Chapter 51 The consequences of eating too much watermelon
Jiang Xia looked at him for a moment.
Her eyes were beautiful, as if stars were twinkling. Zhou Chenglei's palms were a little sweaty: "Jiang Xia, can we stay together..."
At this time, Zhou's mother and great-aunt rushed to each other. rushed in.
"Xiao Xia! Xiao Xia! Where are you? Are you okay!"
"Xiao Xia, are you okay! Xiao Xia!"
Mother Zhou pulled Jiang Xia over and Zhou Chenglei They were all pushed aside, "Are you okay? Have you been hit? Pan Daidi is such a bastard! I won't let her go!"
My great-grandmother looked at her with more eyes, and said cheerfully: "Yes. Ah Lei is here, it must be okay!"
Zhou Chenglei: "I'm too late to come back."
Jiang Xia smiled: "It's okay, they can't beat me."
Mother Zhou felt relieved when she saw that Jiang Xia was fine.
Mother Zhou went out, yelled at the closed door next door, and threw stones inside: "You are a bunch of crazy chickens, attacking the whole street @￥%%#￥@, are you trying to make money? There is no one in my family! Come and fight me! Are the pearls yours? Come out and fight me! Beat you to death, you sick chicken, %&&￥#%@￥%..."
Mother Zhou spoke a series of words to the closed courtyard door next door, each word was different!
The scolding was too fast. Zhou's mother was not a local. She used her native dialect to scold people. Jiang Xia didn't even hear clearly what she was scolding. She knew that there were many chickens, all kinds of tricks, and unscrupulous words.
Jiangxia is amazing!
My grandma said with a smile: "Your mother can scold people for half an hour. You should learn from it in the future. When you live in the village, you have to quarrel and you will suffer. Whoever bullies you will be severely punished. Swear back, otherwise everyone will think you are easy to bully, and you will be even worse next time."
Jiang Xia blinked: "I can't scold you, can you just hit me?"
The grandma laughed: "Okay, why not? If anyone hits you, hit him back! You're welcome! As long as you can't be beaten to death, that's fine! However, if you can't win, remember to run and bring in reinforcements. Don't be stupid and don't know how to run. Carry it hard. A good man won't suffer the immediate consequences and just run back. Move reinforcements, fight with people from our village, then go home, our whole family goes out, fight with other villages, and go home if we can’t fight, we go out with the whole village..."
My great-grandmother taught Jiang Xia how to fight.
Pan Daidi next door was scolding Zhou's mother in the yard and did not dare to go out.
Mother Zhou scolded her for half an hour, and she only relieved Pan Daidi when she stopped making a sound!
Not long after, Father Zhou also came back with a few bundles of bamboo. When he came back, he also heard what the people in the village said. He asked Jiang Xia if he was injured. He expressed some concern and then warned: "Most of the people in the family next door It's shameless. Next time we go out, remember to close the courtyard door at home and ignore anyone you don't know."
Jiang Xia responded.
Lunch was cooked by Zhou’s mother and Jiang Xia went to wash her hair without letting Jiang Xia do it.
Zhou Chenglei moved out a recliner for her to lie down on, and he helped her wash it. This time she felt much more comfortable.
After washing his hair and having lunch, Zhou Chenglei took the iron truck to buy some bricks, cement and sand and came back, saying that he was going to build a platform for the hand pump.
Originally, he wanted to go to the next village to buy some tiles to repair the roof of the utility room, but after the typhoon, many people's roofs were blown off, so he couldn't buy them. It would take a few days to get them.
It happens that the manhole cover is already hardened, so we can build a platform to install the water pump on it.
Jiang Xia didn’t understand either, but she had seen it in her original house. It was similar to a rectangular cement pillar. The hand pump was fixed on it, just reaching the waist, so that it would not work when pressed. It would be too hard.
Zhou Chenglei installed a hand pump, and Zhou’s father knitted a sunbathing mat.
Jiang Xia and Zhou Mu peeled the shrimp shells and sorted them by size. The peeled shrimps sold more expensively and dried faster.
The family is busy with their own affairs. Zhou Chenglei is unfamiliar with this kind of warmth and harmony, but he likes it very much.
