Chapter Twenty-Nine: New Houses Built
"Third child, I really envy you for giving birth to such a girl as Su Su." Huang Lian didn't say much, he looked at Su Sudao with a look of love.
"Second brother, you don't look at who gave birth to Su Su, my daughter is the best, smartest, and most filial in the world, and no one can compare to her." Huang Bai said that his family Susu was both proud and showing off.
can boast of Su Su vigorously, that is definitely not modest, who made his daughter so good, it is not available in other people's families.
"Yes, yes, yes." Huang Lian saw that the third child of his family was so proud that he almost raised his tail to the sky, Huang Lian had some hateful teeth, and only blamed himself for not giving birth to a smart, sensible, caring and capable girl like Su Su.
"Mother, have you picked all the things?" After a while, Huang Zisu and the others found Huang Zhao and them in a cloth shop, Huang Zisu walked towards her mother, stepped forward and took her mother's arm and asked.
"It's all here, just waiting for your dad to pay." Huang Zhao pointed not far away, a large number of things they had selected.
"So much?" Huang Bai and Huang Lian brothers saw several back baskets of piles of cotton not far away, which should be dozens of catties by sight, and there were also insoles, cloth and other things, Huang Bai was a little surprised.
He pondered, if it weren't for the high price of medicinal materials here, maybe the money for the medicinal materials sold today would not be enough for their family to buy things.
After all, when they came to the town today, their family not only bought cotton and other clothing, but also had to buy coarse grains such as rice and flour to go home.
Coarse grains such as rice and flour are also expensive.
"Why don't you want it, we have to make a thick cotton coat for each of us! In addition, I also made a few thick quilts for the winter, otherwise how could I survive such a cold winter, these things may not be enough? Huang Zhao stretched out his finger and counted where the cotton was used.
"Fortunately, you boys and girls came up today, there are so many things, two or three people can't carry them back.
It seems that ginger is still old and spicy, and your grandma has already planned it! Let you all come to the town market, because I want someone to carry something back. Huang Lian on the side also suddenly realized the way at this time.
It turns out that why his mother is so generous today, and let so many people go to the town, it turns out that there is such a thing.
"Come on, buy it, buy it, see if you have all the things." Huang Bai knew that these things were all useful, and he didn't say anything, let his wife take a look, don't miss anything.
In the end, Huang Zhao also selected a few strings of silk threads, needles, and rags for the soles of his shoes, and then asked him to pay.
For such a thing, when you pay for it, it actually costs more than 500 yuan for one or two pieces of silver, and Huang Bai sighed that money is not forbidden.
After buying the things in the cloth store, the Huang family went straight to the grain store.
I bought 30 catties of broken rice, 50 catties of white flour, 30 catties of sweet potato noodles, and then bought some lard and pork strips, which also cost one or two taels of silver and more than 600 yuan.
There were more than two taels of silver left to take home.
When Huang Shisu and his family returned to Yunhe Village, the time came to the end of noon.
"You're back, wash up, go eat, we've already eaten." Huang Zhang's saw that Su Su and they were all back, she hurriedly stepped forward to take the things she bought, and Huang Zhang's urged everyone to wash and eat.
"Mother, where are my eldest brother, my father, and my two sisters-in-law?" Huang Bai was afraid that he was hungry, he gobbled up his food, and asked after he swept his eyes and didn't see his father and eldest brother.
"This morning, the beams of the house were erected, the straw was laid up, the house has been built, and your father and they are moving our things into the new house one after another. I'll wait for you here.
After you finish eating, go to your new home with the rest of your belongings, and after sleeping here for the night, go to your new home tomorrow morning to light a pair of firecrackers, and start a fire in the morning to celebrate the housewarming. Huang Zhang's face was happy, and his smile did not break.
From escaping the famine to settling down and building a new house, it was not easy.
"Okay, hurry up and finish eating, you can set up your room." When everyone heard this, they were going to move to a new house today, and everyone ate one by one.
After a while, after everyone finished eating, they went back to their rooms to pack, leaving the clothes they had changed for today, and all the rest were packed and moved to their new homes.
"We finally have a new home of our own." Everyone packed large bags and small bags to their new home, and everyone in the Huang family looked at their new home, and they all showed happy smiles on their faces.
"It's just an earthen house, looking at the way you all smirk, wouldn't you be excited to live in a house with big bricks and tiles in the future.
Alright, hurry up and tidy up your own room.
Your father and I live in the first room on the left side of the hall, and the boss and the family live in the first room on the right side of the house.
Aster and Su Su live in the second room on the left of the hall, and the two sisters Red Peony and White Peony live in the second room on the right.
For the rest of you, you will choose one of your own rooms under the eaves. Huang Zhang's family smirked happily when they saw a clay room in their own house, and she also arranged it a little funny.
From being displaced for many months, not reporting day and night, to sending people under the fence, to having their own home, this is easier said than done, and what hardships have been passed through from it, others cannot understand.
With a new home, it also means that their new life has begun, and a new journey is about to set sail.
Huang Zisu looked at their newly built farmhouse courtyard, which was very ordinary, with two rooms on the left and right in the hall, three rooms on the left and right under the verandah, and a kitchen, warehouse, firewood room, bathroom, pharmacy, pharmacies, latrines, chickens, ducks and pigsties in the backyard.
The villagers knew that the Huang family was a family of medicine and needed to go up the mountain often to collect medicines, so the villagers weaved many sieves, dustpans and triangular wooden shelves for drying medicine for their families.
As for the front yard, it is built and is a little different from other small farm yards.
In order to make it easier for patients to find their homes for consultation, Huang Yaozi specially circled a piece of land on the left side of the front yard and built two consultation rooms for patients, a small room where beds can be placed, tables and chairs, etc., so as to facilitate the places for needles or bone correction for visitors.
"The old three's family, firecrackers, tea, melon seeds, peanuts and other food have been bought, we will move over at the beginning of tomorrow, and we have to hit firecrackers along the way, and the new family will be overheated." After eating dinner, Huang Yaozi asked with a red face.
"Dad, I bought what my mother explained before, and my mother also checked it, and it was accurate. Just wait for tomorrow when the new home is overfired. ”
"The old three family's work is to let us worry. Boss, you will go to the village chief's house later, and say that we will move tomorrow, thank you for their continuous care these days.
Forget it, let's let the third child go, the boss's saw-mouthed gourd, I'm afraid I won't be able to say anything. ”
