Chapter 134: Grasp the big and small things
Hearing the captain's voice, Xiao Yao hurriedly greeted him, only to see the captain striding over, followed by his daughter Xiaoqing.
"Captain, I'm sorry for you these days, I heard what I said on Wednesday, Secretary Zhang deliberately went to the commune to apply for killing pigs, which is a big deal. ”
"What kind of affection, we are not touching you and eating meat with us. If Wednesday and you are not brothers, it is impossible to apply for pig killing. However, we still have to pay for this pig, and we can't afford it. ”
"Of course, do you still want to do a secret operation like last time?"
"Hahaha, don't talk about that, it's all me who misinterprets you, so don't mention it. Secretary Zhang said that tomorrow the leaders of the brigade will all be present, and the leaders of several neighboring brigades are also clamoring to come. Secretary Zhang asked me to tell you in advance, so that you can know in your heart. ”
"Hey, you're always telling me in advance? It's late, and the people who bought wine and vegetables have already left. ”
"What's there, as long as you know, you won't be afraid of wine and food, we have more than 300 catties of big fat pigs, how to eat enough. Tomorrow, at least eight tables will be set up, and the leaders' tables will be arranged with eight people per table. ”
"Captain, eight tables is definitely not enough, Brother Wednesday will bring his brothers to celebrate tomorrow, I don't know the number of people now, it is estimated that there are at least a dozen people. ”
Captain Zhang was really anxious when he heard this, because in the whole village, the six tables last time were barely usable, and this added two tables, and you can also find something to make up, and this time you have to add two more tables, and you can't make up it. Xiao Yao saw that Captain Zhang was pondering there, and he didn't disturb him, waiting for him to speak.
"Xiao Yao, I won't tell you, tomorrow there are not enough tables and benches, so you can't let people sit on the ground to eat, right? You can't set a table in the east and a table in the west, everyone is here to celebrate, and it's not good to put anyone far away and not be able to see it. ”
"The place is easy to manage, anyway, this greenhouse, it won't stay for a few days, so I will dismantle it first, and then level the surroundings, I think it's almost enough." It's just that this table and bench, it's too late to buy it now, can the captain find a way to go out and borrow a few to use. ”
"That's the only way, I'll ask Xiaoqing and her mother to take a few laborers to borrow four tables and chairs from the next village at night. Borrow some cutlery by the way. When the time comes, there won't be enough chopsticks, and that's a joke."
The captain and Xiao Yao discussed other matters again, and left in a hurry, Xiaoqing didn't leave, and accompanied Jing'er with Xiaoling, chatting there with her mother.
Xiao Yao walked in, talked to Grandpa Qian and his son about the discussion with the captain, and told them that early tomorrow morning, the greenhouse would be dismantled and the table would be set, and the father and son nodded in agreement.
It wasn't until it was getting late that Xiao Yao and Jing'er's family went to see the progress of the house together. Huang Bantou is still leading the workers to smash the floor with broken bricks, and after the interior walls are painted, they are paved with cement mortar and finished, and the work is over. When Huang Bantou saw Xiao Yao and others coming, he hurriedly got up and greeted:
"Brother Xiao, the preparations before the beam are all ready, if I hadn't discussed with you the auspicious time for tomorrow, I could have been on the beam yesterday, you haven't come, but let me wait." ”
"These days, I have worked hard for you, and tomorrow I will eat more together, and the wine and meat will be enough. Huang Bantou, I want to ask you for a favor. ”
"You say, brother, we're busy. ”
"There will be more visitors tomorrow, and there will not be enough places to set the table, so I want you to arrange for someone to dismantle the greenhouse early tomorrow morning so that the table can be set. We'll sleep at night, and we'll be in the new house for two days, what do you think?"
"It doesn't have to be tomorrow, the two kitchens have been paved with tile rafters, they are all densely laid, as long as it doesn't rain, it's much better than the greenhouse. I can live in the kitchen tonight, and when the beam is finished tomorrow, I will lay out the kitchen tiles first. That's it. I'll arrange for someone to move things, and I'll dismantle it for you overnight, so that you won't have a lot of trouble tomorrow. Brother Xiao is a blessed person, from the start of construction to the present, God has helped, there has not been a single rain, this weather, three or five days, there will be no rain. Doing the work with your hands and feet is a great blessing. ”
Xiao Yao was talking to Huang Bantou as he walked to the back kitchen. Huang Bantou has asked a few people to go to the greenhouse and bring everything that can be moved.
Get inside the kitchen door. The outer room is empty, and it will be used as a restaurant for eating in the future, and there is a pot table in the inner room, with a double stove of different sizes, leaving two holes according to the commonly used specifications on the market. When Xiaoling saw it for the first time, she praised the pot table so exquisitely:
"This pot is so beautiful, the chimneys are all patterned, and there are three layers of steps, which is too delicate. ”
When Huang Bantou heard Xiao Ling's praise, his heart was also beautiful, this was the most beautiful and practical pot table he had ever seen, and he united it to build for Xiao Yao. Although Jing'er's parents had already seen it, their joy was still on their faces.
Huang Bantou's people first carried the two big beds in, Xiao Yao asked them to put one outside, one into the inside, ready to sleep at night, and the rest were not big, so they were all placed on the ground outside.
After a simple dinner, Xiaoqing came again, and asked Xiaoling to go to her house to sleep, Xiaoling looked at Xiao Yao silently, Xiao Yao thought about it, and he had to go with him, and asked Xiaoqing if she could, Xiaoqing happily agreed, saying that she could go and build a small bed, and her room would be for Xiaoling and Xiao Yao to sleep. Jing'er also wanted to follow, Xiao Yao comforted her for a long time, and asked her to sleep with her mother at night, so Jing'er reluctantly agreed.
When they arrived at Xiaoqing's house, Xiao Yao asked Xiaoling and Xiaoqing to sleep together, and the small bed she slept in, Xiaoqing no longer agreed, saying that she couldn't break them up. Xiaoqing also knew that Xiao Yao would have a lot of things to do tomorrow, so she didn't dare to stay in the room for a long time, so after talking to each other, she went to sleep by herself.
The first time she slept alone with Xiao Yao in a room, on a bed, Xiao Ling was still a little nervous, she was looking forward to what would happen, but she was afraid of what would happen, she lay down on the bed, and she didn't dare to sleep in Xiao Yao's arms again, facing out of the window, with her back to Xiao Yao. Xiao Yao thought that she didn't go home this time and was homesick. He didn't bother Xiao Ling, he fell asleep to the right side, looking at Xiao Ling's back, drowsy. He was so tired that he hurried here non-stop to arrange many matters for tomorrow, and it didn't take long for a slight even snoring sound to be heard.
Xiao Ling, who had her back to Xiao Yao, was still thinking about her thoughts, waiting for Xiao Yao to come to talk to her, when she heard a snoring sound from behind, she was a little angry, and the first time she shared a bed with her alone, he didn't even say a word, and fell asleep. She flipped over and wanted to wake Xiao Yao up, but seeing Xiao Yao sleeping so sweetly, she couldn't bear it anymore.
On this day, how much Xiao Yao has done, she can see clearly, this eldest son who doesn't take the grass at home, doesn't pick up the grass, and doesn't ask about everything, comes here, he is the pillar of the family, no matter how big or small, far and near, Xiao Yao has to arrange and consider it as a whole. He's only a year older than him, and he's still in school. Thinking of this, Xiaoling's woman's unique maternal love overflowed. She didn't sleep in Xiao Yao's arms, but held Xiao Yao in her arms, pillowed his head on her plump chest, and looked at Xiao Yao with a kind face until she herself fell into a dream.
