Two days after the roof was repaired, He Jianguo drove a carriage borrowed from the production team to run all over the waste collection stations in the city and surrounding counties, and collected a batch of old furniture from the Ming and Qing dynasties at the price of a penny and a catty.

According to the precious wood brought back by He Jianguo, Qi Shufang can be sure that he is indeed very good at appraising antiques.

He Jianguo dismantled the wood in the warehouse on the spot and brought it out to the scale, and then took it home and picked and knocked and beaten, assembled a camphor wood box and two sandalwood boxes, changed the original lock into a nondescript door nose, hung up the newly bought iron general, and instantly fell several grades, and then nailed a few pieces of thin wood to the outside of the box, like patching clothes, absolutely no one doubted that this was the old-fashioned furniture of a large family.

There is a dark compartment inside the red sandalwood box, which is used to hide silk and satin yarn and books, calligraphy and paintings, and the space outside the dark compartment holds clothes.

He Jianguo originally planned to hide the books in the beams, but he was afraid that when the rain was heavy, the books would get damp, and the rats in the house would crawl into the beams and gnaw on the books. At this moment, he suddenly remembered that the teacher had said that the cabinets and beds of large families had extremely elaborate mechanisms and hidden grids, so he went to collect old furniture and checked it carefully, and there were indeed hidden compartments.

The dark compartment in the red sandalwood box has a mechanism control zhì, which can be flipped.

"This painting is Zhang Daqian's authentic work. Looking at the two paintings that Qi Shufang brought out from the scrap yard, He Jianguo told her, "This one is not Zheng Banqiao's authentic handiwork, it is copied by later generations, and it is similar in shape but not in god." ”

Ha, Zhang Daqian is a celebrity, and his paintings are very valuable.

Qi Shufang was complacent and proud, it seemed that she had a good eye, one of the two paintings was genuine, half the chance!

It was clearly a blind cat that hit a dead mouse, and most of the calligraphy and paintings and other collections confiscated by copying large families were genuine, He Jianguo muttered in his heart, he was embarrassed to hit her, of course, he also thought of the fact that he was often hit!

"Do you understand so well, the few books and calligraphy and paintings you brought out are genuine?" Qi Shufang looked at the things He Jianguo brought back when he bought furniture, wire-bound books, calligraphy and paintings, porcelain, and a bronze mirror, there were more than a dozen pieces in total. Tsk, He Jianguo is very bold, she dares to do things that others dare not do, and she doesn't dare to put it into action.

"Some can be sure to be true, and some I can't be sure of, so I can take them out and ask the teacher. He Jianguo quickly put the things in place, "The teacher used to like these things, and if he sees them in the future, he will definitely be happy." I told you before that the home made of precious wood has a special aroma, and the things placed in it are not easy to be eaten by insects, and the food at home will be placed in the camphor wood box in the future. Come, help me lift the bed away, dig a deep pit, and bury the wood that is not assembled for the time being. ”

It is easy to be found under the bed and is not safe.

When it is discovered, someone must ask about the origin of these woods, and people are curious, and it will be difficult to explain when the time comes.

Qi Shufang kept it in mind and said, "You are not afraid that someone will come to our house to dig three feet into the ground." ”

"Dig three feet into the ground?" He Jianguo laughed, "Our family has been a poor peasant for several lifetimes, and it is not the landlord who hides gold and silver in the underground wall, what is it worth digging three feet into the ground? Besides, when they dig up and see a pile of wood, they may not recognize it." Those who raided the house went to other people's houses to smash, burn and loot, but I didn't hear of anyone who removed the big red sandalwood bed and red sandalwood cabinet from others, but pried away the jewels and gems inlaid on it, so it can be seen that they only recognize gold, silver and jewelry. ”

Qi Shufang disagreed, "That's not necessarily. I've heard that in the past few years, many homes have been smashed beyond recognition, and the silk and satin, books, calligraphy, paintings, and furniture have been burned to the ground, and maybe some bad people will dig up these pieces of wood and burn them!"

"Don't worry. Our house has been built for a few years, and when the foundation was laid, many people were watching, and the foundation was very deep, and not a penny of things were dug out, and no one would come to our house to dig three feet into the ground. "Thought he hadn't thought of that?

This is the case, Qi Shufang stepped forward to move the bed away with him, and dug a big and deep pit with a shovel.

