Chapter 4

It was going to be demolished, but his daughter-in-law was ill and stayed in the hospital for a few days, so it was delayed. Otherwise, the foundation was being laid now, and it would be useless for Ling Yao to return.

He looked at the excavator master and asked viciously: "I've only dug a few times, and I still need wages?"

The master nodded: "Yes, you call the car, even if you don't dig, you have to pay the wages. Forget it, it was 100 yuan a day, you can give [-] yuan."

Seeing his uncle looking like he was going to eat people, Ling Yao hurried over, took out 100 yuan and gave it to the excavator master and said, "Take it, master."

Jianguo stared at the bulging wallet in Ling Yao's hand, and said, "You child, how can I ask you to give me the money." He said so, but he didn't mean to give the money to Ling Yao.

Ling Yao also understood in his heart that his uncle was very resentful because he failed to occupy his house. If he quarreled with the excavator master because of this, it would be useless to show others a joke.He paid the money just to get rid of people quickly.

The excavator master took the money and drove the excavator away.Ling Yao watched his uncle leave as well, then stepped into the house carefully, avoiding the pile of broken bricks and tiles on the ground, and walked towards the backyard.

The houses destroyed at the entrance were not used for living in those years, but were used for storing food and sundries, and the rooms behind were used for living.

Ling Yao's house looks like a big place, but in fact, including the kitchen, there are only four rooms, but the yard is very big.

In the backyard, there is a walnut tree and a jujube tree that he planted when he was a child.

It's mid-August and the walnuts are almost ripe.Ling Yao looked up at the blue walnuts on the branch, and his expression softened a lot.

When he was young, because of his abnormal body, his parents often quarreled and got angry, and they would call him a monster in anger, and even beat him to vent their anger.

But when he wasn't arguing, his father treated him well.It was later that his parents wanted to have another child, but they couldn't conceive, so his father's temper became worse and worse, and he often beat him and his mother.

When he was a child, he was greedy. Seeing that the children in the village had walnuts to eat, he went home and clamored to eat them too. His mother liked to eat dates, so his father took him to buy a small walnut tree and a date tree, and planted them. in the yard.

It has been almost 20 years, and the two trees are not growing fast, almost as thick as his waist.

Ling Yao had a nostalgic look on his face.When I was young, every time the walnuts were ripe, the family of three would eat walnuts with a bamboo pole.

In summer, they spread a mat in the yard to sleep at night.He insisted on spreading the mat under the tree, but the jujube tree and the walnut tree had biting insects, and sometimes they would fall from the tree, biting him with red bumps all over his body, and it was very painful.

Looking at the weeds that were half a person tall in the yard, Ling Yao didn't go inside. He stood there remembering his childhood for a while, then got up and walked to the door of his room and pushed gently, and the door opened with a "creak" sound. , raising some dust.

Ling Yao raised his hand and slapped his nose. Standing at the door, he stared at the messy footprints on the ground and frowned. There were a bunch of footprints in front of the kang, in front of the wardrobe, and in front of the desk, obviously they were robbed not long ago.

He frowned and walked in, opened the wardrobe and the desk drawer and looked, there were signs of being turned over, but there was nothing important inside. When he left back then, he took all the important things with him. With useless ones, he buried them in the yard.

He stood up and looked at the walls and roof covered with cobwebs, and the furniture was covered with a thick layer of dust.The quilts on the kang were not collected either.

He took a look, then backed out, turned around and pushed open the door of the parents' room next door. There were also footprints on the ground, the room was turned into a mess, the clothes in the closet were thrown all over the floor, and every corner was turned over. I really don't know what the thief is looking for.

Ling Yao was only 15 years old at the time. After his father left, he hated his mother for abandoning him, so he locked the door of his house and simply lived in school.

After going to high school, the courses are heavy, and he still has to work to earn money, and he doesn't want to go home. After going to college, he is far away, and he doesn't want to come back. Sometimes he even forgets that he still has a home.

Ling Yao looked at the cobwebs and dust all over the room, and the sawdust bitten by the furniture fell all over the floor. He really didn't know how to clean it up.

He just wanted to come back when he had nowhere to go.I didn't even bring a change of clothes. At that time, I didn't even think about whether the family could live without anyone living in it for more than ten years.

Reluctantly, he found a broom in the yard, waved it, and the dust choked him so much that he couldn't stand in the house anymore.

"Ahem." Ling Yao threw the broom and ran out holding his nose.

The faucet in the yard was rusted, but it was still working. Ling Yao turned on the water and washed his face.

He really didn't know how to clean it up, it was a mess, and everything was broken and unusable.

Ling Yao turned around with a headache and went out, just in time someone was doing laundry at the door next door, saw him coming out, and said enthusiastically, "Yao Yao is back, if you want to help clean up the house, let me know, auntie and your uncle are both free, go I will help you."

