Chapter Seventy-Seven: Eating Together
That's what happened?" Hou Er breathed a sigh of relief and agreed with a smile.
"What is the important thing for me to be a girl? My mother-in-law has no other skills, and the food is really good." Hou Er knew that this was a rare opportunity, so he hurriedly responded for his wife.
"No, no, my cooking is very average. You still ....." Before Aunt Hou finished speaking, she saw her husband's sharp eyes, and she held back the second half of the sentence.
"Aunt Hou, don't be nervous, my two little brothers get along very well. If there is any work in the house, you can also command them. There are no people in the barren mountains and mountains around here. In the future, everyone will help each other and be a companion." Han Beiqing smiled and comforted Aunt Hou, looking at the neat firewood in his yard.
I couldn't help but ask, "Aunt Hou, your firewood is really neatly arranged."
Hou Er immediately remembered that the firewood room in front of him was empty. He volunteered, "The firewood is all picked up in the mountains, and tomorrow I will lead my two little brothers to the back mountains to pick it up. In less than two days, your firewood room will be full."
"It's not a hurry, it's not a big deal." Han Beiqing smiled and looked at Hou Er a little restrained. It seemed that some things were difficult to say, and I didn't say it for a long time.
"Girl, is there something you want to ask me?" Hou Er saw Han Beiqing's embarrassed look on his face and took the initiative to ask.
"I don't really understand something. I walked around the yard and didn't find where the latrine was. Could it be that the Qian family never went to the toilet?"
Han Beiqing's doubts made Hou Er raise his head and laugh.
"That's what the girl asked."
Han Beiqing was a little embarrassed, and secretly wondered in his heart, what's so ridiculous about this?
Hou Er began to tell the story of this courtyard: "When this courtyard was first built, the kitchen and thatched house were built according to the rules."
"Let's talk about the outer courtyard first, and the two rooms where the people live are located. It is convenient to watch the stables, and it is far from the courtyard where the master lives, so that he will not disturb the master when he gets up in the morning to work."
Living next to the stable?
Han Beiqing and Dalong looked at each other: How much does it taste like in summer?
Hou Er didn't pay attention to Han Beiqing's expression, and said to himself, "I entered the inner courtyard, which is where Master Qian entertains guests. The east and west wings are guest rooms, and when there are many people, the female dependents are placed in the backyard."
"The kitchen is the East Kitchen Master, and there was originally an outdoor kitchen on the south side of the East Wing. That is, behind the shadow wall, the hut should be diagonal to the kitchen, that is, in the northwest corner."
Dalong recalled that the current pattern is not like this. I couldn't help but ask, "How did you change it?"
"A year ago, Mr. Qian almost had an accident in business. I found a half-immortal to calculate, and said that the feng shui at home is not very good, and I want to move the whole world."
So the outer kitchen on the side of the east wing was demolished and moved to the opposite side of the west wing, and a house was built next to the well.
"Your family's current kitchen, the Stove God is a good location for half-immortals. And the well, for which a house was built one man high. Water can't fall on rainy days, and no amount of wind blows into the dust in winter. The water is the same underground spring as our well, but it tastes even sweeter. That half-fairy is still very powerful."
Hou Er's words made Han Beiqing feel ridiculous. Two wells in one spring, can they still have different tastes?
"The latrine is outside the courtyard, three steps southeast from the gate, and there is a magnificent house over there. It's convenient for the men to be over there!" Hou Er smiled embarrassedly: "As for the ladies of the inner house, the west ear room next to the main house will put a gong bucket. The subordinates of the Qian family will pour out the bucket and wash it before using it."
It means that each master room will prepare a spittoon and a bucket, so that it is clean and hygienic.
Han Beiqing rolled her eyes fiercely, since she woke up, she didn't care about the toilet at home.
When she used to live in the countryside, she never cleaned the toilet as a girl, no matter how poor and miserable she was. After that, I had a water supply and flush toilet, and I didn't care about that.
Right now......
Looking at Han Beiqing's embarrassed expression, Dalong said in a low voice, "Girl, don't worry. I'll clean up the buckets in the house and won't let the girl touch the pickles."
"I see, the thatched hut outside the courtyard can continue to be used. In the future, we will have to grow vegetables and grain at home, and these fertilizers will be of great use." Now that she knows how convenient the original master's house is, she can buy a few more barrels in the future.
As he spoke, Han Beiqing took out three taels of silver from his pocket and handed it to Aunt Hou: "Auntie, this is the food money I paid for my two brothers."
"No, no, ah, ah, ah....." Aunt Hou saw that Han Beiqing gave too much, and wanted to excuse herself, but she was so anxious that she couldn't say half a word. was sweating profusely in a hurry, desperately stuffing the silver into Han Beiqing's arms.
Han Beiqing was pushed by Aunt Hou's strong strength and staggered, and he didn't stand still several times. Xiao Can saw it and helped Han Beiqing to block between the two, which ended this dispute.
"What do you do? Beware of hurting the girl, we can't afford to pay for it." Hou's second daughter-in-law was reckless and hurriedly apologized to Han Beiqing.
"Don't be surprised, girl, my daughter-in-law is a dead eye."
Han Beiqing disagreed, and said with a light smile: "It's okay, I know that Aunt Hou is a real person. But I'm not done yet."
She looked at Aunt Hou and said with a smile, "If it's food money, it's really too much. It's just that there's more than just food money in it, Aunt Hou, listen to me carefully."
Aunt Hou breathed a sigh of relief, nodded and looked serious: "Okay, I'll listen to you."
"I, I just bought a bunch of cotton and cotton cloth. I'm tired of Aunt Hou helping to make a few futons, not to mention the two bald boys, even if I can't do it at a girl's house."
Aunt Hou nodded, "Okay, I'll do it for you."
"Although our two families are neighbors, one yard is one yard. The wages for this bedding are according to the market price, and you have to collect it, Aunt Hou, otherwise we won't dare to look for you for any more work in the future."
Aunt Hou blushed, she was a little embarrassed when Han Beiqing said that she was in her heart.
"Besides, it's empty outside the house. In the past two days, Dalong Xiaocan has to clean the yard and put the things in the house in place. Household objects, such as a wooden bucket for bathing, soap powder for washing face, and even a rag for wiping ash, do not have a piece at home. Yes, the family also needs to produce Gong buckets and incense spices. There are a lot of things, and trivial things need patience and care. This tired Aunt Hou is more to help out."
After speaking, Han Beiqing began to arrange work for Xiaocan again: "When Aunt Hou helps our family to be placed, don't be idle. The younger brother of the Hou family is called Huzi, so I will hand it over to you to take with you. Whether it's picking wild fruits or collecting firewood, how to bring it out, I will bring it back. You know what?"
Xiao Can immediately straightened up and solemnly agreed, "Got it."
After the order, Han Beiqing said goodbye to the second elder of the Hou family with a smile: "There are many things at home, so we won't bother Uncle Hou and Aunt Hou." Starting tomorrow morning, these two children will be at your house."
Han Beiqing didn't realize that she subconsciously called Dalong Xiaocan a child. In fact, in the eyes of others, she is a few years younger than these two people.
When the three of them left, Aunt Hou asked her husband in hindsight: "You said that she is a little girl, why is she so old-fashioned? I thought it was someone older than me, and I was scared when I looked at them."