The timber was neatly placed in the pit, filled with a foot-thick layer of earth, and the bronze mirror and most of the porcelain were put in it, and the earth continued to be filled until it was three inches above the floor of the house, and slowly stepped on it tightly, gradually leveled out, sprinkled with a layer of dry earth, and moved the bed back to its place. The remaining soil that had nowhere to fill was transported out at night and piled up in the corner of the courtyard wall, mixed with the soil left over from the roof repair.

Why is the taste of Baoshan so beautiful?

Qi Shufang tried hard to recall the historical books and miscellaneous records she had read, and in addition to antiques, there were other things that could sit and wait for appreciation.

When she was trying to remember how to get rich, He Jianguo then repaired the fence wall, repaired the chicken pen, built the duck pen, and used the wicker cut by her father to weave the chicken coop, handbasket, wicker basket, and dung basket for the family, and went to tidy up the land for herself.

Qi Shufang was tired of eating meat oil and wanted to eat vegetarian oil.

At present, vegetable oil is divided into soybean oil, peanut oil, cottonseed oil, rapeseed oil, sunflower oil and sesame oil, etc., according to the crops of the production team to decide what kind of oil is sent at the end of the year, if a lot of soybeans are harvested this year, then soybean oil is sent at the end of the year, peanuts are harvested on peanut oil, cotton was planted last year, cottonseed oil was issued, according to the head, one person four taels.

When Qi Shufang first crossed over, the half jar of cottonseed oil at home was a year's weight, and she ate it all in half a month, and after eating it, she remembered that crude cottonseed oil was harmful to men and not beneficial.

However, she is not worried about the bodies of all the men in the He Lou Brigade at all, every household does not touch oil for more than 200 days a year, and it is estimated that stir-frying vegetables with oil is to drop a few drops of oil to wipe the bottom of the pot, and the impact is minimal.

Originally, she wanted to plant soybeans for a while, squeeze soybean oil, and feed soybean cakes to chickens and ducks, but He Jianguo told her that the soybean harvest was extremely low, and it was God's mercy to harvest fifty or sixty catties of soybeans per acre, and even twenty catties could not be harvested on a few acres.

decided to plant early peanuts, but there were no seeds, so He Jianguo took a lot of effort to ask Huo Jianfeng to get the peanut seeds.

The production team has peanut seeds, but they are public and are not allowed to be used privately.

In fact, it is a bit early to plant peanuts at this time, and the production team used to start planting peanuts after the Qingming Festival, and now it is not yet the Qingming Festival. However, He Jianguo was afraid that after he went out, Qi Shufang would not be able to do it alone, so he planted it first.

He drove two oxen and one horse to pull an iron plough, and soon ploughed three points of the land and loosened the soil.

Qi Shufang sat on the ground with her cheeks crossed and watched him busy with his work, remembering the picture of the ploughing ox she had once seen, "Jianguo, is one cow not enough? How can you use two cows and one horse instead of three?

"This is a three-animal plow, of course, you have to use three animals to pull, a cow can't pull up, three oxen are not suitable, the speed of the horse-drawn iron plough is relatively slow, just with the ox to work, has always been two oxen and a horse or two oxen and a mule. He Jianguo ploughed the land twice, then returned to the ground and stopped, wielding a shovel to dig the soil and make ridges.

The muscles under the undershirt bulged, and Qi Shufang's eyes were shining, so manly!

Her family Jianguo is really powerful, but it is still too weak, and she has to exercise well, alas, her energy is better than her husband's is also a kind of distress! No, her family Jianguo is not short of exercise, and she is usually very tired from work, so she mainly has to eat some good things with oil and water to make up for it. Nowadays, people who don't eat well, don't dress warmly, and have to work hard, are all overdrawing their lives.

Not...... Why don't you go to the mountains tomorrow to find out if there are any sika deer?

The sika deer is full of treasures, deer antlers, deer skin, deer blood, venison, deer whips......

Qi Shufang was thinking about how to replenish her husband's body next, and her face was red when she thought about it, and her husband's voice came from the other end and asked, "Shufang, I have left almost two cents of land on the ground, is it enough to grow vegetables?"

"Enough, enough, how much can I eat at home alone?"

They plan to plant peanuts in three points, and eight centimeters of the other land are currently planted with garlic seedlings, which grow lush, the spring breeze blows, the waves are undulating, it is very gratifying, and the garlic can be harvested a few days before the Dragon Boat Festival, and the two centimeters of the land are left to grow home-cooked vegetables, after the Qingming Festival, before the garlic harvest, you have to plant peppers, eggplants, potatoes and beans, pumpkins and other vegetables.

Qi Shufang jumped up suddenly, and she remembered that she had forgotten to raise seedlings.

