The fierce wife of space

Chapter 20 Almighty Man

Gu Lian greeted the young man next door, went up to the roof, looked at the weeds growing all over the roof, exhaled, moved her body and lay down on the roof to start weeding, Wang looked down at her on the roof. He looks so frightened that he can't do anything.

"Alian, be careful and watch your feet."

"Mother, I'm busy with you, don't worry about me." Gu Lian was very fast, first pulled out the grass in the middle, and put all the messed up tiles back to their original places.

After pulling out all the weeds in the yard, it was already an hour. After taking a rest, I wiped all the dust in the house with a rag. The previous owner still left a lot of furniture here. They don't have to spend money on additional furniture for a while.

When the smoke rose from the town, Gu Lian and the others finally finished their work. Looking at the brand-new house, it felt like it was worth a tael of silver per month.

"You guys rest, mother is going to cook in the kitchen." Wang also gained strength, because now she finally has a home.

Gu Lian was not idle, looking at the broken window, the paper on it was all holes, there was no way to use it at all, the weather is cold now, the window is windy at night, and the inside of the house is freezing cold, it doesn't matter if you stay for a day, stay here I had to catch a cold for the past few days.

"Azhu, come here, let me go to the street to buy some things, mother, you rest and don't be busy cooking, I will go and buy some things and come back." There is food in the bag, but these things are all some fruits And so on, they have to buy some coarse grains, how long have they not eaten grains in their stomachs.

Mrs. Wang felt sorry for the money, but seeing the thin faces of all the family members, she gritted her teeth and took out three hundred Wen from her hand.

"A-Lian, keep this money, and don't be reluctant to spend it if you have something to buy."

"Mom, I still have money here, you can keep it! Let's go!" Gu Lian shook her head with a smile, and pulled her younger brother out of the house.

The two went to the street. There were not many people on the street at this time. Gu Lian took her younger brother into the grain store. First, she bought ten catties of coarse grains. Then she met a steamed bun seller and picked up another ten steamed buns. I also bought some seasonings in the shop, but I didn't see the vegetables. Finally, in the alley when I came back, I met a grandmother who picked vegetables and sold them.

Gu Lian also bought the paper and nails for the windows. The windows had to be fixed so that they could sleep well at night, and all the necessary household items were bought, and the assistants helped them to send them home.

Looking at the things they brought back, Mrs. Wang's eyes lit up with joy, and she took the food and put it into the kitchen. The house that had never been lit before finally smoked.

Seeing the children's busy appearance, Gu Lizhi also felt very good in his heart, it would be good to live here safely.

"Father, go and rest in the house! I'll fix the house where you and mother live first." Gu Lian saw that his face was not very good-looking, and hurried him to rest.

Gu Lizhi's body was not feeling well, and he was in a hurry on the journey. Now that he stopped, he realized that his throat was uncomfortable. He sat on the cold plank bed and covered his clothes.

I tore off all the waste paper on the windows, took the paste I made, and carefully pasted the newly bought paper on it. The fallen windows were also fixed with iron nails. There was no room for cold wind to blow in. It feels much warmer.

Mrs. Wang entered the house with the cooked food, and she said with joy on her face: "The master in front probably left in a hurry, and there is still a lot of firewood in the kitchen, and we have some firewood for the past few days." landed."

They actually baked a few corn tortillas, as well as white and fat steamed buns. Even if there was only a bowl of cabbage leaf soup in the middle of the table, everyone sat around and ate it extraordinarily sweet.

"From now on, if we can eat so full every day, we will be living a good life." After Gu Lian finished eating, she licked the bottom of the bowl clean, touched her firm stomach, and looked a little lazy.

The ten steamed buns and ten corn cakes were all eaten. The family's stomachs didn't know if they were hungry or something, but they ate everything.

Today's meal is full and I have to worry about the next meal. Gu Lizhi also feels that he can't be idle anymore. He has to go to the bookstore to see if there is any work that needs to be copied. Only when the family has income every day can he have the confidence to buy it. thing.

"Tomorrow, I'll go to the street to see if there is any book shop that needs to copy books. Don't worry, I will definitely make money." Gu Lizhi patted Wang's back reassuringly.

Looking at her husband's expression, Mrs. Wang loosened her tight brows. There is no obstacle that a family can't overcome. They can definitely think of a way. No matter how poor they are, as long as the family is together. .

"Ok, I know."

"We have to go out early tomorrow. Fortunately, it's close to the mountains, so it's easy to gather firewood. We need to pile some firewood at home. Mother, there is still fire in the stove you just lit!" Gu Lian is not familiar with this place, and I can't find any good way, I can only get familiar with this place first, and then make plans.

"Yes, what are you doing?" Just as Wang nodded, she saw Gu Lian standing up, taking the broken iron pot outside and entering the kitchen.

It was still too cold inside the house, and the quilt was newly bought, but she really didn't dare to spend all the money, for fear that there would be urgent matters and no money and nowhere to ask for help, so the quilt was not the thickest, and there was just a blanket underneath. A hard bed with a mat.

She took the broken pot into the kitchen, and when she saw the charcoal in the stove, she smiled happily, picked up the ashes from the stove with a stick, and put all the ashes on the ground into the broken pot. Then I pulled out the charcoal from the stove, they couldn't afford to use charcoal now, so they could only use this as an emergency first.

He entered the house with the leaking broken pot, and when everyone saw the coals in the broken pot, they all gathered around with stools, put their hands on it and roasted it, and felt warm all over.

Before going to bed, they boiled hot water, cleaned their bodies, and then went to sleep peacefully. The charcoal basin was placed in the room where the parents slept, and the room would be warmer if there was a fire. The quilt warms up quickly.

In the early morning, before the rooster crowed, Gu Lian's three sisters got up from the bed. They took it for granted last night. Even if they were warm, it was still very cold to sleep here, and they didn't sleep well all night.

"Today we have to go up the mountain, go out earlier, and come back with more firewood in the morning." Gu Lian took a rope and tied her waist, so that the clothes would not leak out.

Now they are all dressed in clothes picked up outside when they came here. When they first came out of the house, the clothes they wore were already too tattered.

"I'm going to make breakfast. My parents haven't woken up yet, so I guess they're still falling asleep." Gu Zhu saw that the sky was still dark, and when he got up from the bed, it was so cold that his bones were frozen to the bone.
