Chapter 287: Sending Sweet Potatoes
My old watch moved out two days ago, and I have cleaned the house for you, and I know that you can't look at the old furniture in the house, and you can move in. ”
"Then I have to trouble Uncle Sun, do you know a carpenter who specializes in furniture?" Mu Xiu thought about it and asked, although Mu Shui can also do some carpentry work, but it is not very professional, this carpentry is meticulous work, and the carpentry work in such a big house is not something he can do alone, and things in the village are inseparable from Mu Shui......
Just spend some money to find a special person to do it, and if you are not satisfied, let Mushui accept and transform it.
"Yes, you see that the tables, chairs and cabinets in my store are all made for me by a small fee, and the small money is not only good craftsmanship, but also the price is reasonable."
"That's a good feeling, it's him." Mu Xiu felt that it was really convenient to have an acquaintance in the city at this time.
"Let's go, I'll take you there, and he'll live in the alley opposite." Sun Xingfu wiped his hands and took Mu Xiu to find Xiao Qian.
When he arrived at Xiaoqian's house, Sun Xingfu left after a brief introduction, Mu Xiu took Xiaoqian and went to the newly bought house, measured the size, ordered two beds and two cabinets, as well as tables and chairs in the hall.
There are two small rooms on the left and right of the hall, and it is necessary to make partitions again, and Xiao Qian knows the person who built the house, but simply makes two walls, and the project is not big, and all of them are handed over to Xiao Qian to deal with.
Mu Xiu did all this, and then rushed back home on his bicycle.
"The cellar is full of sweet potatoes, and there is no place for radishes and cabbage." After Mu Xiaocao came out of the cellar, he said to Mu Xiu.
Mu Xiu patted her head, she was busy all day, she forgot all about the sweet potato, because it was not easy to plant anything in the wasteland, she could only grow sweet potatoes, but she didn't expect this sweet potato to be a bumper harvest.
Zhou Shuilian and Mu Xiaocao were injured by eating sweet potatoes in those years, and since they have food to eat, they rarely eat sweet potatoes.
These sweet potatoes are just thrown in the cellar, and they are used to feed the pigs and chickens on weekdays, and the pigs eat very happily, but there are only two pigs at home, and no matter how much they can eat, they can't finish the sweet potatoes in the cellar.
"Sister, why don't we give this sweet potato to those families in the village who don't have enough food to eat." Mu Xiu proposed that she originally planned to make a few sweet potatoes to eat, but now there are too many sweet potatoes at home, and she doesn't have time, so she is in a hurry to make a cellar, so she can only send some out first.
"Who is still short of food in the village now, this sweet potato is also grown with hard work, otherwise, let's go get a few more pigs to raise." Zhou Shuilian also came up with an idea.
"Mother, that sweet potato, even if you raise ten more pigs, you can't eat it all!" Mu Xiaocao said angrily, this mother, I really don't understand, let's be stingy, I am willing to give the food and clothing to outsiders, let's be generous, why is this little sweet potato that no one eats still a baby.
"Those in the village who did not divide the land last year are not having a good time this year, I heard from the village party secretary that these people's families have run out of food very early, and they went to the village to block him from borrowing grain to eat." Mu Xiu thought of these things that Chen Xiangyang said to her when she met Chen Xiangyang who was frowning two days ago.
"That's not, most of these people are the people who like to be lazy and grind foreign workers when they earn work before, so they don't want to accept the division of the land, just those of them, they can survive until now, it's already good, according to me, they are also self-inflicted." Zhou Shuilian said with some indignation.
At these words, Mu Xiaocao also nodded, it is indeed so.
"Forget it, folks, since our family can't finish eating so much, let's send it out, it's better to feed people than to feed the livestock." Mu Shui was weaving a bamboo basket in the yard, and suddenly looked up and said.
"Okay, okay, I can't say you guys, I just thought that our faith was planted with hard work, but I have to go to those who are too lazy to eat, and I feel uncomfortable." Zhou Shuilian said unwillingly.
"Just this time, the village party secretary said that the land will be divided immediately, and at that time, those people will be hungry and unable to eat, and it will have nothing to do with us, otherwise if we don't send it out, our radish and cabbage will not be put in the land, will it be rotten in the ground?" Mu Xiu reassured.
Zhou Shuilian thought about it and nodded in agreement.
Mu Xiu put the cart at the mouth of the cellar, and several people were busy moving most of the sweet potatoes in the cellar, and the yard was almost full of sweet potatoes.
"I said show, how can you give this sweet potato to others?" Zhou Shuilian wiped the sweat from her head and asked.
The sweet potatoes at home have been harvested 8,000 catties, these sweet potato cellars have not been able to put down, and there are a lot of piles in the yard and the room where the grain is stored, but the last time there was a fire, they were all burned down, and now the remaining sweet potatoes are about 5,000 catties, and now they only have some left, and the yard is about 4,000 catties.
Fortunately, when Mu Xiu's family built a new house, the cellar was dug large and strong according to Mu Xiu's requirements, otherwise the general cellar would not be able to store so many things.
"I'll go to the village party secretary and ask him to broadcast it, and let those people come to our house to get it."
After Mu Xiu finished speaking, he went to find Chen Xiangyang, Chen Xiangyang couldn't help but be overjoyed when he heard Mu Xiu's words, he praised Mu Xiu again and again: "Mu Xiu, I know that your family is good-hearted, but if you take out so much, is your family's food enough to eat?" ”
"If it's enough, then please trouble the village party secretary to tell everyone, and go to my house to get what you need, otherwise there will be too much, and we won't have the energy to send it to everyone." Mu Xiu said.
"Okay, I'll go to your house after I'll broadcast."
"Okay."
As soon as Chen Xiangyang's radio was broadcast, the whole village was boiling, and everyone thought that they had heard it wrong, until someone came out with sweet potatoes from Mushui's house, and the rest of the people were like waking up from a big dream, and they all picked up the bamboo baskets at home, carried baskets, and rushed towards Mushui's house.
"Come in line one by one, and they all have a share." Chen Xiangyang was the first to arrive at Mushui's house, when there was a table in front of him with pens and paper on the table, and behind him were sweet potatoes piled high, and there was a scale next to the sweet potatoes.
"Hey, the fourth family, your family has enough food to eat, why are you here?" Chen Xiangyang saw a woman in the queue and couldn't help but name it.
"Hey, isn't my family also not enough food to eat, why, everyone can get this sweet potato, but my family can't get it?" The fourth daughter-in-law looked at everyone looking at her, and couldn't help blushing at first, and then argued loudly.
"Your family is not enough to eat, other people's families have long run out of food, don't add to the chaos, go on one side, and come over from behind." Chen Xiangyang said with a sigh of relief.
