Chapter 41
After returning home, Su Wan saw that the tiles were neatly placed at the door, and it seemed that someone had already been there before.
I just don't know who brought these things here with such kindness.
Su Wan took the key to open it and pushed the door open, letting the two children in first, while she was tidying up the tiles outside.
It's not just the tiles that are broken in their houses, they also need to be supported by planks.
However, there is no carpenter in the village. If you want to have a plank, you have to go to the mountain to cut it and make one yourself, or you can borrow it from other places.
Su Wan looked at the height, and if he wanted to get on the roof, he might need to borrow a ladder, but their house didn't have a ladder at all, so it seemed that he had to go to the neighbor's house to borrow one.
"Xiaobai, Xiaocheng, you two are lucky to be at home. I'll go to the next door to borrow a ladder, and I'll be right back."
The two people playing in the room responded.
Su Wan thought about it before going out. After all, she was asking for help from others, so she felt embarrassed not to bring something, so she carried a basket with some sweet potatoes in it.
If you bring these things to visit, it will look a little better.
And with the things the original owner did before, I don't know if he is willing or not.
Su Wan quickly walked out the door and walked towards the next door.
But although it is said to be next door, it is still separated by a large distance, almost hundreds of steps.
The family closest to Su Wan was named Chen, and there were no men in that family, only two women.
One is Chen's, and the other is her mother-in-law.
Both are widows.
Chen's mother-in-law's husband was also a tiger hunter in the early years, but when he was hunting in the mountains, he was injured by a tiger in the mountains and died when he was rescued by the villagers.
Later, he raised his son by himself and married a woman from another country. However, his son was not lucky. When he was running a business alone, he encountered bandits. Since then, there has been no news of him.
It can be regarded as a poor family in the village.
The big guys in the village will help them more or less. For example, more than half of the wood felled from the mountains this time will be given to people like them.
After Su Wan came here, she knocked on the door.
"Excuse me, is sister Chen at home?"
"I'm Su Wan next door."
"The building at home has collapsed, so I want to ask sister Chen if there is a ladder in her house, and if so, can you borrow one so that I can go up to repair the roof."
Su Wan shouted a few times outside, but there was no sound from inside.
very quiet.
Su Wan couldn't help being a little puzzled, where else could a woman go in this winter.
Could it be that he fell asleep?
Su Wan yelled outside again, but there was still no sound, and the knocking on the door and shouting gradually disappeared.
However, Mrs. Chen, who had been hiding in the middle of the room, slowly poked her head out, looking at the gate of the yard.
The expression is quite tense, and it seems that he is very afraid of making a little noise, which may be noticed by the other party that he is at home.
"gone?"
Chen couldn't help but said softly.
Chen's mother-in-law couldn't help raising her eyebrows.
"I don't understand what we are afraid of. This is our home. Could it be that she dared to jump up and beat us?"
Chen's mother-in-law was quite dissatisfied.
Chen looked at her mother-in-law worriedly.
"Grandma, be careful, don't bring her in."
"It's not that you don't know that guy's temper. He looks like hehe on the surface, but he's full of bad things in his heart."
"If we offend her, there will be no good results for us."
"It's not like you don't know that the last time she said that the shovel in her house was broken, she asked us to borrow one, but she hasn't returned it until now."
"If I lend her the ladder again this time, I'm afraid it won't be long before even our house can be hers."
Chen's face was sad, and she looked out of the house cautiously while talking.
"However, I see that there is no sound outside now. I think we are not at home, so let's go."
Mrs. Chen quietly walked out of the house.
I don't know if it's a psychological effect, the surrounding is quiet, I can only hear the creaking sound of footsteps stepping on the snow, which is very clear in the silent yard.
Chen lay down in the crack of the door and took a look, and found that there was no one outside at all, so she felt relieved, it seemed that she had really left.
Chen breathed a sigh of relief, walked back from the door, and passed the fence.
"Sister Chen, help me continue."
"Hey."
Chen raised her head and stretched out her hand, but when she opened her eyes and saw the person climbing the wall, she was completely startled.
"you you you……"
Chen Shi was so frightened that his voice became stammered.
Su Wan heard that there was no sound inside, so she wanted to climb the wall to see if there was really no one there.
He never expected to see Mrs. Chen passing by just as he came up, so he called out and asked the other party to help hold the basket so as not to break the contents inside.
Su Wan showed a kind smile.
"Sister Chen, we haven't seen each other for a long time."
But all of this seems to be a warning in the other party's cognition - take out all your things for me, or you will be hissing!
Su Wan jumped down from the wall with three jumps and five cuts.
Chen Shi was so frightened that she quickly backed away, as if she was a rabbit.
What surprised Su Wan was that Mrs. Chen didn't look old at all, rather young, and felt younger than her, but who knew she had been married for three years.
"Su...Su Wan, what do you want to do?"
Mrs. Chen looked at Su Wan in horror.
"Hey... Don't be afraid, sister Chen."
"I've come to ask for help."
"Whoever asks for help will climb over the wall."
Chen Shi didn't believe the other party's expression.
"I……"
But before he could explain, he saw Chen's mother-in-law rushing out of the house.
A pair of crutches in his hand were guarded in front of Chen threateningly.
"Su Wan, don't bully people too much!"
Although Chen's mother-in-law is getting older, her temper is still the same as before. I heard that when she was in the village, she used to be an existence comparable to the four evils.
"You have repeatedly bullied our orphan daughter-in-law and widow, you don't speak martial arts!"
"When I was walking sideways in the village, I never did such a terrible thing. You are completely breaking the rules of the road."
"It's worse than family members."
Su Wan: ...
Chen's mother-in-law glared at Su Wan.
"Uh, no, I—"
Su Wan felt that she couldn't explain it clearly, but her mind was full of memories of the original owner.
All of them were from the original owner who had bullied Mrs. Chen and his family.
It's no wonder Chen's mother-in-law is so hostile to him.
Perhaps in her mind, Su Wan's existence was second only to the tiger that killed her husband and the gang of bandits who killed his son.
It is worthy of being the four evils in the village-Eight Hundred Hearts.