Beans, pumpkins, winter melons, etc. can be planted directly with peanuts, but peppers and eggplants are not, these two kinds of seedlings must be raised first, and then transplanted to the ground when the seedlings grow to a foot high, and potatoes must be cut into pieces and buried in the dung heap to make them germinate, and the planting time is before the peppers and eggplants.

Fortunately, it was not too late, after planting peanuts, Qi Shufang hurriedly beckoned He Jianguo to carve out a small piece of land in the yard to get these things.

The courtyards of each family are not small, and the state stipulates that vegetables are not allowed to be grown in the yard, but seedlings are allowed.

However, according to the national policy, it is not allowed to grow wheat, rice, corn, sweet potatoes and other food crops, nor is it allowed to grow cotton.

Qi Shufang found that there were many people who planted onions, ginger and garlic, but few people planted soybeans, peanuts, sesame and other cash crops.

The reason why onions, ginger and garlic are planted is because these things can be sold to non-staple food purchasing stations, and home-cooked vegetables are planted less.

Early the next morning, He Jianguo slept soundly, Qi Shufang quietly went out before dawn, the whole production team was silent, the smoke did not rise, she rode a bicycle to the foot of the West Mountain, let go of her mental power, rummaged through several continuous mountains, and finally caught a sika deer, broke her leg, and was not fatal, and stuffed it into a big bamboo basket in the back seat and covered it with a lid to take home.

Venison buns in the morning, venison feasts at noon, and soup made with a deer whip in the evening are very conspicuous.

He Jianguo was annoyed and angry, "Qi Shufang!"

"Huh?" Qi Shufang pretended to be stupid, and brought the soup to him with a smile, "Jianguo, come and eat, I sent a piece of venison to my sister-in-law and sister-in-law during the day, and my father won't come at night." "Deer whips are a good thing, don't eat them if you don't have a companion!

"I'll let you know what I'm capable of at night!" He Jianguo gulped down the soup indignantly, almost burning his tongue.

"Jianguo, drink slowly, what's the hurry! No one will rob you. ”

"Humph!"

Qi Shufang deeply felt that the effect of the deer whip was not good, and there was no big battle for three hundred rounds. Although it's not good, it's much more powerful than before eating, He Jianguo is not at home, she goes to find the sika deer again, and the deer whip is kept and waits for him to come back to make up for his body, hehe!

The eighteenth day of the holiday was soon approaching, and He Jianguo decided to buy an evening train and set off after lunch.

"You bring the money given by your father, pay off part of the debt first, don't owe it. Don't worry about me, I have everything at home, and I still have twenty or thirty yuan left in my hand, which is enough to spend, so I usually buy some soy sauce, vinegar and salt. Qi Shufang packed his luggage, packed his new clothes, new shoes and new watches into rattan boxes, and packed some of the venison that had been dried and dried after pickling, and the food basket contained steamed buns and air-dried game, boiled eggs, venison jerky, and a large stack of multigrain pancakes that Qi Shufang baked for him yesterday, if preserved, it was enough for him to eat as a staple food for half a month, and the aluminum lunch box was full of dishes fried at noon.

He Jianguo was very reluctant, and advised: "When I arrive, I will write to you, and you will reply to me when you receive the letter, I don't know when I will be transferred to work somewhere else." I'm not at home, you lock the door at night, go out less, if there is anything that can't be solved, go to your father and eldest brother and second brother, if they can't solve it, you go to Jianfeng and love them, don't carry it yourself. ”

He hesitated for a moment and said in a low voice, "Dad, teacher and wife, please take care of you." When he is away from work, he is most at ease with his wife and the three elders.

"Don't worry, I'll be careful, you don't have to worry about teachers and teachers outside. Qi Shufang nodded, pushed back the money He Jianguo re-stuffed to her, and her face sank, "I don't want it, if you keep it for me again, I'll be angry." You don't want me to suffer, I want you to be in debt? You have to take the money and pay back the famine. ”

"Hey, Shufang, don't be angry, I'll take it. "If you pay off your debts, you can send home the wages you received in advance.

"Jianguo, have you packed up? Don't go late, you can't buy a ticket. ”

"It's coming! It's coming!" He Jianjun drove the carriage to send He Jianguo, He Jianguo carried the luggage into the car, didn't let Qi Shufang follow, ran back and forth, it was too tiring, and if Qi Shufang went, Zhang Cuihua would have to miss a day's work and follow him.

Therefore, Qi Shufang could only stand at the door and watch their brothers drift away.
