Sweet and warm little peasant woman

Chapter 43 New Materials

No, she must educate Zhang Qinghua when she goes back. Living like this is not acceptable. Living in a village, the most important thing is fame and popularity. Miserable.

Of course, if you have the ability and are not afraid of the people in the village, that's another matter.

……

With the help of so many people, in one day, all the windows and doors of Feng Yuchen's house were installed, and the bricks on the floor of the house were also laid.The scattered water around the house is also paved

Even the bricks in the yard were cleaned up, all the potholes were filled up, and a road was paved from the door of the house to the gate, so that it would not be muddy even in rainy and cloudy days.

Now I am waiting to air the house, buy furniture, and the couple live in it.

At noon and night this day, Feng Yuchen's family treated guests. After all, they couldn't let others work for nothing. Everyone ate and drank, and they were very happy.

The little girl happily yelled and danced with the candy Tong Xiaowu gave her, and Aunt Fulin also had a smile on her face. They will start building the courtyard wall tomorrow, and she should be busy by then.

After Tong Xiaowu knew about this, she agreed to leave a door in the middle wall so that the two families could communicate.

"Sister-in-law, do you manage the workers' meals? I can help you with the cooking."

"No, no, no, this half month has exhausted you. You should take a good rest. Besides, don't you have to go to the town? My courtyard wall will be finished in two days, and only a bricklayer can do it. There are not so many people. I Just one person."

Mrs. Fulin looked at her distressedly. She had lost a lot of weight during this time.

"Can you really do it alone?"

"Yes, didn't you listen to what Zhao Hongzhu said? Seven people finished the work in two days." Mrs. Fulin pointed to the person who was speaking at the wine table.

Now Zhao Hongzhu is discussing with Brother Fulin about building the courtyard wall.

"Well, if there's anything wrong, just tell me and I'll help..." Tong Xiaowu spoke again.

"Okay, I'll call you if something happens..."

Early the next morning, Tong Xiaowu and Feng Yuchen, who hadn't been to the town for two or three days, got up early. One hundred dolls were ready, and they went to deliver the goods.

On the way, Tong Xiaowu kept secretly looking at Feng Yuchen.

"what happened?"

He looked back at her. When she had this expression, she was thinking carefully.

She leaned closer to him, and whispered in his ear: "I want to go to the county seat alone and disguise myself as a man."

The corners of Feng Yuchen's eyes twitched, she was afraid that Second Brother Liu would hear him laughing at her, and she also knew that doing so was against common sense.

Rural women, no, it should be said that women in this world don't do this. Generally, they have to be accompanied by men when they go to the streets.

Even if she wasn't accompanied by a man, she still had to be accompanied by her family. How could there be someone like her who wanted to go to the county town by herself and had to disguise herself as a woman?If the men in the village heard this, they would have to say that she was not a woman.

"Is it okay?" She asked quietly in his ear, and the air she exhaled wrapped around his neck, causing waves of numbness.

He reached out and grabbed her to prevent her from approaching, not because he didn't want her to approach, but because the second brother Liu in front would see it, and he couldn't stand it.

"Do you have enough money?" He asked the most realistic question.

If you sell these dolls today, you will only get five taels of silver. Tomorrow, Mrs. Fulin's natal brother will bring the kapok collected from their village. At least five hundred catties will be needed, and you will need one tael of silver, as well as yesterday's meal money. It cost another one or two more than the wages for making dolls that were settled last night.

Inside and outside, counting the money for the unsold dolls, she only has six taels of silver now.

"That's enough. I asked Second Brother Liu. A carriage ride from Ningyue Town to the county town costs [-] Wen per person. [-] Wen back and forth is enough for me. It's just that it takes a long time. It takes about three or four days to go back and forth... ..."

He grabbed her fingers suddenly, and his eyes turned from hot to cold: "What about me?"

"I'm not saying I'm alone..."

Before Tong Xiaowu could finish speaking, his brows were tightly knit together, and his eyes on her became sharper.

"Okay, two people can do it, that's enough money..." Disarmed and surrendered, it's good to take him with you, so the two of you can have a support.

Because I am going to the county seat tomorrow, after delivering the goods today, Tong Xiaowu and Feng Yuchen will prepare for tomorrow. She wants to dress up as a man, so naturally she must have men's clothes. Looking at the clothes on them, she feels that she has failed terribly .

Sure enough, after the house was built, looking back, the two of them were like two rats. I don't know how she dealt with the boss in the town during this period of time.

When he came to the cloth village, Tong Xiaowu looked at the men's clothes hanging inside, hesitant, Feng Yuchen stepped forward and picked out a beige long gown, "How about this one?"

She must look good in this color!

Tong Xiaowu shook her head, "It's going to be three or four days. I can wear underwear at home. The outer one can't be too white or it will get dirty. I'll just choose the black one!"

The waiter in the shop took off the clothes, and Tong Xiaowu compared them, which was quite appropriate.

After buying the clothes, the two wandered around the cloth shop again to learn about the color, quality and price of all the cloth.

I heard that the cloth weaving workshops in the county towns are the cheapest. The cloth shops in these towns all buy their cloths in the county towns. After understanding the market conditions, we can make a comparison.

Suddenly Tong Xiaowu saw a ball of white-gray velvet in the corner, which seemed to be leftovers cut from wool felt on one side of the scroll.

Wool felt?Tong Xiaowu's mind brightened, and she squatted down on the ground to pick up the leftovers and carefully identified it. It really was the wool felt she had played with, but she didn't expect that it was actually torn from the wool felt.

"The shopkeeper? How much is this scrap?" Tong Xiaowu asked while holding a ball.

The owner of the cloth shop looked up and said, "This is pure wool, which can be recycled, and it costs three hundred yuan a catty."

"So expensive? A piece of scrap is so expensive, what about the sheets of felt?" Tong Xiaowu reached out and touched the felt on one side, rich people would use this to make mattresses.

Richer people will also use wool carpets to pave the floor.

"Measure according to the size and weigh by catty, one or two per catty!"

The store owner opened his mouth while thinking about his abacus.

Hearing this price, Tong Xiaowu couldn't help but click her tongue. The ten houses she built in her home were worth tens of catties of wool felt from a rich family.

"Then I want a little bit of this, how much is it?" It's not that Tong Xiaowu is fussy, the main reason is that he has no money, so he has to calculate it.

She took a ball of fluffy felt scraps and handed it to the shopkeeper, who countered and weighed it on the scale, "Twenty-two, sixty Wen!"

This price is enough to buy two meters of medium-quality cloth. Even though she knew it was expensive, Tong Xiaowu still had to buy it, because there was only one cloth shop in Ningyue Town, and she had no choice.
