The fool has become a spirit, and she can speak

"Daughter-in-law, what happened?"

The fifth sister-in-law looked at the things she had brought and said, "I can't explain it in one sentence or two. Please help me put these things away first, otherwise it will get in the way."

"Go, go, go."

As soon as Cheng Feng left, Li Laowu happily delivered the things his wife had brought to the side house. His wife had only been to the city a few times and had never seen anything. She looked at the house where Li Laowu lived and said: "Here How well do we live? This is a big brick house."

Li Laowu nodded and said, "Don't live here for nothing. Help everyone with work every day."

She said with bright eyes: "I know, I definitely can't live here in vain."

Li Laowu was worried about others, but he was very relieved about his wife. He said: "Let's not pack things away for now. Let's go to the noodle shop and I will get you something to eat."

She nodded. The aroma in the noodle shop just now made her stomach growl. She hadn't eaten for a day. She looked at the bowl of noodles in front of her and started eating. Li Laowu said, "It's delicious."

She nodded and whispered, "This side smells so good."

Li Laowu said: "There is a recipe for this noodle."

"What recipe?"

"Don't ask if you shouldn't. Tell me how your house is doing."

Sister-in-law Wu wiped away her tears and cried, "The roof is gone."

Seeing that his daughter-in-law was too sad to eat, he comforted her and said, "It's okay. Let's eat first and make some money next year to repair the house."

In this way, the fifth sister-in-law settled down with Cheng Feng.

Cheng Feng and Chen Qingliao went to the butcher shop. They had to buy some pork for such a simple thing, otherwise they would be laughed at by the villagers. They also went to buy some grain and seasonings.

Cheng Feng often goes out to buy things, so he knows where the cheapest things are. People who know him will give some discounts. This trip saved the Li family some money.

According to the list in Chen Qingliao's hand, he bought everything without landing. When he returned to Lao Li's house, it was almost dark.

The yard is filled with white lanterns. As the cold wind blows, the lanterns flicker. These are hand-made by the old people in the village with white paper. Together with the cold wind, it gives people an eerie feeling. Fortunately, there were many people in the courtyard, otherwise it would be a bit scary.

In the yard next to the warehouse, Chen Qingsheng and a few people were making coffins. There was no place to block the wind. Everyone's hands were red from the cold. Cheng Feng didn't know what kind of wood they used. It felt like elm. Every board The surface has been smoothed by everyone using planes. Chen Qingsheng had a pen on his ear. At this time, a pair of red hands were touching the pen on his ear. He looked at the wood in his hand and put the pen down again. I guess I didn't measure it properly.

Everyone gave the white cloth they bought to the old people in the village. Several old people wiped their tears and muttered: "The Chinese New Year will be coming soon, why did this happen?"

The white cloth was in their hands, and it was ready with just a few scissors. The filial sons and grandsons of the Li family all wore white filial piety shirts, and some close relatives also wore them, but what they wore was different from the old man's immediate relatives. It was much simpler. Everyone was moved by the scene, and there was a lot of crying in the courtyard. Maybe they were crying for the two elderly people of the Li family who had just passed away, or maybe they were mourning their deceased relatives in their hearts. The atmosphere was extremely depressed for a while.

There is a strict rule in the village that a dead person must be kept in the yard for three days before being buried, and the villagers must be provided with a meal every day.

Those with better conditions can do fine, but those without money can't afford three meals in three days.

In order to eat and drink together, many people would come over to have a meal together. Liu Dalan and the others were like this. The food they went to the city to buy hadn't come back yet, so Liu Dalan had already brought the whole family here to wait for dinner.

When Liu Dalan's little daughter saw Cheng Feng coming back, she ran over, raised her head and said, "Uncle, do you still have popsicles at home?"

Cheng Feng looked at his niece who was blushing a little and nodded, knowing that her niece was asking for a popsicle from him.

"Can you give me a few more? My sister ate all the ones you gave me last time, so I didn't get a few."

Cheng Feng couldn't refuse such a big child. After all, it was his eldest brother's child. Even if he was angry with his eldest brother, he couldn't involve such a young child. "I'll get some for you later."

