Bai Xuefeng stood in place, Lin Yuan brought over the ox cart, and then Bai Xuefeng sat on it, and the two of them went to the brick factory together to leave.As soon as Lin Yuan left, Lin Xi asked Bai Xuepeng again: "This uncle, Lin Xi still has something to trouble Uncle here." ”"What is our relationship, what do I say to your uncle, if you have any requirements, you can say it."
Bai Xuepeng replied very briskly."
That's right, our family needs wooden beams to build a house, but we don't know where to sell suitable timber.""
It's not easy, if you use wood, you can go to the surrounding mountains and cut some of it, and you don't have to spend money to buy wooden beams."
Bai Xuepeng casually thought of an idea for Lin Xi.Bai Xuepeng's suggestion is very good, but Lin Xi's family's house building project is urgent, and it can't be delayed any longer, and the wood cut from the mountain is wet and can't be dried for the time being, and if it can't be dried, it still can't be used.Lin Xi, who hesitated, then explained to Bai Xuepeng: "That's the uncle, what you said is right, but those woods are wet when cut from the mountain, and they won't dry for a while, but building a house here is urgent, so you can only go to a place that specializes in selling wood to buy some." ”Only then did Bai Xuepeng understand why Lin Xi went to buy timber, which is also understandable, the autumn harvest is about to begin, and the time for the house built by Lin Xi's family is also very urgent."
There is a place that sells timber, more than ten miles away from here, if you need it, you can go to his place first."
Soon Bai Xuepeng thought of a place to sell timber and gave Lin Xi a choice.Now that there is a place, Lin Xi also agreed."
Okay, this time I want to thank my uncle for going to buy wood, it just so happened that the ox cart just now was also from Grandpa Wang's house, and now there is no ox cart, I'm afraid that my uncle will walk to the halfway to rent a horse-drawn carriage."
Lin Xi knew that it was more than ten miles, and it would take half an hour for people to walk, so he specially advised Bai Xuepeng not to be so tired.It's just a dozen miles away, and Bai Xuepeng doesn't care much if he goes farther."
Hey, it's nothing, just walk to the carriage."
Bai Xuepeng replied unconcernedly.It just so happened that this time I asked Lin Haoyu and Bai Xuepeng to go, and they could still help each other along the way, and they could chat on the boring road, which was not bad.Before leaving, the old woman handed the silver to Bai Xuepeng, and Bai Xuepeng took the silver and went to the place where the timber was sold with Lin Haoyu.Pear Blossom's eldest brother didn't let her do any work, just let Pear Blossom's eldest brother guard it.All the people who came were arranged, and the white wife teamed up with Lihua and the Wang family to make this lunch.However, this is a big pot of vegetables, and people eat a lot, so Gui and Hong washed the cabbage they bought with water again, and several people worked together to cut the cabbage.It's just that the pork on the cutting board hasn't been cut yet, and it just so happened that the old woman Bai also came over, and Hong asked somehow: "Sister Bai, how much do you say it's more appropriate to cut this piece of meat and put it in the pot?"
”You can't eat without being full, and the white wife doesn't want to treat these workers badly, and only if they see the treatment, they will work harder.So the heroic white old woman waved her hand directly: "Cut it all and put it in the pot." ”Looking at the full amount of pork on the vegetable bun, the women who were in charge of cooking almost didn't slow down in one breath."
What, you have to put all this meat into the pot, will this be a little too much, this is really a lot, this is just in time for us to get more meat for the New Year, this is."
Hong said and took a deep breath and tugged at his lips.When the Hong family and these working women looked at the white old woman, the white old woman was also looking at these women, and she didn't miss the surprise on the faces of several women.For putting so much meat is indeed a lot, at least in some people's homes, sometimes only eat a meal during the New Year, even if they build a house, they will not say that they will give workers good food, only take care of their own interests, calculate how much money is in the house, and only blindly think that you can't be lazy when you get paid, and you can take two taels of silver.But the white old woman is different, these people don't eat well every day, so where is the strength to build a house, it can be built in a few days, and then it will be delayed for several days, will this give more wages.However, in a different way, if these workers have enough to eat, they can exert enough strength to work, and the project of building a house can be greatly shortened.Several people looked at each other's eyes, and after looking at each other for a long time, they actually knew what they thought."
My daughter also told me that only when these people eat well will they have the strength to build a house."
The white woman and a few women explained the reason.The main family has spoken, and the women are not asking the white wife, who should cut vegetables and vegetables, make meat, and steam the head of the nest, everyone has been busy for a long time, and it is noon.The white old woman and a few people made a few stoves temporarily, put some wood underneath, and then lit them with fire, Hong and Gui were in charge of this stove, Sun and Wang were in charge of the other stove, and Lejia and Lihua began to prepare to make a pot of dishes.Hong began to add firewood, and Gui poured the prepared piece of meat into the iron pot in one breath and stir-fried the meat back and forth, and when the meat in the pot changed, he poured the chopped Chinese cabbage into the pot in one go, put in the farmhouse condiments, added water to the pot, and finally covered the pot.After a while, the smell of cooking came out of the pot, everyone could smell the fragrance, and the people who worked smelled the smell felt empty in their stomachs.The pot of dishes was finished, and the nest head was ready, and the white old woman asked a few women to call this working person to come for lunch.The women shouted, and the big ones stopped working, threw the supplies in their hands on the ground, and one by one they washed their hands with cold water, and each went to take the cabbage that was served, and took one or two nests, and sat on the ground in a random corner and ate it.The white wife also filled a bowl for the two younger brothers of the Bai family and her father, and the eldest brother of Pear Blossom also gave a bowl.Some of these people who came to work were thick people, even if they rarely ate such a sumptuous lunch, but they were reluctant to eat the meat and vegetables in the bowl, most of them gnawed on the nest in their mouths, and almost after eating one bowl, they did not go to serve the second bowl."
Come on, come on, you're welcome, you've done so much, there's a lot of that in the pot, only if you're full, don't you have the strength to work?"
The white old woman saw through the workers' thoughts, so she had to take the initiative to greet everyone.The big guy still doesn't have the courage, and he still feels a little indebted, just this meat can cover their wages, but I didn't expect the owner to be so generous, and the meat and rice will be paid back.The most different thing is Pear Blossom's eldest brother, Pear Blossom's eldest brother is also here to help, but now not only with salary, but also with such a hearty lunch, how can this serve the second bowl.The white old woman walked directly to a young man and took the young man's empty rice bowl directly."
This is Pear Blossom, her eldest brother, just watched you here and watched everyone work, and you are really meticulous, how can you eat a bowl, can you eat a bowl, don't give us face, I'll serve you a bowl."
After speaking, the white old woman took the bowl and went over to serve the food.Rika's eldest brother glanced at Rika embarrassedly.()
