My live broadcast room communicates ancient and modern

The Xu family had finished their meal long ago, leaving only a table full of people to eat after returning late.

On the kang table support.

Xu Tianxin brought a large bowl of meat sauce noodles with poached eggs into the room, along with the remaining half plate of vinegared cabbage from the evening, and a small plate of freshly fried fish and placed them in front of the table full of grandma.

This little fish was brought by the grandmothers in the village when they came to visit us.

During the flood days, there were so many fish in the village that my grandfather, who had bad legs and feet, did nothing to avoid causing trouble at home, so he looked for a gap in the dam to pick up fish.

There were no spare fishing nets to be found, and all the fishing nets in the village were in use, so they just waited for the fish to jump up and take them away.

It is also called euphemistically. If the fish does not jump up, it means that the fish is not in good health and should not be used.

That person had a good attitude, but his house was flooded, and his grandma who came to visit is still very angry when she talks about it.

However, I did take home a lot, so I gave a lot to the Xu family as gifts.

At this time, the table full of people had just finished taking a shower, and it was her elder sister who helped rub their backs.

She sat at the kang table with her semi-wet hair, rolled up a chopstick of noodles with a strong meaty aroma, and when she ate it into her mouth, she almost cried because of the smell.

The whole table was thinking:
During these days when I'm away from home, it doesn't matter if I'm thirsty or hungry. I just keep rushing to strange places, queuing up to enter different cities, constantly dealing with strangers selling goods, and forcing myself to open my mouth even if I don't dare. Not even thinking.

Unexpectedly, I suddenly became vulnerable when I returned home.

Perhaps because of this moment, all I saw were familiar faces, and I was finally able to let go of all my defenses. I was eating food carefully cooked at home, and my buttocks were warmed by the hot Kang.

The whole table hurriedly forced back the tears. In order to stop thinking about it, Mrs. Xu happened to be measuring Tian Xin'er's size with a wooden ruler. She quickly asked curiously:
"What is this doing?"

Mrs. Xu squinted her eyes to see the lines drawn on the wooden ruler. Unfortunately, the wooden ruler was too old and she couldn't see clearly at all.What kind of crap is this? I have to ask my second brother to make a ruler again.

Hearing this, he did not hide anything and replied:

"I want to buy some winter clothes for the family. I set up the shop and walked back and forth. How can I not wear anything warm in the winter? My family has been dealing with it for too many years. The quilt is no longer a quilt and the clothes are all patched. The kids in the family were last time When I have more clothes and quilts and still have a field to live, I want to take advantage of this and stop dealing with it."

The whole table responded: "That's right, let's go through hardships and earn money just to have enough food and clothing."

But her family didn't want to add more, and she was anxious to show her eldest son's brain.Her eldest son was not very smart after a fall, and now she is bald like others, which shows that if the stupid disease is not cured, it will be too late, and she has to save money.

Mrs. Xu continued: "On the other hand, didn't you notice when I went out this time? Alas, I won't mention those sad words."

Mrs. Xu thought of her granddaughter. She was very polite to everyone she met. Compared with the children here, who really loved to be clean, but she was rolled their eyes and disliked. Wasn't it just because of her clothes and grooming?
“People respect their clothes, horses respect their saddles, and dogs hang bells and run happily. These are all things that count.

I was also thinking that it would be unconvincing that our family would dress in tatters when entertaining distinguished guests, but the meals they sold would be quite expensive.

When distinguished guests look at my image, they will feel that it is not worth it before they even get their meal. For this reason, we cannot wear too shabby clothes.

But as the three boys and the daughter-in-law, I know well that Tian Xin has recently grown taller, and I am afraid that the clothes will not fit me properly. "

"you do?"

Mrs. Xu shook her head: "I don't have time. I just wanted to accurately measure the waist, shoulder, collar, and sleeve length. Tomorrow, Liu Laozhu will go to another village to sell goods. I asked him to help deliver it to my daughter-in-law. My dear mother. Didn’t I ask her to make shoes to sell? I also sent them along with the cloth and cotton for making shoes."

New bedding included.

Mrs. Xu gestured to the full table to eat while it was still hot, while chatting in her heart:

"You said I have to pay some wages, right?

Qin Niang's eldest brother helps out here for free. I have carefully reviewed him in the past two days. He is really an honest young man. I don't want to pay him a penny.

