Lei Jun quickly stopped his mother-in-law who was rushing to the door and said, "Aunt, don't worry, we will still be here at noon. See you, let Zhenzhen go to work."
Mother Lin thought about it and decided not to go out.
"Aunt, come to my house for lunch today. We'll make some big steamed buns to warm up the stove."
"Hey, girl, I'll bring you some spicy sauce that I made myself to go with the vegetables. It's delicious when eaten with steamed buns."
"Hahaha...that's a great feeling."
"Auntie, why can't I see Xiaoguang and Xiaohui?" Lei Yu turned his head and looked around and asked.
Mother Lin thought of her two grandchildren and found it a little funny. She said, "They haven't gotten up yet. It's cold and they're staying on the kang. It's a good thing we moved here, otherwise they would still be freezing in the tube building."
Several people nodded when they heard this. In the past, when Lei Zhenzhen went home for the holidays, she would always say that the kang at home was better and warmer.
Her family members felt sorry for her before, but since there was no way to build a kang in the tube-shaped building, they could only feel sorry for her.
Now that we have moved into the yard, we can build a kang in our own home, but the cost of firewood has increased.
They didn't think about this this year, but they could send some firewood next year. After all, their home is close to the mountains, so it's easy to find firewood.
The family sat for a while before Lei Lao said, "Mother-in-law, let's go home and clean up first. When the meal is ready, let the third child come home and call everyone."
Mother Lin waved her hands and said, "No need. We can hear you by just shouting at the wall. It's troublesome to run back and forth."
"Hahaha... Well, we won't bother with that. Just yell and be done with it."
After they finished talking, they took the keys and went to the house next door. Lei Zhen, pushing a bicycle, looked at the older brother who was pushing a bicycle nearby with confusion and asked.
"Brother, has my sister-in-law's family moved here?"
"Yeah, didn't we tell you last night?"
Lei Zhen thought about it, shook his head and said, "No."
"Oh, really? Maybe I forgot." Lei Jun said, scratching the back of his head.
"Before the autumn harvest, my sister-in-law went to town and heard someone say that the house was for sale, so she brought her brother-in-law and his family to look at the house. They found it was pretty good and the price was cheap, so they bought it together. Now, this is our house."
As the two were talking, Old Man Lei opened the door. After the four of them stepped into the house, Lei Zhen took a closer look at the house and asked again.
“How much is this yard?”
Lei Jun raised his hand proudly and made the sign of eight: "It's a bargain, isn't it? Uncle Lin said that our two families are getting a great bargain. This yard will cost more than this."
"Eight hundred? That's quite cheap." Lei Zhen nodded. He should have some money left over from the money he sent every month.
"It's not eight hundred, right? If we buy from both houses, each of them will be fifty dollars short, so it's seven hundred and fifty dollars."
The next second, Lei Zhen asked seriously: "Is there anything wrong with the house?"
Lei Jun shook his head and said, "Uncle Lin knows this family. There is no problem with the house or the people. I just want to sell it to someone who can take good care of the students in the school."
"Then our two families are destined to be with this courtyard."
"That's right, Uncle Lin said my sister-in-law is lucky..."
"What are you two whispering about? Hurry up and get to work." Old Man Lei yelled at his two sons.
"Right now, Dad."
"It's done, it's done. If there's anything else, let's talk about it when we're free. Hurry up and finish it because we have to go to my brother-in-law's family for dinner later."
Lei Zhen nodded and started cleaning the house with his family.
This is the Shanhe Brigade.
On very cold days, women would go to other people's homes, sit on the kang, chat, mend shoe soles, and share today's gossip.
"Gui Fen, is Zhen Zi really back?"
Before Zhou Guifen could say anything, Wang Chunhua said, "Aunt Wu, how can this be false? My master saw the person with his own eyes."
"Yes, my son also said that he saw someone. He was really scared at that time."
"It's good enough if this guy can come back. A family really can't be without a man."
"Sister-in-law, Mr. Lei is back, why didn't you go to his house to see him?"
Zhou Guifen raised her eyelids, looked at the people and said: "My head of the family said that Zhenzi will come to our house to visit his uncle and aunt today when he has time. Should I wait for him at home?"