He couldn't help but look up at Jiang Xia who was peeling the shrimp shells.
The setting sun slanted down in the yard, and she was sitting in the shade. Her hair was styled into two braids, with fine strands falling on the side of her face. It was very gentle and beautiful.
At night, after the family had dinner and took a shower, Zhou Zhou lay on the deck chair in the yard and played.
Jiang Xia came out with a plate of watermelon, placed it on the Eight Immortals table next to the recliner, and called Father Zhou, Mother Zhou and Zhou Chenglei to come and eat the watermelon.
This watermelon was given to me by Jiang Yang. Fortunately, it was freshly picked and it didn’t go bad even after being stored for two days.
Zhou Chenglei was building a grape trellis, but before it was ready, he responded: "You guys eat." Father Zhou took a piece of watermelon and took a bite: "Sweet!"
< br>Mother Zhou also took a piece, "It's sandy, it must be sweet."
Jiang Xia took a piece of watermelon and handed it to Zhou Zhou, and asked with a smile: "Is this recliner comfortable?"
"Comfortable! Very comfortable!" Zhou Zhou got up, took the watermelon, put on plastic slippers, and held The watermelon ran to Zhou Chenglei: "Uncle, eat the watermelon."
She raised the watermelon high and let Zhou Chenglei taste it.
Zhou Chenglei lowered his head and took a bite, smiling: "Sweet!"
Then he took the watermelon and said, "Go and eat it."
Zhou Chenglei finished the watermelon in two or three bites. Take a piece of watermelon and put the peel in the swill bucket.
Jiang Xia handed him another piece, but he refused and walked to the well to wash his hands.
Father Zhou also finished a few bites, washed his hands, and went back to the room. He didn’t know if the waves would be strong tomorrow and whether he would be able to go to sea. He had to go to bed early.
After finishing the meal, Mother Zhou cleared away two pieces of watermelon rinds from the table, and said to Jiang Xia, who was still eating: "After you finish eating, throw the watermelon rinds into the swill bucket and keep them to feed the chickens tomorrow. Chickens like to eat them."
As she said that, she threw the watermelon rind into the swill bucket, told Zhou Zhou to go back to bed, and also told Zhou Chenglei not to stay up so late. She didn’t know whether he would go to sea tomorrow.
Zhou Chenglei responded.
Jiang Xia finished eating the watermelon, cleared the table, and prepared to go to the toilet before going to bed.
Jiang Xia took a flashlight and went to the toilet outside.
There is no bathroom inside the house, there is a dry toilet outside the house.
It is a very low dry toilet built with mud bricks. It is built outside the house and you have to walk a few meters to go out.
She goes to the toilet every night before going to bed. To be honest, she is a little scared, mainly of snakes, but she should be more afraid of going to the toilet in the middle of the night.
As a result, Jiang Xia had a dream in the middle of the night. She dreamed of looking for the toilet. When she woke up, she found that she was in a hurry.
Maybe I ate too much watermelon before going to bed.
In the darkness, Jiang Xia regretted being greedy last night.
I don’t know if snakes come out in the middle of the night, but I’m afraid they have to go to the toilet.
Jiang Xia glanced at the man next to her. She had to crawl over him when she got up to go to the toilet.
But she became more and more anxious, and she couldn't help it anymore.
She sat up gently, carefully stretched out one foot, placed it beside him, and then stretched out a hand to step over him.
Zhou Chenglei had just fallen asleep not long ago. He vaguely felt the movement of the people around him, but didn't pay attention. After all, she always liked to put her hands and feet on him after falling asleep.
There was just something wrong. He had always felt shallow and felt her breath on his face. When he opened his eyes, he found that Jiang Xia was indeed riding on him.
Jiang Xia forgot that her knee was injured, stepped over his body, and the moment she knelt down, the wound hurt, and she hit him directly.
Zhou Chenglei subconsciously put his arms around her waist to protect her from falling off the bed.
In the darkness, their eyes faced each other and they could not see each other clearly.
But he held her and she lay on his side, each other's breaths intertwined.
Zhou Chenglei's eyes darkened, his arms tightened unconsciously, and he turned over to press her under him.
