Chapter 182: Sincerity
When the first frost came down, the kang of Zhang Sijiu's family and the county government were all ready. The big green bricks are beautiful and neat, and as soon as they are burned, the house should be warmer.
The village also wanted to do it, but I was scared back when I asked about the price.
The Xu family is not reluctant, anyway, now they don't have to worry about having no work to do.
Not only did they do it themselves, but at Xu Jiang's suggestion, they recruited several masons to work separately.
But even so, they were lined up until two days before the Chinese New Year's Eve.
It simply can't be done.
With such a volume of orders, of course, the money earned is also considerable.
On the day he came to burn the kang for the Zhang family, Guo's big bags were beaming, and it was like moving.
Not only dim snack, but also cloth and cotton.
But Xu was taken aback: "Sister-in-law, what are you doing here?" Why do you buy so many things? ”
Guo Shile moved the things into Yang's house and took them out to show Xu: "These snacks are for the mother-in-law, this cloth, in addition to the two boys, and this cyan one, is for Jiuniang and the little pumpkin." Jiuniang is a little girl, she must love beauty and make a beautiful dress! Cotton you just use to make a padded jacket lining. This is a fine cotton, and it must be warm when it is made! In the past, I was reluctant to use it myself, and only bought taro and tiger head. ”
"And this one, it's for you. Mother said, you look thin, you have to make up for it. So I bought the best angelica, and you took it to stew chicken soup to drink. These shoes were made by my mother for Xiaoshan herself, let him try them to see if they are suitable or not! ”
Xu and Yang were a little stunned: What the hell is going on? How can this be more than the Chinese New Year?
After Guo finished dividing the things, he happily pulled Xu to sit next to Yang and spoke, "This time we made this kang and made a lot of money. Thanks to the hills! It's a shame that he was an errand boy by Yang County's side, otherwise how would we have this opportunity? Originally, I wanted to send something to Yang County, but Yang County's order was stunned, saying that we were earning hard-earned money, so there was no need to do so. Yang County Ling is really a good official! ”
Only then did the two understand why Guo had brought so many things today.
Xu breathed a sigh of relief: she was really afraid that her mother would let her sister-in-law bring so many things over, which would cause the two sisters-in-law to feel distressed and unhappy. After all, it's all money!
However, looking at this posture, the Xu family also understood, it is estimated that the Xu family is really making money this time, and this gift is also unanimously agreed by the Xu family.
Xu smiled and chatted with Guo: "Sister-in-law, you too, why do you bring so much?" You and your second sister-in-law are not willing to eat, how can I be embarrassed? ”
"Why didn't you give up?" As soon as Guo Shi stretched out her hand, a silver bracelet shook brightly on her wrist, and she smiled like something: "This is what your eldest brother bought for me, and your second brother also bought it for your second sister-in-law!" Even Xu Jiang saved one for his future daughter-in-law! ”
The silver bracelet was brand new, a finger's width and quite thick, with a pattern engraved on it, shiny and beautiful. And it looks heavy, and it is estimated that there must be at least one or two.
Xu couldn't help but exclaim when he looked at it: "It's so beautiful!" ”
Guo withdrew his hand, and his smile never fell: "I said let him not buy it, he had to buy it." ”
Although it was his brother and sister-in-law, Xu was really a little envious at this time - of course, Guo also meant to show affection.
Yang also smiled and praised a few words, saying that the Guo family is blessed, the husband and wife are loving, and the heirs are prosperous. Then he asked about the body of Xu's parents.
Anyway, the overall chat content was very pleasant.
However, on the whole, what Guo prepared for Zhang Sijiu was obviously better than that for Komatsu and Xiaobai.
This point still explains Guo's mind very well.
Even Guo Shi pulled Zhang Sijiu and asked with a smile: "Listen to Taro, you haven't been to the gate of the school to sell braised eggs recently?" However, he is embarrassed to eat your boiled eggs every day. Let me say thank you. You kid, you're really generous. ”
Zhang Sijiu smiled and pushed the credit to Xu: "This is what my second aunt meant." My second aunt prepared the eggs for me alone. She said that taro studied hard, and she, as an aunt, could not help, so she was a little careful. ”
But even so, Guo Shi looked at Zhang Sijiu's gaze, and he was still very kind, and even said: "When the Chinese New Year comes, don't see outside, come over to play with your second aunt." We have a lot of children, so we can play together. When the time comes, my aunt will make you something to eat. ”
Zhang Sijiu politely agreed, but he definitely didn't go.
She is an old aunt, and she also has the mentality of a nursery, how can she still play together?
For Guo's mentality, Xu was also a little panicked, and quietly said to Zhang Xiaoshan: "My sister-in-law is hard-hearted. I don't know why she likes Jiuniang so much. ”
Zhang Xiaoshan is now working in the yamen, and what he sees every day is different from before, and his words are also to the point: "Jiuniang is smart and capable, and she can make money, she has not dragged down, and she has no parents and brothers, if I find a daughter-in-law for Xiaosong Xiaobai, I am also willing to find this." More peace of mind. ”
What are you most afraid of marrying a daughter-in-law? I am afraid that my daughter-in-law will stick to her mother's family and help her mother's brother.
But Zhang Sijiu only has a sister. Sooner or later, you have to get married.
At that time, won't Zhang Sijiu only take care of his own small family?
Xu Shi was a little unwilling to listen to such words, and glanced at Zhang Xiaoshan: "The words are so ugly!" ”
Zhang Xiaoshan was alarmed in his heart, and smiled honestly: "Of course, your brother and sister-in-law are also kind-hearted people, and they will definitely not treat Jiuniang badly." Aren't I just boasting about our Jiuniang? That's my niece, can it be worse? ”
Xu Shi twisted Zhang Xiaoshan and snorted lightly: "I see that you have been a little too smooth recently, I don't know how thick the sky is!" You, it's clear that you're stained with Jiu Niang's light! Just you, that is, Jiu Niang's own uncle, the Yang County Commander only looks down on you! ”
Zhang Xiaoshan smiled "hehe": "Is that okay?" If you want me to say, this is the smoke coming from the ancestral tomb. ”
The two of them were fighting, and accidentally woke up Xiaobai next to them.
Xiaobai rubbed his eyes and sat up, "Mother, I want to pee." ”
Xu hurriedly put on his clothes and got out of bed with Xiaobai in his arms to urinate his son.
Zhang Xiaoshan was so angry that his teeth itched: Stinky boy, I won't give you water tomorrow! It's a bad thing!
However, he turned over, felt the warm taste of the bottom of his buttocks, and his heart was beautiful again: this is the fire kang! No wonder my mother-in-law would rather share my bed with me for so long than come back! It's me and I'm not coming back! It's so fucking warm!
When Xu came back after Xiaobai came back and Xiaobai fell asleep again, Zhang Xiaoshan hugged Xu, and at this moment, it seemed that he had reached the pinnacle of life - this fire kang is good! You don't have to dress like a silkworm chrysalis in winter, it's all meat on the meat when you pick it up! Comfortable!
