The meeting at Mr. Huang's house was a success, with a family of 20 and men over 10 years old in the hall.

Why should you be over ten years old, because my uncle is only ten years old!

Although the uncle is young and has a high seniority, it is really not good for such a family meeting to leave him.

The women were doing needlework and chatting in the east and west rooms, and they also listened to the movement of the hall. The children couldn't care so much, and happily ate melons and fruits under the trees in the yard and played games.

There is only one theme of the family meeting, the fourth Huang comes to rent a house, the landlord wants to sell it, and Huang Laohan wants to buy it for his fourth son. Thirty-six taels of silver, this is not something that anyone can get, so call the sons to raise funds.

When the fourth child got married, he got the last house in the family, which is the house where Huang Laohan and the others live now.

Huang Laohan was originally going to postpone it for two years and saved money to build a house for the fifth child.

Later, the fourth child went to the town to rent a house, and the fifth child's house has been dragged unbuilt.

Now since the fourth child wants to buy it in the town, the fifth brother's house will not be built, and he can use his fourth brother's house when he gets married in the future.

At the beginning, Huang Laohan came back from going to sea, and built four houses in one slip, all the houses were made of stone, built with porcelain, no accident, it will not collapse for decades of wind and rain, and the average person does not have such a big price to build a house, it is all made of adobe bricks.

The 12 taels of silver prepared for the fifth child to build a house were taken out, and there was still a difference of 24 taels. There are five brothers, except for Huang Laosi, a family of four taels, the fifth Huang Guigui is not married, he is still young, these four taels of Huang Laohan are out for the youngest son.

12+16=28

Huang Laohan subsidized the four sons with two taels, made up thirty taels, and the remaining six taels were solved by the fourth Huang Laigui himself.

Several brothers looked at each other, and the eldest Huang Ronggui said: "The younger brother is still young, and he has not yet started a family, so there is no need to pay this money, and the three of us brothers will share it equally." ”

The second and third children all nodded in agreement, yes, our brothers and three are equally divided.

Huang Laohan waved his hand and took a sip of tea: "Although your brother is young, a brother is a brother, and you can't let him because he is young." He should come out, he must come out, he has no money, doesn't he still have a father. ”

"Besides, this money is not for nothing, and no one's money is blown by the wind. In the future, the fourth child will have to pay back the money he earns, and we have to write this, the fourth brother will pay back the money of the three brothers, and the fourth house will be left to the fifth, and the house in the town will be owned by the two of them, and if they don't pay it back, the house will be public. ”

After speaking, Huang Laohan looked at Huang Laosi, who was still in a state of confusion: "Fourth, what do you say?" ”

Huang Laosi was trembling with excitement, he didn't expect his father to buy him a house in the town. I also planned for him to open a small restaurant.

Buying a house in the town, it was something he never thought about.

He knew that this was his father helping him, his brothers were helping him, thirty-six taels to buy a house, if he was allowed to dig in the field, he would have to earn most of his life. Now that he has bought a house, he has also planned what kind of livelihood he will make, as long as the two of them work hard, they will definitely be able to pay back the brothers' money.

Huang Laosi nodded: "Thank you father, thank you eldest brother and sister-in-law, thank you second brother and second sister-in-law, thank you third brother and third sister-in-law, thank you little brother." I will do a good job and pay back all the money to my brothers. ”

Soon, the villagers knew that the Huang family had bought a house in the town and opened a small restaurant.

This incident simply shocked all the families in the village, you must know that in this era when materials are still very scarce, it is not easy to support a family. Going to the town to buy a house means that Huang Laosi's family has pulled one foot out of the mud.

The Huang family is very calm, and the people who should go to the ground and go to school are like the wind blowing through the lake, causing ripples and quieting down.

Huang Dou accompanied the eldest sister and the second sister to live in the town for more than a week, and the shop opened by the fourth aunt bought breakfast, made fast food at noon, and the main source of customers was the workers on the dock, and there were also night market snacks at night.

The three little sisters went to help the fourth aunt, and came back when the fourth aunt straightened them out.

The opening day is a fair, as soon as the day dawns, the two doors opened on the east courtyard wall are opened, and the firecrackers are set off, which is considered to be open.

The two rooms were whitewashed, and there was a counter to the south, and two jars of loose wine were piled up on the counter. There was a small stove next to the counter with a custom-made pancake.

On each side of the east and west walls are six long tables, each with two benches.

If there are many guests in the same batch, two tables are combined to form a square table.

In the morning, there are hand-rolled noodles, steamed buns and porridge, and fried buns.

The fried buns are made in a pan next to the counter, and when they are fried in one pot, the lid of the pot is lifted, and the house is full of fragrance.

In order to customize this pot, Soybeans almost turned their faces with their uncle. The uncle asked her to make some steamed buns honestly, but the soybeans were unwilling, so she had to customize a frying pan, and it was bigger.

Uncle said: "Do you know how much a pot costs, it needs to be customized, it must be large, and the bottom of the pot must be flat." ”

Huang Dou didn't speak, and went home and asked Huang Tao to prepare flour and prepare raw fried buns.

Steamed vermicelli, chopped green onion and ginger, adjusted pork filling with more fat and less lean meat, and a large spoonful of boiled lard.

Wrap the buns, put them in the pot one by one and fry them in oil, sprinkle with sesame seeds, after they come out of the pot, the aroma is fragrant, and the uncle's mouth is blocked by the fried buns. Huang Laohan went to the town the next day and asked Huang Laosi to customize the cauldron.

