Da Lang cried for a while, and he was a little embarrassed, when the brothers were always crying in front of their sisters, the more they thought about it, the more embarrassed they felt, several people glanced at each other, wiped their faces with their sleeves, lowered their heads and blushed, and did not speak.

Situ Yan knew that her brothers were embarrassed, so she didn't mention this stubble anymore, and told them about the plan in her heart, which can be regarded as a fork in the matter.

"Big brother, this room is there, but the window pane is still empty, and you can stay during the day, but at night the house is filled with wind and you can't sleep. So today we are pasting this window paper. Just use the waste paper that I exchanged from the county school a few days ago. I have a way to get the ink on the paper, although there will be some marks if it is not clean, but it will not affect anything. ”

"Xiao Wu, it turns out that you changed those pieces of paper to paste the windows!" Shiro has always been unable to figure out what is the use of Xiao Wu asking for those waste papers, and every time he takes them back, he has to pick and stack them, and now he finally understands.

"Little Five is the smartest." San Lang looked at such a little sister, and was proud in his heart, no one was as smart as his little five. Although Da Lang felt that the windows of the new house must not look good, he knew the situation at home, and he couldn't afford to buy paper for pasting the windows. Yesterday, I made a banquet, and spent all the money that my little sister had saved a few days ago, and he was still distressed, thinking that he would have money to carry the work tomorrow, and then change the window paper to a new one.

"The third brother and the fourth brother will help me do this thing of pasting the window. The eldest brother and the second brother made all the straw mats piled up in the hall into hanging sheds, and made the hall house, east and west rooms. ”

"Little Five, what is the hanging shed?" The first time Li Erlang heard the word "hanging shed", he didn't know what it was or what it was for.

Si Zhiyan slapped her forehead, she almost forgot, this is ancient, how can the ancients understand those modern words. Hurriedly followed a few people to explain how to do the hanging shed and how to install it.

As for why she had a hanging shed in the house, she didn't explain much. It's not that she doesn't want to explain, it's just that the hanging shed (suspended ceiling) is to prevent falling dust; Second, reducing the indoor space is conducive to winter insulation; Third, it is beautiful and easy to clean. If it is really explained, I am afraid that these four people will be frightened by her thoughts, so say less and do more, and let the next few people slowly understand it.

Da Lang and Erlang listened the most, because the two of them had to do the thing about the hanging shed, although San Lang and Shiro also listened, but Situ Yan could see that they didn't understand.

The matter of the hanging shed was decided in this way, and Situ Yan took San Lang and Shiro to carry the waste paper that was sorted out before and suitable for pasting the window into the clean room. It is best to use sorghum paper for pasting windows, in order not to make people suspicious, she can't buy sorghum paper, which is also difficult for her, and directly select leather paper from waste paper (Xuan paper, cotton paper can be called leather paper), such paper is white, flexible, thin and porous, and is barely suitable for pasting windows.

When you enter the clean room, first ask San Lang to burn the kang stove to warm up the house, and it will be used to dry the paper for a while. I also dehumidify the kang of the new tray by the way. Then ask Shiro to go outside and find more forked branches, cut the spikes, and wait a while to hang the washed paper on them.

She took two wooden pots herself, filled the first pot with mashed barberry and sheep's hoof, and mixed it with water to make oxalic water. Put the rice water and salt in the second wooden basin. (The rice is just right for a reunion dinner at night)

When everything was ready, she turned around and noticed that Saburo was standing behind her and looking at her.

"Third brother, is there something wrong?"

"It's okay, Xiao Wu, you know more." San Lang is proud to have such a sister, but he feels that he doesn't understand anything compared to his little sister, like a waste, and he is very lost.

Situ Yan noticed the flickering loss in San Lang's eyes, and took his hand to persuade, "When my father was alive, I often said that I had specialized skills in the art industry, and no one knew everything, but I used to watch more with my father, remember more, and the third brother can also do it in the future." "I always used Situ Wan as an excuse before, but now I think it's better to change someone, otherwise I'm a little sorry for the original mother.

San Lang looked at the light of trust in his little sister's eyes, and secretly decided that he must learn more from his little sister, and he would help his little sister do these things, and no longer let his little sister suffer. I have a plan in my heart, and my mood is also better.

When Shiro entered the house, she happened to see Xiaomei holding Saburo's hand and talking, and her heart was a little sour, but she didn't understand why, if she let Situ Yan know, she would definitely scold Shiro, a 9-year-old little fart child, who learned to fall in love.

"Little Wu, these tree forks have been sharpened, where to put them?"

"Separate them, just the west wall, a little closer to the kang stove." Seeing that Shiro had already put it away, he summoned the two of them, "Third brother, fourth brother, you all come and follow me." ”

Situ Yan taught and did at the same time, and asked San Lang and Shiro to follow along, "The third brother first took some paper from the basket, soaked it in the first basin, and then gently wiped it a few times with his hands, seeing that the ink on the paper was shallow, and after a few more scoops, put the paper in the second basin." The fourth brother did what he just did, soaked the paper in the second basin, and gently wiped it a few times with his hands, and then handed it to me after a few strokes, and then I hung the paper one by one on the fork of the tree to dry, and the window paper was done. ”

"Little Five, can this really be done?" It's not that Shiro doesn't believe in Xiao Wu, it's just that he's never seen anyone do this, and he feels a little bottomless.

