After crossing, start from the courtyard

Chapter 153 Chapter 144

At sunset, orange, bright red and wine red afterglow intertwined, absolutely brilliant.Afterwards, it started to get dark.As night fell, whoops and screams echoed around the cabin.

As the wooden door clicked, Xu Erzhu wanted to break in, but Xu Erzhu pushed open the heavy door, holding a few thin quilts in his hands.

"I got a few sets from home, they're a little thin, don't mind."

The crumpled quilt was covered with stains, and after taking a handful, there was still a faint smell of urine mixed in the air.

He Yu pinched her nose and shook her head, the musty smell on the bedding was really offensive.

"Brother Erzhu, I spread the quilt on the wooden board."

"Xiaoyu, let's go live at my house tonight! My mother is rare for someone with status, and you can do magic, cook, and medical skills. The people from the city are different. You know a lot of things. Read There are many books."

"Is there room for you to live?"

He and his old mother were the only ones at Xu Erzhu's house. His father left early, and he was the only pillar in the house. The house was considered good in the village, at least there were still a lot of furniture.

"My house, I will sleep with my mother when the time comes, and you and Xiaoling share a room, that's enough."

He Yu nodded, thinking it was okay, but he liked the new bedding and didn't want Xiaoling to suffer.

"Excuse me, is there any new bedding?"

Xu Erzhu was taken aback, there was one at home, but he only used it when he married his wife, Xu Erzhu hesitated for a moment.

Seeing that he was embarrassed, He Yu didn't force it, "Brother Erzhu, do you know where there is a place that sells bedding? Tonight, let's make do with it. Tomorrow morning, we will find a place to live and buy new furniture and supplies."

"Xiao Yu, my family has it, just because I'm afraid you might dislike it."

Xu Erzhu was hesitant, and he didn't know how many times he had to fight fiercely in his heart before he said that he had a new bedding at home.

"Come on, go to my house, and I'll get it for you."

It's easy to say at the moment, but what He Yu doesn't know is that this is the wedding three-piece suit his mother prepared for him.

Following Xu Erzhu, he arrived at a decent house within a few minutes. Although the sky was already dark, He Yu could see the surrounding landscape quite clearly. Compared with Mei San's family, the environment here is much better. Well, at least it looks like a home.

After entering the inner room, an aunt was about to fall asleep. Hearing the movement in the room, she slowly got off the bed and walked out of the room. She saw three figures, one of which was her son, and she also noticed the girl next to her son.

This girl looks juicy, and she looks like a cultured person.

"Er Zhu, where is the girl?"

As soon as the words fell, He Yu called out, "Hello, Auntie."

I don't know what He Yu did, it seems that Er Zhu's mother was very dissatisfied with his arrival.

"Who is this? Why do you bring everyone home?"

Like other aunts, Erzhu's mother is very bitter and mean, and she doesn't like others to take advantage of her, but it is in stark contrast to Xu Erzhu's honest and honest appearance.

"Mom, these are my friends. They plan to settle here for a long time. I will take them to the village chief tomorrow. Today, let them live in our house first."

"In the house? Don't want two more pairs of chopsticks?"

The aunt came to He Yu, turned around, and said, "Young man, you can sleep outside, our house is only this big, there is not enough sleep."

"I think this girl is not bad, she matches my Er Zhu."

Xu Erzhu quickly explained, "Mom, Xiaoling is Xiaoyu's wife, and it has nothing to do with me. Don't talk to me when you see a girl."

"Ah? Married people? How can we let them into our house?"

Seeing how the aunt refused, He Yu said, "Auntie, we don't live for nothing, we will give money."

Money seemed to be a lot easier to do in the countryside. When the aunt heard that she would give him the money, without further ado, she asked He Yu to sit down and poured two glasses of water.

One second, she was still like an old hag, and the next second, she became a passionate aunt.

"Young man, what's your name? Where do you come from? How did you know my Erzhu family?"

"Have you eaten yet?"

"There's a strong wind blowing outside. It's probably going to rain tonight. It's cold at night. Put on more quilts."

Erzhu's mother became enthusiastic all of a sudden, which made He Yu a little uncomfortable.

"Auntie, the boy's name is He Yu, and next to me is my wife, Miao Ling."

"Little girl, the name sounds good, it sounds good, I'm going to make room for you, you sleep in my room, my room has good lighting."

Erzhu's mother took the bag from Xiaoling's hand enthusiastically, pulled it cheekily, and peeked at it several times.

