Author: Seven taels of broken silver

Cheng Erlang's side went very smoothly.

The engineering team that specializes in building houses for people that Village Chief Zhang Wei knew happened to have just completed the last order. When they saw that Zhang Wei had brought the people personally, they readily agreed. So they went to the next village to buy some.

A batch of old bricks.

Things went incredibly smoothly.

Old Dengtou is still burning the customer orders he made a few days ago. Originally, there were no extra bricks for them, but someone in the village happened to order bricks and found them too expensive and wanted to lower the price, so Old Dengtou stopped selling them in anger.

Didn't this just happen to be a mistake for Cheng Erlang?

Of course, they still don’t know that this matter can be described as a mistake. They only know that this matter is like pie in the sky, a good thing!

Cheng Erlang quickly paid the money, and he and the village chief used an ox cart to haul all the bricks to their new home.

It was already noon at this time. Cheng Erlang was too embarrassed to ask the village chief to follow him around again, and he was too embarrassed to stay at Zhang's house to eat. He walked home by himself, planning to find a chance to thank him after the house was built.

How could I have known that there would be no food to eat when I returned home?

Cheng Erlang ran around all morning. When he got home, he went straight to the kitchen, but he didn't expect that the kitchen was empty and there was nothing. He was still puzzled. He opened the cupboard and rummaged through it, but he didn't see a grain of rice.

It happened that little Zhou had not rested yet, so when he saw her, he said: "Second brother, mother said I won't cook for you anymore."

"?" Cheng Erlang was immediately dumbfounded and asked, "Why?"

They just separated, they didn't become enemies.

All the rice and noodles at home were bought by him from the town a while ago.

Cheng Erlang thought of this and suddenly asked: "Your second sister-in-law and Miaomiao haven't eaten either, right?"

Little Zhou also felt that her mother-in-law had gone too far, but at this moment she could only bite the bullet and explain: "My mother didn't let us call us second sister-in-law. She also said that our families have been separated, and if we want to eat, we have to pay for food."

.”

During lunch, I specially ordered four of their rooms, saying that if I wanted to serve dinner in the future, I would either hand over rice or food.

Cheng Erlang suddenly became furious: "Why is mother like this!"

His eyes widened with anger, and his chest kept heaving. Even if his mother did this, his father would not follow her advice. Couldn't the things they handed in these days be exchanged for a meal?

It was clearly a sultry dog ​​day, but he seemed to be in the cold winter.

Cheng Erlang turned his head in despair and glanced at the main room, where the door was closed. He murmured for a long time, and finally gave up the idea of ​​going to his parents for an explanation and walked straight into his own room.

He is a good grown man, but looking at his back, he has a feeling of vicissitudes of life.

Little Zhou was so sad that he turned around and went back to the house and said to Cheng Silang: "You see, my parents are like this to the second brother, and they don't treat us well if we can't protect everything, so we should hurry up and save money to build a house."

…

Cheng Erlang opened the door and entered the house gloomily.

Before I could see the room clearly, I felt a heavy pendant on my thigh. I lowered my head and met Cheng Miaomiao's dark eyes. She said excitedly: "Dad, you are finally back. When will we go to Xinjiang?"

House to eat?”

Cheng Erlang was a little confused: "??"

He easily picked up the child, looked at Ye Ning in confusion and said, "The foundation of the new house has not even been completed. It will probably take a few days before we can eat."

Ye Ning put down the half-tied bandage and said, "It's okay. Oh, by the way, did you go well this morning?"

"Speaking of which, that went very well!"

Cheng Erlang immediately forgot about the depressing things he had just done, and kept talking about going to see the engineering team in the morning. The engineering team was free, and he went to Lao Dengtou to buy bricks. He just had extra bricks, and the construction could start tomorrow.

When Cheng Miaomiao heard this, he immediately clapped his hands: "Wow, Dad is so awesome!"

Then won’t she be able to be Dr. Zeng’s neighbor soon?

Thinking of this, she complained angrily: "Grandma won't let us have lunch. We are hungry and need to drink water to fill our stomachs!"

How abominable.

The more Cheng Miaomiao thought about it, the angrier she became. She drank three large glasses of water smelling the fish smell!

When Cheng Erlang heard this, his eyes immediately dimmed, a trace of struggle and pain flashed in his eyes, and his mouth was bitter. At this time, he suddenly felt his hand being gently held by someone, and it felt warm and cool.

Ye Ning looked at him with a smile and said, "It's okay, Erlang."

He said in a slow and authentic tone: "We can set up the kitchen and stove today, so that we can provide food when they start construction tomorrow. We can buy rice and vegetables temporarily, and we can also borrow the stove from Dr. Zeng's house."

In addition to paying wages to hire someone to build a house specifically, you also need to provide two meals a day.

Ye Ning originally thought of cooking it at home and sending it over, but now it seems that this way is not possible, so it would be more convenient to set up the stove in the new home in advance and buy an iron pot.

You can buy rice, flour, grains, oils, vegetables, etc. from people in the nearby village.

Listening to her talk about what to do next, what to do first, and what to do next, Cheng Erlang gradually calmed down.

Cheng Miaomiao held her chin in her hands and listened to their words with eyes flickering.

In her mind, she couldn't help but follow Ye Ning's words and imagine the future family scene. The more she listened, the more excited she became. Her little face flushed with joy. She jumped off the stool and reached out to grab their hands.

"Mom and dad, hurry up! We are going to our new home now!"

Cheng Erlang and Ye Ning looked at each other helplessly.

He knelt down and picked up little Miaomiao, while Ye Ning picked up the little straw hat on the table and put it on her, saying, "Let's go."

Cheng Miaomiao tried her best to poke her head out from under the hat that was one size too big.

When I saw my father and mother wearing the same straw hat, I became even more happy. She didn’t even care about not having food. She put her arms around my father’s neck and said enthusiastically: “Let’s go, let’s go!”

This is the time when the sun is shining.

Cheng Erlang first sent the two of them to Dr. Zeng's house, then turned and left, preparing to call the people from the engineering team to come over and do the work for half a day.

Ye Ning stood at the entrance of the courtyard, waving to him and shouting: "Be careful on the road."

Before he finished speaking, Cheng Miaomiao's milky and milky shouts rang out happily.

"Doctor Zeng, Brother Ziji! I'm here!"

Ye Ning turned around and saw her opening the courtyard door and running in in a familiar manner, not treating this place as someone else's home.

Ye Ning smiled helplessly. She had only come here two or three times, and she didn't know how she became so familiar with everyone.

Cheng Miaomiao carefully passed through the bamboo basket on the ground and ran into the main room.

He's so small, but he makes a lot of noise.

Dr. Zeng was picking herbs in the medicine basket. When he heard the sound, he looked up and saw that her head was covered in hot sweat. He chuckled and said, "Why is it here at this time? It's noon and you don't mind getting too hot."

As he spoke, he clapped his hands, stood up, poured a cup of herbal tea and handed it to her.

Cheng Miaomiao happened to be thirsty, so she picked up the water cup and started to drink.

"Dr. Zeng, I'm sorry to disturb you at this time." Ye Ning also walked in and explained his purpose, "Our new home is next door. I would like to borrow your kitchen for the next two days. Isn't it convenient?"

"My grandma is bad and won't feed her!"

Cheng Miaomiao was filled with righteous indignation.
