When Liu Paner returned home, Liu was preparing to eat.

"Mother, you take a break, I'll go fetch water for you." Li Rong held the basin and brought warm water to her mother.

Li Nan poured a glass of warm water for her mother, "Mother, drink water." ”

Liu Paner washed her face and hands, and after drinking water, most of the heat on her body disappeared.

At the dinner table, while eating, Liu asked, "Third brother and sister, is it going well?" ”

Liu Pan'er nodded, "Smooth, we don't have to fight the Wang family for the time being, the Gu family will come forward." The leopard and the second dog, as well as the eight children below, came back with Village Chief Li and Dabao. ”

Liu Shi responded and sighed, "These children can take care of themselves, and we don't have to bother with it, just give them food and drink." The house in the side courtyard has been built, and I went in to see it, and the inside is also dry. Move into a few bamboo beds and you can live there. ”

Liu Paner thought for a while, "Although the south is not as cold as the north, the winter is also quite uncomfortable. There are still a few kangs at home, the place is big, and there are many people who can sleep. Boys live in one house and one kang, and girls live in one house and one pit, and it is warm in winter, so there is no need to burn charcoal pots. ”

In the north, most of the heating in winter depends on kang.

Liu Shi responded, "Okay, you're right, put the bed and take up space." After dinner, I went to the village Li stonemason for help, asked him to get a few flat stone slabs, and found the old people in the village to build a few kangs. ”

She also wants to have a kang in the room, which is warm and comfortable at night.

"Then I'll go to Carpenter Li, and make a few more kang cabinets and small tables when the time comes." Liu Pan'er smiled, "By the way, sister-in-law, those children have messy and dirty hair, and they probably have lice on their bodies." The boys shaved their heads, and the girls' heads were given the same medicine that Ali Afang and Ah Rong had used to kill the lice on their heads. After taking a shower, they burned their clothes directly and changed into clean clothes. I didn't have time to make clothes, so I bought a lot of clothes in the county and changed them directly, so I will slowly make clothes in the future. ”

Liu pursed his lips and smiled, "Okay, since you came to our house and worked for us, you naturally have to take good care of them." ”

Neither of them was a procrastinator, so after eating, they went to Carpenter Li and Stonemason Li to determine what to use. In the village, there are Li Liuye who are good at pankang, there are ready-made mud bricks, and Li stonemason's family has ready-made smoothed stone slabs, and he directly brings people to pankang. When the house was being built, a few live bricks were reserved for taking them down and using them as the entrance to the fire of the ondol.

If you give money, you can buy a slate, make a custom kang cabinet, and pay a deposit.

In one afternoon, they were divided into two, and after a few days they were dried, and a mat made of straw was spread, and then a reed mat was spread, and people were ready to live.

came to help, Liu Paner gave the salary, and definitely didn't let people work in vain.

There were many people in the evening, Liu Paner decided to eat noodles tonight, cooking is simple, after all, the meal of nearly twenty people, stir-fry is too troublesome.

When she came to Jixiang Village, Sister Mao'er's big eyes kept staring around, cautious.

The leopard and the second dog had already come once before, so they were familiar with each other and were not nervous.

Li Dabao took Baozi and Ergouzi, and four other boys, the youngest was six years old, but because he couldn't eat, he was hungry and thin, and he was also very short.

The shaver of the village has already come.

Li Dabao said: "You have lice on your heads, and my mother said that you have lice on your body and are easy to get sick, so you have to shave off your hair." ”

The leopard looked embarrassed, he and Ergouzi had to send spring water to Zuixianlou every day, and they took a bath several times a day, so there were no lice on their bodies, but their younger brothers and sisters might not be able to take a bath, and their bodies were dirty.

However, he didn't explain, it doesn't matter if you shave your hair, they don't have parents anyway, and they can't talk about cutting their hair, which will make their parents angry.

"Okay, shave it all off, and the hair can grow back anyway." The leopard replied, sat down, "Trouble the old man, cut off my hair, and from now on, start again, from the beginning." ”

The shaver smiled, "Yes, young man, do a good job at our Lady Drey's house, and I won't lose you." ”

"Yes, sir." The leopard nodded, looking forward to his future life.

After a while, the leopard turned into a bald head, took off his clothes, threw it directly into the brazier, came to the vat, and the water in it smelled of herbs, and began to bathe.

The second is the second dog, anyway, what Brother Leopard does, he will do.

The next children, seeing that their brothers were not afraid to shave their heads, were not afraid either.

After tossing back and forth for about two hours, these people washed their bodies clean, changed into new clothes, and there were no lice on their bodies, and they were clean.

In the other side courtyard next door, Liu Paner came over in person.

"Your name is a cat, isn't it?" Liu Paner asked softly, this little girl is very vigilant and smart, and she is a good object to cultivate.

Sister Mao'er protected the three younger sisters in the back, "Yes, madam, how do you know?" ”

Liu Paner replied: "Because they all call you Sister Mao'er!" Now there are two ways to remove lice from your body, one is to use medicine on your head to poison the lice, but it may not be able to completely kill the lice, and it may take several times to repeat it, which is quite troublesome. Another way is to shave your head directly and soak in a medicated bath to get it all at once. Which one do you choose? ”

Sister Mao'er pondered for a moment, and she also heard the brothers next door shaving their heads, "Madam, just shave our heads, so that the follow-up lice will not be clean, and you will have to trouble continuing to do it, and it will delay the work of the master's family." ”

No one wants to have unclean people in their home!

Since she is going to live here in the future, Sister Mao'er feels that she should think more about the main family, so that the main family can treat them well.

They got dirty before, not just because of the bad environment, but because they were women, and if they were clean, they would have been snatched away a long time ago.

They deliberately made their bodies dirty and stinky, and their faces were blackened, and they looked like they were sick, and others hid when they saw them.

Now that they are safe, of course they also want to be clean and smelly.

Liu Pan'er was stunned, she asked Li Fang and Li Li to cut their hair before, but they were not happy, and they did it several times before they cleaned the lice on their heads.

"Okay, then shave, save trouble. I will prepare a flower cloth for you to look at, and put it around your head, so that you don't have to worry about being seen by others. Liu Pan'er smiled and whispered to reassure.

After shaving the heads of the leather boys over there, the shaver came and shaved the heads of the maids.

The hair and clothes were all burned, and the operation to exterminate lice was quickly successful.

They got new clothes, and although they didn't quite fit, they never wore new clothes, so now they are very happy.

Sister Cat looks like she is ten years old, but she is actually twelve years old this year.

It's just that because I can't eat enough and often starve, I grow short.

At this time, she was wearing some loose clothes, bright peach, which also looked very good in her eyes.

Her little rough hands touched her clothes, gently, as if she was afraid that the rough skin on her hands would smear her clothes.
