Rebirth at the starting point of happiness
Chapter 32 Trading
After clearing the snow in the yard, Su Qiuyue climbed onto the roof again to clear the snow as well.
The current roof is made of thatched mud, which is not pressure-resistant. If the snow on it melts, the house will easily leak.
She hadn't done much yet, and just as she had broken off a piece of the eaves, her cousin Xu Hui came.
When his father saw her going up to the room, he quickly called him to come and help.
Xu Hui is very skillful, and does this job every year. He rides directly on the ridge of the house and knocks off the snow crust with his skillful strength.
Soon the snow shell on the roof was broken into pieces, and then they took a thick wooden stick and pushed here and there to push all the snow down.
The rest were kicked down with my feet.
The Su Qiuyue sisters threw the fallen snow into the garden.
When you turn the soil in the spring, you can water less.
After finishing the cleaning, Su Qiuyue made an agreement with her cousin that when the weather got warmer, he would help her build a stove on the east side of the yard so that she could make ointments in the future.
Because they planned to raise chickens this year, Su Qiuyue and her sister made a fence with branches.
Then we fenced off an area near the vegetable garden where we could raise the chicks.
"Sister, I want to build a house for Dahuang." Xinyue and Su Qiuyue said.
"Build a house?" Su Qiuyue stared at her sister with wide eyes. Build a house for a dog?
"Yes, isn't Dahuang a member of our family? We have to build a house for it." Su Xinyue said seriously.
Because my sister said that after the New Year, Dahuang will be too big to sleep in the house.
Xinyue thought, if she didn’t sleep inside, it would be so cold sleeping outside.
She hadn't seen how other people raised dogs, but Sister Xu Hua said that dogs would find a place by themselves and could even spend the winter in a pile of firewood.
Xinyue couldn't bear to do that, so she wanted to build a house for Dahuang.
"What kind of house are you planning to build?" Su Qiuyue asked.
"Ah? I haven't thought about it yet." Xinyue frowned.
"If you want to build a house for it, you have to do it yourself. If you plan to build it, you have to figure it out yourself." Su Qiuyue spread her hands.
"Oh." Su Xinyue hesitated when she heard that she had to do it herself. She immediately squatted on the ground and began to think about what kind of house she could build for Dahuang.
In the afternoon, Su Qiuyue saw Xinyue and Xu Hua, followed by Xu Ling and Xu Kuan who were able to walk out.
Four people were gesticulating here and there in the yard.
The day before the appointment, Su Qiuyue arrived in town and went to the hospital to buy a lot of plasters.
It is a kind of extremely dense and strong cloth that has been cut.
Su Qiuyue bought a lot.
Then she dressed up and secretly went to the small courtyard.
Only then did she remember that she had no sacks to carry the food.
Now that it’s here, there’s really nothing we can do but pile it up in an empty room.
Then I went to the hospital dormitory.
It was about ten o'clock the next morning when she went to the pharmacy to find Zhao Hongyan.
"Are you all here?" Zhao Hongyan asked for leave from his unit and went to the courtyard with Su Qiuyue.
"I'm here, but there's a small problem." Su Qiuyue didn't know what to say.
Kind of embarrassing.
"What? What's the matter?" Zhao Hongyan was a little excited, hoping something went wrong.
"It's just that we don't have bags, so everything they sent was... just scattered there." Su Qiuyue was a little embarrassed.
It’s really hard to explain.
"Oh my god, I got scared. It's okay! Whoever wants it has to carry the bag himself. I thought something was wrong." Zhao Hongyan patted his chest in fear.
"Oh, oh, oh, that's good, that's good." Su Qiuyue finally reacted. It was normal not to have a bag at this moment.
"Oh my god!" Zhao Hongyan tried his best to suppress the sound of surprise.
She was not surprised to see the food on the ground, but was surprised by another pile of emerald green and pink colors.
Even though the spinach was wilted and the tomatoes were frozen hard.
"Oh my god, look at me! Why do you miss me so much?!
How do they save money? " Zhao Hongyan sighed.
Fortunately, she was just sighing and had no intention of exploring other people's storage methods.
This also made Su Qiuyue feel relieved.
In fact, when she decided to sell the vegetables, she was taking a risk because she had not come up with an excuse from before the Chinese New Year until now.
She thought that if it didn't work, she would just sell it this time and say that it was stored by someone else and she didn't know about it.
Fortunately, information is not well developed nowadays, so this information is not known to everyone.
She was relieved after seeing Zhao Hongyan's reaction. At this time, no matter what it was, even to screw in a screw, one had to become a disciple. He would definitely not tell others about his family's things.
"Hey, Qiuyue, let me tell you. Last time you gave me those tomatoes, my aunt made soup for my cousin, and that boy ate two steamed buns in one go.
It's for my uncle and aunt. Don't mention it.
