Twenty days are neither short nor long.
Some village chiefs spoke for Miao Li’s family everywhere, and Aunt Yu discussed their doubts with everyone. Soon, almost half of the villagers knew that because Miao Li’s family wanted to grow soybeans, they liked the plot of Yang Dalang’s family. Yang Dalang gave up the land and moved to his new land.
Of course, whether people are willing to give up voluntarily or by force depends on each person's belief. Most people believe in the version of Aunt Yu. After all, there is a house up there. In the eyes of the villagers, it is unreasonable and unimaginable to dismantle the built houses to grow crops, or to build new ones for low-priced soybeans!
And Miao Qiang, who didn't come to Yang Dalang after calling from the medical center, naturally heard about it. Finally, unable to bear it any longer, he rushed to Yang Dalang's house. A while ago, her mother told him about her family, what kind of brother and daughter, and she insisted on telling him what she liked, which made him very upset and didn't come to visit Yang Dalang.
When I came here, seeing that people and Miao He seemed to be more intimate than before, Miao Qiang sighed even more.
"Dalang, how come you didn't even tell me when such a big thing happened!? We grew up wearing the same pair of pants, when did we become so lively? Did someone talk nonsense in your ear!?"
Last time, I was rude to Miao He at the medical center, and I don't know what Miao He ruined behind his back. Miao Qiang glanced at the back room as he spoke.
After Miao He entered the house by himself, he hid in the back room. This person has a deep prejudice against him, and even when he brought tomatoes to Aunt Qing's house for delivery several times, he would be ridiculed and ridiculed. I'm at my house right now, don't see me if you don't want to.
Yang Dalang understood after reading it, his tone was slightly dark, "Qianzi, I said, don't do this again."
Miao Qiang said with a strange yin and yang, "What's wrong with me, I can't even ask two questions now? Come to you, I'm like a bad person. I don't know if the descendants of marriage can even change their personalities. My dear thing forced me, and I was afraid to die."
Skip the cynicism, Yang Dalang said seriously, "It's a good thing to choose carefully."
This sentence somehow stimulated Miao Qiang, and people became excited. "Choose well, pick someone like your brother? Do you know, I don't know if I should tell you or not, just when you were injured, someone saw Brother He and went to the town to see Miao Yuan! It's a loss! His aunt also praised him for knowing how to sell vegetables to support his family, but in the end, he is still a virtue!"
Yang Dalang explained, "Second Aunt is also there."
"Ha, even if your second aunt is here, isn't it a meeting? Who knows if he chose to wait for his sweetheart on purpose? Can you guarantee that he has no such thoughts in his heart? He can use this method now. To hide it from you, to be open and upright and to be connected with others, isn't it more despicable and insidious?"
Yang Dalang didn't pause, "He won't, I believe him."
"You believe him? That's why you don't believe me!?" Miao Qiang was even more exasperated, "Well, it seems that my trip today is superfluous! Now you can't listen to the words of my brother, it's all self-indulgent! However, I will not give up, and when the evidence is found, you will always know how good my brother is!"
The two broke up again.
Miao He, who was so busy turning around, didn't have time to worry about what was on his back.
Now he has to deliver the dishes on time, and he has to deliver mung bean cakes every three days. One time, this cake was brought home by the unfortunate member Liang who was banqueting guests in the teahouse, and ate it in the mouths of his wife and Hutou. It can be imagined after the incident. So I got another business, and in the end, just like delivering vegetables, it would be good to send Liangfu together.
Fortunately, the heavy work of making mung bean cakes, such as mashed beans and stir-frying, are all done by Yang Dalang, and Miao He only needs to supervise the seasoning. Otherwise, in the long run, his thin arm will definitely be half abolished.
In addition, during this month, there is another heavy workload, which is to be responsible for feeding the living people on the construction site.
The workers hired this time are from Li Ming's own class, and they are not from the village. Naturally, they sleep here and eat here. She slept in a makeshift dormitory, and the class handled it herself. But for the eating part, there are no fast food restaurants these days, but there are wages. So by convention, it has to come from the Miao He family.
So Miao He watched the workers gobble up on the construction site every day.
"Little brother, how did you cook this dish!? How can you cook it so deliciously every day!! And this rice!! Mother, I have built so many big houses, and I have never eaten such fragrant rice. !!"
Miao He could only smirk. He just watched these people hurry up and work diligently without being sneaky, so he used the soil in the old house to pick up bags of rice and a few handfuls of vegetables, mixed with some ordinary ones, and made up for it.
"Yeah! It's obviously not meaty, so how can I be so happy!? I obviously don't like vegetables!? I must be starving, I'm in a hurry this time! I'm tired! It's over, I have to have another bowl!!"
"Fat boy, you're tired! Are you doing it at the same speed as before!? It doesn't count how many bowls you've eaten! You won't be killed by eating any more!"
Miao He was embarrassed to hear people shouting tired. "Maybe I'll make more meat next meal. This dish will be less..."
"No no no!!! This dish is good! This dish is good!!"
"Don't talk nonsense, fat boy! Shut up and eat your meal quietly!!"
