Traveling into the era: I messed with Dr. Xie and got turned on
Chapter 89 Building a new house
Grandpa Zhang's house is very lively today. There are clanging sounds coming from the yard. Five or six strong men have rolled up their sleeves, revealing their strong muscles. Some are carrying materials, while others are mixing mud and cutting straw in the yard to make earthen bricks.
This was the scene Tang Man saw when he came over.
Zhang Chaofan was among them. He was making earth bricks in the yard with two soldiers. When he saw Tang Man walking into the yard with a backpack on her back, he took the initiative to greet her with a smile, "Thank you, Madam, for coming over."
Tang Man nodded at the other party and said, "Captain Zhang, what are you doing?"
Zhang Chaofan explained, "We need to make some adobe bricks to rebuild the house for Uncle Zhang and Aunt Zhang. I took a close look yesterday and found that the adobe walls of this house have been severely weathered and many of them have cracked. If we don't rebuild it, it will be unsafe to live in this house."
"Thank you for your hard work." Tang Man said with a smile, and went to the kitchen with the backpack on her back. She wanted to get some more dishes out, otherwise there wouldn't be enough for lunch.
As a result, there were already several kinds of fresh vegetables and even meat in the kitchen.
Old Mrs. Zhang also walked into the kitchen and saw Tang Man opening the vegetables. She explained, "The children brought them here. They said that there is a rule in their team that they can't take anything from the common people. But if they go back to the commune for lunch, it will take time, so they bought the vegetables and rice."
"That's great. I just bought a chicken. I'll wait for Brother Yan to come over and make the chicken soup. We can eat together at noon. It will be more lively when there are more people."
"Okay." Mrs. Zhang smiled and nodded. She was still smiling, but tears were unconsciously falling. She wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes with her hands. "Nizi, thank you. If it weren't for you and your wife, we wouldn't have the chance to wait for all this."
All three children in the family were sacrificed. This was the heaviest blow to the old couple. Their old age became extremely miserable because of this. It is absolutely impossible to say that they have no complaints in their hearts, but they also know that it was the children's own choice. They can't blame anyone except their own children, and they will not use their son's affairs to force others to be responsible for them.
Now that the country has learned about their situation and has taken the initiative to solve their problems, they have felt the country's care and warmth for the families of martyrs. This has also strengthened their faith, and any slight resentment in their hearts has disappeared.
Tang Man took out the vegetables and chicken she had brought, and walked out with Old Lady Zhang.
"Grandma Zhang, you deserve this. Your three children have sacrificed their lives for the country, so the country should be responsible for your future. They didn't know this before, but now they know and will take good care of you."
When the two men came out, Xie Yan just walked in. He was also stunned by the people in the room. Zhang Chaofan still greeted him with a smile, without any airs.
Tang Man wanted Xie Yan to go to the kitchen to stew the chicken. After Xie Yan finished acupuncture for the two elderly people, he went to the kitchen to cook. Zhang Chaofan called someone to the kitchen to help wash and cut vegetables.
Everyone had a lively lunch at noon. With Zhang Chaofan and his group present, they didn't ask Old Lady Zhang to go to the kitchen to wash the dishes. After the meal, someone took the initiative to take the dishes to the kitchen.
These people worked very quickly. When Tang Man and his friends came the next day, there were already many bricks in the yard and outside the door. They came for two more days in a row and made enough bricks. They then stacked them neatly in the yard and dried them on both sides of the path outside.
A few days later, when the bricks were estimated to be almost dried, Zhao Chaofan came with his men again. Zhang Chaofan had already discussed with Party Secretary Zhang that the house needed to be renovated and the two elderly people could not live at home. When Zhang Chaofan and his men started to build the house, Party Secretary Zhang took the two elderly people back to his own home. In order to let the two elderly people move into the new house as soon as possible, Party Secretary Zhang also gave the village a day off, and everyone came together to help repair the house.
Xie Yan and Tang Man also stayed to help. Since the other two couldn't help, they acted as chefs for everyone, serving food and water and doing the logistics work.
After a day of hard work, the new house was finally built. The new tiles were neatly arranged on the roof. Everyone helped to move the furniture back into the house. When moving that day, they found that the old man’s bed was no longer usable. Tang Man took the initiative to replace the two old people with a wooden bed and even replaced the table.
The house was cleaned inside and out and tidy before the two old people were invited in.
The two old people shed tears again. Apart from saying thank you over and over again, they really didn't know what to say to express their gratitude to everyone.
In the evening, Xie Yan took the recipe given by Tang Man and cooked several pots of hot pot ingredients. The night was just right, and everyone sat around the iron pot. Under the guidance of Xie Yan and Tang Man, they poured bowls of vegetables and meat into the pot. While eating hot pot and drinking, laughter and conversation echoed in the air, creating a lively atmosphere.
"Doctor Xie, I have to toast you." Zhang Chaofan walked over with a glass of wine.
"Yes, we should also offer a toast to the doctor." Secretary Zhang stood up and followed.
The others immediately followed suit and lined up, looking like they were going to toast one by one to say thank you for the banquet.
Xie Yan was in an awkward situation. He had lost face in front of Tang Man after getting drunk last time, and he didn't want to happen again. But seeing everyone's enthusiastic faces, it was difficult to refuse, so he had to drink with them one by one.
The result was that he got drunk again, and this time he was even drunker than last time. He was completely dazed when he left the table.
Several people helped Xie Yan onto the ox cart. However, at this time, Xie Yan had trouble even sitting steadily. Tang Man had no choice but to sit on the ox cart, supporting Xie Yan and letting him lean on him.
Old Mrs. Zhang was a little worried. "Nizi, why don't you stay here? Doctor Xie is so drunk. You should just stay here tonight."
Tang Man smiled and shook her head. "Captain Zhang and the others are also quite drunk. It's a long way to go back to the commune. Let them stay here to rest for a night. Xie Yan and I will go back. Don't worry."
At Tang Man's insistence, Secretary Zhang called a young man who had not drunk alcohol to take the two back to the clinic.
Tang Man helped Xie Yan sit in the yard to wash up, then went back to the room to change into clean clothes before helping him to bed.
After working for a while, Tang Man was sweating all over. She took her clothes and went out, directly entered the Lingquan space, ran into the hot spring, washed her hair, dried her hair, washed up again, and then slowly left the Lingquan space and returned to the house.
She had been busy for such a long time and originally thought that Xie Yan had fallen asleep a long time ago. However, she didn't expect that as soon as she lay down, Xie Yan hugged her tightly in his arms, and his head kept sniffing her neck.
"Wife, you smell so good." He murmured to himself, his voice a little lazy and drunken.
"How fragrant is it?" Tang Man asked softly. As for what he said about fragrant, she didn't take it to heart. She just thought he was saying sweet words to make her happy.
"It smells really good. Every night when I smell your scent, I get really agitated."
OK! Sure enough, I came here to coax her just for that matter.
Even though she knew he was coaxing her, she didn't stop him and let him do whatever he wanted to her.
Alas! I chose the man myself, I love him, and I cannot let him suffer any injustice.
