After dinner, the two waited for all the Han family members to take a bath before going to the backyard to wash up casually.
When Su Xieqiu returned to the room, Han Zhenyu was already breathing evenly and seemed to be asleep.
She climbed onto the kang, blew out the kerosene lamp, and lay down at the other end of the kang.
After a while, when Su Xieqiu was about to fall asleep, he vaguely heard a woman humming from next door.
"Hmm... um... ah... ah... Zhenhua... you... you are so bad..."
Su Xieqiu didn't react at first. He just thought it was noisy, so he pulled the quilt over his head and continued to sleep.
But when she thought about what that sound was, she suddenly came to her senses and was so embarrassed that she didn't know what to do.
After a while, Su Xieqiu gently lifted the quilt on her head and secretly glanced at Han Zhenyu. She saw that his breathing was steady, so he probably wasn't woken up.
She then quietly breathed a sigh of relief. It would have been really awkward if both of them were awake.
She thought she could just endure it for a while, but who knew that the two people next door, after a day's work, could still be so active at night. If it didn't work the first time, they would do it again after a while.
Su Xieqiu had no choice. She couldn't interfere with a couple's sex life, so she could only cover her ears and pretend not to hear anything.
Fortunately, I am only staying here for one last night. Once I move out tomorrow morning, I won’t be forced to listen to such shameful noises anymore.
Su Xieqiu originally slept lying flat on her back, but she felt uncomfortable in this position all the time, so she quietly changed her position.
Han Zhenyu just turned over, and their eyes met. The moment they looked at each other, it seemed as if the air froze.
I don't know how it happened, but when the two people next door reached the final moment, Zhang Qianyun's humming became louder.
They both noticed the other's embarrassment, but still pretended to be nonchalant and looked away.
Su Xieqiu felt that her face was so hot that she could fry an egg on it. She closed her eyes tightly and lay there not daring to move.
Han Zhenyu is not much better. Although he is mature and steady, he is, after all, a young man full of vigor and vitality, and he has never experienced such a thing.
So his embarrassment was not only reflected in his heart, but also in a certain part of his body.
When there was no more noise from next door, both of them closed their eyes but were unable to fall asleep. However, they did not dare to look around or toss around, for fear of encountering the same embarrassment as before.
Neither of them knew when the other fell asleep. The next day, Han Zhenyu got up as soon as the cock crowed.
For fear of waking up Su Xieqiu, he tiptoed out of the door, took a broom and went to the brigade headquarters.
He was just about to clean up the empty room when Han Lei and Sun Dashu came over to help.
It was a small room and the three of them cleaned it up in no time.
"Brother Zhenyu, there's not even a kang here. How are you going to sleep at night? Why don't you squeeze into my house?" Han Lei said.
"No, your house isn't spacious enough. I'll put up a wooden bed for your sister-in-law to sleep on temporarily. We should be able to move into the new house before the snow starts."
He had thought of all these when he came. If he asked the carpenter to make a bed, it would be too late, so he could only build a simple bed for Su Xieqiu to sleep temporarily.
Sun Dashu said, "I remember there was a small wooden bed in the warehouse where farm tools were stored. It should still be usable, but it's a bit crowded for two people to sleep on."
"It doesn't matter if it's smaller. I'll be leaving tomorrow night. Just enough for your sister-in-law to sleep alone." Han Zhenyu thought that at worst he could sleep on the floor tonight. It was summer now, and he could sleep anywhere. "I'll talk to the captain later and borrow it first."
As soon as Han Zhenyu finished speaking, Han Hongbing came over.
He saw the three people and asked in surprise: "Why did you come so early?"
"Captain, we just got here too." Han Zhenyu nodded at him with a smile and was about to talk about borrowing a bed.
Han Hongbing opened the door of the warehouse and said to him, "Zhenyu, there is a broken wooden bed here. It was used by the literacy teacher who came to the village a few years ago. You can use it temporarily, and you can save money to buy a new one."
Han Zhenyu said gratefully: "Captain, I was worried about the bed, and I didn't expect you to solve my urgent problem. Thank you so much."
Although his words were a bit exaggerated, Han Hongbing felt very happy and felt that he had not made a mistake in helping this kid.
Han Lei and Sun Dashu carried the bed out. Han Zhenyu saw that it was still in good condition, so he wiped it and put it back in the room.
"Leizi, Dashu, I'm going to the city to buy some pots and pans. Can you two go to the village and ask a few bricklayers if they are free to help me build a house? 80 cents a day, no meals provided."
Han Zhenyu originally wanted to ask his grandfather and uncle to help find someone.
But thinking that Su Xieqiu would live in the village in the future, he would definitely have to come back.
So I can't avoid dealing with the villagers, so I should take this opportunity to ease the situation.
There is another reason. If we ask villagers to help build the house, they can go home and eat since they are close by.
Su Xieqiu no longer has to cook for so many people and can relax a little.
Han Lei and Sun Dashu thought the price he offered was a bit high, but when they considered that the meal was not included, they felt it was about the same.
If you provide meals, you can't let people eat only coarse grains. You have to add some oil and water occasionally, which costs a lot of money.
"Okay, let's go ask now." The two nodded in agreement.
Sun Dashu asked again: "Brother Zhenyu, how many houses do you want to build? How many people do you need?"
"We are going to build four tiled houses. You two can help me find about ten people. I will let my uncle figure out the rest."
His aunt's house is not far from Sanhua Brigade, so it is convenient for him to go back for lunch.
"Okay, we'll go there in a minute." Before they left, they asked him again, "Brother Zhenyu, is there anything else you can help us with?"
Han Zhenyu thought for a moment. He had to leave tomorrow night and had many things to do, so he said to the two of them, "Why don't you two take a day off and go to the city with me to get some things."
There are a lot of things to buy for this division of the family, including pots and pans, food, and various daily necessities, all of which need to be purchased today.
He has to visit his grandfather and uncle in the afternoon, and also go to the brick factory to have bricks delivered over. He has to get all this done before he leaves.
"Okay." The two agreed without any hesitation.
"Brother Zhenyu, when are we leaving? Let's go and tell our family." Han Lei asked.
Han Zhenyu looked at the sky. It was already dawn. He thought Su Xieqiu should be up by now.
I said to them, "I will go back and move the things here now, and we will meet at the entrance of the village in half an hour."
"Okay, then we'll go home first." The two of them didn't even mention helping him move things.
I heard from their father yesterday that Brother Zhenyu left home with nothing, so he probably didn't have much stuff, so the couple brought it all over in one trip.
When Su Xieqiu woke up, he didn't see Han Zhenyu, and knew that he must have gone to clean the house over there.
