Traveling through ancient times
Chapter 82 Visiting
Carpenter Li was stunned for a moment. No one in the village wanted a cupboard. He was wondering what a cupboard should look like!
Seeing that the ground was covered with dirt, Gu Dalian picked up a piece of scrap wood and started drawing. In fact, it was a simple cupboard from later times.
There are four layers above and below, which can be used to store bowls, chopsticks, food, and seasonings. The bottom layer can be used to store rice and noodles!
Carpenter Li understood and said, "This needs to be made now. If you need anything else, I can make it for you!"
Gu Dalian thought for a moment and said, "I see you have quite a lot of things here. I want two cabinets, a table, six stools, and two clothes hangers. Please calculate how much they cost and send them to me first!"
Carpenter Li did the math and found that the wood was carried back from the mountains, so he didn't have to pay for it, but he asked for wages. Six stools cost twenty cents, a table cost twenty cents, two wardrobes cost one hundred cents, and two clothes hangers cost sixty cents, a total of two hundred cents!
Upon hearing this, Widow Sun clapped her hands and said, "Niece Dalian, Li Laoshi is asking for a very reasonable price. He only wants the wages, not the materials! I said Li Laoshi is a good person!"
Gu Dalian was a little stunned. Although she didn't know how to convert the money here, one penny here should be about the same as fifty cents in her previous life.
There are so many things, real logs, and only 100 yuan, which is a very reasonable price!
Gu Dalian smiled, her face full of sincerity:
"Thank you for your care, Uncle Li. Please help deliver it to my yard and then help build the cupboard in my yard. I will draw the rest for you when I think of it. Is that okay with you?"
As he said that, he took out two hundred coins from his sleeve and handed them to Carpenter Li. This was the money his second brother had given him since he knew there was a space for him to keep!
Carpenter Li was able to do it. He went to the side of the house, pulled the flatbed truck over, and carefully placed the wardrobe, clothes hangers, table and benches on it. He called out:
"Hey, wife, watch the door. I'm going to deliver the things!"
A woman who looked to be in her forties came out of the main house. She was wearing a brown shorts with a few patches on her body.
Following behind was a boy of about two or three years old, who was clean and tidy. Although he was not white, he had a chubby face and a pair of round eyes, looking very cute!
The woman greeted Widow Sun: "Sister, you are out so early? Have you eaten yet?"
Widow Sun is always enthusiastic and has a hearty laugh:
"We've eaten, we've eaten. Brother Qiang has to go to the academy, so it's time to eat early! Xing'er, take Hu Zi home to play when you have nothing to do!"
Gu Dalian didn't say she was leaving. She walked over and touched the child's face curiously and said with a smile:
"Oh, this child is so cute, little darling, what's your name? Sister will give you some candy!"
As he spoke, he held up an unwrapped fruit candy in his hand. The child's eyes sparkled and he happily reached out to grab it, saying in a baby voice, "Axe (tiger)!"
He put the candy in the child's hand, patted his head, and then walked ahead with Widow Sun with a smile, raising his hand and waving to Zhao Xing'er: "Aunt, I'm leaving!"
Carpenter Li pulled the furniture to Gu Dalian's house. Gu Wenzhi and Luo Feimo were already at home. They helped put the furniture away. Gu Xiaolian had already prepared dinner and invited everyone to eat!
Widow Sun hurriedly said she had eaten and left with a smile. She told the two sisters to bring their brother to her house to play when they had time.
Carpenter Li refused to eat and just said that he would go back and get the tools to repair furniture and start working!
It was around seven or eight in the morning. Gu Xiaolian steamed a few big sweet potatoes and made porridge. Little Gu Lun couldn't eat spicy food, so she stir-fried some sour cabbage, which tasted sweet, soft, sour, crispy and refreshing!
The weather is good these days, so Carpenter Li can just work in the yard!
Gu Dalian also wanted to make a few wooden racks for drying herbs. The yard is so big, there is plenty of space!
