Chapter 18 The great 'ideal' of a girl's marriage to a mother who can manage eating and being lazy

Li Dong was stunned, what did the girl say, saving money to marry a wife for herself, this means to find a stepmother for herself, question, it sounds a little strange.

Who would do this, not to mention that Xiaojuan looked at the three or four-year-old girl and said seriously, she saved money for her father to marry a daughter-in-law.

This...... This is too strange, and it makes Li Dong cry and laugh and get everyone's support.

No, for Mao, everyone in Zhuangzi thinks so, Li Dong is a little worried, don't make trouble, marry a daughter-in-law and take care of yourself, Li Dong thinks of his strong and strong daughter-in-law in forty years, and his scalp is numb.

Finally escaped from the clutches, which was preparing to push himself into the fire pit again.

Besides, the two said that they were divorced, but when they spoke to their daughter, their mother was not ready to find anyone again, so their daughter warned Comrade Li Dong several times not to think crookedly.

Comrade Li Dong has done a very good job in this regard, he is in his thirties, he has long been loosened, and he doesn't have so much thought, but when he came to 1978, he was more than ten years younger, and his body was quite restless.

No, it's really a side effect of traveling through time and space, it's really more than ten years younger, I can't think about it, Li Dong hurriedly shook his head, joking, marry a wife, this can't be worn by himself that day, what can a girl do.

"Uncle Guofu, you see, it's not an exaggeration to say that my family's condition is that the family is surrounded by four walls, and we can't affect others. ”

Li Dong's eyes rolled, and he finally found a reason, you look at the four walls of the house, not to mention that although the adobe house has a bit of a stone foundation, the house is too small, there is only one, and the outer courtyard wall has collapsed a lot.

Yes, also, Li Dong pointed to the roof that was still shiny, Xiaojuan's mother left last year, and her father also joined the river, and the roof was not plastered at all last winter. The adobe house, with a thatched roof, is repaired every winter.

Especially the roof is smeared with a layer of mud and a layer of grass, or the next year will leak rain, this year's situation is not good, drought, more than a month without a drop of rain, if the rain in previous years is more, Xiaojuan's house has already leaked into a sieve.

"What's wrong with being poor, the poorer you are, the more glorious you are. ”

"But no, baby, save more money, go back to your relatives in the city to borrow some more, everyone help to renovate the house, build another one and marry a capable daughter-in-law, everything will be fine in a few years." The fifth grandmother said with a smile. "You can't spend money like this anymore. ”

"Xiaojuan looked at your dad. ”

The sixth master on the side was smoking dry tobacco with his mouth open, and there was still a cigarette that Li Dong had just played on his ears. "Look, why do you want two cents for this cigarette, don't spend this unjust money in the future. ”

Li Dongxin said, Sixth Master, just now you smoked, your face was smiling, why don't you say it.

But what will this say, the old and young masters all nodded their heads one by one, and agreed that Li Dong should not buy such expensive cigarettes.

Fortunately, I didn't brag about it just now, if I knew that I was four cents and sixty-one packs, I wouldn't have criticized the fight to death.

"It's time to take care of it, it's impossible to be a serious mother-in-law. ”

Han Fu frowned. "It's okay to repair the house, after the autumn harvest, each family has a hand, let's help repair it well, Li Dong, you have been tired recently, get off work, go to the river beach to transport some stones, sift some sand, and go back to lay the foundation. ”

There is a lot of mud and sand washed away in the creek, and I usually build a house by myself to sift through the sand under the big tree. Li Dong was stunned, what's the matter, this matter has been finalized, this is a remnant of feudalism, and it is not democratic and free at all.

What kind of society is this, the whole village is ready to marry a daughter-in-law for himself, this is worth it, Li Dong looked at Xiaojuan. "Xiaojuan, why don't you want your stepmother to become a stepmother?"

"What a stepmother, this baby, the big guys are all helping to look at each other, and they must be looking for a good character. The fifth grandmother patted Li Dong, this baby is delicious and lazy, but her character is good, why don't you just enter the village and give fruit candy to the babies.

The old man who came stuffed the cake directly, and said that he brought some cream, which was sweet and soft, and the old man could eat it without teeth. The fifth grandmother took a bite, sweet and oily, full of egg taste, delicious, this did not eat a small bite and stuffed it in his pocket and took it back to his grandson.

You mouth, my Li Dong was stunned for a moment, this is a forced marriage, why does Xiaojuan keep nodding, this girl takes the lead, no, go back and educate well.

"Okay, that's it. ”

"Everyone came over to help after the autumn harvest. ”

Han Fu spoke and shouted Han Weijun. "Weijun, starting tomorrow, you teach Li Dong to fight adobe. ”

"Okay. ”

Han Weijun patted Li Dong on the shoulder. "Wake up early tomorrow and come to my house. ”

No, Li Dong was scared, beating adobe, this life Li Dong really knows, it's not too scary. Beating adobe is definitely a really heavy physical work in these days, and the body is not generally playable, and only strong people can operate it.

