Chapter 190 Zhou Kerou Wets on the Bed and Gets Beaten
Because when building the new countryside, each household contributed 200 yuan, and the rest of the money was borne by the brigade.
Now that the houses have been built, the production team has been reluctant to let everyone move in, and some villagers are starting to worry.
Zhou Yong frowned slightly: "You can move, but you have to tell them in advance that if the house sinks or cracks after you move in, the team will not be responsible..."
An all-brick house needs a certain amount of time to be ventilated and aired, and the cement must be completely dry before people can move in. Otherwise, once a fire is lit in the house, the walls will easily crack.
Li Baotian smacked his lips and said, "We'll have a meeting to discuss this later. Anyone who can't wait can move over first..."
Zhou Yong nodded, and Zhang Guifang interrupted: "When you two get home, don't talk about work. Wash your hands and eat..."
Li Caiyun came into the house from outside with a big belly, and Zhou Kerou followed her crying.
Zhou Kexin picked up her sister and said, "Little crybaby, why are you crying again?"
Zhou Kerou rubbed her eyes. She wanted to eat candy, but Li Caiyun wouldn't let her, so she got upset.
Li Jingchu secretly gave his younger sister a piece of candy, and Zhou Kerou stopped crying immediately.
Li Caiyun saw the whole scene and she smiled helplessly.
"Xiao Yun, you stay at home this afternoon. I'm going to the brick factory."
Li Caiyun glanced at Zhou Yong and said, "Aren't you going to the county town? Why aren't you going anymore?"
Zhou Yong almost handed over all the brick factory affairs to Li Caiyun, but her baby was due in the next few days, and Zhou Yong was worried about her riding his bicycle back and forth every day.
In fact, Zhou Yong had told Li Caiyun before that she didn't have to go to the brick factory to work every day, but she just didn't listen.
The reason why Li Caiyun did this was because Zhou Yong was not always at the brick factory, and she was afraid that if there was trouble in the factory, Zhou Yong would be the one held responsible.
"There's no rush to go to the county town. I'll go another day."
Li Caiyun glanced at Zhou Yong and understood her man's thoughts. She said, "I'm fine. Go do what you want."
Zhou Yong smiled and said, "It's not a big deal. It doesn't matter if it's a day earlier or a day later."
Li Caiyun said "oh" and Zhang Guifang looked at them and smiled.
A few people were eating when Li Caixia came over with a small basket of fresh mushrooms.
"Sister Xia, are you going up the mountain?"
Li Caixia nodded, and Zhang Guifang smiled and said, "Caixia, have you eaten?"
"Aunt San, I've eaten. You guys can eat now."
Li Caixia picked a lot of mushrooms in the mountain today. She knew Zhang Guifang didn't have time to go up the mountain, so she hurriedly sent some mushrooms to her third uncle's house.
The mushrooms were big and pleasing to the eye. Zhang Guifang smiled and asked Li Caixia: "These mushrooms are really big. Where did you pick them?"
In order to pick mushrooms, Li Caixia went up the mountain before dawn. She walked more than 20 miles and picked a backpack and a cloth bag of mushrooms.
Li Caiyun looked at her cousin, then looked at Zhou Yong, and swallowed the words that were about to come out of her mouth.
Li Caixia sat for a while and then went back. After dinner, she tidied up. Li Caiyun talked to Zhou Yong about arranging a job for her cousin.
There is no shortage of people in any position in the village now, so Zhou Yong needs to use his brain if he wants to arrange a job for Li Caixia.
Li Caiyun knew that this matter could not be rushed. After all, Li Caiyun had just moved her household registration here. If she was given a job immediately, it would cause rumors.
Zhou Yong went to the brick factory, and Li Caiyun was not idle at home either, drying vegetables with Zhang Guifang.
Cut the beans into strips, peel the boiled potatoes and cut them into slices, cut the cucumber into strips, mix with wood ash and dry in the sun…
It was already past five o'clock when the mother and daughter finished their work. Zhang Guifang stood up, rubbed her waist, and then finished cooking.
Zhou Kexin helped to light the fire, while Li Jingchu, Li Jingen and Li Caiyun turned over the potato chips that had been dried in the sun in the yard.
"Nan Nan, don't make trouble."
