137. Move into a new home
In fact, star fruit has always been very worried in her heart, and she is very afraid that Qingcang, the rich second generation, is used to luxury on weekdays, so she will buy the most haode wood. He tried to deduct her money when she handed in the drawings, but she was not afraid, mainly because she didn't want to appear too ostentatious in the village.
When I came back to see it, I heard the carpenter master say that these are the commonly used woods of the Zhuang family, and the star fruit didn't understand what this wood was, but he was relieved.
It seems that this Qing Cang also knows how to act in a low-key manner on weekdays, and the star fruit feels more and more that Qing Cang can be trusted.
I think that if Qingcang is changed, he will definitely not do such a swagger as hiring a dozen or twenty carriages, so that everyone in the village who wants to go to the town can watch the lanterns. However, since the kite struck his name, it was not his doing, but he did it.
There are not many carpenters, only two, a master, an apprentice, and a coachman's eldest brother, and the meal is relatively easy to cook, and it is only a lunch. Star fruit and grandma made it, and on weekdays it was just to boil more boiling water.
Enthusiastic people in the village, such as Aunt Lu and Aunt Liu, began to help make new bedding, and after breakfast, they came to the small home where star fruit and grandmother lived temporarily.
The old ones were not thrown away, but the cotton was fluffy in the sun, and it was replaced with a new liner and a new face.
"After building a new house, the next big thing for Grandma Pei's family is to marry a daughter-in-law for Kouwa and find a mother-in-law for Peach." Aunt Lu said jokingly while threading the needle.
"It's still early!" Aunt Liu also smiled. "It's just that if Grandma Pei doesn't want Peach to go too far, it is most suitable to find a mother-in-law for Peach in our village. Although the baby and the peach are not brothers and sisters, they already have the status of brothers and sisters, it's not good, and our little three children are too young, so I look at it. Your big black is the most suitable. ”
Ahem! Star fruit belly slander. Aunts and aunts, you can make quilts and quilts, and what are you talking about? Is it the warmth in this small courtyard that makes you too excited?
Fortunately, she was busy boiling water, coming out and going in for a while, pretending to be very busy. I didn't hear it, I didn't hear it.
"If I can marry a daughter-in-law who is so sensible and capable of being able to bear the peach, I will be happy. Aunt Liu, if you don't wait two years, you will be a matchmaker for the two of us? Aunt Lu smiled even more happily.
Carambola is speechless, why is this aunt still serious? Wrong! The IQ of the people in the countryside should not be underestimated, maybe this aunt seems to mention this inadvertently, but it is actually intentional.
Fortunately, my grandmother kept silent.
"Mother, Aunt Liu, I don't want that peach girl. It's too wild, it's better to be a peach, I'm a rare peach. Lu Dahei and Pei Yifan didn't know when they entered the courtyard, and when they heard Aunt Lu and Aunt Liu say this, they took it seriously and said in a rough voice.
Star fruit is so happy in my heart! Now it's okay, there is a big black road for her to use as a shield.
Although she knew that her grandmother was not the kind of person who would make her own decisions about the marriage of her children when she was excited, there was a real day. I will definitely discuss it with her, but I'm really afraid that the eldest aunt will tease her with this as soon as she is happy. Her thoughts are complex. I don't know how ordinary children answer this question!
"Silly boy, my mother and aunt are joking here, you are still serious." Aunt Lu couldn't cry or laugh, but then laughed again. "Yes, Aunt Liu, your little peach is also very good, and I like it too. Otherwise, it's okay to do what my family said, what do you think? ”
"Oh......" Star fruit finally stopped, deliberately acting abruptly, with an innocent and excited look on her face. I said why did Brother Da Hei listen to Sister Xiao Tao so much, it turned out that he wanted Sister Xiao Tao to be his daughter-in-law! Aunt Auntie. I'll be a matchmaker for you when the time comes. ”
"Ahem!" Grandma couldn't help but laugh and cough. "Peach, this matchmaker is not for everyone, what kind of matchmaker should you be for a girl's family? If you want to be it, you have to come to grandma. ”
"Huh?" Carambola pursed her small mouth, deliberately not understanding anything, and muttered quietly. "I want to be a matchmaker......"
"Go, go, you little girl, what do you know!" Lu Dahei's face suddenly turned black and red, and he was really shy like that.
Carambola couldn't help but smile secretly, it seems that this hairy boy has just started to fall in love. It's much stronger than her, she's lived for two lifetimes, and she's still ignorant, and she doesn't know what to do!
“haha!” Aunt Lu couldn't help laughing, it seems that their son has really grown up, and when she mentions her daughter-in-law, she knows that she blushes.
“hahahaha!” Aunt Liu and Aunt Lu also laughed.
Lu Dahei saw that the situation was not good, and only then did he understand that he should not talk to him, so he hurriedly pulled Pei Yifan out of the yard and went out to play.
Although the star fruit also laughed, it was suddenly a little worried.
