Riding a donkey back to 60s

Even if you are in a hurry, now that Xia Ye and Xia's mother are both injured, you can't rush too much. You can only carry out the process of repairing the house according to Li Dashan's time.

When I first started to repair the house, some uncles and uncles carried straws to the east house to replace the straws on the roof early in the morning before going to work.

Get up early every summer night and use the space to dig out the yellow mud from the back mountain, add gravel and yellow mud with straw, wormwood, etc. Fill the inside with the reconciled three-in-one mud, smooth the top, remove the abrasive, and it is an adobe.

Because there are many people who come to work, and they are all very efficient. Although they can only start work at noon and night, they only took three days to replace the roof. After that, only a few bricklayers were left behind. The uncle wiped the walls like checking for gaps in the corners of the house.

Xia Ye got the approval slip, borrowed Li Dashan's axe, picked some scented trees that could last for a long time from the forest near the mother tree, cut down dozens of them, put them in the space, and people left every night They put them all in the east yard, cut off the branches and piled them up for firewood, leaving only the logs for middle use.

One day, seeing more and more round logs, some uncles said sourly: "Yeba, you can't use so much wood after rebuilding this house!"

Faced with the joke, Xia Ye rolled her eyes and hurriedly replied: "My mother said, build more furniture, there is nothing in this room, every room has a few cabinets and benches, and in a few years I will have to get married , get it all ready, so you can save yourself a lot of work when the time comes!" But we can't let everyone have any other thoughts.

Everyone coaxed in good faith when they heard the marriage, but they all thought about it, isn't it the reason?Now that everything is ready, it will save a lot of effort. Besides, if the orphans and widows don't take advantage of the conditions and have someone to help them prepare quickly, it will be difficult to say in the future.

The uncles felt sorry for the loneliness of the mother and the son, and because they gave money and gave it fairness, they reorganized the kangs in a few extra houses, and added an extra fire wall in the main room, so that they could easily get three or four below zero. It will be warmer and more comfortable to live in the winter of ten degrees.Xia Ye is very grateful for this, and specially set up the rabbits to share some stewed meat with each family! After working so hard for half a month, not long after the stitches were removed on Xia Ye's head, the new house was finally packed, just need to take a break You can move in it with a lime flavor. It looks similar to a newly built one from the outside. Although it can’t be compared with a brick and tile house, the golden nest and silver nest are not as good as your own doghouse. If you don't leave, you have a title deed.And this means that Xia Ye also has her own independent living space, so she doesn't have to squeeze into the same kang with Xia's mother, and it will be much more convenient to communicate with Xiaobai.

It will take some time for Li Jianguo's furniture to be ready, but the yard has been neatly repaired.Now the firewood shed beside the kitchen has also been built. When cutting wood from the mountain, Xia Ye took the opportunity to gather a lot of firewood and put it in the space, and now it has been moved to the firewood shed little by little.There are pigpens and chicken coops in the backyard. Although it is vacant now, after moving in, Xia's mother said that she would raise more livestock to increase her income.Every day when I wake up, Xia Ye is busy adding new things to the house, picking up some suitable stones when carrying water from the river, and laying stones on the road from the gate to each house, so that it will be tidy even if it rains.

I bought a large stone mill with a diameter of about one meter from the home of Uncle Xu, a stonemason in the village, so that the family does not have to go to the village brigade to grind grain.With the stone mill, the processed food in the space can also be covered.What's more important is that people grind grain very rough now, and they hardly grind it finely twice or three times before separating out the chaff, because the grain distributed by each family is not enough, and if it is divided, it will cause more loss.Now that he is grinding grain at home, Xia Ye has plenty of strength, so he can grind it a few more times, so that he won't eat such throat-sucking food, let alone let people know his current strength and be treated as a monster.

Some trees were dug from the mountain and planted in the yard to enjoy the shade.In addition to the furniture made of wood, an additional set of tables and chairs were built and placed under the tree to enjoy the shade. Although it has not been put into use yet, it will be very comfortable and cool after looking at it.In my heart, this is the first home in my past and present life. There is a family member, Mother Xia, who is not alone. Although there is a lack of supplies, it satisfies the lack of family affection in the previous life.So put all your thoughts into building a home that is poor but full of warmth.

When the study group returned to their hometown, Xia Ye and Xia Laoshuan were taken by the secretary Zhao Shutian to divide their household registrations.Afterwards, the move began. There were no pots and pans, only two quilts, plus a dowry cabinet, which could be moved by Li Dashan and Xia Ye in one go.