Ling Yao smiled and waved his hands: "Thank you, auntie, I'm not in a hurry now, and I don't know how to clean up now, it's a mess."

"Thank you, neighbors and folks, you kid. If you want help, just call your aunt."

Ling Yao was infected by her enthusiasm, his mood improved a lot, and the smile on his face became more sincere, "It's okay, I'm alone, just clean up casually." He looked up at his half-collapsed house, straight sigh.There is still a beam hanging in the air on the roof that cannot be dropped, it is very worrying to see.He has to pass from low to low, in and out, which is very dangerous.

Ling Yao scratched his hair irritably. The pile of rubbish and the dusty house gave him a headache, and he didn't want to clean it up at all.He just wants to have a soft and comfortable big bed, so that he can sleep peacefully.

If I had known earlier, I would have just driven the car back, so it would be more convenient to go out and buy something.Let's go buy some daily necessities first.

"Auntie, does the store in our village sell quilts?" Ling Yao asked the aunt next door.

"We have no quilts in this small shop. Shake it off, you can just call me Aunt Chun, I used to call me that when I was a child, forget about it." Aunt Chun rubbed her clothes in her hands, looked up at Ling Yao and said with a smile .

Ling Yao rubbed the back of his head, a little embarrassed, he smiled, "Aunt Chun, then you should be busy first, I'll go shopping first, you see I didn't bring anything with me when I came back."

"Success, you go quickly. Come back early and come to my aunt's house for dinner in the evening."

Ling Yao couldn't get used to Aunt Chun's enthusiasm, so she quickly waved her hand and said, "Aunt Chun, don't worry about me, I don't know when I will be back at night."

Aunt Chun smiled: "This child, don't be polite to Auntie, remember to come here at night."

"Got it." Ling Yao didn't know how to deal with it for a while, and suddenly his eyes were a little red. After all these years, he was alone outside, no one cared about him, and he had to rely on himself for everything, that is, he knew Xue After Hao, he felt the taste of being cared for.

He closed his eyes and stopped thinking about Xue Hao.He walked towards the entrance of the village. When he came back, there was a small shop at the entrance of the village. He glanced at it, and it didn't look like there were quilts. It seemed that he had to go to the county to buy them.

At the entrance of the village, after waiting for almost half an hour, a taxi passed by, and Ling Yao quickly stopped him.

"Master, go to the biggest supermarket in the county." Ling Yao got into the car and said to the driver.

4. Clean up

The road to the county was also in good condition, there were very few traffic jams, and it arrived in a short while. The driver stopped the car, turned to Ling Yao and said, "This is China Resources Vanguard, the largest supermarket in the county."

Ling Yao nodded, paid the fare and got off the bus, walked into the supermarket leisurely, pushed a shopping cart, and started the crazy shopping mode as soon as he entered.

Quilts, quilts, four-piece suits, pillows, mats and other bedding, as well as a lot of toiletries, and a few changes of clothes.

Thinking all the way out of the village just now, he didn't seem to see a restaurant or anything, so he took the induction cooker, pots and pans, and cooked by himself, and practiced his cooking skills by the way. His cooking skills were really horrible.

Thinking of this, he pushed the shopping cart to the book area and picked up a book about classic stir-fry and nourishing stomach and intestines.

Turning around, I bought a bunch of gifts and snacks. The shopping cart was soon full. Ling Yao felt as if there were still some things he didn’t buy, but he couldn’t remember them for a while. Looking at the stuffed shopping cart, he Decided to go home first.

After paying the bill, he went out of the supermarket, and stopped a taxi at the door. Ling Yao asked the master to drive all the way to his door.

Carrying his things into the door, Ling Yao realized that there was no clean place for him to put his things in the house, and he was worried about putting them outside, so he simply put them away. Anyway, they were all packaged, so if they were dirty, they would be dirty, no. Stained piles on top will do.

Then he took off his shirt and started to tidy up the house bare-chested. There were few things in his room, so it was easy to clean.I tried to pull the light cord, but fortunately, the line was fine, and it turned on as soon as I pulled it.

Ling Yao threw out all the quilts on the kang, cleaned the cobwebs on the walls, and cleaned up everything in the wardrobe and desk.The ground is made of cement, so just clean up the rubbish on the ground.

After cleaning the house inside and out, Ling Yao closed the windows, sprayed with insecticide, closed the door and went out.The stools and chairs were still usable, Ling Yao lazily wiped them with a rag, rinsed them with water under the tap, and then threw them in the sun to dry.

After doing this, Ling Yao was so tired that his arms were sore.He sat down on the ground and rested for a while, then moved the garbage he cleaned up to the door, and borrowed a shelf cart to take it to the garbage dump when he was free.

After he finished transferring the garbage, the sun also set. Ling Yao thought about it, and then began to clean the kitchen helplessly.
