Chapter 7
When Xu Ruoruo was sold to Lu's house, she only had two clothes in total, and the red dress she wore on the day of worship was taken back by Niu.
She hasn't even washed in the past two days. Now that there is a new person in the room, she naturally needs to wash well.
Xu Ruoruo asked Lu Xing who was squatting on the ground washing dishes, "Where do you wash your hands?"
Lu Xing pointed to a small room opposite the kitchen: "Wash there."
The Lu family's house is quite big, and there is a special place for washing to prevent water from accumulating on the ground.
"Okay," Xu Ruoruo stopped after taking two steps, with a look of gloom on his face: "Which basin should I use?"
Hearing this, Lu Xing felt a little embarrassed, a new wooden basin is supposed to be prepared for a newlywed, but Xu Ruoruo was bought as a celebration, and Niu didn't prepare anything.
Now that Lu Ze is gone, his things can't be used either.
"You, you can use mine." Lu Xing buried his head in the loofah to wash the dishes: "It's in my room, you can find a clean cloth towel from the cabinet, wait, I'll take you to buy a new basin in a few days .”
"Ah."
Xu Ruoruo didn't care about this, she never experienced any hardships in the last days.
Seeing that Xu Ruoruo was going to get the basin, Lu Xing suddenly stood up again: "I, I'll boil water for you."
Now that the weather is getting hotter, logically speaking, there is no need to boil hot water for washing, just just wipe it off, but for some reason, Lu Xing feels that Xu Ruoruo needs to use hot water.
Seeing Lu Xingfei's back entering the room, Xu Ruoruo couldn't help laughing.
This heavenly marriage was even better than she had imagined.
When sleeping at night, Xu Ruoruo consciously lay on the innermost side of the bed, facing the wall, curled up, occupying only a small space.
After Lu Xing lay down, there was still a large space between the two of them.
Xu Ruoruo held back his drowsiness, and waited until Lu Xing came back from the wash, "Good night."
This word is a bit new to Lu Xing, but from the literal meaning, it should be a good thing to say before going to bed.
Lu Xing chewed in his mouth for a long time before he replied softly: "Good night."
In the early morning of the next day, there was a faint wisp of cooking smoke coming out of the chimney of the Lu family, Lu Xing boiled water, Xu Ruoruo steamed some mixed noodles steamed cakes, and the steamed cakes were served with pickles for breakfast.
It's not bad for the Lu family to have breakfast. Here, most people don't eat in the morning. How can there be so much food to eat in the morning.
Getting up early to eat is simple, there is no need to put chopsticks on the table, everyone in the Lu family comes to the kitchen to pick up a cake with pickles, and a few people squat or stand in the yard and start eating.
The steamed cakes are soft and warm, with pickles sandwiched between them, they are salty and crispy, with a special flavor.
Lu Xing ate three pieces of pancakes in a row, and Niu said with some disgust, "Why did you eat so much in the morning? You weren't hungry last night."
Niu's mouth was broken, Lu Xing was used to it, he just pretended he didn't hear it.
Xu Ruoruo couldn't see Niu's bullying her, swallowed the cake in his mouth, looked at Niu's earnestly, and shouted affectionately:
"Auntie, look at my clothes, which are dirty and torn. Do I need to wear cleaner clothes for my brother's funeral in two days?"
As he said that, Xu Ruoruo put his clothes in front of Niu.
Lu Sanlang, who was standing next to Niu, took a look and turned his head: "I can't even take a bite of this breakfast."
Niu hurriedly coaxed: "Be good, I will buy you meat buns later."
Lu Silang, who was enjoying the steamed cakes, quickly said, "I want it too."
"It's all there."
Xu Ruoruo reminded: "Auntie, what do you think of my clothes?"
Lu Sanlang and Lu Silang were still rushing to school, Niu didn't dare to delay any longer, and said impatiently: "Today, I'm going to tear a piece of cloth and make a new dress."
"Thank you, auntie," Xu Ruoruo said happily, "and auntie, I just got married and didn't prepare anything, do you want to buy it together?"
Niu touched a handful of money from his purse: "Here you are."
After Lu Dali said that last night, Niu warned himself to treat Xu Ruoruo with a better attitude.
It's just that now, if she speaks a word to this dead girl, she feels that she is going to be pissed off.
This damn girl is here to collect debts.
Xu Ruoruo frowned: "Thank you, auntie, you are really kind."
Niu: "."
She also didn't want to talk to Xu Ruoruo, so she pulled Lu Sanlang and Lu Silang together: "Let's go, buy meat buns and go to school."
Lu Sanlang and Lu Silang: "Second brother, second sister-in-law, goodbye."
"Listen to your master."
Xu Ruoruo didn't expect that a person like Niu could teach two good kids like Sanlang and Shiro.
When the others walked away, Lu Xing said quietly, "The two of them have been in school since they were five years old."
Xu Ruoruo suddenly realized, no wonder.
It is not easy to go to school. Going out early and returning late, accepting various admonitions from the master, memorizing so many collections of classics and history, and being able to persevere shows that these two children have good temperaments, know good and evil, and understand the general.
Lu Xing cleaned up the kitchen, and Xu Ruoruo bowed his head to count the money that Niu just gave her.
After counting twice, Xu Ruoruo finally confirmed that Niu gave a full six hundred Wen.
Xu Ruoruo didn't have a specific amount of money here, so he asked Lu Xing, "How much is a piece of cloth in the town?"
Lu Xing hadn't been to a silk shop for a long time, and he only vaguely remembered a number: "Thirty cents a foot."
They don't buy cloth like the big households in the county, who buy cloth one by one. They buy cloth by foot by foot.
"Then this can make at least three pieces of clothing."
One foot of cloth is not much, with Xu Ruoruo's height, he needs at least four feet of cloth to make clothes for himself, and at least six feet of cloth to make clothes for Lu Xing.
Xu Ruoruo looked down at the old clothes on his body again: "This clothes can probably make two pairs of new shoes."
After tidying up the house, Xu Ruoruo and Lu Xing went out together.
Lu Dali went out early in the morning and didn't open a shop, so Lu Xing didn't have to go to the incense and candle shop.
Lu Xing led Xu Ruoruo to Tianshui Lane, the busiest street in Jixing Town, with so many shops that the eyes couldn't see it.
Xu Ruoruo secretly looked at these shops while walking with Lu.
Lu Xing took Xu Ruoruo to a shop near Tianshui Lane. This was the shop his parents brought him to when he was a child. The cabinets inside were filled with cloths of various materials and colors.
Most of the cloth is numb and cotton, and the color is mainly dull and stable, and bright ones are rare.
As soon as Lu Xing and Xu Ruoruo walked into the shop, a female boss in a collared top and an apricot-colored pleated skirt walked up to them, her eyes looked like she had a scanner, she took a look at the two of them, and called them to the office. Cloth here.
The boss smiled and patted the fabric in front of him: "This gentleman is going to buy fabrics for his wife. These are all made of cotton thread, not the kind of hemp thread. This kind of fabric is soft to the touch and absorbs sweat when worn next to the body." , could not be more comfortable to wear on the body.”
