When Ye Erni woke up, she saw Ye Laiyin and Mr. Wang excitedly crying and laughing around her. She felt warm in her heart. They were very kind to her parents. She blinked hard to prevent tears from falling. She has a father.
Damn it!
Ye Erni's health gradually improved. Except for Xiao Qian and Ye Dani who were dissatisfied with housework, the rest of the Ye family were doing whatever they were supposed to do. It was just that Ye Erni hadn't seen her cousin for three days, which was a little strange. In the past, her cousin every day
They would all come over to see her. Maybe they were too busy with their studies to come and see her.
He Xiner couldn't bear it after lying in bed for several days without taking a shower.
It's just that she was afraid that speaking would reveal her fault, so she still kept her mouth shut. Now she couldn't tell Mrs. Ye Wang that she wanted to take a bath. After struggling for a long time, she decided to go out of the house and get to know the family. After all, she must be one of them now.
In the afternoon of early autumn, the sun still shines enthusiastically on the earth, but there is no longer the sweltering heat of summer. The breeze blows coolly, and the sky is unpolluted. The sky is extremely blue and the clouds are extremely white.
Ye Erni stood in front of the door and scanned the entire Ye family courtyard. It was really a large courtyard. The main house was a blue brick house that seemed to have been built in recent years.
The east and west wings still have earthen walls and green tile roofs.
Ye Erni's house belongs to the west courtyard and faces away from the west wing and the house of Ye Laiyin and his wife. There is a low wall in the middle that separates the courtyard.
While watching, he walked to the main courtyard. He Xiner had lived in the countryside and knew that families with many sons in the countryside usually occupy a large area. They would first enclose the yard and then slowly build a house if necessary.
There is also an east courtyard behind the east wing, which seems to be about the same size as the west courtyard.
No one in the family is here, so he must have gone to the ground.
He Xiner didn't see the kitchen and walked to the back of the main house. Sure enough, the kitchen was in the backyard, which was larger. There was a chicken coop, a pigsty, and a toilet surrounding the north wall.
It wasn't time to cook yet, and without seeing Mr. Ye Wang, He Xiner walked to the kitchen to see if she could boil some hot water.
A straw shed was set up outside the kitchen, with a pile of firewood neatly stacked, as well as a small pile of dead grass and dry branches.
He Xiner had burned an earthen stove before, so she went to the kitchen and found a large pot that looked like boiling water. It was quite clean.
I scooped water from the water tank and rinsed it several times, then took a handful of dry grass and put it into the stove to light a fire.
Although I used an earthen stove when I was a child, I used a lighter to make fire.
How to make a fire now?
After searching around the stove, a strange piece of stone and iron caught her attention.
Is this flint? No matter, try it.
He Xiner hit the stone with an iron sheet, and sparks really burst out. She quickly went to the grass and tried it. The dry grass was flammable and caught fire.
Alas, He Xiner was overjoyed, she didn't expect to succeed so quickly.
I pulled some branches and took a slightly larger piece of firewood and filled the stove with it, but the fire went out.
He Xiner became anxious and stretched her head towards the stove to blow, huff, huff, huff, no matter how much she blew, it didn't work.
He Xiner was so worried that she couldn't help but hit the flint again and again.
Ye Xusheng came home from school, put down his schoolbag, and walked to the backyard. The water used at home was either his father and his second uncle, or he would carry it. His father and his second uncle were tired from going to the fields all day, so it was hard to wait for them.
Every day after school he would come over to see if there was enough water.
As soon as I stepped into the backyard, I heard the sound of flint being struck from the kitchen, and I couldn't help but wonder who was lighting a fire in the kitchen at this hour.
When I got to the kitchen, I realized that it was Erni who was banging the flint over and over with her head down.
The fourteen-year-old boy tried to calm down and felt guilty looking at the weak Erni.
When He Xiner heard the voice, she raised her head and looked at the boy. Ye Xusheng, who was still in a complicated mood, couldn't help but laugh when he saw Ye Erni's face.
He Xiner's face was smeared like a little cat, her eyes were moving around, and she was embarrassed to look at him. This chapter has been completed!
