What a surprise. I actually met an "old cousin" here. Although he is not a relative in the strict sense, this person is more about being "accommodating". In this Valado Township, Mu Yiye has no relatives.

Yes. Having an old cousin for nothing is a happy thing after all.

After resting for a while, I picked up the dirty clothes I had changed in a basin and went to the ravine where the water was carried to wash them. I found a relatively flat stone three to five meters below the well, put down the basin, and took out the washing powder.

, took off his sandals and plunged into the water.

Ouch. Don’t underestimate the water in the mountain ravine. In addition to being clear and cold, it is also very powerful. Mu Yi quickly stood on the stone. He carefully observed the situation beside the ravine and chose a

Clean the appropriate location.

After washing, maybe because of the inconvenience of using water, Muyi filled a basin with water, then put some clothes in the basin, only put the washing powder outside the basin, and just carried the washing powder.

The water has returned.

Back in the compound, maybe it's because the sun is too hot? Secretary Lamu and the others have moved the "battlefield" for playing mahjong to the room of the township head of Ke. The other people don't know where they went. The entire township

The government compound gives people an empty feeling.

Mu Yi dried the clothes and took the remaining water in the basin back to the room. He began to scrub the tables, chairs, doors and windows. Soon, the water became very turbid.

Idle time is idle. Mu Yi brings water - scrubs - brings water... but also tidies up his room so that "the windows are bright and clean".

I just finished packing the wood and found that I was lacking too many things overnight. Briquettes, buckets, pillows, brooms, dustpans, mops... It seems that I will have to do a lot of shopping when I go to Guoshen Township tomorrow.

After working for such a long time, Mu Yi felt a little thirsty and hungry. He turned on the light switch, but the light was still off as before. He really couldn't understand that it was impossible for the wire to be broken on such a sunny day.

Huh? So there is no electricity? Even if he wants to use his small rice cooker to boil some water for drinking, there is no way.

He thought to himself that he would go to his colleagues and ask for some water. Who should he ask for?

On the left is Xu Yingxiong, but there is no one there; on the right is Pan Jianguo, but there is no one either. These "neighbors" are not here, so it seems that we can only look far away from the near.

Mu Yi came to Chu Yanhong's door and knocked on the door. The door opened from the inside. At first glance, Chu Yanhong, Mu Ping, Ma Buqi and Yun Dajian were sitting on a small bench, surrounded by a

Poker is being played at the small table.

Chu Yanhong: "Mu Yi, lift up the chair and sit down by yourself."

Mu Yi: "Sister Chu, do you have boiled water here? I want to drink some."

Chu Yanhong pointed to the water bottle next to her. "Do you know if there is anything left in it? Just put the cup by the window. You can take the cup and pour it yourself. If there is no water, you can scoop some water into the teapot and turn on the fire.

Come and drink.”

Mu Yi thanked Sister Chu and went to pour some water. He was lucky. There was still some water in the water bottle. He poured a full cup into the cup and the temperature was just right. Mu Yi drank it all in one gulp.

Okay. There was still half a cup of water left.

Yun Dajian: "Muyi, pass me the water and take a sip."

Mu Yi: "Brother Yun, I just drank from this cup."

Yun Dajian: "It's okay. I feel thirsty when I see you drinking. Please give it to me to drink first."

Mu Ping: "Yun Dajian, why are you so careless?"

Yun Dajian giggled "hehehe". Mu Yiyi handed him the half glass of water.

At this time Ma Buqi spoke. "Fifth sister, are you hungry?"

Chu Yanhong: "I'm not very hungry. Mu Ping, are you hungry?"

Mu Ping: "I'm not very hungry either."

Yun Dajian: "I'm hungry, I'm hungry."

Mu Ping: "Yun Dajian, are you the reincarnation of a starving ghost? We all eat together, and we are not hungry yet. Why are you hungry? If you are hungry, just go back and cook for yourself.

.”

Yun Dajian: "Fifth sister, the fried potatoes you make are very delicious, especially the sea pepper noodles. I don't know if there are any more?"

Chu Yanhong: "It seems there is a little bit left. I will bring some more up when I get down."

Ma Buqi: "Fifth sister, let's fry some potatoes to eat."

Chu Yanhong: "Okay. Then you go peel the potato."

Ma Buqi looked at Mu Yi, and then said: "Mu Yi, you see we are all playing cards..."

