Chapter 62 62. Late night communication
Lin Qingxi went back to the kitchen and took Zhou Mingmin out and asked her to wash up. She also took care of Xie Lu's three children and washed them together before it was Aunt Sun's turn to wash up.
Anyway, there is a well in the yard, and it is very convenient to draw water. It only costs some firewood to boil water, but the bone soup is simmering in the pot, so it is not troublesome.
After the work in the kitchen was almost done, the people eating in the hall finally finished eating. Jin Dahua and Aunt Sun took their daughters-in-law to clean up the dishes and chopsticks. Zhou Mingmin did not ask them to do the dishes. Jin Dahua and Aunt Sun
Supporting his own men, the daughters-in-law supported Zhou Daye and Zhou Jin, and Zhou Mingming sent them back with a flashlight.
When Zhou Mingming came back, Zhou Mingmin had already washed the dishes and chopsticks in the kitchen. There was still some food left in the pot to warm the hot water. Zhou Guilin had also finished washing. Aunt Sun helped Zhou Guilin back to the room to rest. Zhou Ming
Min is also preparing to take her three children back to the room to rest.
"Understood, there is still hot water in the pot, go and take a bath!" Lin Qingxi heard the noise and walked out of the main room, just in time to see Zhou Mingming closing the courtyard door.
"Okay, I'm going to wash the dishes now. If you're tired, go back to your room and rest first!" Zhou Mingming nodded. He was also very tired this day, not to mention Lin Qingxi, who had been busy.
"No, I'm waiting for you," Lin Qingxi shook her head. Zhou Guilin and Zhou Mingming moved their large furniture such as tables, chairs, dishes, cabinets, etc. back. The sleeping bedding was still at Lin's house.
After all, I needed it for bed at night, so I kept a change of clothes and moved the remaining clothes back to the new house.
Zhou Ming knew that he washed the dishes very quickly. When he came out of the shower and put on clean clothes, it had only been about five minutes, and his hair was still wet and dripping with water.
"Here, this is what I use specifically to wipe my hair. Wipe it yourself." Looking at Zhou Mingming, Lin Qingxi handed the slightly damp cotton cloth over speechlessly.
"Go to bed first! You have worked hard today," Zhou Mingming looked at Lin Qingxi lovingly. Before that, he had always thought that he was just wishful thinking, but after today, he realized that she was just like him, and the two of them were
Both are happy.
"It's okay. You have to get up early tomorrow and go borrow tables, chairs and bowls with Uncle Lin. There is nothing in the new house. You have to bring vegetables and food there for cooking, and then even firewood has to be moved there.
A lot of firewood will be used tomorrow, and the main room and every room of the new house will have fires burning all the time, as well as the kitchen," Lin Qingxi looked at Zhou Mingming and kept saying.
"I know. I have already made an agreement with people to order twenty loads of firewood. Each load costs 20 cents. I asked them to deliver the firewood tomorrow. Then they will unload ten loads of firewood and put them here for you," Zhou Mingming said in a low voice.
Lin Qingxi's concern was very helpful to him.
"That's good. All the food processed in the evening is put in the kitchen cabinet. I fried twenty fish and ate one at night. I also cut the pork head out. You can give me two bowls early tomorrow morning.
I will send it to my uncle and my second uncle’s house, and then I will take a pot to it. I can also make more meat and vegetables tomorrow. Put the bone soup in the pot and cook a whole pot, which is enough. Tomorrow I will make braised pork and sauerkraut.
Vermicelli, stir-fried cabbage and shredded radish, it’s almost ready, do you want to add more vegetables?”
Lin Qingxi revealed the menu she had ordered and wanted to hear Zhou Mingming's opinion. Anyway, she thought these dishes were enough, including three or four meat dishes.
"Okay, which side of the yard do you want?" Zhou Mingming asked suddenly. In order to fairly divide the houses between his son and daughter next to him, Zhou Guilin arranged the two yards into vertical rows with the same layout of six rooms each.
There is a door in the middle of the two courtyards, and there is also a door outside.
"Just the one next to us! You can spare our bedroom, and let Xiaolu's three children live in the rest!" Lin Qingxi said nonchalantly, as the house will easily deteriorate if it is empty.
"I understand," Zhou Mingdian said. He already knew what Lin Qingxi meant, but now he just mentioned it again.
"It's getting late, I'm going to bed first, you wait until your hair is dry before going to bed," Lin Qingxi got up and went back to the room.
Zhou Mingming had short hair, so he wiped it up with cotton cloth until it was almost dry. After sitting in the main room for a while, his hair was dry, and he got up and went back to his room to rest.
Lin Qingxi didn't get up until dawn the next day. Zhou Guilin and his wife got up just before dawn. They cooked a pot of sweet potato porridge and then moved all the remaining luggage to the new house next door.
As soon as Zhou Guilin and Aunt Sun moved their things over, Zhou Mingmin, her three children, and Zhou Mingming also got up one after another. They warmed the porridge for Lin Qingxi, and the Zhou family started to eat breakfast. After finishing
They were ready to move the rest of their belongings.
"Understood, you and your father are going to move things, Mingmin and I will prepare the things in the kitchen first, and the three children will go home and play in the main room first," Aunt Sun said while eating, her voice was so low that it was almost inaudible.
, in order not to disturb Lin Qingxi’s sleep.
"I know, mother," Zhou Mingming responded in a low voice. Xi Yatou still hasn't woken up today. She must have been tired yesterday.
Soon, the Zhou family made breakfast in two or five times. After eating, Zhou Mingmin put away the dishes and washed them, and started to clean up the kitchen.
Aunt Sun found two baskets, and then she and Zhou Mingmin selected their own kitchen utensils such as bowls, chopsticks, shovels, etc., and put them in the baskets, filling one basket with them.
Then, the mother and daughter found their own grain and put it into baskets, then called Zhou Guilin and his son and asked them to carry it back to the new house next door.
When Lin Qingxi got up and went to the kitchen to wash up, she saw Aunt Sun and Zhou Mingmin packing up the vegetables that had been processed last night. They put the vegetables into basins and took them to the next door.
"Girl Xi, you're up. I've warmed the porridge for you in the pot. You can eat it after washing up quickly," Aunt Sun saw Lin Qingxi's figure with sharp eyes and warned her quickly.
"Okay, I'll be ready soon. After you move the things over, boil two pots of hot water and mix the noodles. I'll be there after I finish eating." Lin Qingxi nodded. She planned to go there later.
Went there with something.
After all, the Zhou family is also a self-respecting person. After living in their own home for so long, they basically eat their own food, and the Zhou family only eats coarse grains.
If she takes things there again today, the Zhou family will lose face and self-esteem in the village, and their reputation will not be good in the future. She will also be given a bad reputation by others.
Lin Qingxi quickly finished washing up. After breakfast, she went to the next door empty-handed. Her things had already been moved there by the Zhou family, so she just took them there.
When they arrived next door, Lin Qingxi was shocked by the level of chaos next door. Except for the things in the kitchen, everything else was piled on the kang in the main room. It was still piled up in such a mess that it made her dizzy to look at it.
