Chapter 133 Quarrel
"Okay, it's cold, don't freeze, you go back quickly, we will leave this place to us." Old man Zhang said with a smile.

Fat Miao'er and the others are young and can't do much work. In addition, the original agreement is that the Zhang family and Hu family will contribute, and Fat Miao'er will provide technology.

"Okay, Grandpa Zhang, let's go back first, and come back to see it in a few hours."

Fat Miao'er nodded, and beckoned Li Xiaodao and others to leave.

Just two steps away, she suddenly remembered something, turned around and reminded: "Grandpa Zhang, Grandpa Hu, it's freezing cold, and it's even colder at night. You'd better build a thatched hut nearby."

Burning charcoal does not happen overnight, and needs someone to take care of it all the time.

There is still work during the day, and there is a thatched hut, and the two take turns to rest and sleep, without delaying anything.

"We'll set up after the work is done." Old man Zhang smiled.

Fat Miao'er didn't need to remind him, he already knew about this matter.

Although the charcoal kiln is equivalent to three large stoves, it is not resistant to wind after all. When they build the thatched roof closer, I dare not say that it will be warmer than the house, at least it will not make people freeze.

If it doesn't work, just wear two more cotton-padded jackets and cover them with two more pairs of quilts.

……

back home.

Compass sprinkled the soaked leek seeds evenly into the wooden trough filled with soil, then lightly covered with a thin layer of soil, watered it, and stopped after the soil was completely wet.

Find Fat Miao'er and Liu Ye'er to discuss: "There is no room in the east room, can the vegetable tank be placed in the west room?"

Li Xiaodao, Wei Shu, and Luopan live in the larger east room, while Fat Miao'er Liu Ye'er lives in the west room.

At this time, five vats containing frogs were placed in the east room, which took up a lot of space, and there was not much room left.

Now after laying down a few rows of wooden troughs, there is only the place left, and the compass has the idea of ​​Westinghouse.

"Okay, let's move in!"

Liu Ye'er and Fat Miao'er nodded at the same time.

Squatting down, together with Compass and the others, they moved the remaining wooden troughs into the West Room, and placed them neatly along the base of the wall.

"I'll go to Gao's house in a while and ask them to build two wooden frames for this place, and they need to make more wooden troughs."

The compass counts the number of wooden troughs according to the size of the open space.

"When the time comes, don't forget to settle the money with others." Liu Ye'er reminded.

The Gao family they mentioned is the carpenter in Dashi Village, and the family has already made a living as a carpenter.

"I can't forget it! I can't forget it!"

Compass patted the purse on his waist, and Fat Miaoer gave him two hundred Wen, which was enough for him to buy a wooden trough and wooden frame, and these things could be used in the future.

"Sister, I'm hungry!"

At this time, Fat Miao'er's round belly cried out "Gulu Gulu", she raised her head and looked at Liu Yeer aggrievedly.

"Okay, I'm going to cook now."

Liu Ye'er smiled, and followed Li Xiaodao into the kitchen, and finally Wei Shu brought firewood, and after a while, the smoke rose from the kitchen, lingering in the air like clouds.

After dinner.

Fat Miao'er and the others are going to go to the charcoal kiln to see the situation, and then help out by the way.

As soon as he went out, he met Zhou Laosan who was hurrying home. He walked fast, flustered, with a serious expression on his face, and the corners of his mouth were tightly drawn.

When passing by Fat Miao'er's house, he almost didn't see the dirt bumps in front of him and almost fell down.

"Uncle Three!"

Li Xiaodao took two quick steps to support him, doubts flashed in his dark eyes.

At this time, Zhou Laosan was supposed to be on duty at the pier, and if he rushed back now, it could be that something happened at home.

Thinking so, Li Xiaodao didn't speak.

But Fat Miao'er didn't have so many scruples, and asked directly: "Father, what happened at home?"

The word "you" was used so cleverly that Zhou Laosan was heartbroken when he heard it, and he patted Fat Miao'er's head with a wry smile.

"Don't worry, it's a little thing, Dad will go back and deal with it, so I won't chat with you for now."

"father……"

Before Fat Miao'er finished speaking, Zhou Laosan left anxiously and ran home quickly.

Fat Miao'er looked at her back, and her raised little hand fell down.

"Let's go, let's go to the charcoal kiln."

……

The next day.

All three charcoal kilns were sealed.

The six members of the Zhang family and the Hu family have sawed all the wood cut by the villagers into sections and piled them up neatly.

At this time, they took advantage of their spare time to get thatch and build the hut.

"It doesn't need to be too big or too tall, just enough for two people to live in."

Old man Zhang said while plucking thatch.

There are a total of six of them, in pairs, every three days.

"If you have time, go and chop some more wood."

Old man Zhang looked up, and reckoned that the sawn wood would probably be enough for two times, that is, six kilns, and he would have to cut it himself if he used it again.

"Tomorrow, let's see the situation tomorrow, and I have to ask Fat Miao'er again."

While Father Hu was talking, his hands were not idle. He swiftly tied up the smoothed thatch with straw ropes.

He raised his head inadvertently, just in time to see several figures in the distance walking towards this side.

Said that Cao Cao Cao Cao arrived, it was the Fat Meower they mentioned just now.

"Grandpa Zhang!"

"Grandpa Hu!"

Far away, Fat Miao'er shouted and waved hello.

"Fat Miao'er, our kiln is closed, when will it open?"

When there are closed kilns, there are naturally open kilns, and the opening of kilns is the time to verify the results.

"One day and one night!"

Fat Miao'er thought about it, and set the time for tomorrow's hour.

"Okay, come over tomorrow and let's open the kiln together."

Old man Zhang and Father Hu responded with a smile, their eyes filled with anticipation, and they prayed: "I hope this kiln will be successful!"

The Zhang family raised frogs with Fat Miao'er, and now they are cooking charcoal with her. If both businesses are successful, they will be rich soon.

At that time, buy land and build a big tile house with blue bricks.

With extra money, I can send my grandson to school to study, learn to read and write, get rid of the identity of a mud leg in the country, and stop digging in the land.

"Definitely succeed!"

Fat Miao'er raised his head, full of confidence.

I thought to myself: It’s a big deal to try a few more times, as long as we continue to accumulate failure experience, there will always be a day of success.

Once, twice won't work, just eight times out of ten... The most important thing she lacks is time.

"Fat Miao'er is a little lucky star, what he says must be accurate." Zhang Yongshun joked with a smile.

The others nodded. The countryside is so poor, and Fat Miao'er can still grow so fat, can he be unlucky?

Fat Miao'er was overjoyed by the praise, squatted down together with Liu Ye'er and Compass, and helped Zhang and Hu's family smooth thatch and build a thatched house.

While they were working, they discussed the time for the future.

……

In the courtyard of the Zhou family.

Zhou Laosan had a quarrel with Mrs. Zhou for the first time in his life.

"Mom, how can you do this?"

Zhou Laosan looked at the old lady Zhou sitting on the kang head with a disheartened face.

The reason was that old lady Zhou made the decision in private yesterday and agreed to marry Zhou Laosan and Fang Zhu.

After Zhou Laosan heard the letter, he hurried back, knelt and cried and begged Mrs. Zhou to give up the marriage.

The old lady Zhou agreed.

however……