Mu Yi understood that Ma Buqi meant that they were all playing cards and had no time, so he was asked to peel potatoes. In fact, Mu Yi would take the initiative to do it without Ma Buqi saying it. It was just that Jing Ma Buqi said this,

It felt like Ma Buqi was instructing Mu Yi to do things. This made Mu Yi feel a little uncomfortable.

Mu Yi did not reply directly, but said to Chu Yanhong: "Fifth sister, you continue to play cards. I will peel the potatoes. Where do you put your potatoes?"

Hearing what Mu Yi said, Mu Ping took over and said, "If you don't want to ride a horse, you are just too lazy. It was obviously you who asked for fried potatoes, but you refused to peel the potatoes yourself. You asked Mu Yi to peel them. Look.

They just cut it without saying anything. You, you..."

I don’t know if what Ma Buqi just said was intentional or unintentional. However, as a Mu Yi who has just started working and has only been in Varado Township for almost twenty-four hours, he faced

In this new environment, facing these unfamiliar colleagues, he seemed particularly cautious and sensitive. He felt that every word spoken by others might have a "special meaning" and some "overtones". He was afraid that

He accidentally "offended someone". Especially this horse does not play chess, which Xu Yingxiong said "does not ride a horse". What's more, he broke someone's bucket today. So even if he doesn't like horses in his heart.

It's a bad behavior, but I still try to restrain myself.

Ma Buqi said with a smile: "I am old. Except for me, who is the oldest here, you are not a young boy. You must know how to respect the elderly."

Yun Dajian: "If you don't ride a horse, you are really an old man, an old revolutionary, an old man who never dies, an old thing who relies on his old age to sell his old age..."

Ma Buqi was a little upset that Yun Dajian said this to him. He immediately retorted: "Yun Dajian, I think you are not Dajian, you are a eunuch. If you are not an eunuch, how can you play with a girlfriend and let him go? The whole

Everyone in Zhongguozhuang knows that you are a eunuch."

Ma Buqi's words were too vicious. When Mu saw Yun Dajian being so angry at Ma Buqi, he started to tremble. He thought that Yun Dajian would immediately throw away the cards in his hand and pounce on Ma Buqi with punches.

After kicking each other, the two of them fought for 300 rounds in the township government courtyard.

The result was not like this. Yun Dajian turned his head and said quietly: "I won't give you ordinary knowledge."

Yun Dajian's words angered Ma Buqi again. Ma Buqi threw the cards in his hand directly into Yun Dajian's face, and pointed his index finger directly at Yun Dajian. "You call that guy "I"

?If you have the guts, try saying it again!"

Yun Dajian probably didn't expect Ma Buqi's reaction to be so strong, so he quickly said: "I didn't call you Lao Tzu, I called the dog Lao Tzu, okay."

This was obviously calling Ma Buqi a dog. Seeing that the battle between the two sides was about to break out, Chu Yanhong spoke up.

"How old are you two? If you are playing cards, just play cards well. If you don't want to play, just go back and play behind closed doors! Don't chatter here."

Mu Ping looked at them silently without saying a word, and just picked up the cards on the ground.

Mu Yi: "Fifth Sister, the potatoes are peeled."

Chu Yanhong: "Okay. I'll cut the potatoes right now. Ma Buqi, go and pour some of your clear oil. I don't have much here."

Mu Yi saw Ma Buqi and did not move. Thinking that he had some oil with him, he quickly stood up. "Fifth Sister, I have it over there. I'll go and bring it over."

Before Chu Yanhong agreed, Mu Yi had already run to pick it up.

When he brought it over, Chu Yanhong's pot had already been filled with clear oil. It was smoking. He understood that this was to disperse the foam in the clear oil. Because only by heating the clear oil to disperse the foam, the oil

The taste is just right.

Everyone happily ate fried potatoes and chatted happily.

Chu Yanhong: "Mu Yi. You don't have briquettes yet. How will you eat these days?"

Mu Yi: "Sister Chu, I just don't know what to do yet."

Chu Yanhong: "Why don't you just eat with us these days."

Mu Ping: "That's right, brother, just follow Fifth Sister and us to eat. You only need to be responsible for carrying water."

Ma Buqi: "Oh. Then I will come and eat with you."

Mu Ping: "You have a beautiful idea. We won't eat with you. Mu Yi is my younger brother, so naturally I, the older sister, have to take care of him."

Mu Yi was really touched. This man was made of iron, and his rice was made of steel. He would starve if he didn't eat a meal. There was no electricity, no coal, and it was impossible to cook raw rice. Fortunately, two sisters took him in temporarily.
