Chapter 11

An Dalang, who has a daughter-in-law, only after a few days, his face looks much better. He can eat fresh hot meals for three meals a day, and he is still full. This big-boned An Dalang Lang immediately recovered his sturdy strength.If you think about the fact that a wild boar weighing two hundred catties was able to carry it all the way to Zhao's house, you will know how strong An Dalang is.

Now the husband and wife are busy making a kang and making an earthen stove. This is to keep the family warm in the winter, and An Dalang is naturally working harder.Don't think that the one-time transfer of knowledge in this grocery store can only be done to Zhao Yiyi and An Dalang, and it will be useless. If this knowledge is in people's minds, can't they say it?An Dalang is still able to learn!In just ten days, a big kang was built where the big wooden bed was originally placed, and an earthen stove was placed near the door, the kind of stove with an iron pot and a large earthen pot for warm water. .Because the earth kang is relatively large, even the earthen stove is not small. The position of the two iron pots is to prepare all the pots for cooking and frying. With warm water, it is very convenient to cook rice once, and even hot water can be prepared.

The place where the stove and the earthen kang are connected is separated by a half-height earthen wall, which connects the two places. This is set up to save firewood in winter. There is a hole under the earthen stove that communicates with the earthen kang. When it is not in use in summer, it only needs to be blocked with an earth brick.

An Dalang saw that the house was getting more and more decent, and he felt very happy. He tossed and pulled out the wood that was used to make the bed, and changed it again, making two shelf-like cabinets. Having this thing is better than putting everything on the stone platform. At least a piece of burlap can be placed on it as a curtain, and it looks tidy.Put the cabinet next to the crockery where the food was placed, and left and right, each place has a space, and then put the leather box that I took, and Zhao Yiyi's dowry box under the cabinet, from this moment on. , This corner is my own storage room.

After finishing all this, An Dalang is so beautiful in his heart!This is home!The newly-made gate, the earthen stove with two iron pots, the big kang with thick mattresses and quilts, and the burlap just bought by the wife, which is to make winter clothes for him, what a meter It is really very spacious, five feet wide and three feet three inches long, much finer than the ordinary cloth outside, looking at this size, it can be made into a robe.There are also six colors to choose from, black, blue, green, white, red, pink, and this color is very positive, let’s say the blue cloth newly bought by my daughter-in-law, he likes it very much when I look at it, my daughter-in-law Said it was called lake blue.Thinking that he will soon have new clothes, An Dalang wants to grin when he sleeps.

There is also the bag of white rice in the newly added large tank. With so much grain, this is the guarantee that he can have enough food every day recently!With his stature, it's really not much to eat three bowls of rice in one meal!It's already very controlled. If you eat it vigorously, maybe five bowls will do.

It's just that his family had enough to eat, and An Dalang couldn't help but think about other things, thinking about helping the Lin family and the Yue family. You know what his wife said, but no one knows about the grocery store except himself. Yes, isn't the mother-in-law and brother-in-law also hungry right now?An Dalang felt a little guilty in his heart.He also knew about the family background of the Yue family, but it was very bad, and the brother-in-law looked very thin!There is no longer a man who is the head of the family, so I should care more about it!Did you send some rice to them too?
To say that this rice is really good!He originally thought that if yellow rice could be produced at such a cheap price, it would be pie in the sky, but he didn't expect it to be white rice. This kind of rice is a good thing that only rich people can afford outside. !Although broken.

Besides An Dalang's mind, he actually has a lot of puzzles about this grocery store. For example, he has never heard of the saying of what a catty is, but he has his own way. A hunter like him has a sense of proportion. , as soon as he weighed it, he knew that the so-called 100 catties was probably more than eight buckets. After such a calculation, it was still too cheap. Sometimes he even wondered, could it be the gods in the sky who converted these two weights? Something went wrong, which is why there is such a price.

When I ate the haggis soup made by Zhao Yiyi at night, and heard Zhao Yiyi muttering that if I knew I could eat haggis soup, I should have bought some flour so that I could make pancakes, make steamed buns with haggis, and so on. I feel more and more that my current life is so beautiful that I can't even say it. Thinking about the Lin family and the Yue family, I can't help but say:
"Daughter-in-law, how much money do you have in that shop? Why don't we buy another bag of flour. Get some of this white rice and send some to the Lin family and mother-in-law, so that they can also have a few dry meals."

When Zhao Yiyi heard this, she was overwhelmed. Really, she actually forgot about her mother's family. After all, she was not the original owner. She was just a person who occupied this body. She couldn't treat that family like the original owner in her mind. There is no attachment, but thinking about what that stepmother and younger brother did when she got married, Zhao Yiyi couldn't help but secretly blamed herself, what happened to her, why was she so cold-blooded, could it be that she forgot what they did to her? That's it!

Thinking of these things, Zhao Yiyi couldn't help thinking about it:
"I still have 360 ​​yuan here, and 280 yuan for flour. It is enough to buy one bag, and the rice at home is less than three liters. In this way, you can find two bags, and the family will give two buckets. By the way, give gifts to odd numbers No, you are going to chop some bamboo tomorrow and make two bamboo tubes. I will buy two catties of salt, one catty for each family. This thing is too expensive in the town. You go to the Lin family first. They have patients and always It's more urgent, we will go to my mother's house again in a few days, I want to save some more money and buy two pieces of cloth in the shop to make clothes for my mother and younger brother."

This is Zhao Yiyi's gesture of going back to her mother's house to visit relatives. An Dalang naturally nodded. Since he lost his father, there is no other family to walk around except the Lin family. Now that there are more relatives like the Yue family, he is also happy Very, just thinking about it in a blink of an eye, the daughter-in-law is preparing to make new clothes for herself, and the mother-in-law and brother-in-law of the Yue family are also new clothes, so why didn't she prepare for herself?
"Daughter-in-law, what about yourself! Why don't you make one too, isn't there pink cloth? You must look good in pink."

Hearing her man say that she was good-looking, Zhao Yiyi blushed a little, then pouted angrily, and retorted:

"Didn't I have a new dress? It was when I got married. It was a complete set! There are clothes, skirts, and new shoes. There is still a need to make new ones. It will be winter in another month, and I will make winter clothes soon." You can still spend like this there, if you don’t know how to save money, your life is too loose.”

Although he asked his wife to talk about it, An Dalang was very happy in his heart. His daughter-in-law was distressed that he didn't even have a new dress when he got married!This is to make up for himself, An Dalang's heart is full of joy, and then think about the two old cotton coats bought by his wife, the cotton inside is warmer than catkins and reed flowers, even if they are old, He looked as good as the new ones. After doing this calculation, I have a lot of new clothes this year, which is really good!
"Hey, you have the final say."

An Dalang earnestly carried out the purpose of listening to his wife and eating meat, and put a large piece of lamb liver into Zhao Yiyi's bowl with a smile. The daughter-in-law is getting thinner, so she should eat more and wait for next year Consummating the house, it won't take long for me to be a father!
