There are four bedrooms in total, and she has prepared them all. One for her grandmother, one for herself, one for Mr. and Mrs. Qiu to stay when they come, and one for anyone to stay.
The kitchen is on the left as soon as you enter the door. It is fully furnished with pots, pans, and utensils. There is an open space next to the kitchen. She plans to build a roof over it and store firewood, coal, etc. in it.
The open-air storage room at the back also needed to be thrown away and tidied up. After going out for a while, she came back with five chickens packed in a sack. Someone asked her if she was selling them, but she shook her head and just said they were for her family, then she walked into the yard in small steps.
Mother Qiu did not come that night. Before she left, she had agreed that it would be impossible to invite grandma over right away, so she should first get over the pain and settle the house herself. If she couldn't make it, she could send her sister-in-law up to keep her company for a few days.
If she is scared tonight, let her go to Zhou Xiaonan's house to spend the night.
He also specifically asked Wang Cuifeng for help, fearing that her daughter might be bold and disobedient, living alone in an unfamiliar place at night, and something might happen. So if he didn't come, he asked her to ask Qiu Yuling to stay with her for the night.
Qiu Yuling hadn't rested the entire day. After she had finally packed up everything, she planned to go into the space cabin to take a hot bath and have a big meal to reward herself, but the door was slammed shut.
"Is Yuling here? My mom asked you to come to my house for dinner."
After putting away the title deed and the sales book, she dragged her tired body over and resignedly opened the door.
"I've been knocking for a long time and thought you went back to school. Come on, let's go to my house. My mother asked me to come and have dinner with you." Seeing Qiu Yuling dawdling, he knew she was embarrassed.
"Oh, stop wasting time. Your mom and my mom have already agreed on this. Let's hurry up."
Qiu Yuling had no choice but to lock her door and go to Zhou Xiaonan's house with her, but she refused to eat. She said that she had bought steamed buns and dumplings from a state-owned restaurant in the afternoon, and she also took the remaining two steamed buns and one dumplings with her.
Wang Cuifeng persuaded them to drink half a bowl of porridge, and then she let the two little girls go to sleep peacefully.
When she was in elementary school, Wang Aihong always wanted to experience the joy of living with friends, but unfortunately it never came true. Unexpectedly, today, she shared her "first time" with her junior high school classmates.
Zhou Xiaonan held her aside and chatted for most of the night. Neither of them knew what time they fell asleep.
When we woke up the next day, we felt that we had become closer to each other.
Qiu Yuling originally wanted to ask for leave, but gave up after thinking about it. No matter what time, she could not slack off in her studies. Otherwise, not to mention herself, her parents would think that all this was not worth it.
Li Qingmei only worked half a day and in the afternoon she drove a donkey cart loaded with rice, flour, oil, and autumn vegetables picked from the backyard to the county town.
Fortunately, it was not cotton picking time yet, so she had some free time. She still had to make a few more trips to get everything in order.
After finding the key and opening the door, Li Qingmei went out and counted. It was the third house on the east side.
She had only been back for two days when the small courtyard had changed drastically.
The windows were spotless, having been cleaned before she left, but when had the door curtains and drapes been hung? Where had they come from?
I opened the bedroom door and went in. Wow, even the snail girl is not so capable.
The bedding, sheets and pillowcases were even more complete than her son’s new house when he got married.
I pushed open several doors and found that every house was like this.
This girl is really capable. She managed to get all of this done in one day. Is it possible to do it just by having money and tickets? Ordinary connections may not be enough!
For the first time, she thought that maybe she had previously restricted her daughter's volatility? Oh no, her daughter said that was called letting go.
Suddenly she heard the clucking of hens, so she followed the sound and went to the backyard, or let's call it the backyard for now. The backyard was only the size of a palm and even the hens were there.
She was already numb. She mechanically put down her things and poured some water into another open basin. There was no need to feed the chickens. They must be full because she could still see leftover bran.
Even this chicken is enjoying a good life with her daughter. For the first time, Li Qingmei really believed that she would enjoy endless blessings in the future thanks to her daughter.
Wan Jin has inspected the territory. This is the new home for her and her little master. There is the scent of Qiu Yuling. Confirmed!
He walked over with a heroic and confident look and lay down under the gate tower.
After putting away all the food and other things she brought, Li Qingmei washed her hands and kneaded the dough, then took a basket of autumn eggplants and cabbages and delivered them to Zhou Xiaonan's home.
"Sister Wang is at home. I know you don't need any autumn vegetables from Wuxi at home. It's a little bit of country food, so please don't be disgusted."
"Oh, Mrs. Qiu is back. We're neighbors now, so it's not okay to just come over and bring things. If you keep being so polite, I won't have anything to do with your family anymore. Isn't that embarrassing?
Dislike it? How could I dislike it? I bought it to eat alone, and I couldn't be happier with such a fresh and delicious dish. "
Since people were so polite and brought things in, she couldn't let them go back empty-handed, so she took the basket of vegetables and went into the kitchen to get a small jar of vinegar.
"Sister-in-law, how about trying the vinegar from our vinegar factory? Yuling said you can make vinegar, but I really don't know if you can appreciate it..."
The two exchanged pleasantries for a moment, then, figuring it was almost time for school to end, separated to make their own meals. Li Qingmei returned and poured the vinegar into her own jar, then trotted back to return it to the other person.
"Sister-in-law, why are you in such a hurry? Just give it to me when you're done using it." Wang Cuifeng complained with a smile, shook off her wet hands, and took the jar.
Wan Jin rushed over when he heard Qiu Yuling's voice from a distance.
Zhou Xiaonan was startled, "Where did the dog come from?"
"Don't be afraid, this is my dog, named Wanjin, and he is here to keep me company." Qiu Yuling squatted down and touched the dog's head, missing this little friend very much.
"It's your dog. It looks so smart, as if it can understand what you are saying." Zhou Xiaonan also squatted down and tentatively reached out to touch it.
"Wanjin, be good. This is your sister's friend. Xiaonan, be careful. Wanjin is going to be a mother soon and is more sensitive and irritable." It's not that I don't allow her to touch, but I still have to say hello in advance.
"Ah? Oh! Then I won't touch you. Your name is Wan Jin, right? Come, let me introduce myself. I am your neighbor Zhou Xiaonan." The cute girl is quite likable. At least Wan Jin didn't show his teeth to her.
"Yuling, can you give me a puppy later?" Although the dog named Wanjin is indifferent to others, he is very attached to Qiu Yuling. The two are like friends who can communicate with each other, which makes Zhou Xiaonan, who met him for the first time, immediately feel yearning for him.
"Of course, if your family lets you raise it. But you have to return it to me if you can't take good care of it." She was reluctant to let Wan Jin's child suffer.
After all, Wan Jin only has this one chance to be born.