"Don't. ”

Li Dong smiled bitterly and looked at the villagers who went home to cook after the excitement, with a look of lovelessness. Well, I'm not talking yet.

"Dad, money. ”

As soon as the people left, Xiaojuan stretched out her little hand and asked for money, Li Dong couldn't cry or laugh, this black-hearted cotton jacket, the pit father still sprinkled soil, Li Dong took out thirty yuan, and handed it to Xiaojuan twenty-five. "For Dad, leave five yuan. ”

Li Dong regretted it, bragging, blowing too much, spending money on the restaurant and giving Huang Yingnan a dollar benefit fee along the way, which is more than three yuan, more than three yuan to buy fabric, and two yuan to buy meat. This is not counting the rucksack, which Li Dong exchanged for a hairpin and two pairs of stockings.

There are a few pairs of stockings left, and a pair of nine cents are sold to the salesman of the department store, which is a secret discovered by Li Dong, and the salesman of the department store will collect some things privately. If it weren't for the money from the sale of the stockings, Li Dong wouldn't even have thirty yuan on him.

Bragging, blowing a big hair, this will Li Dong only has thirty-six or seven yuan on him, alas, Xiaojuan grabbed thirty yuan and looked at Li Dong with a suspicious face, this new father is not honest at all.

Li Dong shuddered, this girl doubted herself, fortunately she had just hidden it or she would have really found out.

"It's gone. ”

Little girl, don't learn, what are you learning, Xiaojuan put away the money. "Dad, I'll collect the money first and use it for my daughter-in-law. ”

"Good, good. ”

Li Dong was helpless, he looked helpless, and when he thought that he would follow Han Weijun to learn to beat adobe early tomorrow morning, he sighed that he was not alive, who did he provoke.

The girl saved money for herself to marry her daughter-in-law, and the whole village helped to make a house and look at the girl, okay, this is really killing herself.

Alas, the meat is not fragrant, I ate two bowls of rice porridge casually and fell asleep without eating the stewed meat, and the next day before dawn, Li Dong woke up Xiaojuan. "Dad, get up and eat. ”

"Huh?"

It's still dark this day, this will eat, Li Dong can't cry or laugh. "It's still early for Xiaojuan to go to work. ”

"Dad, you forgot, you have to learn to beat adobe from Uncle Weijun. ”

Han Xiaojuan made multigrain rice in the morning, and had to do physical work in the morning, eat dry, and stew a few pieces of meat stewed by Li Dong yesterday, Li Dong sighed, why is he so miserable.

I thought that the little padded jacket was a black-hearted cotton, and forty years later, there was a strong girl, who was evil.

Li Dong washed up and took the rice handed over by Xiaojuan, and poured a spoonful of broth and a few pieces of meat on the big bowl of sharp rice, which smelled really good. Li Dong didn't eat much last night, he was really hungry, and he ate the big bowl of rice after a while.

Comfortable, he drank a sip and glanced at Han Xiaojuan, who drank rice porridge, and was stunned for a moment. "Xiaojuan, why don't you eat meat, you stewed a lot yesterday. ”

"I don't do manual work, I don't eat meat. Han Xiaojuan's answer made Li Dong's eyes red. "Why don't you eat meat if you don't do physical work, there is no reason for this, at least not here in Dad, you are growing your body, you have to eat more meat. As he spoke, he opened the vegetable cabinet and brought out the stewed meat and went to the kitchen shed.

Han Xiaojuan grabbed it, Li Dong had no choice but to say that the little girl didn't eat anything, and finally poured some broth mixed with rice, looking at Xiaojuan who was eating broth and soaking rice, Li Dong felt that he should work harder and bask in the sun more.

The most unfortunate next time I bring more shirts and stockings, Li Dong glanced at the screen time and passed twenty, there is not much sun these days, come on.

"Dad, go over first. ”

"Dad, study hard, don't be lazy. ”

Poof, Li Dong, who was still a little excited, and planned to lay a foundation for Xiaojuan, almost knocked on the threshold of the yard.

When he came to the rich house in South Korea, the family had already gotten up, and Han Weijun put all the tools in place and put them at the west end of the yard, where his family was beating adobe, and there would still be some adobe to dry.

This is all when the farm is slack, Han Weijun and his brothers are fighting, this is to make a house for the third child, Li Dong did not come empty-handed, and brought two ribs, after all, he came to learn the craft. "Aunt Chunhua, these two ribs are stewed for Xiao Hao and them to replenish their bodies. ”

"This kid, you're welcome. ”

Li Chunhua took the ribs and was polite in her mouth, but she didn't drag the mud and water in her hand at all, who is too much meat, it's a pity that it's not fat and can't refine oil, but it's good to have meat, Han Xiaohao's saliva is about to flow down, meat, I haven't eaten meat for a while, I remember that the last time I ate meat was the Dragon Boat Festival.

