Chapter 31: Departure

The night in the countryside is quiet, and in the winter the night in the countryside is even quieter.

Here, there is no noise of cars coming and going, no noisy and rich nightlife, only pure nature.

In the winter night, the noisy insect chirping on weekdays also quieted down, only a crescent moon hung quietly above the vast starry sky outside the window, and the white moonlight passed through the bright glass window and sprinkled on Zhao Ming who was sitting on the bed, revealing a faint holiness.

When he was working at GH, Zhao Ming liked to sleep very lazy, and there were always a few days a month when he was late, but when he returned home, Zhao Ming got up early every day and his sleep quality was much better.

Early the next morning, Zhao Ming woke up early and got up neatly to wash.

Every day when Zhao Ming gets up, his mother has gone out early to wash clothes.

"How many faith coins have I earned in the past two days, open it and see!" Zhao Ming has been live streaming for the past two days, and he didn't see how many faith coins he earned, so he took out his mobile phone to check it as soon as he finished washing.

"Thirty-six o'clock, this is too dark, isn't it!" Zhao Ming looked at the lonely double-digit account and couldn't help but complain in his heart.

"When will it take to pay off the debt of the black-hearted little Lori!" Zhao Ming looked a little bitter when he thought of the usury of the little Lori.

"Forget it, I don't want to! I can only pay it back slowly!" Zhao Ming comforted himself in his heart, and then put away his mobile phone.

Putting away his phone, Zhao Ming began to make breakfast.

Make breakfast, the time is almost half past six, Li Huaizu has already gotten up and is washing, the third sister is still the same every day, she won't get up if she doesn't call, and Hu Yu hasn't gotten up yet.

Seeing that the two hadn't gotten up yet, Zhao Ming went to call the third sister to get up first, and then went to call Hu Yu.

Back in the kitchen, my mother had finished drying her clothes and walked in with a red plastic bucket for clothes.

"Brother, you will wake me up early every day when you come, and you won't give me a lazy sleep if you want to!" The third sister who had just gotten up also arrived in the kitchen, rubbing her eyes and yawning, and immediately began to complain when she saw Zhao Ming.

"How old are you!You're about to get married, and you still sleep lazy every day, are you ugly!" Zhao Ming heard the third sister's complaint and said to the third sister with a smile.

"What's wrong with getting married soon? Don't you sleep lazy when you're about to get married?"

“......”

"You can also bully Fu Bo!" Zhao Ming looked at the third sister and scolded with a smile.

The Fu Bo mentioned by Zhao Ming, that is, the boyfriend of the third sister, was still at the third sister's house during the Chinese New Year last year, and Zhao Ming also knew him, and he was relatively honest.

"It's his honor that I can bully him!Besides, I don't bully him, who bullies him!" The third sister listened to Zhao Ming's words, and said to Zhao Ming with an arrogant face.

“......”

"Hurry up and wash your face!" Zhao Ming looked at the tsundere third sister and hurriedly rushed her to wash her face.

As soon as the third sister went to wash her face, Hu Yu, who was sleepy-eyed, also got up, like Zhao Ming walked over.

"Ming Shao, where do you wash?" Hu Yu asked Zhao Ming when he saw Zhao Ming.

"It's in the bathroom, there's a new toothbrush that my mother bought for you yesterday! But wait, my third sister just went!" Zhao Ming's house installed two large solar water heaters, and the sun was big yesterday, so the solar water heater can still supply hot water.

Of course, solar water heaters are also poverty alleviation projects, and every year during the Chinese New Year, there are more people in Zhao Ming's family, so when solar energy was installed, Zhao Ming's family installed two big ones at one time. Since solar energy belongs to home appliances to the countryside, there are also poverty alleviation policies, so Zhao Ming's family did not spend much money to install two big ones at a time.

Although the breakfast in the morning was simple, it was still quite appetizing, and the five of them ate very happily, and ate the breakfast cooked by Zhao Ming cleanly.

"Wait a minute, let's catch chickens!" After breakfast, Zhao Ming said to Li Huaizu and Hu Yu.

"Third sister, do you want to go together?" After saying to Li Huaizu and them, Zhao Ming turned his head and asked the third sister next to him.

"Where are we going to catch chickens, it's not far away?" Hearing Zhao Ming say to catch chickens, Hu Yu hurriedly asked.

