Chapter 39: Deliberately scare
Early the next morning, Ning Changrong went to Carpenter Sun's house after eating. Carpenter Sun was making the small bamboo jar that Ning Qingxi wanted at this time.
After Ning Changrong came to tell him what he wanted, Carpenter Sun thought thoughtfully, "Changrong, what you said is not difficult, just add a card slot on both sides of the roof, and then buckle the entire tenon before and after." But do you have any requirements for wood? ”
Ning Changrong didn't know what kind of wood, he didn't have much research, and waved his hand and said: "Uncle Sun, you can just look at it, I don't pay attention to what kind of wood I use, I only require it to be strong and durable, waterproof and not easy to get insects." ”
"Okay, that's no problem, Uncle will definitely give you the whole sturdy, the wood soaked and brushed with some tung oil must be waterproof and insect-free, this is all basic kung fu."
"You don't ask for much, it's just that the roof of the car takes a bit of effort. You can come back in four or five days to get it, if there is any problem, we can change it again, your cow is bigger, and then see if you want to adjust the frame. ”
Ning Changrong said with satisfaction: "Okay, uncle, I can still trust your craftsmanship, otherwise I wouldn't have come to you." How do you calculate the price? ”
Ning Qingxi took a look at the small bamboo jar that Ning Qingxi ordered here before Carpenter Sun, and found that all of them were polished very round and did not scratch his hands.
The table ordered here has no shortcomings except for the ordinary style, and the edges of the wood have all been carefully handled by Carpenter Sun, which shows that the other party is indeed a serious worker.
Carpenter Sun estimated the size of the carriage and the wood needed in his heart, and said, "You can give two hangs of money for this car." ”
Ning Changrong calculated in his heart and found that the price was quite reasonable, and it was estimated that the car would cost a lot of money just for the materials, "No problem, just this price." I'll take it four days later, Uncle Sun. ”
……
"What? A penny?! How's that? No, no, no! I didn't do anything and went for a penny! No, no, no! ”
Originally, I went to the county today, but I bought cattle temporarily, and Ning Laosan wanted to build a cowshed with Ning Laoer, so I changed the time and prepared to go again tomorrow.
Before going to Chengcheng, Li Dafeng asked Wang Xiujuan about the affairs of the county, and saw if they would buy something for the family when they went.
Wang Xiujuan bought almost everything, of course she didn't need Li Dafeng to bring anything.
only told her some information about the situation in the county, and finally mentioned the matter of the entrance fee, Li Dafeng blew up when he heard it.
Fang Chunmei thought that she had only earned two pennies when she was busy working for most of the time, and one person in the county was one penny, and she had worked hard for most of the day, and it was enough for two people to go to the county together.
I was still envious of my mother-in-law and let Li Dafeng go to the county, and the mood suddenly disappeared.
"Mother, what's going on? I've never heard of toll collection before. "From now on, it will cost you more money to go to the county. Li Dafeng felt distressed when he thought about it.
"I heard that there was a war in the north." Wang Xiujuan explained what Ning Changrong told her.
"What? This war is a war, why loot our people?! There was not much money all year round, and it had to go into their pockets! "If it weren't for the mother-in-law and eldest brother who have taken them to make money together for half a year, Li Dafeng would never have taken fifty wen in his life.
"You mouth!" Wang Xiujuan slapped Li Dafeng's shoulder.
"If you are more foolish, be louder, it is better to recruit all the officials and errands, and our family will be imprisoned together!"
Li Dafeng was suddenly frightened, his face was afraid, and he whispered: "Mother, I, I'm not in my own home." I'm sure I'm not going to talk nonsense when I go outside. ”
"You say at home that you are used to it and can still control your mouth outside? In the future, use my brain before I speak, what to say and what not to say, think clearly! ”
"Do you still have to discuss things with you? We're just ordinary people, so you can just listen to what you want. I am not satisfied, but I also hold it in my heart! ”
"If you like to go to the county or not, if you don't go, you will stay at home and work for me."
After Wang Xiujuan finished speaking, she went back to the room, leaving the two concubines who were anxious.
Ning Qingxi was eating pastry, "Milk." The third aunt made you angry again? I heard it all in the house. ”
When Wang Xiujuan smiled, there were dimples on each side of her cheeks, which seemed to be kind and cute, and said happily: "The milk is not angry, it is deliberately to scare her." She's a pretty good person, but she doesn't know how heavy her mouth is, and her milk has to be beaten well. ”
"Haha, I think the third aunt is probably going to be scared out of the psychological shadow by you."
"Milk, come on, you can also taste this pastry, I don't think it's as delicious as you make."
Wang Xiujuan smiled and sat next to Ning Qingxi, her body teeth were better than her original body, not a mouthful of dentures, picked up a piece of mung bean cake and broke a small piece and put it in her mouth, "It's okay, it's just not as fine as the flour on our side, and the sugar is a little less." ”
"Not only that, it's nothing with less sugar, and it's good to eat with less sugar, anyway, I just feel like something is missing, and it's delicious without milk."
Wang Xiujuan put down the pastry, raised her hand and touched Ning Qingxi's hair, "If you want to eat milk, I'll make it for you, didn't our family buy red beans?" How about milk to make red bean cake for you? "After half a year's effort, my granddaughter's hair has grown a lot. It's not that yellowish, but it's still dry and frizzy to the touch.
It is estimated that it has something to do with the fact that they wash their hair with plant ash, and their hair is squeezing every time they wash it.
"No need. Save it for the New Year. There are also a lot of sweets. Why don't you eat a little milk? ”
"I don't like milk, you can eat it." The family didn't have a few pieces of pastries left.
Ning Qingxi's small face was flat, "Milk!" Have you forgotten the rules of our house? Blessings and hardships are shared with hardships. Why do you like to eat or not? I'm your dearest granddaughter, can I not know? ”
"You used to have to secretly taste a few bites when you didn't have teeth, but now that you finally have teeth, why don't you like to eat? I'll leave some for my father, and the rest will be ours, and we'll eat together." ”
After receiving her granddaughter's education, Wang Xiujuan quickly realized her mistake, picked up the broken mung bean cake and ate it with her granddaughter, "The milk is wrong." ”
"This tooth seems to taste a little different."
Wang Xiujuan had a little pastry crumbs sticking to her cheeks, and she felt the joy of eating pastries with her own teeth with a look of surprise, and the dimples on both sides were still looming when she chewed.
"Hahaha, look at your current appearance, you're so cute!" Ning Qingxi couldn't straighten up with a smile, and patted the bed board desperately with his hand.
Li Dafeng and Fang Chunmei outside the room looked at each other. Although Wang Xiujuan only scolded Li Dafeng, Fang Chunmei was also frightened, her mother-in-law's face was really fierce when she fell. Seeing her eyelids jumping, it was the same last time, she didn't understand why every time Li Dafeng was scolded by her, she happened to be next to her, why did she carry this back?
In this family, only Xixi is not afraid of her milk, and she can get along better than mother and daughter, sometimes like two little sisters, and she can wear a pair of pants.
I don't know what my grandparents said in the room. But it seems that their mother-in-law should not be so angry, right? Li Dafeng's heart suddenly let go of a little.