Looking at Cheng Feng who was about to leave, she grabbed Cheng Feng's pants and said, "I'll go home with you to get it. It's too cold here."

Obviously Liu Dalan brought them here to eat, but it was still a long time before dinner, and they wouldn't be able to eat for a while.

Looking at the frozen child, Cheng Feng said, "You go home first and come back when it's time to eat."

The little niece shook her head and said, "My mother said that if you come late, there will be no place to sit."

Cheng Feng sighed inwardly. For a person like Liu Dalan, maybe just for a copper coin, the five members of his family would have to eat here for three days. This person is not generally thick-skinned, but people like this in the village Not a few.

Seeing his niece reaching out to him, Cheng Feng had no choice but to pick her up, then walked to Boss Cheng and said, "Brother, I want some popsicles in my pocket. I'll take her back to get some popsicles."

Boss Cheng smiled naively and said, "Go ahead."

Then he told his family's wallet: "You must listen to your brother-in-law."

The worst characters in his family are Liu Dalan and his eldest daughter. They are both arrogant, domineering and arrogant. To put it bluntly, they are mean, mean and unreasonable, and they annoy everyone who sees them.

Cheng Feng wanted to put her purse in the carriage car to protect it from the wind, but she refused, "Uncle, I'm afraid of the dark."

Cheng Feng thought about it. It was dark inside the car, and a child of this age would definitely be scared, so he had to put his purse next to him.

Soon Cheng Feng returned home with his wallet. As soon as he opened the door, a rush of hot air hit his face. Cheng Feng took off his coat. After the coldness on his body was gone, he went to the room to see Xiaosha and his son.

The son was sleeping, and Xiaosha was looking at something at the table. Cheng Feng knew that it was a drawing he couldn't understand without going there.

When Xiao Sha saw Cheng Feng coming back, he said happily: "You came back quite quickly. Yuhua and I have already eaten first, but I left you a drawer of dumplings in the pot. It will take more than ten minutes to burn some firewood." .”

Cheng Feng looked at his son and said, "I'll go to the kitchen to light the fire myself. You can do your thing."

Xiaosi stood up and said, "Have a rest, I'll steam dumplings for you."

Xiaosi was obviously in a good mood, and Cheng Feng naturally knew why she was happy.

Cheng Feng blocked Xiaosi and said, "Just rest, I can steam it myself."

The fool felt that Cheng Feng was a bit weird. The more he refused to let her go out, the more she wanted to go out. She followed Cheng Feng. As soon as she left the room, she saw a child sitting on a chair, and then shouted at her. : "Auntie."

The fool asked Cheng Feng: "Why is she here?"

Cheng Feng touched his nose and told the story. The fool didn't say anything and had to go to the kitchen to steam dumplings for Cheng Feng.

When Cheng Feng saw this, he sat on the small stool that made the fire, lit the fire, and the fool brought the minced garlic and soy sauce to the table.

When Cheng Feng saw that the fool hadn't said a word for a long time, he stood up and said, "How about I send my wallet to Lao Li's house first? I'll probably have dinner there soon."

The fool didn't know when the big pot of rice would be ready. She said to Cheng Feng, "I won't do it next time."

Cheng Feng pulled the fool to sit on his lap. He sat back on the fire-burning bench again and said with a smile: "There will never be a next time." Cheng Feng knew that the fool did not want to have any contact with his eldest brother's family. Such an attitude already gives him face.

After a while, the steaming dumplings came out of the pot. The two people brought the dumplings to the table. Then Cheng Feng took the bag and put it on the chair.

Looking at the dumplings on the table, the dumplings were all wet, mainly because the fragrance was so fragrant. Cheng Feng filled her with some soy sauce and ate the dumplings.

This child looked like she was six or seven years old, but she was quite capable of eating. She ate seventeen dumplings by herself. These dumplings were stuffed with donkey meat. They were not small in size. Such a small child could digest so much. , but Xiaosha didn’t say anything, as if he couldn’t bear to give her dumplings.
