Chapter 280: The deposit is in a hurry
On the first day of going to town, the father and daughter went empty-handed with the silver in their arms.
When he returned, the silver in his arms was gone, but he brought back a cart of things.
The car was hired, and it fell off halfway through, and it took a long time to get home.
The bed at home was also sent over today, and it looks like it was seen in the shop in the town, and it was Hu Dada next door who was invited.
Hu Bei's carving skills are good, and the flowers and plants carved on the bed made for the Lan family are much more exquisite than those made by others.
Looking at these new and tangible things, Lan Xiaoqing couldn't be happier.
She put the freshly popped quilt and the newly bought pillow on the head of the bed, and jumped on it with a bang.
Lan Erlang stood by and watched, and jumped.
Hurriedly gave birth to his hands to help: "You take it easy, don't bump into it." ”
Lan Xiaoqing called twice: "It's so comfortable, Dad, I haven't slept in such a soft bed for a long time." ”
Before, Lan Xiaoqing and Lan Erlang were poor and slept on a pure wooden bed, Lan Erlang felt sorry for her and gave her the only pillow in the house.
The pillow was still made of rice husks, and when I moved my head at night, the rice husks in the pillow would rattle.
Now that she has made money, Lan Xiaoqing simply replaced the pillow with a cotton core.
Ordinary people's beds are also cushioned with straw, and she directly laid a cotton mattress on it.
At first, Lan Erlang disagreed, because it was undoubtedly a huge expense.
So he insisted on using the best for his daughter, and he still did it as usual.
But Lan Xiaoqing successfully persuaded him with a sentence of 'Dad doesn't need it, then I don't need it'.
Beds, mattresses, quilts and pillows are just a few of them, and there are many on their list, such as tables, chairs, blankets, cupboards, plates, saucers, chopsticks, teapots, teacups, etc.
These all cost money.
And Lan Xiaoqing didn't choose the cheapest kind, so in this way, these software facilities at home alone had to remove a full fifteen taels of silver.
What is the concept of fifteen taels of silver?
For the previous Lan family, this huge sum of money was unimaginable, even now, their father and daughter could only earn fifteen taels of silver if they didn't eat, drink or sleep for a month.
If you encounter bad weather, if you don't make pig's trotters that day, you will naturally lose your income if you don't do it.
But fortunately, in the first two months, the father and daughter ate cornmeal every day, saved a sum of money, and sold the recipe for pork skin jelly for twenty taels.
Otherwise, even if the new house is built, it will be empty and nothing can be added.
When there was a problem with the hired car today, Lan Xiaoqing also mentioned it, saying that she would buy a mule cart or donkey cart by herself, so that it would be more convenient to travel or do business in the future than now.
Lan Erlang is naturally in favor.
However, a brand-new donkey cart will cost a dozen taels of silver, and a mule cart will be cheaper, but it will not be less than eight taels.
In this case, the family's savings will be quickly drained.
Thinking of this, Lan Erlang began to be a little anxious.
As soon as he was in a hurry, he wrote everything on his face.
Lan Xiaoqing sat up from the bed when she saw that her father looked worried: "Dad, what's wrong?" I'm still worried about the people in the village telling you about kissing. ”
Mentioning this matter, Lan Erlang was troubled again, and said angrily: "Tomorrow, I will write a sign and stand at the door, and write the four big words 'refuse to say kiss'." ”
Lan Xiaoqing smiled: "Useless father, most people are illiterate." ”
