Reborn Sanitary

Finally arrived at the edge of the forest, Xu Tao heaved a sigh of relief, pulled the carriage, jumped out of the carriage, jumped a few times, took off his hands and rubbed his stiff fingers vigorously, "Zhang Liang, move quickly, it's too cold, Don't catch a cold when you go home."

Xu Tao was busy rubbing his hands while greeting Zhang Liang. Zhang Liang looked up at Xu Tao stiffly, "Xu Tao, why do I feel like my butt is stuck to the car."

Xu Tao looked at Zhang Liang who was sitting motionless in the car with some dumbfounding, stepped forward and dragged him down, "Wait a minute, my legs are numb." Zhang Liang yelled and pressed Xu Tao's shoulder, Xu Tao turned around. Seeing Zhang Liang's bluish but twitched facial features, he couldn't help but smile, and squatted down, "Left leg or right leg." "Right leg" Xu Tao slightly pressed Zhang Liang's numb body Regardless of Zhang Liang's yelling, he rubbed his right leg vigorously, until Zhang Liang grinned and said that it was no longer numb, and then stood up.

Pulling Zhang Liang's arm, "Run around twice, it's too cold." Without waiting for Zhang Liang to answer, he pulled Zhang Liang to run around the big tree next to him for a few laps, feeling that his body was moving, and Zhang Liang's expression changed. He stopped when he was no longer blue, "how is it, is it better?"

Xu Tao looked at Zhang Liang with a smile, and his face relaxed. If Zhang Liang was frozen, he would be ashamed to see his fat aunt when he went back. Zhang Liang stretched his arms and legs and grinned, "Okay."

Xu Tao went to the side of the car and took off the hemp rope and tied it around his waist, then took the ax in his hand and glanced at Zhang Liang, "You go to the Internet cafe, and I'll cut down the dead tree."

Zhang Liang looked at the hanging net in his hand, then at Xu Tao, hesitantly said, "How about I cut firewood with you first."

Xu Tao shook his head, "No, just an axe, you go, I'm hungry for bird meat too." Zhang Liang narrowed his eyes with a smile for a moment, and nodded vigorously, "Well, I'll hang the net and wait until I'm done. I'll chop firewood with you." Before Xu Tao could react, he ran into the woods happily.

Xu Tao looked at the figure of Zhang Liang running wildly, with a smile in his eyes, he turned around with an ax to look for dead branches, walking all the way, saw the dead trees falling on the ground covered by snow and exposing branches, Xu Tao Frowning slightly, these dead branches buried in the snow will smoke when they go home and burn them. They are not allowed to be dried. It is best to find a big tree that is dry but not fallen.

After wandering around for a long time, he finally found a completely dead tree trunk in the middle of the forest that could be hugged by one person. Taking off his thick jacket, he picked up the ax tremblingly, and struck the bottom of the dead tree with the blade again and again. The muffled sound of bang bang reverberated in the woods. Gradually Xu Tao found the rhythm, one after another When Zhang Liang hung up the net and beat four or five farts with a slingshot to find Xu Tao, Xu Tao's head was steaming and his face was flushed.

Zhang Liang started to shout from a distance, "Xu Tao, Xu Tao, look, look, we can eat birds at night."

Xu Tao stopped what he was doing, took a breath and raised his head to see Zhang Liang who was running over, showing a slight smile, holding an ax in one hand, and waving his arms in the other, Zhang Liang ran to Xu Tao's side, and gave Xu Tao the skewered fart Look, Xu Tao smiled slightly, "Okay, let's satisfy our hunger tonight."

Zhang Liangxian looked up at Xu Tao after posing, and put the bird in Xu Tao's hand, "You take a break, I'll come." After speaking, he directly grabbed the ax from Xu Tao's hand, Xu Tao was really tired, feeling that both arms were numb A little shivering but not struggling, he picked up the big padded jacket on the ground and wrapped it around his body, and leaned against the nearby tree to adjust his breathing. It was cold and cold, and his chest felt a little sore. Rubbing his chest, slowly inhaling and exhaling to adjust.

The two took shifts to chop dead trees. Xu Tao picked up a lot of dead branches during the shift change. He didn't know how long he had been working. When he finally cut all the dead trees and loaded them into the car, he was already hungry. Xu Tao jumped on the horse and said, "Hurry up!" Go back, the sky is cloudy again."

Zhang Liang frowned and followed into the carriage, "Hurry up, I'm going to starve to death." Xu Tao waved his horsewhip, and the carriage started to move slowly. Even the cold and hungry two returned home with bruised faces. Xu Yan hurriedly went out to watch several times, and finally waited for the two of them, ignoring the firewood on the carriage, and dragged the two of them into the kitchen without daring to let them sit by the kitchen pit. At the door, he ran out again and brought back a basin of snow to put at the two of them's feet, "Hurry up, rub your hands well, and your face and ears, if they freeze, you will suffer old crimes."

After finishing speaking, he turned and ran to the stove, turned on the fire, turned around and took out two eggs, two handfuls of noodles, and the two stove pits on the left and right from the bowl shelf, and while the water was boiling, he cut a large piece Old ginger, throw it into the big pot on the left, and when you hear the sound of the big pot on the right, you beat the eggs into the pot. After a while, two bowls of ginger soup and two bowls of hot noodle soup come out of the pot.

Xu Yan handed the ginger soup to the two of them, "Drink it quickly, it will warm your stomach and relieve the cold, and you will eat later, so you don't have a stomachache."

