The small courtyard is also convenient for water, and like the Li family, a well was dug in the courtyard, equipped with an iron pressure handle, and the well water came out when it was shaken.

The well water is cool and clean, and it's free.

It has been useless for more than a year, and it does not affect the water quality, but the first bucket and N buckets of water have not come to wash the floor and wipe the table, and water the trees and flowers.

There are also some firewood, lit, put on the iron pot, boil hot water to wash dishes and chopsticks, and by the way, burn buckets of hot water to wash hair and bathe.

"Mingyue, you go to the briquette factory behind the middle school next to you and ask someone to send some honeycomb coal."

Li Yunting took the grass ash off her head and said.

The firewood is warm, but dusty, and she loves cleanliness so much, she is certainly not used to it.

"Did your friend drive it?"

Mingyue rubbed her eyes and asked.

A hundred meters ahead, there is a middle school, but she hasn't been around the area.

"I often buy his briquettes, and I have an impression of it, and you say that I buy it, and I won't shout a high price."

"Lao Yun, can't you come out, you have quite a wide network, and even the boss who sells honeycomb coal in the town knows you."

"Don't laugh at me, hurry up, and come back to take a shower and change clothes."

Li Yunting couldn't stand her little eyes looking at her, so he took her hand and urged.

"Then you have to be good at home, I'll be back soon."

Mingyue smiled sweetly, washed her face and hands, and opened the door and went out.

She was thinking about buying honeycomb coal in her heart, and she was worried about not knowing the address, but Li Yunting had insight into everything and took the initiative to bring it up, what a careful guy.

After passing through an alley, I came to the back of the middle school, and sure enough, there was a briquette factory with a wooden sign.

It is said that it is a briquette factory, but it is actually an open field, next to which there are several tons of coal and loess, and then more than a dozen men are making honeycomb briquettes with a hand-pressed lotus root coal machine.

The sunlit place is filled with artificially made honeycomb coal.

"Is the boss there?"

Mingyue walked to the gate and shouted inside.

The accent is not like the local, and she is also beautiful, and her dress is more fashionable, so it is especially easy to attract attention.

"I am, is there something wrong?"

In the guard room, a tall, thin middle-aged man came out.

Dark-skinned and modestly dressed, he looks quite shrewd, and in order to save his salary, he acts as a doorman and security guard in his spare time.

"I want to buy briquettes, a hundred." Mingyue said straight to the point.

"You're not a local, are you?"

The man looked Mingyue up and down, who was about the same height as himself, opened the door, and let her in to talk.

I couldn't help but take a few more looks.

"Those in the provincial city are married here."

"In this way, 2 cents and 5 a, the bag will be delivered to the house." The man thought for a moment.

"Then you sent it to the Li family in Stone Village, is it convenient to send it over now?"

Mingyue didn't bargain either, and said the address directly.

"Okay, Li family...... Which Li family? ”

The man was obviously stunned for a moment, then turned his head and asked.

"Li Zhenshan's eldest son, Li Yunting, my man."

“？？？”

"Don't believe me? Why don't you go and ask? ”

"Believe, I believe! Cheng, one dime and fifty one, I will personally send it to you. ”

The man put away his surprised expression and patted his chest and said.

"Thank you, just send it to the courtyard of No. 28 Lao Cai."

Mingyue said without changing her face.

"Huh? Isn't it sent to Stone Village? Did you move out after you got married, or did he come back to work? ”

The man was a little surprised, but he didn't dare to ask more, so he had to ask and answer himself.

"We split up and live in the town for the time being."

"Okay, I'll immediately call the workers to load the truck and send it over immediately."

"Send two hundred, it's cold and you have to bake the fire. This is the deposit, and when it all comes, I will pay the rest of the money. ”

Mingyue handed him 10 yuan, and then left without looking back.

“…… When did Captain Lee marry his daughter-in-law? ”

The man took the money and was stunned in place for several seconds before he came back to his senses and loaded the car.

There are not many people who use honeycomb coal in the countryside, and Li Yunting's family is one of them, so he is very impressed.

I also learned about the Li family from the side, who can afford to use honeycomb coal, because the owner of the briquette factory also had the dream of becoming a soldier when he was young, so he especially admired him.

After quickly loading a cart of briquettes, the man personally drove the tractor to deliver the black honeycomb coal to the designated place.

He got out of the car with two workers, knocked on the door, and began to carry briquettes into the house.

has to add money, and the labor cost also has to be one-fifth, which hinders the "acquaintance", and it is close, and it is directly reduced.

However, Mingyue still gave him 30 yuan, not wanting to take advantage of him or owe favors.

The man didn't see Li Yunting, and he didn't dare to ask, but he was a little absent-minded when he moved the briquettes, but he didn't dare to stay, and he glanced at the back of the room and turned around and left.

"Why don't you hide in the house?"

After sending them away, Mingyue went to the bedroom and asked.

"I don't really want to meet, I'm afraid he'll pester me and ask questions."

Li Yunting closed the book and said lightly.

It was a book on military matters, and it was in a foreign language.

"Knock Knock"

There was an urgent knock on the door.

"I'm afraid it's a sea of clouds, Yunxi and they're here."

As soon as Mingyue pushed Li Yunting out, there was a shout from Yunhai outside the door, "Big brother, I'm Yunhai, am I at home?" ”

"Here we go!"

Li Yunting answered and pulled the door open.

Sure enough, it was Li Yunxi and Li Yunhai standing outside the door, each carrying a plastic bag in their hands.

"Why are you still buying things?"

Mingyue didn't want them to break the bank, so she complained a few words and closed the door and called them in for dinner.

"Sister-in-law, we don't spend any money, we all pick fresh vegetables from nearby vegetable fields."

Li Yunhai put the vegetables on the ground of the house and said.

He had a fellow student who grew vegetables and sold them, and it happened that there were too many cabbages for fear of rotting in the ground, so he called a few good classmates to pick vegetables, and each of them picked a few.

"Then let's fry cabbage in the evening, shall we? There are also beef and dumplings! ”

Mingyue broke the cabbage, put it in a basin, and poured water to soak it.

"Sister-in-law, is this the New Year? There are even dumplings. ”

Li Yunhai asked excitedly.

"New home, celebrate, you two go and see the room, tell me which one you want to stay, and you are welcome to come at any time."

Mingxin thought that he would find a carpenter another day when he had time, make a few signs, write a sentence, and hang them on the door so that everyone could recognize the door.

"Thank you, sister-in-law."

Li Yunhai hurriedly pushed his brother to choose a room.

"Sister-in-law, does Mom know about this?"

Li Yunxi helps to cook in the kitchen, and Yanran is a little expert in housework.

"In the morning, we came together in an ox cart, and we cleaned up together, and she went back after lunch at noon."

"Sister-in-law, how do you take care of my eldest brother alone? Why don't I move in so that I can take care of my eldest brother with you. ”

"Yunxi, if you move out, your parents will definitely blame me, and then you will think that I poured you ecstasy soup."

Mingyue smiled and shook her head.

In my heart, I want them to move in together, and more or less have a care.