Han Fu has two daughters-in-law, especially Zhang Qiuju's eldest daughter-in-law, who originally had a lot of opinions about Han Weijun teaching Li Dong to play adobe, and his own man was very tired when he went to work, and he also taught Li Dong to be lazy and lazy to do adobe, which is a tiring job.

It can be seen that Li Dong is carrying at least half a catty of meat and bones, Zhang Qiuju showed a smile, this meat is earned by his own man, and his baby must have two more mouthfuls when he looks back, which is good.

Han Weijun beckoned Li Dong to come over, the tools were ready, there was a rectangular wooden shelf mold on the stone mill, and on the side was a stone hammer with a handle, a large stone hammer twenty centimeters square, with a T-shaped wooden handle inserted on it.

Li Dong finally knew why he said that it was manual work, this stone hammer didn't have dozens of pounds to hell, Li Dong grinned, the work of beating adobe was not done by people.

"I'll do a few first, you watch. ”

Han Weijun started to move his hand as he spoke, put the wooden shelf on the stone grinder, picked up a shovel, shoveled a shovel, and sprinkled it in the wooden mold. "Before loading the soil, you should sprinkle a layer of ash, or the adobe will not be good to pour out. ”

Speaking, began to dig to prepare to fill the mold, first a large shovel soil, filled half of the mold, and then an iron shovel, the second shovel of soil has to be placed in the middle. "Look, this is a total of three shovels, but there are particulars. ”

Han Weijun said with a smile, we have a mantra for playing adobe, three shovels, six feet and twelve rammers, saying that he jumped up on the mold and began to step on the soil with both feet, first the horn and then the middle, until the two ends are one inch higher than the mold, and the middle is two inches higher.

The next step is to use a big stone hammer, bend down and lift the stone hammer, and Han Weijun teaches Li Dong while smashing it. "First smash the front, then the back, and finally the middle, the order before and after must not be messed up, or you can't make good adobe. ”

"Also, don't touch the wooden frame when you smash it. ”

Han Weijun explained that the first piece should be made slowly, so that Li Dong could watch it carefully, otherwise Han Weijun would have already laid a piece of adobe. The adobe is laid, and the adobe is formed to open the mold at one end and lean it against the stone hammer.

"Be careful, turn the adobe horizontally around the waist and in the middle, but don't turn it upright, it's easy to break down. ”

Han Weijun turned over the adobe and carried it on the adobe stack, holding both ends of the adobe with both hands when carrying it, Li Dong nodded while looking at it, but he was bitter in his heart

Here, Han Weijun asked Li Dong a few words, remembered them all, it was very fast, and he handed it over to Li Dong after hitting two pieces, as soon as Li Dong got started, the shovel shoveled the soil was okay, but as soon as he got on the stone hammer, Li Dong was stunned, this stone hammer was too heavy.

This piece of adobe came down, Li Dong felt that his arms were sore and his legs were numb, this work could not be done, a house should be at least a few hundred pieces of adobe, this is his own life.

No, I can't do it, Li Dong knows what he is feat, if he doesn't do it, it's not good to hit three pieces Li Dong's whole person, it's going to be fatal. "Brother Weijun, it's not too early, you can eat, you have to go to work later. ”

"Okay, you can bring the tools back with you. ”

Han Weijun saw that Li Dong had succeeded in fighting, and nodded, but Li Dong was bitter here, a few pieces of adobe were directly beaten and he was about to die, if he hit hundreds or thousands of pieces, it was better to kill himself happily, Li Dongxin said that he must find a way, this adobe can't be beaten by himself, it's fatal.

Back home, Xiaojuan was very happy to see Li Dong transporting the tools to the house, the new father learned so well, Li Dong looked at Xiaojuan, this cheating daddy's baby. "Xiaojuan, shall we build a brick house?"

On the way back, Li Dong remembered that in later generations, Hanzhuang built brick houses with black tiles and horse-head walls.

It seems that it was the first one or two years, by the way, there are even earlier, it was built in the early seventies, Li Dong patted his thigh, why are he so stupid, buy bricks and tiles, cement, ask someone to build a house, it is still okay to build a house in this year.

As long as it's not speculation, I'm really stupid, adobe, forget it, this damn thing, I can't do it myself, no, bask in the sun more, today is to dig sweet potatoes, this can't be that place has shade, I can't help it, I still go to the paddy field.

Basking for a day, at least ten hours or more, Li Dong in order not to hit the adobe, planning to carry water, the most difficult to tread water, South Korea rich listened, good boy, in order to marry a daughter-in-law, look at this full of energy, good, just say that there is no lazy guy, this is ready to progress.

Sure enough, for the young man, there is nothing more energetic than marrying a mother-in-law, Li Dong saw Han Fu looking at himself with a smile and nodded with satisfaction, but his eyes were weird, what is the situation?

"Why do I feel that something is wrong?" Li Dong muttered in his heart, don't make any trouble.
