I am Fugui

Chapter 64
"I'm going to change clothes first."

Walking into the house, Jiazhen first took a look at the changes in the house. The black dirt floor was swept clean, and all kinds of things were neatly put away. In addition to the familiar smell of thatch, there was also an aroma of lo-mei in the air.

Xu Fugui walked into the house with Jiazhen carrying the wicker box, and closed the bamboo door. Jiazhen glanced at him, took off the brocade robe she was wearing, and folded it carefully.

Under the brocade robe, he was still wearing close-fitting clothes, so he couldn't see anything, but Xu Fugui just stared at her exquisite figure with dry mouth.

"What are you doing? It's not like I haven't seen it before." Jiazhen said softly, and took out the old coarse clothes from the bamboo pole at the end of the bed to change into.

Xu Fugui walked over and gently hugged her from behind, "Jiazhen, I miss you so much."

Jiazhen didn't speak, but held his hand tightly and rubbed his chin.

"If you don't wear this one, it won't be warm. Mother made cotton clothes for each of us." Xu Fugui took down a gray cotton jacket from a bamboo pole, and there were even a few embroidered flowers on the cotton jacket.

They don't have a wardrobe or anything in their house, so they simply build a bamboo pole and put their clothes on it.

This dress was made by Xu's mother stitch by stitch. She couldn't be free, and she was looking for things to do for herself every day.

"Mother's craftsmanship is still so good." Jiazhen fondled the embroidered flowers and put on the padded jacket.

Even after taking off the silk brocade robe, Jiazhen is still so beautiful, her temperament is even more beautiful, and her big almond eyes seem to be able to speak.

"Jiazhen, when you go to the county town in the future, you will have to smear some pot black on your face."

The world is not peaceful, the brilliance of the new rabbit has not yet shined on them, Jiazhen is so beautiful, it is easy to get into trouble outside.

The same goes for Fengxia, this girl is beautiful and cute, she is the favorite of traffickers, she must be careful when going outside.

Regardless of that era, human traffickers will always exist, which is simply disgusting.

Jiazhen nodded lightly, "I'm fine and won't go to the county seat, just stay at home with my parents."

As she said that, she felt the strangeness behind her, her cheeks flushed, and she twisted her body slightly, "Okay, it's time for us to go out, don't keep parents waiting for a long time."

Xu Fugui resisted the impulse, let go of Jiazhen, and walked out with her.

Mother Xu and Chang Gen have already brought the food out of the pot.

Hey!
Good guy.

This meal was even richer than last night's New Year's Eve dinner, with sliced ​​bacon, vermicelli stewed with cabbage, steamed fish, a bowl of egg custard and salted cabbage made by Xu's mother.

"Eat meat." Fengxia happily stood on the bench, holding chopsticks in her hand, shaking her head.

Father Xu sat on the main seat, stroked his beard with a smile, and told Feng Xia to be careful not to fall.

"Fugui, I'm happy today. Let's have a drink with your father. I can't move my hands. Jiazhen, sit down quickly. You must be tired after walking for so long." Xu's mother hugged Youqing, her happy eyes disappeared .

Youqing stayed in her arms without crying or fussing, with his eyes open, he looked around hard.

"Mother, you still treat me as a guest, this is my own home." Jiazhen put on a black apron and sat on the long bench.

Xu Fugui took out a bottle of loose wine and four wine glasses from Father Xu's room, and sat next to Jiazhen.

"Pour it up, pour it up, I'm happy today, let's have a drink each." Father Xu was quite happy.

Xu's father used to like to drink when he was a landlord. Every time he had a meal, he would have a drink. After drinking, he would sleep on the reclining chair in the yard. He was very happy.

But after Jiazhen lost everything, Xu Fugui never saw him drinking again.

Drinking is good. Father Xu is willing to drink, which means he is happy.

Xu Fugui filled the four wine glasses, each of the four men had a drink, they raised the glasses and touched them.

Laishun and Changgen took a small sip, aftertaste in their mouths for a long time, and then swallowed.

Xu Fugui also likes to drink, but he doesn't like to drink alone or with strangers. He likes to get together with familiar people, drink and talk, and it's better to have a meat dish.

The wine was delicious, the food was delicious, and the family was reunited, with a big appetite. Xu Fugui also talked more, leading everyone to chat together.

While eating, she gave Jiazhen some meat, and Xu's mother also asked Jiazhen to eat more to supplement nutrition. It is not easy to have a baby.

Jiazhen couldn't help but smile bitterly. When she was in confinement at her mother's house, she had stewed old hen every day. She ate chicken, duck and fish whenever she wanted, and her nutrition had already been replenished.

After eating, Xu Fugui patted his stomach, burped loudly, and drank the rest of the white wine in the cup.

This glass of baijiu was at least two taels, but he didn't seem to feel anything after drinking it.

In his previous life, he had a very good capacity for alcohol. Half a catty of liquor was normal, and he would be slightly tipsy after drinking two taels.

It may be due to the strengthening of physical fitness, and the capacity for drinking is also better. I don't feel anything at all with two ounces of liquor.

Xu's father's face was flushed, and he was not bad at drinking, but when he got drunk, his face would get on his face.

As for Laishun, this guy is like an animal, as if he drank a glass of water, there is no change at all, he smashed his mouth, as if he still wants to drink.

Changgen doesn't hold a lot of alcohol, so after finishing a glass of white wine, he sat on the bench with his eyes closed, his face flushed.

"Lai Shun, let Chang Gen sleep on the bed." Father Xu said.

Laishun helped Changgen onto the bamboo bed, covered him with an old quilt, Jiazhen fed Fengxia the last bite of food, and immediately began to clean up the dishes.

"Jiazhen, where do you put it first? Come in with me first." Xu's mother put Youqing into Xu's father's arms, and brought Jiazhen into the room.

When they came inside, Mother Xu took out a wooden box from under the bed and handed it to Jiazhen.

"Mom, what is this?" Jiazhen didn't open it.

Xu's mother said with a smile: "This is our family property, and you should take care of it. I don't believe Fugui."

"Family property? I don't want it. There is no such thing as a daughter-in-law managing money."

Jiazhen handed it back, and Xu's mother pushed it over again, "Jiazhen, mother is old, and her eyes can't see clearly. The money in it was earned by Fugui with sweat. You are his woman, so you should keep it."

After evading for a long time, Xu's mother had already made up her mind, so Jiazhen could only open the wooden box to have a look.

She was surprised: "How can there be so much money?"

The inside of the wooden box was padded with a piece of black cloth, and on top of the black cloth was wrapped gold and silver with silk and red cloth.

Jiazhen counted them carefully. There was a gold bracelet and five golden beans in total. She knew about these family backgrounds. The gold bracelet was her own, and she left it when she returned to her wife.

But in addition to the bracelet and golden beans, there is a whole 60 silver dollars!

This is not a small sum of money.

Xu's mother smiled and said, "Fugui earns one silver dollar a day selling braised meat, almost all the money is here, and he should have a few silver dollars on him."

"However, I bought some things at home, such as bowls, chopsticks and tables, and I also bought a lot of cotton and foreign cloth."
