Chapter 410: Celebration
On the 29th day of the lunar month, almost all the ox carts that can pull bricks and tiles in Qiyang County arrived at the scene, and Xiao Wu and a few little stewards were counting happily, while answering the greetings of the young and old of all families.
"Can I let my second son also come to work in the kiln? After working for a year, I can build a new house, and my eldest son has shown his face in the village, and he is coveted by our high wages, and what else do we pay - the welfare ...... of bricks and tiles."
Several old men smoked dry tobacco pouches and followed Xiao Wu's ass to make demands.
This moment is Xiao Wu's proudest, the smile on his face is more and more decent and humble: "Our brick kiln is really going to expand after the spring, as long as the children in the family are strong and humane, then even if they come to report, but the new house in this family can be built beautifully, and our owner likes everyone to live comfortably ......."
There is no ambiguity on the side of the barracks, a group of idle soldiers who have nothing to do are assembling solar energy, the iron box is on the roof, and the newly baked glass is also equipped, but the bamboo pipe can't help but freeze, and the water will be deiced as soon as it is wet.
So all kinds of methods were figured out, the straw rope and cloth strips were wrapped strongly, and the bamboo pipe finally reached safely into the bathroom.
The bamboo chip is quite easy to use as a switch, and the soldier egg is carefully drilled into a small hole, tied a thin rope and wrapped around the bamboo pipe to prevent the tightly fitting bamboo piece from escaping from the post.
In fact, there is a very key problem, that is, the water in the tin box cannot be filled by itself, and the soldiers fixed a wooden ladder by themselves, and planned to pour water into it every day by the person on duty.
Ah Yuan was very worried about this invention and didn't know if this piece of back glass could withstand the cold outside. After filling it with water. Will not only not receive the temperature of the solar energy. Instead, the whole thing is frozen into an ice lump?
Qi Ziyu stood carefully behind his sister and worried, he couldn't say anything intimate, but after the big guys dispersed, he quietly climbed onto the roof and stared intently at the tin box.
Later, it was found that the skin of the tin box was really frozen, and the silly boy thawed them with hot air one by one, although he was shivering with cold.
Fortunately, the sunshine in this afternoon is very face-saving. Later, Qi Ziyu almost fell asleep on the roof, but Bai Laosan couldn't find him anywhere, so he groped up to check.
"Hurry up, go down and run a few laps to warm up, what you need to watch, I'll do it." Bai Laosan's humanity is getting worse and worse, and he often smiles brightly these days.
"Shhh There's no frost too, under the glass. The water droplets are one by one, and they are very beautiful......".
Bai Laosan stretched out his hand to touch the transparent glass: "Ziyu, you don't know, your sister is very powerful, and she can succeed in anything." You see, the glass is still warm, and it can't freeze ......."
Isn't it? The flat surface of the glass was warm and warm, Qi Ziyu grinned, and then slowly moved his feet down the ladder.
Perhaps because the pollution of this era was not serious, the sunlight hit the glass without stinginess, and at night, when I tried to put water down, there was steaming in the small bathroom......
Wu Lu stretched out his hand to test the water temperature, it was not too hot, but it was enough for the men to take a bath, isn't it much better than a cold shower?
"This thing that the county lord is thinking about is our baby, wait for Ming'er to install a few more on the roof, don't freeze the baby tonight, so let's find more straw mats and sacks to wrap the baby, and wait for Ming'er to come out of the sun, and then open it for him!"
Wu Lu's arrangement is very popular with everyone, a large iron box of water is enough for many people to take turns to soak their feet, and there are several iron boxes behind that have not been put on, and more people can enjoy it tomorrow.
Anyway, the soldiers in the barracks are idle, and the hundred and ten people are divided into several groups to go to the brick kiln factory to do voluntary labor......
"What—why don't the fire in this kiln continue to be lit today, and the brothers continue to burn a kiln to try?" Xiao Wu can also be regarded as a hookup with profiteers, and it is embarrassing that the ready-made good labor is not enough.
It's too bad to burn a kiln just for the vegetables in the greenhouse, and now the soldiers can take over the work of the hired workers, so it's naturally good, Xiao Wu can't take care of going home with joy, and takes a few small stewards who stay behind to do counseling work together.
Bai Chengguang and Qi Ziyu are the happiest at work, because this is actually their own industry, and when Ah Yuan rushed over with the maid, what he saw was a smiling man running around and working hard.
The soldiers are very industrious, just like they had suggested at the beginning, Bai Chengguang and Wu Lu were training while reclaiming wasteland nearby, and they also planned to sow seeds here after the spring, trying to live a self-sufficient life as a soldier.
