"It's still raining now. When it clears up, I'll go up and mend it. But don't have too much expectation. With my craftsmanship, the leak will be less. If it rains harder, there will still be water leaks inside." Yes." Chen Donghua patted him on the shoulder, just get used to it.
Xie Rui and Lin Jingnan looked at each other with heavy eyes.
Habit? The future feels dark.
It wasn't just Xie Rui's room that was leaking, there were three other rooms in total, but their room was indeed the most leaky.
Lin Jingnan looked at the rain outside and worried: "Brother Chen, how can I mend it?"
Chen Donghua spread his hands: "Use straw and planks."
Xie Rui was silent, looking at the rain flowers outside, he quickly made up his mind, and reconfirmed with Chen Donghua: "I heard that it rains for a long time every year, right?"
"Yes, it's half a month now, it should be more than a month or two months." It doesn't rain continuously every day. It will be dried by the sun soon, and if you don’t pay attention, you won’t be able to see that it has rained before, so although it rains, there are not many floods here.
Xie Rui nodded, he understood.
After the rain subsided, Xie Rui immediately went to the town. When he came back, he was holding a bundle of tarpaulins in his hand. The price of tarpaulins was not cheap. Chen Donghua could only sigh secretly, and agreed with a smile on his face. : "Because it's not raining now, I'll help you cover the tarpaulin."
The oilcloth looks big, but it's not bad compared to the roof. It can only completely cover their room, and it's not suitable to lift it up at this time. Chen Donghua first covered the oilcloth and fixed it with stone and wood boards. Then replace all the straws.
It rained all morning, everyone was at home, few people went out, at noon, the sun came out, the whistle blew, everyone gathered to go to the field to earn work points, after noon, the rain was evaporated by the sun, and almost nothing was left There is a trace of it, burning hot on the body, and soon the skin exposed to the sun can feel hot.
Between work, Xie Rui saw the skin color on his bare arms, which had been whitened in winter, and now it has turned dark again, but his skin is naturally fair, and this blackness is only compared to his original one. In the village, he He is whiter than many big girls, so when he works there, he can feel some eyes stop on him from time to time.
He was used to it now, and continued to work as if he hadn't noticed anything.
He knew what he was doing and what he wanted to do. Falling in love and starting a family here were never in his plan.
The sun became very fast. When it was more than three o'clock in the afternoon and it was close to four o'clock, the sun suddenly disappeared and was blocked by thick dark clouds. The wind blew up, and it looked like a heavy rain was coming.
Zhang Chengye asked everyone to go back to their respective homes. Being drenched in the heavy rain is no joke. If you are not healthy, you will get sick.
This was the first heavy rain this year, and it was like a basin of water poured down, and the figure in front of me couldn't be seen clearly after a dozen steps.
Lin Jingnan was afraid: "Fortunately, you went to buy an oilcloth, otherwise..."
The other two rooms that did not take remedial measures in time are now inseparable from people. Once the water basin is full, it must be poured out in time, otherwise there will be a flood inside.
Xie Rui was also a little thankful, looking at the place where the raindrops were falling, he took a deep breath.
This doesn't work, he doesn't know how long he will stay here, the problem of leaking in the house must be solved!
Guan Shaoli received a package sent by Su Hui.
The package was first sent to a transport team not far from Su Hui, where there were his colleagues, and then he brought the package with him when he came back, which saved both shipping costs and time.
Bottles and jars are easy to break, Su Hui used a bag filled with straw as a protective layer, and there were ropes inside to fix it, so when Guan Shaoli opened it, none of the bottles and jars inside were broken.
"It's sauce, right." His colleague rushed out: "Leave me a copy!"
Ever since he tasted it once, he has never forgotten it. The taste when poured on the braised pork is so good that he almost swallowed it with his tongue.
The package was no smaller than the one he sent in the past, the bottom and the head were different, and there were various sauces in the middle.
Bean paste, peanut butter, mushroom meat sauce, etc. are all available.
As soon as he took it out, the sauce was taken away by someone.
"I'll give you the money."
"I'll exchange this with you."
"Good brother, thank you for remembering me, I will accept this."
"I don't pick, anything is fine."
The corner of Guan Shaoli's mouth twitched, trying to stop him, but someone blocked him: "Save some for me, I want to send some home!"
He can understand their urgency, but it can't be that he doesn't have the master, that's too pitiful!
