Chapter 243 Sleeping at the Captain's House
Chapter 243 Sleeping at the Captain's House
The captain laughed when he heard Shen Jiaren's words. He had been crying bitterly just now and was now worried about his cold hands. He really didn't know whether to praise her for being sensible or what to say.
He just waved at Shen Jiaren and ignored her.
Shen Jiaren held the things and called Wangcai and Heilang to follow her, and then walked towards the captain's house.
When Shen Jiaren followed the captain to his house and stood inside the house, she felt a little embarrassed.
At that time, in rural areas, especially in this area, people slept on the kang in winter. The winter was relatively long, and except for those who had gotten married and moved out of the family, or those whose children had grown up a lot, everyone else slept on the kang together.
Shen Jiaren stood in the room looking at the row of children lying on the kang in the captain's house. She felt so embarrassed that she wanted to tap the ground with her toes.
Liu Mei saw Shen Jiaren like this and said with a smile, "You haven't talked about this before, hahahahahahahahahahaha, it's warm to sleep like this, and it can also save firewood, so basically every household does this.
Don't feel embarrassed, the head of the kang is the best, so you can sleep there.
Don't be shy, I'll sleep next to you and the kids will sleep next to me."
Shen Jiaren didn't know what to say, because it was someone else's good intention, but this good intention was a little hard for Shen Jiaren to accept.
Seeing Shen Jiaren like this, Liu Mei sighed and said, "If you don't want to, just wait a moment. I'll clean up the side room next door and open the flue. Although the temperature is a little low, it's still okay for sleeping."
Shen Jiaren held the things and nodded quickly and said thank you.
Liu Mei shook her head, not knowing what to say. She really didn't know what to say to these educated youth. Then she pouted at Shen Jiaren and said, "Put the things in your arms there. Although the ear room next door is for quilts and mattresses, it still needs to be swept and wiped a little.
I'll go get a basin of water, and then I'll sweep and you can wipe, it'll be faster this way."
Shen Jiaren nodded and followed Liu Mei.
Liu Mei looked at the tail behind her, smiled and shook her head.
It didn't take long for the two of them to clean up the next room and lay out the quilt and mattress for Shen Jiaren so she could go to sleep at any time.
When Shen Jiaren was lying on the kang, Shen Jiaren suddenly remembered, I lost it. The purpose of coming back this time was to get the money to pretend to be rich. Now, how can I take the coal for my own stove to the town?
And the coal stove was also placed at the entrance of the yard. This is really...
Shen Jiaren thought of Black Panther and Duoduo again and wanted to start crying.
This is really... I don’t know why it turned out like this.
I clearly promised that I would let the military dog live well, but now...
When Shen Jiaren thought of this, she wanted to cry again.
After crying for a while, Shen Jiaren suddenly remembered that she and Aunt Jiang had agreed to meet at the entrance of her alley tomorrow morning. If she slept at the captain's place today, would it affect her going to town tomorrow?
After all, Shen Jiaren wanted to go to the military dog team behind the Public Security Bureau tomorrow to find Xiao Zhang, who was the contact person at the time, and tell him if there was any way to find out the cause of death.
If possible, Shen Jiaren also wanted to go to the police station to report the case and let the police investigate it.
Thinking of this, Shen Jiaren suddenly felt that tomorrow was very important, so she went to bed quickly.
I have to find someone to take charge of Black Panther and Duoduo tomorrow.
