Chapter 11 Stuff
Yuan Dashuo probed the temperature of Yuan Cheng's forehead, and when he saw that it was okay, he also got up and went out to fetch water.
Previously, Yuan Dashuo and Yuan Laoshi, the two main laborers, were not at home, and the two big boys of Yuanjinbao and Yuanwu couldn't get much water, barely enough for daily cooking and washing.
Of course, this washing refers to the two elders of the Yuan family and the pair of noble twins.
The two concubines and the other children scrubbed their bodies every few days.
On weekdays, their second room is fine, at least they will wash their faces and feet before going to bed every day.
On the other side of the big room, it seems that he has even skipped washing his face and feet, and only scrubs his body every once in a while.
So this time the men in each room are back, of course, they can be washed cleaner.
Yuan Dashuo hasn't come back for a long time, and when he went home at this time, he was happy to see his wife and children, full of energy and enthusiasm.
When he went out here, Yuan Wu unpacked the medicine bag tied into a stack, took out a medicine and went out of the room, and went to find Wen excitedly.
Yuan Man and Yuan Xiu are tidying things up.
The two sisters exclaimed in surprise when they saw the contents of the open baggage, and they were both excited and happy.
I saw two big burdens.
One was filled with cotton, and with the stack of cloth of various colors on the bed, their winter coat was now gone.
The other is a small bag, and two large bags of oiled paper wrapped in something, fragrant.
Yuan Man and Yuan Xiu glanced at each other, both swallowed their saliva in unison, and then opened a copy and looked at it, which was the meat patty that Yuan Dashuo said.
The two sisters looked at each other again, and saw joy and greed in each other's eyes.
Tonight, because Yuan Dashuo and Yuan Laoshi came back, the dinner portion was quite sufficient, and they were full for seven or eight minutes.
These should be kept on the table to eat when there is little food, but because they are greedy, their father also said that they can eat if they want!
So Yuan Xiu didn't resist the gluttony, and carefully took out a piece of meat patty that was not as big as their palm, divided it into three parts, and carefully handed it to Yuan Man, and she kept a smaller piece for herself.
Yuan Man didn't refuse, the seasonings for food here are limited, the Yuan family's meals are indeed very ordinary, and she can't refuse the rare fragrant meatloaf.
So the two sisters cherished the small piece of meatloaf in their hands and finished it.
At this time, there is only one word in my heart to describe!
It's incense!
Although the name of the meat patty is meatloaf, the filling inside is not only jerky, but also chopped nuts, and I don't know what it is made of, similar to the texture of lotus paste wrapped in jerky, chopped nuts, and it is salty and delicious to chew.
Yuan Man moved his cheeks and savored it, reluctant to let the food in his mouth swallow.
glanced at his sister, and his mouth didn't stop, obviously too.
Yuan Xiu put away another small piece of cake, and the two sisters clapped their hands and continued to look.
In fact, the cake does not fall off the slag, and the crust is fluffy on the inside and a little the outside.
The filling inside is also very sticky and wrapped, not the loose one.
It's just a habitual action left over from the simple love of cleanliness.
The other package looked at it was a brown sugar cube, the color was dull and I felt sweet when I looked at it, and the portion was a lot, Fang Cai's meat patty Yuan Dashuo said that there were three catties, and this brown sugar was also three catties, which was enough for their family to eat and drink for a while.
But the two sisters didn't touch the brown sugar, just because they knew the body of their little brother Yuan Cheng, and they all wanted to leave it for him to eat.
Yuan Man even thought about it, just plant some ginger in the Shennong space, and then he could cook some brown sugar ginger soup for Yuan Cheng, which would warm his body.
The last bag is a small baggage, which is a few miscellaneous things, including Yuan Dashuo's change of clothes, and a few good-looking red head ropes, which I know at a glance that they are for the two daughters, and some needles and threads, which are also needed at home, and Yuan Xiu is very happy.
The work she took on to embroider purses, cloth and needlework were all prepared in other stores, and she only needed to do a good job and return them, and then make a net profit of one penny to three pennies.
So although there are a lot of needles and threads at home, they are not their own, they want to sew something or are missing, this time Yuan Dashuo bought it back, and Yuan Xiu was naturally happy.
All that's left is the stack of fabric.
The color Yuan Dashuo chose for himself is quite low-key.
After dismantling it, there is a large piece of indigo cloth, which should be the clothes worn by their father and son, and it is not easy to get dirty if it is not eye-catching.
There is also an apricot fabric, a lotus pink fabric, a pale cyan fabric, and an ochre red fabric.
The first three must be the two sisters plus the younger son, and the latter is a slightly low-key red, unassuming, quite suitable for Wen's.
None of these fabrics are a whole horse, and it is estimated that they can make a set of clothes.
That's enough, too.
After reading everything, the two sisters were so happy that they couldn't see their teeth.
There are just a few simple things, there is nothing to classify and put in place, but Yuan Dashuo is happy to let the two daughters dismantle it by hand.
Yuan Xiu re-folded the fabric and tied it up, and placed it next to the bed against the wall.
Yuan Man re-tied the small burden with the mess and handed it to her, and Yuan Xiu put the little burden on the cloth.
The other brown sugar and meatloaf are still tied in the big bag, and when needed, take them and place them together against the wall.
There was a bunch of things neatly placed on the side of the bed against the wall.
They don't have a box in their room, that's all they have to do.
The last thing was the new futon, and I just had to wait for the two sisters to take a shower before untying the rope and making the bed.
The new quilt is very big and thick, and it is warm to look at, if it weren't for the dust on his body, Yuan Man would want to throw himself into the quilt and lie down for a while.
Now that the new quilt is back, there are two sets of quilts on Yuan Cheng's side that can be folded and covered, which is warmer.
The bed on his side was relatively small, and could only sleep two people, and it was usually Yuan Dashuo or Wen who slept with him, and spent the middle of the night investigating his condition or taking care of him.
The couple slept very honestly, so there was no air conditioning in the quilt over and over again, Yuan Cheng couldn't stand the cold, otherwise it would be another serious illness.
When the two sisters packed up their things, Yuan Cheng was still sleeping soundly, and if it wasn't for Yuan Man confirming that he didn't have a high fever again, her heart would almost be high.
Yuan Dashuo went and came back quickly, but it was their father's little tail Yuan Wu who came back to let the two sisters wash up.
So Yuan Man didn't delay, and after taking the change of clothes with Yuan Xiu, he was taken by Yuan Xiu and took a bath.
The place where the Yuan family bathes is not fixed.
Sometimes it is in each room, but it is also in the small side room of the east wing.
The door opened to the courtyard over there is a place where firewood is usually placed, commonly known as a firewood house.
On weekdays, the Yuan family scrubs inside, and if you want to wash in a wooden tub, you go to the kitchen.
Yuan Man followed Yuan Xiu to the kitchen, at this time the weather was cold, and the kitchen was going to be warmer.
