Chapter 24 Buying Furniture

Chen Changqing agreed vaguely, but he was annoyed in his heart.

He is also cheap, saying what the water tank is doing, it is good, but he has recruited himself a thankless task.

You have to pay it back!

After eating, Chen Changqing went back to the house and slowly came back to his senses, he was the team leader, how could Susie tell him to do things so naturally?

He couldn't refute it yet, it was really depressing.

Susie and the others also finished eating, and several female intellectuals cleaned up together in the stove house.

Qiao Mu and Yuan Gang took advantage of the fact that it was not completely dark and went to fetch water.

Susie suddenly heard someone shouting in the courtyard, "Su Zhiqing-Su Zhiqing-"

When she came out of the house, she saw a little girl of seven or eight years old, with a round face, looking around.

Susie beckoned to the little girl, "I'm Susie, you're looking for me?" ”

The little girl ran over and said, "My grandmother asked me to come to you and tell me to buy you furniture." ”

Susie reacted that the little girl's grandmother should be Captain Xu's daughter-in-law.

She pulled the little girl's pigtails, "Okay, you wait for me for a while, and I'll go back to the house and get the money." ”

Susie has always kept the money close to her, but she can't take off her pants and take the money in front of people for a while.

She went back to the house, counted out one hundred and fifty yuan, put it in her trouser pocket, and grabbed a handful of sorghum syrup she bought in Qingshi Town and put it in her pocket.

When I came out, I saw Tian Xiaohui and Zhao Tingting talking to the little girl, and Tian Xiaohui was smiling and pulling the little girl's pigtails.

Susie handed the little girl a handful of sorghum syrup, and the little girl's eyes lit up, "I've eaten this candy, it's soft, but it's delicious." ”

When she arrived at Captain Xu's house, Liu Hongying took off her apron and came out, waving her hand sharply, "Let's go, I'll take you to Xu Changyou's house." ”

On the way, Susie inquired about Xu Chang's family.

This Xu Changyou and Captain Xu are in the same rank, and they are brothers.

Their ancestors were officials, and after returning to their hometowns, they built a magnificent three-entry mansion in their hometown.

Xu Changyou is the eldest branch, and this mansion was passed into his hands.

During the campaign, the first two houses were confiscated, and now they are the office and warehouse of the production team.

As soon as they entered the house, their family still lives by themselves.

Their family used to have a lot of houses and furniture, but now that their two daughters are married, the population is small, and they don't need so much furniture, so they are redundant.

Liu Hongying led a few people into the courtyard, opened her throat and shouted, "Sister-in-law Huang, I brought someone here!" ”

The lights in the room suddenly turned on, and someone must have twisted the twist of a kerosene lamp.

Then a skinny woman came out.

She spoke in a low voice, "You guys come in and sit down." ”

The woman looked to be fifty or sixty years old, very thin, with furrows on her face, a few deep Sichuan lines between her eyebrows, and a pair of small feet when she walked.

When they entered the house, the woman beckoned to a few people, "Sit down, I'll go get the key." ”

There was a coughing sound in the house, and Liu Hongying whispered: "That's Huang's sister-in-law's man, who is not in good health, and lies in bed all the year round, so he relies on Huang Chunzhen to earn a share of work to support him." ”

Tian Xiaohui asked, "Why don't their children take care of them?" ”

Liu Hongying waved her hand, "The two daughters are married, and sometimes they come back to take a look." ”

Huang Chunzhen took the key and came out and opened a door connected to the hall.

As soon as the door opened, Susie choked and coughed, and she quickly covered her nose and took a few steps back.

Huang Chunzhen pointed inside, "You can move out of the things you like here, and the price is negotiable." ”

Susie covered her nose with one hand and held the oil lamp in the other, and saw that there was a lot of furniture piled up in the room, and the furniture was full of dust.

There are tables and chairs, beds, desks, a large wardrobe, and a screen.

Susie saw the screen at a glance, the screen was carved up and down, and it looked very exquisite.

However, the light was dim, and it was not clear what kind of wood it was.

Huang Chunzhen saw Susie staring at the screen, and quickly took a rag to wipe a small area, and the flowers and birds inlaid with luodian on the screen revealed a palm-sized piece, just like that, it seemed that the whole room was lit up in an instant.

Huang Chunzhen sighed: "This is a good thing, the six screens of sour branches and wood, handed down by the ancestors, I don't know how many years." ”

Susie reached out and touched it, and the screen was polished very smooth.

She turned her head and asked Huang Chunzhen, "How much does this cost?" ”

"I'll have to ask the old man." Huang Chunzhen said and turned to go out.

Tian Xiaohui pulled Susie, "Susie, what's the use of you buying this, we're here to buy tables, chairs and wardrobes!" ”

Susie smiled at Tian Xiaohui, "Tables and chairs must be bought, but this one is good-looking, I like it." ”

Tian Xiaohui shook her head and sighed.

Huang Chunzhen quickly came back with little feet, and said with some apprehension: "My old man said that this screen will cost at least 100 yuan. ”

Zhao Tingting and Tian Xiaohui exclaimed together, "It's so expensive!" ”

Susie doesn't think it's expensive, she thinks a hundred dollars is for nothing.

Thirty or forty years later, a hundred yuan will be in vain, and a million will not be able to buy.

It's just that in this era, many people can't eat enough, and these things that have little effect except decoration can't be sold.

There are also very few people who recognize the value of these things.

She nodded, "Okay, I want this." ”

This thing is left in the hand, as if it is a fixed deposit for decades.

Susie looked at the table and chairs again.

The table was a table of eight immortals, and I couldn't tell what kind of wood it was, and there were four chairs that matched the table, and the table and chairs cost a total of twenty yuan.

Tian Xiaohui and Zhao Tingting both felt expensive, Susie didn't say anything, and went to look at the wardrobe again.

The wardrobe is very large and very high, Huang Chunzhen wiped it, "This is passed down with the screen, this is the top cabinet, and it is also made of sour branch wood, and the top cabinet can be removed and placed, or it can be used as a box alone." ”

"This cabinet can also be split into two."

Susie fell in love at first sight, this wardrobe is estimated to be played together with the screen, the style is similar, it looks like a set.

Huang Chunzhen said that the wardrobe should be one hundred and fifteen.

The price took everyone in the room by surprise.

Zhao Tingting and Tian Xiaohui both said: "This is too expensive, there are a lot of wood on this mountain, cut a few down, ask someone to make a cabinet and add paint, at most one or twenty yuan, one hundred and five can buy multiple cabinets." ”

Aunt Liu also said beside her: "Sister-in-law Huang, this price is too high, originally Su Zhiqing bought furniture to save time, and also thought that it could be cheaper, so it was not cost-effective to buy it so expensive." ”

Huang Chunzhen was a little ridiculous, and she also felt that it was expensive, but her man said that they were all good things and could not be sold cheaply.

She looked at Susie embarrassedly, Susie pointed to a few pieces of furniture, "I want the screen wardrobe, plus that set of tables and chairs, you see how much it costs in total." ”

Huang Chunzhen said: "Then I'll ask my man again." ”