There is fast food at noon, and the store only makes three or four seasonal vegetables every day, mapo tofu, braised chicken nuggets, radish meatballs, and fish.

Originally, the uncle also said to add a braised pork, but the soybeans refused, the cost was too high, and she was positioned as a small profit but quick turnover, but the braised pork can be made once a week, regularly and quantitatively.

In the evening, there is no difference from the morning, steamed buns and porridge are fried and fried, but there are guests who want to stir-fry the dishes, order them separately, and there is no fast food at noon.

Huang Dou is only five years old, but she can't have many ideas. Coupled with the yellow peach with good cooking skills and the diligent and steady yellow rice, the three sisters have simply become the right-hand man and brain of the fourth aunt.

On the first day, the business was good, thanks to the publicity of soybeans, she asked her classmates in her uncle's private school to write 60 advertising sheets, at the cost of two fried buns per person.

Twenty were sent to people near the town, twenty to vendors in the market, and twenty to the docks.

A few houses apart, full of pictures and texts, can be roughly understood even if you are illiterate. With the slip, you can get a free fried bun, four, valid on any date.

I really want to send more, the key paper is too expensive, and I really can't afford to publicize it!

Every time there is a fair, the three sisters-in-law of the Huang family take turns, get up early, and rush to the town to help the fourth family. Usually, Huang Lao's fourth daughter-in-law, Du Shi, and Zhang's sister-in-law, who still lives in the West Chamber, are busy.

The house was bought, and Zhang's sister-in-law didn't move out, she helped Huang Laosi's family every day, the rent was free, and she could get a few dollars every month, and she felt that it was a good deal, and everyone was happy.

The fourth girl, Huang Li, was also weaned, and her brother Huang Deli was sent back to Grandma Huang to take care of.

Huang Deli slept in the same bed with his uncle at night, and on the first night, he wet half of his uncle's bed, so angry that his uncle Huang Precious ran to Huangdou's house early in the morning, refusing to go home.

In this way, the uncle lived in Huang Dou's house and squeezed a bed with Huang Delei every night.

Although the two are of different generations, they are of the same age, they have grown up together since childhood, and Huang Delei is one year older than his uncle, so he naturally lets his uncle do everything. The old man stayed for a few days, and felt that he couldn't get happy, so he simply moved all the clothes and covers.

And three-year-old Huang Deli couldn't sleep alone, Huang Laohan and Grandma Huang took a freshly weaned little milk baby at night, and they had to take care of Huang Deli. Within two days, Grandma Huang felt dizzy and sick!

Huang Laosi heard that the villagers who rushed to the market said that his mother was sick, and he was so annoyed that he beat his head, it was him, and the two children were left to his mother to take care of, and his mother was tired and sick.

The two rushed home in a panic and saw their mother lying on the bed, and the second sister-in-law was waiting on the side. The father went to the field, and one of the two children was taken home by the eldest sister-in-law, and the other was taken away by the third sister-in-law.

When Huang Laohan saw that his four sons and his family left their jobs and shops and rushed back, he changed his face, and he didn't leave them to eat, urging them to go back quickly.

"Children, your sister-in-law went to the leading house, and your three sisters-in-law said that they took turns to take the lead, and you don't want to take care of it at home, just take care of things in the shop."

The four went to the eldest sister-in-law's house to see their son, and then went to the third sister-in-law's house to hug their daughter. Originally, I was worried that the child was crying and asking for his father, but the son wanted to go to the river with his brothers to catch fish, but he didn't let him hug him at all, so he was hugged by his eldest brother Huang Deguang and ran away.

The little girl obediently nested in the arms of the third sister-in-law and ate egg custard, and she didn't see her for more than ten days, and the little girl's weaned milk fat was raised again, and her little face was pouting, and she smiled and showed two little white teeth. Du Shi only hugged for a while, and then twisted his body to ask the third aunt to hug.

On the way back, Du Shi cried while walking, and Huang Laosi didn't know how to comfort him, so he just rubbed his hands and said, "Don't cry, the child is small, it's not that he doesn't recognize you." When we get older, we will take it back, raise it for a few days, and kiss again. ”

Du Shi wiped his tears and glanced at Huang Laosi: "You idiot, am I crying this?" I think my life is good, marry into your Huang family, my father and mother are reasonable, and my brother and sister-in-law are harmonious. Do you see that the children ignore us and think I am wronged? Why don't you think it's because the sisters-in-law are good to the children that the children kiss them and don't kiss us. ”

Saying that, Du Shi grabbed Huang Laosi's arm: "Let's make money well, we must be filial to our parents and sisters in the future, and be good to my brothers and sisters-in-law." ”

Huang Laosi looked at his daughter-in-law and only nodded humbly. He remembered that when he first said that he was married, the matchmaker told him about several families, although the daughter-in-law was good-looking, but the appearance outside the family was not the best, but his father and mother agreed and chose Du's.

Mother said that Du's father, brother and sister-in-law are all sensible people, and the neighbors have nothing to say, so that the daughters educated by others will not be bad.

I have to say that my father and mother really have a good vision, and the three sisters-in-law plus the daughter-in-law Du Shi are all well chosen.

It can't be said that there are no shortcomings, but they are not confused in big and small things, unlike the eleventh uncle's family of the same clan, who married three daughters-in-law, and made a lot of trouble every day for trivial things.

Not to mention the big right and wrong, it is a village that knows that cooking less and pulling a green onion, and a child can quarrel if he eats more eggs.

Uncle Eleven's grandchildren are not very promising, and they are similar to a few nephews in the family.

A good daughter-in-law is prosperous for three generations, and the ancients did not deceive me!