"Brother, I'm going too!" The third sister heard Zhao Ming ask, so she returned to Zhao Ming.

"Good!"

"It's not very far, it's only about twenty minutes to walk! I'll go prepare a few bags first!" Zhao Ming finished saying to the three, turned around and walked up the stairs.

After a while, Zhao Ming took two snakeskin bags downstairs, and then found a knife and made a few holes on both sides of the two snakeskin bags.

"Ming Shao, why are you buttoning a few holes in the snakeskin bag?" Seeing Zhao Ming digging holes in the snakeskin bag, Hu Yu stretched out his head and was very curious.

"Ming Shao is digging holes in the snakeskin bag, and when the chicken is loaded underneath, the chicken head will leak out, right?" Li Huaizu asked when he heard Hu Yu's question.

"Yes, leak the head of the chicken out of the bag, so that the chicken will not be stuffy in the bag, otherwise when you go home, you will suffocate the chicken when you take it out!" Zhao Ming replied to Hu Yu while continuing to cut the hole.

"Children in the city are just different!" the third sister immediately said with a smile when she heard Hu Yu's question.

"......" Hu Yu looked at the third sister who was still smiling, and was speechless.

Although he was very depressed, Hu Yu was not easy to refute, after all, he asked such a funny question: "I dug the pit myself, and I have to jump into it with tears!"

"You girl!" Hearing the third sister Geng Hu Yu, Zhao Ming also glared at the third sister.

At this time, my mother came over.

"Son, wait a minute, you go to your father-in-law's house and bring that big grass carp over!"

"Okay, then I'll find a bag and wait for the fish to be brought over!" Zhao Ming heard his mother's words, turned around and went upstairs again.

Going up to the utility room on the second floor, Zhao Ming rummaged through the corner where snakeskin bags were stored at home.

Because Zhao Ming's family often has to load food, there are a lot of snakeskin bags stored in Zhao Ming's house, hundreds of large and small, all of which are stacked in a corner of the utility room, and Zhao Ming's mother is all washed and clean, and they are neatly stacked one by one.

Zhao Ming rummaged for a while, and finally found a bag of rice, the bags in the corner were stacked neatly again, Zhao Ming picked up the rice bag and went downstairs.

With the bag in hand, Zhao Ming came to the edge of the pool, where there were still two grass carp and a few carp. Although it was relatively cold at night, none of the fish in the pool died!

Zhao Ming picked a larger grass carp, about eight or nine catties, put it into the bag in his hand, and then caught two larger carp, and then put it in the bag.

After catching the fish, there is only one grass carp and three carp left in the pool.

At six o'clock in the morning, there was no fog in the sky, and at seven o'clock, the sky outside was shrouded in a white expanse, and the visibility outside was very low.

Carrying the fish, Zhao Ming walked to the fire pit room, it was still relatively cold in the morning, and his mother and they were all roasting in the fire pit room. Just finished catching the fish, Zhao Ming's hands were full of water, Zhao Ming immediately put the bag containing the fish on the ground, and reached out to the fire to roast it.

"Then let's go?" baked his hands a little warmer, Zhao Ming said to the three of them.

"Mom, do you want to go with you?" Then, Zhao Ming asked his mother again.

"I'm not going, your father-in-law said yesterday that his family made a little tempeh, and asked you to get some of it!"

"My father-in-law's family made tempeh, then I'm going to get some of it!" Zhao Ming heard his mother say that his father-in-law's family made tempeh, and immediately said happily.

When he was a child, his father-in-law often made his own tempeh and fried tempeh with some sharp peppers, which was Zhao Ming's favorite.

The tempeh bought in the market is not as delicious as the one made by his father-in-law, and since he went out to work, Zhao Ming has never eaten the tempeh made by his father-in-law.

"Ming Shao, shall we go by car?" Li Huaizu stood up and said to Zhao Ming.

"It's a lot of fog outside, I can't see the road when I drive, so don't drive, it's not far anyway, just walk for more than 20 minutes!" Zhao Ming heard Li Huaizu say that he wanted to drive, so he hurriedly said to Li Huaizu.

"It's foggy outside? Okay then! Let's go over there!"

"Okay, let's go!" After speaking, Zhao Ming also stood up.

Zhao Ming carried a bag of fish, Li Huaizu helped hold two bags of chicken, and a group of four people went out.
