Chapter 151 Comfort
Aunt Fang couldn't help but sigh: "What are you going to do in the future!"
Jiang Anning knew what people were referring to, but she didn't worry about it.
She has not thought about marrying anyone else.
But there is no need to say this.
Otherwise, you will most likely be talked about.
It only increases worries.
Worldly prejudices no longer matter to her, who has died once a long time ago.
Jiang Anning smiled calmly and did not continue the topic.
Near noon, Aunt Fang went to the town to deliver meals to the two children, and perhaps also brought Jiang Genshan's share along the way.
Jiang Anning didn't go into other people's affairs. She had nothing to do in the afternoon, so she just stayed in the house and read the letters left by her mother.
She thought of the nest of eggs and happened to see the handbook recording how to hatch chicks.
"Hatching eggs and hatching bird eggs should be pretty much the same, right?"
Jiang Anning's heart moved slightly, and she suddenly wanted to try it.
Just as she was told, she got up and took the eggs into the house.
Then, as recorded in the handwriting notes, cotton and quilts were prepared, and the kang in the room, which had been cold for some time, was heated again.
It has just passed the dog days of summer, and the sweltering heat has not gone away. It is still hot outside and people are sweating all over their bodies.
She also made the kang in the room very hot. After a while, she was sweating profusely.
"This is not an easy job."
Jiang Anning suddenly felt regretful.
There is no extra room in her house, and now this one is burning hot. It is more than enough to hatch bird eggs, but it can no longer be inhabited.
What should I do?
Jiang Anning was worried for a moment, and then her eyes fell on the side room next to her that was used to store sundries.
"Just one night?"
The thought just crossed his mind and was rejected by Jiang Anning.
This house has not been lived in for a long time, and it is full of debris. It has not been cleaned for a long time, and there is no one knows how much dust has accumulated. Living in it will probably damage your body.
After much deliberation, Jiang Anning decided to make an impromptu decision and went to the back mountain forest to cut some bamboo.
"What is she busy talking about?"
Jiao Niang, who was secretly watching the person's every move, looked at Wang Shang in confusion: "On a hot day, other people would like to put a few pieces of ice on the table to cool down the heat, but why did she do the opposite and put it on the table?" Is the house burning hot? ”
She looked at the smoke coming from the chimney of Jiang Anning's house just now, and she was afraid that by now, eggs would be boiled on the edge of the kang.
"How do I know?"
Wang Shang had a cold expression and looked very unhappy.
Jiao Niang knew that the person was in a bad mood at the moment, so she didn't say anything to offend him.
He just became more and more curious about Jiang Anning's behavior.
After running back and forth into the woods three times, Jiang Anning stopped, carefully counted the number of bamboos, and then opened the notebook again.
Not to mention that Wang Shang and Jiao Niang were confused, even on the barrage, they were also confused.
【What is the female goose doing】
[Why are you cutting so much bamboo, starting a fire?]
[I looked at how green the leaves were over there. It must be midsummer, right? On a day like this, do you still have to burn a kang? Do you really not know how to have sex with adults? 】
[Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh there still people burning the kang. Just looking at it makes me sweat profusely and my whole body is sticky. Just thinking about it makes me feel uncomfortable. Destroy it. I can’t stand it anymore, I’m so sick]
There is everything on the barrage.
Some complained about Jiang Anning's confusing behavior, while others complained that the weather was too hot recently.
Of course, there are also complaints about the weather being too cold.
[Family, who knows, it’s June and it’s actually snowing! ! 】
After a while, the barrage began to discuss the weird weather in various places.
Jiang Anning glanced at it in her spare time, and then automatically ignored these insignificant flowers.
Over this period of time, she has almost adapted to the existence of these barrages, and is able to ignore them freely.
But it's strange to say that she didn't know if it was because she ignored the existence of the barrage for a long time, so that she didn't see the barrage appear for a long time.
It was only yesterday when I was thinking about whether Xia Ran's behavior was reasonable and whether there was fraud, that the barrage suddenly came again.
It was as if it was specifically designed to solve her confusion and provide her with ideas.
It's amazing.
She shook her head and stopped thinking about this unanswerable answer.
Just as she had no idea why the barrage suddenly appeared, she also had no idea why the barrage disappeared.
Is it a gift from rebirth, or is it rebirth because of the barrage?
These secrets that are inhumane to outsiders are destined to have no answers.
She simply wasn't someone who liked to struggle with such unsolvable matters. If she couldn't figure out something, she would put it aside and stop thinking about it. She lowered her head and looked through the letters, looking for a way to build a simple bamboo house.
"I clearly remember when and on which page I saw it, but why can't I find it when I need to use it now?"
Jiang Anning flipped through several pages but couldn't find what she wanted.
She sighed helplessly, closed the notebook again, took a deep breath, and slowly exhaled it, starting from the first page, and continued to search carefully.
"It seems that I will have to find time in the future to make a catalog for this manuscript."
Otherwise, when you want to use it, you will not be able to find the page you want to use, and you will have to waste time and continue to search page by page.
If you have nothing to do, just spend some time.
Jiang Anning raised her head, glanced at the sky, and sighed again.
