Chapter Seventy-Four: The House and the Pine (Part II)
Gui Wuyi was stunned, and finally took back the eight taels of silver, but his expression was dazed, and his chest was a little blocked inexplicably.
More than a dozen taels of silver, in the eyes of the people in the village, is a large amount, but can you buy the books brought back by Gui Chongyang? Can't buy it back at all. Gui Chongyang not only did not cherish himself and shared it with Gui Wu, but also gave him many books for the children's exam, as well as the test-taking skills taught by the previous teacher. The central meaning of this is not something that can be exchanged for a dozen taels of silver.
Gui Chongyang spread his hands, he told the truth that he didn't mean to provoke, after all, it was a family, and it was better to be considerate of each other. Yang's heart disease is both these two carts of pine, so it is good to "prescribe the right medicine".
is blocked in his heart, but Gui Wu is not the only one.
Yang sat in the second landlord's compartment, thumping his arms and sulking.
Yang is not afraid of being tired, but he is afraid of anger.
It was two carts of pine, not two, pine as a girder, and even the wood for purlins, doors and windows were prepared, a full set of pine. When such a house is built, it can be passed on to many generations.
Yang just thought about building a house at home in the future, and he didn't dare to think about a full set of pine wood.
The same is the old house, the two-bedroom house is just repairing and replacing the doors and windows, but the old house is all rebuilt, which is not to say anything, after all, the old house is dilapidated, and there is no need to repair it, but the restart is a restart, and it is another thing to build a full set of pine wood.
Such a set of houses is expensive, and those with poplar can build two sets.
The eldest son didn't say that he would give his elders a pension in the future, and he would not be separated; After the youngest son gets married, he will definitely split up, but the house has not yet been seen.
Gui Wu, the uncle of the in-law, built a house for the cousin who was separated from the room, but he forgot that he also had a second nephew of the in-law!
Seeing the two carts of pine wood just now, Yang almost blew up his lungs, and it was really difficult to restrain him, so he came back first under the pretext of the heat.
Xiao Chongyang is a good child, and it is pitiful for the long house to have no others, but there is no such help for others. Although Gui Chongyang said that he bought two carts of pine wood from Gui Wu, the Yang family was not a fool. If he really entrusted him to buy it, why didn't he reveal the slightest movement?
Yang knew in his heart that no matter how much Gui Wu spended, it was Gui Wu's money, and it had nothing to do with him, but when he thought about the hard days of these years, he still couldn't help but redden.
Yang lay down for a long time, but when it was time for dinner, he still got up.
The whole family helped in the old house, but Gui's second grandfather did not go over. First, it is all manual work over there, and Gui's second grandfather can't do it when he is old; The second is that Gui's second grandfather has a high seniority, and the young people can't let go of it in the past.
When he arrived in the kitchen, he saw that the Jiang family was there, and the Yang family couldn't help but feel a little awkward.
Jiang Shi only didn't see it, and said with a smile: "Sister-in-law is not comfortable, so I will lie down and try my craftsmanship for dinner today." ”
Yang's face was full of disbelief.
Jiang pushed Yang out with a smile and said, "Sister-in-law, don't worry, nothing else, noodles will always be cooked." ”
Yang smiled reluctantly, and let Jiang go.
Jiang first adjusted the sesame paste, and then cooked most of the dragon beard noodles according to three servings. After sending one of the large bowls to the upper room, Jiang went to Yang's house with the remaining two bowls of noodles. Mei Duo is not there, there is a market in the town today, and I followed Aunt Zhang to the town to send embroidery.
On the dinner plate, in addition to two bowls of noodles and egg marinade, there are also shredded radish, garlic sprouts, blanched soybean sprouts and shredded fungus. Red, green, yellow, black, look colorful.
Yang was quite surprised, and sincerely praised: "My brother and sister are clever, and this must not be wrong."
