Chapter 337
After tossing and turning, Mu Yi actually fell asleep when it was almost dawn. When he woke up, there were many fellow villagers talking loudly outside. Looking out from the wall, the familiar minibus had its roof exposed.
.It looks like Fatty Jiang has come down the mountain.
Mu Yi quickly got up and prepared to get some water to wash his face.
"Handsome guy, you've got some rest. I'm about to come up and call you." Jin Zhimo greeted Mu Yi with a smile.
"Get some rest. Jin Zhimo, please get some water for me to wash my face."
"It's already poured. Go and wash it quickly. Once you've washed it, put your things in the car. Fatty Jiang will transfer soon. There's a car of people on the mountain waiting for him to pull it down."
As Mu walked towards Jin Zhimo's room, he asked, "Is there a seat?"
"There are plenty of seats, you can go up alone."
Mu Yi quickly washed his face. Jin Zhimo helped him move his things to the car. Mu Yi quickly took out fifteen yuan and handed it to Jin Zhimo.
Jin Zhimo took the money. "Well, I'm sorry."
"What's there to be embarrassed about? It should be given to me. I'm the one who's embarrassed."
Fatty Jiang: "Get in the car quickly. There are people waiting on the mountain."
Get in the car and go up the mountain.
…
Get off the bus and go back to Varado.
The weather below the mountain is still very cold and foggy. But when we reach the mountain, it is a different scene. There is actually sun. Although it is still a bit cold, the feeling of clear skies is still very pleasant.
When I came to the countryside, I saw that the door of the township government was open, but there was no one inside. Even the door of Secretary Lamu’s house was closed. I took off the key and opened the door, and there was a thick smell of mold.
The smell changed, came to Mu Yi's face, and penetrated into Mu Yi's nostrils fiercely. He quickly put down his things and opened all the windows. Then he quickly took out the cotton wool and cushions on the bed, hung them on the wire for drying clothes, and blew them up.
.
After doing all this, he wanted to start a fire again, but the small firewood placed in the cardboard box was also a little damp and moldy. He had to take the cardboard box to the courtyard dam and pour it out to dry.
We still need to clean up the house. We need to bring some water back for easy cleaning.
Although he was alone, Mu Yi walked quietly on the land of Varado, and the pure mountain breeze kissed his face. The feeling made him feel particularly enjoyable. He took a ladle of Varado's water and sent it to him.
Bring it to your lips and take a careful sip. It's sweet, cold, and sweet...
When Mu Yi returned to the township government with water, he found that Secretary Lamu and his wife suddenly appeared out of nowhere.
"Secretary Lamu, my dear, hello!"
"Happy New Year to Mu Yi!" Secretary Lamu greeted Mu Yi with a smile.
"Why did you come up so early?" Nanny asked Mu Yi doubtfully.
"I can't do anything at home, so I go to work."
Secretary Lamu: "Oh. It's true. When you grow up, you can't find anything to do. During festivals, you either play cards or drink. You neither play cards nor drink, so it's really not easy to play."
Mu put the water back into the house and came out to chat with Secretary Lamu and the others.
Ma’am: “Is everything okay at home?”
"all good."
"Are mom and dad okay?"
"fine."
…
After some "concern".
Secretary Lamu: "Are you drying these small firewood to start a fire?"
Mu Yi: "Yeah."
Secretary Lamu: "You'd better go to my place and pick up two burned charcoals to start the fire."
Ma'am: "I've already turned on the fire. When we came back from playing outside, we saw quilts drying in the government courtyard. We all thought it was strange. Lamu looked at everyone's doors and windows and they were all closed. You were the only one.
The window was open, and there seemed to be something there. He said you must have come up, but he didn’t see you there.”
Mu Yi quickly explained, "I just went to fetch water. The house is too humid, and many places are moldy."
Secretary Lamu: "That's how it is on the mountain. Then go and get busy. You won't have to do anything for lunch. Just eat some at my place today."
Mu Yi thanked Secretary Lamu very gratefully. He picked up the red-hot briquettes and went to light his stove. Then he began to clean the door and window glass.
Although the rooms, desks, chairs, etc. here do not belong to you. You only have the right to use them, not ownership. But after all, they are all things you use. Touch here, wipe everywhere. Wash here, wipe everywhere.
It's really kind and pleasant.
Mu Yi was like a little bird, humming happily.
By the time he had tidied the house inside and out, the sun was almost setting. Although the temperature was not high, the strong sunlight, ultraviolet rays, and wind still caused the cotton wool and quilts to be cleaned.
The dampness and musty smell are almost gone.
Mu Yi quickly took them back. Then he took out the quilt cover and sheets he brought back when he went down the mountain and spread them out. The hut suddenly seemed like a "home" and it looked quite warm. The fire in the stove also burned brightly and was glowing red.
The firelight illuminated the room clearly.
"Mu Yi, have you finished cleaning up? If so, come over and have dinner." The maid stood outside her house and shouted to Mu Yi at the top of her voice to eat.
Mu Yi quickly walked to the door and answered loudly, "I'll be here soon."
Mu Yi picked up the plastic basin, picked up some of the vegetables he had brought, and put them in the basin to give them to them. When he saw the meat he had cut, he was about to cut some for them. But maybe it was placed in the plastic
It must be because the bag is airtight. The blood in the flesh has seeped out, and there seems to be some peculiar smell. He thought for a while that it might not be a good idea to send it to Secretary Lamu's house like this, so he gave up the idea.
. Quickly, he poured some salt out and touched the meat. Then he picked up a "dog beating stick" - a bamboo pole. This bamboo pole was used every time he went to the countryside. If he had to pass by a place with dogs,
He would pick one up and hold it in his hand to prevent being attacked by dogs. After he was out of "danger", he took it back to the house and put it away. Originally it could also be used as a "fire" material. But since he and Wen Qingfeng
We ate together and didn't get angry very much. So, there were a lot of "dog sticks" accumulated in the house.
Put one end of the "dog beating stick" on the window sill, pass the other end through the rope buckle to tie the meat, and put it on the back of the chair. Move the meat close to the stove and use the heat of the stove to smoke it to reduce the moisture in the meat.
, extend the storage time.
I saw Mu Yi coming over with a pot of vegetables.
Secretary Lamu quickly said: "What are you doing with it? I have some food here. You can keep it for yourself."
The maid also said: "That's right. We still have food here."
Mu Yi: "It's a little thoughtful. I brought a lot. These vegetables were all bought yesterday and they are very fresh."
Maid: “Well, it’s very refreshing to see it.” She said with a smile and took Mu Yi’s basin.
In the joyful atmosphere, Mu Yi finally had a hot meal. In fact, it seemed that he had only drank a little water from morning to now. He was really hungry. He actually ate other people's lamu
The secretary had two big bowls full of rice, and he ate a lot of sausages, bacon, and soup. His stomach was full from the food.
After eating and drinking, he got up and prepared to help clean up.
Maid: "Go and have a rest. There is nothing to clean up here. I can finish it by myself."
Secretary Lamu: "Go and have a good rest."
