Chapter 38: Taking Stock
The Xia family has severed relations with him because of his remarriage.
But Xia Qing is Xia Lao's only daughter, and their antique calligraphy and paintings that have crossed the Ming Road and a set of jade heads have been left to Mei Ying and Liangzhou.
Lu Liangzhou said word by word, "My mother's things have all been appraised by experts and hold appraisal certificates, but now they are all fakes and almost worthless, who can give me an explanation?" ”
Everyone in the living room was taken aback.
Looking at Lu Liangzhou in disbelief, Zhang Zhen was the first to jump out, her voice trembling, "I swear, I have never touched these things, they are all in your father's study, and then no one reported them, these things were taken away, and it has been four years." ”
Shen Wan happened to come back with her kindergarten child, and she was also shocked when she saw this scene.
"Father, what is your opinion?" Lu Liangzhou asked lightly.
“…… Report! ”
"Good!"
After Lu Liangzhou finished doing this, he went to a courtyard house where he lived temporarily.
It's relatively close to the university, and it was for two children at the time, but now, I don't know when I will be able to use it.
In the past, that woman's least favorite thing was farming, and more than once she clamored to go to the city to go to agriculture and eat commercial grain.
But now, Gu Mingtang actually said that he loved that black land deeply.
Lu Liangzhou thought it was funny.
He opened his suitcase, which contained his things, a small clay figurine, a slingshot, a small wooden gun, and a large pile of marbles and villain books, slowly closed the box, and put these in the corner, this house is said to be a lease, but in fact it is for sale, but this area is now not allowed to be bought and sold privately, so I have to pay a deposit, and wait for a few years to deal with it.
Standing in the courtyard, Lu Liangzhou looked into the distance silently.
It hasn't moved for a long time.
……
In the blink of an eye, it passed the new year, the twenty-fourth day of the lunar month, according to the custom to sweep the house, these days Lili has to go home to help work during the day, and only come to be a companion at night.
After Gu Mingtang simply painted the wall of the stove room with a layer of white ash, the thatched house as a whole was upgraded by half a level.
Lin Shulan came and scolded her for tossing blindly, just ho with a little money, this house will have to be rebuilt sooner or later, what do you say you brush white ash and paste what newspaper is still laying red bricks on the ground?
put down a curtain of frozen bean buns, turned around, and had to admit that as soon as it was cleaned up, the room looked bright and comfortable.
It's like a house where people live in the city.
When I go home, I'm going to start sticking to the wall.
This year is not as much ragish as in previous years, but we have to have a good New Year.
After Lin Shulan left, Gu Mingtang began to take stock of his family in the yard.
There are two large tanks by the door, one contains more than half of the frozen steamed buns, frozen dumplings and sticky bean buns, and in the other jar, there are more than a dozen catties of pork belly, all cut and placed, as well as the captain's daughter-in-law quietly brought the pork liver and intestines and two pig trotters.
Eating fish during the Chinese New Year means that there is more than enough every year.
This will have to wait until tomorrow to go to the big river to fish collectively, and then the family will divide one, but there are still seven or eight catties of small miscellaneous fish in the tank that Gu Qingshan caught by himself, all of which have been cleaned up.
Gu Mingtang is going to go to the city tomorrow to buy frozen pears and hawthorns, and make sugar gourds for the two babies to eat.
There are now four cans of malt milk essence at home, enough for the child to drink for a few months.
There are also orange petal fruit candy, white rabbit white sugar, canned fruit, bald cakes, chicken cakes, peanuts and so on...... Before I knew it, I had stocked up on a lot of delicious things.
There are also spiced melon seeds.
By the way, tomorrow by the way, I will also buy couplets to hang money, but also buy firecrackers and flowers, and freeze ice lamps and red lanterns, anyway, the New Year is very capable of tossing people.
But for Gu Mingtang, it is definitely novel.
In the stove room, Gu Mingtang glanced at the stored grain, except for the lack of rice, there was no shortage of others.
She gave birth to a pot of soybean sprouts, and used a wooden trough to melt the soil, and planted rows of garlic on it, which have already sprouted green sprouts in the past few days.
Every morning, Lu Hui and Xueyan have to see if the garlic seedlings have grown.
Also take a look at it at night before you go to bed.
Because my mother said that when they grow taller, they will be wrapped in dumplings filled with garlic sprouts to eat.
Gu Mingtang was going to go into the space to get socks, there were a lot of ten pairs of wholesale socks in the space, and he took out some in advance, and waited for two days to take other things to Lin Shulan as a New Year's gift.
She also knew that Lin Shulan didn't even have a pair of socks.
As soon as I pushed the door open, I was almost blown away by the wind.
Nima, she was fine just now, why did the wind blow suddenly?
Quickly entered the space and took out the things and put them in the cloth bag, Gu Mingtang entered the house, and could hear the wind whistling outside all night, and in the second half of the night, it began to snow heavily, not only the goose feathers and heavy snow, but also the north wind that made people unable to open their eyes.
Even though it was noon, the sky was overcast and the range that could be seen was only a few meters.
Originally, there were many people who wanted to go to the county seat to buy New Year's goods, but as a result, no one could leave.
I thought the snow would stop the next day, but today it was heavier than yesterday's.
In the morning, the door was half blocked by heavy snow.
The snow is reaching the windowsill.
Fortunately, with great strength, he quickly shoveled out a road with a shovel, and when he saw the roof, Gu Mingtang's heart sank, if it continued like this, the house would collapse.
When he was holding the ladder and preparing to get the snow off the roof, Gu Quan came with Gu Qingshan.
Finally cleaned up in the face of the snowstorm.
But if you do this, you have to get it tomorrow.
Unexpectedly, in the afternoon, Gangzi stumbled with a big basket on his back.
Hurriedly welcomed the man into the house, poured hot water for him, and made him sit by the stove to warm up.
As soon as he recovered, he told Gu Mingtang that the snow on the road was up to people's knees, there was not a single car on the road, the telephone poles had fallen a lot, and the snow was still falling, so it was impossible to repair it.
Gangzi wiped his face, began to take things the same, and said in his mouth, "Sister, I listened to the weather forecast, saying that the blizzard will not stop for the time being, and today is the twenty-sixth of the lunar month, so I took it upon myself to help my sister buy it for the New Year, by the way, there are candles, it is not good, and the electricity will also be ......"
Gu Mingtang looked at the thin boy with a complicated expression.
He was still wearing the shabby cotton jacket, and the sleeves were still exposed.
Whatever the purpose, Gangzi did help her.
More than ten miles of road, and snowstorms, one foot deep and one foot shallow, the difficulty of walking can be imagined.
There are a lot of things to buy, there are couplets hanging money blessing characters, big red paper, firecrackers and flowers, as well as frozen pears and frozen persimmons, and at the bottom is a small aluminum stewed pot, the kind that happens to be placed on the stove, which is filled with eggs.
"Sister, I will be able to accept these years ago."
"Sister, it cost a total of thirty yuan."
Gu Mingtang knew that this kid shouldn't have earned a penny from her.
After paying, Gu Mingtang asked tentatively out of instinct, "Gangzi, we are not strangers anymore, do you need your sister's help?" ”
