Chapter 12 Romance Full House
Xue Xiang could hardly believe that the little man in front of him was his own baby, but he saw that the little man was carrying a patched snakeskin bag in his left hand, and a snakeskin bag on his right shoulder, and his right hand was placed on his chest, holding the corner of the snakeskin bag that was around his shoulder, making half of the hand red and half snow-white, and a circle of thin iron wire around his neck, which was twisted and twisted, extremely ugly. The dress that got up early had been changed into short-sleeved shorts. At this moment, the purple clothes could no longer see their true colors. A thick layer of mud was puffed out, and a small face was even more colorful, white, with deep lines, which were mud grooves made by sweat plowing through the dusty little face.
It was just like a little man was drilling out of a pile of mud, but a smile on his face was blooming, and the laughter like a silver bell made Xue Xiang know that the little man was having fun.
"Hey, everyone, haha, haha, come and see, come and see, this is picked up by Sister Xia and I, and snatched it from many people. Thanks to Xiaobai, if it hadn't scared away the boy's big dogs, we wouldn't have been able to grab it." The little guy also noticed Xue Xiang and cried out.
Xue Xiang came to his senses at this time, took a few steps, and then arrived in front of the little guy, reached out to take the snakeskin bag in his hand, and then walked around the wire wrapped around her neck for her every second, and rubbed her little head with resentment. Before he could make a sound, the little girl in the Xia family spoke first.
"Uncle Xue...Uncle, I took Xiaoshi's sister there. Don't blame her, I'll blame her..." The little girl of the Xia family lost her cleverness in eating buns in the morning, and she couldn't say a word timidly.
Speaking of which, it was also a big blame for the change of impression in the Xia sister's heart. Originally, the Xia sister thought that even renting a house, the people who could only rent their own grocery warehouse must be poor, but this morning, Xue Xiang took back the food that the Xia sister had never dreamed of. After Xue Xiang left, the little guy reported the radio and comic strips, waiting for a lot of fresh things that the Xia sister had never seen before. Now, the Xia sister immediately classified the Xue sister as a different level of people.
After all, she is young, but she is not young. She is in junior high school and is even poor. She often matures very early in her mind and knows what kind of family is so decent. At this point, the little sister of the Xia family suddenly saw that Xue Xiang was so cramped. Even the name was made up by accident because the big brother in front of her called her mother the eldest sister-in-law. According to others, she naturally has to call herself "uncle", but why did the little sister of the Xue family call herself "Xia Erjie" again? It's so chaotic!
For a moment, the little sister of the Xia family scratched her head again for the question of her name.
It was not until the little sister of the Xia family spoke. Xue Xiang's eyes flashed over, because he saw only the little guys. But when he saw that the little girl of the Xia family was worse than the little guy, her face was so blurred that she could hardly see her true face. Under her rolled high sleeves, two thin and long arms were faintly scratched and bloodstained. The bangs on her forehead were soaked in water, and it was wet. Her black hair was soft and slim on her forehead. A circle of snakeskin bags were placed around her small body. Some of the bags were loose, revealing colorful glass bottles, porcelain bottles, plastic bottles, and some poking out yellow and old newspapers from the gaps.........
"What are you doing?" Xue Xiang had a vague answer in his heart, but he still wanted to confirm it.
Now, before the little sister of the Xia family talked, the little guy jumped and snatched out: "Collection of rags, well, no, it's picking up rags. We don't have candy or popsicles, we went to pick them up. They were fetched out of a lot of garbage. We couldn't pick so many of them. There happened to be a moving house. Many people went to pick them up. We went there too. Hehe, thanks to Xiaobai's greatness, he scared away many people, so I picked them up. Xia Erjie and I picked them up. Xia Erjie said that these things can be exchanged for at least 50 cents. On the way, I asked, the popsicles here are cheaper than those in Beijing, two cents a cent, hehe, 50 cents a cent, I'll do it, I can change them......5, 60, 70 to 80. Anyway, there are so many popsicles. We are great, we make money..."
The little man smacked his mouth and spoke proudly, as if he had done something great, and he was laughing at each other, which was so happy.
The little sister of the Xia family was a little embarrassed after all. It would be fine if she took Xue Xiaomei to play, but it would be bad to take her children in the city to pick up rags with her. Xue Da... Uncle gave herself such good buns in the morning...
Xue Xiang was very thoughtful. Seeing the little sister of the Xia family lowering her little head, she knew that she was muttering. However, at this moment, he was a little happy. It is not a good education and entertainment for the little guy to gain happiness from hard work, and let her know that life is hard. Usually, she would hum and moan. Nowadays, the little sister of the Xia family took her to work, whether it was three minutes of popularity or being happy and proud of herself for making money, it was a good step.
"Xia... You're called Ruozhen. I'll call you Ruozhen in the future. You don't have to call me uncle. Let's talk about our own things. Just call me Brother Xue in the future. Today I want to thank you for taking Xiaoshi out to pick things up. Let her follow you from now on. As long as you pay attention to safety, I'll be happy about anything. Come on, let's see if you two are dirty, let's wash your door, and then have a meal to see what delicious food Brother Xue has prepared for you at noon."