Now that he took the initiative to help with the work in the brick kiln factory, Ah Yuan's heart was warm, and he called Xiao Wu to instruct him: "Buy a few more fat pigs and come back, and add more meat to the brothers." ”
Wu Lu arranged it very well, until the sixth day of the first lunar month, before the hired workers came back, the soldiers would come to help, of course, they did it separately, and they didn't need to be too tired.
The solar bath is very powerful, the vegetables in the greenhouse grow and watery, and the soldiers all say that working in the brick kiln factory is more enjoyable than training, and the high temperature has passed the scorching heat.
The evening of the thirtieth day of the lunar month was Chinese New Year's Eve, and everyone simply gathered in the greenhouse outside the brick kiln, and the crowd sat together to be more intimate.
Everyone eats and drinks at will, and they feel beautiful when they pinch a handful of tender garlic seedlings, and the county lord arranges to hold a gala tonight, group competitions, to see which group's program is the most popular, and the members of the winning group can each get a piece of glass.
At this time, the glass can be incomparably expensive, the soldiers and eggs all shook their arms and used their brains, this era is indeed barren, singing mountain songs is very rare, storytelling is rare, sketch cross talk is even more mentioned, to zuihou found that as long as you dare to say a few witty words, you can reap earthquake-like applause and encouragement.
Feng Liqiang's team leader was very anxious, and several of his subordinates sent out were in a recession, leaving Bai Laosan and Qi Ziyu to shrink behind, for the reward of glass products, in order to fight for his group, the team leader waved his palm, and bet the two zuihou bets out.
"Chengyao, didn't you ever hum a song about a sugar gourd? Just sing that, and be the first! The team leader pushed the team members forward and came up with ideas.
At that time, the sister-in-law had just married into the door of the Bai family, and the family processed food every night to sell the next day......
Bai Laosan stood in the middle of the team, Qi Ziyu pinched his shirt tightly, it was too hot in the greenhouse, and Ziyu's face was full of sweat.
"It is said that the rock sugar gourd is sour, and it is a little sweet in the acid, and it is said that the rock sugar gourd is sweet, and there is a little sour ...... in the sweetness", the long-lost memory broke the embankment in this song.
It seems that the voices of Bai Lao Er and Cai Lian joined in, the voices of Bai Chengguang and Ah Yuan joined in, the voices of the children joined in, and the voices of the soldiers joined in......
"It is said that the rock sugar gourd is sour, and it is a little sweet in the acid, and it is said that the rock sugar gourd is sweet, and there is a little sour ...... in the sweetness", to zuihou, repeating and repeating and reluctant to stop, it is these few sentences.
Life is also like a rock sugar gourd, sweet in sour, sweet in sour, as long as you uphold a sincere heart to experience, there are endless beautiful tastes......
The scene was intensified, Qi Ziyu was pushed to the front with red ears and red ears, he didn't know anything, only when he was recuperating from his injuries, the three little nephews often sang a "lullaby" in front of his bed, vague, and he could still remember the tone.
But don't be afraid, the little babies are there to help!
The thin and weak teenager, holding the children's little hands, sang one by one: "Sleep fast, sleep quickly, cute heart baby, sleep quickly, Xiaobao is really beautiful......".
The noisy and noisy soon came to the middle of the night, Wu Lule carried the "little second" to light the firecrackers, and the loud sound of "crackling-" will send away all the joys and sorrows of the old year, and will bring the hope of the new year.
Feng Liqiang delivered an acceptance speech on behalf of the whole group, and then ten people held their own glass prizes with infinite joy, which is the latest high-end object, not to mention crystal clear, and the various styles are also very cute.
Except for the sergeant on duty at night, the rest of the people should have all slept, but how could the excitement after the party be suppressed?
The chatting chess players were all determined to keep vigil on Chinese New Year's Eve, and there was a thin figure who was left alone in the small brick kiln to fiddle with quartz sand.
This is Qi Ziyu, begging his sister to give him a chance to touch the glass material, that prize is so cute, he really wishes he could make one himself.
In fact, Qi Ayuan's art skills are very good, and he is very decent when he paints a few strokes and pinchs something, Qi Ziyu feels that he can also pinch it like it, and he overcame the fear of being alone and locked himself in a small brick kiln.
Ah Yuan roughly told him how to operate, the ready-made raw materials have been configured, no matter how Qi Ziyu is in trouble, finally this baby dares to make a request, but he doesn't dare to refuse!
Qi Ziyu wanted to pinch a white goose with a long neck, he had raised it two years ago, and the goose was very close to him, and then it was sold by his mother......
Quartz sand is very gorgeous mixed in the raw materials, Qi Ziyu carefully pinched it again and again, his neck was broken, and again, his claws were broken, and he pinched it again. (To be continued......)