While the three of them, mother and son, were busy here, Zhou Kerou was happily following them and making trouble over there.
Zhou Kerou was quiet for a moment, and while Li Caiyun wasn't paying attention, she turned the potato chips back over.
Li Caiyun frowned and shouted. Zhang Guifang, who opened the door and was cooking, heard it and hurriedly coaxed Zhou Kerou into the house.
"Grandma, what delicious food do you want to give me?"
Zhang Guifang glanced at the stove, picked up a tomato and handed it to Zhou Kerou.
The little girl looked at the tomato and happily took it.
Zhou Kexin suppressed her laughter and whispered, "Children are so easy to fool!"
Zhou Kerou, who was standing at the door, didn't hear what her elder sister was muttering. She took the tomato and ate it happily with her big round eyes.
Zhang Guifang looked at her little granddaughter and smiled, then washed the vegetables and started cooking.
After a while, Li Baotian and Zhou Yong came back. The father-in-law and son-in-law were not idle when they got home. One went to fetch water, and the other turned over the wood to prepare for the stove in winter.
It was getting dark and the Li family had finished their dinner.
After a busy day, Zhang Guifang, who is old, ate her meal, cleaned up, and went to bed early.
Zhou Yong took the four children to play at the door for a while. When it was completely dark, the four children followed him home.
Li Caiyun was sitting on the kang reading a book. As soon as the men came into the room, she immediately closed the book and prepared to get upstairs.
"Just lie on the kang and I'll coax Nan Nan to sleep."
Li Caiyun didn't move when she saw this. The four children washed their feet and got on the kang one by one.
Zhou Kerou was lying in bed humming, she wanted to find Li Caiyun.
Zhou Yong patted his daughter and said, "Nan Nan, be good. Mommy is tired. Daddy will coax you to sleep."
Zhou Kerou pouted her lips while Zhou Yong was telling her a story. Before he could put her to sleep, Zhou Keyin, Li Jingchu and Li Jingen fell asleep.
The little girl has had difficulty sleeping since she was young. Zhou Kexin and her two siblings have always gone to bed at around seven o'clock since they were young, but she has to go to bed around eight-thirty every day.
Zhou Yong finally coaxed his little daughter to sleep. He got up, straightened his back, washed his feet, and returned to the south kang.
"This child is really annoying. Niuniu and the other two were not like her when they were young..."
After hearing Li Caiyun's emotional words, Zhou Yong blew out the candles and said, "How can children be the same?"
Li Caiyun nodded, holding her stomach and turned over in the quilt.
Li Caiyun fell asleep soon. Zhou Yong covered her with a quilt, turned over and closed his eyes.
He had a dreamless night, and the next day Zhou Kerou's crying woke Zhou Yong up.
Li Caiyun looked at the map that her little daughter had peed on the mattress and slapped her on the butt in anger.
Zhou Yong raised his head and looked towards the north kang: "Nan Nan peed on the kang again?"
Li Caiyun nodded: "Can I beat her if she doesn't wet the bed?"
Zhou Yong sat up and put on his clothes, then went downstairs to the north kang and picked up his little daughter who was crying very sadly.
"You got beaten, didn't you? Let's see if you dare to pee on the bed again."
Zhou Kerou was sobbing, and Zhou Yong carried her outside to get some fresh air.
"Why are you crying so early in the morning?"
Li Baotian heard Zhou Kerou crying and walked out from the east room.
"You got beaten for peing on the kang."
Li Baotian took Zhou Kerou from Zhou Yong's arms and said, "Don't cry, grandpa will take you to the garden to find grandma..."
Zhang Guifang was pulling onions in the garden. When she heard Zhou Kerou crying, she stood up with a smile.
"Murmur, look what this is?"
Zhou Kerou stopped crying immediately and looked at the green onion held high in Zhang Guifang's hand.
Li Baotian looked at his little granddaughter's cute expression, smiled and held her in his arms as he came to Zhang Guifang.
Zhang Guifang raised her hand and wiped Zhou Kerou's tears with the back of her hand: "Grandma will carry you to pick tomatoes and cucumbers..."
Zhou Kerou happily followed her grandparents back to the house holding a tomato. Li Caiyun couldn't help laughing when she saw her daughter's heartless appearance.
