Mountain People

Chapter 12: build a kiln, burn bricks

    "Shuixiu, this is the most comfortable meal I have eaten when I grow up. I have food and vegetables. If only I could eat like this every day."

    Dong Chenghu's eyes were full of contentment, Gu Shuixiu looked at Dong Chenghu like this for some reason, and suddenly felt that he was very reliable, this person might be able to walk with her for a lifetime.

    With such thoughts, Gu Shuixiu began to seriously examine Dong Chenghu.

    Dong Chenghu was a little overwhelmed by her, "Shuixiu, am I wrong?"

    Gu Shuixiu shook her head, stared at Dong Chenghu for a while, and said, "Speaking of which, you should shave the beard on your face. I didn't have tools before, but now I just bought a small knife, enough for you. Now, after I shaved my beard, I was taking a good bath with my pancreas, and when I went out like this, it's no wonder that everyone treats us as beggars today."

    Now that the conditions are met, Gu Shuixiu does not intend to wrong the two of them, and immediately finds out the newly bought cloth, makes some gestures on Dong Chenghu, and says, "Just now, we have bought a lot for the village work plan. You gave me a set of needles and threads, which can be used to make clothes, you stand obediently, I will measure your size, I will catch up with work tonight, and you will be able to put on new clothes tomorrow."

    Dong Chenghu's heart was bubbling with beauty, he stood obediently and let Gu Shuixiu toss, and sighed again in his heart, having a daughter-in-law is different!

    That night, Gu Shuixiu worked overtime under the candle, and made Dong Chenghu a coat of coarse cloth, a linen cloth, and a fine cotton cloth.

    Dong Chenghu went to the outside, hoping to get more prey and give Gu Shuixiu a better life.

    As expected, Gu Shuixiu slept the next day until the third day of the sun and woke up. The new quilt and bedding were so comfortable, she really didn't want to get up, and finally struggled out of the cave to find that the sun was shining in the sky, Dong Chenghu Is putting a basket in the yard.

    Seeing Gu Shuixiu getting up, she grinned, and the movements of her hands were not delayed at all.

    "You just got up and washed your face, I just cooked some broken rice porridge, it's not as delicious as yours, first put a belly, I'll tie up these baskets and tie them on top Put on the vines and use these baskets to transport things later."

    Gu Shuixiu nodded, washed her face with mountain spring water, rinsed her mouth, and went to eat when she was completely awake.

    When Gu Shuixiu had eaten, he realized that Dong Chenghu had not shaved!

    She immediately went in and took the knife, and gave Dong Chenghu a sinister smile.

    Dong Chenghu was shocked and jumped back, "Shui...Shuixiu, what are you doing?"

    "Shave!"

    Dong Chenghu "…"

    In the end, at Gu Shuixiu's insistence, Dong Chenghu shaved off all the beards on his face in front of her.

    Gu Shuixiu's eyes are straight, this person is clearly a handsome man! Resolute face, deep facial features, full of masculinity all over. In modern times, such a man can kill a lot of fresh meat in seconds. She was lucky to marry such a handsome man who loves her.

    Gu Shuixiu's heart was bubbling with beauty, her eyes frightened Dong Chenghu swallowed in fear, what happened to Shuixiu today? Why does this look look so intriguing?

    Gu Shuixiu didn't know what Dong Chenghu was thinking at all, so he immediately boiled water for Dong Chenghu, and asked him to freshen up and put on her new clothes.

    Dong Chenghu's face is stunned, it's not even noon yet, he's taking a shower and wearing new clothes, what's going on?

    But seeing Gu Shuixiu so happy, Dong Chenghu went with her.

    When Dong Chenghu finished washing up and put on new clothes, Gu Shuixiu almost couldn't recognize him.

    Circling around Dong Chenghu twice, he sighed with tut tut, and sure enough, people rely on clothes, Buddhas rely on gold clothes, so wearing it like this is immediately different, it looks like the people in the town No difference.

    Dong Chenghu saw Gu Shuixiu still wearing old clothes, and he felt a little uncomfortable, "Shuixiu, should you make two clothes for yourself, I can wear this set for several days, You do it for yourself first, don't hold me close."

    Gu Shuixiu gave him a white look, "Of course I know I have to do it for myself, if I don't say anything else, I brought the happy clothes and two ripped clothes, and the patches are almost invisible. So what is it? I'll make all our clothes in a while. Now that we have something to eat at home, we can take a break.

    By the way, you can go to the beach later to see if the seaweed has dried. If it is dry, it will be shipped back. It just so happens that you have also made a basket, just a few trips. "

    Dong Chenghu hurriedly responded, and when he thought that he could build a house, he grinned unconsciously.

    "Shuixiu, when can we start building the house?"

    Gu Shuixiu's hands stopped, looked up at the weather, and said, "The weather seems to be good these few days, if it rains less in spring, I don't know if it will rain more in summer? If the weather is good, let’s build the kiln first, you will transport the mud first, and get some more seaweed, it’s not enough, if you have any leftovers, you can save them.”

    "Hey!" Dong Chenghu lifted two big baskets, walked with great power, and disappeared in front of Gu Shuixiu's eyes after a while.

    Gu Shuixiu smiled and continued to fiddle with the needle and thread in her hand.

    I didn't stop for an afternoon, and finally made myself two coats, two coats of sackcloth and two coats of linen for work. I made another complete set of clothes for Dong Chenghu, but the color was changed.

    During the period, Dong Chenghu also transported all the seaweed back to the yard, and then went to the beach to pick a lot of seaweed to dry. .

    In the early morning of the second day, Gu Shuixiu asked Dong Chenghu to make a simple dustpan and sifted the soil twice. The two of them used a big broken pot to boil water to boil the seaweed. They didn’t feel bad at all. The good seaweed water has become a little sticky, and it is immediately poured into the mound and mud before it cools down.

    Gu Shuixiu directed and Dong Chenghu started the kiln. The two worked hard for a day to build the kiln. The built kiln needs to be dried for two days, and then burned with a high fire for a day before it can be used.

    The two of them have not been idle for the past three days. Dong Chenghu made a dozen brick models, still using the same mud and seaweed together. Gu Shuixiu helped to make the model of the reconciled mud. Dry in the shape of a brick.

    The husband and wife match very well. For three days, the house is full of drying bricks.

      A large pile of bricks, which were originally brown-black, turned blue-gray from the kiln. It is completely different from the bricks burned outside, but the hardness is much higher.
