Su Yuanyuan put away all the firewood. She thought she might as well go back, or come back tomorrow?
But what if it snows today?
I have no choice but to get up and continue working. I don’t have the capital to enjoy it now.
Finally I saw a dead tree as big as a bowl. I should be able to chop it down.
I excitedly picked up a safety ax. When I get rich, I will definitely get a sharp ax and machete.
The tree must have been dead for several years. Su Yuanyuan cut it into several sections very easily and put it away with a wave of her hand.
Probably because her "biological father" took pity on her, she looked up and saw a few trees like this in front of her, but they were all thicker than this one.
Su Yuanyuan ran over excitedly. Now her back ached and she was no longer restless. She picked up the ax and started working.
These few trees were enough for her to burn for a while. Now her tense heart relaxed a little.
They have all been put into the space, and the sun is almost setting. No, I have to go back immediately. It will be dark when I get home.
Suddenly, I discovered that there was a fungus on a dead tree. Su Yuanyuan was not stupid. She didn’t have the time to pick it. It was too late and she just put it into the space.
I still ran all the way, and when I got home, my back was soaked.
After entering this broken home, she finally felt at ease.
I immediately started to light a fire and boil water. Although I could take a bath in the space, I still had to sleep at night. The kang was too cold. Even if there was an electric mattress, I couldn't use it. It was really helpless.
But the hot water bottle can be used. Su Yuanyuan thinks that her habit of collecting rags is her own virtue.
After boiling the water, I took off my outer clothes and washed them. The clothes were already covered with dirt today.
After the clothes were washed and hung outside to control the water, I remembered that the firewood, branches, and hay in the space were put in the woodshed. I saw that the place was quite big, so I leaned to the side and put out all the dead trees.
Fortunately, the space has a self-cleaning function, otherwise Su Yuanyuan would have suffered a broken diaphragm.
Good guys, there are so many of them, they are almost on the roof.
Looking at the firewood, Su Yuanyuan smiled, feeling really accomplished.
After returning to the house, the water in the pot was hot again. I took out a large Japanese melon from the space, cut it, took out all the Japanese melon seeds and put them aside. I put the Japanese melon on the steamer and ignored it.
A lot of these Japanese melon seeds can be planted, and it is estimated that they can weigh several thousand kilograms. I went up the mountain to look around, and found that there are still places where I can grow food. In those few years, I will go up to the mountain to plant them.
You can't help the villagers openly, but you can still let them go up the mountain to pick it. Anyway, you are just responsible for planting it.
It's not the Holy Mother, but people are starving to death, but I can still eat well, and it's easy for others to target me.
Just as I was about to enter the space to take a shower, I heard shouting outside.
"Auntie."
"What are you doing today, girl?"
"Auntie, come in and sit down."
Hu Chunhua was fine today, so he came over here to see how the girl was doing. Unexpectedly, no one answered after calling for a long time. He asked the child to come over again during dinner, but there was still no one.
As the women's director, she is very serious and responsible for her work. Now this girl is equivalent to an orphan. No matter what, she cannot let this child have no way of survival.
"Auntie, I went to collect firewood. I'm afraid there won't be any firewood to burn in the winter. It hasn't snowed yet. If we wait until it snows, we really won't be able to collect it."
"Hey, those two wolf-hearted things. If they don't take away their own daughter and don't give them a way to live, they are really not human beings.
Yuanyuan, you went up the mountain? You must be careful." There was no place for her to collect firewood.
"Well, we're going up the mountain. There's only firewood on the mountain.
I was lucky enough to get some dead trees down."
Su Yuanyuan originally thought she would get a compliment, but what she didn't expect was a scolding: "Damn girl, have you gone to the mountains?"
"Auntie, no, I didn't go. At first I was making hay and picking up branches. Then I found several dead trees and brought them back."
"It's still nonsense. Only poplar and locust trees can be found above the mountainside, and only dead trees can be found."
"Auntie, I will freeze to death in the winter if I don't collect firewood. Don't worry. I haven't even seen a rabbit."
Hu Chunhua sighed, yes, it is better than freezing to death.
"Ask your uncle to go with you tomorrow."
"Mom, no need, I'll just make hay tomorrow." There's no need to let others follow you and take the risk. After all, you're safe.
"I will go home to get you a hatchet, but you must be careful.
It will be fine next year, and the corn stalks in my own field can be used as firewood."
"Well, thank you, aunt."
Hu Chunhua smelled the sweet smell of Japanese melon, but she didn't ask. She hurried home to get the hatchet.
In the end, Su Yuanyuan did not steam Japanese melons for Hu Chunhua. Every family here grows Japanese melons.
After sending the kind-hearted female director away, Su Yuanyuan entered the space to take a shower.
Dinner was also served there. When we came out, the Japanese melons were already ripe.
Then I took out a basin from the space, as well as white flour yeast, mixed it with Japanese melon, and steamed a pot of steamed buns in a while. It should be very delicious.
Two hours later, I put the steamed buns away and slept peacefully with a hot water bottle in my arms.
When I got up the next day, I had a glass of milk, a steamed bun with Japanese melon noodles, and a piece of ham sausage, and then I went up the mountain with a basket and a hatchet on my back.
Today, when she got the tool, Su Yuanyuan wanted to try it. It was definitely much sharper than a safety axe, but it was still difficult for such a small body. However, she still chopped down a tree without any hesitation.
Now I don't have the strength to cut it into sections anymore, so I just need to put it into the space.
I sat drinking water and sighed. I still had no money. It would be great if I could just buy coal to burn. But everyone knew that in their situation, they didn’t have a penny, so how could they buy things.
Thinking of this, I couldn't help but sigh again. It's just a hard life, so let's keep working. There's no time to rest now.
Walking towards the second dead tree and finally cutting it down, Su Yuanyuan felt that her hands were sticky. It turned out that it was because she held the hatchet too hard, and her hands were blistered and bled after it broke.
It hurts, it really hurts. When I was working just now, I was all focused on cutting down the tree and didn't pay attention. Now that I'm done, I feel the excruciating pain.
Su Yuanyuan sat on the ground, put away the dead trees, and sat there crying.
I rarely cried in my previous life because I knew that even if I cried, I would not get a happy family and no one would feel sorry for me or comfort me.
I am really desperate now. It feels like living is not easy.
The more Su Yuanyuan cried, the more she felt wronged, and she ended up crying loudly.
I was so tired and my body was so weak that I actually fell asleep crying.
In her sleep, it was the scene of her kneeling at the door of the procuratorate in her previous life. In order to seek justice for her grandmother, she knelt at the door every day when they were at work.
