Chapter 119 The Old Donkey Itches

Chapter 119 The Old Donkey (kuai) Itches

Lu Youcai woke up early today.He was always thinking about helping He Xiaoxi draw a pony, and he tossed and turned all night thinking about how to draw it.Strive to draw the best-looking one, and show off the limelight in front of He Xiaoxi.Early in the morning, I borrowed a pen and paper from my niece Lu Jiawen, and drew out the draft I had thought about.With that piece of paper in his arms, he went to He Xiaoxi's house excitedly.

Fortunately, the He family members are also diligent and get up early, so there will be no embarrassing incidents of being stuck in bed.

Mrs. Liu opened the door for him and asked: "Youcai, what's the matter so early?" Straightforward.

Liu didn't know the truth, and thought it was He Xiaoxi who made him come so early.Smiling awkwardly, I thought to myself: I have to talk to my sister-in-law later, I can't clean up people like this, because doing so will disgust my in-laws.

Anyway, Liu Shi and He Xiaodong are a couple, they both have the same idea.Perhaps it should be said that the parents of this era are all thinking like this is more appropriate.

He Xiaoxi and He Zhaodi are making breakfast in the pot house, and Xiaoju is helping them light the fire.Seeing Lu Youcai coming in, He Xiaoxi was also very surprised, and asked him similarly to his sister-in-law: "Why are you here so early? What's the matter?"

Lu Youcai took out the piece of paper as if offering a treasure, and handed it to her.He Xiaoxi looked at the folded grid paper, and asked in amazement: "What, this is?" When he opened it, a pony appeared vividly on the paper.Surprised: "Did you draw it?"

Both He Zhaodi and Xiaoju gathered around to watch.They all praised one after another.He blushed from the praise of Lu Youcai, kept scratching his head, and giggled.From today on, the second general Heng Ha will go to the ferry, so He Xiaoxi will be free.

She is going to make Xiaoju's schoolbag as soon as possible today.Also set up the tea stand at the ferry.The business of the tea stall basically does not require any capital, and it is a net profit if you earn more or less, so He Xiaoxi does not want to lose it.He Dachun's legs and feet are inconvenient, and he can't do any heavy work, so it is suitable for him to watch the tea stall there.

Also find a legitimate job for those two people, and a monkey will save them from getting into trouble everywhere.

With this painting, there is no need for Lu Youcai's help in other tasks. He Xiaoxi drove people away by crossing the river and demolishing the bridge. "You big guy, go do the hard work, I don't need your help here."

He Zhaodi wanted to stay and help, but He Xiaoxi didn't agree.Their family also has so much work, if she doesn't go home, so much work will have to be burdened on her mother and her sister.

There are enough stones to be pulled, and the foundation can be laid today.He Xiaoxi put the cloth pulp to dry, and waited for the dry space to come to the ferry.The tea stalls are all done once, and they are familiar with the way.With the help of He Dachun and the others, it will be done soon.

The people of the Lu family collected soil on the other side of the river.Every time Lu Youcai loaded a boat across the river, he would follow him, grinning foolishly as he passed by He Xiaoxi.His brothers also laughed at him once, never tired of it.

On Lu Youfu's first day in office, if he didn't come to work with him, these people seemed to be out of control.No wonder everything deviated from the original track as soon as he let go in his previous life.When Lu Youcai passed by for an unknown number of times, He Xiaoxi straightened up and glanced at him.

What others may see is He Xiaoxi's unintentional glance, but what Lu Youcai feels is He Xiaoxi saying: What are you looking at, so disrespectful, work honestly, and then play tricks and hurt you.

After being warned, Lu Youcai finally started to work in a proper manner, and did not dare to engage in such petty tricks again.

It was the first time Lu Youfu participated in the village affairs meeting in the village.In the temporary team headquarters, the village head introduced Lu Youfu to everyone.They are all familiar acquaintances, but their identities have changed slightly.The others quickly warmed up.

Only Lu Yousheng pretended to disdain to talk to Lu Youfu.He raised his chin high.

Ba Yaoyan originally wanted to get close to Lu Youfu, but he hesitated seeing this situation.But seeing that other people are warming up to Lu Youfu, he put on a shy face.

Lu Youfu saw it and smiled lightly.

In addition to introducing the new deputy village chief to everyone today, there are two more topics.One is the arrangement and resettlement of the army, and the other is the construction of houses for houseless households in the village.

These two things can also be said to be one thing.The school will start soon, and everyone in the temple on Dongshan Mountain has to be cleared out to make room for the children.

It was originally planned to borrow the house of the Lu family's old house to resettle those who are unable to build a house first.After the winter, we will think of a way next spring.Now that there is a change in the placement of the army, the original idea has been stranded.