It's not like asking my mother-in-law to make clothes and quilts for Bai.

I thought I would hire anyone, but it would be easy to talk too much if I hired someone from the village. Instead of going out and saying that my God of Wealth brags about having plenty of money, why not hire her.

I didn’t even tell my daughter-in-law that it was being made for me, so that I wouldn’t be told that I was too bald to accept the wages, and only gave me the measurements. "

After listening to this, the whole table quickly put down their chopsticks to help measure Tian Xin's body.

Mrs. Xu was not polite either.

There are two different things between her being able to make clothes with her original memory and actually making them.

Having a full table made her feel more at ease.

The main thing is that Tian Xin will go to the new house with his three uncles later and measure the meters of the water outlet and water inlet pipes overnight.This will not delay Liu Laozhu's request for the Bai family to order ceramic pipes tomorrow morning, and he will also have time to draw out the drawings for the strong men in the village to dig. When the digging is almost complete, the pipes will be delivered and connected. Otherwise, it will be hard to dig even if there is a heavy freeze in a few days. Do not move.

I quickly measured my granddaughter’s clothes and sent her away.

This man was helping people under the table to help, but he had other plans in mind.

Do you still have to spend money to make clothes?Sister, why are you so bad at living?

She happened to be going home to rest for a while, and her daughter-in-law was also free.

Before she returns home tomorrow, she will carry all the cotton and cloth back, prepare them and deliver them.

The whole table was thinking: Where can I find my in-laws? No matter how far away they are from me, if they don’t treat their daughter well, no matter how good they are, it will be in vain.How can she be a god-sister? She doesn’t want wages.

The whole table was full of hidden thoughts: "What sizes do those people have? I'll help you check the details so that you don't get inaccurate." He then asked, after finally getting new clothes, don't waste them. What kind of clothes do you want?Let me open my eyes.

When Mrs. Xu was asked, she took out the drawing of the style drawn by her granddaughter, and handed it to the whole table with several people's measurements: "Do you think it can be made like this? My granddaughter drew them all. Take a look at how exciting the drawing is. .”

The whole table wanted to ask who painted this. After finally making a piece of clothing from one piece of material, they were surprised to have to cut the cuffs, collar, and trouser legs to add a few colored pieces. Isn't this a disaster?

When he heard that it was drawn by Tian Xin, he praised: "Otherwise, you have to be someone who can read."

This person who can read is different from what others think. They understand the beauty of a color combination.

Anyway, it couldn't be Tian Xin who was wrong, so she was wrong.

At this time, Mrs. Xu was looking at the table full and thinking in her mind that the mattresses of the three silly boys in her family could not be made. She would wait until the next time the third child came back to deliver the goods to buy and then make them. It would only take a month to sew the mattress. She Together with Qin Niang, you can work quickly by being greedy.

Because she wanted to make a cotton coat for the whole table and the two sons on the table.

This time, excluding the three and a half taels of wages given to the old sister, she earned only eight taels for the table.

Just think of it as earning a few taels less.

Moreover, she had to let the table go back and be busy with family affairs for a month, and then she would have to bring the two boys to help her out of the stall. It would not look good if she didn't wear warm clothes and wore a torn patch to serve food for others.

Therefore, both in public and private matters, Mrs. Xu did not want to be stingy about the cotton and cloth.

They just use cotton and coarse cloth for mattresses to make clothes, and the three ladies will wear the same clothes.

The god-sisters each have their own "little thoughts."

When the Bai family came outside to deliver the letter that the jar and Bai Xiucai helped write, the whole table took advantage of the old lady Xu going out to be polite and went to Yu Qiniang with the list beside the kang to ask for pieces of cloth and cotton. She said she would make it for her, and also looked Yu Qinniang clicked her tongue twice: "You are such a good mother-in-law. Qinniang, please be filial to your mother."

Yu Qinniang didn't know anything about it, and her mother-in-law never had time to elaborate on the things she bought at home. She didn't know that her clothes were included.

She thought that the colorful ones were for making clothes for her niece, and the rest were for sale.

However, it didn't affect her smile.

Since her mother-in-law came back and no longer has to take care of the house, Yu Qinniang has become much more cheerful:
"That's right, it's hard for others to find a good man by using a lantern, but I can find a good mother-in-law by using a lantern. Even if I can let go of my man now, even my man can't let go of my mother-in-law."