My aunt also said that if there are more tomatoes, I must leave a few for her." Zhao Hongyan said with emotion while touching the tomatoes.
"Then just give two to your aunt." Su Qiuyue said.
"Oh my god, do you know how much this is?!" When Zhao Hongyan heard her say this, he felt that she was a spendthrift.
Three tomatoes were sold for one dollar each.
It’s several dollars, and you just give it to me like that?
"It's okay. Two tomatoes, to add a dish to my brother.
Besides, what if you have to beg your uncle in the future?" Su Qiuyue said.
"Ah? What did you say?" Zhao Hongyan didn't react.
"I got to know this family by accident. If they can still sell it this winter, why don't we let them stock up more?" Su Qiuyue said.
"Oh my god, what's wrong with your brain? How come it works so well?
It’s not bad, it will still be a source of income in the winter.
This thing could sell for more money during the Chinese New Year.
This is not just adding a dish, it's a gift." Zhao Hongyan's eyes lit up.
"Hey, can you still sell the grain?" Zhao Hongyan asked quickly.
"Sister! These grains were collected from many people, and some were given out because they wanted money to do something.
This depends on luck, there is no way it will always be there, how much food is there. "Su Qiuyue said quickly.
It was rash to take out the food this time. In fact, there were many loopholes that could not be investigated in detail. She had already agreed, so she took it out anyway. She must not dare to take risks again in the future.
She had to continue growing the crops, but she still had to think about what to do with them.
"That's right." Zhao Hongyan felt a little sorry that he couldn't sell grain next time.
We need food every day, it would be great if we always had it.
"Why don't you wait here for a while? I'll go to my uncle's place to get a scale." After looking at the things, Zhao Hongyan hurried to weigh them.
"Sister Hongyan, I won't wait here. I have a rough idea of the items, and I trust you. Just let me know when you've weighed them.
I'm in charge of the dishes. Give our aunt 10 tomatoes as a thank you gift for my trouble to our uncle.
I'll go back first, and we'll calculate the money when I come to the hospital next month." Su Qiuyue said.
"Oh my god, you are so generous." Zhao Hongyan was surprised at her trust in him and felt that he was valued.
These are all money.
Su Qiuyue didn't really trust him, and she was also afraid of meeting the wrong person.
But fortunately, people nowadays only have bad intentions and they just want to take advantage of others, they are not that bad.
Besides, she knew where Zhao Hongyan worked, so it was not easy for her to run away.
Moreover, sufficient trust will also strengthen the emotional bond between Zhao Hongyan and her.
Of course, that was what she saw from some marketing accounts in her previous life. As a housewife, she had no such experience at all. She just took advantage of the space she had and followed suit.
The two talked for a while, and Su Qiuyue went back first.
For the rest of the time, Su Qiuyue started to deliver babies every few days, and then studied at home.
The 17th Brigade also started to get busy.
In addition to the seeds they kept, seeds from the commune also arrived. The team leader solemnly covered the team's ox cart with soft firewood to pull the seeds.
Seeds are very precious.
I went to the commune early in the morning with the team leaders.
Then they brought back a cart of seeds in brown paper bags.
These seeds were solemnly placed in the warehouse of the brigade headquarters, separated from the seeds they left behind.
Su Qiuyue even went to take a look and saw that there were people watching, so it was impossible for her to sneak in.
But she listened very carefully to the team leader and others discussing the seed germination rate.
As for corn, the germination rate of the seeds they kept for themselves was 50 to 60 percent, while the germination rate of the seeds from the commune could reach 70 to 80 percent.
Soybeans, millet, and sorghum are all similar.
Su Qiuyu returned home and thought for a long time but couldn't figure out how to get the seeds.
"Qiu Yue?!"
Su Qiuyue was writing calligraphy at home with her cousin when she heard someone calling her.
From the sound, he has entered the yard.
There was only a wall between her house and her uncle's house, so there were no brambles planted on it.
In order to make it convenient for the two families to move back and forth, Xu Hua and his sister often climbed the wall.
The door of her house is always locked all year round, and when outsiders come, they are called out from outside the door.
Only family members can enter the yard.
The person who came in was my second cousin Xu Jing, holding a few small paper bags in her hands.
Seeing that they were all sitting on the kang and writing, he said:
"It's too crowded to sit on the kang. Let my dad make a floor table, a slightly bigger one."
The calligraphy takes up too much space, so they couldn't write together. They had to take turns writing.
In the past, only Xinyue and Xu Hui wrote it, and later my little cousin also followed suit and wrote in pencil.
Although Xu Hua didn't like it, he was still forced to write by his elder sister.
My eldest cousin has now started copying some calligraphy books that Su Qiuyue brought.
What surprised Su Qiuyue was that not only did her cousin copy the calligraphy very similarly, but he also copied the paintings very well.
