Chapter 24 Zhou Sinian, did you wet the bed? !
They slept happily here, but the educated youth in the yard in front had their stomachs growling all night and couldn't sleep at all.
In those days, a whole family could not even have enough to eat after working, let alone the educated youth who had a relatively low status in the village.
So when it was not busy farming season, the educated youth had two meals a day.
In winter, it gets dark early, and in order to save lamp oil, they have dinner at three or four o'clock in the afternoon.
As soon as Mingdai's salted rice came out of the pot, their gluttony and hunger were aroused again, and they were so gluttonous that they wanted to cry.
Liu Yan huddled on the cold kang. The quilt on her body was of no use here. She had no choice but to cover herself with a sack, but she was still cold.
In addition, she was beaten so badly when she first arrived that she couldn't get out of bed. She had to rely on the old educated youth to bring her meals, not to mention collecting firewood.
Feeling waves of pain all over her body, drinking a bellyful of porridge was of no use, and she couldn't help but sobbing again.
"Howling in the middle of the night!"
Song Lanlan, who was sleeping on the kang, was already hungry. Hearing her crying, she became even more annoyed and couldn't help but take it out on her.
"How dare you cry! You shameless bastard! You ate up a whole bag of rice. How dare you cry here? If you keep crying, I'll throw you out!"
Liu Yan was scared. It was freezing cold and she had no firewood. She would die if she went out.
The crying stopped. Song Lanlan rolled her eyes and cursed the idiot inwardly. In her heart, she was also thinking about the madman's bag of rice, wondering how nice it would be if she could eat it.
The next day, early in the morning, this body's biological clock woke Mingdai up from her sleep.
A slender white hand stretched out from under the quilt and rummaged under the pillow for a long time, but didn't touch anything. Mingdai, who had her eyes closed, came back to her senses.
There was no cell phone in there. She must have been sleepy.
I looked at the Plum brand watch I took out from the space. It was 5:30 in the morning.
It’s really early. In my previous life, except when I was in high school, I had never gotten up so early.
She didn't plan to lie down any longer, so she quickly solved the firewood problem. The mountain was blocked by heavy snow, so she had plenty of time to sleep.
It's hard to pull myself out of the warm quilt.
I put away the down quilt and electric heater inside, took off my heating cotton pajamas, put on a floral cotton shirt, and finally tied my hair into two neat braids. All done!
He jumped off the kang, found his black cotton shoes, put them on, picked up the bottle of salt water and walked out.
As soon as I went out, I saw Zhou Sinian sitting on the doorstep. He was playing with his red headscarf, putting it on and taking it off, having a lot of fun.
Ming Dai walked over and asked: "Have you brushed your teeth and washed your face?"
Zhou Sinian said nothing, but took the salt water from her hand and splashed it.
"Don't pick it, it will be ruined if you pick it off."
Zhou Sinian paused and stuffed the bottle of saline water back into her hands.
Mingdai narrowed her eyes, thinking that this man must have done something bad.
She put the bottle on the windowsill and turned to walk towards Zhou Sinian's room.
Zhou Sinian followed and tried to stop them, but Mingdai threatened her with breakfast and the foodie compromised.
Mingdai was a little shocked when she opened the door and looked at the empty room.
It was really empty. There was nothing there except a kang.
This is not the point. She frowned as she looked at the marching quilt on the kang. It was too thin.
When I got closer, I saw that the colors of the quilts were inconsistent.
I touched it and it was wet.
When she unfolded it, she saw a pool of unknown liquid in the middle, which made Mingdai's eyes widen.
"Zhou Sinian, did you wet the bed?!"
Zhou Sinian looked at her in confusion, not understanding what she meant.
Mingdai looked at the empty salt water bottle beside her and realized that this guy must have taken the lid off in the middle of the night.
I sighed and looked at him. Fortunately, his pants were not wet.
She picked up the bottle without a lid and said, "Take out the quilt."
