Chapter 19 Chapter 19 The Rising Sun (Three Updates)…

Hua Feifei, Han Jing, and Xu Fei had been mentally prepared for this, but they still felt a little pain. After all, in this era of material scarcity, good things have to be eaten less and less, and they can't ask their family members to send them money all the time.

They were also very curious about where Ye Yu had eaten so much. Their eyes unconsciously scanned her stomach, but it was still very flat.

Do you really have the strength to digest?

Does this follow the law of conservation of matter?

Is this scientific?

After finishing the meal, Ye Yu stretched his lazy back, stood up, and washed the "clean and clean" enamel cup with the warm water in the pot, then poured two and a half buckets of water into the pot and added more firewood.

After she was done, she said, "If you want to take a bath, you can only use the wooden bucket at the door. Also, add as much hot water as you have used in the pot. I will also take a bath later."

I added: "Thank you."

After saying that, he left the three people who were washing dishes and lunch boxes and went back to the house carrying the packages in the yard.

Be a cool girl (bushi).

The west room that Ye Yu chose was relatively small, but it was in the countryside after all. Compared with the rooms in the city where every inch of land was valuable, it was already considered large. There was nothing in it now.

Unlike the large room with a specially lengthened kang and the east room which used the old kitchen chimney to convert it into an earthen kang, the west room did not even have a kang, only a lonely wooden bed.

Ye Yu carefully checked it from top to bottom again. The room seemed small and empty, but it was airtight and there was no need to worry about leaks. The only drawback was that it had no windows, which might have been because it was a temporary granary in the old canteen in the past.

She didn't need a kang, but the lack of windows was indeed a problem.

Opening the window makes too much noise, and I don’t know if the wall can withstand it. Why not make a few ventilation holes?

Ye Yu transformed into Spider-Man and climbed onto the wall. He poked a brick twice with two fingers, so fast that only his shadow could be seen.

Only a thin layer of ash fell down, penetrating a few centimeters, but it was still far from penetrating. The two fingers turned slightly red due to the high-speed collision.

"Tsk~" Ye Yu was not afraid of getting her fingers injured. With such a low strength, it was not a big deal. Even if she was injured, she could heal quickly. What she disliked about herself now was that her ability was only level 1. She couldn't poke a hole just by relying on her physical fitness. She still needed to cultivate herself to a higher level.

At the same point, place three space tears in a row, then poke with your finger, finally poking two small holes, then move to another position and repeat the same process.

In less than ten minutes, the vents were √.

It's a little small, but it can still allow for some ventilation.

This location is relatively high, on the wall a little below the beam. It is hidden and not so noticeable. There are many mosquitoes in the mountains in summer, so you can use an old mosquito net that is ventilated and breathable to cover it, and add some mugwort for more effectiveness. In winter, you don't have to worry about the cold wind blowing towards the bed. Even if Ye Yu is not afraid of the cold, he doesn't want to be blown by the cold wind in the cold winter.

That's it for now.

Ye Yu put the food in the package into the space and temporarily piled the luggage on the ground.

Then make the bed.

In this era, people did not use extravagant materials such as mattresses and quilts when making beds. Most beds were made of straw and thatch. These two materials really played many roles in farmers' lives.

In addition to being used to cover roofs, make beds, weave baskets, and burn firewood, thatch is also a traditional Chinese medicinal ingredient. It is mentioned in the Compendium of Materia Medica that it "eliminates latent heat and promotes urination."

There was straw in the kitchen, but not much. Ye Yu used branches instead of straw when cooking, and only took a small amount symbolically to make the bed.

Ye Yu laid a thin layer of straw on the bottom of the hard bed, and then took out a mutant rabbit skin from the space that had been dried in the apocalypse and was originally intended to be exchanged for food with ordinary people.

Just one high-end mutant rabbit skin can cover the entire bed. The rabbit skin is firm and the rabbit hair is soft.

The whole bed suddenly became soft and comfortable. Under limited conditions, we had to live as comfortably as possible. Even if these rabbit skins were discovered, they could be explained. No one would mistake them for the fur of a rabbit.

Ye Yu couldn't wait to roll around on the rabbit fur mattress. It was so soft and warm, definitely much better than the old quilt. The monster skins in the space could be used to make several more quilts.

Then put on the bed sheets, then the quilt and pillows, and then pack up the luggage.

Throw all the food into the space, take out the toiletries and shoes to be changed tomorrow, and temporarily put the rest in a package on the ground. You will definitely need to prepare a lot of things for the new home you will live in for about ten years, so there is no rush.

I do some daily exercise, such as boxing and kicking, to stretch my muscles and bones. When I’m done with my busy work outside, I take a hot bath and wipe my hair as dry as possible with a dry cotton cloth.

Fortunately, I have short hair. In the days without electricity and hair dryers, short hair is indeed more suitable for living.

As for the bald head... it's a bit unusual. Nowadays, there are very few bald men, and there are also few bald men. It may be because there are fewer people who stay up late and use their brains.

Lying on the bed and putting her feet into the quilt, Ye Yu couldn't help but let out a sigh of satisfaction, and her own body temperature quickly warmed the quilt.

What a peaceful and heavenly day!

