There are women in the farm family who are good at farming

Chapter 13 Qiao's jealousy
Lian Fangzhou felt a little bit regretful, and after she agreed to do the calculation, she realized that there are no Arabic numerals in this country. Seeing that Laocai Shi really asked that question, she smiled slightly, and said a little embarrassedly: "Actually, it's me. Just random symbols."

"Oh..." Shi Laocai didn't know whether he believed it or not, so he couldn't help but asked again: "How did Miss Lian calculate it so quickly?"

Lian Fangzhou laughed "puchi" and said, "Mental arithmetic!"

There are all kinds of wonders in the world, and some people are born with mental arithmetic, which is not impossible.Shi Laocai sighed with a smile: "Little brother has opened his eyes today! I have lived for most of my life, and I have never seen a person who is so good at mental arithmetic. Even the girl is really good!"

"It's a small skill, but I can't afford your boast!" Lian Fangzhou smiled modestly and said again: "This figure is clear, we should go back!"

"Hehe, wait, wait!" Shi Laocai readily agreed, and with a wave of his hand, he summoned two workers, ordered them to sort out the tiles they needed, and helped them load them into the car.

A large cart can't be filled, and it may take three or four trips to finish it. The total is two taels of silver, and the [-]% discount is one tael or six taels of money. Lian Fangzhou smiled and said thank you.

Shi Laocai said "should" with a smile, and praised her for being polite.

Because the family also needed help unloading the cart, Lian Fangzhou and Lian Ze followed the bullock cart back. Naturally, the siblings were not in the cart on the return trip, but walked beside them.

Li Damu originally asked his siblings to sit on the side of the car, but even Fangzhou and Lianze insisted on refusing.

Li Damu was very sorry, and wanted to ask them to get in the car, but even Fangzhou refused to say anything: "I will trouble Uncle Li all day today, and this cow is also expensive. If you are tired, don't say it is you, we It will also hurt, so save it!"

Li Damu couldn't say anything all of a sudden, he sighed and said with a smile: "Forget it, Fangzhou, you are getting better and better at talking, and you can talk one after another! I can't say anything to you, and I will accompany you let's go!"

As he said that, he also jumped out of the driving position.

Lian Fangzhou and Lian Ze couldn't say much, so the three of them looked at each other and laughed.

The ox carts moved slowly, and they had to load and unload the carts, and they were busy until the sun went down.It was Aunt Zhang, Li Juan and Zhao who also came to help unload the car.

"Tomorrow should also be sunny, so don't delay! Tomorrow, Sanhe and I will help you replace all the new tiles! By the way, pick up the old tiles too.

The so-called picking up means overhauling.

Lian Fangzhou thanked him with a smile.

The next day was another full day of work before the roof was completely repaired.

"The thick hemp paper used to paste the windows is only sold in the county town. At the end of the month, your Aunt Zhang will go to the market. Come along and see if there are other things you need to buy. Let's buy them together!" Li Damu road.

Even Fangzhou had the same intention, so he agreed with a smile, thanking again and again.

Looking up at the brand-new roof, a sense of accomplishment and sense of steadfastness emerged spontaneously. Lian Ze also heaved a sigh of relief, and couldn't help saying: "This is great, I am no longer afraid of heavy rain! I am no longer afraid of winter! "

Lian Fangzhou smiled and said: "Yes! After finishing the windows, buy two quilts, pull some thick fabrics and save them for winter clothes, so you don't have to worry about winter—don't worry, it's only the end of September! time!"

"Well," Lian Ze nodded with a smile: "I listen to my sister for everything! But, what is a quilt?"

Lian Ze asked a little confused.

"What?" Lian Fangzhou couldn't believe her ears, she stared at him with wide eyes and said, "What did you say?"

"I—" Lian Ze was a little frightened by her expression, and was speechless for a while.

Lian Fangzhou realized that, he quickly slowed down his expression and said, "Say it again?"