"Mom, let Xiao Yu and his wife live in my room. My room is bigger and the bed is bigger. The two of us can sleep together at night."

To be honest, He Yu didn't want to live in Xu Erzhu's house, because Xu Erzhu smelled of sweat and feet, He Yu was afraid that Xiaoling wouldn't be able to bear it.

"It doesn't matter, brother Er Zhu, it's like living in my aunt's house, as long as there is a place to shelter from the wind and rain."

"That's right. It would be nice to have a shelter from the wind and rain. If you go outside, you might be hit by the wind and rain. It's not worth it, and you'll be frozen."

The auntie introduced He Yu into her room. Although the auntie had a bit of a mouthful, she had to say that the room was very tidy, and it also had a fragrant vanilla smell, which was different from the rural flavor of the countryside.

"Xiao Yu, you guys rest first, I'll get you quilts."

He Yu was afraid that Xiaoling would sleep strangely, so he said to Xu Erzhu, "Brother Erzhu, can you change the sheet, I'm afraid Xiaoling won't be used to sleeping."

"it is good."

Erzhu's mother who was standing aside glared at Erzhu, but Xu Erzhu still agreed.

If it was in the past, Er Zhu's mother would definitely not agree. After all, this can provide accommodation, and it would be nice to have a house to live in. She is picky and picky, and she has to change the bedding.

Xu Erzhu saw that his mother didn't say much, so he rummaged through the cabinet and found a relatively new set of quilts, which he would use when he got married. Erzhu's mother specially put this quilt on the top floor.

As soon as Xu Erzhu took it out, Erzhu's mother embraced a stack of quilts excitedly, "Erzhu, what are you doing? This is what you will use when you marry a wife. How can you entertain other people!"

"I spent a lot of money to get this quilt. It's a pity that you covered it for others like this!"

"Mom, this is the only new set. We don't have any new quilts or new sheets in our closet."

"Then you can't take the three-piece suit you used for your wedding! This thing cost me a lot of money. Depending on how you send the money out, this quilt may be covered for several years, but it cannot be covered for others for the first time. ah!"

Erzhu's mother disagreed with this brand-new quilt for He Yu to cover her life and death. Seeing Erzhu arguing with his mother, He Yu hurriedly pulled Xu Erzhu away and said to his mother, "Auntie, I won't cover your brand-new quilt for nothing. How much is this quilt, I'll just pay!"

Erzhu's mother took a look, and found that the young man had a big tone. The quilt cost 20 yuan, and she specially made it for Erzhu.

"Okay, then you can buy this set of quilts! It costs 30 yuan, no bargaining! Otherwise, don't be disgusted, and cover my set, but today you need to pay for accommodation to sleep, a total of 40 yuan! "

Erzhu's mother directly opened her mouth, asking for 40 yuan per bite. This quilt, He Yu, was only covered for one night. When he found a place to stay, he would buy a new one.

"Mom, other people just stay and cover for one night. This quilt will not get dirty, and Xiaoyu is my friend. Don't do this. Your 40 yuan is enough to buy several new sets. We don't need to earn that kind of money." money."

"You don't know how much the set of quilts for your wedding custom-made by mom herself cost? This is already the lowest price, and they want to live with us, so they can't eat and drink for free. It costs 10 yuan. Wildness is justified, otherwise throw them outside and let the screen blow and rain, if they catch a cold, it will cost more than 10 yuan for medicine."

Erzhu's mother pointed it out directly, and didn't take He Yu seriously at all. After all, he was just an outsider. If he wanted a house, he had to spend money, and if he wanted a quilt, he had to spend money. In the mass grave, you might wake up early in the morning and don't know where you went to sleep.

Xiaoling was a little frightened, her fingers were already dark outside, and coupled with the screaming sound, it made people tremble.

"Light rain..."

"Auntie, Brother Erzhu, we'll just give you the money!"

When Er Zhu heard this, he quickly said, "I can't do it, I can't do it."

Erzhu's mother grabbed Erzhu, winked, and signaled him not to talk too much, but who knew that Xu Erzhu still insisted on pulling his mother aside, and whispered in her ear, "Mom, Xiao Yu came from above. Improve our village, improve the economic level of our village, won't you hurt others by doing so?"

"What kind of official is the person from above? If he is an official, you can still receive him. The news of our village head is better than ours. will welcome you!"

"If he is an official, do you think he looks like this? If you say he is an official, I really don't believe you said he is from the city. He looks a little bit, but it is definitely not what you call it. The people above, do you think that if the people above can meet you, they want you to lead the way?"

