Chapter 281: Did I Read It Wrong?
More than half of the houses in front of me can be described as dilapidated houses.
And I don't know what is used to support it inside, or someone has specially taken care of it and repaired it, and it looks like it can be used improvised.
Xu Ying was very worried that the Su Qiong house they were going to was also such a house, which not only leaked wind but also rain.
The most important thing is what, even if you fall asleep one day, you will never wake up.
Xu Ying pulled Gu Zhilai's hand, Gu Zhilai knew what Xu Ying was thinking as long as he glanced at it, and reached out and pinched her little hand.
There is no way, at this critical time, she will avoid the leader of the Family Planning Office, and she can only hide if she can't afford to provoke her, and when she comes here, even if she has the ability to go through the sky, she can't manage it here.
It's a time to go back to poverty overnight.
This is very similar to the time when Sansanmin Village was poor and white.
Second Uncle Shi was still driving the carriage, and a familiar person asked him along the way, and he replied one by one: "This is a relative of the Dahai family, who came to see his aunt." ”
"Sister-in-law's relatives, this is just right, they just came out of the mountains, and they haven't arrived home yet."
One man replied that he was carrying a basket full of mushrooms and fungus that had been picked up from the mountains.
"Well, thank you, I'll send this kid over." Second Uncle Shi shouted, driving the mule cart a lot faster.
Xu Ying was watching, and suddenly, she seemed to see a familiar figure.
Feeling that he was delusional, he rubbed his eyes again and looked again, but the figure was gone.
"Strange, am I mistaken?" Xu Ying muttered quietly.
"What's wrong, daughter-in-law?" Gu Zhilai asked.
"It's fine."
Maybe I've been too tired lately and have delusions, so I have to rest well when I go back.
Rushing to the door of the house, Second Uncle Shi shouted: "That's your aunt's house, hurry up and go in and have a look." ”
Gu Zhilai nodded, ran over directly, pushed open the courtyard door and said, "Auntie is here!" I'm Gu Zhilai, who I told you about on the phone! ”
The woman inside was startled and didn't hear clearly, but when she saw a strange man breaking into the door, she was not happy, and hurriedly protected the mountain goods picked up on the side: "What are you doing here, are you trying to rob my mountain goods?" ”
"Oh no."
Gu Zhilai knew that she hadn't heard, so he hurriedly explained: "Auntie, I am the one who just married your relative, and the father-in-law asked me to come to see you and bring you something by the way." ”
When she said this, the woman remembered: "Ah, I remembered, that old boy didn't come to see me, but you came to work hard." ”
Seeing that a fresh person was coming, Su Qiong was quite excited, and she didn't care about the mountain goods that she hadn't had time to pack up anymore: "I heard that your daughter-in-law is here, what about her." ”
"I met Second Uncle Shi on the road, he brought us over, and his daughter-in-law was in his carriage."
Gu Zhilai pointed to the back courtyard door and said.
"Okay, okay, then hurry into the house, it's dark and the big ravine is cold, don't freeze." Su Qing hurriedly beckoned Gu Zhilai and Xu Ying in.
To be honest, it's still a bit far-fetched to say that it is a relative.
No one remembers the name Su Qiong, everyone calls her sister-in-law, she was a little unaccustomed to it at first, but then she got used to it after a long time, she said to Second Uncle Shi: "Second brother, come in too, today I made a bud rice cake at home, it has just come out of the pot, it's hot, come in and warm up." ”
"Haha, no need, sister-in-law, I'll send it here." Second Uncle Shi waved his hand: "My family has already prepared to eat today, just waiting for me to go home and eat a hot bite." ”
His family is considered to be a good family in the entire Shi Niangniang Village, at least it is not so dilapidated.
"Okay, next time I'll come over and have a drink with your eldest brother when it's a good time."
Sister-in-law Dahai didn't forcibly keep Second Uncle Shi, and after sending Second Uncle Shi at the door, she took a good look at Gu Zhilai and Xu Ying.
Xu Ying hugged the child and called her aunt, and the sister-in-law was full of joy when she heard it.
"This daughter-in-law is handsome, if this is left with us, it will definitely be queuing up to talk about matchmaking, you are also very powerful, and you are holding a baby, white and pure!"
Sister-in-law Dahai squinted at the whiteness in Xu Ying's arms.
In their place, if they can marry such a daughter-in-law and give birth to a white baby, that is called ability.
The countrymen are very simple about compliments, Xu Ying smiled, and she could see that this sister-in-law did not have the right and wrong of the city, and she was easy to talk.
Her yard is quite large, which is typical of building a fence and tearing down the wall and then connecting a house, which is very common.
This is the way it is in the countryside, when you want to start a family, you basically build another house outside your own home and live next to your parents, which is such a structure.
Gu Zhi looked around the house and was also a little confused.
Is this house too much?
In Sanmin Village before, there was no such exaggerated appearance, at most it was three or four rooms, where are there so many houses?
"I have five sons in my family, none of whom are girls, but my two younger sons are now working outside the home." Sister-in-law said: "My two youngest sons are just angry, and they took the exam the year the college entrance examination resumed, and they became college students!" ”
She spoke with pride and pride in her tone.
This is a college student in the village, and he is a talent wherever he goes.
"When they're gone, stay there, and I'll collect it for you later." Sister-in-law Dahai pointed to a room and said, "The rest is the room for me and the old man, as well as your eldest brother and second brother." ”
Looking at the house that the big sister-in-law pointed out, it is probably the best house in this yard, because it is newly built, and it is made of stone and mud, which is a little stronger than a wooden house.
Xu Ying was relieved to see it.
She is not afraid of hardship and can't stand it, but she is worried that she will sleep with her in vain, in case something happens, she doesn't dare to think about it.
Not long after I came in, the children and adults inside came out one by one, and it was very fresh to see Xu Ying and his wife.
"Come on, let's get to know each other."
Sister-in-law Dahai called out one by one and introduced them to Gu Zhilai: "These little babies, this one is the boss, that one is the second one, and the third one is the ...... The remaining two little ones are not married. ”
The two men greeted each other one by one.
Sister-in-law Dahai is not very old, but she married early and gave birth early, she looks like she is in her forties, less than fifty years old, the eldest is already thirty-two years old, and the children are ten years old.
The second child is about the same age, and the third child is basically younger than Xu Ying and Gu Zhilai.
"It turned out to be my in-laws, come on, go up to the house, and tell me how it happened to get married in the city." Brother Shi's daughter-in-law pulled Xu Ying and them in: "Don't blow outside, sit for a while, and when the second and third brothers come back from hunting, I will make you a delicious meal!" ”
