Chapter 122 Washing
Jiang Quhan hurriedly replied: "Hey, I'll boil the water right now."

Mrs. Zhang took out an enamel washbasin from the room, handed it to Jiang Quhan, and said, "It's such a hot day, just boil any hot water, just rinse it with cold water."

"Mom, Mengmeng is too young, let's boil some hot water, don't get sick after taking a bath."

Mrs. Zhang complained: "Why haven't I seen you be so particular about it before?" After speaking, she went to the woodshed to find things by herself.

Jiang Quhan was a little guilty, but fortunately Mrs. Zhang didn't continue to ask, otherwise she didn't know how to reply.

When Jiang Quhan looked at this enamel washbasin, it flashed in his mind that all four members of the family used this basin to wash their faces, buttocks and feet.

But tonight, I can only use it first. Tomorrow, she has to go to the town to have a look. She must go shopping. There are too few things in this family, which is worse than the ancient family she traveled through before.

She still has a lot of money with her now, so it's better not to live too wronged with this condition.

Jiang Quhan boiled several earthen pots of hot water and scrubbed Zhang Jianjun and Zhang Meng well. There was no towel, and only pieces of old clothes were found in the wooden box in the room.

After washing the two children and going to bed, Jiang Quhan boiled two crock pots of hot water and scrubbed them himself. After everything was tidied up and the Wang Po's room was dimly lit, he knocked on the door and went in.

Mrs. Wang was sitting at the table, holding the soles of her shoes by the light of the kerosene lamp.She has a top finger on her hand, and her movements are accurate and fast with the needle and thread. It can be seen that she is used to this kind of work.

Jiang Quhan took a look at Mrs. Wang's room based on this light. There were more things than her room. There was a bed, a large elevated wooden box, a wooden table, two long benches, and two An urn half the height of a person.

There is a sewing basket on the table, and there are scissors beside it.

This room has the largest space, but it is a little crowded because there are a lot of things. Jiang Quhan didn't look at it carefully, but asked Mrs. Wang: "Mother, are you still sleeping?"

Mrs. Wang raised her head and glanced at Jiang Quhan, then lowered her head and continued with her work, and said, "I only need two stitches now, the baby's feet are growing fast, and the shoes on Jianjun's feet are already a little small, I put them on." The soles of these shoes are good, you make him a new pair of shoes."

Jiang Quhan took a closer look. It was a pair of cloth soles. Jiang Quhan had never seen this one before. It was made of many rags, and many stitches were densely nailed with needles and threads, arranged very closely. It was neat and tidy, and the thread used was something that Jiang Quhan had never seen before.

Jiang Quhan knew from Li Yulan's memory that this was a kind of hemp thread, a thread made of fibers extracted from a plant called hemp, all made by himself.

Jiang Quhan is quite interested in this kind of handmade things, but now is not the time to do this, she responded, and then said: "Okay, mother, I want to send Jianjun to school tomorrow, and I also want to ask for leave to go to town. last time."

Mrs. Wang sewed the last stitch on the sole of the shoe, cut off the thread with scissors, and said, "Alright, it's been half a month since I left Qingshan, so you can go to the post office to see if there is any letter in the mail."

Not to mention, Jiang Quhan can't even think of Zhang Qingshan, and it feels a little strange that he suddenly has a husband.She paused, and then said, "Okay, is there anything you want to buy, mother? I'll bring it back tomorrow."

Mrs. Wang thought for a while and said: "Do you still have sugar tickets? If you have any, bring some brown sugar back tomorrow, and today I will return the brown sugar I borrowed from Heart's house. Pull a few feet of cloth and come back, I think it's cute." The clothes are going to be redone, and I can see that a lot of her arms are exposed in the changed set. I don’t need anything else, and now I eat in the big cafeteria, and I don’t have anything to buy.”

"Okay, I'll go and boil some hot water for you, mother, you should also wash and go to bed early."

Mrs. Wang responded, and then reminded: "Remember to ask for a leave from the squad leader, don't save too much, just spend what you spend."