"Ah? But if the meat dishes are also delicious..."
While speaking, Miao He received several expectant and reserved eyes. Yang Dalang had previously cleaned up the pheasants caught on the mountain, so there were not many left.
And this kind of coming and going, because of the close distance between the food, Miao He and the work class have gotten to know each other a lot. Miao He also invited Li Ming and the others to eat mung bean cake, which was iced, and said that it was for the tea house. It was not a problem to make a few more points. But the workers who have never eaten such delicate food, eat it carefully, and I feel very comforted!
As a result, some small places that were originally omitted due to lack of budget, such as the stained window fence and even the hooks and drip tiles on the roof, were quietly upgraded when Miao He and the others did not know it. Anyway, the foreman is the boss, and the boss said he was happy to eat and would like to give it away! The workers are also happy to cooperate.
One day, the workers were taken aback by Yang Dalang.
Because Yang Dalang actually carried a plum tree from the mountain alone! ! A whole one! With roots and leaves! Although the tree is not too big, there are some fruits hanging on it. It is a mature tree. As soon as it was carried down the mountain, the movement caused the construction site workers to gather around to ask.
"Brother Yang, why are you still carrying this tree? Do you want to plant it?"
"Yes. The new house is open, plant some trees to provide shade."
"How heavy is that! Just go out and buy saplings. It's so tidy, and if you put a lot of effort into carrying it back, you may not be able to survive. You are really strong! It's definitely suitable for you to work on the beams!"
"If you have it in the mountains, try it."
"Ah, even so, Brother Yang can talk about it first. We have a trolley for transporting lumber, and I'll let you drag it up next time. Don't carry it, it will save a lot of effort!"
"Thank you. Borrow it next time."
Li Ming happened to stroll over and interjected, "I want to plant a tree!? Come, come, I'll tell you how to plant it! The sun can't be wrong, and don't cover the land that should be sunbathing. Come, you first Tell me what tree you want to plant, and I'll help you see the details..."
Although the topic was diverted, Miao He's heart was completely moved.
How could he not know that the tree that Yang Dalang carried was to cover his soil.
Before Yang Dalang went out this time, Miao He remembered the previous time he went up the mountain, so he mentioned one more thing and asked if the plums on the mountain had already bear fruit. With this question, Yang Dalang naturally heard that what people want is the seeds in the fruit. If there are seeds, they can use the soil to replant the trees.
But if the barren wasteland that has been renovated emerges out of nothing, and a perfect tree suddenly appears, it must be suspicious. Such an upright person who carried the tree down from the mountain, how to use the soil to plant it in the future, can also have this excuse in front of people.
... But how heavy is this tree!
They don't have much budget on hand to buy saplings, but they can take it slow, they don't need to be in such a hurry.
Miao He was both annoyed and moved. At night, when he rubbed people's shoulders from behind, he said, "You don't have to do this. It hurts your body. Nothing compares to your body. Don't do such stupid things again!"
"Don't force it. Next time I will carry the peach tree."
"I said no need!"
"Peach trees have small ones."
"No, no, no!"
"Pear trees have smaller ones."
When Miao He wanted to slap Yang Dalang's face with a slap, he turned to the person, but found a clear smile in Yang Dalang's eyes. "... Make me anxious, are you happy!?"
"En." The little brother looks good whether he frowns for himself or smiles for himself.
Miao He hit someone. "Seriously, don't carry it. Just hide this one."
Yang Dalang only said this time, "If we don't go up the mountain, we have to demolish the house."
Miao He was stunned for a moment, and couldn't help but look around. "It turns out that it's time to demolish it, I'm really reluctant to think about it." After all, I live in a familiar house. There are many interesting and precious memories in this house. For example, accidentally dropped the soil on the ground, accidentally planted the green onion, and many unique memories between the two.
Yang Dalang slowed down, "It's good to have you."
It sounded quite warm, but while saying that Yang Dalang had pushed Miao He down on the bed, his hands were all under his clothes.
Miao He's face turned red. The action lines are matched, and they are really full of color, "What are you talking about?"
But later, Miao He forgot about this.
Waves of heat swept over immediately, and Miao He could only drown in it.
At this time, Da Bai, who was outside the door, was also nestling on the soft cushion at the corner of the main room, shaking his ears, not surprised by the movement behind the door.
It yawned slowly, spending its last night in the house as usual.
—
Yang Dalang started demolishing the house three days before the moving deadline. Everything that should be moved has been moved.
Even the original dishes were moved to new vegetable plots. Cheating with Xiyuan, you don't have to worry about making mistakes.
Destruction is always faster than construction, and in just three days, the earthen house within the wall was leveled. Even the soil of the vegetable field was fertilized by the fertilizer planted in the soil. Miao He didn't want anyone to find the abnormality, so he shoveled it up. In the pit outside the courtyard, which was used as a blindfold, the fat inside was also sprinkled onto the new vegetable field.
After the house was demolished, it was impossible for the new house to be completed so quickly. During the short period of time, Miao He and Yang Dalang temporarily lived in Aunt Yang's house.
Soon came the day when the promise was handed over.
