In the cold winter of Layue, a cold air swept across the land of northern Jiangsu.

Overnight, the mountains were covered with a thick quilt.

In an ordinary farmhouse courtyard in Liyuan Village, Wu Yuan, who was shirtless, was in the east house where the wind was leaking everywhere, riveting the standing wood and horizontal wood, and then embedding the wooden planks to form a set of combination cabinets that are popular in the south.

After a while, perhaps tired of knocking, Wu Yuan sat down and lit a large front door.

In a trance.

Suddenly, his sturdy body spasmed, as if he had been caught by a ghost.

It's a pity that in the small courtyard here, he lives alone, and no one knows.

I can only endure this momentum and slowly calm down.

Cold sweat trickled down and fell into the shavings, disappearing, silently.

Wu Yuan was stunned to discover a fact.

He was born again.

From the rebirth in 2022 to the first month of the first month of 1988, it is actually the first day of the lunar month of 87.

From the age of 55, who already knew the destiny of heaven, to the age of 21, who was in the prime of life.

Wu Yuan's mood was very complicated.

Then his eyes fell on the freshly baked combination cabinet in front of him, and it was even more indescribable.

This set of combination cabinets is the first time he has built independently since he became a carpenter, and it is also the first new attempt after abandoning his master's old-school furniture concepts.

I have to admit that in the realization and application of the mortise and tenon structure, he has been better than the blue.

The whole set of combination cabinets did not use a single nail, and it was still tightly fitted and as stable as Mount Tai.

Even the carved details on the doors and corners are remarkable.

It is no wonder that in his previous life, he was very satisfied with this set of furniture.

Later, he was pulled to the markets in the neighboring towns to sell, thinking of earning a sum of money for the New Year.

It's a pity that it was sold until the beginning of the year, and it was not sold.

In the end, he had no choice but to sell it to Li Ergou of the fourth team in the same village at a low price.

It's only 400 yuan, and it's still three years in arrears.

This became the first failure of his carpenter's career, and it could even be said to be a disgrace.

So much so that for many years later, he didn't have much work, and could only rely on making coffins for other people's homes to survive.

Now that he is a human being in two lives, Wu Yuan can see the problem at a glance.

Rather, it was his first work as a carpenter; Rather, this is his first work after becoming a carpenter.

At the age of 21, he is a carpenter, and he is still far from the carpenter's craftsmanship and realm.

It's like this set of combination cabinets in front of you.

Obviously, the combination cabinet should be foreign and refreshing, but it looks rustic and dirty.

It's no wonder that someone is willing to buy it!

Fortunately, for him, who has more than 30 years of carpentry experience, it is not too late to make amends.

Just as he was about to tear down the mortise and tenon structure and start over, the rhubarb at the door barked wildly, and then stopped abruptly.

Then, the third sister Wu Xiuhua, who was wrapped in a white gauze scarf, pushed the door and entered, and called out one by one from a distance.

"Third sister, I'm in the East House."

Wu Yuan responded, and saw someone stomping his feet at the east gate, removing the white gauze scarf, revealing his frozen red cheeks.

"Why are you here on such a cold day?"

"I'm not afraid that you won't have anything to eat at home alone, so I'll send you some dried red roots." Wu Xiuhua put down the basket and immediately went straight to the point: "You will be 22 years old in the New Year, and you should have married a daughter-in-law and started a family." The eldest sister of the Xu family, if you are willing, I will send 100 yuan of dowry to people tomorrow, settle the matter, and strive to do the happy event before the new year, and enter the cave room, so that you will not be lonely during the New Year. ”

"Third sister, I'll just deal with it casually. As for your children, you can leave the dried red lotus for the children to eat. ”

"Don't talk to me about anything else, ask you about the eldest sister of the Xu family, should you or shouldn't?"

Wu Xiuhua is quick to speak, and her younger brother's ability to change the topic is not easy to do in front of her at all.

Since there is no way to avoid it.

Wu Yuan insisted: "Xu Yanmei can't do it, I didn't like her." ”

"Then you say, who do you have a crush on?"

"I'm rare for Yang Luoge."

"The pearl of the Yang branch secretary, the little daughter of the Yang family? Do you know how much the bride price of the Yang branch secretary is open to the public? A thousand, a whole thousand! 1,000 yuan, even if your third brother-in-law is the village party secretary, my family can't take it out. ”

Wu Yuanxin said this.

The third brother-in-law, Xiong Gang, is too righteous.

Otherwise, the third sister would not be allowed to be so 'Voldemort', bringing things from home every now and then to subsidize her younger brother.

Even the bride price marriage of the younger brother has to be taken care of.

"Brother, you have to pay attention to the right person when marrying a family. With the conditions of our family, we can't afford to marry a girl from Luoyan. You should be realistic and consider Xu Yanmei. She is the eldest in the family, and she must be more able to take care of people than a little girl like Luo Yan......"

Wu Yuan still shook his head.

In his previous life, he listened to the words of his third sister and married Xu Yanmei.

As a result, when spring began, Xu Yanmei couldn't stand the hard life at home and ran away with others.

made him completely reduced to a joke in Liyuan Village, and he could never raise his head.

Later, as Master worked everywhere, participated in the construction of auditoriums and movie theaters, he never met a suitable woman again.

It wasn't until after the turn of the millennium that the real estate industry sprung up, carpentry work suddenly increased, and wages also rose.

At this time, there is no shortage of women around.

But the woman who works the construction site is more realistic, and it is difficult to know whether it is hot or cold.

As for the mixed up later, the women around me couldn't go away at all.

So Xu Yanmei, Wu Yuan can't agree to anything.

can only insist: "Third sister, I will not marry Yang Luoyan in my life." ”

Wu Xiuhua was anxious, "Sister knows that Yang Luoyan is good-looking, and she is very smart. But the Yang branch secretary shouted out the sky-high bride price of 1,000 yuan, isn't it just to plug the mouths of our rural people? He wants to marry his precious girl to the city and become a city person, don't you understand? ”

This is true.

In her previous life, Yang Luoyan did marry in the city, but unfortunately her husband was a short-lived ghost and died after only three years.

"Besides, Yang Luoyan has been pampered since she was a child, can there be a girl like Xu Yanmei who knows cold and hot?"

Wu Yuan disagreed.

He and Yang Luoyan have been classmates for nine years, until they graduated from elementary school, and they know that she is not squeamish at all, and she is very kind.

After her husband's death, she remained in charge of the broken home and did not remarry. At home and abroad, they are also well organized, and the only daughter is also trained and admitted to university.

The folks in ten miles and eight towns, whoever mentions it, they are all praised, but they don't say it.

So it was impossible for Wu Yuan to let go.

Even if Wu Xiuhua said anything, it was useless, and finally dropped a sentence: "If you want to marry Yang Luoyan, you can earn 1,000 yuan first!" ”

"Okay, third sister, you can come back in seven days."

Wu Xiuhua looked back in surprise: "Seven days later, if you don't steal or rob, if you can have 1,000 yuan, third sister, I will show this cheek and help you marry Yang Luoyan home!" ”

"Then it's a word! Third sister, you go slower on the way back. ”

"Do you want to be annoyed? Let's go! ”