In this way, in June, Xia Ye took Xia's mother and moved quietly, which was silent to the old Xia's family.To the outside world, I only informed Aunt Wang next door that Li Dashan and his wife came to warm up the house. It would be troublesome to invite those who are orphans and widows who are not familiar with them. Aunt Wang brought two sea bowls as gifts, and Li Dashan brought some clay pots. , pottery knives, used as temporary pots, there is no way, it is too difficult to get industrial coupons in the countryside, and a big pot needs 20 industrial coupons, and they must not expire, it is not easy to raise, it depends on the opportunity.

The rice at the bottom of the simmering pot is boiled wild pork stew, and pumpkin, potatoes, and beans are added to it, because the private land has just been divided, and there are no vegetables. These are Li Dashan and the others from home. Although they are simple, they are summer It is the most comfortable meal my mother has eaten for more than ten years. You can sit at the main table, eat with peace of mind, and be able to have a full meal. This may be happiness.

Without the furniture, it was empty and nothing to see.Aunt Wang went home after eating, and Li Dashan and his wife stayed behind and talked about the little wild boar they had hunted before.Because the little wild boar came back late, it was marinated and treated as cured meat. Because of the loss of moisture, it was sold at a price of RMB 45 per catty, which was slightly higher than that of fresh meat. After all, it cost a lot. I sold about 22.5 catties of salt and got [-] yuan. Half of the family Li Dashan gave Xiamu [-] yuan as agreed, and took the rest back for Xiamu and Xiaye to cook and eat.

Xia Ye considered that the fields in the space had no seeds, so they only planted sweet potatoes and potatoes. This was propagated from the tubers stolen by Xia's mother when she was cooking at the old Xia's house. At present, there are already a lot of reserves in the space. , but nothing else.

Taking advantage of Li Dashan's presence, Xia Ye looked at Li Dashan and said, "Uncle Dashan, can you give me some vegetable seeds?"

Li Dashan questioned: "If you want to eat any food, just go to the uncle's land to pick it!"

Xia Ye said and shook his head: "Uncle Dashan, then my family's private land will be deserted! If your family has it, you can borrow it from me first. I don't have anything in this house. I will see if I can grow some vegetables and share it with the outside city. I don’t even have soap at home!” Soap is also a rare item, and soap coupons are used to buy it at supply and marketing cooperatives.

Li Dashan thought for a while, and there should be some at home, so he went back: "What are you borrowing, I'll just bring it to you! There should be some, but I don't know what else, you take it to my house."

As he said that, he took Xia Ye home directly, because Xia Ye's house was busy recently, and Li Dashan and Li Sen brothers also helped a lot, and they became more familiar with each other, and greeting each other was more casual .

Xiao Shitou looked at Xia Ye coming: "Brother Ye, have you finished moving?" Because they were afraid that Xia Ye's mother and child would not have enough food, Li Dashan and his wife did not take their children to burn the bottom of the pot.

"Well, we've finished moving, come and play if you have time, and sister Liqiu!" Xia Ye invited, and smiled at Li Liqiu who was drying clothes over there.

Li Dashan said to his daughter: "Second girl, go and get some vegetable seeds for Yewa, Yewa needs to plant a quarter of the private plot."

Li Liqiu agreed to go to the main room, then came out and handed a small cloth bag to Xia Ye: "Ye baby, my father asked me to give these to you, and I wrapped a small bag for you, and marked the name with a pen. When will the private plot be planted, I will help!"

Xia Ye took it with a smile: "The relationship is good, so I will trouble Sister Liqiu, and I will plant it the day after tomorrow. I will turn the ground first!"

Li Liqiu nodded: "Then I will go there the day after tomorrow!"

After returning from Li Dashan's house, Xia Ye thought about spending more than 100 yuan to repair the house, and now he has more than 90 yuan left in his hand. He has food in his hand and doesn't panic. Xia Ye wants to discuss hunting with Xia's mother, and then get some money.

Watching Xia's mother cooking porridge, Xia Ye took over the work of lighting the fire, sat on the small bench, and filled some firewood from time to time: "Mother, I want to go hunting in the back mountain tomorrow!"

Xia's mother was stunned when she heard it: "Yeba, our family has enough food until the autumn harvest. At that time, the new food will be distributed. There is no shortage of food. Why do you want to go hunting? I don't allow it! It's too dangerous Already!"

