Chapter 105 On the beam

"Guo'er, what on earth is this?"

"I understand, it's a jar, used to hold things."

"Why is this jar made like a foot? It doesn't look like it can hold much."

The brothers and sisters looked at this thing and guessed it with great interest.

Guoer pursed her lips and smiled, thinking that she must not mess it up.

She had long wanted to make a special shoe for her fourth uncle's lame leg, so she secretly paid attention to the size of Yao Sizhu's feet and secretly made a thick-soled shoe.

Of course it is one. Yao Sizhu's left leg is normal. All he needs to do is make an ordinary shoe for his left foot.

Now that the wooden shell of the sole of the shoe on the lame foot has been finished, Carpenter Chen has also drilled the holes for threading on it very finely. Now it depends on how good her craftsmanship is.

After working hard for a long time behind closed doors, I finally sewed this special shoe together.

"Guo'er, what's wrong?" Yao Sizhu was shoveling cow dung with his head down, and was pushed to his room by his niece like a thief. He was confused.

Guoer plucked up the courage, took out the special pair of shoes from the tightly covered basket and handed them to Yao Sizhu.

"Uncle Fourth, try changing this one on. I made it specially for you without telling anyone. Let's try it secretly. If it doesn't work, I'll change it again."

Yao Sizhu frowned and looked at the shoes handed to him. The left foot was quite normal, but the one on the right was a shoe.

Guo'er stared at Yao Sizhu with bright grape eyes, telling him that he really couldn't bear to refuse. Well, in front of his niece, there is nothing he can't let go of.

Yao Sizhu bravely put on these shoes.

Guoer: "Fourth Uncle, stand up and take a walk."

Yao Sizhu helplessly opened his legs and took a few steps forward.

Huh?

He was surprised to find that his walking posture and his right leg had miraculously improved by half, and he was no longer so lame.

He walked back and forth in the room in disbelief. Compared with the awkward and swaying posture before, he now walked with only a slight limp. This was incredible.

He lowered his head to confirm again and again, rolled up his trouser legs and looked at them for a long time. He finally understood why one was higher and the other was lower. This bucket of love was specially made for him.

His nose was so sore that Yao Sizhu bit his lips to prevent himself from losing his composure, and just squatted on the ground without moving.

For so many years, he had been ridiculed by others, and he was so inferior that he dared not see people or go out. Suddenly, he felt much better, but he wanted to cry like a child.

A stone fell in Guo'er's heart. She had known that even if her fourth uncle put on these special shoes and had a big change, he would not be completely the same as a normal person. After all, his legs were bent and they were already the same as they are now.

Very good.

"Fourth uncle, you will wear shoes like this from now on! Come on, let's go out and show them to grandma and grandma."

Guo'er deliberately pulled Yao Sizhu's sleeves happily, trying to pull him out. Yao Sizhu quickly stopped him: "Well, Guo'er, you go first, and I'll get used to it."

Yao Sizhu's eyes were red, and a smile finally appeared on his face.

In the yard, Father Yao, Mrs. Tao and others stared with wide eyes, looking at the young man coming over biting his lips. Is he still the same Yao Sizhu who walked with a severe limp?

Yao Sanzhu circled his fourth brother several times, patted his thigh happily and said:

"Oh, oh, my daughter is so awesome. She can become a miracle doctor. Fourth brother, you look like a normal person now if you don't look closely. Who can see clearly what's hidden in your trousers? Haha.

Ha ha......"

Mrs. Tao lifted up the corner of her clothes and wiped it on her face. She smiled at her youngest son and said, "Well, whatever you want to eat, mother will cook it for you."

Yao Sizhu's mood finally eased and he became sour again: "Mother."

When the main body of the courtyard of the new house is completed and all the courtyard walls are built, the general prototype of the new house is almost ready. All the roofs in the front yard and back yard are covered with black ceramic tiles, leaving only the last beam of the upper house in the main yard that has not yet been installed.

.

In this era, installing beams on a new house is a big deal and must not be taken carelessly. An auspicious day was selected in March, relatives and friends were notified, and all preparations were made, and the Yao family was busy installing beams.

Early in the morning, Mr. Liu's family, Old Man Liu, his son and daughter-in-law, came to the door with a basket of gifts. The Yao family immediately welcomed them and invited them into the house to rest.

The Liu family is located in Xiayao Village. Among the three daughters-in-law, Liu's natal family is the closest. It would be unsightly to arrive late. Therefore, as soon as he entered the house, Old Liu saw that the other two in-laws had not yet arrived, and he felt at ease.

After entering the house, Old Man Liu sent his son to follow Yao Erzhu to the new house to help with the work. The Liu family's wife also rolled up her sleeves and prepared to follow Mrs. Liu into the kitchen. They are all people who are used to working at home and have no time to go anywhere.

live.

But where could Mrs. Tao ask her relatives to help with the work, so she quickly asked Mrs. Liu to accompany her sister-in-law to the house to talk.

There were a lot of guests coming today. The kitchen where the workers were cooking in the new house was greeted by Mai Sui. The kitchen at home also had to be turned on to boil water and make tea for the relatives who came to visit, so they specially called Lian Xiu next door and two other people in the village.

My daughter-in-law came to help. Today, all the daughters-in-law have time to greet relatives.

