others

When Ah Jian heard someone calling him, he quickly rolled off Qiaoying and responded in a panic. Qiaoying also sat up in panic, turned aside and buttoned up her clothes, the blush still hanging on her face.

"What are you doing? Come out and help me." The person outside the window shouted again. Qiaoying recognized that it was Secretary Li.

Ah Jian looked at Qiaoying, and Qiaoying told him to go out. Ah Jian finished building the house, and saw his father came back at some point, carrying a ladder into the kitchen.

Ah Jian asked: "What do you want me to do?"

"Help go up to the kang building and peel off the cassava. Your mother will come back later with sacks to put them in. I have a little pain in my waist and can't go up."

"Oh." Ah Jian responded, followed his father into the kitchen, took the ladder, put it on the kang tower, and climbed up. Kitchens in rural areas in this area all have this kind of kang tower, which is halfway up the earth wall.

Put a few beams and lay a layer of bamboo on top to form a compartment similar to a small attic. Dried cassava is stacked on top, which is both ventilated and dry. A fire pit is burned below, and people have to bake the fire and dry the cassava, killing two birds with one stone.

Ah Jian stood on top and peeled off the cassava. He asked, "Who are you selling it to?"

"Hailun, who else wants it?"

"Is he the only one in the village who wants it?" Ah Jian had just returned home not long ago, and he still didn't know many things in the village.

"He is the only one who has a tractor. Who would dare to ask for one if he doesn't have a tractor?" Hailun drives a tractor in the village. It is a separate business. He usually pulls wood, firewood, cassava and other things from the villagers and sells them on the street. He decides the price.

Forget it. As a result, he also made a lot of money and became a million-yuan household in the village.

Ah Jian threw the dried cassava down with a clatter. Since the sack had not been brought back yet, Secretary Li was idle outside the door. The father and son did not say a word.

Secretary Li asked again: "When are you and Hailun going to buy a car?"

"We'll go after Haishan's drinking party. Hailun said he would wait until the date to go out."

"Of course it depends on the date. Do you think such a big thing is child's play?" Rural people are superstitious and have to ask someone to calculate everything with their fingers. Those who know a little bit also have general books at home.

At this time, Ah Jian's mother came back from Hailunna with a sack. Secretary Li found a rake and took the cassava to the door, and he and his wife put the cassava into the sack one by one.

Qiaoying felt uncomfortable in the room alone, so she walked out. Ah Jian's mother was quick to talk. As soon as she saw Qiaoying, she asked: "Is Yingzi coming to play?"

Qiaoying's discomfort was resolved by Ah Jian's mother's enthusiasm. She said, "Yes, I was listening to music just now." As she said that, she came over and helped Ah Jian's mother pack the cassava.

Ah Jian's mother closed the mouth of the sack and said, "Oh, it's so dirty. I don't want you to pretend. You go and listen to the show."

Qiaoying had already grabbed a few cassava sticks and reached the mouth of the bag. She opened the bag and said with a smile: "Why are people in the mountains so afraid of getting dirty?"

"Oh, you are such a good girl. If any family is lucky enough to ask you to be their daughter-in-law, it will be a blessing they cultivated in their previous life."

"Auntie, you are kidding me again. Your family is Jiancai. Whoever marries him will be lucky."

Ah Jian's mother was very happy after hearing this. She said, "Yingzi, how old are you this year?"

"It's over twenty."

"Your sister is not in a hurry to find you an in-law, right?"

"Don't rush it, it will come naturally when you find the right one."

"That's right, my house is built..."

"Mom, how many bags should I put in?" Ah Jian heard his mother talking about him from above, and knew that her mother must want to put him and Qiaoying together, so he hurriedly interrupted her.

Qiaoying's heart was as sweet as honey. She knew that Ah Jian's mother was deliberately bringing her and Ah Jian together, but she didn't know that her relationship with Ah Jian had just progressed a step further.

Just like that, Ah Jian's mother and Qiaoying chatted happily, and every time Ah Jian's mother wanted to talk about Ah Jian's things, Ah Jian would always deliberately interrupt. Qiaoying knew that Ah Jian was embarrassed, so she just laughed.

Smiling, Ah Jian's mother also saw from Qiaoying's expression that she and Ah Jian had something in common, and was very happy. Qiaoying helped Ah Jian's family bag the cassava and then went back.

Let’s talk about Xiulan later. After she escaped home, Haikun had come back. He came back after hearing others say that his wife had a fight with Chen Ming. He was shocked when he saw his wife coming back holding her severed finger, thinking that this time

It's so tragic that my wife was so seriously injured

She must take her anger out on him. Sure enough, Xiulan forgot about the pain and yelled: "Where did you go? Your wife was almost killed, and you didn't come out to save me. Marrying you is really bad."

It’s been eight lifetimes of bad luck.”

Haikun didn't dare to talk back, so he went out and picked a few holly leaves by the sunbathing platform at the door, chewed them in his mouth, then spit them out and applied them to Xiulan's wound, and then found a quick rag to bandage her.

Xiulan was still chattering, "It's because of you, a man who can't even fart, that others dare to bully your wife like this. Today I just bit my finger, but I don't know what will happen in the future?" After that, she cried again.

Got up.

Xia Lian and Xia He also ran back panting. When they saw their mother crying, they also started crying. For a while, the room was full of crying.

Xuemei from the West House heard the cry and came over. Seeing this scene, she hurriedly comforted her: "Sister-in-law, what's going on? Why are you so injured if you don't go to work?"

"Second sister-in-law, you said that I am an honest person and never take other people's things or dominate other people's property. The wild dog that came to the door went crazy and dared to bite off my fingers. Do you think there is any justice?"

Lan cried and complained about her dissatisfaction. She usually had nothing to say to Xuemei, but now she wanted to win Xuemei to her side.

Xuemei knew her sister-in-law's usual behavior, and guessed that she was probably the cause of trouble, otherwise Chen Ming would not have bitten off her fingers. However, he couldn't criticize her in front of her, and seeing her was really miserable.

So he said, "This is true for Chen Ming. What could possibly make him say such a cruel thing?"

Xiulan suddenly seemed to have found someone to support her. She told Xuemei the story with tears and runny noses, but she only put herself in a good light and made Chen Ming a heinous person.

Xuemei nodded while listening, as if she believed Xiulan's words. In fact, she knew that Xiulan's words were all exaggerations, but Xiulan was her sister-in-law after all. As the saying goes, she helps the inside but not the outsiders, and she was more or less capable.

Toward Xiulan.

Xuemei went home and brought some disinfectant and gauze to ask Xiulan to disinfect them the next time she changed her dressing. She also comforted her two little nieces not to cry, saying that the injury would be healed in a few days. These two

The sisters-in-law, who usually had no contact with each other, actually came together in this moment of trouble. Haikun, on the other hand, sat smoking a cigarette without saying a word, not knowing what he was thinking.

Xiulan stopped crying, and chatted a lot with Xuemei as if they had just met each other late. As they chatted, they talked about Haishan's wedding. Xiulan rarely discussed with Xuemei how many red envelopes to send and what gifts to buy.
