Chapter 238 Cellar

Since the victims were to be taken in for work, the problem of food and shelter should be solved more properly. At the very least, they couldn' t let them live in the woods outside the city anymore. The weather wasn' t cold yet. During the cold winter and winter months, the tree shelter couldn' t withstand the north wind at all. If a few more people were frozen to death, they would really regret it.

The lin family village was located on the plain, with no mountains to lean on, and no lakes or oceans to earn a living. Thus, it would not be a good place to live. Winter was cold, so there was no need to count on it. The only thing left was peace.

Li zheng and the elders were invited to the lin family, and the table was set up as usual. After a large bowl of strong pottery wine was served, everyone began to help out.

"In other words, when our ancestors first arrived at beimao, they were too frozen to bear. They had no money to build a house, so they came up with a solution. Dig a hole! Like the wild animals in the mountains, winter cats, if the fire does not burn, the hole is warmer than the empty house. "

This was fifth master lin. Because of the smell of alcohol, his face turned redder. He recalled the stories he heard from his elders when he was young and was even more excited.

"It is not easy to dig a cave now, and you are in a hurry to live there. It is better to dig a hole in the ground. It was warmer than the cave except for the dark spots. But be aware of the same, is the smoke, inside the fire easily stuffy people. As long as this doesn't go wrong, everything else will be fine. "

After all, li zheng was more knowledgeable than the other villagers. When he heard this, he said," last year, I went to little wang village and saw two families living in this kind of cellar in their village. I even met those two families this summer and they didn' t freeze to death. It seems that this cellar is indeed a good place to live in. "

"Let brother bao drive the car tomorrow. Let's go and take a look. If it's not bad, let's ask everyone to help us dig." "

Elder lin nodded and agreed.

Another clan elder poured wine while instructing," I see that the day is not good, after seven or eight days is afraid of heavy snow, to busy son as soon as possible." "

"We' ll see tomorrow and bring the victims to work together. After all, it's for them to live here, so they should put in some effort." Before the weather changes, dig out the cellar. "

"Alright, a woman who can' t do manual work will go and gather firewood. There are so many underground areas to burn for the winter, but it will take a lot of firewood. "

"There are so many people that it is troublesome to eat and drink lazarus. The cellar can not be built too far away from the river, but also a few more thatched houses, after the year dug out a few more acres of land. "

"You can't be too fastidious at a time like this. It would be better to separate the men and women so that they could save some energy and be careful to create some ugly things. "

Three cobblers, one Zhu Geliang.

Everyone talked to each other. After a banquet, they discussed the matter.

On the second day, lin dahai sent food to the outside of the city as usual. Both lin dahe and fang jie helped to take care of him. Old master lin brought the elders of the li zheng clan to visit little wang village by car.

The two families did not have to say that they were poor, otherwise no one would leave a good big house to live, must live in the dark half underground.

Old master lin gave them a small bag of white rice and two boxes of snacks. The two families welcomed them into the house happily.

The so-called underground cellar was actually not much different from the underground cellar.

A flat ground must be dug out a number of flue, flue top is a big stove, tail is a chimney. The flue-channel is covered with canes or broken boards, slated with thick wet mud mixed with straw and straw to increase stability. Then the stove fires, and the smoke passes through the flue, and the clay kang heats up, and finally the smoke goes down the chimney to the outside. If you want to keep the adobe kang hot for a long time, there is a baffle on the chimney root, it is easy to hold the smoke.

Under the kang, a three-foot-wide three-foot-tall corridor was dug, and the dirt was thrown directly to the ground. When piled up, the back wall was built. The front wall was two feet higher than the back wall, and two or three small windows were inlaid.

And the roof is a slope, still rattan bone, covered with linoleum, thick mud tile.

As a whole, this kind of cellar was poorly lit and extremely narrow, but the advantage was that it could burn the whole house with very little firewood, and the big kang was also warm.

For the victims who were the number one survivor, living decently was secondary. Surviving this cold winter was not the same as the frozen stumps on the road.

After sitting for a while, old master lin and the others left. They also decided to help the entire village build a cellar for the victims.

Xiao wang village was also a sleek village, listening to the old man to observe the cellar was to help the victims of the winter, when the chest, with the village's labor, and two old residents of the cellar to help.

Old master lin naturally wouldn' t reject his kindness. There wasn' t a shortage of food and drink in the house. By then, he would provide three full meals and add a few extra slices of fat meat, which would be enough to repay everyone's kindness.

Jiao Jiao originally wanted to follow her grandfather to see what the cellar looked like, but she refused to let her granddaughter out, afraid that her granddaughter would be frightened.

From the old lady's point of view, a child was still young, and his soul was still unstable. If he had been frightened many times, his soul would easily disperse. At that time, he would not be able to solve it with just a few doses of tranquilizers. He was afraid that he would really lose his life.

Jiao Jiao did not feel that her life was so fragile, but her grandmother doted on her and she had to be grateful. So she did not get into the carriage.

Just then, zhou xinxiu was going to the chicken house. Jiao Jiao thought that she hadn't visited the chickens for a long time, so she followed her aunt to the chicken farm.

In the end, as soon as she arrived at the chicken farm, she realized that it was very lively here.

Most of the aunts and sister-in-law of the same tribe came. The one who helped to fill the water, the one who helped to fill the materials, was all smiles, and was busier than his own work.

The water was fine, but it was just carrying a bucket and ladling a ladle into the sink. The material was a" hard" job, but it didn' t take much effort. It really took a lot of courage.

The earth dragon pond that was built in the past had already been cleared twice. The earth dragon inside had grown three inches a day because of the temperature and humidity. As long as it touched the surface of the floating soil, it was almost filled with earth dragons.

He grabbed a handful of them and put them on the chopping board. The big kitchen knife clattered down, chopped them into small pieces, and stirred up the chaff. There were also various kinds of bone powder that were roasted and crushed. They filled the trough together, causing the chickens to go crazy. In the blink of an eye, they ate the earth dragon clean. Finally, they slowly began to eat the chaff.

Although the earth dragon trough was built by Jiao Jiao's brother, she really couldn' t see the ground dragon that was rolling in a dense mass. So she hid far away, but when she turned around, she saw fourth aunt standing beside her ...

The two of them looked like this and caused the women in the tribe to laugh at them." The wife of the mountain and Jiao Jiao are born rich and powerful. They are even afraid of earth dragons. They're not snakes, they don't bite! "