Before the weather is cold and the soil is not yet frozen, we must hurry up to build the house.Fortunately, the most difficult and costly part, the head of the beam, has been taken care of by the people from the Lu family's old house.Once the money issue is settled, the rest of the work is nothing.

After discussing with each other, everyone came up with a feasible plan and separated.It was still early, Lu Youfu didn't go home after thinking about it, and went straight to the river.

The news spread in the village before noon.Some people who are still on the sidelines and preparing to build houses in the spring of next year become anxious.Someone saw Lu Youfu who was helping the He family to pull the soil by the river, and asked him to find out the details of the matter.

"Ninth Brother, I heard that your old house is going to be lent to soldiers?" Lu Youfu said that it was true.

He Xiaoxi stood nearby and heard it, put down what he was doing and listened carefully.In the previous life, the He family built the house before winter because they had these three free laborers.

But the other houses in the village who are unable to build are the old houses of the Lu family who borrowed.In particular, some people have no beams and pillars, and they cannot afford to build a house.In the spring of the next year, because some people were used to living in the brick and tile houses of the Lu family's old house, and some were really unable to build houses, several households lived in them and were unwilling to move out.

After the policy changed later, it is said that some families even filed a lawsuit with the Lu family because of the ownership of the house.

He Xiaoxi listened carefully, and then he heard Lu Youfu say: "The village has limited manpower, and we will call everyone to help build houses for the widowed and lonely old people. At that time, everyone who is able will come to help." Someone next to him said that he would call out at that time , they will definitely come.

Solved the problems of those who were really difficult.For the rest of the family, every family is divided into Liangtou and other things. Unless they are lazy people, they are able to build houses.

He Xiaoxi remembered that autumn is coming soon, some industrious people will go to the swamp to open up wasteland, and some people will cut reeds and cattail grass.Taking advantage of the fact that these jobs will not start until about a month later, during this period of time, these people can help dig the soil, discuss a feasible plan, and use the soil dug to pay for the boat to cross the river.

She had to go home and discuss it with her brother before she could tell Lu Youfu.Hurry up and finish the work at hand, He Xiaoxi hurried home.

He Xiaodong is much better now.Lying in bed these days is almost moldy.Hardworking people are always lying down, and their bones are sore and uncomfortable.Regardless of the persuasion of Liu Shi and the godmother, she insisted on sitting up and doing some light work.

For rural people, the light work is nothing more than tinkering and weaving things.For example, weave a basket, weave a cattail bag, make a straw sandal, make a Mao Weng...etc.

He Xiaodong is tall and tall, although he doesn't look like a handy person, he is actually very dexterous with his hands, and he is very skilled in weaving things.There is a local saying: People are stunned, dogs are stunned, and steamed stuffed buns are leeks.But this sentence is completely inconsistent with He Xiaodong.

Taking advantage of the convenience of crossing the river, the He family collected a lot of reed flowers.He Xiaodong was sitting on the porch of the eaves, playing Mao Wengweng.

Nowadays, cotton production is also low, and farmers are easily reluctant to make a pair of cotton shoes to wear.Shuidong Village is located in the north of Huaguo.In the coldest part of winter, the temperature can be as low as ten degrees below zero.If there is no warm thing on the feet, the toes will freeze off.The industrious and intelligent working people figured out a special kind of shoes, that is, Mao Wengweng.

Mao Wengweng is not made of cotton and cloth, but with reed flowers that are readily available.The finished Mao Weng Li is stuffed with broken steps, broken reed flowers, wheat scorpions, etc., and it can be worn.Even in the coldest winter, put on a pair of Mao Weng Weng, the feet will be extra warm.

To judge whether a pair of Mao Wengweng is well made, it mainly depends on whether the shape is good-looking, whether it is tight or not, and whether the shoe mouth is smooth or not.People with good craftsmanship can make Mao Wengweng that can be worn for two or three years without breaking, and the appearance is beautiful and there is no need to use cloth strips along the shoe opening.

Some people's skills are not up to standard, and the shoe openings they make are rough, and their ankles are easily worn out after wearing them.Therefore, before wearing, you must sew the mouth of the shoe with cloth strips, that is, along the mouth of the shoe.

Even though He Xiaodong looked clumsy and his fingers were as thick as sticks, the Mao Weng shoes he made were strong, beautiful and smooth.

Inspired by He Xiaoxi selling straw sandals in summer.He Xiaodong also wanted to get some Mao Wengweng out, and sell them at the ferry in the future.How much can supplement the household.

When He Xiaoxi came back, he moved Zhang Xiaoba to sit next to He Xiaodong.While helping him organize the reed flowers and hemp flakes, he expressed his thoughts and discussed with him.He Xiaoxi: "It means that our income should be reduced a bit. You should talk to your sister-in-law carefully."

