Chapter 20 Moving
The next day, Mo Haoyue went to the county town early in the morning to pick up his comrade-in-arms and nephew.
It took three adults and three boys more than half an hour to move all the things into the yard.
Zhang Hongxia even wanted to take all the things she couldn't wear or use with her, but was directly rejected by Mi Xia. In the end, she only took bedding, kitchen food and daily necessities.
Mi Xia said she didn't want many things, otherwise it would take another hour to move them all.
Everyone brought only a few clean clothes with few patches. Mi Xia didn't allow people to bring clothes with patches on them. Even so, Zhang Hongxia felt very distressed.
Zhang Hongxia bought some cloth and made school bags and clothes for the children stitch by stitch. Mo Zhixia and Mi Xiaohuan wore the clothes made by Zhang Hongxia, which were so adorable.
Early in the morning, Mi Xia took out the two Saraji skirts she bought yesterday and gave one to Zhang Hongxia. It is true that clothes make the man. After changing into new clothes, her spirit and outlook are completely different.
After waiting for a while, a truck drove over here. When it arrived at the door, Mo Haoyue got off the truck. The driver was a young man in his twenties named Zhongye. Many people followed behind the truck. They were all villagers who came to watch the fun.
Zhong Ye got out of the car and was stunned when he saw Mi Xia. Where did this fairy come from? Mo Haoyue patted him on the back of his head, and then he touched her head embarrassedly.
"This is your sister-in-law, don't look at her carelessly." Mo Haoyue stared at Zhong Ye and said.
Zhong Ye was so embarrassed that he couldn't bear it anymore. He saw that someone else's wife was caught red-handed.
The villagers are also very excited at the moment. Yesterday afternoon, they saw the Mi family buying bicycles, and in the evening they saw Mi Xia's mother-in-law coming to make trouble. Today, a truck came again. They have had nothing to talk about after dinner in the past half month.
Mi Qiu didn't expect the village chief to follow him, so he quickly greeted him, "Village chief, why are you here? Come in and sit down, it's a mess outside."
"I came to see, are you and your family moving away?"
Mi Qiu rubbed his head embarrassedly, "I just found out last night that my sister bought a house in the county town and insisted that our family move there."
The village chief said: "Then go and do your work first, and bring your sister to my house later?"
Mi Qiu: "Okay, when I'm almost done packing, I'll take my sister over there."
Mi Qiu accompanied the village chief to the door before returning to the yard to move with them.
"Village chief, are they moving? Where are they moving to?" asked Passerby A.
"We've moved to the county town. Okay, let's all go. What are you doing here? Don't you have anything to do at home?"
Everyone dispersed in a hurry. The village chief had already chased them away. If they didn't leave, they would be scolded.
Passerby A B: "Hey, why did they all move to the city? What are they doing in the city?"
Passerby A: "Haven't you heard? Mi Qiu is going to work at the motor factory. That's a stable job."
Passerby A B: "I haven't heard of it. How did you know about it?"
Passerby A: "Yesterday, Mi Qiu went to the village chief's house. I happened to be there and heard it."
Passerby A: "Why did they move away? Do they have a house in the county town?"
Passerby A: "Who knows? Maybe it's rented."
Soon, the family loaded everything in the yard into the car and slaughtered all the livestock.
Mi Qiu: "Sister, the village chief just came over and asked me to take you to his house for a while, what do you think...?"
Mo Haoyue: "Brother, go get two chickens and come with us."
At the door of the village chief's house, Mi Qiu called out, "The village chief is home."
Village chief: "Yes, yes, come in, I made two cups of tea, come in and sit down."
Mi Qiu handed the chicken to the village chief and said, "Village chief, please stop working. We will sit for a while and then go back."
The village chief said: "Although your family is moving away, you can always come back to visit us when you have time. This will always be your home."
"If you need my help in the future, just come to me. Although I can't help much, I will definitely help if I can. Maybe in the future, I will need your help with things at home."
The village chief looked at Mo Haoyue as he spoke. No matter how dumb Mi Qiu was, he could have guessed that the village chief wanted to ask Mo Haoyue something.
Mo Haoyue: "Okay, if the village chief has anything to do, go to the county town to find Mi Xia. She will write to me. I will leave you an address in the county town, right? But I don't want too many people to know this address."
"Don't worry about this. No one else will know about it." The village chief smiled so hard that all the wrinkles on his face were squeezed together.
