Li Huaize cooked a pot of tender and delicious meat soup, and the children ate it very deliciously, but Yu Mian had no appetite.

After the meal, the children went to take a nap, and Yu Mian walked out of the house alone, wanting to go outside for a walk.

Mengjiazhuang is a little more prosperous than other places, and just looking at the smooth road under your feet, you can see the difference from other villages.

It's just that now the bazaar is gone.

However, there are also people who take out surplus food or daily necessities and sell them outside the door.

As soon as Yu Mian walked out of a street corner, he saw a house with a side door open, and a rag on the ground outside the door, on which some sweet potatoes were placed.

However, some of these sweet potatoes have sprouted and look very shriveled.

Seeing Yu Mian's gaze, someone began to solicit business.

"Girl, do you want to buy some sweet potatoes? Sold cheaply! ”

"Auntie, these sweet potatoes have sprouted, and the flesh inside is definitely not delicious."

"It's good to have a stutter these days, how can you expect to eat well?"

The aunt laughed, looked at Yu Mian, and continued: "Look at the girl, she doesn't look like a person who lacks food and drink, it's just that, it's estimated that she can't sell it, and she will just throw it here for a while, whoever wants to take it." ”

Hearing this, Yu Mian raised his eyebrows and asked, "Auntie, now it's a famine year, why is your family still throwing food out." ”

"Whew! I'll tell you the truth. ”

The aunt picked up the pu fan next to her and fanned the wind, and said with a smile: "Our head of the house has all been cleaned up, and in the evening when the weather is cool, we will move our family south, how many of these things can be sold, and we are too lazy to take them away." ”

"Moving south?"

Yu Mian couldn't help but ask: "Although the world is not good now, but the life of Mengjiazhuang can still be maintained, if you want to move your family south, you must definitely move the people, and if you encounter any accidents on the road at that time......

"The girl is right, but even if Mengjiazhuang is calm now, it is difficult to guarantee that there is no day of sitting on the mountain, so we have to find some other way out, and our head of the family used to work in the county's dart bureau, and this time the family moved south, and we have also made preparations for a long time."

"In that case, then I wish my aunt a smooth journey."

"Eh!"

The eldest aunt laughed happily and praised her: "You girl looks blessed, these sweet potatoes, if you want them, I will give them to you!" ”

"How embarrassing that is! I'll buy it. ”

"You're welcome!"

As she was talking, the aunt stuffed the sweet potato on the ground, along with the rag, to Yu Mian, "You take it, I can go back and rest for a while." ”

"Thank you, Auntie!"

Yu Mian smiled quietly, "By the way, since you are leaving, what about your house?" Is it so empty? ”

"I can't help it."

The aunt said with some regret: "Now there are homeless people everywhere, I originally wanted to inquire and see if I can sell the house, but who can have spare money to buy a house if anyone who has fled here?" When we were gone, the house would be deserted. ”

"Not deserted, not deserted!"

Yu Mian said happily: "Auntie, you sell the house to me!" ”

"What? Are you going to buy my house? ”

The aunt was a little surprised: "You...... You look like a fresh face, could it be that you are also fleeing? ”

"Sort of, I followed my husband here to join his relatives, but we have a lot of children, and the place where we live now is not spacious, so I want to buy a bigger house." Yu Mian said.

As soon as she heard this, the aunt immediately rejoiced, "Oops! Isn't that a coincidence? Come on, come on, ma'am, let's come in. ”

The aunt immediately enthusiastically pulled Yu Mian into the door.

Her house is still a second courtyard, tidy up, although from the outside, the house has been some years, but the decoration is very elegant, the house is tight, there is no major problem.

On top of that, the location of her house is close to the village center.

This is what makes Yu Mian the most satisfying.

"My head of the family hasn't come back yet, big sister, you drink saliva first."

The aunt was extremely enthusiastic, pulled Yu Mian into the hall, and hurriedly brought the teacup over.

Yu Mian held the teacup, but did not enter, but asked the aunt, "Auntie, what do you call it?" ”

"My surname is Qiao, you can just call me Aunt Qiao."

As she spoke, Aunt Qiao turned her head and came to a Bogu shelf in the hall and took down a black box from it.

"Look, I've got the deed ready."

After speaking, Aunt Qiao handed over the black box, and the house title deed was all written and lay quietly inside.

It seems that I have been eager to sell the house for a long time!

Yu Mian glanced at it, then raised his head, "Aunt Qiao, to tell you the truth, although I have a crush on your house, I don't have much money on me, you say a price first, and I have to think about whether I can accept it." ”

"That's easy to say."

Aunt Qiao waved her hand and said indifferently: "Now there are no valuable things at home, there are just some beds, wardrobes or something, we couldn't take them away, thinking about letting it be abandoned like this, we also feel a pity, so girl, you don't have to worry, just look at it and give some." ”

This Aunt Qiao speaks and does things neatly, and she has the chivalrous demeanor of a child of the rivers and lakes.

"Auntie, are you at home?"

Suddenly there was a shout outside the door.

Aunt Qiao looked at Yu Mian and said, "Little lady, you think about it first, I'll go out for a while." ”

"Okay."

"Auntie, I brought something to you!"

The sound of urging was heard again in the courtyard.

Aunt Qiao said loudly: "Okay, Da Chun, you can put it in the yard first!" When your Uncle Yin comes back, just let him clean up by himself. ”

Big spring?

No wonder Yu Mian listened to the sound quite familiar.

It turned out to be Meng Chun!

Yu Mian put down the teacup and followed Aunt Qiao out.

Outside the courtyard, Meng Chungang put the heavy sack in the corner of the wall, and was leaning over, rubbing the sweat on his face with his sleeve.

Aunt Qiao greeted her with a smile and hurriedly handed over the handkerchief, "Tired, aren't you?" Come in and get a saliva! ”

"No, no, I'm still not going into the house, you can go back and rest."

As soon as Meng Chun raised his eyes, he just caught a glimpse of the figure behind Aunt Qiao, he fixed his eyes and said in surprise: "Brother and sister? Why are you here? ”

Yu Mian stepped down the steps and said, "Brother Meng." ”

Aunt Qiao was caught in the middle and looked left and right, and then suddenly said, "You guys...... Do you know each other? ”

At this time, Meng Chun smiled, pointed at Yu Mian and said, "Aunt Qiao, this is the daughter-in-law of the Huaice brothers I mentioned to you before!" ”

"What?"

Aunt Qiao looked at Yu Mian with a look of surprise, "It turns out that you are Huaice's daughter-in-law?" Oops, that's a coincidence! ”

"You all know each other?"

Yu Mian echoed: "It's really a coincidence. ”

"Not really!"

Aunt Qiao took Yu Mian's hand and became more cordial, "Okay, okay, now you don't have to think about any money, you can live in this house with peace of mind, and it will be a wedding gift from Aunt Qiao!" ”

"Huh?"

Yu Mian was a little confused: "This ...... Not quite right? ”