Lian Ze glanced at her strangely, and said, "I'm asking my sister what a quilt is. I've never heard of it! Is it... very expensive?"

quilt?very expensive?
Lian Fangzhou wanted to cry, but hurriedly said, "Have you never heard of cotton quilts? Do you know what cotton is?"

"Cotton..." Lian Ze shook his head and asked, "What kind of flower is that? Is it beautiful? Is the fruit delicious?"

Lian Fangzhou was stunned. Could it be that there was no cotton in this dynasty?She touched the clothes on her body, it was made of fine linen.It seems that the quilt cover and bed sheets are also made of this material, so——

"Then what's inside the quilt we're covering?" Lian Fangzhou asked hastily.

Lian Ze looked at her even more strangely, but still replied: "Of course it's kapok, reed flower and hemp, otherwise what does my sister think? Sister, you will not forget this common sense, right?"

Lian Fangzhou's mind was in a mess, ignoring the doubts in his words, he hurriedly asked again: "Are other people's quilts stuffed with these things?"

"Of course!" Lian Ze nodded as a matter of course, and said: "Not all of them, I heard that the rich man's home, the quilt is stuffed with silk."

It seems that there is no such plant as cotton in this era.This is really...

Lian Fangzhou suddenly had a feeling of emptiness in his heart, that feeling of being emptied of familiar things.

She couldn't help but blurted out: "Is that kind of quilt warm? Can I live through winter..."

"Puchi!" Lian Ze couldn't help laughing out loud, and said, "Sister, haven't you been here for so many years?"

Lian Fangzhou was taken aback, and laughed himself, nodded and said with a smile: "That's right! I'm so confused! Look what I'm talking about!"

Do as the Romans do, she secretly said to herself in her heart.

"We've been exhausted for the past two days. We'll have a day off tomorrow, and the day after tomorrow I'll go to the field with you to harvest sweet potatoes and taro." Lian Fangzhou laughed.

Although Lian Ze was also tired, he seemed unwilling to rest, and said, "How about, my sister will rest at home tomorrow, and I will go first by myself."

"No!" Lian Fangzhou flatly refused, and said with a smile: "You are still young, and when you are growing up, you can't overwork. If you hurt the root cause, you will ruin your life. I can't work anymore!"

Lian Ze heard that she was serious and didn't seem to be fooling himself, so he nodded and agreed.

In the past two days, Lian Fangzhou and the others have been very busy buying new tiles and repairing the roof. When Mrs. Qiao found out, she was filled with jealousy and annoyed, and kept muttering next to Lian Li: "What's the air? I've never seen such a shallow eyelid." The person who got two coins in his hand is so grandiose to show off, as if no one has it! Huh, if someone gives back the money you took, you have to spend it willingly, and you don’t have to be ashamed! If you can’t get married in this life, then It's so beautiful!"

Lian Li couldn't help feeling annoyed when she heard her muttering these words over and over again, so he snorted, "What's the use of saying this now? You're useless too, you can't even deal with a girl! It's a shame to be here Speak!"

Knowing that he was talking about the fact that he failed to get the ten taels of divorce money, Qiao was annoyed, remorseful and heartbroken, and shouted angrily: "You only talk about me! Why didn't you go when you were so capable!"

Lian Li pointed to himself and said, "I'll go? How can I go! My uncle snatched something from my niece, what should I say if someone finds out?"

Mrs. Qiao didn't take it seriously, and snorted: "What are you afraid of! Who knows what happened when the door is closed? Those little carrots dare to go outside? Even if they yell, who will talk about the children's family? Will believe it!"

The more Qiao Shi thought about it, the more regretful she became, and she whispered, "In the end, it's just you who dare not dare..."

She said angrily again: "Twelve taels! It's worth more than half a year's expenses, so what if someone says a few words? No, I can't make them too cheap! I have to go and see!"

Mrs. Qiao went straight to Lian Fangzhou's house, and said neither sour nor cold: "Hey, you sisters and sisters are getting more and more capable, and even the house has been repaired! Tsk tsk, it's amazing!"
