The lady asked, handing him a bowl of boiling water.
Although Xie Fu was tired, his face was full of smiles.
Seeing such children around his knees, he felt that the whole day's efforts were worth it.
Isn’t it just for the sake of a warm home that I have sacrificed everything?
"You can move tomorrow, and you can go to school the day after tomorrow." Thinking of this, he smiled and answered to his wife and children.
The children were so happy that they jumped up one after another.
One daughter blushed and shouted, "We have a new house."
"We have a new school." The other three sons shouted at the top of their lungs.
The six-year-old daughter looked at Xie Fu longingly and asked stammeringly: "Mom and dad, can I go to school?"
She heard that she could go to school, but she didn't know if it was true. She felt like she had fifteen buckets of water in her heart, and she was very nervous.
"Of course you can go to school." Xie Fu couldn't explain what he felt and nodded.
Huang Dong and Tian Liang led a group of men to a viewing pavilion on the mountain.
The viewing pavilion is at the highest point on the mountain, and there are stone steps connected to the residential and government buildings below the mountain.
They looked down the mountain, and everyone felt proud.
There are clanging sounds everywhere, and there are construction sites for miles around Zhangjiazhuang.
Thousands of people were digging, carrying baskets, and building houses, and there was a lot of excitement and excitement.
Huang Dong originally planned to build a road one foot wide, but now he gritted his teeth and simply built a road two feet wide.
There are street trees in the middle and on both sides, which has undergone earth-shaking changes from the previous stone road.
Next to the original pavilion, government offices, schools, and medical clinics were also built.
Especially in the school, there are already students reading today, and the sound of reading can even reach the mountains.
More than 200 thatched houses were built for free for slum dwellers.
Although it is a thatched house, the condition is not bad.
They are not the kind of weak fences, they are all solid earth walls and spines.
As long as the conditions are right, it can be turned into a tile-roofed house at any time.
The houses are all neat and tidy, with drainage ditches, bamboo bushes, and yellow jujube trees.
These houses are stacked on top of each other according to the topography.
If the Xiejiazhuang opposite is an ink painting in black and white, the new residence in Zhangjiazhuang is a landscape painting with yellow as the main tone.
At this time, it was noon, and rows of smoke were rising from the chimneys of every house.
Yes, after so many years, smoke has never risen at noon, but it did rise today.
Xie Fu was assigned a six-room apartment and was extremely happy.
He has five children, including his parents, a total of nine.
My parents are still old, only in their early forties, and they also go out to work to earn money.
There are four children, aged ten, eight, six and four years old respectively. Three are in school and one is in kindergarten.
Sanniang was only two years old. She was too young to go to kindergarten and stayed at home with her mother.
She pulled her mother and asked her to accompany her out for a walk.
Xie Ranshi didn't know what her daughter was going to do. Thinking that she was the youngest, she had no choice but to let her go.
Unexpectedly, Sanniang actually dragged her around.
The place where they were wandering around was none other than the new residence area and the small house at home.
It turned out that Sanniang regarded her new residence as a tourist place and looked at it again and again.
This wasn't over yet, she was still dragging her mother around in circles in her house.
After looking carefully in each room, he sat down on each bed to sleep.
Xie Ran felt that her daughter was really embarrassed, but at first glance, it was not only the third wife in her family who was like this, but also the children in other families.
She was extremely anxious while accompanying Sanniang around.
Not only does she have to accompany her daughter at home, she also has to cook and do laundry.
Fortunately, the tired Sanniang lay down on her own bed, allowing him to finally have time to wash and cook.
Sanniang slept on the bed for about half an hour when she was woken up by a pungent fragrance.
She jumped out of bed and ran towards the scent.
Sanniang came to the kitchen and said, holding her fingers in her mouth and drooling: "Mother, why are you making lunch today?"
"Your mother-in-law and father are hungry. Mother will bring him lunch." Xie Ranshi stroked her hair while placing food in the food box.
Sanniang looked at Xie Ran with her big eyes and asked cutely: "Mother, Weng Weng, mother-in-law, and father were also hungry before. Why didn't we have lunch at noon?"
Xie Ranshi blushed and said awkwardly: "Sanniang, there was no food at home before, so there was no lunch. Now it's better, there is lunch at noon."
"Mom, will there be lunch later?" Sanniang seemed to understand her mother's answer, but she remembered a question and asked eagerly.
Xie Ran touched Sanniang's little face lovingly and nodded: "Of course, there is lunch every day."
"That's great." Sanniang's eyes widened and her saliva became more and more drooling: "Mom, I'm hungry."
"How could this person forget Sanniang?" Xie Ran kissed Sanniang and immediately scooped a bowl for her and another bowl for herself.
Sanniang was eating happily, her eyes turning into crescent moons as she smiled.
On the mountain, Huang Dong and Tian Liang nodded with satisfaction, eating food and drinking tea.
Suddenly, bang bang, bang bang, the official drum sounded.
Upon hearing this voice, several people's expressions changed drastically.
This big drum was set up but no one has beaten it yet.
Huang Dong immediately put down the tea cup and food in his hand and hurried down the stone staircase.
Zhang Hede had a desperate expression while beating the drum. This was his last hope.
He was about forty, somewhat elegant, and at this time he was beating the drum with both hands.
His wife stood aside, sobbing so loudly that she could barely make a sound.