Jiang said: "This knife is coarse, where is the sister-in-law a little exquisite, that is, his own family eats a bite." ”
The dragon beard noodles that have passed through the water, plus four kinds of dishes, are poured with a spoon of adjusted sesame paste, and you will be appetizing when you look at it. Rao is Yang was depressed for a long time, and at this moment he also had an appetite, and even ate a few bites and said: "I have also eaten water surface at home before, but I never thought of using sesame paste to make marinade directly. ”
Jiang smiled and said, "If you like it, sister-in-law will eat a few more bites." Speaking of this, he paused and said, "If you don't know how to start, I'll go to the front yard with my mother-in-law, and my sister-in-law will rest at home for a few days." ”
Yang hurriedly waved his hand and said, "Forget it, this is all in ambush, the kitchen work is smoky, how can you stand it?" I rested for a long time, and I have recovered. ”
Jiang's health is not good, Mei Duo is a daughter, and the two who go to the front yard to cook are Gui's second grandmother and Yang and Mei. But Gui's second grandmother is old, and Mei's is an embroidery girl, and her hands have always been fine, and many kitchen jobs are not easy to do, so it is still Yang's who is in charge of the spoon over there.
The meals of the young and strong in their twenties, two meals a day, even if they are all big pot dishes, are tiring enough. Yang said that he was a little suffering from heat stroke, but he was not completely pretending to be sick, but he was really tired in the past few days.
Jiang said: "Sister-in-law has worked hard, when the old house is built, I have to let Xiao Chongyang thank my sister-in-law." ”
Yang waved his hand and said, "It's just a trick of strength, what's the point?" I can't help anything else. ”
The two of them were talking, but the slightly stiff atmosphere before was removed a lot.
In the final analysis, the Yang family is not completely confused, but it involves two sons, so she can't think about it for a while, and she has been annoyed and annoyed now, and she has cried, and she herself is a little embarrassed.
At this time, I heard someone outside the window: "Is my sister-in-law there?" The fourth sister is also in the sister-in-law's house, right? ”
Yang was a little uncomfortable, got up and said to the window: "Here, the front yard is busy?" How did this point come back? ”
Gui Wu didn't see the outside, came in directly, handed Yang two packets of herbs first, and said: "These are the two medicines that I just went to Song's house to grab, both of which are to cure heat and heat, and my sister-in-law boiled them and ate them." ”
Yang only felt that his face was hot, and he took the herbs, and he was a little at a loss, and it was normal for the Zhuang family to be cold and hot, and how many people would drink medicine when they went there?
Gui Wu didn't seem to see it, took out a few pieces of silver from his sleeve pocket, handed it to the Jiang family, and said, "This is the eight taels of pine money that Chongyang supplemented, you take it first." ”
Although the Jiang family was exquisite, although they didn't know what kind of lawsuit this "pine wood money" was, they had Yang's previous discomfort, and they guessed a little, so they followed her husband's words and said: "How much money did you spend in total?" You are an uncle, since Chongyang has entrusted you, you can be careful and help the child save some money. ”
These words are in line with Gui Chongyang's previous rhetoric.
Yang was stunned when he heard this, and his face showed a little sneer.
Gui Wu has been secretly paying attention to Yang's reaction, and when he saw this, he sighed in his heart, but he only said normally on his face: "Looking for Lao Zhao to buy it, can it still be expensive?" Two carts of pine wood, originally 16 taels of silver, look at my face is a 9% off, 14 taels 6 cents 4 cents. The poplar that was pulled back, one hundred and fifty yuan, four taels and five dollars of silver, and there was still a difference of ten taels and a few cents. Chongyang's kid is a person who doesn't like to take advantage, I only said that there is a difference of eight taels, and this will not be settled immediately for eight taels of silver? There's no way to take him, you don't have to say it. ”
Yang stood beside him, embarrassed to look at Gui Wu, but his ears were stunned.
Listen to this clearly, and know that the two cars of poplar wood were indeed bought by Gui Chongyang and Gui Wu, and the Yang family was ashamed and embarrassed.
As for the two taels of silver in the middle, isn't that what an uncle should make up for? It would be strange if Gui Wuyi had a lot of money to collect Gui Chongyang.
If it weren't for the presence of Gui Wu and his wife, Yang would have been eager to scrape his ears.
Thinking that when she left, Gui's second grandmother's face was not good, and Yang couldn't stand still, so he threw the medicine bag to the side and said, "It's just hot for a while, just steal for a long time and be lazy, I'll go to the front yard, I don't have to worry about it without me in charge......"
Gui Wu and the Jiang couple glanced at each other, and when they saw their husbands frowning, Jiang comforted: "Be more considerate, it's not easy for my sister-in-law to ...... over the years."
