Chapter 329: The Idle Chatter of the Women

Wang He's body is a little heavy, she is more than 5 months pregnant, but she is still gritting her teeth and trying to sew a thick Songjiang cloth.

She is Wang Denghai's daughter-in-law, and she is also a member of the quilt group, of course, a veteran team member - she did the earliest sewing and mending work on Niu Island.

She was too soft, so Chen Shangren asked her to be the leader of the quilt group, but she didn't agree, so Chen Shangren had to let his wife, Mrs. Xia, take the lead.

Speaking of which, Wang He's family doesn't have to fight so hard - Wang Denghai is already the leader of the steel group, and his monthly salary is 10 taels of silver, and his family is only three people, so it is enough.

But Wang He felt that his family had only allocated an 800-square-meter homestead on the settlement of Risheng Village, and now he had asked the people of the infrastructure team to start building a house.

The family concept of the Chinese is the heaviest, Wang He has suffered from displacement, and now has his own plot, which is really desperate to build his own house, not to mention that the service group is now a piecework salary, and if she does not work, she only has a poor 2 silver rations, so she begged for life to ask for this job from Mrs. Xia - sewing this "balloon" for Young Master Chu, and she can have 1 tael of silver for her work, which is enough for her to buy several truckloads of bricks!

Of course, such a big "balloon" is not something she can sew down alone, for this matter, Mrs. Xia arranged five people to do it, so that she could make this "balloon" with a diameter of 5 meters in just five days, and now it has entered the final finishing work.

This "balloon" has been repeatedly told by Chu Gongzi that the stitches should be fine, not only that, but each one should be sewn well. You also have to glue a strip of cloth with fish maw on the outside, saying what it is to "prevent air leakage".

No one, including Wang He, knew what Chu Gongzi was doing with such a strange "balloon", but after staying in Niudao for so long, they had long been accustomed to Chu Gongzi's invention of new gadgets - from fairy grass cigarettes to hydraulic forging machines, what was useless? So this "balloon" will definitely be of great use as well! Do it conscientiously according to the requirements of Prince Chu!

Women. Naturally, they are chatting while working, and Zhang's family is short.

"Do you know, the old Chen family who pushed tofu doesn't know what they're doing lately, and I've been hitting his house every day, hey! That's called a stinky! ”

"Stink? It's fragrant! …… It's called tofu milk...... Didn't the man of my family just finish the training, and he came back yesterday and brought me a few small pieces...... Sandwiched in a steamed bun, it's salty and fresh, but it's delicious! ”

"Huh? No way? Is it really made by the old Chen family? ”

"What's the matter, what my man told me...... What to say about the non-staple food group is now limited in manpower. The old Chen family is the only one who makes tofu, and now they don't even get much in their camp...... It's definitely not visible from the outside. ”

"Is it really made by the old Chen family? …… Can it taste good if it stinks like that? I don't believe it! ”

"Sister-in-law of the Guo family," Wang He couldn't help but interject, "Don't you believe it, I've also tasted it, it's really fresh...... I heard Lao Chen say that this tofu was also taught to him by Gongzi, and he said that he wanted to send it...... Anyway, it just makes the tofu moldy. Do you think it smells good? …… It doesn't smell good, but it tastes so good! ”

As soon as she said that Chu Fan made it. Everyone immediately nodded their heads as if they suddenly realized.

"I'll just say, anything in the hands of the son, can be conjured up in new tricks......"

"Since Childe made it, I have to find a way to get some to try...... Let's just say that the pepper that the old man of my family planted for my son, my family can't leave every day now! ”

Listening to her talk about pepper, Wang He's came to the spirit. Stopped the needlework in his hand and asked, "Sister-in-law of the Guo family, do you still have that pepper, get me some more...... Last time, you gave me that little piece of pepper sauce, which made my little flower so spicy that I cried...... Who would have thought that Xiao Nizi would like it more and more later. You have to put a little bit of buns in every meal...... I finished eating it all a few days ago, so I had to chase after me...... The sister-in-law of the Guo family will give me a little more, and I will ask Lao Wang to give you a hoe when I go back. ”

"My eldest sister-in-law," the Guo family's face was bitter, "It's not for me to gnaw, I really can't get out...... Eight experimental fields planted a total of two acres of pepper, cut a stubble, and the son said that all of them should be left to make seeds...... We only made a few handfuls of sauce by sneaking around, and we didn't share them with everyone last time...... Sister-in-law, don't worry, Childe said, he has already divided a few plots of land for us on the opposite island, and when spring begins, let us plant all peppers and tomatoes...... And what kind of corn, my old man is still pondering, I have to wait for the spring to plant it...... That's right, the potatoes that Childe got last time were really good, and the old man of my family just collected a stubble, guess how much he received? ”

When she asked, the four women stopped their hands in unison, stared at each other and asked, "How much?" ”

Seeing that he had successfully gained attention by selling Guanzi, the Guo family proudly stretched out two fingers and said, "Two hundred catties smaller!" ”

"Wow!"

The crowd was in an uproar and began to talk about it.

"God, what kind of thing is this, you can collect more than 100 catties for just one cent?"

"Why does Childe even know how to farm? Where did he get these potatoes? ”

"This is an acre of land, and you can't collect a thousand catties?"

"Are these potatoes delicious?"

The Guo family was even more proud at this time, put down the needle and thread, got up and took their small baggage, took out the boiled potatoes, and each of them divided a way, "It's a little astringent, you can eat it with a little salt foam...... But this thing is really useful, and three or five can fill your stomach. ”

After Wang He took the potato, he peeled the skin and dipped it in some refined salt foam - Duan Laohan's first salt field had already begun to produce salt, and the refined salt had already been openly supplied - after eating two bites, she frowned when she saw one of them eating it, as if she was a little disgusted with the taste of the potato, she seemed to suddenly think of something, sighed and said, "We are thanks to the blessing of our son, and we have eaten all our mouths on this island...... Think about it when we were in Dengzhou, thank God that we had to eat and not starve...... What stinky fish, rotten shrimp, grass roots, and bark have not been eaten, and you dare to pick? …… Even now, there are still many people on both sides of the Sand River who are so hungry that their chests are close to their backs! ”

Speaking of this, she stopped, pointed to the refined salt foam and said, "Let's just say that this refined salt, hundreds of dollars a liter, that is only enjoyed by the big families, when you come to us, a penny and a bag, it is like picking it up for nothing!" ”

The women she said lowered their heads and pondered, especially the one who disliked the potatoes just now, and a faint look of shame flashed on their faces; Wang He also felt that his words were a little heavier, and after eating the potatoes in his hand in three or two bites, he grabbed the needle and thread and said with a smile, "You have to cherish the good days!" Hurry up, finish eating and get to work...... We have to be worthy of Childe's salary, don't we?! (To be continued.) )
