Chapter 16 Warm House
The next morning, the carpentry workshop delivered all the furniture she ordered to Bai Taotao early.

Even though it only cost three taels of silver to build the house, because Bai Taotao left home without a clean life and others lived with bare bones, she had to start from brick by brick, so in addition to building the house, she also had to buy furniture.

A set of furniture for the whole house is not cheap, so she chose furniture made of the cheapest wood. She would not dare to look at expensive furniture.

In this case, the cheapest one cost the same amount of money as building the house, so she also spent six taels of silver on the inside and outside of the house.

Fortunately, we don't pay attention to hard decoration at this time, otherwise we would have to spend a lot of money.

Of course, this doesn't include buying other things, which together cost almost half a tael of silver.

Then Quilt told Bai Taotao's family that they would prepare the tables and chairs for the meal, and these Bai Taotao still didn't cost any money.

Sure enough, it is easy for people to spend money and hard to make money at any time.

Building a house is the fastest way to spend money.

The furniture was delivered and installed in a whole morning.

After lunch, in the afternoon, the Bai family brought the new quilts, tables and chairs that had been prepared, and came over to warm the Baitaotao house in a lively manner.

The rules of house warming are that stoves need to be placed in every room in the house, and the stoves need to burn for a whole day, that is, from this afternoon to tomorrow afternoon.

From a distance, Mrs. Chen Liu looked at the newly built house at the end of the village and smoke curled up from the kitchen. She held her mouth and kept mumbling.

"You little bitch, you are buying land to build a new house and furniture. Your little money is enough for you to struggle for a few days. Sooner or later, you will be crying and begging to come back. I also broke off the relationship to let you know that you will leave us. Let’s see how many days you can live a good life alone.”

After Chen Liu finished speaking, the little daughter Chen Xiaohua beside her said: "Mom, you are really serious, the money that third brother bought with his life, you just gave it to her to lose like this, and you are still thinking about her begging to come back? What's the use of all the money when she begs to come back? Then she will bring a bottle of oil. Why does our family want a woman like this to come? The little money we gave her can be given to the second brother. I bought a yellow-flowered girl and came back to be my wife, why do I need a woman like her?"

A few days ago, after hearing that the third sister-in-law of her natal family had severed ties with her parents and moved out alone, Chen Liu's youngest daughter Chen Xiaohua quickly found an excuse to go back to her natal family while taking advantage of the Baitaotao family's warm house today.

She thought she could go to Baitaotao's house to have a meal of meat when she came back, but she didn't eat the meat and was dragged by her mother to work in the fields for a day.

After listening to her daughter's words, Mrs. Chen Liu glanced at her sideways: "Your second brother chose it by himself. What can I do? You thought I wanted to give her the money I gave her. That woman was also lucky at that time, and she happened to meet the county magistrate. The master came here to do something, and the county magistrate master is supporting her. How can I not give it to her if I don’t give it to her? That day, your mother and I almost died. "

Chen Youcai's desire to marry Bai Taotao was indeed his own request. Originally, Chen Deyi and his wife planned to buy him a wife after receiving Chen Youyi's pension.

But in the end, Chen Youcai decided to marry Bai Taotao, so that he could save money on buying a wife.

When Chen Deyi and his wife heard this, how could they refuse such a good thing?

Chen Xiaohua looked surprised when she heard this, and then started to complain: "No, what is the second brother thinking? Huanghua's eldest daughter doesn't want a woman with a big belly, and the child in the woman's belly is not him. of!"

"And the county magistrate has to take care of family affairs? He almost killed you? When did this woman become so powerful? When she married into our family, I didn't realize that she had any extraordinary abilities. The magistrate is helping her, so she won’t have any shameful things with the magistrate, right?"

"I heard that she went to the county government office alone a few days ago and stayed at the county government office for almost an hour. What do you think she could do to stay in the county government office for an hour?"

Speaking of this, Chen Xiaohua became more and more courageous. After thinking for a while, she said: "Mom, do you think the child in that woman's belly could be..."

"Hua'er, shut up now. You've already bitten the county magistrate. If you don't want to live, don't hurt the whole family." Chen Xiaohua's husband Li Dalang happened to hear what she said and hurriedly persuaded her. .

When he said this, Chen Xiaohua quickly shut up, but Chen Liu suddenly had an idea in her heart because of Chen Xiaohua's words.

Bai Taotao, who was busy warming up the house at home, had no idea that she had been labeled as a thief.

In the evening, Bai Taotao wanted to make a table of delicious food and entertain her family, but she was stopped again by Bai Zhou. "You have just built a house, bought land, and bought furniture. You spent a lot of money on it. The little money you have should be saved for when the child is born. We don't eat at night, so don't do it at night. Tomorrow at noon Just do it again. Don’t do it too well, we’re all a family, just eat whatever you want.”

Bai Taotao actually wanted to eat it herself, so she had no choice but to say: "Then cook some noodles. I'm pregnant. I won't be able to sleep if I don't eat at night. I had never been out before and could only carry it. Now I can live by myself, so why bother saving it?" I feel sorry for the child."

Bai Zhoushi: "Mom, go get you a bowl of noodles. You can eat it alone."

Bai Taotao: "No, if you want to eat, you can eat it. If you don't want to eat it, you can't eat it."

Seeing her daughter's attitude, Mrs. Bai had no choice but to compromise, and finally took her daughters-in-law to cook a pot of noodles.

I also added an egg to Bai Taotao.

And their noodles are less noodles and more water.

When Bai Taotao saw it, she could only express her helplessness.

As a mother, she saves food for her because she feels sorry for her.

However, when she makes money in the future, she will no longer have to worry about these problems.

After dinner, men and women slept in separate rooms. Bai Dachuan and Bai Zhou would get up from time to time to add some firewood to the stove at night to keep it burning.

At noon on the second day, Bai Taotao finally had the opportunity to cook a delicious meal for her family.

However, in order to prevent her family from worrying about her lavish spending, she only used cheap vegetables to cook.

There is a pork belly and chicken soup, braised pork ribs, fatty fish, stir-fried pork liver and kidneys, a plate of braised pork cheeks as a side dish, and coarse-grain steamed buns as the staple food.

It’s so rich and you don’t have to worry about spending too much money, and your family can eat with peace of mind.

When her family left in the afternoon, Bai Taotao packed up all the leftovers.

They say they are leftovers, but they are all Bai Taotao had saved in advance.

Fortunately, it was all food made by pigs. Bai Zhou also knew that her daughter could not eat so much by herself, and it would be spoiled tomorrow if she couldn't eat it. It would be a waste by then, so she did not refuse.

Finally, the whole family reluctantly left.

Bai Taotao couldn't bear to leave her family, so she sent them out of the village, and then turned around to go home.

As soon as I walked from the village entrance to the village, I didn't expect to meet one of the people I least wanted to see, Chen Liu.

As soon as Chen Liu saw Bai Taotao, she immediately began to curse.

"You are a money-loser, you are using my son's money to support your parents' family. I shouldn't have given you all the money in the first place. It was the money my son paid for with his life. Please give me the money back."

With that said, Mrs. Chen Liu rushed towards Bai Taotao, trying to get all the money back from Bai Taotao while no one was around.

As a result, Bai Taotao had expected this move, and then dodged away. Chen Liu jumped directly into the air, then somersaulted forward and fell forward, and was very lucky to land face first. In the end, not only did she not touch a single hair of Bai Taotao, but she also ate a mouthful of mud and had several cuts on her face.
