Chapter 25: Fear
On the other side, as soon as Ning Xiaoniu entered the house, he saw his sister-in-law climbing to the roof, and his mother-in-law Cheng was directing below.
"Everyone, you should be careful, or don't get it, wait for the calf to come back and get it."
"Mother, don't worry, it's okay. Isn't it just a roof? It will be a while before the calf returns. The wind in our room has been pouring in, and the weather is already cold, so don't blow you sick when the time comes. ”
It was Ning Daniu's daughter-in-law who spoke, with dark skin and a look of five big and three thick. Mrs. Cheng is 10,000 satisfied with her daughter-in-law, filial piety to her mother-in-law, and she is also a good hand at home and abroad. I have nothing to say to Ning Xiaoniu, the little uncle.
"Sister-in-law, come down quickly, I'll go up and do it." It's too dangerous, my eldest brother is not at home, so you can just ask me to do our family's affairs. ”
"Ah, the calf is back? It's okay, it's almost over. Mrs. Cheng was holding the ladder below, and the persuasion of the two was useless, so they could only help stabilize the ladder, so as not to accidentally fall again if Ning Daniu's daughter-in-law accidentally fell again.
After more than ten minutes of busy work, Ning Daniu's daughter-in-law finally finished the roof.
"Mother, I'm down, you help me stabilize the ladder." Ning Xiaoniu continued: "Don't worry, sister-in-law, I'll stabilize it for you." ”
Ning Daniu's daughter-in-law slowly came down with a ladder, and was slapped by Mrs. Cheng before she landed.
"Why do you think you're so tiger? It's going to fall, what should I do? Ning Daniu's daughter-in-law smiled, "Mother, I'm not fine?" By the way, why did the calf come back so early? ”
Mrs. Cheng also remembered this stubble, and Ning Xiaoniu explained today's incident to the two of them.
Mrs. Cheng laughed happily after hearing this, "Oops! That's a good thing! ”
"This Evergreen brother is really capable."
After going back to tell the family, the family was jubilant and wondering how much money they could make, and how many more New Year's goods could be added for the New Year? Even if you can't make money, you can make money for food. The food saved at home can be used for others to eat two more bites.
With Ning Changrong's permission, every household in Xiayuan Village began to build a fire kang, which should have been the season to stay at home, and every household was busy with their work.
Those who didn't come to help, when they heard that Ning Changrong was going to take these people to make money, their bowels were blue.
There was a quarrel near Ning Dashan's house.
"If you are told to go, you won't go, now it's okay, you don't have a share in making money!"
"What's wrong with Lao Tzu not going? What kind of kang can you build, how much money can you have? What do you know as a woman? ”
"Yes, I don't understand, I just know that even if people take you to plant cabbage together, you won't be able to come up with the money to buy seeds! I'll see what you do then. "Originally, they lost 100 yuan on secretly growing vegetables, and they wanted to buy a little to try, but no one sold them in bulk, so they could only sell them one by one.
They also planted all of them at once, and now the total number of people at home is less than 20 Wen. Although Ning Dashan's daughter-in-law is spicy and unreasonable, she is not stupid, since the money is not coming back, why don't you hurry up and have a good relationship with Ning Changrong's family? What if they don't teach them? If they hide it when they teach them, they don't know it!
When she heard that Ning Changrong's family was building a kang, she asked Ning Dashan to help.
Where is Ning Dashan willing? I usually push my daughter-in-law out to hide in front of me at home, but it is cold and freezing in this winter, and I am even more unwilling to go out and waste my strength.
Now that he heard that Ning Changrong was going to bring those who helped to make money together, Ning Dashan was red-eyed and unwilling to admit defeat:
"You! Won't you go back to your parents' house to borrow some? ”
"Ning Dashan! Can't you just earn some on your own? Counting on me every day to go back to my parents' house to borrow, we borrowed 100 Wen last time, and we haven't paid it back, don't you know how ugly my sister-in-law said?! ”
The two quarreled so much that the person who was making clay embryos outside should have a good time.
"This Ning Dashan is a non-planted, and he quarreled with his daughter-in-law, I guess it's a red eye."
"At that time, when my daughter-in-law told Ning Dashan's daughter-in-law about this, didn't you see his daughter-in-law's face, like a dead father, that is called a remorse."
"Hahaha, your daughter-in-law is really damaged."
"When the kang of my house is finished, I will call Ning Dashan to take a look and kill him with anger."
"Hahaha, remember to call me then."
While other families were still building a kang and waiting for the kang to dry, the Ning family was already dry.
After waiting for five days, Ning Qingxi's mud embryo finally dried! At this time, he was laying the kang with Wang Xiujuan.
"Milk, that's great, I'm staring at it, but it's finally done! We'll finally be able to get a good night's sleep tonight. "I'm no longer afraid of being woken up in the middle of the night!
Wang Xiujuan was also happy. When she is older, she can't stand the cold, the average life expectancy of this ancient person is short, she is really afraid that her body will not be able to bear one and leave them behind.
"Not really. What do you say everyone else in this village is doing? ”
"What else can I do? Isn't it just boiling, as soon as my father's kang comes out, I don't know how much merit can be accumulated. ”
"These people are more miserable than when you were younger, hey, Sissy, give me another tug in that corner, it's not smooth."
"Is that so? How much do you leave next to the bed? Ning Qingxi obediently pulled the sheets out a little more, and said:
"Can this be the same? It was a little more difficult at that time, but at least there was a stable environment, unlike now, I heard my father say every day that there was not an uprising here but a rebellion there. ”
"Sometimes I'm worried about what if these people hit us? We're not going to be displaced people too, are we? ”
Wang Xiujuan snorted three times in a row, "Hurry up and come with me, what you say is not auspicious at all." ”
"Milk, I'm not talking nonsense, this is a very real hidden danger at present! You have to be prepared for that. I don't know if the map of this place is the same as ours. Let my dad see if I can come to the whole map, let's pick a good place first, and then find out more news, and when we run, we will also count. ”
Wang Xiujuan patted her granddaughter's back, "Why do you think about the bad side of this child?" You can't hope for something good. Wang Xiujuan was born in the 60s in modern times, although she did not go through any famine before the founding of the People's Republic of China, but since she was a child, she has not heard the elders of the family talk about the more than 100 people in the village at the beginning, and there are five or six hundred people who fled the famine, and in the end only a dozen people survived.
Ning Qingxi learned about escaping from the famine from online novels, but Wang Xiujuan had heard it from the elders around her who had experienced it personally. When I was young, I had a nightmare for a month after listening to it.
Ning Qingxi could still optimistically think about making some preparations, but Wang Xiujuan only had fear in her heart, so she was very taboo about Ning Qingxi's words.
Ning Qingxi saw that her grandmother's face was suddenly abnormal, so she closed her mouth and didn't mention it again.
