The next day, Xu Shuncheng took Xu Yier and Xu Qiaojun into the city again, and spent money to hire an ox cart."
Daddy, it's not good to hire other people's ox carts like this, so it's better for our family to make an ox cart."
Xu Qiaojun lazily fell into Xu Yi'er's arms, this ox cart was too simple, and she entered the city for two days in a row, which made her whole body sore.Recently, she didn't plan to come to the city again, so she had to recuperate at home.Xu Shuncheng thought for a while and said, "Okay, I'll ask someone to buy cattle tomorrow." ”The father and daughter entered the city and went straight to the old store of the Wang family.There is still more than half an hour before noon, there are no customers in the store, the helpers are preparing for the opening of the market, there are helpers, the proprietress does not have to do everything herself, explained a few words, and came out of the kitchen to see the father and daughter of the Xu family."
Boss, this is my eldest sister Xu Yi'er."
Xu Qiaojun took Xu Yier's hand and walked over.The proprietress looked Xu Yi'er up and down, her appearance was delicate, her eyes were soft, her clothes were neat and clean, in terms of appearance, this was a good child, and she smiled, "Yi'er, I'll take a look at the buckle you made." ”Xu Yier opened the small cloth bag in her hand, took out the buckle inside, and handed it to the proprietress .The proprietress took the buckles, all of them were extremely simple buckles, only a pair of long knots and flat weaves were combined, but they were a little rough, and the thread was not very good, she smiled faintly and asked: "Who taught you this pair of buckles" "No one taught me, I came up with it myself." ”Xu Yier said timidly."
The buckle is made up of these knots, and adding them together to look good is the ability and the craft."
The proprietress looked at Xu Yi'er, her eyes were a little appreciative, to do a good job of buckles, not only to be skillful, but also to be skillful, "Are you willing to learn from me" "Yes, I am willing." ”Xu Yi'er's face was full of joy.The proprietress accepted Xu Yier as an apprentice and made an appointment to teach her to make a buckle every day.It was too hard to come out of Sanjia Village every day, so Xu Shuncheng went to find Xu Zhicheng and wanted Xu Yier to live in his house temporarily.Xu Zhicheng and Chen Sanmei were naturally willing, so they hurriedly packed up their rooms and waited for her to move in.Xu Yier went to the city to study art, and there was one less capable eldest daughter in the family, Lu Chunjiao wanted to do more, her face was gloomy for several days, and then she shouted that it was uncomfortable here, uncomfortable there, and she couldn't get up in bed.Xu Shuncheng looked at her and frowned, and didn't tear her down, "Do you want to ask Dr.
Zhao to come over and show you?"
"No, no, I just feel tired, just lie down." ”Lu Chunjiao was reluctant to spend that unnecessary money."
Then you can lie down."
Xu Shuncheng threw away this sentence and went to the vegetable garden with a hoe.So Lu Chunjiao really had to lie down on the bed and didn't care about everything.At noon, Xu Jiaer finished cooking and came in and called her, "Mother, the rice is cooked, you can come out and eat." ”"I don't want to eat, you cook some lean porridge for me to eat."
Lu Chunjiao said with her eyes closed.Xu Jiaer went out to cook porridge in response, the conditions at home were good, and the pork that she bought in the morning was not troublesome.Xu Shuncheng shook his head again, the older this woman gets, the more she loves to mess around, she actually pretends to be sick, I really don't know what her brain is thinking about After a while, the porridge was cooked, Xu Qiaojun sent it to Lu Chunjiao, looking at Lu Chunjiao, who was wrapped in a headscarf and lying on the bed humming, she rolled her eyes speechlessly, although she was tired of Lu Chunjiao having nothing to do, she couldn't help but paste the bowl in her hand on her face, and she couldn't bear the irritability in her heart, and said, "Mother, get up and eat porridge." ”Lu Chunjiao sat up and took the bowl, "What about your father?"