Her wife is about thirty-six or seventy-seven, and her eyes have turned into peaches.
At this time, she was extremely angry and was on the verge of collapse. Fortunately, there was a young man supporting her.
The boy was about fourteen or fifteen years old. His appearance was similar to Zhang Hede's imagination, and he looked like he should be his son.
His eyes kept streaming with tears, and his body was swaying, but he persisted and did not fall.
At this time, he was supporting his mother with one hand and wiping away his tears, but he could not wipe them all away.
Huang Dong ran down panting and came to the public room to sit down.
There were two people sitting on both sides of him, Hu Bo and Ren Huanghe, the two deputy pavilion chiefs.
The four patrol inspectors held water and fire sticks and knocked on the ground while shouting: "Mighty."
"Tell me, sir, please save the villain's son." Zhang Hede came to Huang Dong's desk, bowed his hands, and begged.
Huang Dong looked at the family and nodded.
Then he felt that something was wrong, and his expression suddenly turned serious. He was stunned and asked in a deep voice: "What happened to your son? Do you need to save your son?"
It was the first time for him to sit in the court, and he felt that he should show a mighty look.
"Report to the official, the villain's son Zhang Wang was soaked in a pig cage." Zhang Hede said tremblingly.
Huang Dong did not comment: "Why was he soaked in a pig cage?"
"The villain's son likes a woman and is imprisoned in a pig cage." Zhang Hede hesitated for a while before speaking slowly.
Huang Dong was a little puzzled and patted the wooden door: "It is human nature for a man to love a woman. Why was he dipped in a pig cage?"
"I'm telling you, sir, this villain's son, son, son, likes this woman, but she is someone else's son-in-law." Zhang Hede looked a little embarrassed and hesitantly finally spoke out.
"How dare you, someone else's family has a married woman, how can you allow your son to be infected?" Huang Dong patted the gavel and shouted loudly. "You deserve it, retreat."
You deserve to be beaten to death if you steal a married woman or dip into a pig cage.
"Tell me, sir, that woman is a widow." Zhang Hede's face turned the color of pig liver, his heart almost jumped out of his chest, and he said bravely.
Huang Dong patted the gavel again and shouted: "Since you are already a widow, it is not a problem to go home and get married again."
"I'm telling you, that woman's husband's family is very strict with her. She is not allowed to return to her parents' home, let alone remarry." Zhang Hede breathed a sigh of relief and told the whole story.
"It doesn't make sense. Even Layman Yi An (Li Qingzhao) can remarry, why can this girl remarry?" Huang Dong was shocked again.
Zhang Hede was overjoyed, bowed his hands, and asked cautiously, "Master, is it not illegal for the villain's son to like that woman? Is it illegal? Please make the decision for the villain's son."
"Which family's daughter-in-law she is? Tell me. I will make the decision for you, right?" Huang Dong felt that the other party was reasonable and decided to take care of everything.
Zhang Hede was extremely happy. He bowed his hands and said cautiously, "I'm telling you, it's the son of Xie Jia Zhuang who has divorced his wife."
"Which one is it? Tell me clearly. Don't hesitate." Huang Dong patted the gavel again and asked sternly.
Zhang Hede hesitated for a few moments, then bowed his hands and said, "I'm telling you, this is Xie He, the son-in-law of Xie Deshu, the deputy patriarch of Xiejiazhuang."
No wonder he was hesitant, the other party had a lot of background, he was the deputy patriarch of Xie Family Village.
But since Huang Dong agreed, he would stick to it till the end.
"Where are they now? Tell me clearly." Huang Dong frowned, patted the gavel and asked.
Zhang Hede did not hesitate at this time. He raised his hands and said, "I'm telling you, my son Zhang Wang and Xie He are in a pool behind Xiejiazhuang. Please help me."
"My lord, please save my son. If it's too late, there will be no one left." Zhang Hede's wife didn't care to salute, she looked up to the sky and howled loudly.
If her son hadn't held her up, she might have fallen to the ground.
"Zishui, you stay with me, I will lead people to rescue people." Without any hesitation, Huang Dong ordered a group of subordinates, "Act immediately."
Xie He is only eighteen years old, and it is the most beautiful years of his life.
She has fair skin, an oval face, and eyebrows.
At this time, while struggling desperately, she shouted loudly: "Let go of the slave family, let go of the slave family. The slave family doesn't want to die. The slave family doesn't want to die."
However, her struggles and shouts had no effect at all. Her hands were tied up with a rope from the hospital and she was forced into a long pig cage.
Opposite her was a weak-headed young man dressed as a scribe.
The young man has prominent facial features, a slender face, long eyebrows and a slender figure.
"Help, help, help." He was struggling desperately and shouting loudly.
Although he struggled fiercely, several nursing homes struggled even more.
They pinned him to the ground, while another person held a rope and quickly tied his hands and feet tightly, and finally stuffed him into a long pig cage.
At this time, several other nursing homes found a huge stone and tied it under the pig cage of the two people.
Not far from the two of them, there was a table.
There was a person sitting on the table, his face was gloomy as if it could drip water.
This person is none other than Xie Deshu, the deputy patriarch of Xiejiazhuang.
At this time, Xie Deshu clapped the wooden board in his hand, with a sarcastic smile on his face, and shouted loudly: "Sink the adulterer and the adulteress into the pool."
