Chapter Seventy-Eight: Settling In

Wang Yuqiao and Du Yuhan sorted out the things for making clothes and quilts.

Wang Yuqiao took out a stack of fur and said, "Yuhan, you taught your father how to set rabbits for them, but you helped our family a lot." Not to mention that we can eat meat at home from time to time, our family has also saved a lot of rabbit skins. I brought all the skins, didn't you say that it was cold in winter here, so should I make this rabbit skin into a leather jacket?"

Du Yuhan nodded and said, "Of course you can." You can make leather jackets and leather mattresses. There are more mountains here, and there are more animals in the mountains, so you can also go to the mountains to set rabbits.

But there are many ferocious beasts in the mountains here, so you must be careful not to go deep into the mountains. It is mostly active on the outskirts of the mountains. ”

Du Lianqiao said: "I looked, the mountains here are called mountains, and the mountains over there are at best dirt bags." There are many naturally ferocious animals in the deep mountains and old forests.

Before the Du family moved to Xikou Village, their hometown was southern, and the mountains there were also high and dangerous. There are also man-eating beasts in the mountains, and the big guys don't dare to go into the mountains easily. Dad knows what's at stake, don't worry, Dad won't take any risks. ”

Du Yuhan nodded and said: "Back to your father, you and Uncle Liang should inquire more about the customs here, and you will live here in the future, and you will have a good relationship with the villagers." With Uncle Liang's care, no one should bully our family. Let's live our lives here honestly. ”

Du Lianqiao said: "Yuhan, don't worry, without the burden of the Du family's old house in the future, our family's life will be better and better." ”

Du Yuhan thought that the village would soon implement a large canteen for collective dinner, and said: "Dad, the village is about to build a big canteen." Everyone went to the big cafeteria to eat. The family is no longer allowed to cook, so I didn't buy a big iron pot for the family.

I guess I'll have to turn it in if I buy it. So I bought a clay pot and an aluminum pot, and the amphora iron pot should not be used as much as possible, and it should not be known, and it should be used secretly.

The two stoves in the hall had to be repaired, and there were no big cauldrons, so they were made to sit on small pots. You have to boil water, boil the kang and everything. ”

Du Lianqiao nodded and said, "It's easy to build the pot table, I can do it myself." ”

Wang Yuqiao smiled: "Yuhan, your father, you are skillful." Even if you have all the furniture in our house, your father will beat it. ”

Du Yuhan said in surprise: "Is it, my father still has this craft?"

Wang Yuqiao said: "In my hometown, your father learned this craft from someone before. Later, when the disaster hit the hometown, the whole family moved to Xikou Village, and your father never used this craft since he worked all day long. ”

Du Yuhan said: "There are many mountains and trees here, so the management of wood is relatively relaxed, and it is much easier to get wood. The wood here should be very cheap.

And if Dad can make furniture, he can also use this craft to make money. It's okay if you don't have any money to give things. It's a good craft. ”

Wang Yuqiao heard Du Yuhan say this and said happily: "His father, Yuhan's attention is good, and when you get acquainted with the people here in the future, you can properly penetrate it." You can't do it for nothing. In this way, we can also have an additional input. ”

Du Yuhan was also very happy and said, "Dad, I have seen many furniture styles in big cities, and I will draw them for you when I go back." If people know that you can play the furniture that is popular in the big city, everyone will definitely want to look for you. You can also let them choose their own looks. That's a good way to make a living.

Go back and ask if there is anyone in the village who specializes in furniture, and if not, you can try it. Let's just don't rob other people in the village of their livelihoods. After all, we are outsiders, so it's better to keep a low profile. ”

Du Lianqiao nodded and said, "You're right, we can't be hated." Go back and inquire. ”

At night, Du Lianqiao and his wife slept in the east house with their three sons, and Du Yuhan still slept in the west house alone.

Du Yuhan planned to stay in Laohewan Village for a few more days and help his father and mother settle down before leaving.

After leaving from here, Du Yuhan prepared to go into the mountains once and go to the mountains to pick some herbs.

It would be better if you could encounter some precious herbs, even if they were small seedlings, as long as they were transplanted into the space, there would be a steady stream of herbs to use in the future.

She has to slowly enrich the variety of herbs in the space, these are all valuable resources.

The next day, He Zhendong came to Du's house to say goodbye, and it was impossible for him to always ask for leave in the army. This time, it was his father who asked him to pick up his sister and asked for leave.

He Zhendong really doesn't want to leave his sister, he just met and didn't get along for two days before they were going to separate again, and I don't know when they will meet again next time. But there is no way, who made him a soldier.

Before leaving, He Zhendong instructed: "Little sister, I will often write to my second brother in the future, and I will also write to you, and send it to the address of the school where you stayed." ”

Du Yuhan nodded and said, "I will definitely write to you often." Big brother should be transferred here soon, and you will have a good time to take care of it in the future. Dad said that he would also move here, maybe when I got home, we would be reunited here in the northeast. ”

He Zhendong said happily: "That feeling is good." I'm really lonely here, and it would be nice if we all came here. The mountain is high here, and the emperor is far away, and there are not so many rights and wrongs. Little sister, you should come back as soon as possible. How good it is for us to be together as a family. ”

Du Yuhan nodded and said, "I will come back as soon as possible." ”

Du Yuhan sent away the reluctant second brother home, and followed his adoptive mother to make cotton clothes for the family.

Wang Yuqiao's craftsmanship is good, and Du Yuhan is not bad. The two took the new scissors bought by Du Yuhan and cut a piece of fabric for the whole family to make cotton clothes.

Originally, he had to do it for Du Yuhan, but Du Yuhan said that he already had Wang Yuqiao, so he didn't do it for Du Yuhan.

The two of them made cotton clothes together very quickly, and they made the cotton clothes of the five members of the Du family in one day.

Du Lianqiao also built the earthen stove in the hall.

The three brothers of the Du family were not idle, and cleared all the weeds in the yard. Du Lianqiao also opened several vegetable fields.

Now at this time, I can only grow some radishes and cabbage. In order to have vegetables to eat in winter, it is better to plant them as soon as possible.

There is a water storage canal not far from Du's house, which is brought from the river, and it is quite convenient to carry water to water the vegetable field.

Du Yuhan had already considered planting vegetables and bought all the vegetable seeds.

Du Lianqiao and his two older sons planted the vegetables directly.

Du Yuhan took advantage of the fact that everyone was not paying attention to water some well water in the space in the vegetable bed, which could ensure that the seeds germinated as soon as possible, prolong the growth time of vegetables as much as possible, and also allow the Du family to have vegetables to eat in winter.

The water for drinking in the village must be picked from the only well in the village. The well is not far from Du's house, and it is not difficult to draft water.

The whole family has not been idle for a day, the results are great, and the family is becoming more and more orderly.
