Transmigrating to the 70’s: The Military Wife As A Farmer

  Chapter 307 New Home

The small courtyard was neatly cleaned up. The floor of the courtyard was flat and level. A gravel road in the middle led directly to the door of the house. This small courtyard was inadvertently upgraded by several styles, and it was piled on the southeast corner. Holding a stack of firewood, there are chopped wood stubs, dry branches, and two bags of coal, which should have been prepared by Huo Jianfeng in advance.

   was looking at it, and Huo Jianfeng came over, "What is it, are you satisfied?"

  He came over with a silk bag in one hand, followed by Lin Hongwei behind him.

  Lin Hongwei's left and right hands were not idle, and he carried a basket in one hand. The basket was filled with straw, and there were eggs hidden in the straw. Duck eggs and goose eggs were prepared for them by the elder sister.

"pretty good."

  Han Mingxiu made a fair point.

  Huo Jianfeng heard her approval, he grinned happily, and said, “It’s better in the house. Let’s go, let’s go to the house and have a look.”

  He walked to the door of the house, put down the silk bag, took out a bunch of keys from his pocket and opened the door, leading them into the house.

  The family area of ​​the military area was powered on. After entering the house, Huo Jianfeng pulled the light cord, and the light turned on all of a sudden. The 15-watt light bulb illuminated the room brighter than the candle she usually lighted.

This is a two-room small ridge house. A small corridor in the middle divides the house into two parts. The big house on the east is their bedroom. Inside, there is a large kang bed. There are kang tables and kang cabinets on the floor. The floor is still safe. An iron stove was used for heating. The big spoon that Han Mingxiu gave her last time was on the stove. In the future, they can still cook and stir-fry on the stove.

  In addition, there are two boxes next to the east wall. It seems that they were purchased by Huo Jianfeng and cannot be issued by the military region, because this box is also painted with flowers and birds, which does not resemble the style of the military region.

  The West House is very small, only two-thirds of the East House, and the remaining one-third is gated out and used as a kitchen. The Westinghouse was very empty, so there was only a half-meter-high wooden bathtub, a desk and a chair, which were used as a study room.

However, you have to wait for the summer to be in the study room. This season is not specified. There is no stove and no fire in the room. The inside is cold like an ice cellar. If you write and create in it, I’m afraid you have to finish writing a line. freeze to death.

  At the moment, as far as the temperature of this room is concerned, it is still okay to be a warehouse!

The kitchen is also very small. There is only a stove inside. There is a small pot on the stove. In addition, there is a cupboard and a water tank. With these few things, almost the entire space of the kitchen is occupied. It takes a lot of effort to put another sauerkraut jar in it.

  However, Han Mingxiu is still very satisfied. She said, "It's really good, although the sparrow is small, it has all the internal organs."

  In fact, she wanted to tell Huo Jianfeng: This little home is very nice and warm, and she likes it very much.

  But the second brother-in-law was right next to her. She was embarrassed to say such a sensational thing, so she used a good sentence to express her satisfaction.

  Huo Jianfeng was naturally very happy to see his wife’s satisfaction. As soon as he was about to speak, he heard a roar from outside:

   "Fengzi, you are back!" It was Zhang He's voice.

  As soon as the voice fell, Zhang He broke in grimly, followed by his new daughter-in-law, Sun Yingmei.

When Sun Yingmei saw Han Mingxiu's affectionate affection, she stepped forward and grabbed her hand and said happily, "Xiu'er, it's great that you came here so soon. Our family will live in your west yard. We are now neighbors."

  Han Mingxiu said in surprise: "What a coincidence?"

  Sun Yingmei said shyly: “It’s not a coincidence, but Zhang He specifically wanted this room just to be your neighbors.”

  Zhang He added: "When I was fine, I had a good meal in your house..."

  Huo Jianfeng gave him a sideways glance: "If you want to eat, work first."

   "Yes, yes, work, I'll help you pour things out." Zhang He grinned at Han Mingxiu, and went out to pour things with Huo Jianfeng and Lin Hongwei.

  Han Mingxiu looked at Sun Yingmei, but she hadn’t seen her for a few days. She seemed to look better than before, with more smiles on her face. Han Mingxiu jokingly said, “Yeah, bride, I’ve been out for a few days, she looks pretty.”

  Sun Yingmei said shyly: "You still talk about me, why are you not a bride? You are newer than me."

  Han Mingxiu also laughed, touched her with her elbow, and whispered: "Hey, how is it? Isn't the newly married happy? How good is Jang Hyuk to you?"

  Sun Yingmei pursed her lips and smiled, and nodded gently: "He is kind to me..."

   "That's good, it seems that I didn't mess with the mandarin ducks, you two and Hemeimei, I, the matchmaker, will be relieved."

Sun Yingmei said: "You didn't mess with the mandarin ducks, you did a great thing, Xiu'er, you don't know how grateful I am. If it weren't for you, I wouldn't know him, and neither would we get together. Get up, thanks to you..."

  Han Mingxiu saw that she was going to be sensational, and hurriedly stopped her, and said indifferently: "Okay, if you are grateful, please help me with some work. I want to make a note. You can help me get some firewood."

