Chapter 14 Charcoal in the Snow

That's it, for the sake of the peace of the house, let them be.

It's just that he is the child's uncle will never change, and if the two children need help, he will still be the first to stand up.

The house was cleaned up, a kitchen, a wing, a master bedroom, the master bedroom is connected to the hall, and there is a small room next to the hall, which is a modern and proper three-bedroom and a living room.

That is, this house is poured of mud, and the roof is covered with thatch, and it is not strong, not to mention, when it rains, it is a dangerous house, and it is not safe to live in.

The conditions are limited, although Ye Lan dislikes it, but she can only give in, but she thinks in her heart that when she has money, the first thing she has to do is to tear down the house and rebuild it.

After cleaning up for a day, in the evening, I finally cleaned up everything inside and outside the house, and even the vegetable patch at the door was reclaimed by Grandma Liu's second son.

Ye Lan thanked him again, and when the people were finished, Ye Lan and Ye Xun were worried about the empty house.

"Sister, there are no pots and pans, no bedding and sheets, what are we going to do tonight?"

Ye Xun had a bitter face, a seven or eight-year-old doll, he was originally a naughty and mischievous age, but he was as worried as a little adult.

Seeing this, Ye Lan reached out and rubbed his head and said, "What are you worried about, with me, I won't let you starve and freeze." ”

After speaking, she looked at the sky outside, it was not yet dark, and she was thinking about whether to go to the town to buy the supplies she needed.

"Bang Bang ........."

"Big girl, my mother asked me to send you a futon, it's a little old, you will use it first!"

It was Grandma Liu's second daughter-in-law, Song, Ye Lan and Ye Xun glanced at each other, hurriedly opened the courtyard door, and saw Song standing outside the door with a quilt.

"Auntie, you brought us the futon, so what do you use?"

Grandma Liu's family is not wealthy, almost a quilt on a bed, which gives them a bed, which means that their family will have a bed without a quilt tonight, how can this work.

"Hey, this quilt is old, our family has long wanted to change it to a new one, and today your second uncle went to the town for a trip, so I bought a new bed by the way. It's just that this quilt is a little old, so don't dislike it. ”

Dislike is a bit disgusted, after all, this is an old quilt used by others, but in their case, people are willing to send an old quilt, which is sent by pity for them, this is called sending charcoal in the snow, she is not a person who does not know what to do.

Ye Lan said gratefully: "Auntie, it's too late for me to thank you, how can we say that we are worried about what to do tonight." ”

After speaking, he took the quilt in Song's hand, but he didn't want to go directly to Ye Xun's room.

Men and women are seven years old, and before coming, Song forgot that Ye Xun was eight years old, so he couldn't sleep in the same bed with Ye Lan again.

There is only one bed in this quilt, and it was given to Ye Xun, so how did Ye Lan spend tonight?

"Bang Bang ........."

Song was thinking about whether to go back and bring another bed when there was another knock on the door.

Ye Lan went to the room to put the quilt, and Ye Xun ran to open the door, but was stopped by the Song family.

Just as Ye Xun looked at Song in puzzlement, Song said to him: "Xun'er, you will remember in the future, if someone knocks on the door, you have to ask who he is, if it is an acquaintance, you can open the door, if it is a stranger, you can't just open the door."

If it's a bad guy who comes, wouldn't you hurt yourself and your sister if you open the door? ”

Ye Xun wanted to say, just in their yard, not to mention the bad guys, he could just flip out and go in.

But he knew that what Aunt Song said was right, so he nodded and responded: "Auntie, Xun'er knows." ”

"Hurry up and open the door if you know, I'm your Aunt Zhang, not a bad person."

Outside the door was the village chief's daughter-in-law, Zhang, who listened to all of Song's words and felt that Song's teaching made sense.

In the past, there were no such worries, but since the Wang family sold people, the people in the village did not dare to let the children go out to play at will.

I heard that on the day Ye Lan's sister and brother were sold, Wang Er, who was lazy and often stole chickens and dogs in the next village, came to their village.

The villagers all said that the Wang family sold people to the second king, so they all guarded against it.

I'm afraid that the second king will come again, and when the time comes, he will not buy it, but directly steal the child and sell it, such a person can do anything.

As soon as he heard that Zhang was coming, Song hurriedly opened the door, thinking that what he just said must have been heard by Zhang, but don't think about it.

"Yo, Mrs. Village Chief, it's you who are here, come in quickly, it's windy outside, don't blow it."

Zhang glanced at Song and didn't say anything, but couldn't help but roll his eyes in his heart, is there a difference between this courtyard and the courtyard?

I'm afraid of blowing outside, so I don't need to blow the wind when I come in?

Just this small courtyard with leaky wind, she just came in, and she felt cold, plus this house that was not popular at all, and remembered that Ye Wen and his wife died in this house, she couldn't help but shudder.

"Oh, this is the old clothes that my Yulian and Yulong worn, although they are a little old, but the materials are good, and they haven't even been patched.

If it weren't too young to wear, I wouldn't have been willing to give it away, but now I saw that their sister and brother didn't even have decent clothes, so I couldn't bear to send them over.

Xun'er, your Brother Yulong's will be worn for you, and Sister Yulian's will be given to your sister, I still have something to do, so I'll go back first. ”

After Zhang finished speaking, he almost ran away from the small courtyard, and looked at Song and Ye Xun stunned.

"Aunt Song, Aunt Zhang, what's wrong with her?"

Ye Xun looked at the Zhang family who fled in confusion, not understanding why she was running, as if she was afraid of something.

"How do I know, no matter her, come and take a look at this dress, well, it's really good, it's cotton, and there is cotton sewn in it, it must be warm to wear."

Song couldn't put it down and stroked the clothes sent by Zhang, saying that they were old clothes, but they were better than those worn by her children.

Countrymen are rarely willing to buy cotton cloth to make clothes, not to mention expensive, not to mention wear-resistant, half-grown children are the most waste clothes, who is willing to take cotton clothes for children to wear, are used coarse cloth.

"Aunt Song, why don't you pick one for Huzi to wear, Xun'er has one set is enough."

As soon as Ye Lan came out, she saw the Song family holding her clothes and stroking her clothes, and she immediately made a sound.

Song blushed a little, put down his clothes and stood up, and said, "That's not good, this is given to you by your Aunt Zhang, I can't take it." ”

It's all in a village, and if she looks up and doesn't see anyone looking down, if she takes her clothes back and puts them on for her children, once she asks Zhang to see it, she doesn't know what she will think.

"I'm going back, you guys should rest early."

Song finally looked at the clothes reluctantly, and then left, and no longer wanted to send the quilt.

With the clothes sent by the Zhang family and the quilt she sent, she believed that the sister and brother couldn't stay cold at night.
