Chapter 44: A New Home
The two-entry house is divided into a front yard and a back yard.
The walls are of brick and stone, very sturdy, and the houses are similar to most of the houses in Mayi, built rough and tall, neither new nor old, and it seems that they can last for many years.
The room is too much for Li Po and Li Chun, so naturally there is no need to live in one room.
It's just that the house is too big, and it looks empty when two people live in...... And there are not many traces left by the owner in front of him, and there are not many furnishings, so the two of them need to add them themselves.
Of course, the most satisfying thing for Li Po is the kitchen, the house is big, just this advantage, you can have a serious room, and the former owner of this house has set up two stove rooms, a big stove and a small stove.
Obviously, the large stove was for the servants, and the master used the small stove.
The cooking utensils in the room have long been complete, all of which he and Li Chun have brought over these days, although they are all half-new, and they don't look like a housewarming at all, but they are cheap and complete.
And Li Po also wants to find a blacksmith, get an iron pot out, and always eat steamed things, although it is also delicious, but stir-frying is actually more convenient and faster and has more tricks.
In fact, one large and one small pair have their own plans for new homes.
Li Chun is going to plant some grain and vegetables in the yard, of course, it may be better to plant some flowers and plants to decorate, but the two guys who have just escaped from extreme poverty are not as idle and elegant, just busy with food, clothing, housing and transportation.
Li Chun also plans to raise some chickens and ducks to lay eggs to eat.
Li Po agrees with this idea, chickens and ducks can not only lay eggs, but also eat meat, he doesn't care about the messy rules of the times, chickens and ducks are done well, and they are definitely the top delicacy in meat.
Of course, the pork that people hated at the time was also on top of Li Po's recipe, and it was still ranked high.
However, Li Po has been eating cattle and sheep for many years, and he really doesn't know if he will spit it out when he smells the smell of pork.
The first thing for the two guys to live in a new house is to think about food, and I have to say that it is not a family that does not enter the door......
Of course, in addition to eating and drinking, Li Po also pondered that he wanted to get a warm road.
After being frozen for half a winter, he had enough of the cold, and the matter of heating was also a big deal in his heart.
The warm road, supplemented by the ondol, plus the stove, no matter how cold the winter, is not afraid of freezing.
This project is quite small, and it still needs to be worked on by him.
The rooms of the two are next to each other, and they are naturally the main rooms with excellent lighting, the bedding and everything are also bought, and the clothes on their bodies are also new.
Walking in Mayi City, no one will be able to see that these two people were still displaced people before.
To live in such a large house, a domestic servant is actually indispensable.
This is the residential area of serious wealthy families in the city of Mayi, and most of the surrounding houses are the houses of county officials, and the officials are not big, but they all have their own pomp.
If you want to be in harmony with your neighbors, if you don't pay attention to it, you won't be able to blend in with your surroundings.
But the two of them didn't care about this, the miserable life they just got out of couldn't pay attention to it at all, and they didn't think about having too much contact with the people around them for the time being.
Among the homeless, there are indeed lonely men and women, as long as Li Po opens his mouth and is a slave and a servant, he is also willing.
But Li Po didn't bring any of them, because he thought more.
If you want to have a better life, you need to completely cut off the section of the homeless.
Even if he can't cut it clean, he should try to stay away from it, this is where he is ruthless and indifferent, and it is also a bit wise and far-sighted......
Whether others know his past or not is someone else's business, but he understands the truth and doesn't do it, that is his own stupidity.
After living in a new house, I was not happy for many years, and both of them felt a little empty, which was the effect of confusion about the future and the future.
In the evening, Li Po called Li Chun to him and asked, "Follow me into the county government to do things, or stay at home?" ”
This kid is very talented, and at a young age, he has endured all kinds of hardships, and in a few years, he will be able to make an excellent warrior, and even in the future, he will probably be blue.
But alas...... The boy turned into a girl, which made Li Po quite entangled, so on this day, he simply handed over the multiple-choice questions to Li Chun himself.
Going to the county government with him naturally means that she will learn things that the women next to her can't learn, and her future life must be different from the women next to her, and it is difficult to say clearly the gains and losses, otherwise, Li Po would not have thrown this burden to Li Chun.
And if you stay at home, it will be much simpler, the male protagonist is outside, the female protagonist is inside, and you will find a mother-in-law to marry in the future.
Li Chun's answer, in fact, was expected by Li Po, the child raised his head without hesitation, "Naturally, follow the eldest brother, what are you doing at home?" The house can't run away, so tomorrow, Xiaochun will go to the human market and ask them to get a few dogs to take care of our home. ”
She was quite thoughtful.
Li Po rubbed her head and said with a smile: "Don't regret it in the future...... Well, the county government is not as good as the human city, there may not be vicious dogs, but there are many wicked people, at the beginning of our store, what I said to other people, do you remember? ”
Like a kitten, Li Chun rubbed on Li Po's palm, squinted his eyes very comfortably, and then only thought about it slightly, and said, "Remember...... Eat with your head down, look up at the road, do more and talk less, the eldest brother doesn't want to listen to the short ...... of those parents"
"Well, just remember, when you get to the county government, you have to abide by other people's rules...... People who work hard and talk less will always be more likable. ”
Li Chun was a little worried, she was sold to a big family since she was a child, and there was a psychological shadow, "Big brother, let's go there, will someone beat us for no reason?" ”
Li Po pursed his lips, this dead child, if you don't want to be good, you always want bad, and it's your side to be beaten.
I was dissatisfied, and I couldn't help but threaten: "It's not impossible for someone to bully us when we first arrive, or ...... Do you stay at home? ”
"No, no, no." Li Chun's head suddenly shook into a rattle.
"What if someone beats us?"
"Big brother will do what he says."
"There are big people in the county government, and if you fight, you can only endure it, are you still going?"
"Go."
"Hehe, as the old saying goes, the hardships of eating are the best people, and you can't bear this bit of hardship, let's go out of the city and enter the mountains as soon as possible, and we can still have a good time, don't you say?"
"Big brother said it so well...... But...... We've had a lot of hard work. ”
Li Po, "......"
