CHAPTER XXXIX

And here, Lin Yi sent Carpenter Zhang home, and said at the door of Carpenter Zhang's house, "Carpenter Zhang, you see that tomorrow our house is only open to the door, I want to pay you the salary, you can calculate how much it costs!" ”

When Carpenter Zhang heard that Lin Yi was going to marry him, he hurriedly said, "Eldest nephew, I can be regarded as a friend to your father, you and your sister are bothering to entertain me and my apprentice today, and I don't want much from you, just give me two taels of silver." ”

When Lin Yi heard about two taels of silver, he really felt that the price was not expensive, after all, a full set of furniture and windows, doors, beams or something, it was definitely not worth two taels of silver, and Carpenter Zhang must be cheap.

But what Carpenter Zhang asked for so much, it was just two taels of silver. Hey! When it comes to figuring out her thoughts, Lin Xiuxiu is called the first, and others dare not call it the second, after all, she has lived for several years in the apocalypse, how can she do it without thoughts and eyes, and she can't rely on spiritual abilities alone!

Lin Yi handed the money in his arms to Carpenter Zhang and said, "Thank you, Uncle Zhang, it's really troublesome for you." Carpenter Zhang took the money handed over by Lin Yi, checked it with water, and found that the weight was not bad, so he said to Lin Yi, "Don't bother, my eldest nephew has something to come to me." ”

"Okay, that's okay, let's see you every day." Lin Yi hurriedly wanted to say goodbye to Carpenter Zhang, Carpenter Zhang nodded and said, "Well, the eldest nephew should be careful when he goes back." ”

Lin Yi listened to Carpenter Zhang's words, nodded, and took advantage of the night to walk home.

When I got home, I found that Xiaohua had left, and my sister was fetching water and preparing to wash. Seeing that his brother was back, Lin Xiu said and hurriedly asked, "How much did Carpenter Zhang ask for?" ”

Lin Yi was stunned for a moment before he quickly replied, "No more, no less, exactly two taels of silver." Lin Xiuxiu nodded knowingly. Lin Yi felt very strange, why did his sister know that Carpenter Zhang just wanted two taels of silver?

"Sister, how do you know that Carpenter Zhang wants two taels of silver?" Lin Yi really couldn't control his curiosity and asked his sister.

Lin Xiuxiu hurriedly said to her brother, "Have you forgotten that your father is also a carpenter?" Although he doesn't often tell you about his work, Daddy often tells me! I can roughly estimate how much Carpenter Zhang will cost. "Lin Xiuxiu can tell her brother that she has a lot of eyes, guess, of course she can't. So I used my dad as a shield, I'm sorry daddy.

Sure enough, my brother listened to me, and he didn't say anything anymore, and I was relieved that I didn't have to say anything more.

My brother and I washed up relatively silently, and hurried to bed. Just as I was about to go to bed, my brother suddenly asked me, "Sister, do you want your father and mother?" ”

Lin Xiuxiu pondered for a moment and replied, "Yes, but my father and mother are forever gone." My brother listened to my words and didn't say anything, and after a while, he said with a little choked up, "Well, my father and mother are not gone, they are watching us from heaven and protecting us, so we have to live every day happily and don't let them worry." ”

After listening to her brother's words, Lin Xiuxiu returned and said, "Well, brother, we have to live well with our brother together, and don't let our father and mother worry about us in heaven." ”

After listening to my words, my brother didn't say anything, and soon I fell asleep.

The next morning, my brother and I both got up, and there seemed to be something more on my brother's face, oh! It's a relief. My brother finally came out of the shadow of the death of his father and mother.

Lin Xiuxiu was in the kitchen, digging a bowl of rice, and when she was about to cook porridge, Carpenter Zhang came, still leading the carriage, with a gate and a lot of furniture behind it.

Because the newly built room is still very damp, so in a few days my brother and I are going to pick up dry branches and come back to smoke and dry the room, so we didn't put the furniture room in the new room, and put the furniture in the small room of my brother and me, my room is full of piles, and there is no place to put my feet.

Lin Xiuxiu hurriedly prepared to cook the rice, and sweetened a few more bowls of rice to make porridge, after all, Lin Xiuxiu was going to make breakfast. was afraid that when they were done and they hadn't eaten yet, Lin Xiuxiu hurriedly got busy. After a while, Xiaohua also came over, and saw Lin Xiuxiu cooking, so she hurriedly came over to help, and the porridge was ready in a while.

But when it comes to porridge and porridge, it is absolutely not thin, and chopsticks can definitely stand on it. Afraid that there would be no vegetables, Lin Xiuxiu hurriedly cut a pound of meat and fried it with chili peppers.

The dishes were fried meat and pickles with chili peppers, and seeing that Carpenter Zhang had already set up the door, Lin Xiuxiu hurriedly beckoned them to come over for dinner.

Carpenter Zhang looked at the door and found that it had been installed, so he asked his apprentice to go to Lin Xiuxiu's house to eat together, and when he saw the food on the table, Carpenter Zhang was still not satisfied, after all, the work had been done, and it was already very good to make it so rich.

After Carpenter Zhang finished eating, he asked his apprentices to pack up and prepare to go back, at this time, Lin Xiuxiu took out two catties of meat from the room and gave it to Carpenter Zhang and said, "Uncle Zhang, you have worked hard, this is Xie Yi, I hope you don't dislike it." ”

Carpenter Zhang saw what Lin Xiuxiu handed over, and hurriedly took it with his hand and said, "Don't dislike it, don't dislike it, you and your brother are doing a good job, if there is anything else next time, just come to me." ”

Lin Xiuxiu listened to Carpenter Zhang's words, and Carpenter Zhang smiled, "Okay, then it will trouble Uncle Zhang in the future." In this way, Lin Xiuxiu sent Carpenter Zhang away.

Lin Xiuxiu and Xiaohua hurriedly washed the dishes and chopsticks, and at this time, Wang Bricklayer also brought his apprentice over. Looking at the door of Lin Yi's house, he hurriedly asked, "Brother Zhang went back after finishing his work?" ”

Hearing Wang's question, Lin Yi nodded and said, "Uncle Zhang came over early in the morning to give me furniture and we came to Anmen, just after it was settled, he left." Wang Bricklayer listened to Lin Yi's words, didn't say anything more, and began to step up his work, after all, people have already finished it, and he has to hurry up and find something else to make money.

Lin Xiuxiu looked at the people brought by Wang Bricklayer, and found that there were still several, so she went into the room and looked at the meat in the house, and found that there were five pieces of meat per catty, and two pieces of meat for two catties. There are three catties of pork ribs outside Ningwai, and almost more than a catty of pork belly, and two pairs of pigs in the water.

Anyway, today is not worried about eating meat for them, and I am not worried that my brother and I have no meat to eat these days. I took out the leftover pork belly and ribs and prepared to cook today's lunch. You will ask me why I did not make pigs for the king's bricklayers to eat?

Because the pig water has a difficult question for me, and it is not very tasty, although I removed the difficult taste, and it is very delicious. But it still can't be changed that the pig water is the key to the poor people can't buy meat to eat, so they buy the pig into the water to beat the tooth sacrifice, after all, the pig water is for the poor to eat.

If I want to say that it is made for the bricklayer to eat, it is inevitable that he will feel uncomfortable, and today is the last day of work, and I don't want to make any extraneous branches. Let's leave the pig to my brother and me
