Chapter 126 Little Fish's House Can't Be Led to Anyone Else (2/2)



I don't know what else would be suitable.

After careful consideration, the only thing we need right now is straw mats.

Thinking this, Chi Yu sighed softly to herself.

If the character my sister transmigrated into was a terrible mother-in-law, perhaps these problems wouldn't exist.

At that time, in Chi Dong's family home, he had already finished eating. He was sitting in the main room with his pipe, smoking it intermittently while pondering something.

Lu Guihua sat cross-legged beside him, her hands still busy stitching the shoe sole, her gaze fixed on the window covered with oiled paper, lost in thought.

After a while, she came to her senses, sewed a few stitches on the shoe sole, then sighed deeply and said:

"We're so grateful to Xiaoyu this year. Without her, how would we have survived?"

Chi Dongyi's eldest son is named Chi Meng, who is two years older than Chi Dahu.

He, also a grandfather, was sitting in the main room and hadn't left.

Hearing his mother say that, he replied, "Of course!"

We won't go into details, but Xiaoyu asked Dahu to have us make charcoal and grow vegetables, and how much money we made from selling them.

Take this heated kang (a traditional heated brick bed) for example. Without it, even if we used three or five charcoal braziers, our room wouldn't necessarily be warm.

That day, some of the older folks in our village probably just fell asleep and never woke up again.

As he spoke, he glanced at his father.

After all, his father's age is considered quite old in Chijia'ao!

Chi Dongyi put down his pipe, got up, walked to the door, and lifted the straw curtain to look outside.

Suddenly, the cold wind blew, making my scalp tingle and my bones feel cold.

Even so, he didn't move an inch, just staring blankly at the heavy snow falling outside.

A moment later, he said, "Boss, get dressed and come out with me."

The snow is too heavy; we need to go and call those people with thatched roofs to get up and shovel the snow.

Otherwise, if things continue like this, I'm afraid I'll wake up tomorrow to find out their house has collapsed and they're buried in the snow.

Chi Meng remained seated and said, "Father, the snow is too heavy; the thatched roof can't withstand much snow."

If you're going to sweep, you have to go up to the roof every hour.

This might be okay during the day, but you can't do this at night; nobody can handle it.

If you ask me, why don't we ask them to contribute some money and rent a few rooms from someone else?

Or we could go stay in Tanshan.

Although it was a bit far from the village and the house was empty, the house was sturdy.

There shouldn't be any wild beasts appearing that day.

Besides, Aqing's future father-in-law's family also lives there.

If anything happens, we can help each other out.

Chi Dongyi considered his son's words for a moment, and finally said:

"It's not realistic to expect them to make a big fuss and move to Tanshan now."

As for the families with fewer members in our village, there is currently Liu Qingshan, Xiaoyu, and Chiming.

Liu Qingshan was easy to talk to; he had three empty rooms in his house that he could lend to a family.

Given the current special circumstances, if everyone squeezes in, three rooms should be enough.

Chi Ming's family is small; the three of them live in one room, which is fine.

But there's only one room left. Who should live in it?

As for Xiaoyu, her family is the oldest, so theoretically, she could easily accommodate two or three more families.

Just as Chi Dong finished speaking and took a sip of tea to moisten his throat, he saw Lü Guihua say with a stern face:

"Old man, don't talk nonsense. Xiaoyu's situation is special, and there's absolutely no way we can lend our house to anyone else."

Even if she agreed, this old woman wouldn't!