"I'm not sure, but how do I know if I don't try it or not?" She is confident in the chemical reaction caused by barberry and sheep's hoof, but whether she can really wash the ink off, she has never tried it in her previous life, just on paper, and there is a theory. But her character has always been like this, she has always thought that if she doesn't try, she will not succeed, and if she tries, at least there is a chance of success.

"I believe in Xiao Wu." San Lang's words have become smoother and smoother this month, and it is no longer difficult to say four words at once like this.

"It's not that I don't believe it." Shiro tilted his head, he was still a little concerned about what had just happened, and he was a little emotional when he spoke to Saburo.

Situ Yan didn't pay attention, she just thought it was two stinky boys arguing.

"Alright, let's do it." The three of them didn't speak anymore, and they got busy like assembly line work.

In the house, Erlang and Dalang were threading ropes on straw mats, and the two chatted while busy, "Big brother, you have to take me with you tomorrow." The family built a house and made a banquet, and spent all the money for Xiao Wu to collect medicine, and I am afraid that even the silver money left by my godmother for Xiao Wu has been spent. ”

"No, your body hasn't grown yet, if you're tired and sick, you can do it alone, you come to the house to help Xiao Wu pick up all the land that can be planted in the yard, and it will be good to plant it when spring begins." Li Dalang disagreed, this work is in good health, the younger brothers couldn't even eat a full meal before, a thin handful of bones, although they have eaten well this month, but this meat can not grow in a day.

"Big brother, if the two of us do it, we can have an extra piece of silver, how can this big family just point at you alone, and then tire you down, and there is no one in charge of the family. I'm 13 years old, but I'm no longer a child, you just let me go, I want to make a lot of money for Xiao Wu, so that Xiao Wu can live a good life, and I don't have to follow us all the time to suffer hardships. Xiao Wu has lost a lot of weight since he entered the house, and his face is red, and I feel distressed when I look at it. ”

Da Lang also understands, but Xiao Wu is his younger sister, and Erlang is his younger brother, so he can't let the second brother suffer for the sake of Xiao Mei. "No, I don't agree with that. Let this be said again. Erlang saw that Da Lang insisted, and he didn't say anything more, but he thought in his heart that the eldest brother listened to the little sister the most, and when he had dinner, let the little sister persuade the eldest brother.

It was busy until noon, and a few people had a brief meal, and then they heard that the village was driving an ox cart to approach the yard.

"Dalang, are you at home? I'm your Uncle Muramasa. ”

"Here, Uncle is here." Da Lang ran to open the courtyard door, and Situ Yan and a few others followed suit.

"A few of you moved quickly, I still thought that I would send them in the morning and come over to help, you guys are good, you have all moved in." Muramasa said as he moved things from the car into the yard.

Situ Yan took a look, there were two grain tanks and a pit table, which were all urgently needed at home, so she hurriedly asked Da Lang to step forward and carry the kang table into the hall, and the grain tank was moved directly into the stove room.

"Uncle Wangfu, these things look new." The things were moved, and Situ Yan found that these things didn't look like they were old, but like they were newly bought.

"This, it's a housewarming gift from my uncle, this elder can't give it away, you can't help but accept it." The village is preparing for these, one is that his younger brother and sister almost hurt others, and he has been reluctant to go, the second is that his daughter-in-law saw red yesterday and added bad luck to several children, and the third is that the girl gave such a heavy gift yesterday, and he didn't want to go, so he took advantage of the time when he sent the little sheep to the county school today, and helped buy it in the county seat.

"Look at what Uncle said, you just give a mountain of gold and silver, and I will take it. Thank you, uncle and aunt, for giving us a reason to enter filial piety. Then I'm going to come to the door more often, so don't be annoyed. Situ Yan pulled the village and said as he walked into the main house.

"Yes, Uncle can't tell you, as long as you want to come, Uncle is welcome at any time."

"Uncle Wangfu, you sit down first, and I'll go and bring you a bowl of water." The village was first put on the kang of the hall, which happened to be hot, and he ran out without waiting for anyone to speak.

"There's no time for this girl to stop." looked at Situ Yan's back when he went out and scolded with a smile.

Turning his head, he spoke to the big man sitting by the kang, "Big Lang, it's not cold in the daytime, are you still burning the kang?" The village was sitting and realized that this kang was warm, and it was a little strange to think that it was burning the kang. Although this firewood does not cost money, it is not such a waste, and the firewood needs to be kept for the winter.

Da Lang didn't know why the little sister burned the kang, but Shiro broke the siege out loud, "Uncle Muramasa, it was Xiao Wu who let him burn it, Xiao Wu used firewood to exchange a lot of paper written by others from the county school, and he was washing down the plan to paste the window at this time." ”

"This is a rare thing, this paper can also be washed, take me to see it." It was also the first time that Muramasa had heard about this, and he was curious, and he couldn't sit still and wanted to follow along.

Situ Yan was coming in with a water bowl at this moment, and just heard this, "Uncle Wangfu, don't listen to the fourth brother's nonsense, I don't know if this will succeed, just try." Handing the water bowl to Muramasa, she turned around and glared at Shiro, she wanted to keep a low profile, but this brother held her up everywhere, she didn't know whether to be happy or angry.

Muramasa took the water bowl and drank it first, and then answered, "If it doesn't work out, if you can have this idea, you will be better than others." Hey, this is all forced out of poor days, uncle knows that your life is not easy. After this interruption, there was no desire to see the excitement, and several people chatted for a while, Situ Yan wanted to stay in the village to eat, but the village said that he would not do anything, and went back in a hurry.
