"It's nothing, your brother's military unit arranged for him to work in a coal mine."
Seeing Xiuhua's gossipy look, Ning Jing simply said one sentence.
Xiuhua's eyes widened immediately upon hearing this.
"real?"
Her voice trembled slightly. The recruitment quota that was supposed to be her compensation had been sold off, and she had cried countless times in secret.
Now, unexpectedly, things have taken a turn for the better, and my older brother has become a factory worker.
Xiuhua felt like she was dreaming, and Tiedan, who was writing down the wrong answers next to her, pinched her hard.
I don't feel any pain at all. Am I really dreaming?
Even as she went to sleep, Xiuhua felt as if she were in a fog.
All my good mood was ruined the next day by a knock on the door.
Fu Hongxing had gotten up early and was chopping firewood in the yard. He had taken advantage of a free day to go to the firewood mountain to cut the firewood.
After chopping the firewood into sections, start stacking them along the base of the wall.
Once the firewood around the wall is completely piled up, there will be no fear of running out of firewood in winter.
After all, they use heated brick beds, which requires more firewood than others.
When Sister-in-law Guihua came to help last time, she praised the heated kang (a traditional Chinese bed-stove) highly.
After finding out that Fu Hongxing had learned how to use the heated kang (a traditional heated brick bed) in the army, Guihua's eyes lit up.
Then they asked us for the method of building this kang (heated brick bed), and Fu Hongxing even followed Zhao Dazhu to build one in a vacant spot in their house.
After learning from Fu Hongxing, he cut bamboo and wove a mat, then threw it directly onto the heated kang (a traditional heated brick bed).
I must say, sleeping on a heated kang with bamboo mats in this season is quite comfortable.
Not only is it cool, but you don't even need a blanket.
Most importantly, that heated kang bed is not like a canopy bed.
The couple lay on it, and the slightest movement would cause the canopy bed to creak and groan.
My son is already so grown up. If things go smoothly, I can get him married and have kids this year.
If the children hear anything, wouldn't that be incredibly embarrassing?
And this heated kang (a traditional heated brick bed) makes absolutely no sound, no matter how much you roll around or jump on it.
Zhao Dazhu liked it very much for this reason.
When the door was banged on, Xiuhua and Tiedan were brushing their teeth, and Siya, following Ningjing, had just gotten out of bed.
Then, Ning Jing was combing Siya's hair with a wooden comb when the door was knocked on with a loud "bang bang bang".
The force was so strong, it was as if the wooden door had a grudge against it.
When Ning Jing saw Fu Hongxing carrying the chopped firewood to the back of the house and stacking it up, she put aside the rope she was going to use to tie Siya's hair and ran to open the door.
Judging from the urgent knocking, something must have happened.
A thought flashed through Ning Jing's mind, and then she opened the door.
Before she could ask who it was, she heard a harsh voice coming from outside the door.
"Sister-in-law, it's so late, why are you only getting up now?"
Uh, it seems like everyone who calls her sister-in-law is in the yard, right?
Thinking of the person who called her sister-in-law, Ning Jing couldn't help but look carefully outside the door.
Before she could figure it out, someone grabbed her shoulder and pushed her away.
"Sister-in-law, what do you mean? You're just standing here at the door and won't let me in, are you trying to stop me from coming in?"
While making a fuss over there, they walked into the house, each holding a radish head on either side.
Ning Jing originally didn't want to give in, but the other person was aggressive, and most importantly, she had a swollen belly, clearly indicating she was pregnant.
