My whole family traveled across time with an encyclopedia

Chapter 162 Gratitude
"Oh, have you eaten?" Lai's voice sounded outside the door.

The Li family and Mrs. Lai met last night, and Mother Li put down the bowls and chopsticks, ready to go out to meet people.

Because there were no tables or chairs, they ate rice on their hands, and the children squatted next to the wooden bed and ate their bowls on the bed.

"Come on, here are the tables and chairs made by my son. I think you don't have much furniture. These are for you."

Behind Mrs. Lai was her youngest son, carrying a few stools and a table on his hands and shoulders.

Li Dajiang quickly put down the table and chopsticks and stood up, helping to unload the tables and chairs from the opponent's shoulders.

"Why is this so embarrassing? No need, we can just squat down and eat."

Mrs. Lai enthusiastically said: "There is nothing to be embarrassed about. From now on, we will be our own people. Of course we have to help each other. If you need anything in the future, just come to me!"

Mother Li still doesn't understand the temperament of these people for the time being, but she just thinks that Lai Lai looks very kind, she took the other person's hand and thanked: "Then I will accept it with a cheeky face, but don't worry, our family will not It’s for nothing, when we earn work points, we will transfer the work points to you.”

Mrs. Lai was waiting for the other party's words, but she didn't care about her face, "Oh, isn't it just a few stools and a table? It's only two days. Anyway, my youngest son just graduated from the teacher. I have practiced, what work points do I need?"

Mother Li worked hard for two days in a day to produce these things, and she was even more unwilling to take them for nothing. "We must give work points, and we can't let you do it for nothing. Otherwise, how can our family live in peace?"

In the end, Mrs. Lai took a small handful of wild vegetables and left with a sad face, but she was happy in her heart.

Her son had just graduated from a teacher, and his carpentry work was rough. If other people wanted to make tables, chairs or cabinets, they usually turned to Carpenter Sun. If Carpenter Sun was really too busy, they would rather wait.Unless it's urgent, I won't look for these fresh graduates.

This set of desks was the first one Mrs. Lai sold.

"Mother, are you too capable? How do you know they are willing to pay for it?" Mrs. Lai's youngest son looked at his mother with admiration.

He was really worried that the Li family would follow his mother's lead and accept it.It really took him two days and two nights to finish those stools and tables.

How could he be willing to send it away for nothing?
Moreover, he usually earns work points and helps with some tasks assigned by Master Sun. This is all time he squeezed out of his busy schedule.

When Mrs. Lai heard what her youngest son said, she raised her chin and looked smug, "Your mother, I can see people right. This family is not greedy for cheap, and they must be embarrassed to accept our things for nothing. When the time comes, not only If you want to give us work points, maybe you have to mention something to thank us, that is, they didn’t have anything when they came here, so they only gave us a small handful of wild vegetables, you can wait for it in a few days.”

Mrs. Lai guessed right. The Li family looked at the table and chairs. They were solid, but they were a little rough polished, and they had to wrap the rough edges by themselves.

But they are very grateful to the other party for thinking of them. When they come to this unfamiliar place, except for their parents-in-law and mother-in-law’s family, everyone else is a stranger to them. They cherish the kindness of these strangers to them. .

Li's father was lying on the bed, "When our family receives the work points, it will be returned to others, and then we can see if we can mention anything else."

Mother Li nodded, "Don't worry, old man."

Li Dajiang quickly finished the remaining porridge, "Father, don't worry about it, we are all going to work today, and we should be able to earn a lot of work points a day."

"At that time, let's see if we can exchange a rabbit for someone to send over." He only found out after chatting with a few people on the construction site today that they raised their own rabbits here. When the rabbit grows up, there will be a lot of meat to eat.

"By the way, the house we live in is rented, and it costs [-] centimeters a month. Other people's houses were built by them. At that time, everyone repaired them together, so we don't need to spend money and work points to buy them." We are latecomers and can only rent, but we can save more work points, and then we can buy this house with work points."

The brothers settled accounts clearly, and Ning Changrong told these people all the things that should be explained in advance. There is no rule without rules. No matter who comes here, if they want to live in peace and stability, they must abide by the rules.

"That's how it should be. We can't be greedy for cheap, so how many work points do we get for buying a house?"

Li's mother looked at this house made of stones, and she was very sad. How long would they have to work to afford such a good house?

"Our house is not small, and it takes more than [-] work points to afford it."

"So cheap?!" Mother Li's eyes sparkled, her first reaction was not expensive, but cheap!

One of her sons can earn at least [-] centimeters a day, and as much as thirteen or forty-five centimeters.

Calculated at the least, isn't that more than 300 work points a year?
In other words, as long as the three sons work for a year, they can buy this big stone house! ?

Li Dajiang said the answer he heard, "This house is made of cement invented by Xixi. It is not that difficult to repair, so it is sold to us cheaply."

"That's great. As long as we work hard, we can buy the house in half a year." She has six sons!
"Bang bang bang! bang bang bang!"

"Oh, let's stop chatting, it's time to go to work, we have to go to work quickly!"

Before I knew it, noon passed.

Several people picked up the tools in their hands and walked towards the place where they were working. Even the little ones in the family got up from the bed, rubbed their eyes and rushed to work.

……

On the other side, Ma Honglin, who was delayed by the lack of food, marched in a hurry, and returned to Taizhou Prefecture in only one and a half days.

Originally, he planned to march normally, but when they passed by Taixi County, they found that something was wrong. There was always a smell of meat.

After Ma Honglin smelled it, his face changed drastically. He knew what the smell of meat represented.

After returning to Taizhou Mansion, he immediately came to the General's Mansion.

"General, the mission is complete." After speaking, he handed over the hot pepper that Wang Xiujuan had brought, and relayed what Wang Xiujuan had said.

Originally, he wanted to taste it on the road, but because of the rush of the march, he even ate the dry food on the horse, so where would he have time to eat some chili sauce?

But fortunately, the other party made a lot of cakes for them, otherwise he would really have to delay some time to come back, and it would take time to get off the horse and cook.

Chang Yuan took the chili sauce, smelled it closely, and found that it was a bit pungent, and coughed a few times after removing the chili sauce.

"General, are you alright?" Wang Hanting looked worried, holding a knife in his hand, and questioned Ma Honglin suspiciously, as if wondering if the other party had poisoned him.

"Hanting." Chang Yuan returned to normal after coughing a few times, watching Wang Hanting's movements, and stopped him.

Ma Honglin looked aggrieved, and at the same time looked at Chang Yuan worriedly.

"I'm fine. The chili is as pungent as Wen Cheng said."

Seeing Chang Yuan recovered, Wang Hanting pressed the handle of the knife and sat back. Ma Honglin also breathed a sigh of relief. If something happened to the general, the other brothers in the army would definitely not let him go. He's innocent, but he brought things back.
