Chapter 234, Repairing the Old House
Everyone gets together during the Mid-Autumn Festival. Women don’t say much because they have children at home and just have a meal. The men are much more comfortable and there is always wine on the table.
Everyone's face turned red from drinking.
The drunkest one was He Zhengting. Maybe he had let things go, or maybe he had suffered a severe blow. Now he didn't have the aura of a big brother at all.
"It's all my fault. If I had kept a closer eye on your sister-in-law, she wouldn't be like this now."
Seeing his wife sitting outside, He Zhengting felt regretful.
"And An Lin, that heartless guy, actually married a wife and forgot about his mother. She's his biological mother."
···
No matter how much he said, no one agreed with him, so everyone just listened and let him vent.
However, Lixia's father-in-law asked an extra question before going to bed at night. After learning the situation, he was really scared to death. He kept muttering that their family married Lixia and so on.
At night, Mei Xue helped the slightly drunk He Anze upstairs. Forget about taking a bath. How could he take a bath in this state?
Meifa's face was full of disgust.
"Grandma, please take Xiaoyu and the others to bed. I'll trouble you to take care of Xiaopeng and Xiaocheng tonight." If he didn't wash, Mei Xue would wash it instead. It was uncomfortable and smelled bad.
"Okay, just keep an eye on Anze and make sure he doesn't choke if he drinks too much." Grandma He was afraid that He Anze would lose consciousness and choke to death when he vomited.
"Yeah, I know."
Fortunately, the children were very well behaved and fell asleep after taking a bath at night.
After Mei Xue cleaned herself, she took out a pill she had prepared from the space. This was the first time she had prepared it, and she had never taken it before, so she didn't know how effective it would be.
Seeing that the person was really drunk, Mei Xue directly pried open his mouth and threw the pill in.
"I hope it helps." After saying that, Mei Xue clapped her hands, turned off the lights, climbed into bed and fell asleep.
He Anze felt a little dizzy, but his body felt very uncomfortable, as if it was about to burst.
He felt something was wrong and his consciousness began to clear. He immediately used his tiny internal force to stabilize the power that was running wild in his body.
Half an hour later, he opened his eyes, "What's going on? Can other kinds of wine increase internal strength?" Looking at the internal strength that was even more violent than before, He Anze was very confused.
Mei Xue was sleeping soundly at this time, so she didn't have time to care about what happened to He Anze. Besides, could a drunk person really choke to death? She didn't believe it.
After a while, He Anze felt that he smelled very bad, so he immediately got up from the bed, gently opened the door and went downstairs.
He has to tidy himself up first. Xiaoxue doesn't dislike him, but he does.
After taking a shower, He Anze woke up and ran into his grandmother when he came out of the back room.
"It's you. I thought there was a thief in the house." Grandma He was holding a kitchen knife in her hand. If the light in the house hadn't shone on He Anze, she would have gone up and chopped him.
Of course, He Anze saw the knife in his grandmother's hand and was terrified. "Grandma, if you find something wrong at home in the future, don't do it yourself."
"Oh, is there anyone I'm afraid of?" Grandma He said indifferently, "Why are you taking a bath in the middle of the night? It's so noisy."
"Okay, I'll go to bed right away. Grandma, you should go back to bed too, otherwise you will be tired tomorrow." He Anze sent grandma into the room first, and looked at the two children on the bed. He felt at ease.
"What are you looking at? Go to bed." Grandma He looked dissatisfied.
"Okay, I'll leave now. Grandma, you should go to sleep too." He Anze quietly left the room and turned off the lights in the room before leaving.
Looking at his wife sleeping on the bed, He Anze's restless heart began to beat again. Anyway, he would be at home tomorrow, so why not...
Mei Xue was now completely at ease with He Anze, without any guard at all, and was even more familiar with his scent.
His approach did not wake her.
until···
"You beast."
That night, Mei Xue didn't fall asleep from midnight onwards. This is how people with good physical strength suffer.
It was daybreak and the roosters outside began to crow.
"Let me go now." Mei Xue couldn't understand why he had such good energy.
Weren't you drunk yesterday?
"If you don't let go, I won't let go. Wife, let's have another daughter." He Anze teased.
Mei Xue really couldn't accept having a child anymore, "No." Daughter, oh, you're dreaming.
"Then don't give birth, wife, come, let's change the action."
He Anze didn't let go of Mei Xue until he heard his grandmother's cry outside. "If you're tired, go to sleep for a while. I'll take care of the kids today."
Mei Xue looked at the man in front of her who had changed significantly, and immediately thought of the pill she had fed him yesterday, "Has your internal strength increased again?"
He Anze was stunned for a moment, then he laughed, "Yes, I didn't expect that a glass of wine would actually increase my internal strength by 10%."
Mei Xue regretted it, she really regretted it.
Is she crazy?
Not wanting to look at him again, Mei Xue closed her eyes and said, "You take care of the kids today. Also, someone is coming to collect the fish today, so you go and keep an eye on them."
There is nothing to do today, so let her sleep.
"Okay, you take a rest and leave these things to me." He will definitely do a great job.
Xiaoxue didn't get up in the morning. As someone who had experienced this, Grandma He knew what had happened.
"You little bastard, do you want to tire Xiaoxue to death?" After cursing, Grandma He rolled her eyes at He Anze.
Xiaoyu knew that his family was going to sell fish today, so he went to the fish pond to wait as soon as he finished his meal.
He also brought his own friends with him.
Of course the big fish are for sale, but if there are any small fish the villagers will take a few back home to eat.
Grandma He had already told Xiaoyu about this, letting them take some, but not too many. Three or four would be enough. If they took more, they would lose a lot.
Lixia's parents-in-law and her husband still had to go to work, and they only had two days off during the Mid-Autumn Festival. After breakfast in the morning, they began to prepare to leave the village.
Lixia came to find Mei Xue, and when she learned that she was still sleeping, she smiled and left the He family courtyard.
But the shyness on her face blinded the man.
After the fish was sold and the money was collected, Grandma He directly gave He Anyong two hundred yuan. It was not a lot, but not a small amount either.
He Anyong wanted to refuse it, but he was more afraid of Third Grandma's stern face, so he accepted it obediently.
They also took away three or four big fish, each weighing at least five or six pounds.
After staying at home for three days, He Anze drove back to the county town. He also had to deliver vegetables to Qian Zeyang and Gu Ji.
In the town, after Uncle Shi made sure that no one was watching them, he took Old Man Zhao and started to plan for Hejia Village.
Mei Xue didn't want the old house to be abandoned. The villagers had just started to harvest rice and soon they had some free time, so she could ask some people to help renovate the house.
