Chapter 22: Something happened at home, no updates this week
Although Aunt Chengjia said that there was no need to tidy up the dishes and chopsticks, she would tidy them up when dinner was served.
But according to etiquette, if you eat the food sent by others without washing the bowl, you will be laughed at as lazy and rude.
Since there was nothing to do in the afternoon, Su Qingqing carried the bucket, asked Mu Jinxing to get towels and basins, and took the children to find the river.
Bring some water to wash up with and wash the dishes.
There are many items in the house, which is a home. Su Qingqing is worried that homeless people will steal things.
She took the antique lock from the space and locked the door.
Another thought, locks can only protect against gentlemen, but they cannot protect against villains.
She also took out a sensor alarm with a battery from the space.
As long as someone comes within one foot of the house door, the alarm will sound.
After the arrangements were made, Su Qingqing took the children to find Xiaohe with peace of mind.
Just as they left, a person came quietly to the small house from the alley next to the house next door.
The man kept his head down and waited until Su Qingqing and the others disappeared at the end of the long alley. Then he rolled up his sleeves and happily walked to the door of the house.
It turns out that this is a thief.
Recently, he has been specializing in stealing the property of refugees.
When he saw the married family renting a small house for Su Qingqing, mother and son, he had been secretly waiting for the opportunity.
If you start a wealthy family, your acquaintances and friends must be rich.
However, as soon as the thief walked to the door of the house, before his hand even touched the door, there was a sound of human voices coming from the door.
"Don't come near! Don't come near! Master, a stranger is visiting. Master, a stranger is visiting!"
The sound is not too small.
The thief was so frightened that he ran away.
He muttered in his heart, didn't the young lady lock the door?
Why is there still someone talking inside?
When he ran to the intersection ahead, he looked back at the small house to make sure no one was chasing him. He patted his chest and let out a long breath.
Scared to death!
Forget it, forget it, you can't steal it from this house, go to another house.
.
Su Qingqing followed the direction given by Aunt Chengjia and found the river as expected.
She sighed inwardly.
What kind of river is this?
This is a small ditch!
Less than a meter deep and less than five meters wide.
But look at the high river bank. During the flood season, the river can reach about 20 meters wide, so boats can indeed be used.
Now let alone the boat, you can jump to the other side by taking a few steps.
Perhaps it was during the famine years, and there was no dense green grass along the river, only a lot of broken grass, which had obviously been pulled up by hungry people.
Far away in the river, some people stood in the river, looking for something.
The river is so shallow and there are so many victims. How can any fish or shrimps be left behind?
Su Qingqing watched for a long time, but didn't see those people find any fish or shrimps. They grabbed a handful of water plants and threw them away in disappointment.
The water in the river is quite clear, and you can clearly see the gravel on the bottom of the river.
The sun was shining brightly above our heads, and the children were getting hot all the way.
Everyone cheered when they saw the water.
Su Qingqing took the children to wash their hands and faces.
She took another piece of antique soap mud from the space, deliberately broke it into two pieces, rubbed it a few times, and handed a piece to Mu Jinxing first, "Find it from the kitchen, wash your hair, and then give it to Mu Jinxing." Chenhui and Xiaoyun also wash their hair."
Mu Jinxing looked at a yellow-gray thing and opened his eyes wide, "Sister-in-law, this thing looks like mud, can it wash your hair?"
"This is what we use here, wash it quickly! My uncle should look like a younger uncle! Your two nephews are watching you, and they will follow your example." Su Qingqing gave him a high hat.
Mu Jinxing sighed. Although he was an uncle, he was only a sixth grade student!
"Okay." Mu Jinxing took the soap locust mud piece.
Su Qingqing takes care of four-year-old fat boy Mu Chenyao and six-year-old daughter Mu Chenxi.
She fetched a bucket of water, raised it to a slightly flat area, and washed the hair of the two children in turn.
The two of them were laughing and chatting while enjoying their mother's Tony service.
After washing, Su Qingqing threw a towel to them each and said, "Dry them yourself."
The two children shook the towel and looked at her dumbfounded, "Mom, how do you dry it?"
Su Qingqing: "..."
If God gives her another chance to travel through time, she will definitely teach all the children survival skills first!
But now, she even has to teach me how to dry my hair!
"It's not difficult to do this." Mu Yunxiao walked up to them slightly and rubbed them with a towel.
Mu Chenyao and Mu Chenxi watched for a while and immediately started to follow suit.
Su Qingqing breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, he had a son who was picked up halfway and was quite smart.
On the other side, Mu Jinxing and Mu Chenhui were very happy.
The satisfaction rating is only six points.
Su Qingqing didn't care and just let them go.
In such difficult circumstances, cleanliness and perfection must give way to survival.
The sun was strong and the wind was strong, and soon their hair was half dry.
As before, the older boys were under the control of Mu Jin, while Su Qingqing was in charge of the daughters and younger ones.
Everyone packed up, Su Qingqing brought a basin of water, Mu Jinxing and Mu Yun together brought a bucket of water, and returned to the house.
In order not to make the children suspicious, Su Qingqing walked over first, quietly took out the anti-theft alarm, and then unlocked it.
She found that there were several more men's footprints in front of the door.
The corners of Su Qingqing's lips raised.
Let’s take a look at the function of anti-theft devices.
After washing a few bowls, Su Qingqing arranged for everyone to take turns taking a bath while it was still early.
It was hot and she didn't heat the water.
Besides, she didn't know where to find firewood at the moment.
There is firewood everywhere outside the city, and it is difficult to find roots and grass in the city.
For example, by the river just now, all the longer grass had been pulled out.
Bathing is a big deal.
Except for Mu Jinxing and Mu Yun, none of the other children knew how to bathe themselves.
When it was inconvenient to get water, Su Qingqing did not let the children wash themselves.
She bathed the younger children respectively, while Mu Jinxing was responsible for fetching water.
It's a mile from the small house to the river.
Mu Jinxing, who had a skinny monkey figure, was so tired that he almost cried.
"I want to go back to the Mu family villa! I want a nanny."
Su Qingqing said coolly: "Before we came here, your teacher just sent me a WeChat message saying that you were skipping school. Your parents also sent a WeChat message saying that if I see you skipping school, you want me to report it to them..."
Before she finished speaking, Mu Jinxing's expression immediately changed.
"Don't tell my dad about my truancy, sister-in-law, I can do whatever you want." Mu Jinxing looked sad and bowed to Su Qingqing, almost kowtow.
The corners of Su Qingqing's lips raised as she looked at the dilapidated hut, "Then don't go back. It's nice here. You don't have to go to school."
Mu Jinxing smiled coquettishly, "Yes, yes, it's good. You don't have to go to school."
.
After everyone took a bath, Su Qingqing arranged for Mu Jinxing to fetch water. She took off everyone's outer clothes, rubbed them a few times, washed away the dust, and took bamboo poles to hang in the courtyard to dry.
The sun was strong and the wind was strong, and by dusk my clothes were all dry.
.
After taking a bath, washing her hair, and combing it again, Su Qingqing also tied her daughter's hair into pigtails and a small headband.
When Grandma Chengjia brought dinner, she saw Su Qingqing and several children, and she was so shocked that she thought she had gone to the wrong place.
Because their clothes have completely changed.
