Become a burden in a period novel

Qin Wangshu and Aunt Luo chatted as they walked, and learned a lot about her family from Aunt Luo.

For Qin Wangshu now, Aunt Luo's family is her best choice. Not to mention that she is a widow and she is the only one in the family, just saying that she has a son who is a soldier and a husband who is a martyr can guarantee their safety.

Although widows are often surrounded by gossip, few people dare to mess with Aunt Luo's family. Living in her house is definitely much better than living in the educated youth camp.

Qin Wangshu followed Aunt Luo to her home.

"You live in this room. My room is next to it. If you need anything, just call me. The room over there is where my son lives, but he doesn't come back very often, so it's empty. I usually put some things there." Aunt Luo introduced her family situation to Qin Wangshu.

Aunt Luo's family was considered well-off in the entire Qianshan Brigade. She and her husband were capable, and they built a good house. Although her husband died in the line of duty, she received a pension.

Later, her son joined the army and sent most of his allowance back to her. She then renovated her home and saved the remaining money for her son.

Her house is one of the few in the brigade that uses bricks and tiles. Although not all of it is a brick and tile house, the roof is covered with tiles, so there is no need to worry about rain wetting the thatch and causing leaks in the house.

Aunt Luo opened the room she had prepared for Qin Wangshu. It had already been cleaned and there was a reed mat on the bed. In the moonlight, Qin Wangshu could see some water stains on the ground.

This room should have just been cleaned, probably when the captain asked everyone to come back for dinner. This made Qin Wangshu feel Aunt Luo's care for her.

"Thank you, auntie." Qin Wangshu looked at the clean room and was very grateful to Aunt Luo.

"It's nothing, I just prepared a room for you. I've always lived alone, and I'm so happy that you can come and live with me." Aunt Luo said cheerfully, "I'll put your things in the room, and I'll get you some water later so you can take a good bath."

"No need, Auntie, I can do it myself." Qin Wangshu declined quickly. Auntie Luo had already helped her a lot.

"You don't even know where you put your things. Go in and pack them up quickly." After Aunt Luo pushed Qin Wangshu into the room, she left.

Qin Wangshu wanted to stop her, but Aunt Luo had already left in a hurry. She could only walk to her luggage, open it, and put her things away one by one.

This room was a bit empty, with only a bed and a table. But this was normal, after all, at this time, no one had many pieces of furniture in their room.

At this time, it is very enviable to have "36 legs" when getting married. These "36 legs" refer to these furniture.

Qin Wangshu had just packed his luggage. Actually, there was nothing much to pack. He just put a few pieces of clothes on the bed and put the other things he had with him aside.

She took out the bed sheet and put it on the bed to cover it at night, and that was enough. Aunt Luo brought some water to Qin Wangshu.

She brought over a bucket filled with water at the right temperature.

"This is the water I dried this morning. It's perfect for bathing. You can use this water to take a good bath and then just splash the water in the yard."

"Thank you, Aunt Luo!" Qin Wangshu quickly took the bucket.

Seeing Qin Wangshu taking the bucket easily, Aunt Luo was a little surprised, but she was also relieved. After all, if she had more strength, she could live better in the countryside.

"Then you take a shower first. I won't disturb you here." Aunt Luo knew that Qin Wangshu would not feel at ease here. After bringing him the water, she prepared to leave.

Qin Wangshu walked Aunt Luo a few steps and watched her enter her room before she returned to her room, closed the door, and prepared to take a bath.

There was a kerosene lamp in the room, but Qin Wangshu did not light it. Now the moon outside the window was very bright and could be seen clearly.

After taking a bath with the water brought by Aunt Luo, Qin Wangshu poured the water in the yard. The yard of Aunt Luo's house was paved with stone paths, and the rest of the place was turned into a vegetable garden.

It seems that all the families here are like this. Many families they passed by along the way seemed to be like this. Not only were there vegetables planted in the front yard, but there were also vegetables planted in the open space behind the house.

Although Aunt Luo lived alone, she also planted a lot of vegetables. Qin Wangshu poured his bath water next to the vegetable patch.

She didn't know where to put the bucket, so she put it at the door. Then she went back to her room and lay on the bed.

Her waist was aching from sitting on the train for a few days, and now lying on the bed, she let out a sigh of contentment.

Originally, Qin Wangshu wanted to go into the space to take a look, but now he had no interest in doing so. He closed his eyes and quickly fell asleep.

The next morning, Qin Wangshu was awakened by the crowing of roosters outside.

After opening her eyes, she found that it was just dawn outside and some noises could be heard outside. It should be Aunt Luo getting up.

Qin Wangshu quickly got up, opened the door and walked towards the direction where the sound came from.

"Aunt." Qin Wangshu walked to Aunt Luo's side.

"Xiao Qin, you're up. You can have dinner soon. Go get some water to wash your face first." Aunt Luo smiled warmly when she saw Qin Wangshu.

"Let me help my aunt light the fire." Qin Wangshu sat in front of the stove.

"It's too hot. You should go wash your face first. I don't really need any help here." Aunt Luo was worried that Qin Wangshu didn't know how to light a fire. After all, she came from the city and probably had never seen an earthen stove before.

But Qin Wangshu had already sat down and asked Aunt Luo what kind of fire she needed. Qin Wangshu naturally knew how to make fire, no matter which one, he had experience.

Qin Wangshu's grandparents are from the countryside. Originally, they didn't plan to build a clay stove after building a new house, but his uncle and aunt said that the food cooked in the clay stove was delicious, so his grandfather still found someone to build a clay stove.

Every summer and winter vacation when Qin Wangshu went back home, he would help his grandparents with some work, and naturally he also learned how to make fire.

The girl had been here for so long that she had naturally cooked before, so making a fire was naturally a piece of cake for her.

Aunt Luo looked at Qin Wangshu's actions and knew that she really could do it, so she was no longer worried and just told her when she needed to change the fire.

The two of them worked together and breakfast was ready quickly.

Aunt Luo served the rice and Qin Wangshu helped to carry it. After the rice was placed on the table set up in the yard, she went to wash her face and brush her teeth.

Aunt Luo looked at Qin Wangshu with a smile, and felt that it was very relaxing to work with Qin Wangshu this morning. She had been alone all the time, and even if her son came back, he would not say a few words to her.

Now that Qin Wangshu was with her, they worked and talked at the same time, and the house seemed to be lively.