Old man Yao and old man Liu were sitting and talking in the upper room. The Liu family was also an ordinary farmer. They cultivated several acres of land and had no other livelihood.

Old Man Liu has also been dealing with the land all his life, so he and Father Yao got along well with each other, and the two of them chatted about spring plowing.

"Brother Yao, your family is living a better life now. I heard from my daughter that we bought dozens of acres of land this year, which is a good thing! I wonder what you are planning to grow, all of them growing food?"

Old man Liu's rough voice couldn't hide his envy, but he was also happy for his in-laws from the bottom of his heart. Their lives were getting better, and his daughter would also enjoy the blessings, right?

Father Yao smiled happily: "It's not all about growing grain. I definitely have to set aside a few acres of land to grow some sorghum, beans and the like. I'm old and don't have much energy to take care of the crops anymore. It mainly depends on what the children think."

While the conversation was getting heated, several other relatives came to visit one after another.

The eldest uncle and aunt of the He family came with their three children. Except for Shuanzi, the other three children of the He family were all Aunt He's biological children. The eldest boy was called Qiangzi, who was three years younger than Shuanzi.

As soon as Aunt He entered the house, she took the three children and asked them to call someone one by one.

Mrs. He valued these nieces and nephews equally, and was happy to see the children coming. She quickly called Dalin and Zao'er Jinger and others to come over and play with her cousins.

"Hey, our Dalin has grown so tall. He looks more and more like a big boy, hehehe..."

When Aunt He saw Dalin's eyes lit up, she stepped forward and pulled Dalin to praise her, which made Dalin blush and just want to hide away.

"Look, why are you so shy? Dalin is an honest boy at first glance."

Aunt He praised her, took her daughter Xingzi with one hand and pushed her to Dalin and said: "I have the same temperament as your cousin. They are both honest children who don't like to talk. Dalin, why don't you take Xingzi to the new house to see it?"

After saying that, he pushed Xingzi towards Dalin.

Guo'er was watching the excitement from the side, and couldn't help but wonder when Aunt He said that she asked Brother Dalin to take cousin Xingzi out to play. Wasn't this aunt right? Shouldn't the little girl be with Zao'er and Jia'er?

What's the cause of this fuss?

The little girl Xingzi was about the same age as Guoer. She was not shy at all when she stood in front of Dalin. Instead, she said with a smile: "Cousin, I want to see your new house. Can you take me there?"

After speaking, he stepped forward to hold Dalin's hand, but Dalin was startled and took a few steps back: "Uncle, aunt, I came back to get something. My father asked me to get something and hurry over to help. You call

Zao'er and the others, let's play with Xingzi."

After saying that, Dalin ran away like a rabbit.

"This kid."

Aunt He didn't stop anyone. She turned around and saw Mr. He, Zao'er and the other girls staring at her in surprise, and said something sarcastic.

He also reacted and said: "Da Lin is busy helping his father. I'm afraid he really doesn't have time to play with Xingzi, so he asked Xingzi to stay with Zao'er and Bo'er. Zao'er, take Xingzi to the house and talk.

Speak."

Mrs. He muttered to herself, what is sister-in-law thinking? Xingzi is several years younger than Dalin.

When the little girl Xingzi saw her cousin running away without looking back, she couldn't help but pouted and looked at her mother. Aunt He winked at her daughter: "Xingzi, then you go with your sister Zao'er and the others. You Zaoer

You should help me with whatever I do, and be more diligent."

Zao'er stepped forward and took Xingzi's cousin's hand and said to Aunt He: "Look at what Auntie said, how can you ask your cousin to work? Xingzi, go to our house and let's talk."

Several little girls went to the side room together.

People with good connections in the village began to come to congratulate him one after another. What was strange was that the fourth grandfather Yao Si also came, followed by the fourth grandmother and his son and daughter-in-law. It seemed that almost the whole family was out.

"Third brother, congratulations. I brought my son and daughter-in-law to help. Our brothers have to help with such a big thing. If you have any work, just ask your two eldest nephews. Don't be polite, hahahaha!"

Yao Si said it beautifully, and it seemed that the two families did have a very good relationship.

Father Yao indeed greeted them without any grudges, and asked Yao Si's two sons to quickly go to the new house to help, while he let Yao Si into the house to talk.

The fourth grandma brought her two daughters-in-law to Mrs. Tao in the upper room. She handed over the two gifts she had brought and smiled warmly:

"Congratulations to the third sister-in-law. I'm here to say hello to you, old sister. You are a very lucky person. Looking around the village, how many of them can live in a big house with a second floor? Can the third sister-in-law live in that deep house in the future?

I don’t know the old sisters!”

Mrs. Tao was sitting on the kang and was explaining things to Ms. He. She felt very angry when she saw the fourth grandma. She thought that the two families had already fallen out, and this woman should never have any contact with her. She was really good at licking

Go to the door with a smile on your face?

This wasn't meant to congratulate her, it was just to cause trouble. I didn't even need to eat when I saw her face!

Mrs. Tao is an outspoken person who means what she says. Whatever she thinks in her heart will be reflected on her face. Now she is angry when facing this fat face with a fake smile. Most of the wrinkles on her old face have been reduced, and she does not hide herself at all.