After Mo Haoyue finished writing the address, he handed it to the village chief, "Then you go ahead and do your work. My brother and I will leave first."
In the yard.
Mo Haoyue: "Wife, have you packed everything?"
Mi Xia: "Well, we have moved everything. We are just waiting for you and big brother to come back."
Mo Haoyue got on the passenger seat: "Zhong Ye, let's go."
It was the first time for my eldest brother and his family to ride in a truck. The children were so happy that their mouths were stretched beyond their ears and they looked around everywhere.
Mi Qiu and Zhang Hongxia's eyes showed a trace of reluctance. After all, they had lived here for so many years.
Amid the laughter of several children and the reluctance of two adults, the car arrived outside the small western-style building.
Mo Haoyue and Zhong Ye moved things down from the car. Mi Qiu, Mi Xia and Zhang Hongxia found a place for these things. The five children ran to the small yard to play on the swings.
Seeing that the time was almost up, Mi Xia went to the kitchen to steam rice, big plate chicken, spicy crayfish, farm-style salted tofu casserole, fish slices with tofu, mountain pepper pork chops, Deyi braised bones, spinach soaked in golden and silver soup, Hangzhou-style vegetarian roast goose, and West Lake lotus root.
After all, Zhong came here specifically to help, so he must be invited to have a meal.
Mo Haoyue: "Zhong Ye, go and help pick up your uncle. I still have to clean up this mess."
Zhong Ye: "Okay, Brother Mo, I'll go now and make sure to bring uncle here safely."
Half an hour later, Zhong Ye brought Zhong Xinfu here safely. So far, one more person had been added to the moving team.
There were a lot of odds and ends, and everyone didn't stop until Mi Xia called for dinner. By the time Mi Xia served the dishes, they had already washed their hands.
When Zhong Xinfu and his father smelled the fragrance, they lost interest in working. When they heard that it was time to eat, they quickly ran to wash their hands, leaving Mo Haoyue and the others stunned.
Zhang Hongxia went to the kitchen to serve them food, and Mi Xia was busy putting a glass of water in front of each person.
Zhong Ye and Zhong Xinfu, father and son, had guessed what was cooked just now when they smelled the aroma. Now, seeing the table full of rich dishes, their eyes lit up.
One was that he had never seen so many delicious foods in his life, and the other was that he hadn’t eaten so many delicious foods in many years. Even at banquets, there were more vegetables and less meat. This was different, each portion was ten times the size.
The Mi family, on the other hand, were not so impatient. They had never lacked meat since Mi Xia came.
The host and the guests enjoyed the meal very much.
Mo Haoyue sent Zhong Xinfu and Zhong Ye out, "Brother Zhong, take care."
"Go back soon, my nephew will take me there."
Mo Haoyue waited until the father and son were far away before going back. There were still some things that had not been packed. The family could pack them up slowly and it would be done in the afternoon at most.
After a quick meal in the evening, everyone lined up to take a shower. There were two bathrooms upstairs and downstairs. Mi Xia and the little girl's room was downstairs, and several nephews chose the rooms upstairs. Mi Qiu and Zhang Hongxia were also upstairs.
Mi Xia was exhausted all day today, but eldest brother's family was still in high spirits. It might be because they were too excited to move into a new home, or it might be because Mi Qiu had to go to work tomorrow.
Mi Xia didn't know what time their family went to bed.
The next day, I got up early in the morning, cooked porridge, made some white flour pancakes, fried some vegetables and eggs, and boiled more than ten eggs.
Mi Qiu got up after breakfast was ready. He ate breakfast in a hurry and then rode his bike to work.
As soon as Mi Qiu left, Mo Haoyue and his father came over. Zhang Hongxia and her group of children also woke up, and Mi Xia served them meals.
"Sister-in-law, please help me take care of Xia Xia. Haoyue and I are going out for a while. Don't go out to buy groceries. We will do it for you." Mi Xia reminded.
"Okay, leave Xia Xia to me, you guys go quickly." Zhang Hongxia looked at Mi Xia teasingly.
Mi Xia knew that her sister-in-law had misunderstood and thought that the two of them were going on a date, so she didn't explain.
The two walked side by side, and Mi Xia took Mo Haoyue directly to Zhang Xiaoyu.
Mi Xia: "Speaking of which, I am quite lucky. I only came to the black market once and met Zhang Xiaoyu. I feel at ease working with him."
