Reborn as a farmer's favorite, Koi sweet wife super lucky husband
Chapter 30 Deposit
Ultimately, I still have to rely on Ran He's guidance, which is not only time-consuming and laborious, but also makes me feel unwilling.
Then, the thought quietly faded away and disappeared with the wind.
After a full meal and tea, the air was filled with satisfaction and joy. People stood up one after another to say goodbye, bringing with them the warmth of the afternoon sun.
Ran He stood on the doorstep, watching the backs of each neighbor.
Her smile was warm and sincere, like a newly blooming flower, adding a touch of color to this ordinary day.
"Today, I am really grateful to the aunts. I will remember your kindness."
The words are full of gratitude, and every word is the best interpretation of the deep love between neighbors.
"Ran girl, you are too polite,"
An auntie responded with a smile, her voice full of kindness, "Not only did you send us pumpkins to satisfy our cravings, but you also invited us to taste this rare game. We feel bad about that. If your family needs anything, I'll send you some tomorrow. Don't hesitate!"
These words are like a ray of sunshine in winter, warm but not hot, and go straight to the heart.
The move came at a time when the rift within the Wu family had reached its peak.
When dividing the property, Ran He did not bother too much with trivial matters such as pots and pans, but simply asked for some food to sustain his livelihood.
Those seemingly insignificant little items are actually necessities of life, and when you add them up bit by bit, they amount to a considerable expense.
Ran He is not short of money, but the self-reliance in her nature makes her unwilling to easily accept charity from others.
Besides, although pots, pans, and utensils are small, they are also an expense.
For the villagers who are not well-off, every item is an accumulation of life. Giving it to her may mean inconvenience to their own family.
"Thank you, aunties. However, I plan to go to town tomorrow and buy some daily necessities for myself. I won't bother you any more."
There was a hint of refusal in her words, but more importantly, she showed consideration for other people's feelings.
After all, behind every kindness of the villagers is the crystallization of their hard work and sweat.
As the crowd dispersed, Zhu Cuihua still stood by the door, her figure casting a long shadow in the setting sun.
"Okay, you and your children must be exhausted today, so take a rest early. If you need any help, let the children come over and call me. I will definitely help you if I can."
This promise was heavy, full of trust and kindness, like a spring breeze, quietly nourishing Ran He's heart.
"Okay, by the way, I have something to ask, is there a carpenter in our village?"
Ran He's voice sounded softly, with a hint of anticipation.
Zhu Cuihua was stunned when she heard this, and then a hint of surprise flashed in her eyes, "Yes, why do you want to find a carpenter?"
There was curiosity and concern in his words.
"As you can see, this house is so empty. It's hard to find a decent dinner table today, so I plan to find a carpenter to make a set of tables and chairs to make this new home more lively."
Ran He's tone was full of longing for the future, and every word was leaping with sparks of hope.
Zhu Cuihua was startled at first, but then she suddenly realized something, followed by a relaxed smile, "Oh, I thought it was no big deal. It just so happens that my man is a carpenter in the village. He has superb craftsmanship and everyone in the village praises him. If you trust him, he will help you build a set of tables and chairs."
Upon learning that Zhu Cuihua's husband was actually a master carpenter in the village, Ran He couldn't help but feel surprised.
This sudden coincidence seemed like a clever arrangement of fate, and it invisibly built a warm bridge between the two families.
"That's great. I'll trouble your family. This is the deposit."
She took out a string of copper coins from her sleeve with light and solemn movements. Each copper coin carried her yearning for a better life and gratitude to her neighbors.
Ran He is well aware of the rules of this industry, which are like the unwritten understanding between craftsmen and customers.
A small deposit is always required before taking on a new job.
This custom not only ensures the rights and interests of both parties, but is more like a silent contract.
In case something changes midway, the tables and chairs that have been crafted with ingenuity and sweat will not be left with nowhere to put, which would become a regret in the hearts of the craftsmen.
For customers, this deposit also becomes a guarantee of peace of mind. The tables and chairs have not been completed yet, but the money has been prepaid, so they will naturally not give up easily.
"Oh, I'm so sorry to ask you to pay the deposit. I know your current situation is not easy. It's not too late to pay for the tables and chairs when you have more money."
Zhu Cuihua waved her hands repeatedly with a generous attitude.
In her eyes, she was not willing to trust everyone, but for Ran He, just based on today's generous words and behavior, it was enough to prove Ran He's openness and straightforwardness.
How can we care about such a small account when it comes to the friendship between neighbors? We see each other every day, so who can really take such a small matter to heart?
"As for the deposit, I have to pay it. Please don't refuse. I am not so poor that I can't even come up with this little amount."
A gleam of light flashed in Zhu Cuihua's eyes, and she thought to herself that the Wu family has always been headed by Wu's mother. Ran He's words undoubtedly revealed that he had some savings privately.
If Wu's mother knew about this, there would probably be another storm in the family.
Looking back on Ran He's action of giving up money and choosing food when the family was divided, it seems even more intriguing now.
"Well, I won't be polite with you anymore. You should pack up early and have a good rest. I will ask my man to speed up the work and send it to you as soon as it is finished."
Watching Zhu Cuihua walking away, Ran He turned around and devoted himself to the trivial housework.
She washed the dishes carefully and arranged them neatly on the wooden shelf in the kitchen.
Then he boiled a pot of boiling water and carefully wiped the children's faces.
Then I washed their little feet covered with mud one by one, and finally coaxed them into the not-so-warm bed.
Looking at the children squeezed on the slightly narrow bed with thin bedding.
Ran He secretly decided in his heart that he must go to town tomorrow to buy them a few soft new quilts.
"Goodnight, babies."
Dabao, Erbao and Sanbao snuggled tightly in Ran He's arms. Since their mother's temperament changed, the experiences of the past two days seemed as beautiful as a dream.
They finally got rid of the oppressive haze of the Wu family and had their own little world.
Although the living environment is still simple, mother's love is as warm as the sunshine.
Let this small room be filled with sweetness and warmth, and even if we are crowded together, we will feel happy.
Those who walk through the streets carrying rabbit meat can't help but show off.
After all, in this era of material scarcity, it is rare to be able to enjoy delicious meat.
When passing by the Wu family’s gate, many people unconsciously slowed down their pace.
I thought to myself, wanting to see how Wu's mother would look when she found out about this.
As for Wu's mother, she really lived up to everyone's expectations.
Just as she was cleaning the yard with her head down, the tempting aroma of rabbit meat inadvertently slipped into her nostrils, instantly arousing the gluttony in her stomach.