Xia Ye hurriedly said: "Mother, I won't go to the deep mountains. I feel that since I came back from the mother forest, my strength has improved. If you think about it, I can lift a big water tank that day, so let me go! At home It's a bit meaty to make up for both of us, you see we are all skinny. I want to grow up!"

Xia's mother listened silently for a while: "Yewa, I'm sorry for you! It's all because of your mother's uselessness! I've always wondered, did your strength come out suddenly?"

Xia Ye could only nod her head, it couldn't be said that it was Xiaobai's credit!Mother Xia followed Xia Ye with a serious face and said: "Then you go back to the house with me, Mother has something for you!"

Xia's mother took out a dressing box from the cabinet in the suite where she lived, and Xia Ye didn't remember it either.Mother Xia took out a delicate key from her neck, opened the dressing box, and took out a satin cloth-wrapped item from inside, opened the package layer by layer, and unfolded a book, written in traditional characters on the pages, before Xia Ye look carefully.

Mother Xia handed the book to Xia Ye: "I won't stop you from hunting. You should practice carefully the things in this book. It was passed down from mother's mother's family. It is only passed on to daughters. It is just an explanation to the younger generation. If you are as strong as a bull, let her practice, and you don’t need to interfere with your family’s development in the future. Now the book will be passed on to you.” Xia’s mother seemed to be slightly hurt, and rubbed the pages of the book a few times, she didn’t know whether this decision was right or wrong.Let Xia Ye go back to the house, and she also wants to be quiet.

Xia Ye took the book back to her room, leaned on the kang, read the title of the book Nourishing Qi Jue, it contained some tricks for sleeping, some postures and movements for morning exercises every morning, and some drawings. The things on the Internet are somewhat similar, but when you turn to the last page, this decision is only for women with special physiques to practice, and the practice of immature women will stop the development of female characteristics, etc., changing the female body, Xia Ye is confused, the female version Sunflower Collection? ! Xia Ye is full of doubts about Xia's mother's natal family. I have never been to her mother's house since I was a child. I only think that Xia's mother may be an orphan. It seems that there must be some stories here. . .

Xia Ye called Xiao Bai, and Xiao Bai woke up from his sleep, moaning and whimpering in displeasure: "Ye Wazi, if you wake me up without something special, I will get you ten catties of meat to eat in one go." ...my dream, my big red flower!"

"Okay, stop howling, look at this!" Xia Ye spread the book on the table for Xiaobai to read.

Xiaobai flipped over with his right hoof, and when he finished reading the whole story, he said with an incredulous expression: "Why is this similar to the adult transformation technique in our clan? Our donkey clan has the adult transformation technique, and we make our first partner when we become adults." You can choose to practice or not to practice, the combination of the hatchback is voluntary, but the transmutation technique is only for the combination between lovers, this has the effect of deceiving the sky and strengthening the body, the person who created this is amazing! You humans are not all like you Weak chicken!"

Xia Ye's face was full of black lines: "You can continue to sleep, I practiced!"

Xiaobai kicked his hooves loudly: "Yewa, don't worry about it! You don't want to find a man?"

Xia Ye's dark lines are densely covered: "I will never look for a boy!" Think about the boy in the orphanage, he is not as good at study, and he is not as good at work. She is amazing, every time she protects Xiaocong, she is fighting wits and bravery with those brats, and she has the feeling of protecting the world, so forgive her for being partial and indifferent to men. . .

"In this world, relying on oneself is still the most secure. Now that male chauvinism is rampant, forget it. If you touch a weak chicken, the chicken skin will rise up. If you are lucky, maybe I can save a crush... "Xia Ye replied to Xiaobai happily, but she didn't want her words to come true. This is a later story.

Fortunately, there is a foundation of ancient culture research, and all kinds of terms in it can be clearly understood. After half an hour of practice, I seem to have gained something, I just feel that my ears and eyes are clearer.

During dinner, Mother Xia asked Xia Ye: "Have you practiced yet?"

Xia Ye nodded and returned: "I feel pretty good after practicing."

Mother Xia replied: "Yeah! Yeba, you don't regret it. I also have some considerations for letting you pretend to be a boy since you were a child. Besides, this is a secret of the Wang family. I will tell you when you grow up. Practice hard. Don't let people find out!" I didn't talk to Xia Ye about the extra words.

Although Xia Ye wanted to know more, but obviously Xia's mother wouldn't say it, and Xia Ye didn't mention it again. The two of them silently thought about their own concerns, and went back to their rooms to rest without mentioning it.