It's getting late now. Although the sun is still hanging high, when it comes to setting, it will set very quickly!
Although the sun is long now, when it does get dark, it will only be a blink of an eye, and the sky will be completely dark.
No matter what she wants to do at that time, I'm afraid she can only light a lamp and boil oil.
But this season is when moths and bugs fly around.
If these little things see some light, they will probably swoop over in groups.
That scene, just thinking about it, already makes people feel numb all over.
Jiang Anning didn't want to be surrounded by a swarm of insects and moths during the team building.
In that case, she would rather go back to sleep in the main room, which has almost become a steamer!
Fortunately, hard work paid off. Yue Mo flipped through half of the notebook and finally found the simple method of building a small bamboo house that she wanted.
"Found it!"
Surprise burst out in Jiang Anning's eyes: "Fortunately, I remembered correctly, otherwise I would have had to sleep in a steamer room tonight!"
She let out a light breath, her brows and eyes showing a rare relaxation.
After briefly reading the instructions for building a simple bamboo house recorded in the handbook, Jiang Anning found the tools from the utility room and began to knock on them.
"She is..."
As a killer, Jiao Niang has naturally learned how to survive in the wild.
She has naturally learned how to build simple shacks and other methods.
After just observing Jiang Anning's behavior for a moment, she roughly guessed what the person wanted to do.
"Is she trying to build a house?"
Jiao Niang felt that Jiang Anning was a little unreasonable.
"Is she crazy?"
An embroiderer, who doesn't take good care of her hands, does rough work without any scruples.
"Is she really an embroiderer?"
"How can there be such an embroiderer who doesn't cherish her own hands?"
"Isn't she afraid that her hands will be scratched and worn down, or rough marks and calluses will be left behind, which will make it difficult to do embroidery work in the future?"
"What does she want to do?"
Jiao Niang didn't understand Jiang Anning's behavior of not caring for her.
In her opinion, an embroiderer's hands are precious and must be carefully cared for and maintained every day to keep them smooth and tender.
A person like Jiang Anning who just rolls up his sleeves and picks up the tools without any care, just banging, banging, banging, is really damaging his career!
If Jiang Anning heard what Jiao Niang said, I'm afraid she would be even more surprised.
It turned out that it was not just Aunt Fang who felt sorry for her embroidery hands.
Even a stranger like Jiao Niang would feel distressed and worried, knowing that the hands of the embroiderer could not be damaged, let alone doing such rough work to damage these hands.
With the comparison, it becomes even more obvious that the Zhao family's humiliation and bullying of her forced her to be unable to take care of her hands and had to do menial work to wear down her originally very delicate hands, which was very unusual. It's like... it was done on purpose.
Unfortunately, Jiang Anning didn't know that someone was watching her every move in the dark, let alone what Jiao Niang said behind her back.
She was concentrating on building the small bamboo house at the moment, and was not particularly distracted by the surrounding environment.
Building a small bamboo house is really a physical job.
Just sawing bamboo is a big job and very time-consuming.
Fortunately, Jiang Anning's strength, thanks to the barrage rewards, was extremely powerful.
After the first few attempts, once you get used to it, you gradually begin to feel that practice makes perfect.
Hurrying and hurrying, just when the sky was filled with red clouds, we finally built what looked like a two-story bamboo building for viewing.
In order to save time and effort, Jiang Anning simply pressed the frame of the small bamboo building next to the side wall of the main house.
In this way, the whole small bamboo building has a stable main wall that can be relied on.
She spent some more effort to find a thick beam and pressed it against the other side.
After finishing her work, she climbed up to the bamboo building and jumped a few times to test her stability.
I didn't expect it to be really stable and strong, and it didn't wobble no matter how I jumped.
“It seems like cutting corners was really successful!”
Jiang Anning was very satisfied with the temporary shelter she built, and she just accidentally discovered that the side against the wall of the main house was slightly warm!
The heat from the main room next door actually spread to Xiaozhulou.
However, it was only the side close to the wall of the main room that felt slightly warm to the touch.
Looking at the entire Xiaozhulou, such a little warmth is really not worth mentioning.
However, in the current season where it is hot and stuffy during the day, but cool and cool at night, making you want to wear cotton-padded clothes, it can be regarded as the icing on the cake.
Jiao Niang looked at such a delicate little lady from a distance, and she actually built a small bamboo building, and she was very surprised.
“I didn’t expect that she actually built a bamboo house.”
Although overall it is very simple and crude, it is quite remarkable that it can be built like this in such a long time.
Jiao Niang secretly admired him.
"What does she want to do? She can't live in a good house, it's burning hot, and then builds a small bamboo house next to it... Can't find a job?"
Jiao Niang muttered, not even noticing that she received several glares from Wang Shang.
Wang Shang rolled his eyes speechlessly. He endured it again and again, but he couldn't bear it anymore: "Noisy."
?
Jiao Niang retracted her peek at Jiang Anning and glanced at Wang Shang.
Wang Shang:......
He pursed his lips, tried to keep a straight face, and reprimanded: "Have you lived in peace and quiet for too long, and have you forgotten that the most important thing as a killer is to talk less?"
