Chapter 65 Separate the Two Places
It was the end of Shenshi when the carriage entered Pingyang County, it was already dark, and the city gate would be closed in half an hour.

The temperature is really low, especially after the sun goes down.Wang Sen drove Wu Zuo home first, and as for Li Hui, he could still fight for it.

"Call-"

Wang Sen reined in the reins, looked at Li Hui, raised his eyebrows and asked:
"Are you sure you don't want to go? You don't have anything in this house. Don't freeze the children. It's too cold today."

"It's all right, everything is there." Li Hui declined again, "When I left, I asked Yang Ya to take care of it, and I guess it would be enough to light the fire. Bring the things to Master Pan for me, and we will go back by car after we finish our work tomorrow."

He is really worried about letting his wife and children stay at home.

Seeing that he had made up his mind, Wang Sen decided to drive away after thinking about it.

Instead of wasting time, it's better to find a restaurant and order some food for them.

He took out the key to open the door, and the three of them entered the house.

Li Heng yelled "Wow -" and wandered around.

He already knew that his father and mother bought a house in the county. Although it is not as big as the yard at home, this is the county! He always heard people in the village say that his family is rich, but he had no idea before, but now...it seems to be true. !
In the county, every inch of land is expensive, and if you buy a house, you can buy a house. With such a wealthy family, he has to study hard.

"Tie Dan, there is a warehouse over there, go with your brother and see if there is any firewood?"

"Got it, Dad."

While talking, Li Heng went to the warehouse with Yan Yixin. After the two entered, there was nothing in front of them.

"Brother, will we be cold at night?"

It's very cold today, he doesn't want to come to the county to catch a cold again, the water his mother boiled for Sidan is too bitter, he doesn't want to drink it.

Yan Yixin didn't speak, and led him back to the main room.Seeing a bundle of firewood in the outhouse, he opened his mouth sullenly:
"Uncle, there is no firewood in the warehouse, do you want me to go out with Tie Dan to buy some?"

Uh……

Fine.Li Hui understood that he was too idealistic.

Yang Chong did help look after the house, but he wouldn't come every day.He took out a piece of broken silver and handed it to him.

"Take Tie Dan out to buy firewood, and by the way, set up the paper work for going to the grave tomorrow. You don't need to bring it back, just go to the store to pick it up when you leave tomorrow. I will burn the house at home, and when you come back, we will go out for dinner. Remember, firewood Buy more. If you are sick, your aunt will not let me go."

Yan Yixin couldn't help laughing, took the money and nodded heavily.

"Don't worry uncle, I will definitely buy more firewood."

Finally had a chance to go over and have a look, just in time for Li Heng to pick and choose, to see what he likes.

Just when he was dreaming——

"Tomorrow is the day when your father will burn for a hundred days. If I guess correctly, there should be many eyes watching in the city. If you don't want to be a pauper, you can take your iron egg to the streets to show off."

"...I, I see." Yan Yixin finished talking sullenly, then turned and went out.

Sure enough, Jiang was still old and hot, and he didn't show any expression, so he guessed right.

Li Hui lighted the fire without worry, filled the cauldron with water, and then went into the house to burn the kang.

The two kang holes in the kang were lit, and there was the sound of knocking on the door outside.

I thought it was the two children coming back, but I didn't expect——

"Where are Brother Xin and Tie Dan? Did you go shopping for food?"

Li Hui turned his head when he heard the sound, saw that it was Wang Sen with a food box in his hand, and instantly understood.

"I didn't buy any food. You have to give it away as soon as I think about it, so let them buy firewood."

"You really know how to put gold on your face." Wang Sen curled his lips angrily.

Looking at the room full of smoke everywhere, he frowned speechlessly.

"I said don't bother, go to my house to make do with a night, it's not that you can't live."

"No need." Li Hui still insisted, pointing to the firewood and ordered, "Help me go to the backyard to light the chimney. It's so cold that I can't smoke."

"You are really good at instigating people while delivering food and doing nothing."

Wang Sen complained, but his body honestly picked up the firewood and went to the backyard to light a fire.

Sure enough, when the chimney was burnt, the smoke in the house became less.After finishing his work, Wang Sen was afraid of being assigned another job, so he said "Let's go" and left without looking back.

Li Hui pursed his lips, at first he wanted him to help wipe the kang, but now he can only rely on himself.Before leaving, I specially put some bedding, rags and so on here, and they are just usable now.

After wiping the kang, boil the water in the pot, and put all the plates and bowls left by the owner in it to cook, as well as chopsticks.

After working for almost half an hour, the two boys still haven't come back, which made Li Hui very anxious.

I thought of many possibilities in my mind, and I also thought of many ways to deal with it.Just when he was about to find someone, the two children finally came back.

There was a man behind him, with firewood on both ends of the load.

"Father, we're back. Firewood is really expensive in the county. A bundle costs ten cents."

The man laughed when he heard the words, and softly argued:

"Little baby, is it expensive to sell ten cents in such a cold day?"

"Why is it not expensive? We cut down the mountain behind our village at will."

Yan Yixin pointed the man in the direction, and then explained to Li Hui:

"We went late, and there was no firewood in many places. I bought it at a grocery store in the south of the city, far away from the river."

"It's okay, just come back, is it cold?"

"It's cold, it feels colder than in the village." Yan Yixin replied.

After the man left, Li Hui took the children into the house.The house that has been burned for a long time is not as cold as before, and the kang is also warm.

A bundle of firewood costs ten cents, which is indeed a little expensive, but there are a lot of scorpions in it, and kang holes are added at night to resist burning.

During the meal, Li Heng chatted about his experience in buying firewood.It was his first time in the county, so everything he saw was new.

"...Father, the paper-making shop here is huge, even bigger than the old Ma's house in our town. It must be as big as three."

Li Hui listened to all kinds of "big" in his mouth, and finally couldn't stand it:
"Tie Dan, eat."

Li Heng said "Oh" and lowered his head to eat.Just now it seemed...it should...maybe a little noisy.

When the room became quiet, Li Hui kept picking up food for the two children.Sensing Yan Yixin's depressed mood, she knew that she was missing her father.

He didn't know Yan Dawei, nor did he understand Yan Dawei.But the bravery of a man who can raise a baby independently without looking for his wife after leaving is really admirable.

After the meal, the three of them simply washed and rested on the kang.

One second, Li Heng was still lamenting the excitement of the county, and the next second, he heard the sound of steady breathing, which could be called a second of sleep.

After a tiring afternoon, Li Hui was really tired to be honest, but Li Hui couldn't fall asleep, the pancakes were tossed and turned, and Cheng Xue and the children at home were all on his mind.

Since the two of them came here, apart from going to work during the day, it was the first time that they separated the two places for rest at night.

I don't know what's going on at home, whether the woman is obedient and hangs up the door.

Just as he was thinking, there was a sobbing sound beside him.Li Hui turned his back to him, with mixed emotions in his heart.

Maybe this is the difference between a man and a woman. If Cheng Xue heard him cry, she would definitely comfort him.And he just quietly accompanied him, waiting for the child to digest by himself...