The ancients got married early, and Lu Dahei was only thirteen or fourteen years old, and Aunt Lu had already thought about this problem as if she were careless, if it was two years later, wouldn't she think about this seriously? Thinking about the fact that there are still a lot of boys of this age in the village, I am really worried that one day, a matchmaker will run to her house.
Although she has never had a boyfriend, she really doesn't like the old way of "blind date" and "matchmaking".
Suddenly, I thought of kites, even if the people in the rivers and lakes are chic, if his parents set him the head of a sect or something, it is estimated that he must listen to the words of his parents!
This thought made star fruit a little depressed, she didn't want to marry in a daze without talking about it once. Fortunately, she was not dressed as big as a goose and a fish, otherwise she might have been really talked about now.
Thankfully, she's still young, still young...... Now you just need to think about how to make money and how to make your life more comfortable.
The quilt and pillow surface, star fruit was bought from the Decoration Pavilion, and they are the most common materials.
Originally, Aunt Lu and Aunt Liu wanted to use some rags to put together a few pillows, but the rags were of little use anyway, but the star fruit felt that it was too time-consuming, so it was better to buy ready-made.
"Also, with that kind of work, we might as well make a few more cloth stickers, and the money spent will be earned." Aunt Lu also thought very clearly.
Aunt Liu was supposed to give her the pillow as long as the money for the quilt, but the star fruit insisted on refusing, and Aunt Liu knew her, so she didn't fight and gave her the lowest price.
When I got home, I filled it with some buckwheat peel and the pillow was done.
Because he felt that it was too troublesome to disassemble and wash the quilt, the star fruit ran to the brocade pavilion again, and even said with a gesture, and asked Aunt Liu to ask the tailor to help make the quilt cover and pillowcase.
Aunt Liu felt that this method of star fruit was very good, so she simply asked the tailor to make two more samples to see if she could sell them.
The carriage in which the two carpenters rode back and forth, it is said that they were their own, and even had their own coachman, who pulled them to the horse pen by the pond every day, and it was very convenient to drink the horses.
The men have begun to plant spring corn and vegetables, although this kind of vegetables is not too difficult, but the quantity is large, fortunately, everyone is united, and from the people who bought the seeds, they learned to plant the seedlings densely first, and then find a way to transplant the way, but also in full swing, very confident.
Seeing that the new home has been roughly formed, the things that should be bought are almost bought, so it is also in the south of the yard, so that Pei Yifan has the time to turn over the land, planting some beans, eggplants, loofahs, bitter gourds and peppers, plus celery and cucumbers that grandma has to plant every year, and leeks are almost perennial, and there are many varieties in this small vegetable garden.
That Pei Yifan has also become a little thicker this year, a little like a country boy. Grandma was going to turn over the ground by herself and let the star fruit stop her.
"Grandma, let's let my brother do it, he will do this sooner or later."
Grandma thought about it, since she wanted Pei Yifan to live an ordinary and stable life, she should indeed let him learn to do some work in the village, and always spoil him, and it was really not a choice, so she didn't stop it anymore, just touched the head of the star fruit with her hand and sighed quietly.
Originally, the gate of the house was not open to the south, and the courtyard wall was only a wooden fence, so the vegetables were planted next to the yard.
Fortunately, the leeks are not next to the yard, so there is no need to move the place, and it is not troublesome.
The star fruit used the jagged wooden sticks that were originally used as the courtyard wall, picked out some that could still be used and were relatively neat, and let Pei Yifan and Lu Dahei go to the mountains to get some new ones when they were idle, anyway, they couldn't tire them by working while playing.
Lu Dahei and Pei Yifan found a few half-sized children in the village who had nothing to do on weekdays to help, and in only two days, they got out the fence of the small vegetable garden, and made a small gate like the original yard.
In this way, people can close it when they come in and go out, and they can prevent anyone's chickens from free-range on weekdays, and they go to the vegetable garden to eat and plan, which looks neat.
Star fruit planted some flowers on both sides of the gate of the yard and the small vegetable garden.
I didn't have much embroidery work last time, the big girls and little daughters-in-law in the village were intermittent, and they finished embroidering quickly, and made more than 20 cloth stickers.
was so busy until the beginning of April, star fruit finally moved into a new home with grandma and Pei Yifan, and the vegetable garden in the village was also quite rudimentary, and its own small vegetable garden was also presentable.
In the evening, the star fruit took a hot bath, covered with a quilt that had just been exposed to the sun, and felt that every cell in the body was extremely comfortable.
I also imagined waiting for the summer, when I walked out of the house every day, the sun was shining and the flowers were blooming, and there were green fresh vegetables, and maybe some butterflies would fly from time to time, and my heart was very comfortable.
The enjoyment of this rural life seems simple, but in fact, it is not the same to have money or not. Carambola decided to write a picture of "God rewards diligence" on another day, and took it to the ink studio to mount it, and hung it in the outer room of his room, which can be regarded as a spiritual praise and motivation for himself. (To be continued......)
