Chapter 73 Repairing the House

 Everyone dispersed and went back to their homes.

The house of these people collapsed, and no one came to help. The main reason was that the performance of the eight of them just now made people feel a little uncomfortable.

Let’s not talk about the internal strife among themselves, the betrayal of each other, and stabbing each other in the back.

It's just the gossip and rumors they talked about privately in the past, but now when they are brought out, it makes people feel a little chilly.

These educated youths all thought that they were educated youths. They were simply enthusiastic and came here with full enthusiasm to build the frontiers of the motherland. Who would have thought that anyone would have such an idea.

So vicious and dark.

 Everyone involuntarily and deliberately drew a clear line between them and these eight people.

No one wants to get involved in this kind of thing.

Who knows whether these people who are brothers to you today will stab you in the back tomorrow like they did today.

 So there is no need for anyone to encourage it.

Everyone instinctively goes back to their own nests to make their own quilts. If you don’t have the time, you might as well make money by making quilts.

Liu Haidong and several male educated youths remembered that the glass on their nest was broken during the summer solstice.

“Captain Zhou, is there any glass in our team?

 Let Xia Zhi and the others get a piece of glass. Otherwise, I wouldn't be able to sleep that night. In such cold weather, I would freeze someone overnight. "

 Zhou Zhengan shook his head.

“We don’t have extra glass on the team. If this is the case for the time being, we can only cover it with mats first.”

 Glass is not something you can just have.

 It will definitely not be possible within a few months anyway.

Upon hearing this, Xia Zhi and Liu Zhiyan's eyes darkened.

 They are completely living in a dungeon now!

As soon as the mat was covered, the little light was gone.

 But at this moment there is no other way, this is the condition here.

Xia Zhi didn’t say anything. They had mats in their nest.

At that time, before the weather was still cold, she cut a lot of reeds from the reed swamps and made a lot of baskets and mats.

To prevent them from getting wet, they put three mats under the platform.

Moreover, a platform was built with earth clods under the grain, and several layers of mats were spread to keep out the moisture.

 At this moment, I have taken out two mats which should be put to good use.

Zhou Zhengan took a look.

“Leave it to us to repair the ground and leave it alone.”

He rolled up his sleeves, took the mat, and went to the roof to mend the holes.

The two comrades hurriedly looked for shovels and other things, and put this mat on it. It was useless just to put the mat on it. A layer of loess had to be spread on top of the mat.

 Seriously, it’s a layer of yellow mud.

 After drying, the yellow mud can cover all the gaps in the mat, and it can also be regarded as keeping warm.

Zhou Zhengan tidied the top of their nest neatly. He stood aside and took a look. Sure enough, it looked quite neat.

But the heavy snow soon fell, which was really okay.

 After next spring, this nest must be repaired no matter what.

I just hope that they will be better off next spring. If they can build a mud house, it may be much better than a diwo house.

But that will be next year, and I don’t know if it can be done yet. If the authorities don’t allocate funds, they will have no money. It will be a bit difficult to build the mud house all by themselves.

 Xia Zhi handed over the half-warm water in the teapot.

 This is sugar water.

"Captain Zhou, drink some water and go inside to rest. You are wearing such thin clothes, don't freeze."

 Zhou Zhengan and his people were busy for a long time.

 Supper has been prepared for the summer solstice.

Three people helped them repair the pit. At least the two of them would not have to suffer from the cold tonight, so they made vegetable boxes for the night.

 There is no meat, but cabbage, fungus and duck eggs. The few duck eggs left behind are no problem. The weather is so cold that the duck eggs won't go bad.

 Chop the cabbage, cut the soaked fungus into shreds, and mix with the fried duck eggs to make a vegetable box.

Although there is not much oil, I still put in a little more oil than usual when frying the vegetable box.

Considering that Zhou Zhengan also brought two comrades with him, the appetite of the three grown men, plus Liu Qianjin, must be quite a lot.

 So I made a big pot.

 Crush the garlic again and chop it into fine pieces.

 Add a little vinegar and a little soy sauce.

 Put in some fried chili peppers. This condiment will definitely taste good enough to be eaten in a vegetable box.

I cooked another large pot of cornmeal porridge. This porridge is a little bland, but it goes well with the vegetable box.

As soon as Zhou Zhengan heard that he was eating, he looked at his watch.

  It’s past midnight in the cafeteria now, and there’s no food left to eat.

“I’m so sorry, I have to bring two more people to eat at your place this time. I can’t bring food here today.”

This is a meal for others.

"What did Captain Zhou say? Help us clean up the den. We owe you such a big favor. What's the point of letting you have a meal? Hurry up and bring two comrades into the house for dinner."

Xia Zhi hurriedly opened the curtain to let them in. The house was relatively narrow and low.

Just like the **** men who feel aggrieved as soon as they come in.

 After finishing the meal, the two comrades were satisfied and followed Captain Zhou, muttering as they walked.

“No wonder the captain likes to come to Comrade Xiao Xia’s place to eat. Even I like to come to Xiao Xia’s place to eat.”

“The last time I ate kebabs on the road, I found that the food made by Comrade Xiaoxia was particularly delicious.”

 “Who says it’s not?

 Look at the vegetable box I made today.

 Let me tell you, I have never eaten such a fragrant vegetable box in my life. Even though it is vegetarian, it is no worse than those meat and vegetable boxes. "

 “I’ve been exhausted today.”

 Zhou Zhengan's lips curled up. Who gave Xia Zhi such special magic power?

Even though there is snow in the sky, I'm not cold at all.

 Feng Xizhu and the other eight people also had a busy day.

Although Captain Zhou went to the team to find a few comrades to come and help.

 It is said that I am teaching them, which can be regarded as helping them, but it is definitely unrealistic to finish the nest in one day.

The roof has been covered with braided hay, but the mat on top is covered with reeds, and the current reeds are no longer suitable for braiding mats.

 Can't find good materials for a while.

 I have to wait until tomorrow when I see the team to go up and find out if there are any free mats in the warehouse.

 And this mat costs money.

  The five male educated youths who had collapsed their houses were very angry when they saw Feng Xizhu.

“Feng Xizhu, this matter is all your fault, but we must make it clear to you.

All the money spent on building the house was deducted from your work points, all because of you. If you hadn't insisted that clearing the snow was useless, we wouldn't have followed Xia Zhi and others to clear the snow, and we would have ended up where we are today. . "

Feng Xizhu got angry this time and jumped up with his feet on his waist, like a village shrew.

"Why don't you do it when I tell you not to do it? If I tell you to eat shit, are you going to eat shit? Don't put the **** pot on my head. That's what you want. Don't do this with me. set."

 “Why do you speak so harshly?”

“It’s ugly for me to speak, and it’s ugly for you to do things. I tell you, don’t even think about taking a penny from me, otherwise we’ll see.”

Feng Xizhu has already been booked with a big mistake, and he has to pay Xia Zhi and the others for glass and roof repairs, as well as money to repair his own house inside and outside.

 In total, this is a very large amount of money.

Feng Xizhu was already furious and was not afraid of breaking up with everyone at this moment.