"Mom, people who are officials are relatively low-key. They are the kind who work for our people and don't leave their names."

Erzhu still wanted to explain, but Erzhu's mother interrupted, "Stop talking."

Er Zhu's mother frowned, and turned to look at He Yu, "Either you pay to sleep, or you just leave."

I don't know what brother Erzhu said to his mother. Erzhu's mother was so angry, but He Yu didn't say anything at first, and promised to give money.

"Mom, they are my friends, how can you do this? It was the same with Sanniang before. I just helped Sanniang and her family, and I didn't want to marry her. You insisted on keeping me away from Sanniang. You also know that in our village People are not willing to help their family."

"Besides, there is a 6-year-old girl in their family and a baby who is waiting to be fed. If no one takes care of them, they will starve to death in that shabby house long ago! Would you like to see two fresh lives? Disappear in the world like this?"

Erzhu's mother was not happy, Mei Sanniang, a crazy woman known to everyone in the village, everyone knew that the origin of this crazy woman was unknown.

Erzhu cares about an irrelevant person all day long, which is really worrying. Erzhu's mother is worried that her only child will fall in love with this lunatic. Coupled with the gossip in the village, Erzhu's mother tries not to let Erzhu get close to Mei Sanniang.

"I told you that the reason why you don't get close to Mei Sanniang is to avoid suspicion. Don't you know what everyone is talking about behind your back as a big man?"

Xu Erzhu was not interested in these at all. He knew that Mei Sanniang's family needed help, and Mei Xue and Guitang were very obedient. He only knew that if he didn't help, no one would help their family.

"mom!"

Erzhu's mother shook her head helplessly, and the more she thought about it, the more angry she was. She chose a good wife for her son, but he didn't want it, and insisted on rubbing against Mei Sanniang. After all, who dares to marry a person who is for a lunatic, even if there are few men in the village, as a woman in the village, she also hopes to marry a good man.

If you have money to send out all day long, who can stand it.

"I don't want outsiders to see our family's jokes. Don't talk about it. He Yu, you can pay if you want to live. There is no need to discuss it. Even my son can't make the decision. This house is mine, and my son was also raised by me. His father left early, and I pissed and pooped, and the child grew up, turning his arms out."

"What kind of words!"

He Yu didn't want to cause trouble, so he took out a wad of money and handed it to Er Zhu's mother.

Er Zhu's mother took the wad of money tremblingly, a little unbelievable, and even glanced at He Yu in disbelief.

She didn't see any hesitation in He Yu's eyes, they were casual and open-minded eyes, as if money was just a stack of blank paper.

"I've given you money, so I can sleep, but the things in the house are not allowed to be moved around or damaged, and the damage will be ten times the compensation."

He Yu snorted softly, "Okay, I'll pay you ten times the damage. If someone did it on purpose, it's a different story."

He Yu's tone was a bit harsher, but it didn't displease Er Zhu's mother, on the contrary, he felt that this young man was very handsome.

"Okay, it's a deal."

Seeing that Er Zhu's mother was not fussing, He Yu sent her out of the house.

"Come and sleep early." Erzhu's mother left a word for Erzhu before leaving the room.

Erzhu sighed, there was really no way, his mother dragged him all the way, Xu Erzhu understood what his mother wanted, and knew that it was all for him and for his own good.

However, being too pampered would be self-defeating.

"My mother is like this. She has worked hard all her life for this family, just for my son. She hopes that I will live a good life and marry a good wife. Seeing that Sanniang and I are getting close, she doesn't want this to happen. People outnumbered me and said I was walking with a madman."

He Yu patted Xu Erzhu's shoulder lightly, and said in a low voice, "It's okay, it's thanks to you for taking us in, otherwise, we would still be wandering around the village!"

"And your mother is just out of intention, for the sake of the family, if there is a stranger in my family, I will be vigilant, so don't blame your mother."

Xu Erzhu didn't expect He Yu to be so reasonable. Sure enough, he should make friends with this kind of people, and he was right.

"Xiao Yu, don't worry, I will take you to see the village head tomorrow and arrange accommodation."

"it is good."

"By the way, Brother Er Zhu, it rained lightly all night, will wild mushrooms appear in the mountains tomorrow?"

Erzhu was taken aback, "Are you really going up the mountain? The road in the morning is the slipperiest, and anyone who doesn't pay attention to their feet will fall to the ground."