It's not that the He Xiaoxi brothers and sisters are afraid of anyone, or that the Liu family is unreasonable.But as the housewife of the family, Mrs. Liu is the person in charge of internal affairs. This kind of decision that will affect the family's income must be known and approved by her.Doing so is the bare minimum of respect.

What He Xiaoxi meant was to ask him to discuss with Liu Shi in private.If Mrs. Liu is very opposed to this decision, and the job cannot be done, then let it go.

After hearing this, He Xiaodong laughed happily: "Don't tell her, she won't object." The sister-in-law heard it in the room, and answered: "Don't tell me anything, you know I won't object?"

The godmother followed suit and added: "Mother Lu Lu, you have to resolutely oppose it today, and let him know the consequences of disrespecting our female comrades." They were all jokes.The two walked out while talking, and asked, "What did you brothers and sisters discuss?"

Without waiting for He Xiaoxi's answer, He Xiaodong said first: "It's what we discussed last night." The couple have been worrying about this for a few days.It seems that there are indeed many houses to be built this time.In addition to their own family, there are Dongbo's, He Dachun's, and He Damao's.

In addition, at the old He's house, the water has receded for many days, and they have not seen a basket of soil brought back.It is estimated that they also have the idea of ​​letting them build a house.

Their own house can also be built by the Liu family and the Lu family.The other houses can no longer be helped for free like this.

The couple originally discussed that if someone went to the other side of the river to fetch soil, they would not charge for the boat.For every boat of soil they passed, they were given two baskets of money for the boat.

Of course, the principle is voluntary, and those who don’t want to give land can give money.Nowadays, there are narrow ways for every family to come in for money, and it is estimated that most of them are willing to give soil.

After hearing what they said, He Xiaoxi thought about it.If this part of the people does not accept the ship fee, they can pay with soil.You have to make a good total, how to get it.It is necessary to achieve a basic balance. Don't let one side be more than the other side, and then there will be opinions.

He Xiaoxi resolutely expressed his resistance to helping the old He family build a house.But what she said was quite tactful: "It's not impossible to help them build a house, but our house has been built for so long, and my brother is injured and can't work. Anyone in their family who asks No. It’s not something people do, it’s so frustrating.

Let's see then, if they come to help us before the house is built.Not too much, just handing us a brick counts as their help.As long as they have helped us, we will recognize that we are at a disadvantage and help them build the house. "

The implication is that if the old He family does not come to hand over this brick and wants to work for them, not to mention that there are no doors and windows are sealed.

He Xiaoxi's words especially appealed to Ma Shi.She agreed: "That's the reason, the old donkey (kuai third sound, meaning scratching, scratching, local dialect) itches, coming and going. You don't owe them anything, so why do you work for them for nothing?
If it were me, if they came and handed me a brick, I would go and hand them a brick in return for his favor.Why is the face so big, and they built a house for them? "

While talking, he took the white eyeballs and gouged out He Xiaodong vigorously.No one else could say such stupid words except him.He Xiaodong was looked ashamed.Liu Shi also looked at He Xiaodong and smiled.The meaning of that smile is, you heard it, I am not the only one who said this, right?

Three to one, the female compatriots won.

As the saying goes: don’t talk about people behind their backs, don’t talk about ghosts when it’s dark.Some people just can't bear to talk about it.Just as he was talking, He Zhonghuai came walking with his hands behind his back.Night owls come into the house—everything comes.

He Xiaoxi and the others looked at each other.Several women smiled meaningfully at He Xiaodong.He Xiaodong rubbed his nose in laughter.

He Zhonghuai thought he was laughing at him, but he also knew that it was difficult to say what he wanted to say, so his expression suddenly became more exciting than He Xiaodong's.

"Then what, are you feeling better?" He Zhonghuai asked bravely.If it was He Xiaodong in the past, he would force himself to be a tough guy and answer "OK".

At this moment, He Xiaoxi and the others had just blown the wind for him, and as soon as the words fell to the ground, no matter how bad his memory was, he couldn't forget them.He Xiaodong replied: "It's not good, I can't move much yet."

He Zhonghuai didn't know what to say next.

Roaring in my heart: Why don't you follow the routine, how can I answer the question if you answer like this?Chatting like this will kill you, you know?Can you still have fun?

 It's fun to watch other people speak in a customer service manner (●_●), but it's not the same thing if you try it yourself. (●ˇOˇ●)
  Heiyu should speak normally, don't make yourself out of trouble. (ˇ_ˇ:)
  Note: The old donkey itch, come and go.This sentence is an allusion.

  It means that the communication between people is the same as the itch of an old donkey, there must be communication. (* ̄︶ ̄)( ̄▽ ̄)~*