So it can be seen that after Mrs. Xu and the whole table were at odds with each other that night, you tried every means to support me, and I tried every means to help you save money. The relationship between these two god-sisters was so good that they almost hugged each other again.

So when the table was full and they left early the next morning, Mrs. Xu stuffed a bag of dried mushrooms and rice into the car, and said, "Bring your daughter-in-law with you next time."

There are many idle men in the village, so how can it be done with only a little wife at home?After all, our girls are so good-looking, and they can't stop some crooked men from jumping into the yard. Men are strong.

What's more, the eldest son of the table family is in that situation. It is more reassuring to bring the son and daughter-in-law together to work and earn money.When the time comes, he will be allowed to live in the new house and treat it as a shopkeeper at night.

The whole table responded: "Then I have to send my grandson to his grandma's house. I'll give him something to raise him until the end of the year. Don't worry, sister."

After sending away the full table and taking the next car to leave, Liu Laozhu and his sales team also set off.

Mrs. Xu moved the cloth, cotton, and needlework used to make shoes for her mother-in-law to the truck.

Liu Laozhu took away some of the boys who had purchased the goods together. They were going to Heixiazi Beicun, Xiajiashugou, Niucaotun, Songwazi, Haojiacun, Fanjiapuzi and Kaoshantun. They happened to be passing by. Qin Niang’s natal family can unload the goods.

Liu Laozhu's mission this time was quite heavy. He had to pay back the money that was due, collect horse grass, go to Bai's house with drawings to fix the pipeline, and sell goods while shouting all kinds of little words.

This time when he went out to sell goods, he was fully prepared. Liu Laozhu followed Mrs. Xu's example of selling condoms and made a board in advance. Various samples were hung on it, and the ones that could not be hung were also painted on. There was no need to open the front of his clothes to expose his chest.

He was afraid that these boys would cause the women in other villages to scream if they opened their clothes.

Otherwise, every age has its own conspicuous bag.

At this time, Liu Laozhu was inexplicably proud of carrying the style board.

Liu Laozhu also asked his old man who came home to visit him last night to help design a few short sentences. One of them he thought was really good. That sentence was: "If you don't buy scissors to pull cloth, wouldn't that become nonsense?"

Listen, this little word is so hard that you can't even make it up without spending a few houses and money to study.

No wonder my old son didn't grow up during the time he left. He was so presumptuous that he was obsessed with it.

The boys who were selling goods together joked after hearing this: "Hurry up, uncle, it doesn't rhyme at all, it's worse than the little words we made up."

"How did you make it up?"

“Just because I don’t have hanging boards doesn’t mean I don’t have them. I have them, I have them all, I have them all!”

Liu Laozhu laughed, looking at the boys in the village as if he were his own boys.

If the village can develop well quickly, it is also due to the hard work of these fearless boys.

He looked back at the village and remembered what Mrs. Xu said:
Not to mention the unknowns, everyone must work together to achieve results.

The car following the departure was the Xu family, Xu Tianxin, Mrs. Xu, and Mr. Xu. They had money to go to Xiangshan to buy dried flowers and search for lard oil everywhere.

I didn't bring Xu Laosan with me this time, because it was not difficult to dig out the blueprints for the water inlet pipes, and the Fourth Uncle and the Seventh Uncle could lead the work.

And Xu Laosi was not as tall as his third brother, so he left Lao San and Dali to shave their heads at home.

Mrs. Xu plans to take her fourth son out to see the world.

Also following the Xu family's vehicle were the twenty girls hired by Xu Tianxin.

There are still many people in these families who love their daughters.

Maybe it wasn’t that I didn’t feel sorry for the children before, but it was just that there were so many children that it wasn’t obvious.

Now, the average age of these girls is only about 15 years old. It is the first time that they have to leave home to pick castor seeds ten miles away without their family members. Being a parent suddenly has mixed emotions.

For example, Hong Zao's father felt a little sad when he looked at his daughter's thin and frail back. He remembered that his daughter used to be no more than knee-high, and he felt that he could carry a basket and go out to make money in a blink of an eye.

The next time you look at your daughter's back like this, it may mean that your daughter is getting married and moving away.

Father Hongzao doesn't have back-sightedness. If he had back-sightedness, he would be a little numb after knowing that his daughter often went out and left. She was busier than him every day. He would definitely not waste the extra emotions at the moment.