   "Middle, I'll take it for you." Sun Yingmei agreed, and went to the yard to hold the firewood.

  Han Mingxiu finds out the noodles and some eggs prepared by her elder sister, prepares to make noodles in hot soup, and beats a few poached eggs to save trouble.

However, when she lifted the lid of the water tank to scoop the water to brush the pot, she found that the water in the tank was frozen. It was so frozen that the water in the jar turned into a large ice lump and could not be scooped out. .

  Han Mingxiu was worried, and Sun Yingmei walked in with a bunch of branches in her arms. Seeing that the water in their water tank had frozen into icy lumps, they said, "Why don't you go to my house and cook, you guys will burn the house well tonight, and tomorrow morning the water in the tank will almost melt."

  No way, Han Mingxiu had no choice but to accept her proposal, and brought the noodles and a few eggs to Sun Yingmei’s house to cook.

  The layout of Sun Yingmei's house is the same as that of Han Mingxiu's. The house is very simple and there is almost nothing.

   However, although there is nothing, it is full of popularity inside. As soon as I enter the house, I feel a wave of heat rushing over my face, warm, with a warm taste.

  The two came to the kitchen, one on the fire and the other cooking noodles, talking and chatting as they worked.

"Xiu'er, I heard that many army wives in this family area work in the army canteen, and I want to go too, do you think people can want me?" This news was also heard from others when Sun Yingmei first came. After I heard it, I was always ready to move, but I haven't told Zhang Hyuk yet.

  I heard that working in the cafeteria has a salary of eight yuan a month. She wants to earn eight yuan so as to pay back the famine in the family.

  Before, Zhang He borrowed a lot of famine outside in order to collect her three hundred dollars as a bride price. She didn't want Zhang He to bear the famine of so much money alone, and felt sorry for him to make money too hard, so she wanted to find some work to help Zhang He share the burden.

  Han Mingxiu also doesn't know the specific situation here, but Yingmei can take the responsibility of the family proactively, which makes Han Mingxiu very appreciated. Han Mingxiu agrees and said: "If you want to do it, it's better to ask Zhang He to inquire about it for you. If it suits you, you can do it. Anyway, staying at home is just doing it. You can take advantage of it when you have no children. Earn some money on your feet, and you won’t be able to spend more lavishly in the future."

   "Well, I think so too. Then I will discuss with him tomorrow. By the way, do you want to go? Should we go together?" Sun Yingmei suggested.

  Han Mingxiu shook her head: "I don't have this idea yet, let's talk about it later."

This is just her excuse. In fact, Han Mingxiu didn't even want to go to the cafeteria to find work. There are more gold and silver treasures in her space. Anything that can be used to buy a house is enough, why Xin How about going to the cafeteria to earn that eight yuan a month?

  Furthermore, the person in charge of the canteen, Chen Qiulan, is still a bit at fault with her. If she goes, with Chen Qiulan's heart, she will definitely have to wear small shoes for her, so she won't be able to rush to find the abuser.

  Sun Yingmei was a little disappointed when she heard that she was not going. She wanted to go with Xiu'er. They also had a companion when they were together.

   "Well, I will tell Zhang He about this tonight. If it works, I want to go to work as soon as possible." Sun Yingmei said.

  She wants to make money as soon as possible and help him share the burden on him as soon as possible...

  The three men outside soon finished their stuff upside down, and came over here to eat as soon as they finished up. However, Zhang He did not come back and was detained by Huo Jianfeng in their home to burn the kang stove for the couple.

  Huo Jianfeng was also away from Zhang He, thinking that he had finished eating anyway, so let him help them burn the kang and the stove, so that when Xiu'er comes back, the room will be warm and save her from freezing...

  Zhang He has no objection to this arrangement. After so many years, he and Huo Jianfeng are like brothers. He would be happy to be able to help a good brother to do some contributions and do some work!

  Here, Han Mingxiu has cooked the noodles, and there are two poached eggs in each noodle bowl.

Several people sat around the table and ate. Sun Yingmei, like Zhang He, had already finished dinner, and went to Han Mingxiu's house to help them organize their things.

  In the house, only Han Mingxiu, Huo Jianfeng and Lin Hongwei were left. During the meal, Lin Hongwei took the initiative to say: "You have a guest house here, isn't it far from here? I will go to the guest house to live in a while."

  He has seen it all. Huo Jianfeng’s house has only one kang. If he wants to live here tonight, he will only squeeze a kang with the young couple. He is embarrassed, so let's live in the guest house.

  Huo Jianfeng did not refuse, and said: "Not far from here, I will be here at more than two miles. I will take you over after dinner in a while."

  At this moment, Huo Jianfeng is a bit thankful that there is only one bed in the west house on the bed. Otherwise, Lianqiao Qing is waiting to live in their house tonight. If he lives in their house, wouldn't his wedding night with his wife have to be postponed again?

  It’s been three or four days, and finally sent away his wife’s aunt. If he was held back, his kidneys would be faulty.
