Chapter 221: Falling
The second day is the day when the new house collapses, and you don’t have to go out to sea.
Jiang Xia woke up at only six o''clock, but Zhou Chenglei was gone and I don''t know when he got up.
Is he a human?
Why is your energy so good?
Although he went back to bed and lay down very early last night, he was very late to finish his tossing, right?
I didn’t see anyone so early today. Did you go running?
Jiang Xia rolled over with the quilt in her arms, but she was still sleepy and soft. She buried her face in the quilt.
She has never been lazy and decided to be lazy today for one minute!
The quilt is full of his and her breath, and the clear and fragrant fragrance is mixed with the smell of dry sunshine.
Zhou Chenglei pushed the door and saw Jiang Xia curling on the quilt like a lazy bug.
His usual somber eyebrows and eyes instantly glowed with a hint of smile, and his cold and indifferent expression softened.
This is the first time he has seen Jiang Xia, who is so lazy.
Jiang Xia heard the sound of the door opening, so she sat up. She relaxed when she saw that it was him. She got out of bed and asked, "When did you get up?"
"Five o''clock." Zhou Chenglei closed the door, came to her, held her, and picked her up.
Jiang Xia hangs him like a thorn bear!
He pecked her lips lightly: "I was tired last night? Do you want to sleep for a while?"
Jiang Xia shook her head: "I won''t sleep anymore. Isn''t there a construction team that has collapsed the floor today?"
Zhou Chenglei lifted his arm and hugged her a little higher.
"Well, but it''s still early. I bought fried dough sticks today and I''ll make some porridge for you to taste later. You should like to eat it." He hugged her and walked to the room.
When Jiang Xia saw him open the door and go out, his heart almost jumped out: "Let me down and I''ll leave myself."
Zhou Chenglei opened the door and hugged her out: "Dad went to learn to drive a motorcycle, mom went to the vegetable garden, Zhou Zhou was just called out to play by several brothers, and there was no one at home."
Zhou Chenglei carried Jiang Xia to the patio, put the bamboo chair he brought over through the hall on the ground, then put Jiang Xia on, prepared her toothpaste, toothbrush and mouthwash cup, and asked her to brush her teeth and wash her face.
He ran to the town early in the morning and rode his bicycle back, brought some fried dough sticks and buns back, and bought a pair of pig miscellaneous items, which means pigs went into the water.
The last time I went to the city, I rode a bicycle to the town and then moved on to the car. When I came back, I rode a motorcycle. The bicycle was still in the town health center. Today, he didn’t have to go out to sea, so he rode back.
Zhou Chenglei picked up the fried dough sticks and buns in oil paper bags from the basket on the front of the bicycle and put them on the Eight Immortals table in the house, and then picked up the pig miscellaneous items from another bicycle basket to deal with them.
Last time at the Jiang family, Zhou Chenglei remembered that Jiang Xia said that fried dough sticks and soy milk were a perfect match, but Zhou Chenglei thought that the sauerk and fried dough sticks were more matched.
Jiang Xia brushed her teeth while watching Zhou Chenglei squatting there and busy preparing breakfast for herself.
In the early morning yard, the sun is shallow, and even the wind is gentle. The sunlight knocks down his body, and his side looks elegant and handsome.
This small courtyard, which was originally overgrown with weeds, now has flowers, trees, swings, and they are already very warm.
Zhou Chenglei cleaned all kinds of pig miscellaneous items, cut them, and then put them in the white porridge to cook a pot of porridge with enough ingredients.
Zhou''s mother cooked the white porridge early in the morning. She put the porridge in the honeycomb coal stove and slowly boiled it before going to the vegetable garden to drizzle the vegetables.
When Zhou Chenglei was about to finish the porridge, Zhou’s father and Zhou’s mother happened to take Zhou Zhou back from outside.
Since there were various ball games, Zhou Zhou was called out to play every day when he got up, and even the days of studying were the same. He would only go to school after playing for the last round.
Jiang Xia didn’t care. Reading is important, but a happy childhood is also important.
Children in this era are not as good as modern ones, with various cram school and interest classes. Zhou Zhou will not delay her study and rest, and she will not stop her from playing.
It’s very good now. If there are children looking for her to play with every day, I feel much more cheerful.
The family had a hearty breakfast.
Jiang Xia found that the porridge with fried dough sticks was really delicious!
