Zhao Tingting looked at Qiao Mu and peeked at Susie, when she went to the stove house to fetch water last night, she met Qiao Mu, and she said that their house was leaking rain, who knows, Qiao Mu went to cut thatch early in the morning.

She probably knew what Qiao Mu was doing this for.

Seeing that Qiao Mu was soaked, Zhao Tingting was very upset, "Qiao Mu, you are wet, hurry up and change your clothes, don't catch a cold." ”

Qiao Mu shook his head, "No need, I'll have to go up the mountain to cut thatch in a while." ”

He took a bowl of porridge and ate it in large gulps.

Xu Zhiqiang stood at the door and looked, "Are there many places that leak rain?" I don't know if such a big bundle of thatch is enough. ”

Qiao Mu was very serious, "It's definitely not enough, I'll go to the mountain to cut some in a while." ”

Xu Zhiqiang thought about it, and ate two bites in three bites, "I'll go to the team to get a sickle, and we'll go up the mountain to cut the grass together." ”

Yuan Gang stopped him, "Brother Xu, take one more, and I'll go too." ”

Zhu Zhicheng also said, "Get me a handful too." ”

Xu Zhiqiang wanted to say that he didn't need so much thatch, so after thinking about it, he simply patched up the entire roof, so that he could survive the winter.

He nodded and walked briskly.

Xu Zhiqiang soon came with a sickle, and he also brought two hats.

He handed one of them to Qiao Mu, "You wear it." ”

Zhu Zhicheng came out wearing a hat when he entered the house, and Xu Zhiqiang had a hat left in his hand, and pushed it with Yuan Gang for a long time, and finally put it on for Yuan Gang.

Everyone tied up their trouser legs and went up the mountain.

Susie watched a few people leave, went back to the stove house, got a few large pieces of ginger, and cooked a pot of thick ginger soup.

Afraid that the taste would not be good, she also put brown sugar in it, and also let a few male intellectuals enjoy the treatment of women.

After an hour or so, several people carried the thatch on their backs and went down the mountain, but fortunately, at this time, the rain stopped.

Susie beckoned to everyone, "Drink some ginger soup first and then go get it, don't catch a cold." ”

After drinking the hot ginger soup, the whole body was hot, and after drinking the ginger soup, everyone began to work.

The staircase that Xu Zhiqiang borrowed was long enough to be placed next to the wall and extend directly to the roof.

Several people got together to discuss, and Xu Zhiqiang went up the ladder first, because he helped some families in the team to lay out the roof and had experience.

The rest of the people are responsible for handing the thatch up.

Xu Zhiqiang went up the ladder, and the thatch was also handed up.

The house of the whole collective household faces south from the north, and the house where Susie and the others live is the easternmost one.

Xu Zhiqiang stood on top of the ladder and lifted some rotting thatch and threw it down.

The thatch on the entire roof was lifted off quite a bit, and then it began to be rolled up again.

Xu Zhiqiang was tired and then replaced.

Halfway through the dry, the thatch was not enough, and several people went up the hill and carried a large bundle of thatch down.

At noon, Susie asked Zhao Tingting to take out the treasured bacon, steamed a large pot of egg custard, and made a few side dishes.

Xu Zhiqiang saw that it was almost time, so he hurriedly went into the stove house to wash rice and borrowed Susie's kerosene stove to cook rice.

During the meal, Susie asked Xu Zhiqiang to eat with them, and Xu Zhiqiang waved his hand, "No, I'll eat with Xiaoxue." ”

Susie had no choice but to take a small bowl and sandwich some bacon for him.

Xu Zhiqiang put the bacon in front of Yu Xue as if offering a treasure, and he was not willing to eat it at all.

Susie could only roll her eyes except for rolling her eyes.

After eating for a while, she found that Zhu Zhicheng always only sandwiched a pot of braised winter melon in front of her, she couldn't stand it, so she sandwiched a chopstick bacon into Zhu Zhicheng's bowl.

Zhu Zhi was stunned, looked up at Susie, and lowered his head to eat silently.

Qiao Mu's hand holding the chopsticks opposite Susie suddenly tightened, and then lowered his eyes and ate silently.

After eating, everyone continued to work.

Susie came out of the stove house washing the dishes, and was looking up at the roof, when suddenly a neutral voice came from the door, "Which puppies hit my son?" Get out of here! ”

The thatched tree standing on the stairs turned abruptly.

Chen Changqing in the house, they all ran out when they heard the voice, and stood at the door to watch.

Susie saw an old woman with a meaty face rushing towards her at the door, followed by two middle-aged men.

Xu Zhiqiang ignored the old woman, stepped forward and said to the two men, "Boss Yang, Boss Yang, what are you doing here?" ”

Boss Yang roared viciously, "What are you doing? Find someone to settle accounts! The educated youth beat the third child in my family, and it has been two days, and he is still lying in bed and can't get up. ”

At the beginning, the family knew that Yang Laosan was beaten, and no one cared, because it was common for Yang Laosan to be beaten.

But this time they lay at home for two days, and then they felt that the problem was serious, and after questioning, they knew that they had been beaten by the educated youth, so they came over.

Xu Zhiqiang glanced at a few male intellectuals, and saw that everyone didn't refute silently, just staring at Boss Yang and them, and knew that it must be true.

Xu Zhiqiang has been living in a collective household for the past few days, and found that these educated young people are not bad, and they have the heart to protect them, "You also know what kind of virtue your third child is, you must have done something bad to make people caught, and beating him can be regarded as cheap." ”

Yang Laosan's mother Huang Zhaodi rushed to Xu Zhiqiang, and spit on Xingzi in his face, "It's just that he took a few photos when people took a bath, what is this, and there are a lot of pieces of meat!" What's the big deal! ”

"Anyway, my third child can't get up now, so I have to let them pay for the medicine."

Xu Zhiqiang wiped his face, took a few steps back, and said angrily: "Is it reasonable for Yang Laosan to peek at other people's baths?" He's just supposed to fight. ”

Huang Zhaodi didn't dare to provoke Xu Zhiqiang, she was cleaned up very badly by Mrs. Jiang before, and now she sees Mrs. Jiang taking a detour, she doesn't answer Xu Zhiqiang's words, and looks around, "Which one, which is the educated youth surnamed Su?" ”

Susie looked at Huang Zhaodi, her eyes were extremely cold.

Huang Zhaodi met Susie's gaze at once, and she ran towards Susie, "You dare to stare at me?" Little bitch, isn't it you? Look what's wrong with you, you still dare to find someone to beat my son? ”

At this time, Qiao Mu had just come down the stairs, and he saw Huang Zhaodi running towards Susie, and it was too late to stop him.

Xu Zhiqiang was the closest, but he reacted slowly, and he was still standing there stupidly watching.

Huang Zhaodi reached out and grabbed Susie's collar, Susie's body flashed to the side flexibly, and then raised her arm to slap Huang Zhaodi's face.

This time, she used all her strength, and her palms instantly went numb.

Huang Zhaodi was slapped to the side by her head.

Her head hadn't flected yet, and then Susie's second slap arrived.

"You dare to hit my mother!" Boss Yang and Boss Yang rushed over with a roar.

Xu Zhiqiang also reacted at this time, pulled Susie behind him, and blocked the front, "What do you want to do?" ”

Boss Yang and Yang Er didn't dare to do anything to Xu Zhiqiang, they knew in their hearts that if they really beat Xu Zhiqiang, they were only afraid that they would be sent to labor reform.

The two rushed to the front, and their fists stopped in mid-air again.
