The food on the table was eaten clean by everyone.
They took the initiative to help Yang Lina clear the table, dishes, and even the floor.
Yang Lina wanted to help, but she couldn't help. She wanted to take a look in the kitchen, but when she went in, she saw that two young men had already taken the initiative to help him wash the dishes.
When he came out of the kitchen, he saw Zhao Ergou carefully finding a bowl and putting the chicken bones in, then took a few pieces and walked towards the door.
Yang Lina was confused and took two steps forward. Through the light in the yard, she saw a big-bellied wolf dog lying at the door.
The tiger's hair is smooth and shiny, which shows that the owner treats it well.
Huzi probably smelled the strange smell on Yang Lina's body, bared his teeth in Yang Lina's direction and barked twice in warning.
When Zhao Ergou turned around, he saw Yang Lina standing behind him, touching Huzi's head and saying, "Huzi, this is the eldest brother's wife. We have to call her sister-in-law. She is a good person. Don't dare to bite her in the future. Do you hear me?"
The tiger chirped twice and lazily lay on the ground gnawing on the bones.
There are many people raising dogs in the village these days, but most of them are from slightly better-off families. They keep a dog to give them some leftovers and to say something to someone passing by in front of their house.
"Let her come in. It looks like she's going to give birth in a few days. It's inconvenient to have a big belly outside."
Zhao Ergou touched Huzi's hand and paused, lowering his head and biting his lips.
Huzi was his friend and his only relative. He was extremely confused on the way here.
Seeing that the tiger is about to give birth, although it is just a dog, it is not to me.
These days, it’s good for rural people to have enough food to fill their stomachs. Who has extra food to keep a dog?
"Thank you, sister-in-law."
Yang Lina left silently and took a white-flour steamed bun after a while.
"Give it this. It looks like it's going to give birth. It needs some nutrition."
Yang Lina also raised a dog, but the life of the dog was better than the life of the person in front of her. Not to mention the massage, she ate dog food worth 500 yuan per pound every day. Just raising a dog would take a month.
Tens of thousands.
Huzi looked at the white-faced steamed buns in his hand and felt sad.
When he was in the army, everyone saw that he was young and had no parents, so they always took care of him overtly and covertly. Now that he was here, they didn't expect Yang Lina to take care of him in this way.
He gritted his teeth, unfolded the white-faced steamed bun bit by bit, and put it to Huzi's mouth.
Yang Lina knew that Zhao Ergou was feeling uncomfortable, so she said nothing and turned around to leave silently.
After a while, the house returned to quiet, the kitchen was tidied up, and Yang Lina simply washed up and got into bed.
There were more than a dozen people in this group when they arrived, and the kang in the side room could only sleep six people at most. Zhao Wenhu took the remaining seven or eight people to Zhang's open house.
There are many houses in Zhang Kaikai's courtyard, but he doesn't usually clean them up. He's afraid that he will have to clean them up now.
It was already eleven o'clock when Li Jingming got into bed.
Thinking of the breakfast for this group of people, Li Jingming soaked the rice in advance, thinking that he would have to go to the town or county to buy some noodles and vegetables tomorrow, and also build a small kitchen in the brick and tile factory so that they could cook in the future.
Make them feel like home.
Yang Lina tossed and turned and couldn't sleep. Seeing Li Jingming go to bed, she took the initiative to get into his arms and nuzzled in his arms.
Li Jingming hugged Yang Lina tighter, lowered his head and kissed her forehead.
"Daughter-in-law, you have worked hard tonight."
As he spoke, he gently stroked the little wife's back as if comforting.
"fine."
Yang Lina smiled slightly and moved her body slightly.
"I want to discuss it with you. Tomorrow I will go to the town to purchase some things. I want to build a kitchen for them in the brick and tile factory, and then I am looking for a cook. Do you think that's okay?"
"The four of you will decide this among yourselves. Just don't forget that every penny spent on the brick and tile factory must be recorded in detail to avoid any trouble later."
What Yang Lina is afraid of is people's hearts, and she is afraid that the brick and tile factory will have conflicts over the division of accounts in the future. After all, she has seen this kind of thing in the future.
"Don't worry, daughter-in-law, I will do it. When I see them, I think of myself."
Li Jingming sighed, thinking about things from his childhood.
When I was a child, my family was poor. I still remember that when I was eight years old, there was no extra food at home during the Chinese New Year. Because of the Chinese New Year, my mother sold a chicken in exchange for a bag of white flour. She was reluctant to eat it when cooking, so she took a little white flour.
I added a lot of cornmeal and made a so-called white flour noodle meal.
Li Jingming ate two large bowls in one go. As a result, he couldn't sleep for half the night, and he still vomited in the middle of the night. From that time on, he didn't like eating cornmeal anymore.
Tonight, when he saw everyone eating, he thought of his old self in his heart. He was so sad and depressed that he couldn't express it.
Poverty makes people feel inferior and unable to hold their heads high.
Thinking of his transformation last year, he couldn't help but hold Yang Lina tighter, and kissed her face, her eyes, her lips very carefully...
Yang Lina was coquettish and pushed Li Jingming gently.
"There is someone in the side room."
Li Jingming smiled and whispered in her ear.
"Daughter-in-law, I miss you so much."
Yang Lina's cheeks were slightly red, and her small hand touched Li Jingming's stubbled face. Under the dim light, Li Jingming looked a little tired.
Yang Lina smiled lightly, raised her head and kissed Li Jingming on the lips. He couldn't control it anymore and ate his little daughter-in-law inside and out, then took her into his arms.
In the side room, a group of people had quilts brought back from the army in their luggage. At this moment, a group of people were lying upright on the bed, and several people were discussing in a low voice.
"The squad leader is so kind to us. He makes so many delicious dishes. The last time I ate chicken was a year ago. Let's work hard and give the squad leader credit and not lose his face."
"The class eldest brother and sister-in-law are also very nice. She just gave Huzi a white-flour steamed bun. I haven't eaten it even once a month."
The person who said this is Zhao Ergou.
In the darkness, his eyes stared straight into the night, and no one knew the extra sparkle in his eyes.
"We came out here to do coolies, and we don't want to disturb others. Brothers, we will work hard tomorrow and try to build the house as soon as possible. We are all rough people. The house will be inhabitable in a few days. It is not appropriate to disturb others by staying at my eldest sister's house.
."
"You call that little girl eldest sister. From what I see, she is just a little girl who hasn't grown up yet. She is small and skinny. The class eldest brother is really a lucky man to marry a sweet wife."
"My little wife is of no use to us. Our family is too poor to raise the issue. If a girl is so thin, her husband will despise her for being so thin. Look at my wife, she is white, soft, and feels like cotton when held in her arms.
, unlike you guys, who are tough. It’s better for a woman to have some flesh, so that she looks good and is durable.”