Luo Feimo now feels inexplicably moved whenever he sees Gu Dalian. Sometimes he feels so ashamed of himself!
This girl is only twelve years old and hasn't developed yet. Why am I always thinking about her?
My heart beat faster when I saw her, but when I couldn't see her, I inexplicably wondered if this woman had magical powers and could she be a monster from the mountains?
Even if it is a monster, it is a good, kind-hearted monster!
Gu Dalian felt two burning gazes staring at her. When she looked up, she saw Luo Feimo beside Gu Wenzhi looking at her with a deep gaze, which contained some kind of friendship!
Gu Dalian's scalp tingled. Although she was a nymphomaniac, she could only admire him from afar. This boy was handsome and every part of him met her aesthetic standards, and that was all!
Ever since she was hurt by a scumbag in her previous life, she swore to live for herself and never fall in love again!
What's more, her soul is that of an old aunt, and she really can't eat this young man of fifteen or sixteen. In this life, besides protecting her family, her only job is to make money!
After dinner, Gu Dalian thought about taking her sister and little Gu Lun out for a walk to familiarize themselves with the village environment. From now on, this would be their base!
"Second brother, you guys wait for Carpenter Li, the three of us are going to go out for a walk!"
She greeted Gu Wenzhi and without waiting for her second brother's response, she walked out the door holding little Gu Lun's hand, with Gu Xiaolian jumping and skipping in front of her!
I still remember that Widow Sun said that she lived at the west end of the village. They themselves were in the west of the village, so Widow Sun should be nearby!
I raised my head and looked around, and I saw a ravine diagonally opposite. After walking a few steps across the ravine, I saw a small courtyard surrounded by thick branches at the foot of the mountain. There were two earthen caves dug out of the mountain wall, and I walked across the ravine!
When she got closer, she found the gate was closed. Gu Xiaolian stretched her neck and called out, "Is anyone there? Is anyone home?" After waiting for a long while, no one came out!
The two turned around and walked back, and heard a cheerful voice above the cave, "Oh, it's my niece Dalian, Lian, wait a moment, I'll be down soon!"
The three of them looked up and saw Widow Sun carrying a bundle of firewood on the top of the kiln, walking down a stepped slope.
The firewood was made of branches as thick as arms, tied so tightly that one person could not hold it. She carried it as if there was nothing on her back, and she looked very strong!
Widow Sun walked very fast, and in a short time she came down the slope. She took out the hook from the gate, pushed it open, and walked inside, saying:
"Come on, come on in, you three sisters, have dinner at my place today, I'll make you some pancakes later!"
Gu Dalian said with a smile: "Aunt, we just had dinner. Didn't you ask us to come to your place yesterday? Let's take advantage of the free time now and come over to visit!"
The courtyard is not big, but it is tidy enough!
Widow Sun pushed open the door on her right and walked in. It was pitch black inside!
However, Gu Dalian had good eyesight and could see that there was a storage room and also a kitchen inside.
There were all sorts of things placed on the side of the kiln, as well as some farm tools and even a wheelbarrow. Behind it was a lot of firewood piled up. Widow Sun walked straight to the back, piled the firewood on top and walked out!
A stove was built with stones and mud at the door, with bowls and chopsticks neatly placed next to it. Everything in the kiln was arranged neatly!
Widow Sun came out, walked to the cave next door, opened the door and said, "Come on, you three sisters, come in quickly, go in slowly, it's dark in the house, be careful not to trip!"
Gu Dalian picked up little Gu Lun and went in first. The door was wide open, and the room was not too dark. What caught her eye was a big stone bed, which was laid out neatly with grass and mud.
There was a straw mat on the floor and a neatly folded quilt on the corner of the kang. There was no furniture here either. It could be said that the house was bare!
Widow Sun skillfully lit a fire and boiled water on the stove at the head of the kang, and said with a smile, "Don't be disgusted, sisters. Come and sit on the kang. My family is poor, so I'll boil some water for you to drink!"