There were many birds singing and insects chirping in the mountain village at night. Accompanied by the songs given by nature, Ye Yu fell asleep.

Zzz～

In the early morning, a loud whistle broke the tranquility of the mountain village, accompanied by waves of echoes.

There are no alarm clocks in rural areas nowadays, and the whole village cannot even find five watches. Whistling is the best way to wake people up to prevent someone from accidentally oversleeping.

Ye Yu had already gotten up before the whistle blew. It was not because her biological clock was stable, but because she did not know there was a whistle. In addition, the roosters in the village were very responsible. Before daybreak, several roosters were already crowing one after another.

I suddenly want to drink chicken soup.

When Hua Feifei, Han Jing and Xu Fei woke up sleepily, breakfast was already prepared. It was not just sweet potatoes and corn, but also bread and salted vegetables brought from home.

While Ye Yu was munching on a biscuit, they poured two handfuls of cold water on his face in the yard.

"hiss!"

"Oh suck"

"Freeze, freeze, freeze."

Suddenly I woke up.

Han Jing shouted at the top of his voice: "Good morning, comrades."

"Serve the people." Hua Feifei and Xu Fei readily continued the classic dialogue on the Internet.

"Hahaha."

They laughed like three fools.

Yesterday’s hard work has not been completely erased, but after a good night’s sleep, they have been mentally revived. Perhaps this is the difference between young people and old people.

Xu Fei thanked Ye Yu again: "Thank you for helping us make breakfast today, Ye Yu. Applause."

Bang bang bang!

Han Jing took the photo very vigorously and was definitely the king of applause; Hua Feifei also applauded. She was just grateful to Ye Yu for making breakfast, but it didn't mean that she had to be friends with Ye Yu.

Ye Yu: "???"

Young people are really energetic.

Xu Fei thought she was confused about the address, so he smiled innocently and explained, "We are all like-minded comrades living together. We don't need to be too polite. You can call me Xu Fei or A Fei. A Fei is my nickname."

Han Jing and Hua Feifei also began to omit the word "comrade" and called each other by their names.

Han Jing also called out "Ye Yu", but Hua Feifei snorted again, "Comrade Ye Yu likes only one person", with the emphasis on "one person". It seems that she did mind a little that Ye Yu chose the small room in the west wing yesterday.

"Yeah," Ye Yu nodded randomly, "Xiaohua." Is this name special enough for a person? Is it unique enough?

“???!” Hua Feifei’s eyes widened even more than her apple-like face, “You you you——”

"Pfft." Han Jing couldn't help laughing. When Hua Feifei glared at him, he looked up at the sky and the ground. The sky was really blue... "Ah, the sun is out!"

The others followed his gaze and saw a red halo appear above the green hills in the west.

After they had finished their meal, the red halo expanded, and the golden sun finally broke through the clouds, casting its rays on the yellow earth, and climbed upwards little by little, which was beautiful and spectacular.

"The sun is rising." Xu Fei pushed his glasses and sighed in a very literary manner.

The four of them went out to work in the morning sun.

Along the way, I met many villagers who were going to work together. Most of the villagers' clothes had patches on them, their skin was dark or rough red, and they were carrying farm tools on their shoulders or in their hands or on their backs.

When Han Jing, Xu Fei and Hua Feifei greeted them enthusiastically, some people responded with the same enthusiasm, while others responded dully, perhaps because of shyness or personality. Some people couldn't stop looking at Ye Yu and Hua Feifei while chatting with Han Jing and Xu Fei.

Some people even take over the position of host.

After asking about the ages of the educated youth, and learning that Ye Yu and Han Jing were 17, Hua Feifei was 18, and Xu Fei was 19, I insisted on asking them whether they had a partner and why they were not married, especially the two female educated youth.

They said that in their village, girls of this age would at least have a husband, if not get married. As they were talking, they also talked about some good-looking unmarried young men they knew.

When it came to the unknown territory, Han Jing and Xu Fei couldn't speak fluently. Even Hua Feifei, who was so outgoing, became shy and embarrassed. Maybe it was the characteristic of the times.

Ye Yu, who was calm and collected, was unique. Unmarried girls in the village were not like her. The old monk was in a trance and replied calmly, "A wise man does not fall in love, but is dedicated to serving his country."

"!!!"

“…”

"???"

Everyone present was stunned by this answer. The jokes that may survive on the Internet in the future are still very powerful and cool in this era, which is shocking.

"Well said!"

Han Jing was indeed a professional enthusiast, he applauded enthusiastically, and judging by the tears in his eyes, he might really have such a lofty ideal.

Therefore, the look he gave Ye Yu was extremely passionate, and he felt an incomparable joy of finally finding a like-minded life confidant.

Elm leaves:

...Are you serious? Don't come over here.

Xu Fei and Hua Feifei felt that if Ye Yu had not said this expressionlessly, if he had used a slightly more positive tone, or if he had put even 1% of his obsession with food into this moment, they might have believed it.

However, although this interruption method is unconventional, it is very useful. I don’t know what to say to the aunts and uncles who try to talk about marriage. At most, they mutter, "What love or not, a woman should get married early."

Worth learning from.
