Chapter 829 - Can't Take an Embroidery Needle (One Shift)
As soon as Luo Fengtang was sent away, Uncle Chang Geng's convoy came over.
brought the mountain goods and materials from the other side of the house.
A few new members were also recruited to the transport team to replace the vacancies of Li Da'er.
Among these new members, one is the youngest son of Zheng in the same village, whose full name is Wang Liang.
Wang Liang is Wang Shuzi's cousin, about the same age as Luo Fengtang.
Because he was a little fat when he was a child, everyone called him buns.
Even though Wang Liang is tall and thin now, everyone seems to have forgotten his name and still calls him Baozi.
Yang Ruoqing and Xiaoyu called him Brother Baozi.
"Qing'er, Xiaoyu, this is the wild fruit I picked on the way here, left for the two of you."
After settling everyone, Wang Liang came over to find Yang Ruoqing and Xiaoyu, and handed them the half-blue wild apple by the way.
The two girls each took one and took a bite.
Sweet and sour, with excellent taste, it is a good fruit to quench your thirst in summer.
"Thank you, Brother Baozi." Yang Ruoqing and Xiaoyu thanked him in unison.
Wang Liang scratched his head and smiled.
"You can let me enter the transport team and follow the big guys to make money by securing the goods, I should thank you!" Wang Liangdao.
The transport team was pulled up by Qing'er, and the wages were also paid by Qing'er.
And the last time I went back to the village to select the team members, it was Uncle Chang Gung who picked it, and Xiaoyu was Uncle Chang Gung's daughter.
So I was able to enter the transport team, and Qing'er and Xiaoyu had to be grateful.
Hearing Wang Liang's words, Yang Ruoqing and Xiaoyu glanced at each other and smiled.
Yang Ruoqing said: "Our transportation team selects people, relying on the strength of the team members themselves, rather than going through the back door. ”
"Brother Baozi, since you can come in, it means that you have that strength."
"If you really want to be grateful, then follow the big guys to work hard in the future, and let's make money and make a fortune together!" She said.
Wang Liang nodded vigorously.
"Well, I'll do a good job!"
Yang Ruoqing smiled with satisfaction and took the half basket of green apples in her hand: "I'll take the apples, you talk, I'll go first!" ”
She picked up the apple and hurried back to her house, pounding the apple juice.
Here, Xiaoyu is also going to be busy.
Out of the corner of his eye, he caught a glimpse of a large gap in Wang Liang's sleeve.
"Brother Baozi, I'm afraid your sleeves were pulled there, right? It's a big hole! "Light rain road.
Wang Liang looked down and saw that it was true.
However, his mother and sister-in-law are not around, he is a man, and he can't hold embroidery needles?
What to do?
"Brother Baozi, you take off your clothes and give it to me, and I'll sew it up and send it to you later!" Light rain road.
Wang Liang glanced at Xiaoyu and hesitated a little.
The man is not married to the woman, so let Xiaoyu help him sew and mend his clothes, and people will gossip when it is spread.
Xiao Yuwan smiled, revealing cute tiger teeth.
"Brother Baozi, we don't have so many scruples when we go out!" She said.
"Qing'er often says that the eldest husband is informal, and the brothers in the transport team have torn clothes, and I sew them together with Qing'er and Xiuzhu's sister-in-law, it's nothing!"
Listening to Xiaoyu say this, Wang Liang is not good at twisting anymore.
simply took off his shirt neatly and handed it to Xiaoyu: "Then it will bother Xiaoyu's sister." ”
"It's okay, I'll go back to the house to find a needle and thread."
Xiaoyu laughed again, hugged her clothes and turned to leave.
The two jet-black and beautiful braids crossed a beautiful arc when they turned around, and they left briskly.
Wang Liang looked at the back of Xiaoyu leaving, scratched his head, and turned back to his house to rest.
……
At night, the big guys are chilling out in the yard.
Clean the bluestone slabs, sit or lie down, and each person has a puff fan to repel mosquitoes.
Overhead, there is a large osmanthus tree.
Yang Ruoqing exchanged the pounded wild apple juice into cold boiled water, then added some sugar and stirred well.
Poured into a large clean wooden barrel, there was more than half a barrel.
Then they were carried to the yard, and over there, Xiaoyu and Xiuzhu's sister-in-law came over with two stacks of clean bowls.
Beckon the big guys to drink wild apple juice to cool off.
Everyone was very surprised by this fresh way of eating, and they all rushed over to scoop and drink.
Many men are not used to eating the sour taste of wild apples, but the juice after adding sugar makes them taste endlessly.
Yang Ruoqing also scooped a bowl herself, sat down next to Uncle Chang Geng, and asked him about things at home.
Chang Geng wiped the juice from the corner of his mouth and let out a satisfied sigh.
"Qing'er, your father and mother asked me to tell you that everything is fine at home!"
"The rice harvest in the field this year is good, and before leaving, your mother originally wanted to pound some rice for us to bring you to taste new."
"Later, there were more mountain goods and sundries in the car, and your father stopped you from letting your mother carry Xingu."
"Your father said that next month's Mid-Autumn Festival, if you can spare time, you will go back."
"Your father and your uncle and fourth uncle are planning to celebrate your father's sixtieth birthday!" Chang Gung Road.
Sixty birthdays?
Yang Ruoqing quickly calculated in her heart.
Brother Lobby is twenty years old this year, and Uncle is thirty-eight.
Ye is an uncle born when he was twenty-one years old, and he is just fifty-nine this year.
According to the customs of Changping Village, it has to be done a year in advance, so that it is auspicious.
What's more, the level of medical care in this era is low, and the average life expectancy of people is far less than that of modern times.
Marry early, have children early.
It would be good for the elderly to live to be sixty years old!
Therefore, the 60th birthday is a very important birthday, and people with conditions will do it in a big way.
Poor families, borrowing from east to west have to go through the motions.
Today's saints rule the world with filial piety, and the older the elderly, in the clan and in the village, they are very prestigious.
After the 60th birthday, they all have to come to visit in the village and give gifts to express their gratitude.
On such a cautious day, as a granddaughter, she must take the time to go back!
Wait a minute!
She suddenly realized a question and asked Chang Gung busily.
"Uncle Chang Geng, what did you just say? My fourth uncle proposed? My fourth uncle is back? She asked.
Chang Geng was drinking the second bowl of apple juice, and before he could answer, he was rushed back by Wang Liang on the side.
"Speaking of your fourth uncle, he is now famous in the village!" Wang Liangdao.
"Didn't he disappear for more than half a month last time and couldn't find anyone, this time he not only came back, but also made money!" He said.
"Huh? What's going on? Brother Baozi, you say be careful. Yang Ruoqing said.
Wang Liang said: "I don't know too much about the specific situation, and my father doesn't know much. ”
"Ask your fourth uncle what he is doing outside, he didn't say anything, he said that he stopped a job outside, and he was the head of a small steward."
"When I came back this time, I took your fourth aunt and three cousins to the town to rip clothes, go down to the restaurant, and buy a lot of things for your grandmother......"
Yang Ruoqing was stunned when she heard this.
Fourth uncle, this is the rhythm of making a fortune!
can make so much money in half a month, and he is also a steward, which is really stepping on **** luck.
It's just that if you don't say what you're doing, it shouldn't be a crooked path, right?
