Chapter 56: Baby

Let's not talk about the firewood knife, they are young and can not hold it.

Whoever has a firewood knife now, it's very precious.

Like their house, there are only two sickles.

Other iron-related things were handed in for iron-making years ago.

Even when my sister-in-law came to their house, the original iron lock on the box that my father gave me was removed and handed in.

That time, for this matter, Xiuchun once secretly saw her sister-in-law hiding in the corner and wiping her eyes.

When she entered the kitchen, Xiuchun saw the second sister pulling her sister-in-law away from the stove with a painful face.

Looking at the batter in the porcelain basin, Xiuhua didn't know what to say about her sister-in-law.

I didn't pay attention just now, and my sister-in-law scooped a big spoonful of flour into the black noodle bag.

Then after pouring the water, I felt that it was thin again, so I scooped half a scoop and poured it into the porcelain basin.

With so much black noodles, if they want to change to before, they can eat it for half a year!

"Sister-in-law, you better light the fire!

I'll just do the cooking. ”

Looking at Tranquility's innocent expression, Xiuhua's chest was blocked, and she waved her hand with a headache to drive her to the fire.

It's just that the gas stove has been burned quietly, and she has also used the induction cooker.

This earthen stove was burned with firewood, and she looked completely dry.

You must know that in her time, even if it was a farmhouse, people used to cook vegetables on a fierce stove.

Moreover, she usually just goes to eat, where will the earthen stove be lit and how to burn have ideas?

As far as Chunxiu carried the firewood into the kitchen, Tranquility had already lit four or five matches with him.

It's just that every time I take those firewood points, before I light them, the matches are about to burn in my hands.

Xiuchun saw the matches thrown on the ground, stomped his feet anxiously, and trotted forward.

didn't care about her always introverted personality, and said anxiously: "Sister-in-law, our family just has such a box of matches." ”

"What?"

Tranquility was stunned by Xiuchun's words, and in such a stunned time, the freshly lit match in his hand was also extinguished at once.

She subconsciously looked at the matchbox she had just pulled out of a hole in the middle of the two stoves.

I saw that there were not many matches in the matchbox, and now there are only ten left.

Xiuchun saw that the match in Ningning's hand was extinguished again, and she was distressed, so she was bold and stepped forward to bring the box of matches.

"Sister-in-law, I'll light the fire!"

She peeked at the remaining matches in the matchbox, took one out like a baby, gently wiped the body of the box, and then neatly took the firewood that she had just brought in, quickly lit it, and stuffed it into the stove hole.

For the first time, Tranquility felt a little at a loss, the match was too far away from her.

After all, she doesn't have much exposure to these things.

Even where fire is needed, there are lighters.

That kind of plastic lighter costs a dollar, which is convenient and cheap.

It's just that, looking at Xiuchun's appearance as such a precious match, is this thing a scarce commodity here?

Xiuhua stirred the flour and looked up just in time to see Tranquility staring at the matchbox in the third sister's hand.

"This match costs 2 cents a box, because every family has to use it, and sometimes the town has not sold it, so the third sister will be in a hurry."

She glanced at the matches on the ground, bit her lip, and looked at her sister-in-law with some incomprehension.

My sister-in-law didn't know about these things, why did she have such a surprised expression?