Perhaps because she likes to eat porridge, there is a lot of meat in Jidi porridge. Zhou Chenglei knew that Jiang Xia likes to eat meat, so he specially put a lot of pig offal and lean pork into it, as well as sea cucumbers. In short, it was a bowl of Jidi porridge with enough ingredients.
The porridge made from fresh pigs is already very sweet. Then tear the fried dough sticks into pieces and put them into the porridge, mix them with the porridge water and eat the fried dough sticks. It is simply a delicious food in the world!
Even Zhou Zhou couldn''t help but eat two bowls of porridge, a fried dough stick and an egg, and he didn''t eat the corn he liked to eat!
Jiang Xia also ate two bowls of porridge, and after that, she wanted to eat half a bowl. Zhou Chenglei didn''t want to eat boiled eggs, corn, small milk taro, and sweet potatoes.
Finally, Zhou Chenglei peeled out the egg white and broke off one-third of the corn for her to eat.
Eat rich breakfast and eat a little anything to be healthy.
When he ate milk taro and sweet potatoes by himself, he asked her to eat one or two bites until she stopped eating it, and he finished the remaining milk taro and sweet potatoes.
Zhou Chenglei has always been able to eat it. He ate three bowls of porridge, two fried dough sticks, a bun, a corn, a sweet potato, two milk taros and an egg yolk.
Jiang Xia deeply felt that it was not easy for Zhou’s father and mother to raise Zhou Chenglei and his brothers in the 195, 1970s and 1970s!
After breakfast, it was already eight o''clock, and the construction team that fell down the floor was here.
The alley is very lively today, because the new house of Zhou Bingqiang''s house next door was also chosen to be destroyed today.
In the past, when building brick and tile houses, beams were needed. Raising beams was an important day, but now there is no need to be beams, so everyone regards the collapsed floor slab as a beam and will choose a good day.
Today’s day is good, so the two families have chosen the same day again.
Zhou Bingqiang and Zhou Guohua went out to sea today.
Yesterday, Zhou Bingqiang''s family was in trouble, and Zhou Guohua and his two elder brothers were going to separate, so Zhou Bingqiang''s family also split last night.
Zhou Guohua and Wen Wan divided a new boat and this new house.
The family was separated, and the money was not much. Zhou Guohua needed to go overseas to make money, but their money for building a house was not enough! So Wenwan stayed in the village to see the collapsed floor of the new house, and Zhou Guohua and Zhou Bingqiang went out to sea early in the morning.
Wen Wan told Zhou Guohua her dream last night, asking Zhou Guohua to go out to sea today, just in time to take advantage of Zhou Chenglei not going out to sea today, so she took the lead in fishing the two stones!
Wen Wan came here early in the morning to supervise the work.
At this moment, workers from both families were mixing concrete to prepare for the collapse of the floor.
Zhou''s mother brought out a large pot of cool soy milk and a large pot of water, and told the workers that they could take it to drink it themselves when they were thirsty.
Jiang Xia brought out some bowls and gave them to the workers to drink soy milk and water.
She saw Wen Wan standing not far away and didn''t care.
Zhou Chenglei, Zhou’s father, and Zhou Chengxin all climbed to the roof to help.
Jiang Xia couldn''t help but walk up and take a look.
When Zhou Chenglei saw her coming up, he quickly went up to help her.
The deck of the entire floor has been nailed, and a layer of steel bars and iron branches are laid on the deck, all of which are tied with iron wire according to the rules.
When the construction team saw that the floors of their house floated out a little, they asked, "The layout of your house is really good, but why has the floor floated out of the exterior wall? Should the second floor be built larger?"
Generally speaking, only the balcony will float out, but the family floats out a little, not much, about ten centimeters.
It only floated out ten centimeters, and the second floor would not be much bigger, and it seemed to make little sense!
Zhou''s father smiled and said, "This is proposed by my daughter-in-law. She said that in this way, the exterior wall will not only look better, but will also prevent problems such as leaking in the exterior wall of the house. Especially on the top floor, she said that the wall on the top floor is prone to cracking and leaking. If the floor slabs are collapsed and stretched out a little, and it will be made into a floating eaves, so that the rainwater will not directly wash the wall, but will fall on the floating eaves and then dripping down. This can prevent the house from leaking and seeping on rainy days due to cracks in the wall. Although it cannot be 100% prevented, it will be much better."
This is probably the meaning. Zhou’s father said Jiang Xia’s words according to his own understanding.
Wen Wan also heard Zhou’s father’s words and looked up at the floor of her house. Her house did not float out!
