Only then did she understand why Liu Jinbao brought a second-rate son to make trouble, and no one squeaked next door.

As soon as Lin Lan walked in the middle of the machine farming road, He Cuicui deliberately said loudly: "Lin Lan, I heard that you have money now, hurry up and return the money you borrowed from us." ”

"Good!" Lin Lan counted four yuan and returned it to the two, and said with a red face: "I'm sorry, I only returned the money to you today." ”

Li Guizhi, who originally thought it would take a lot of speech, glanced at her in surprise, reached out to take the money, and said softly: "Just pay it back." ”

He Cuicui pursed her lips: "If you have money to buy melon seeds, you won't have money to repay the debt." After that, he pulled Li Guizhi away.

The two went to Zhang Yazhen's house, and He Cuicui looked at Zhang Yazhen with a smile: "I was in a hurry just now, I haven't asked you how I know that Lin Lan is rich?"

Zhang Yazhen walked to the gate of the courtyard and took a look, closed the courtyard door and came back with a proud face: "In the morning, Liu San brought someone to kick the door ...... the Yang family, and I heard Yang Dingbang say to the police that he wanted Liu Jinbao to compensate for her door. also said that Yang Laoqi owed gambling debts and had nothing to do with Lin Lan. ”

"I saw that she followed the police, so I stood at the gate of the courtyard and waited for her to come back and ask her for money, who knew that she gave it to me happily."

He Cuicui grinned: "Yazhen, you are still clever, otherwise you don't want to get this money back!" ”

Zhang Yazhen smiled proudly and attached it to He Cuicui's ear: "I'm going to fight with her and let Yang Dingbang help pay back the money." ”

He Cuicui glanced at her: "Yang Dingbang will help her pay it back?" ”

Zhang Yazhen squeezed her eyebrows and said: "People are big criminal policemen, they can see the money?" ”

He Cuicui nodded: "That's the same." ”

Li Guizhi smiled: "Actually, Lin Lan is also quite pitiful, I originally thought that I was married to the edge of the city, but I didn't know that Yang Laoqi was a poor second-rate gambler." ”

"Why do you feel sorry for her?" Zhang Yazhen pouted, "I was originally a shallow-eyed, lazy mother-in-law, but now she is a widow, and she looks demonic, let's ask her a little, you know what I mean!" ”

"Yes!"

The two understood and thanked Zhang Yazhen with a smile and went home.

****

Lin Lan stood in the courtyard and looked at her current home, the courtyard sat north and faced south, and the courtyard was spacious. The house is surrounded by an adobe wall, and there is a vegetable patch that is more than a centimeter in size.

There is a bamboo forest outside the west wall, and outside the east wall is the Yang family's own land, and the rape planted in the field is still planted by the original owner's mother, who brought her two brothers to plant it two months ago.

The house looks old, with three main rooms covered with brick walls, and three east and west wings, but they are earthen walls, and the roof is covered with wheat straw.

The one on the right hand side of the hall house is the marriage room of the original owner and Yang Guangming, after Yang Guangming died, the original owner did not dare to live in it, so he moved to the left room.

The west wing, next to the main house, is a firewood room, and there is a stone mill in the corner of the door, which is piled with firewood, grass and various sundries.

There are also two pigsties, there is a boxy chicken coop made of bamboo in the corner, and the thatched toilet is also in the pigsty house, and a toilet is dug to the manure tank below, and the manure tank is dug behind the west wing.

The hall has two doors, the east wing is against the main room, and the two rooms are the rooms of Yang Guangming's three sisters when they were not married.

A long bamboo pole hangs horizontally under the eaves, and a three-tiered triangular basin stand is placed against the wall, on which are placed two wooden basins.

Two old towels hung from the basin shelf, and a small square mirror on top of the soap box.

Lin Lan approached the small square mirror and saw her current appearance, with a goose egg face, red phoenix eyes, a straight nose, a slightly big mouth, slightly thick lips, and long black hair on her head.

