Mrs. Bao's yard was full of broken walls, the two upper rooms and the two side rooms were in ruins, and the roofs all collapsed.

There was a quilt in the middle of the yard, like several quilts covered together, and there was a bulge under the quilt, and there were intermittent cries for help.

"Aunt Bao?" Yang Mu called out tentatively.

The cry of pain suddenly stopped, and then the thick quilt squirmed, revealing a head with unkempt hair for a while.

With gray hair, fine wrinkled skin, and frightened eyes, who is it not Mrs. Bao?

Yang Mu hurriedly stepped forward to help, Mrs. Bao was shocked, and said aggrievedly: "I just supported a wall!" They're all gone! ”

Yang Mu looked at the ruins of the courtyard in surprise, in disbelief.

"Aunt Bao, why don't you run out of the yard for help?"

Mrs. Bao was right, "What if I run over and the wall collapses?" ”

Yang Mu: "......" is not impossible.

Mrs. Bao seems to be a problem, her hair can be hung on a tree, she can be hit by bird droppings in the shade, and she can collapse her house even if she supports a wall.

Who can guarantee that when she passes by the courtyard wall, the courtyard wall will not give her a greeting gift and collapse herself? .

Mrs. Bao's nose was very smart, she smelled the fragrance of pastries, and she opened the box very consciously and ate the pastries.

Yang Mu looked at her eating appearance and asked, "When did this house collapse?" ”

Mrs. Bao ate the pastry in her mouth and said vaguely, "This morning." ”

Yang Mu: "......"

Mrs. Bao explained: "I originally supported the wall of the wings, and the two wings collapsed together. After that, I was afraid that the quilt drying in the yard would be dirty by the dust, so I put the quilt away. ”

She pointed to the rope on which the quilt was drying, one end attached to the courtyard wall, and the other end fell crookedly to the ground, ending in the ruins of the upper room.

"The nail that connected the upper room was torn off when I collected the quilt, and then the upper room also collapsed."

"Then what are you hiding under the covers?" Yang Mu didn't understand.

Mrs. Bao pointed to a broken brick on the ground and said, "I'm afraid that I will collapse again and be stoned to death, so I hide under the quilt!" ”

Yang Mu was speechless, if it collapsed again, and the bricks pressed the quilt, wouldn't Mrs. Bao be suffocated in the quilt?

Mrs. Bao finished eating two pieces of pastry, her mouth was a little dry, and she looked at the well hidden by the ruins, with a look of longing.

Yang Mu helped the person up and said, "Let's go to Aunt Wang's house to drink saliva." ”

Mrs. Bao grabbed Yang Mu's arm and said nervously, "You want to hand me over to someone else?" ”

Yang Mu has a question mark, what does it mean to hand it over to others? Could it be that the two of them are already familiar to the extent of their own people?

Thinking about how Bao Lao did not talk to others much except for himself on weekdays, and then thinking about how she defended her in front of Li Zheng and the patriarch many times, Yang Mumo acquiesced to the identity of this "own person".

"Let's go to Aunt Wang's house to drink saliva first, and then you and I will go to live in the county seat." Yang Mu explained.

Mrs. Bao was relieved at this time, and was about to walk towards the courtyard gate, when she suddenly stopped and said, "I still have some net worth to pick up from the ruins." ”

Yang Mu asked her to stay where she was, entered the ruins by herself, and found a small leather box according to the location she specified.

Mrs. Bao happily hugged the small leather box, and under the cover of Yang Mu, she successfully walked out of the hospital.

Mrs. Bao drank water at Aunt Wang's house, changed into clean clothes, and went to Lizheng's house and the patriarch's house, and told the two about the collapse of her house, and asked them to take care of it, and she wanted to go to the county seat to live first.

Then he asked the Chen family father and son to repair the Yang family's ancestral house, and then came to rebuild the house for her.

Daddy Chen took the house deed and title deed taken out of the small leather box by Mrs. Bao, patted his chest and promised that it would be restored to its original state.

Mrs. Bao gave a deposit of twenty taels of silver, followed Yang Mu with a small leather box, and sat in the donkey cart to the county seat.

Looking at the well-groomed Mrs. Bao, her calm expression and meticulous hairstyle are difficult to connect with the old lady who was scared to hide in the quilt and didn't dare to come out.

Along the way, Niu Laohan wanted to speak several times, and cast a resentful look at Yang Mu, as if to say, "You girl, why do you harm my good deeds?" Isn't it good for you to live with me? ”

Faced with Niu Laohan's eye accusation, Yang Mu just didn't see it.

This bad old man has coveted Aunt Bao for more than a day or two, but he just didn't catch up.

Yang Mu took Mrs. Bao to buy clothes, bedding, pillows, and toiletries in the ready-to-wear store, and then returned to Peach Blossom Lane.