As he spoke, Xue Xiang picked up the snakeskin bags on the floor in three or two, piled them in the corner of the wall, and came to the well, lifted up the food box, then carried two buckets of well water, and turned back to the kitchen. Soon, smoke rose from the large chimney of the short kitchen. Because it was summer, it was just summer, and only warmed the water in the pot, so it was very short. As soon as the fire started, Xue Xiang scooped the two pots of water back into the bucket, took it out, and asked two mud girls and a little mud cat to wash it.
He returned to the kitchen and heated up lunch in the food box.
It seems that the life of the county party committee member is not ordinary nice, almost luxurious. Xue Laosan is a glutton, and he likes the chef. He knows a lot about cooking. Just look at these very simple dishes, two meat and two vegetables, and four dishes, you can tell that he has put in a lot of effort. A braised Wuchang fish is bright and bright red, and there is a mystery hidden in his belly. If you pick it a little, you can see round and shiny quail eggs. The other meat dish is actually a roasted suckling pig that Xue Xiang never thought of. The Ru pig is roasted with crispy skin and bright red, and the mystery is also hidden in his belly. It is a real piece of Mao's braised pork; the other two ingredients are fried with three fresh ingredients and spicy and sour potato shreds, which obviously have put in a effort. The fat of the three fresh rice is obviously oyster sauce, and the sour and sour potato shreds are wrapped in flour, but fish meal.
Such four dishes made Xue Xiang feel awe-inspiring and sighing. At the end, he had to put a tray in his mouth and simply heat it up.
The eldest sister-in-law of the Xia family and the eldest sister of the Xia family did not come back to eat at noon. Xue Xiang knew that the big bag of breakfast left in the morning was stuffed to the Xia family's younger sister by Xue Xiang, but he heard the quarrel between the eldest sister of the Xia family and the younger sister next door, just for this breakfast. The eldest sister of the Xia family wanted to make lunch with her mother, but the younger sister of the Xia family was greedy and wanted to keep it for the next time to satisfy her craving, but she still didn't force her head and was forcibly taken away.
At this time, the only one left for lunch was the Xue brothers and sisters, Xia family, Xiaobai, these three and one tiger. When the four dishes were served, the Xia family was stunned again. Zhizhi was holding the bowl, but he didn't dare to put the chopsticks. The little guy grabbed her big bowl and helped pick up a bowl. A meal, Xue Lao San swept the clouds away, but the Xia family was so distracted that he picked up a few chopsticks and vegetables, and ran into the hall. After a while, he came out, picked up some dishes, and ran back.
Gradually, Xue Xiang felt strange. The lips of the little girl in the Xia family were still in the same color, and there was no shiny at all. Obviously, the table of oily dishes had not passed, so I didn't ask where the dishes were picked up. It was thought that the little girl was still thinking about her mother and elder sister, thinking about letting them taste it. Xue Xiang originally wanted to say that she would bring the vegetables back in the evening, but when she thought of the girl in the Xia family's self-esteem and filial piety, she stopped her words. So she tried her best to work on the two plates of vegetarian dishes. In the end, there was still most of a suckling pig left and a fish was ordered by the little guy. She wiped out a lot of it, but half of the body was not turned around. Xue Xiang directed the little girl in the Xia family to take back the hall.
After the meal, the little guy was anxious to go through his own rags harvest, but Xue Xiang stopped him and pointed at her newly changed clothes. The little guy whined and lost his mind. Xue Xiang asked the little guy to go to the kang of the Xia family to take a nap, but he walked out.
Xue Xiang went here not to go elsewhere, but to hire a few workers to renovate his house. He only looked at it for a while and felt it was unbearable. However, he said that almost all the working people today were versatile. Xue Xiang asked while walking, and after walking a few steps, he asked the leader. He had no money and goods on his side, but when the leader bid, he didn't bargain at all. He called out, "The sooner the completion, the more bonuses", and the agreement was concluded.
The magic of money is endless. Xue Xiang greeted many people. He pulled thirty people in one go. The building materials were even more capable of Mr. Qian, turning over the roof, building walls, repairing windows, scraping imitation porcelain, laying wires, suspending ceilings, pressing marble floor tiles, dismantling kangs, and setting up beds......
Thirty strong men have tossed a house of about ten square meters, and some people have guaranteed the old version of "the sooner the completion, the more bonuses" before. However, at sunset, a small room with a luxurious and comfortable level in this era was born.
The snow-white walls were scraped with imitation porcelain. Although they were not dry, they even found a faint pungent smell, but the softness that hits the face makes people feel warm; the hanging roof is painted warm, which is very helpful for people to sleep; the newly built brown bed is very elastic; the wardrobe, desk, desk, curtains, pillows, bedding, and even slippers are all selected by Xue Xiang himself and bought, which is soft, elegant and comfortable.
A broken walled thatched hut turned into a "romantic house" in the blink of an eye. Not only did the little guy and the little girl in the Xia family be stunned, but even the young and strong men who were personally in charge were stunned. It was not until Xue Xiang took out a lot of money and handed it to everyone that the crowd came to their senses.
