Chapter 74 The whole family must be neat and tidy!

Zhuzhu was struggling with Lu Bansuo, and finally came to her senses. She looked at her family members one by one with her big eyes blinking, and said in a sweet voice, "There is no black or black, they are all white!"

Just in time, Liu Dongniang happily came in from the outside and whispered, "The buns are steamed, they seem to be pretty good, Zhuzhu, come and try."

In her hand was a small cage, in which there were no more than eleven white and fat buns, each with thin skin and eighteen pleats, so hot that it made people drool.

Originally thought that Zhuzhu would be the first to rush over, but Zhuzhu pointed to her forehead and yelled, "Grandpa, you are gray, auntie is gray!"

Liu Dongniang was puzzled, a little confused.

She was stunned for a moment and then said with a smile, "What's wrong? I rubbed ashes on the bottom of the pot in the stove?"

After all, she pulled her sleeves and wiped her face a few times.

The old man hurriedly patted his little granddaughter, and coaxed him, "Grandpa knows, Zhuzhu doesn't have to worry, go eat buns!"

Zhuzhu had already smelled the fragrance and was very greedy.

Suddenly free, she immediately ran to hug her aunt's thigh, "Bao Bao, eat Bao Bao!"

Yang Lihua was afraid that her daughter would be burned, so she quickly stepped forward to pull her daughter away and rescued her sister-in-law.

Liu Dongniang put the drawer on the edge of the kang, and said with a smile, "It's the first time I use pure fine flour to leaven, I'm afraid that it won't rise and spoil the good stuff. Sister-in-law, take a look, it seems very good, but it's too soft. "

Yang Lihua also sincerely praised her, "Your craftsmanship is the best. What's the point of making noodles! From now on, feel free to do it boldly. There are so many people in the family. If it is good or bad, you will not throw it away. If you keep it, you will eat it."

Everyone happened to gather around and laughed.

For a while, everyone, old and young, shared a bun and held it carefully in their hands.

There were no other green vegetables at home, so Liu Dongniang chopped cabbage and blanched it in water, then diced a small piece of pork belly and fried it out of the oil, mixed them together, added two spoons of farmhouse sauce, and made stuffing.

Like this, when you take a bite, the soft wheat aroma of the dough, the oiliness of the pork belly, the sweetness of the cabbage, and the saltiness of the farm sauce are all mixed together, making it so delicious that it makes you swallow your tongue.

Even Tai Yonglu and Tai Yongyue, who were chattering before, shut their mouths and ate carefully, for fear that if they said one more word, the aroma in their mouths would be gone!

Until the last mouthful was swallowed, the whole family looked at each other and smiled.

“Auntie’s steamed buns are so delicious!”

"Yes, yes, I never get tired of eating it every day!"

"When I grow up, I want to make money and let my mother steam buns for me to eat every day!"

The boys chattered so much that they were almost dancing with joy. Liu Dongniang's face was flushed when she praised her, and she changed from her timid and cautious appearance in the past.

"Okay, as long as you like it, I will steam it!"

Zhuzhu ate slowly, and with a piece of bun skin left in her hand, she twisted her chubby body around to look for sesame balls.

"Eat the buns with sesame balls! Sesame balls!"

The little black dog came in from outside when he heard the noise, and his mouth was oily.

Liu Dongniang quickly said, "Well... I saw the sesame ball wandering around the door, so I fed it one too!"

She was very uneasy. After all, food was too expensive these days, and when others were still hungry, she actually fed meat buns to dogs. It was a bit unethical to say the least.

But the old man waved his hand and gave his daughter-in-law a reassurance.

"Sesame Ball saved Zhuzhu before, not to mention a steamed bun, not even a basket! From now on, every delicious meal at home will have a portion of Sesame Ball!"

"Understood, dad!" Liu Dongniang happily responded, and said, "I just used sorghum noodles to pinch a steamed bun for the big black horse! In this way, the whole family is really not left behind!"

"Okay, the family should be together and share the blessings and hardships."

The whole family, old and young, laughed, their hearts were extremely at ease and warm...

After breakfast the next day, the ordered wood and stones were delivered one after another.

The spring plowing in the fields will not start for at least a month. During this time, everyone is anxiously waiting, and there is nothing else to do except tidy up the baskets and mend the plow sticks.

Therefore, as soon as the Tai family started working, villagers arrived one after another, more people than yesterday.

After a while, five or six craftsmen Tai Jizong was looking for also arrived.

These craftsmen are all experienced, some are good at Niwa work, some are good at making doors and windows, and each of them brings a small worker to help.

Most of these workers are the nephews of craftsmen, who come out to make a living and learn some crafts.

The Tai family also hired them all according to the rules, and agreed on the wages.

Because of the long distance, these people will live in Taijia Village in the future.

Naturally, three meals a day are provided with the Tai family, and there is no need to worry about accommodation, as they are placed directly in the horse shelf in Tai Jicang.

After Tai Jicang's family moved out, the horse shelf was idle, and now it just came in handy.

With the three brothers Tai Jizu and everyone working together, Mr. Tai didn't have to worry.

He carried his little granddaughter on his back, wandering around the house with Tai Sanye.

The Tai family is so close to their neighbors to the east that they even have a courtyard wall.

Now if you want to expand, you can only go west.

The old man plans to change the original main house into five big rooms, and he and the eldest couple will each have half.

Then, there are also five east and west wing rooms, which are temporarily used by the second and third sons.

In the future, when the grandchildren get married, they can put down two more small families.

In this way, a small second entrance was added to the backyard, dividing it into two yards, one large and one small.

The small yard on the inside is reserved for the granddaughter to live alone in the future.

The little girl's family likes to plant flowers and grass, or when she loses her temper, closing the door is a quiet day.

The slightly larger yard has four rooms, which is enough for two grandchildren to live in as a family.

The vegetable garden at home was moved from the back to the west, surrounded by a fence, and also improved the situation where you can see your own house when you enter the village, so as to increase a little sense of security.

But this is easier said than done.

The more Mr. Tai calculated, the more he became more and more worried. He really needed a lot of money.

"Lao Liu, after building it like this, the new yard will definitely be grand and spacious, and it will be enough for the children to spread their branches in the future. But... is the money enough? Don't stop the work halfway through the construction. I only have three Five taels, I really can’t help!”

Old man Tai was funny, he gave his elder brother the bottom line in a low voice, and finally said, "Actually, I also want to repair the forehead of the ancestral hall, but it's too eye-catching all together.

"We can only wait until the spring of next year. Then our family will provide money and the clan members will contribute, and we will also be filial to our ancestors."

Tai Sanye was stunned for a long time, waiting to confirm that the old brother was not joking. The little old man jumped three feet high with joy.

"Okay, okay! That's it! Our ancestors have spirits in the sky, and we will definitely keep our Tai family safe!"

Zhuzhu was lying on her grandfather's back, secretly nibbling snacks, when she was suddenly startled by the fried third grandfather, and she secretly poked her little head out and glanced at him again and again.

Tai Sanye couldn't bear it anymore and ran to the ancestral hall to offer incense to his ancestors and tell him the good news.

Leaving Mr. Tai to continue wandering around with his granddaughter on his back, he was thinking about the affairs of the Liu family and thinking about how to deal with it.

As a result, three days passed in a flash, and there was no movement from the Liu family.
