Ye Xusheng helped He Xiner mix the boiled hot water with cold water, put it into a wooden bucket, and helped her carry it into the house. He also mixed a bucket of water and carried it into his own house.
Conditions didn't allow it, so He Xiner could only scrub it and change her clothes.
By the way, the original owner has very few clothes. Fortunately, it’s not cold yet, so they can be washed and dried quickly. This would be a big worry in winter. Well, let’s take it one step at a time.
He Xiner poured the dirty water into the yard outside with a basin. There was no sewer, and no one came to the west courtyard. It was enough to splash it far away so that she wouldn't have to walk on the dirt road. It was done in an afternoon.
I wiped my hair half dry, and the rest had to dry naturally. Fortunately, it was not cold, so I put the dirty clothes in the basin, took the bucket and went to the backyard, preparing to put the bucket down, and then go to the river to wash clothes.
Ye Xusheng also sent the bucket over and used his own basin to put the dirty clothes.
Not to mention that although the Ye family is poor, they still have a lot of pots and barrels. That is because the third son of the Ye family has become a carpenter's apprentice. Although there is no salary for the time being, it is convenient to make wooden pots and barrels. He has made these to take home.
of.
Ye Xusheng met Er Ni and said, "I'll bring more water and wash the clothes at home. We won't go to the river to wash them."
At this time, Ye Guihua shouted loudly in the front yard, "Er Ni, come here."
It was strange to hear He Xiner calling her, didn't she not want to see her? If she didn't want to see her, wouldn't it be wrong to stay far away?
Ye Xusheng didn't say anything and went to the well to fetch water.
He Xiner didn't know whether to go there or not. She believed that dangerous people should keep their distance.
Unexpectedly, Ye Guihua called twice but couldn't find He Xiner, so she looked for him.
He rushed over with a strong voice: "You damn girl, you can't speak and are mute. Are you also deaf? I can't even hear loud sounds?"
Then he put the basin into He Xiner's arms and said, "Hurry up and wash my clothes. This is fine cotton. You have to wash it carefully. If you can't wash it clean, it depends on how I deal with you!"
The expressionless He Xiner said sincerely in her heart: Come on, how could you have such a big face and scold others even when they are doing work?
Ye Xusheng, who was carrying water, had blue veins on his hands, and tried his best to restrain himself with a gloomy face.
Ye Guihua looked at He Xiner, who was stunned, and curled her lips with disdain: "Go quickly, when it's your turn to do housework in the second room, be alert, you have to wait for me to deliver it to you, you are really a shameless person.
"
Glancing at Ye Osmanthus, He Xiner felt like ten thousand grass and mud horses galloping past.
I have learned a lot! As expected, shameless people are invincible in the world!
The leaves and sweet-scented osmanthus twisted their waists and walked away.
He Xiner made a gesture of contempt toward her back, and Ye Xusheng happened to look at her. Even though she didn't know what it meant, she could guess it. It felt a little funny, and she felt a little more relaxed.
He Xiner took a deep breath and said, forget it, for the sake of the elder of the original owner, I won't argue with her. Then she pointed to two basins of clothes and told Ye Xusheng to go to the river to wash them.
Ye Xusheng, who was pouring water into the water tank, said: "No, just wash it at home. I'll pick it up when the water is used up."
He Xiner was sorry, people in the country went to the river to wash their clothes, and besides, my cousin was not yet an adult, so it was very tiring to carry buckets of water from deep wells.
Thinking of He Xiner, she walked to the well and climbed on the edge to look down. The mouth of the well was not wide. The edge of the well was half a meter above the ground. It was made of solid stones. As her eyes adapted to the light inside, she could see the water level.
It is very low, at least five meters above the ground. It is too difficult to lift water without tools.
Ye Xusheng couldn't help but be amused when he saw He Xiner's head almost reaching into the well. It was also strange that Er Ni, who seemed to know nothing now, suddenly knew how to cook.
After seeing the depth of the well water, He Xiner said she wanted to go to the river. Ye Xusheng still insisted: "I carry half a bucket and half a bucket of water, and I am not tired at all."
That's what I say, but the barrel itself is a bit heavy, and it's not easy to lift it up from the well.
The old Ye family always went to the river to wash clothes, but Ye Xusheng insisted again and again. He Xiner saw that the clothes were not too much, and they were not dirty. It was enough to wash them twice. Okay, it doesn't use much water, then
Just wash it at home. This chapter has been completed!
