, the portion should be sufficient, my meal is relatively large, and it doesn't matter if I have left." ”

"En!" Xu Qing finally responded.

"You don't have to go to Brother Zhao's house to change the pickled wild vegetables. I've got quite a few over there, and I've got some stuff to bring over—"

Xu Qing seems to have accepted his fate and plans to move in. His tone trembled slightly, but his face turned red.

"It's fine. The water is getting cold, I went to Brother Zhao's house to have a look, oh, I almost forgot, there is a set of women's cotton clothes in the coat box on the kang. A set of small ones, which were originally intended to be given to you, are also available at Brother Zhao and Brother Tiedan's house. You and Xiao Yueyue can wear it, and there will be some cotton cloth and linen cloth, and you can find a way to make some coats for you and the like-"

Zhang Weidong's departure made Xu Qing breathe a sigh of relief. After going out and lowering the gate valve. Then he entered the kitchen and stepped into the large wooden barrel.

She doesn't hate Zhang Weidong for being strong, this is a woman's life, she always has to rely on a man, and this man is much stronger than her. The family is wealthy, and they are willing to let their mother and daughter eat well, dress warmly, and Zhang Weidong treats them very well, what is she not satisfied with?

After cleaning, Xu Qing hesitated and opened the large wooden box in the corner of the kang. One of them was full of cotton cloth and linen, and there were a lot of them. The other has a set of women's cotton clothes in it, and a set of small ones, but the small ones are also bigger than Xiao Yueyue's body, and they can be worn for several years. There are also some needles and threads, scissors, etc., all of which are complete.

Got rid of the hemp pants full of patches, the thin torn cotton jacket and cotton pants, and replaced them with new cotton jackets and cotton pants, which was much warmer in the end. However, the shabby cotton jacket and cotton pants were also solemnly put away, and the cotton in them was also used for other clothes. turned out Xiao Yueyue's brand-new cotton jacket and cotton pants and replaced them.

After doing all this, Xu Qing went to make breakfast

Zhao Erbao's family of four was shoveling and clearing snow in the yard, and even the snow on the thatched house was carefully pulled down so as not to crush the roof.

In fact, in previous years, it was almost the same, and the heavy snow was overwhelming, which was worrying.

However, unlike previous years, today's family of four is in a good mood and full of energy.

saved Zhang Weidong, the family got a gift of cotton clothes and pants, a lot of meat, and hundreds of catties of chestnut rice, they have no worries this winter.

"Second uncle!" the dog cheered, excited, but he didn't dare to step forward.

"Second uncle-" Zhao Lanlan also called him so.

"Second uncle is here—" Zhao greeted him warmly.

Zhang Weidong nodded with a smile.

This title was changed after drinking last night to show closeness, and Zhao Erbao's family was still very happy about it. However, the Zhao family is still a little resentful, and originally planned to marry their daughter Zhao Lanlan to Zhang Weidong, but now there is no hope at all.

Zhao Erbao said with a smile: "Brother Zhang, get up so early, let's eat here in a while, it's troublesome for you to go back and do it alone!"

Zhang Weidong smiled awkwardly and said, "Brother Zhao, for such a matter, I fell in love with Xu Qing's little lady at first sight, and I plan to marry her." Mrs. Xu is there with me at this time, and she agreed. I plan to invite Brother Zhao's family and Brother Tiedan's family to sit down and witness it three days later. ”

Zhao Erbao's eyes widened suddenly, and he said happily: "Brother Zhang is so blessed, I can see this matter! Xu Xiaoniang was originally an outsider, handsome, and literate, and she is a good match for Brother Zhang!"

"Thank you, Brother Zhao!"

"Thank you, thank you, that's it!"

Zhang Weidong watched everyone sweep the snow aside and pile it up, and said, "Is there any use for this snow pile?"

Zhao Erbao said: "What's the use of snow, it's everywhere!"

The heavy snow here closed the mountain either in the next two games, and then melted, and it snowed here every once in a while, and even the communication between the village was greatly affected. Summer and autumn are dry, but winter and spring are constantly raining and snowing.

With such an explanation, Zhang Weidong was clear, but he still felt that it was a waste.

"Brother Zhao, how to solve this draft?" asked Zhang Weidong.

"There is a spring in the village, which flows out of the cracks in the stones, everyone goes there to fetch water, and I will take you to recognize the way when you turn around-" Zhao Erbao said.

I see!

Zhang Weidong was ashamed and no longer entangled.

Originally, I thought it was from the river to carry water, but I didn't dare to love it, and there was a rock spring in the village. These days, with the vigorous help of Zhao Erbao and Zhao Tiedan, he has never done rough work, and he has not paid attention to these details.

After staying for a while, Zhang Weidong said that he took Lan Lan and the dog over.

In the future, Lan Lan and Goudan will go to Zhang Weidong's side for dinner.

And without this burden, the pressure on Zhao Erbao and his wife will be greatly reduced, which is also one of Zhang Weidong's rewards, and he doesn't want to owe kindness, cause and effect. (To be continued......)