His captain came over and patted him on the shoulder, and took away two bottles in a grand manner: "It's a good thing, doesn't she like seafood, you can send more, her home is in a village, and the nearest is a small town , nothing good, we traveled all over the world and saw something good to leave her a share, it just reflects our brotherhood."
Guan Shaoli was depressed: "I also took some things over there before, but she didn't accept them."
"That's because you didn't come up with something that really moved her heart!" I have to say, he got it right.
Guan Shaoli ordered some of the money left after others took away the sauce, thinking about what would make her heart flutter.
As for giving her the money directly
That can't work, wouldn't it be a business, and then it will not help them, but harm them.
At this time, private trading is prohibited. If someone reports it, he will have no face to meet his brother in the future, but if he changes his name and exchanges special products with each other, it will be different.
Zhang Baoguo touched two fish in the river, Su Hui planned to make one of them sweet and sour fish, and asked him to bring the other to his grandparents.
For the prey she got, Su Hui seldom shared them. It was hard to explain the origin, so it was fine for her to eat at home, but for Zhang Baoguo, she would ask him to send a copy to his grandparents as a token of filial piety.
When children find fish in the river, no one will stare at them, but they can't take them home in public, but this is almost acquiescence. They rely on mountains and rivers, so naturally they will occasionally have prey in their arms. But if they are all confiscated, just two fish, a few pheasants, and a few bird eggs, how will they be divided after confiscation
No matter what, everyone has a chance, depending on their ability, as long as they don't overdo it, everyone will ignore it, even the few educated youths who exist as outsiders go to the mountains and rivers to find food, as long as they don't cross the line, They also pretend they didn't see it.
Speaking of it, Zhang Baoguo was lucky, he was just playing by a small stream, it was probably raining heavily upstream, and the stream was swollen, these two fish rushed down from the upstream, and he happened to see them.
Zhang Baoguo strung the fish into the gills with vines, walked to the door of his grandfather's house, saw Zhang Jinhua squatting and playing with wood in front of the house, saw Zhang Baoguo coming, and deliberately turned his face away, as if he didn't see it.
Zhang Baoguo refused to tell him what Guan Shaoli gave their family, he still remembered it.
Afterwards, he ate the seafood made by his grandma. He swallowed the fresh seafood. His mother also said that there must be more people on their side. There are only 5 people on their side. There are 9 people here, almost two of them. After two meals, his grandma locked them in the cabinet and refused to take them out easily.
Zhang Jinhua was awkward, and Zhang Baoguo was also angry, so he ignored him and asked his cousin Zhang Fenghua, who was chopping pig grass, "Are grandparents at home? I caught two fish, and my mother asked me to send one."
As soon as he said fish, Zhang Jinhua's eyes turned around. He wrapped it in leaves, and he really didn't see it just now.
Zhang Fenghua trotted in immediately: "Yes, Baoguo sent fish."
Zhang Baoguo walked in after her.
Zhang Gen is arranging his coir raincoat, which he wore not long ago to see the situation in the field.
"Baoguo, why are you here? Is it raining?"
Zhang Gen didn't see his umbrella, not even the leaves.
Zhang Baoguo asked him to touch his clothes obediently: "I haven't taken it now, you can see that my clothes are not wet." He held up the fish in his hand: "Grandpa, I will bring you a fish. I caught it by chance by the stream. Arrived."
Zhang Gen nodded: "Do you have any at home?" He didn't think too much about a fish, but he saw the filial piety of his grandson, and he felt relieved on his face.
"Yes, I caught two, and there is another one at home."
Li Manfen came out of the kitchen shaking the water in his hands, and took his fish.
Zhang Jinhua shouted outside: "Grandma, I want to drink fish soup!"
Li Manfen responded with a smile: "Okay, I'll make fish soup later, you can stay and have dinner together." The latter words were for Zhang Baoguo.
"And your favorite capers."
Hearing this, Zhang Baoguo's face didn't change much, and he felt a little depressed. The one who likes to eat capers is obviously my uncle, okay
He never liked it. He ate it before, but there was nothing else to eat at home.
But his grandma is like this, remembering the preferences of grandpa, cousin, uncle and uncle, he often makes mistakes, he is used to it.
He refused: "No, grandma, my mother is almost done."
He said he wanted to go back, but Li Manfen didn't want to stay any longer. If there was one less person, they would be able to eat more fish. One fish from him was divided among 5 people, which was enough, and there were 9 of them.