Xu Tao took the big bowl, blew it, and drank it slowly, while Zhang Liang stared at the big bowl of noodles and pouted, "Sister, I don't like to drink ginger soup, I don't get a cold or stomach ache , I want to eat."

Xu Yan squatted in front of Zhang Liang, "Er Gouzi, be obedient, you drink, and the elder sister will pop Gabeng beans for you at night."

Zhang Liang's eyes lit up and he could see the spicy ginger soup. He sniffled and muttered something in a low voice. Xu Yan thought carefully about Zhang Liang's words and couldn't help laughing. A big pot, took out a pair of chopsticks, walked back to Zhang Liang, opened the pot, picked out two big chopsticks of brown sugar and put it in Zhang Liang's bowl, Zhang Liang looked at it and grinned happily, "Sister, you heard that. "

Xu Yan nodded with a smile, "I heard, you've already said it and it's over. How can you be polite with the eldest sister?" Zhang Liang laughed, scratched the back of his head, lowered his head and held the ginger bowl and drank it. Xu Yan gave Xu Tao another drink. He dug some brown sugar into the bowl, and patted the top of Xu Tao's head, "Drink it quickly." Xu Tao smiled, nodded, and hummed.

After drinking the ginger soup, Xu Tao looked at Xu Yan, "Sister, where is Brother Da Da in the backyard?"

Xu Yan smiled, "Well, my aunt left in the morning, and my eldest brother came, tore off the quilt from the shed, shook off the snow on it, and helped transport the firewood to the warm shed. I'll see in the shed Where is the stove?"

Xu Tao smiled, and glanced at Zhang Liang, who was beside him happily eating noodles with a big bowl, and the gratitude in his heart was superimposed. The language was so pale that it had no effect other than making people happy for a while. To treat it with heart, Xu Tao bowed his head and held the bowl and ate the noodles, but he made up his mind in his heart that he must pay back the kindness he owed.

After eating, Xu Tao ran to the greenhouse in the backyard to have a look. After entering the greenhouse, Xu Tao looked at Zhang Hai, who was busy with sweat, and walked over, "Brother Dahai, take a break."

Zhang Hai wiped the sweat from his forehead, looked up at Xu Tao, "No, how about it, it's freezing." Xu Tao smiled and nodded, "It's really cold."

Zhang Hai looked at Xu Tao with a smile, "Can it be cold?" Xu Tao smiled and said nothing, turned to look at the vegetable field, felt the temperature in the greenhouse, patted his cheeks, and pressed down to eat Feeling drowsy after warming up, he looked at Zhang Hai, "Brother Da Da, is the temperature in your greenhouse not as high as that here?"

Zhang Hai put away the smile on his face, frowned slightly and nodded, "No, Xiao Tao, what do you think."

"The greenhouse in your house is too big, Brother Dahai, go back and ask Uncle to build a small stove on the front and back sides, burn the stove on both sides, and put a furnace tube on it, so the temperature can go up, Brother Dahai, it will be too late in the last half month." It's important, whether we can sell the vegetables after the new year is over depends on the last half month."

Zhang Hai's eyes lit up, and he slapped Xu Tao on the back of his heart, "Good boy, I have you, okay, let Er Gouzi tell my dad later." Xu Tao smiled, "I'll go, Zhang Liang will In the front room."

Zhang Hai waved his hand, "Then you go quickly, I can do it by myself, Yanzi said you didn't sleep last night, so you go into the room and squat for a while, you can't suffer like this when you are young, your body will go wrong."

Xu Tao smiled and agreed, and talked to Zhang Hai before turning back to the front room and telling Zhang Liang that Zhang Liang put on his cotton jacket and ran home. His body didn't block the drowsiness, and after a few minutes, small snores sounded. Xu Yan put a jar of water on the edge of the kang, saw Xu Tao who was asleep, and gently touched Xu Tao's forehead with distressed face.

As if feeling Xu Yan's distress, Xu Tao moved his head and rubbed against Xu Yan's palm. Xu Yan twitched the corners of his mouth and smiled. It was a rare opportunity to quietly look at Xu Yan who was sleeping soundly. I don't know why. Xu Yan just sat beside Xu Tao's head and watched, until Xu Tao stretched out his right hand hidden under the quilt and scratched his ear, and Xu Yan regained consciousness.

When Xu Yan saw Xu Tao's swollen knuckles, Xu Yan's eyes were red, and Xiao Tao's hand was frozen. She gently took Xu Tao's right hand, touched the knuckles lightly, and suddenly quickly turned over Xu Tao's hand, opened the The half-clenched palms revealed the big blood bubbles on the fingers of the palms, and Xu Yan burst into tears. She quickly covered her mouth, stood up and walked out of the back room, quietly stood by the kang, covered her mouth and secretly crying.

After a while Xu Yan wiped away her tears, washed her face with a towel, found a sewing kit, took a small needle, set it on fire, found the leftover wine at home and wiped it, and went back to the back room to use it. After wiping Xu Tao's hands with a towel, he carefully popped the blood bubbles on Xu Tao's hands one by one. After finishing with his right hand, he wiped his left hand. Looking at Xu Tao's scarred hands, Xu Yan felt her throat was blocked by something. It's the same, it's uncomfortable to hold back.

Putting Xu Tao's hands under the quilt again, Xu Yan stood up and walked out of the back room. After thinking for a while, she began to look for dried chilies that had been sun-dried in autumn. She remembered that using chili stalks can cure frostbite. Although it hurts, at least she won't suffer in the future. It's just that now Xiaotao has an injury on his hand and can only wait for the injury to recover. I don't know if it will work, but Xu Yan still finds it out for later use.
