Chapter 75 Everyone gathers firewood and the flames are high!
Mr. Tai simply put the matter aside, after all, the family is too busy.

It is said that everyone gathers firewood and the flames are high. Since the construction of the new yard started, not only people from the Tai family have come to report every day, but they have also run back and forth without the strength of their arms.Even in Zhangjiacun in front and Liujiacun in the back, there are also acquaintances who come to help, such as Zhang Tieniu.

Putting aside the fact that Tai Jicang married into Zhang Dashuan's family, Zhang Tieniu's family and Tai's family have always gotten along well.

This time, Zhang Tieniu also listened to his father's instructions, not only came over, but also brought a dozen wicker baskets, all of which were made by Zhang himself.

Mr. Tai was naturally happy and invited Mr. Zhang to come over for a drink on the day of the funeral.

Even if this is the case for outsiders, the old and young in Taijia Village are not far behind.

The old people are not in good health and can't exert their strength, so they take over the work of helping to take care of the materials at night.

As they got older and didn't get much sleep, they divided into two teams and took turns wandering around the village, just in case someone got greedy and came to steal a piece of wood or a piece of brick.

The young men are not idle either. If one person cannot carry wood or bricks, then two people, or even three or four people, will work together. They are often so tired that their faces turn red and their necks become thick.

Mr. Tai saw this and consulted with his eldest daughter-in-law.

"Boss, daughter-in-law, let's cook more meals at noon in the future. They are all working for our family, so it's not good to let them go home on an empty stomach."

Yang Lihua also knew this truth, but the food sent by Zheng's family seemed to be a lot, and it was consumed faster when eaten.

And the white rice and fine noodles in it can't be put directly on the dining table, after all, it's too expensive and uneconomical.

She thought for a while and said, "Dad, why don't you let me go to the city again and exchange the white rice and fine noodles sent by the Zheng family for sorghum rice?"

That's a good idea, the old man couldn't help but nodded, but he still ordered, "Leave some white rice and fine noodles, we can eat anything, we can't lose money."

"Okay, dad, don't worry, I'll remember it." Yang Lihua also couldn't bear to let her daughter be wronged, so she readily agreed.

Soon, Tai Jiye was found.

He was also very happy to hear that he was going to the city.

After all, all the work in the family requires hard work, and he considers himself a noble man who uses his brains. He doesn't even bother to do it, and he can't do it.

It's best to go to the city, where you can take a stroll around after exchanging food.

It just so happened that Tai Yonglu and Tai Yongyue came in from the outside with their younger sister on their shoulders, arguing that they must follow.

Tai Yonglu and Tai Yongyue wanted to learn more about their third uncle, while Zhuzhu was greedy and wanted to eat sweet and sour candied haws.

Mr. Tai was afraid of losing his granddaughter again, and he didn't agree with it in his heart.

But he couldn't stop his granddaughter from acting like a baby, the soft little girl with her mouth puckered and her big eyes filled with tears, no one could hold her back.

Not to mention going to the city, you must pick up the stars and the moon!
Therefore, Tai Yong'an was also called back, took up his post, and became the full-time guard of his sister.

Tai Yongning sat on the kang, smiling as he watched his younger brothers and sisters laughing and preparing to go out.

Occasionally, there was a flash of loneliness in his eyes, which made his fair face look even more frail.

The old man looked over and couldn't help but feel a little pain in his heart, so he advised, "Yongning, there's nothing else going on at home, why don't you go to the city together.

"Your eldest brother is careless and your two younger brothers are naughty. I'm not worried about leaving Zhuzhu to them. If you go along, you can take more care of Zhuzhu."

"Also, haven't you had a chance to spend the pocket money I gave you before? Go shopping this time, and buy back what you like! If you don't have enough money, grandpa will give it to you again!"

Tai Yongning's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he subconsciously touched his injured leg, still hesitant.

But Tai Yong'an, Tai Yonglu, and Tai Yongyue had already cheered, and he got off the ground to put on his shoes when he was in a hurry.

"Come on, let's go shopping!"

"Second brother, let's go, let's go! Stop squatting at home, the city is bustling, I'll take you to see the fire-breathing sideshow!"

“Second brother, I know which company’s paper is good and it’s not expensive!”

The three brothers tossed Tai Yongning off the kang while talking. When Tai Yongning came back to his senses, he had already been hated and sat on the cart, holding the smiling sister Naituanzi in his arms.

The cart came to deliver bricks and tiles to the house, and Tai Jiye sat on the shaft talking to the driver, and slipped a double-sided cornbread, and the driver was so happy that he almost threw his whip away.

Tai Yongan carried a deep basket on his back, which was filled with hay. Firstly, he prepared it for his sister to rest when she was tired. Secondly, he also hid a sharp hatchet for self-defense in case something happened.

Tai Yonglu and Tai Yongyue sat with their second brother and younger sister, one on the left and one on the right, chatting about everything they saw along the way.

The smile on Tai Yongning's face never stopped, and he occasionally wrapped himself in a jacket and hugged his sister more and more.

Zhuzhu smelled the warm scent of her brother's arms, and she felt like her mother, so she couldn't help but yawn.

While staggering, the fat girl fell asleep again as expected.

Her small red mouth was half open, she didn't know what she was dreaming of, and occasionally she would babble a few times.

The chubby face was like a ripe peach, causing Tai Yongning to lower his head and kiss her gently.

Tai Yonglu and Tai Yongyue were so greedy that they wanted to kiss each other, but they were afraid of waking up their sister...

Suddenly the carriage arrived at the city gate, everyone got out of the carriage, thanked the driver and entered the city.

The weather is getting better and better. Although it is not very warm, it is much more comfortable than winter.

There had been a lot of coming and going a while ago, and the soldiers at the gate of Tai Jiye's city were all familiar with each other. They chatted and laughed, and even the city tax was waived, so the family arrived at the shopping street.

Tai Jiye was going to discuss business with a familiar grain shop, but he was worried about letting his nephews go shopping by themselves.

At this moment, a small green cloth carriage rushed to the side and stopped unexpectedly.

Steward Zheng shouted in surprise, "Oh, Mr. Tai, why did you meet me here?"

Tai Jiye and others looked over and were also happy.

Before he could say anything, the carriage door was pushed open, and young Master Zheng, who was fair and elegant, jumped out.

Zhuzhu happily danced in her elder brother's arms, shouting in a childish voice, "Little brother, little brother!"

Young Master Zheng hugged her, smiling brightly.

"Zhuzhu, do you like the good things I gave you? Also, have you eaten the buns yet?"

Zhuzhu nodded her little head vigorously, hugging Young Master Zheng and not letting go, "Hello, little brother, I didn't lie to Zhuzhu! Zhuzhu ate a lot of bags!"

Before, when the two of them were locked in the cellar, they were cold and hungry. In order to coax the milk dumplings, Young Master Zheng kept promising that as long as they went out, he would give Zhuzhu something delicious and take her somewhere to play.

Originally thought that children don't remember things, but how could Zhu Zhu be smart and remember clearly!

Young Master Zheng blushed with a smile, secretly glad that he didn't lose his faith in front of the little girl.

He talked to Tai Yongan and Tai Yongning again, with a shy, gentle and polite expression.

Tai Yong'an and the others saw that Young Master Zheng liked his sister very much, and he was the one who took care of her when she was in trouble, so the brothers were very enthusiastic and thanked them decently.

Steward Zheng was very excited when he saw it.
