When the mother and son returned to Lijia Village, the old couple were still packing up their things at home. Although their eldest daughter-in-law had come back to clean up once, this was the place where the old couple had lived all their lives after all, and there were quite a few odds and ends.

"Grandma, you have so many things! Let me help you!" Guangdan rolled up his sleeves and said as if to say, "I must help you."

"Oh, no, no! These are all old things. My daughter-in-law said that they should have been thrown away long ago, but I couldn't bear to do so. So I picked them up and saw if there was anything I could take away." The old lady waved her hand with a smile, then bent her waist and continued to rummage through a pile of old things in the yard.

Fang Cuihua took the broom and said without saying anything: "Then I'll go sweep the house. If you need help, just call me."

"Oh, okay, thank you for your help. This is our job to clean up." The old lady said as she carefully placed a coarse earthenware jar in her hand aside.

"No way, I'm free too." Fang Cuihua said and started to move quickly, swinging the broom vigorously in the west wing.

When Guangdan saw Mr. Li tidying up in the main room, he walked over in small steps.

"Grandpa Li, is this house only for rent?" Guangdan asked curiously.

Mr. Li stopped packing his things, looked at the main room full of traces of life with some reluctance and said: "Yes, it's only for rent. Although the house is not very good, I can't bear to sell it." After saying that, he looked at Guangdan with some confusion.

"Your house is very good, much better than mine." Guangdan said with a somewhat embarrassed smile.

But he continued to ask: "Maybe there are many people selling houses in your village."

"Yes, of course there are. There are fewer in recent years, but more in previous years. Those people basically leave and never come back." After the old man said this, he sighed softly.

Guangdan's eyes flickered slightly, and then he sighed along with everyone else. In fact, he thought that buying a small house here would be a very good choice.

Linjia Village is too far away from the county town, while Lijia Village is much better located.

After strolling around the main room for a while, Guangdan went to the yard and found that Grandma Li had already divided the odds and ends into two piles.

"Guardian, just leave these here. You can use them when you need them. These are a bit chipped and damaged, and they are quite old. I will throw them away later."

Grandma Li said with a smile, pointing at the two piles of things in the yard.

"Just put it here, let us take care of these, and you just pick out what you need." After saying that, he stood beside Grandma Li and helped to continue cleaning.

Grandma Li likes the little boy Guangdan very much. Her own grandson was also so well-behaved and obedient when he was young. Thinking of this, the old lady's face is full of kindness.

By the time Fang Cuihua had finished cleaning the two rooms in the west wing, the things in the yard had also been almost cleared away.

At noon, a carriage came and respectfully took the two elderly people and some belongings away.

Before leaving, the old lady and the old man were still reluctant to leave this house, and the old lady even held Fang Cuihua's hand and gave her detailed instructions.

After the two old people left, Guangdan sat down on a stone pillar in the yard.

"Mom, my uncle and aunt won't be here until tomorrow."

"Well, it's just right for us to clean up this place today, so we can set up the stall earlier when they come. We can't delay any longer." Fang Cuihua said as she looked carefully at the things in the yard.

"Okay, let's get started! These things the old lady sorted out are unwanted, so we can just throw them away. Then let us continue to use them. If they are broken, we can just throw them away." After saying that, Guangdan stood up, patted his butt, and reached out to dig through the pile of things that were to be thrown away.

"Let me take a look. You go get some water. Forget it, I'll go fetch the water." Fang Cuihua glanced at Guangdan's thin arms and legs and said with some disgust.

"Well, this is the broken well." Guangdan ignored his old mother's contemptuous look and said with regret.

"You have a nice idea." Fang Cuihua said as she gave Guangdan a chic back.

Guangdan touched his face and said, "What can I say? My mother hates me!"

"Hey, is this the house rented by your family?" Just when Fang Cuihua had walked a short distance, Guangdan heard the voice of a strange woman coming from the courtyard wall.

He turned around and saw that it was his neighbor from the east, a young woman about the same age as his second aunt. She was looking at Guangdan with a smile and asked.

"Yes, auntie. I'll have to trouble you more in the future." Guangdan said sincerely, his face filled with the innocence unique to children.

"Hahaha, that's not true. Living together is fate. Why are you renting a house in our village?" The young woman inquired curiously.

"We sell some snacks in the city." Guangdan said as he smiled, showing his little white teeth.

"Oh, it's very convenient for our village to go to the county town. How much did you rent it for?" The young woman asked in a very kind manner with her eyes narrowed.

"I don't know about this. Otherwise, please ask my mother later. She will definitely know."

"Oh, Auntie is just asking casually, haha, no need, no need."

After the young woman finished speaking, she retracted her head from the wall, causing Guangdan to lower his head and couldn't help laughing softly.

It's kind of funny that he's asking so blatantly.

The mother and son had a hard day in Lijia Village. They cleaned the spider webs on the wooden beams of the roofs of the six rooms, plus the cowshed, woodshed, kitchen and yard, and then swept them again with a broom.

Then you need to use a cloth to wipe the tables, chairs and windows in the house with clean water. After all, you are going to cook at home, so hygiene is still very important.

The kitchen in particular was cleaned until it sparkled by the mother and son. Even the water tank was carried to the yard by Fang Cuihua and cleaned carefully inside and out several times.

By the evening, both of them were exhausted. In one word, they were tired!

I boiled some hot water and ate some black flour pancakes which tasted delicious. I mean, when you are tired and hungry, everything tastes delicious!

At night, he slept all night long without waking up at all. However, in the morning, he was still woken up by the urge to pee, and he had no choice but to climb down from the kang with difficulty.

At this time, Fang Cuihua was still sleeping soundly in the room. After all, there was nothing to do. Mainly, there was no one else here, including her father-in-law, mother-in-law and husband. Fang Cuihua just let herself go and decided to sleep until dawn.

Guangdan had just finished satisfying his physiological needs when he heard his stomach rumbling and couldn't help feeling a little sad.

Why does he get hungry after defecating?

Not at all elegant!