When Lin Xiao and others, who lived in Peach Blossom Lane, learned that Mrs. Bao was going to borrow it temporarily, no one showed reluctance.

Lin Xiao and Yang Mu tidied up a wing room in the backyard, and Yang Shi ran around with his little short legs, placing the small wildflowers in the vegetable garden in the house.

Mrs. Bao couldn't hold back her curiosity and asked, "What is the stone doing?" ”

Yang Shishi said in a milky voice: "In the house, it is fragrant!" ”

Listening to these heart-warming words, Mrs. Bao's eyes when she looked at Yang Shi were instantly as gentle as water.

Looking at Mrs. Bao's appearance, Yang Mu decided that Yang Shishi would not tell the old lady about the same thing as putting wildflowers in Qiuqiu and the black big tooth socket.

After settling Mrs. Bao, Yang Mu went to Wanxiangfang and told Zhou Dazhuang and his wife the news that Aunt Wang was going to come to the county seat after a while.

Since you are going to open a hot pot restaurant, the hot pot ingredients must be prepared early.

Yang Mu went out to buy a lot of spices and came back, fortunately there are chili peppers and rattan peppers in this world, this is the soul of hot pot!

handed over the shop to Zhou Dazhuang and his wife, and Yang Mu went back to Peach Blossom Lane to start making hot pot bases.

Half an hour later, the entire Peach Blossom Alley became a hot pot alley, and the fragrance of hot pot wafted everywhere.

Dinner is naturally hot pot.

Because there is no mandarin duck pot, Yang Mu uses two pots to put spicy soup and mushroom chicken soup respectively.

The spicy soup is actually not very spicy, so except for the child Yang Shi, the rest of the adults can eat some of it.

Slice lamb and beef, wash all kinds of vegetables, and put up spring shoots and sweet potatoes.

At No. 16 Peach Blossom Lane, everyone became a dry rice man tonight.

The sesame sauce was mixed again and again, the sesame oil and garlic were made again and again, three catties of mutton and two catties of beef were all dazzling, and even the vegetables were eaten.

When the moon came out, in the backyard, the family sat neatly on small chairs, touching their bellies to bask in the moon, and the sound of burping was endless.

After a long time, Lin Xiao kicked Lu Shan's chair.

"Wash the dishes."

Lu Shan fell asleep for a second, snoring.

Lin Xiao shifted the target to Mu Chen.

The wood dust flew up in a second, and he lay on the roof of the house to bask in the moon.

Lin Xiao turned his head and glanced at Mrs. Bao.

Mrs. Bao turned her head and gave him the back of her head.

Lin Xiao looked at Yang Shi again,

Yang Shishi sat on his own exclusive small chair, pinched the fat palm of Qiuqiu with his left hand, and pinched the big ears with big black teeth with his right hand. At a young age, he hugged left and right, and he didn't know that his brother-in-law was looking at him, and he didn't even respond with a look.

Lin Xiao, who was ignored by everyone, could only get up by himself, go to the stove room to clean up the dishes and chopsticks, wash the dishes and pots.

Listening to the sound of "clanging" in the kitchen, Yang Mu was half-paralyzed on the chair.

Ordinary fireworks, this is called life.

……

In the blink of an eye, the day of completion of the reconstruction of the ancestral house has arrived.

There is a custom in Dashun, the new house is built, someone should live for a few days, praise the popularity, so it is more auspicious.

On this day, Yang Mulinxiao and his wife moved back to live together with Yang Shishi, Mrs. Bao, Lu Shan, Mu Chen, Qiuqiu and Hei Daya.

Seeing the house and courtyard that were exactly the same as before, Qiuqiu rolled on the ground with joy, and Big Black Tooth was so excited that he ran around the yard without any trace of depression.

Yang Shi inspected the vegetable field for the first time, found that there were wild flowers, and was happily busy. Pluck the flowers, send them into a room, pick the flowers again, send them into a room, pick the flowers again......

After Mrs. Bao visited a circle, she chose a wing room in the backyard to live, because Daddy Chen transplanted a peach tree at the door of the wing room, and it was the time when the peach blossoms were in full bloom, which made people feel happy.

Yang Mu and Lin Xiao lived in the East House and the West House respectively according to their habits.

Lu Shan and Mu Chen still live in the front yard.

The kitchen utensils in the stove room were readily available, and Father Chen, father and son, and those masons, gathered in the ancestral house, and ate a good meal with Yang Mu's family.

Throughout the day, the ancestral house was filled with harmony and beauty.

……

The next morning, as soon as it was dawn, there was a knock on the courtyard door.

Yang Mu, who was practicing, came out of the backyard and saw that Lu Shan was going to open the door, afraid that he didn't know the villagers, so he went to open the door himself.

Yang Mu didn't expect that the person standing outside the door was actually the Zhao family.