How can you keep an eye on the whistle and talk at the same time, opening and closing your mouth and talking non-stop?
Are you afraid that you won't be discovered?
The girl blinked: "Oh~"
He actually scolded people without caring.
Wang Shang frowned, feeling that the girl today was a bit strange.
Normally, even if this woman didn't contradict him, she would still roll her eyes with a confused expression.
Why does it seem like the sun is rising in the west today?
Not a single word of rebuttal was spoken, and the silence was beyond words.
Jiang Anning didn't know that the person staring at her from a distance was working hard to add a roof to the small bamboo building.
When the sun completely set, the moon quietly climbed up, and the golden light turned into new light and spread down, Jiang Anning finally completed the finishing work.
She braved the stifling heat in the main room, went in, glanced at the eggs, picked out two quilts from the closet at random, and ran out of the house quickly holding them in her arms.
In just a few breaths, the steamer-like main room made her sweat profusely and even her clothes were soaked.
She had to go back to her room again, get some clean clothes, go to the bathroom next to her, take a hurried bath, and put on clean clothes.
Just after such a tossing, I sweated a lot and suddenly became sticky.
"It's so hot..."
Jiang Anning muttered a little irritably.
She spread the bedding on the floor of the small bamboo house, planning to make do with it temporarily for the next few days.
"It seems that I have to go to Chief Jiang's house tomorrow."
Jiang Anning muttered softly: "I don't know if there is anyone in the village who plans to sell out the house."
She wanted to raise silkworms in the village and create the illusion that raising silkworms was very profitable, and she had to invest some money first.
Moreover, it must be something that the villagers can "easily" find out.
First of all, the courtyard wall must be low enough so that people passing by can see clearly by stepping on their feet and stretching their necks.
Only in this way can the villagers peek into her "business" and become interested.
Act only when your heart moves.
Given the nature of the people in the village who can't bear to do anything without profit, if they see her making money, I'm afraid they will flock to her in a short time and ask her to let them do the business for free.
Jiang Anning thought about it randomly. The night breeze gradually became cooler, blowing away a lot of heat and boredom. After a while, she felt a little sleepy. She wanted to take a nap, but she didn't want to fall asleep directly. .
What she didn't know was that someone in the distance was staring at her all night.
The next day, Jiang Anning was awakened by the chirping of birds on the bamboo tower.
She sat up and rubbed her eyes, looking at the bright sky outside, feeling like she was in another world.
I got up, fetched water and washed my face, and then I felt a little more awake.
After having a hasty breakfast, Jiang Anning was about to go out to the patriarch's house when he bumped into Aunt Fang and Sui Ran coming from next door.
"Good morning, Aunt Fang, sister-in-law Guicheng."
After saying hello, both of them came over very enthusiastically: "Sui Ran and I were about to look for you, but by chance you came out."
Aunt Fang's complexion looks better today than yesterday.
She stepped forward with a smile, took the person's hand, and patted it gently: "Sui Ran tasted the miscellaneous fish sauce you made and praised it full of praise. He thought about going to see if he could catch some small fish and shrimps. , go back and add a side dish to the meal sold at the stall!”
"Are you planning to go out?"
Aunt Fang glanced at the locked door behind Jiang Anning and regretted that she had spoken too quickly.
Without asking anyone if they had time, they just talked about their plans.
Jiang Anning said "Yeah": "I plan to go to the patriarch's house, but it's not something important. It will be the same if I go later."
She heard someone say they were going to catch small fish and shrimps, and wanted to ask her to help lead the way.
After all, if it were an easy-to-find place with fish, shrimps and crabs, it would have been looted by the villagers.
Where will it be their turn to fish and pick it up?
Jiang Anning was able to fish it out, most likely by accident. What he got into was a place that no one had been to before.
This is really the case.
The three of them hit it off immediately, and each went home, took a wooden basin and a basket, quietly got into the woods, and walked deeper along the stream.
"Boss, they have entered the forest, should we continue to follow them?"
Jiao Niang looked at the man next to her for advice.
Wang Shangfa was stunned for a while, then said slowly: "I won't follow you anymore, go back."
"Okay...Eh? Huh?"
Jiao Niang froze in place in surprise, a little at a loss for a moment.
"Go back?"
She repeated it blankly, as if she suspected that she heard it wrong.
Wang Shang didn't even bother to say "hmm" and walked back to Jiang'an County, leaving Jiao Niang alone and messy in the same place.
Are you going back now?
So what are they doing here?
Just to see Jiang Anning looking for trouble, building a bamboo house, digging out bird's nests, stealing bird eggs, and making the kang boiling hot on a hot day?
Please, she hasn't had enough water or rice from yesterday morning to now, just because she was worried that her excretion would delay the watcher, so something went wrong.
As a result, I stared at it all night, and in the end, I went back?
Just go back like this?
Nothing was done, nothing happened, he came quietly and went back quietly?
The girl is puzzled.
I feel that Wang Shang is probably having convulsions again.
She looked angrily at the man's back, which was only a small black dot. She stamped her feet unwillingly and hurried after him.
