Reborn in the 1980s, the beautiful daughter of the Xu family has to struggle

When Zheng Lanzhi said this, she looked at Xu Yuanshan.

"Master, look where to find someone to repair this house!"

Xu Yuanshan lit the pot and said with narrowed eyes.

"Don't worry about this. When I bought the house, I asked Qiangzi to help find someone. This guy has done well in the county over the years and knows many people, so I left it to him."

"Yeah, don't worry, Mom, I'll go to the house later, and the workers will probably be here soon."

When Zheng Lanzhi saw that the two men had made arrangements, she didn't ask any more questions.

Xu Jingsheng came over in the evening and specifically spoke to Xu Jingyan and Zheng Lanzhi.

"Mom, the workers said this afternoon that it only takes three days to make furniture, beds, and repair the house. There are many of them, there are more than a dozen of them, and they work very fast. In the past two days, Mom and my little sister You two prepare the bedding and other things for the bed in this house. Dad and I have discussed moving in before the end of the year."

Zheng Lanzhi didn't expect it to be so soon. She originally thought that the Chinese New Year was just a few days away and she would not be able to move in until after the New Year. She didn't expect that the two men were so anxious and wanted to move there even a year ago.

"Jingsheng, aren't you in a hurry? There are only a few days until the Chinese New Year."

Xu Jingsheng smiled.

"Mom, this is my dad's decision. You should talk to my dad! He said you should know. After all, you really don't want to see those people again. If you can avoid them this New Year, just avoid them!"

When Zheng Lanzhi heard Xu Jingsheng's words, she immediately stopped talking and nodded.

"Well, I got it, go back quickly! It's getting dark today, so be careful on the road."

Xu Jingsheng nodded and left the rental house to go back to Xujia Village. The place here was too small. Although the mother and daughter could live in the space, Xu Jingsheng didn't know the existence of the space, so she could only feel sorry for him and went there all night. Home is rushed.

Xu Jingyan saw her eldest brother leaving, then looked at her mother and said.

"Mom, you and my dad still hold a grudge against them?"

Zheng Lanzhi, who was bending over to cook, paused and smiled bitterly.

"What about holding grudges or not? It is said that they were forced to have no choice back then. The situation at that time, especially that woman was relatively strong, it was really difficult for him to choose. Although your aunt and I were the abandoned ones, although I chose in my heart I forgive them, but I can't forgive them, because if I forgive them, your aunt's death will be in vain. This is the greatest injustice to your aunt, because she had a helpless look in her eyes when she died, and I can't forget it to this day."

Xu Jingyan also sighed. Her grandfather did indeed do something wrong back then, but they did abandon her mother and aunt at that time. Her mother was only seven or eight years old at that time, and her aunt was even six years old. She was still a child, and she was When my father abandoned me, I couldn't understand the feelings I felt at that time.

"Okay, Mom, don't think about those old things. Look at how good your life is now. You have two children, your eldest brother is capable, your sister-in-law is virtuous, and your daughter is even smarter. You can enjoy the blessings in the future!"

Hearing Xu Jingyan's cheeky words, Zheng Lanzhi burst into laughter, patted Xu Jingyan's shoulder gently and said.

"Why are you so thick-skinned? I think you must have inherited your father's shamelessness. How can a girl boast about herself?"

Seeing that the sadness on her mother's face disappeared, Xu Jingyan breathed a sigh of relief. In fact, she didn't know much about this matter. She was just a niece in her last life, although she occasionally heard Xu Yuanhe and Gao Yumei chatting. When talking about the eldest aunt's family affairs, I didn't hear very detailed information. Later I went to work in the south and was rarely at home, so I knew even less about my eldest aunt.

So what I just said was just a test, but my mother still didn't say much, and I couldn't ask more questions, so as not to make my mother sad. It seemed that I could only take the time to ask my father quietly.

In the next two or three days, after selling tea eggs every day, the mother and daughter started busy buying quilts and various items needed for home. Xu Yuanshan also specifically said that they would not bring anything from Xujiacun. Maybe when I return to the village and I need it, but it’s gone, I might as well buy new things here. Anyway, I’m not short of money now.

So three days later, the new home was tidied up, everything that needed to be repaired was repaired, and all the furniture in the house was made new, and a layer of varnish was specially applied to keep the original color of the wood. In addition, it is also antiseptic.

The beds were all arranged. The east room in the north room was used as Xu Yuanshan and Zheng Lanzhi's bedroom. The middle room was the main room. The kitchen and dining room in the east wing were still the same. The southernmost room was used as Xu Jingyan's room.

The three rooms in the west wing opposite are all given to the eldest brother Xu Jingsheng. The northernmost room is the couple's bedroom, the middle room is used as a guest room, and the southern one is temporarily unused, but those are the rooms where the nephew will live when he grows up. .

The west room in the north room is used as a study room, which can also be regarded as a place where the family will study in the future.

The pool next to the pressure well in the courtyard was rebuilt with bricks, and a slope was built on it with shallow grooves drawn on it to serve as a place for washing clothes and washing clothes.

Moreover, the bottom of the pomegranate tree is surrounded by bricks, and a table and four or five stools are placed next to it. In summer, the family sits under the pomegranate tree to eat and enjoy the coolness, which is a good feeling.

On the twenty-seventh day of the twelfth lunar month, Xu Jingsheng went to Zhangjiacun to pick up her daughter-in-law. Zheng Lanzhi and Xu Jingyao mother and daughter began to buy new year's goods. In this era, there were not as many things as in later generations, so they still bought all the things they needed for the New Year every year. It's ready.

In the early morning of New Year's Eve, that is, February 1st, mother and daughter Xu Jingyan and Zheng Lanzhi got up early because their family had to cook oil today. The so-called oil cooking is fried meatballs. Crispy pork and the like, because some dishes need to be oiled in advance during the Chinese New Year, such as fish, which need to be fried first. When it is time to cook, steam it in the pot and pour the braised fish soup on top. That’s it.

Zhang Guilan was picked up by Xu Jingsheng the night before. She never knew that her husband's family had spent so much money to buy a yard in the county. Xu Jingsheng didn't tell them when she went to Yue's house.

So when Zhang Guilan rode Xu Jingsheng's bicycle borrowed from Uncle Qiang all the way to the county town, she found out that her husband's family actually bought a yard in the county town. When she entered the yard and saw the newly renovated house, I was also very happy in my heart.

It was already three or four o'clock in the afternoon after all the busy work, and it was getting dark soon. Zheng Lanzhi, Xu Jingyan and Zhang Guilan sat in the kitchen and started making dumplings.

In the evening, the family sat in the main room eating dumplings, happily waiting for the arrival of the New Year.

It wasn't until midnight that the family set off firecrackers and went back to their room to sleep.
