Before Yan Yu could come out, Grandma Rong immediately rushed to the kitchen and heated up a pot of vinegar.
The sour white smoke went back and forth around the bullock cart for a long time.
The Yan family's uncle and nephew were coughing sorely.
Only then did Grandma Rong leave with satisfaction.
Yan Yu waved her little hand and approached cautiously.
"Dad, what's going on with you?"
Yan Laoer sighed and mentioned the situation of the tiger in the city, and Yan Yu became anxious.
"Uncle has an errand and can't come back. What can we do? If the epidemic doesn't go away, Huju City will remain sealed. Dad, why didn't you ask more about whether the food in Huju City is enough? Is there enough medicine?
How many doctors are there? Are their medical skills good?"
She was just about to say don't be useless like Cui Langzhong... From the corner of her eye, she saw Cui Langzhong running out to watch the fun, and she shut up in time.
The villagers who were called over by Yan Laoer with a loud voice started talking about the disease a lot.
"Oh my God, it's a good thing we left early and didn't catch up. If we were to meet the victims of Gufeng, what would happen if someone passed them by!"
"Xiucai Gong is still in the city, and Liang Tongsheng is there. What should we do?"
"I didn't hear Yan Er say that the masks he wears are effective. The work in the fields is almost done. They have to build a house and ask their men to do it. They all tidy up the clean cloth at home. Let's sew more together and let Yan Er give it to the scholar.
go."
"Should we try our best not to run out? If we save some food at home, we should be able to survive for a while. The lord of Huju City is a good man, and he has given us so many rations."
"I don't know what's going on outside? It sounds really evil!"
Village Chief Luo climbed up the big rock awkwardly.
He wants to stand taller.
Luo San quickly supported the old man and dragged him, allowing him to stand up smoothly.
"Listen to me." Village Chief Luo shouted, and the noisy discussion gradually subsided.
The old village chief's prestige is not for boasting.
"We are far away from Huju City and Gufeng City. As long as you don't go out, you won't be able to find the disease. Keep your hearts in your stomach and don't worry about useless things. If you haven't finished the work in the fields, hurry up.
How many days has it been since I finished this?!
The donkeys and mules in our village don’t dare to rest like this!
It's just a good time in these two months. The weather is still warmer. Don't you feel chilly at night? Now that the soil is easy to dig, all the houses help each other and get up quickly.
After all the women in the family finished their work, they all gathered here at Dashi. The affairs of Xiucai Gong are the affairs of our whole village. We can’t help with anything else. I just help mend the seams. I don’t care about others. There is a family in our village.
Counting one family, at least one person from each family must come!"
The old man put down his words with great momentum.
Then he stretched out a hand.
Luo San helped him down with great foresight.
The news spread quickly, and those who didn't hear the news heard the news from others.
There were so many people who came to help, including aunts and uncles whom I didn't know very well, and young girls and wives who were rarely seen in person. They all came with sewing kits and clean clothes and cloths washed by various families.
There seemed to be a women's gathering near the big rock.
These unfamiliar women were a little at a loss.
The women in the village greeted them warmly. The village chief's words were for his own village, and did not involve outsiders. Now that they are here, they are grateful and remember their feelings. They have not forgotten Xiucai Gong, the Yan family, or the Yan family.
Forgot the kindness of their village to help.
Only such people can make friends and be able to make friends.
Even though we were walking together before, we were separated on the left and lived not far away. We could use big rocks as boundaries. It was like there was an invisible river on the east and west sides, clearly dividing them.
The river seems shallow now, so I can flow through it with just a few steps.
Everyone's heart is very open.
Li Xuemei took out all the coarse cloth and linen at home.
The whole piece of cloth immediately calmed the women near the big rock.
Everyone looked at her, feeling embarrassed for Li Xuemei.
But she knew she couldn't back down at this time.
Mrs. Qi came over, stayed close to her, and held her arm naturally.
Li Xuemei felt the warm hands of this elder sister, conveying strength to her through this intimate gesture.
Her body relaxed and her expression became more sincere.
"This matter is our family's business, so everyone has to work hard. Thank you everyone. I have discussed it with our head, and we can't let everyone's hard work go in vain.
All of you, aunts, sisters-in-law, brothers-in-law, sisters-in-law, may have heard about the work points that my waiter has made. Let’s follow this this time. My family’s fragrant peppers, dried meat, charcoal, red bricks, and home-made mortar.
, my house is called Cement, I gave it all in exchange for points.
If it were any other time, that would be fine. Now every family has to build a house, so if we can use it, we can replace it. This is also our family's wish."
What she said was sincere and true, and all the ladies felt happy after hearing it.
We came here to help for no other reason, but what Mrs. Yan Er said is not bad. Apart from anything else, which woman wouldn't want the Xiangjizi? The red bricks and the cement are all used to build the house.
If the Yan family gave them money, they would definitely not want it, but it was different to give them something. This was a thank you gift from the Yan family, which meant that they remembered this sentiment in their hearts.
As for the matter of exchanging points, they had heard it from their children. The children may not have thought deeply about it, but they knew in their hearts that this was a disguised form of subsidy from the Yan family.
"I said, brother and sister, you are a heretic, so we just started sewing and used your good things, hahaha!
But I don’t have enough of the fragrant soap. My two dogs are not as filial as the four or five of the Luo family, and I don’t know how to give their mother another piece. Today, I don’t need them anymore.
I'm not a boaster, I can do needlework very quickly, let's hurry up, brothers and sisters, I can't wait!"
Mrs. Cui even brought her own small stool and sat down in front of the big rock. Not only did she bring her sewing kit, but she also brought scissors.
When he talked about this spicy food, he was very excited. It seemed that he was very concerned about the exchange of work points for the spicy food.
Li Xuemei thought to herself: It’s no wonder that her father called her Sister Cui Niangzi. It was only when she got into the situation that she realized that it’s great to have this sister. She not only smoothed things over but also livened up the atmosphere. The key is that her actions were natural and smooth, and she was such a cheerful and generous person.
.
With her sister delivering the words, Li Xuemei speaks much more smoothly.
"This mask has two layers. The inner layer is made of cloth that we have washed and kneaded softly. The outer layer is made of the ones I have. I sew two ropes up and down on both sides, which can be hung on the ears. I want to put it in the middle of the two layers.
Some mugwort smells refreshing."
Li Xuemei was thinking about the vomiting symptoms mentioned by Yan Laoer. Adding some mugwort wouldn't cost much, but it would make a big difference to people wearing masks.
Yan Laoer said hello to each family and borrowed a lot of straw mats.
Everyone sat on the mat, opened their sewing kits, and figured out how to make masks.