"Dad went to Fuyuan." ”Xu Qiaojun said."
What about Jia'er," Lu Chunjiao asked again.Xu Qiaojun glanced at the porridge she was holding in her hand, the corners of her lips rose slightly, and said, "Bao'er is going to poop, and the second sister has taken him to the thatched house." ”When Lu Chunjiao heard this, she didn't show an expression of difficulty swallowing as Xu Qiaojun expected, she finished the bowl of porridge with a grunt, and handed the empty bowl back to Xu Qiaojun, "Go and scoop another bowl." ”Xu Qiaojun pursed her lips, her appetite was really good.After the autumn harvest, there are many things, either this family is making tiles, or the family is marrying a daughter-in-law, or it is a big birthday, of course, there are two old people who are old and drive the crane west.Lu Chunjiao pretended to be sick in bed for three days, and later because someone in the village got married and asked her to help, she "recovered" and went out in good spirits.Regarding Lu Chunjiao's inexplicable behavior, Xu Qiaojun didn't think too much, if she thought too much, she would become the same as her, and her brain circuit was different from ordinary people.After Xu Qiaojun waited for Lu Chunjiao to leave, he took Xu Baoer to Li's house.With Xu Baoer to relieve Li Xu and Zhao Lingling's boredom, she doesn't have to tell jokes to them, and she doesn't have to answer Xu Baoer's messy questions, she can read books quietly.Xu Shuncheng has not paid attention to Lu Chunjiao, he has a lot of things to do, first asked someone to widen the gate, and then built a cowshed behind the chicken shed.The backyard, which was originally quite spacious, seemed a little crowded.When the finished carriage is also moved in, it will be even narrower."
Daddy, there's no place for my flowers."
Xu Qiaojun regretted buying the cow, will the smell of cow dung burn her flowers Xu Shuncheng looked at the backyard full of things, "Hey, this house is still narrow." ”"Daddy, let's expand the house, Bao'er has grown up, it's time to divide the house.Those cold flowers must also be moved to the house, or they will freeze to death. ”Xu Qiaojun rubbed her hands, this year seems to be colder than last year, and before the beginning of winter, she put on a small cotton coat.Xu Shuncheng frowned distressedly, "It's so wide, there's no room to expand." ”"Can you discuss with the fifth grandmother and Uncle Wencai to buy them a little land?"
asked Xu Qiaojun.Xu Shuncheng thought for a moment and said, "I'll ask." ”After this question, I learned that Xu Wu's grandmother was old, and her eldest daughter was not worried about letting her live alone in Sanjia Village, and wanted to take her over to support her, planning to sell the house.This is really if you want to fall asleep, someone will send a pillow.Xu Shuncheng went to the village chief and the patriarch, and after the two families discussed, they spent twelve taels of silver to buy the house of Xu Wu's grandmother.When Grandma Xu Wu left, she dug up all the herbs she planted in the courtyard, leaving a large vacant land for Xu Qiaojun, which saved her trouble.Xu Shuncheng found someone to tear down the partition wall, and according to Xu Qiaojun's request, rebuilt the south house.Two rooms were added next to the east house, which were connected to the Xu family's previous house.The east house was given to Xu Yi'er to live in, two newly built rooms, one each for Xu Jiaer and Xu Qiaojun, and Xu Baoer moved into the house they lived in before.The men of the Xu family helped Xu Qiaojun move a pot of flowers into the south house, and placed them on the flower stand in a staggered manner, in front of the wooden window, there was a wooden table, and there was a pen, ink, paper and inkstone on the table.Except for one less speaker, this south room is furnished like her modern flower room.Xu Qiaojun stood in the middle of the south house, smelling the fragrance of plants and trees, and the bits and pieces of modernity poured into his mind, and burst into tears.------ digression------ I want to go to my uncle's house to pay New Year's greetings on the fourth day of the new year, and I uploaded it in advance
