But the new house was just built in advance. The furniture and other items inside were built by Carpenter Wang after Wang Zhenglai and Wang Xiaoni got engaged. As for the house of the second son Wang Xinglai, it is still empty at the moment, and he is also waiting for his engagement.
I went to buy it later, so this was the first time someone had lived in this apartment. To be honest, the completely new house gave Wang Xiaoni's family a lot of comfort.
Nowadays, there are really very few families preparing new houses for marriage. After all, having a daughter-in-law at home also means adding a labor force to the family. In this age that relies entirely on labor, who is willing to have a labor force not in his family?
Right under your nose, so even if the house is small, the whole family will still be squeezed together.
But Aunt Wang doesn't think so. First of all, the Wang family's house is indeed very small, even smaller than the Wen family's house. There are only three rooms in each house. She and Wang Dagen have one room, and the girls have one room.
, there is not even a house for storing sundries behind the son's house. Of course, there is a house behind the stove, but it is still very small. Under such circumstances, how will the children live if they want to get married?
, so building a house is imperative.
The house has been built, so she naturally won't do the unpleasant thing of insisting on living in a new house or living with her new wife. It's not a bad thing to give the young couple some space. Besides, she has seen it with her own eyes.
She is reassured by her daughter-in-law’s temperament, so she can’t cause any trouble if she lives alone, so she naturally feels more at ease.
No, after arriving at the new house, not only the Wang family was satisfied, but Wang Xiaoni's family was even more satisfied.
After Aunt Wang greeted Wang Xiaoni and her family, she went to the kitchen. The Wen family were already very busy at this time. After all, several hours had passed since Aunt Wang left.
As soon as he saw Aunt Wang, Wenhou asked: "Auntie, shall we start now? The dishes are ready. Just stir-fry these on the table and they will be served."
"Okay, you do it now, I've left a table for you and we can eat together."
Wenhou wanted to refuse, but before he could say anything, Aunt Wang said: "Don't refuse, there are not many people here today, and I don't know what the situation is like, and I can't invite other families. Now I will invite Grandpa Wen and the Jing family father and son."
Bring her here together, let's have fun together, but don't be polite to the aunt."
After Aunt Wang finished speaking, she left with a happy face, and the rest of them officially started to get busy.
Grandpa Wen and the Jing family's father and son were brought over by Aunt Wang. After their dishes were cooked, the four-table banquet officially began.
Although this banquet is simple, one look at the dishes on it shows that a lot of thought has been put into it. All the dishes are almost the same as the banquet served by the younger brother of the Wang family, and almost all of them are meat dishes.
These days, having one or two meat dishes at a wedding is considered very thoughtful. For someone like Aunt Wang, it can only be said that she is very thoughtful.
Naturally, the group of people ate very happily. Apart from a few polite words at the beginning, basically no one spoke after they moved their chopsticks.
The dinner started out lively but ended quietly. After sitting for a while, the Wen family left first, and then two donkey carts took people home.
As for the other donkey cart, it was naturally borrowed from the Wen family. After all, there is no other home in this village with such a luxurious donkey cart driver's seat.
As soon as everyone dispersed, the wedding banquet was officially over, and the big stone in the hearts of the two families finally fell to the ground.
But the wedding banquet was over, and Aunt Wang didn't have time to idle. She could find out exactly what was going on in the village now, so that she wouldn't know what was going on by then.
After settling all the children at home, Aunt Wang wrapped herself in a big coat and walked towards the lower reaches of the village.
The villagers had already cleared a path out of the snow in the village. Aunt Wang didn't find it difficult to walk on the road and soon reached her destination.
She went to the little sister's house closest to her own house. The terrain of her house was lower than that of Mrs. Wang's house, but the snow all day and night still buried half of their windows. Fortunately, the family did not
I slept too much, and there were no elderly people at home. I got up all night to clear the snow and notified the neighbors, so there were no casualties in the surrounding houses.
But when Aunt Wang went further down, that was no longer the case. The lower-lying houses were all buried in the snow. Not to mention that the whole family was gone. Anyway, many old people and children were gone, and all of them were gone.
It froze completely when the temperature dropped significantly at night.
When I checked again in the morning, my whole body was bruised and hard from the cold. I didn't need any other guesses to know how the person died.
Aunt Wang went to another little sister's home and asked, "How is the situation here?"
The little sister said: "Early in the morning, the village chief ran past each house. 35 people died in our village that night, almost all of them were old people and children. These were all dead, and many of them were too cold to get up.
There are quite a few people who are sick from the cold, and I don’t know if they can survive it.”
But really speaking, it is the responsibility of the family members themselves. In the middle of the night, when they noticed something was wrong, the neighbors around them already shouted for everyone to get up and clear the snow. Not to mention that the whole village was notified.
Not a single household was left behind. For this reason, the village chief even beat the gong while walking to remind the villagers. But even so, some people in the house were still frozen to death.
If you say that someone is in poor health and is freezing, they won't be able to say anything to refute it.
But those people who died when their houses collapsed under the weight of snow really lost their lives because of the word "lazy".
To be honest, it has never snowed so heavily here, and people have never frozen to death in winter, which is really sad.
The situation in the village is like this. After asking about it, this little sister naturally also wanted to care about the situation of Mrs. Wang's family, "Has your wife been brought back?"
"I picked it up. I picked it up when it wasn't snowing." As soon as Aunt Wang finished saying this, she felt a chill on the tip of her nose. She raised her head and took a closer look. Oh dear, it's snowing again. "What's wrong with this snow?"
It started to rain again, but fortunately my wife picked her up and she borrowed the Wen family’s donkey cart to send her back, but it’s snowing again, so I’m afraid the road back will be difficult.”
The little sister also looked at the snowflakes floating in the sky for a while and said, "As long as the snowflakes don't get too heavy, it's fine. I'm afraid it won't be too heavy for a donkey cart."
As for the issue of heavy snow and light snow, that's really not something they can say.
Aunt Wang only warned: "Your house is located on a low ground, so you can't sleep too hard at night. The snow is still clear in the middle of the night."