Zhou Sinian obediently picked up the quilt and followed out closely.
Let him stand obediently holding the quilt. Mingdai found a piece of rope in the open space, took the steel nails and the axe, smashed them into the walls at both ends, and pulled up the clothesline.
They found a place with the most sunlight and asked Zhou Sinian to throw the quilt there.
Touching the quilt, Mingdai sighed.
From the first moment she saw Zhou Sinian, she could tell that this man not only had problems in his brain, but also had problems everywhere in his body.
The cold air entered the body, causing arthritis, and I had to wear wet clothes for a long time, cover myself with a damp quilt, and sleep on a cold kang without even a mattress.
Most people would have died long ago in such living environment. It is a miracle that he is still alive.
"Zhou Sinian, where are the clothes and shoes you changed into?"
Zhou Sinian watched Mingdai unfold the quilt, revealing the wet part. He felt inexplicably embarrassed and wanted to turn it over.
Before he could do anything, he was stopped. He could only retract his eager hands and turn back to his room.
After a while, he came out with his torn cotton jacket, torn cotton pants and military boots.
Mingdai touched it and found it was not dirty, but it was completely wet.
The cotton shirts and trousers are no longer wearable as the cotton has basically run away. Only the military boots are still wearable and are of very good quality. Just brush them and they will be fine.
The military boots were thrown aside, and Mingdai took him to wash up.
When they arrived at the place, Zhou Sinian poured water and washed her face, then waited for Mingdai to apply frostbite ointment on her.
Seeing that Mingdai was slow in moving and was still washing her face, he looked disgusted.
hehe!
"Here, that's yours, wipe it yourself, and only dig out a small piece at a time."
Zhou Sinian looked at the small box on the shelf, picked it up, studied it for a while, and then spirally opened it.
Smelling the familiar rose scent, he nodded with satisfaction, scooped out a small piece and rubbed it on the palm of his hand.
Put your hands together, rub the lotion carefully, and slowly apply it all over your face and neck, and rub your ears a few times.
His eyes and expression were very serious, as if he was not applying perfume but conducting a top-secret experiment.
Mingdai ignored him and took out her facial cream and applied it on herself.
Zhou Sinian had already wiped his face and picked up the foot basin to pour hot water.
“I don’t wash my feet in the morning!”
Mingdai hurried to stop him, but Zhou Sinian frowned again and looked at her stubbornly with the basin in his hand.
Zhou Sinian didn't stop until Mingdai said she didn't wash her feet either.
Holding teacups, the two of them brushed their teeth facing each other. Mingdai brushed the upper part and he brushed the upper part. Mingdai brushed the lower part and he brushed the lower part.
Mingdai looked at his serious expression and decided to tease him, so she took out her toothbrush and made a swallowing motion.
Sure enough, Zhou Sinian on the opposite side also followed suit and swallowed a big mouthful of toothpaste foam.
Then, in his shocked expression, Mingdai spat out the toothpaste in her mouth.
"Ha ha ha ha!"
Zhou Sinian's incredulous expression pleased her. She rinsed her mouth in a good mood, put away the toothbrush holder and put it back in the kitchen.
After a while, Zhou Sinian came back with an indifferent look on his face, and put away the toothbrushes in the same place, with their toothbrush holders and toothbrushes in the same direction, and he straightened Mingdai's crooked green towel.
Ming Dai looked at him and said, "Take your foot basin."
He came out carrying the bucket himself.
"Get a bucket of water and brush your shoes, just like brushing your teeth, brush them up and down, left and right, inside and outside, okay? This is laundry detergent, for shoes, it will create foam, remember to rinse them with clean water after brushing, got it?"
Zhou Sinian looked at the shoes and laundry detergent on the ground, nodded, took the bucket from her hand, and started fetching water.
Mingdai watched him brush the brush very well and turned back to the kitchen.
She plans to make some more cakes to take with her as she has to go up the mountain again today.