It was because my little cousin was listening to the radio that day, and the radio described how magnificent a building was. The child couldn’t imagine it, so he kept repeating the above words.
Xinyue tried to coax him by looking for pictures in the picture book. She didn't know what happened to her little cousin that day, he just kept making a fuss. Everything was wrong and not what he had imagined.
The situation got so chaotic that several people were at a loss as to what to do.
My cousin had no choice but to draw one for him.
Then he drew a picture based on the picture books, the patterns in other books, and his knowledge of the buildings.
My little cousin happily held it like a treasure.
My cousin also felt very proud, but he was not particularly happy. He always seemed like something was wrong.
Su Qiuyue asked her cousin, and he sighed and said:
"What do you think the emperor's palace looks like? What did the ancient pavilions look like?"
Only then did Su Qiuyue realize that her cousin was beginning to delve into research.
There are some books in the space that I got from the scrap collection station before, but there are really no books about architecture.
But some of them contain books on flowers, birds, fish, insects, calligraphy and painting.
There are also some Buddha statues and figures. My cousin looks at them every day. Sometimes when he copies one, several children are surprised and exclaim loudly at how similar it is.
Su Qiuyue was thinking of going to town next month to help her cousin find some books.
"Then we'll have to trouble my cousin." Su Qiuyue said to her second cousin.
"That's no trouble." said my second cousin politely.
"My mother asked me to give these to you. They are vegetable seeds and other things."
Handing the paper bag in her hand to Su Qiuyue, the second cousin also kindly told her what seeds were in each bag.
"This is a gourd. There are two types. One has one belly, which we use to make a ladle. The other has two bellies. It can be eaten when it is tender, but is usually used to hold things when it is old." said my second cousin.
Su Qiuyue nodded. The gourd seeds could be planted in the space, and then they would see what kind of gourds would grow.
When spring comes, I feel a little irritated after staying on the kang for the whole winter.
Some people have dry nose and mouth, tight throat, others have nosebleeds and yellow urine.
In serious cases, you will get sick, cough, and have a runny nose.
At this time, some people will cupping themselves. You can often see purple and red circles on someone’s forehead, which are the marks of cupping.
Some people's Adam's apples and backs of their necks were pinched purple and black.
Everyone who saw it said, "Why is it so popular?"
Xinyue woke up one morning with a nose bleeding.
I have recovered from my illness this winter and am in a good mood. I have grown taller and heavier, and I eat well. I was a little irritable in the spring.
Experienced people would take out the dandelions that were dried in the autumn and make tea with them.
But dandelions are too bitter and children don’t like to drink them.
Su Qiuyue made a big bowl of burnt rice.
Just wash the rice, soak it for two hours, and then drain the water.
Put it in a pan and fry over low heat until it turns golden brown.
Mix it with rice in a 1:1 ratio and cook it into porridge. It not only reduces internal heat but also nourishes the spleen and stomach.
But now there is no such luxurious way of eating, and she bought her rice before going to the countryside.
You can only use scorched rice as tea, boil it in water and drink it when it is warm.
I also sent half of it to my cousin's house in the backyard. He has many children and my aunt hasn't fully recovered yet, so it would be good for their health for them all to drink some.
Before, my second cousin was busy at home and didn’t come to her house often. Since she came to deliver the seeds, my second cousin would come over from time to time, sometimes to talk to her, and sometimes to help her.
Su Qiuyue didn't feel anything at first, but as it happened more often, Su Qiuyue always felt that something was wrong in their words.
But she couldn't tell exactly where.
Just then Hu Zi came to see her and asked her to get ready to go out.
Her second cousin came to help her take care of her younger sister, and she agreed without thinking too much.
The place they were going this time was a bit far away, and the woman was giving birth to her first child, so Aunt Li explained the general situation to her on the way.
“The family’s surname is Sun, and there are eight children in the family. As there were too many children, the family was separated early.
The one who gave birth to the child was the fifth son's wife, who was capable and had an impetuous personality.
She is so thin that she looks like she is five months pregnant even though she is about to give birth.
I guess it won’t be very easy to have children.”
Su Qiuyue was a little nervous when she heard this. Aunt Li looked at her and quickly comforted her, saying:
"Don't be nervous, this is normal. No matter if it goes smoothly or not, we who deliver babies cannot take it lightly. This can be fatal."
This sentence also made Su Qiuyue's heart skip a beat. Everything had been going too smoothly before, so smoothly that she became a little lax.
I don't think it's a big deal, and I've been a bit relaxed in my studies recently.
After Aunt Li said this, she realized that no matter how smooth the process was before, it was a life-threatening situation for the mother, and as a doctor, it must not be taken lightly.
Only by being vigilant and paying attention at all times can we provide the best protection for mothers and newborns.