At this time, a car drove away with the background music of the live broadcast room: "Let's go, you have me and I have everything." Family members also gave likes in this early morning.

It's great that they're on the road again.

But the people in the village didn't feel so good. What about the meeting, the list, and what to do next.

Don't worry.

Just when the villagers were about to leave in despair, Pepper and Liu Jingdong appeared on behalf of Liu Laozhu.

Wang Yusheng supported his fourth uncle and read out the list for the illiterate fourth uncle.

There was also the Xu family, the big employer. Yu Qiniang and Xu Laoer stood on the stage. They had no paper in their hands and they memorized the list by rote.

In line with the principle of respecting the elderly and loving the young, the Fourth Uncle first held a meeting and shouted:
From now on, the days of fishing together in Erdaohe Village are almost over.

Why is it half-finished? These adults are just not as good as Tian Xin, a half-grown child. Even the ending is sloppy, and they can't do anything smoothly. The villagers complained softly below.

The Fourth Uncle was so angry that he had to be so angry before he replaced Liu Laozhu again. He yelled twice before getting down to business:
Because every household has the obligation to work for the village collective, on days when fishing is possible, whichever family has its turn to fish will follow the leader of the village committee to fish automatically and consciously.The fish caught will not be returned to each family. It is called the obligation to hand in the fish as before.

As for weekdays, you can fish as much as you like when you have time.However, don’t be like a fool and only catch the ones in front of your house. Walk downstream from the village opposite. During winter fishing, the village will also circle the collective area in advance, and you are not allowed to touch the circled areas.

If you don’t have a boat or a chisel for winter fishing, you can either make it yourself and buy it when you have time, or go to the village to borrow it for copper coins and charge rent for each day you borrow it.

"What about the fish we caught?"

"Didn't the collection start yesterday? As long as your fish is alive and weighing enough, sell it all to the Xu family, and they will give you fish money on the spot if they keep it."

Otherwise, it has to be the Xu family. The Xu family should speak quickly.

Don't worry, Pepper signaled Liu Jingdong to read the list. This was to dig pipes for her family and the Xu family's bathhouse business. They also paid wages and needed to hire a lot of strong young men.

There was just an episode when Liu Jingdong was reading his name.

"King Huo Hua Hua."

Below, Wang Huohua looks around at everyone, who is this person calling?Later, I shouted several times before I finally realized: "Dong, my uncle's name is Wang Daye (ye)."

The villagers finally arrived at the Xu family, and today was destined to be a day for the women to straighten their backs.

Yu Qinniang didn't hesitate and just silently memorized the members of each working group, and had agreed in advance that those whose names were read would be called out.

"Aunt Cai Baozi?"

"Arrived!" Let me introduce you again, Cai Baozi is the one-eared lady.

Isn't that right? When her name was read out first, she straightened her back and stood out.

That voice scared her old man to look sideways.

Today, even Xu Laoer looked at Qin Niang differently.Xu Laoer thought to himself: That's great. After leading most of the women in the village to leave, he told the remaining women to go home and pickle pickles. The pickled vegetables might be eaten later, but his wife didn't even look at him. Just take people home to work.

Just wait for him, he hasn't read the list yet.

Xu Laoer was not in the mood to take care of the situation, so he directly asked people from ten villages who had some basic carpentry skills to help Guan Ertu build cabinets.He really couldn't do it anymore, so his mother told him not to earn Uncle Guan's salary, but to let the people in the village earn it, and he could just guide him from the side.

On the second day, Xu Tianxin left Xiangshan with two carts of dried flowers and a few fresh flowers.

I don’t know what the name of that white scholar is, but his courtesy name is Yihai.His classmate from Xiangshan was very polite and said: "I met this old girl through Yihai. I didn't expect to buy so much. Okay, old girl, we've known each other from now on. If you need anything, ask someone to send it to me." I’ll send it to you.”

Xu Tianxin returned to the town and hesitated for a while, and asked someone to send a letter to Jia Lai of the Zhenbei General Mansion.

She didn't know if Grandpa Jia Lai would receive the letter, so she mentioned that she had started making saponins and would do her best to deliver the goods as soon as possible.

There is also an unkind request, which I should keep silent about if I feel too embarrassed to say it.But when the third uncle comes back from selling goods, it may be too late to transport the horse dung back. The family is waiting for the horse dung to coat the walls and build a bathhouse...