After seeing it, Lin Lan felt that the appearance of the original owner was several times better than his character.

She pulled her hair back up, grabbed it with her hands, and got ready to work.

Pushing open the door of the stove room, I saw a small square table and a few small bamboo chairs, and when I turned my head, I saw a small door behind me, and a light bulb hung on the beam.

Lin Lan looked at the yellowed light bulb and felt that it was better to be on the outskirts of the city, so she lit the electric light this year. The place where she used to live was only connected to electricity in 83 years, and she still remembers the joy of everyone on the day of the electricity.

The next day, the teacher also made a riddle for everyone to guess: there is a vine in the house, and a melon bears on the vine, and when the sun sets, the melon blooms with red flowers.

Looking at the past, there is a two-eye earthen stove against the wall, and a black and red ceramic kettle is hung in front of the stove, and the flames come out of the stove, and the water in the pot is also boiled at the same time, and the daily hot water depends on it.

In front of the stove, there were piles of firewood and grass, and green onion leaves, vegetable roots, and sweet potato skins were thrown on the ground. There are two iron pots on the stove, one pot outside is filled with dirty dishes and chopsticks, and the other inside is filled with half a pot of water.

The cement stove hadn't been washed for a long time, and it was black and dirty. There was a large clay bowl against the wall, and on the clay bowl was a dirty basket, and two were hung on the wall.

Behind the stove against the wall is a heavy, mottled wooden cupboard, which looks old at first glance, but is still very strong.

Next to the cupboard, near the back door, there was a large water tank, covered with a bamboo lid, Lin Lan opened it and saw that there was only a little turbid water left in the tank.

She pulled out the latch and opened the back door, and saw a small courtyard behind her, and to the right of the courtyard there was a well covered with a round stone slab.

There is a boxy, fifty or sixty centimeter high cement pool next to the well, and there is a strip-shaped whetstone next to the pool, and a bluestone washboard is placed near the wall, and a gutter leads directly to the outside of the courtyard.

There is a vegetable patch on the left side of the small courtyard, and there is a small wooden door on the backyard wall. In the vegetable field, a little shallot, coriander and herb were planted. The outside of the fence is full of bamboo forests, and when you look through the bamboo forest, you can see the roof of the house behind you.

Lin Lan looked around and felt that the layout was somewhat similar to her childhood home, and the accent of speaking here was similar to the accent of her previous life, but the place names were all different.

She looked at the yard and thought: It was even more difficult than this before, and she could live a prosperous life, and her days would bloom again and again!

Lin Lan was a strong-willed person, so she made up her mind, glanced back at the dirty stove room, rolled up her sleeves and got busy.

I took a bucket of water and poured half a bucket into the water tank, picked up the bamboo brush handle on the stove that was about to fall apart, cleaned the water tank, and splashed the dirty water in the vegetable field.

It took two times to clean the water tank, and it took seven or eight buckets of water to fill the tank in one go.

Lin Lan went to the stove, took out a box of matches from the stove hole, lit a handful of straw, and began to boil water to wash dishes.

After the water is hot, pick up the loofah and wash the bowls and chopsticks, pottery bowls, pot lids, and baskets, stack them in a porcelain basin, and bring them to the outside pool to put them away.

I went back and grabbed a handful of plant ashes in the pot, and used a brush handle and a loofah to scrub the things on the stove and the cupboard.

I don't know how long it hasn't been scrubbed in the cupboard, there is a thick layer of black ash inside, and a handful of soap horns were found on the top of the cupboard.

Lin Lan took out the bowls, plates, basins and jars, and soy sauce and vinegar bottles in the cupboard and cleaned them.

A jar of lard and some spices were found in a small jar, which I remember from the funeral.

When scrubbing the cupboard, I found several large, medium and small jars in the corner of the wall, and a ceramic oil jar.

There were five or six catties of rapeseed oil in the oil jar, which was sent by the original owner's mother after Yang Guangming's death.