Although the three granddaughters basically can't eat, but at this time, Li Manfen is still counted as a head.
She grabbed a handful of wild berries from the table, which she had seen picking while she was working.
"You like this too, take it back and eat it with your brother."
He couldn't help but look sideways, he didn't like to eat this kind of sweet and sour wild fruit, neither did his second brother, but his mother and the two youngest brothers both liked it.
Zhang Fenghua quite likes this kind of wild fruit, but she definitely loves fish more than fish.
If you really want to eat wild fruits, you can find them yourself, but the fish is different. Too many people want to catch them, but she can't catch them at all.
She helped him go to the back and picked a banana leaf and came back to put it on for him.
Zhao Laidi finished the work in the kitchen, came out and saw that Zhang Baoguo was about to go back, and grabbed his arm: "Baoguo, wait a minute, let me ask you, did you have a conflict with your cousin? It's been a while I saw that you didn't go out to play together."
As soon as this matter was mentioned, Zhang Baoguo and Zhang Jinhua, who had just entered the door, looked at each other, and quickly turned away, saying in unison: "No!"
Zhang Baoguo didn't want to continue talking: "Auntie, I'm going back first, it's going to rain again later."
He didn't need his aunt to tell him, he could guess what she was going to say, it was nothing more than asking him not to have conflicts with his eldest brother, he was a little spoiled by her, let him be more considerate, every time he thought of her words, Zhang Bao Guodu wants to roll his eyes, he is a younger brother, why should he show consideration for an older brother? With that skill, it's better to be more considerate and considerate of his own brother.
Zhao Laidi and Zhang Quan were very moved by the treatment of the soldiers, and thought about Zhang Jinhua and Zhang Baoguo doing exercises with Zhang Chengye, but they silently dismissed this idea when they thought of Zhang Ping's current situation.
They have only one son, no matter how much money they have, what's the use of dying
He also gave Zhang Jinhua a lot of persuasive words, so that Zhang Jinhua himself would dispel this idea.
Zhang Jinhua wants to be a soldier. That military uniform looks so good. Every time his second uncle comes back, he is so excited that he goes up and down, and because his second uncle is a soldier, his grandfather and father are all dressed up. The treasured military uniform is usually not willing to take it out to wear. It would be great if he could wear the military uniform one day, so when Zhang Baoguo was training with Zhang Chengye at that time, his parents mentioned it very much, but he wanted to be Bing's path was blocked by his parents before he even started, which made him feel uncomfortable looking at Zhang Baoguo.
Her mother not only did not object, but also supported her. His mother was so kind, why couldn't her mother be like her mother
In addition, at school at that time, he refused to tell him what the second uncle's comrade-in-arms gave him. Under the "new and old grudges", he didn't want to play with his cousin anymore.
Looking at the background of Zhang Baoguo trotting away, Zhang Jinhua raised his chin, he didn't look for him, he didn't look for me, he didn't look for him, who cares!
The timing of Zhang Baoguo's return was just right. As soon as he entered the house, it began to rain patter outside.
Zhang Weiguo brought out sweet and sour fish from the kitchen and put it on the table.
Zhang Baoguo went to wash his hands and came back, and saw his mother coming over with a pot of soup: "Mom, I forgot to mention something just now, brother Xie said that he wanted to discuss something with you, and asked when you would be free."
Su Hui poured the soup, which was soybean and seaweed soup, and Zhang Baoguo squinted his eyes and drank it in small sips enjoying himself.
"Did you say something?"
"Did not say."
Su Hui nodded, having a guess in her heart.
He also approached himself before and asked about tiles, she naturally agreed, and she also wanted to see if there was a master who could teach her, she didn't know how to burn, but ordinary tiles wouldn't be too much trouble. Disaster.
Before she could take any action, Xie Rui came to the door to ask this question.
Without hesitation, Su Hui removed this matter from her itinerary.
It is more convenient for Xie Rui to come forward. If this matter is done, it will definitely attract the attention of the villagers. In the cultivation world, she has always followed the principle of beating the first bird, keeping a low profile. interest.
As far as Xie Rui is concerned, if this is done, the improvement of his own living conditions will be one aspect, and another aspect will be a real achievement.
At that time, the people in the village will be grateful to him, and it will also help him in his future after returning to the city, so don't worry about his carelessness.
He said before that he was going to find someone, but now there should be news.
