"How? I picked a nice house, right? ”

Lu Xiaoyan opened the door of the dormitory, put down her luggage, and said with a smug expression:

"I asked Master Zhao, our hotel is just two of us women, unless we recruit people in the future, we will not arrange for anyone to live in. This room is spacious enough for the two of us, right? ”

Xu Yin looked around, the north and south windows, the previous residents used a wooden wall to divide the inside and outside of the room, Lu Xiaoyan likes the south-facing windows, even if it is close to the door, she still chooses the outer room, leaving Xu Yin with the window facing north.

The furniture is simple: a small long table by the window, a wooden bed next to it, a washbasin stand and a shelf at the foot of the bed.

It's all old furniture, and the legs of the long table and shelves are still a little lame, and the pads are still a little shaky when they touch the broken tiles.

But compared to the chase shop with many people, Xu Yin is very satisfied with such a dormitory.

Lu Xiaoyan's outer room is almost arranged like this, nothing more than a double-door wardrobe with a coat mirror, which Lu Xiaoyan went to the thrift market to find, and the coat mirror is also newly replaced, the original mirror is mottled and damaged, rusty, and can't shine at all.

"If you have clothes to hang, I'll make room for you." Lu Xiaoyan endured the pain and said.

As long as the idle position can be kept, you will suffer a little loss in life.

Xu Yin smiled and waved her hand: "I don't have a few clothes." ”

Lu Xiaoyan secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and then took the initiative to say, "I'll remove the curtain and wash it for you, it looks a little dirty." ”

The wooden wall separating the inside and outside did not have a door, but a curtain was drawn.

The door curtains, like the curtains, are all printed and dyed defective cloth with white flowers on a blue background, which may not have been removed since they were hung up, and they look dusty.

When Lu Xiaoyan moved in two days ago, the weather was not beautiful, it was either cloudy or drizzling, and the curtains in her own room were not removed and washed.

Taking advantage of the good sun today, the two of them removed all the door curtains and curtains and took them to the water room to wash.

"I'll wash it, I'll wash it, you go and do something else!" Lu Xiaoyan rolled up her sleeves and snatched the laundry tub.

Xu Yin didn't argue with her, returned to the room, took out a handful of chicken feathers, dusted the ceiling and walls, wiped the furniture, and repaired the legs of the long table and shelves.

After doing this, I plan to wipe the inside and outside of the window.

When I opened the window, I found that behind the house was a long wasteland, overgrown with thatch, and the thatch was almost blocking the window, which was in stark contrast to the neat flower bed in front of the south window.

"Smack!"

She quickly killed a large mosquito.

I should be glad that it is not yet the height of summer, and I am glad that there are a few wormwoods in the thatched pile, otherwise there may be more mosquitoes.

Lu Xiaoyan slurred the door curtains, brought back the laundry basin and put it at the entrance, it was about to be the hotel's business hours, and she had to rush back to work.

"Xiao Xu, you don't have to worry about it, I'll come back in the afternoon to wash."

Xu Yin hurried up and asked, "Sister Xiaoyan, can the wasteland outside my window be opened out to grow some side dishes?" ”

"Huh? Back wall roots, you say? The thatch is almost as tall as a person, how to plant it? You're fine! Anyway, it's a barren place. ”

That's it.

After Xu Yin waited for her to leave, she took the pulped door curtains and curtains to the water room to wash them, and dried them on the drying platform between the building and the bungalow, where a lot of ropes were pulled for drying clothes and quilts.

Some are marked, some are not.

The marked instructions have a master, and cannot be used casually; The unmarked ones were left by the previous occupants, and they became public after they moved out.

Xu Yin saw that the common ropes were a little worn, and it was easy to get on the curtain with direct dander, so she simply found a new rope with strong bearing capacity from the system warehouse, picked two trees with appropriate spacing in the corner, and pulled one.

She has great strength, can stretch the rope to the tightest, and the heavier clothes will not hang down, and after pulling it, she also uses a short cotton rope to tie a live buckle every 30 centimeters on it, and when she turns back to dry the clothes, hang the hanger and trouser rack on these live buttons, even if the wind is strong, it will not be blown away or blown together. Finally, put on the plaster and write "08".

Hang the curtains and curtains on the rope you have just drawn, and clip a clip at each end to prevent them from being blown away by the wind.

After doing this, she took a sickle and a hoe and came out, put down her sleeves, tied her trouser legs, put on a mask and gloves, went around from the toilet and the water room to the back of the house, clicked and cut the thatch in front of her room, and then used a hoe to dig out the roots, and loosen the ground by the way.

It took less than an hour for her to finish this, the weeds were cleared, the ground was loosened, and when she saw that it was still early, she brought a bucket of water, watered the ground thoroughly, and sprinkled a handful of mint seeds along the window that were common but had the best effect on repelling mosquitoes.

The north window only shines on the sunset, and the summer heat will not shine directly, which is suitable for mint growth.

On the side of the courtyard wall, a small vegetable patch was opened.

Late spring is a good time to sow radish, peppers, cucumbers, eggplant, cucumbers, cucumbers need to build a shelf, choose the innermost side wall root, outward eggplant, radish, pepper.

It's also convenient to go back and transplant the peppers into pots.

After being busy, I went to the water room to wash my face, took a basin of water back to the dormitory, threw a small hot spring stone into the basin, and in an instant, the cold water turned into warm water, I took a comfortable bath, changed my clothes, and took the clothes I wore during labor to wash.

When I went to dry, I found that the rope I had just pulled was occupied, and the door curtains and curtains were randomly transferred to a loose rope next to it, and the edges were almost hanging to the ground.

Xu Yin squinted at this scene, there are really people who love to take advantage of them in any era.

The person who occupied her rope hadn't left yet, it was a thin, mean-looking middle-aged woman, smoothing out the sheets that had just been dried.

Xu Yin walked over: "Auntie, I pulled this rope, you hung it in the wrong place." ”

"You pulled it?" The other party looked at her with triangular eyes and disdain, "You said it was yours, and I said it was mine, does the rope have a name?" Do you call it out to see if it should be? ”

Xu Yin was just about to speak, and a few more women with laundry basins came over.

"Old Zhu's daughter-in-law, are you taking someone else's rope again?"

"Phew! Whose rope shall I possess? This is what I asked Lao Zhu Xin to pull. The other party was not ashamed.

Xu Yin smiled angrily, simply stopped reasoning, turned her head and asked the women who ate melons: "Aunts, which of these ropes are you pulling?" ”

Several women did not know why, but replied anyway:

"This one belongs to my family."

"These two are my family."

"That's the one in my house."

Xu Yin stepped forward and tightened the ropes one after another, and the wet clothes would not sag.

Several women glanced at each other in surprise and thanked Xu Yin one after another:

"Big sister, I can't see that you have so much strength and can stretch the rope so tightly!"

"My family also said that no one can pull the clothesline straight, so I have to pull him over to take a look after work today."

Xu Yin smiled: "I was born with great strength. ”

Then he walked back to his rope and loosened the knot that was tied to the tree slightly.

This knot was learned from Comrade Xiao Jin in a small world, and few people can solve it.

The rope loosened a little, and the sheets, which were still dripping with water, almost fell to the ground, causing the woman to scold and run to the tree to stretch the rope, but no matter how hard she tried, the rope buckle did not move.

Xu Yin smiled at her: "See? This is my rope, and although it doesn't bark like a puppy, its knots are only untied by me. ”
