Chapter 14 Finding a Carpenter to Make a Bed
Grandma Li couldn't bear the death of her eldest son and daughter-in-law, and she was ill for a long time.A few days after Grandpa Li went to the ground, she got up and wanted to see her grandson and great-grandson, but she saw Xiao Chengtu cutting pigweed by himself.
"dad."
"Hey." Grandma Li responded, and said again, "Patriotic, where have you been? Don't run around, you think Chengtu will cut pigweed, you might as well be Chengtu. Your father Mom is gone, you have to stand up for this family, you have to go to work tomorrow, otherwise you won’t have anything to eat in the future.”
Looking at Grandma Li's worried and unhappy face.This reminded Gu Xi of his grandma, when he was kicked out of Gu's house by his father, grandma hugged him and refused to let go, she insisted on tidying up and walking with him.When he was whipped by his father with a wooden ruler, grandma lay on his back and refused to walk away.
In fact, my father didn't really drive him away, otherwise, with the power of the Lu family, he would have been blocked long ago. What my father wanted was an explanation, an explanation for the marriage partner.
Thinking of this, Gu Xi hurriedly explained: "Grandma, I didn't go to play, I talked to the village head about Chengtu's study."
Hearing this, Grandma Li's attention was diverted: "Are you going to send Chengtu to school? The school is so far away, how can Chengtu's child walk such a long distance? Also, is there any tuition for Chengtu? If not, grandma has some money here."
Grandma Li is an honest person, so the old Li family is still headed by Grandpa Li, and even the money is hidden by Grandpa Li. Otherwise, with Grandma Li's personality, there is no way to hide the money.
"I don't need milk, I have money." Gu Xi hurriedly said, "Chengtu is young, and I don't feel at ease going to another village to go to school, so I proposed to the village chief to ask him to reopen the closed primary school, and then I would like to be a primary school teacher."
"Ah, it's a good idea to be patriotic." Grandma Li immediately said, "You are good at reading, you can teach well, and you are in our own village."
"That's it, so don't worry, grandma." Looking at Grandma Li's pale face, Gu Xi knew that he fell ill because the original owner's dead white-haired man sent a black-haired man to him, "Grandma, you go back to rest, pig cage Chengtu and I will cut the grass, you don't need it."
"I won't go." Grandma Li said, "Your father also told me to rest. I don't know when I will die if I continue to rest. Even if I die, I have to see you before I die."
"Grandma, you want to live a long life and enjoy the blessings. How can you die?" As he spoke, Gu Xi said to Xiao Chengtu again, "Chengtu, you go to boil water and make milk powder for your grandma to drink, pigweed Dad will cut it."
"Milk powder? Is it milk malt extract?" Xiao Chengtu had never seen milk powder before.
"It's milk powder. Dad puts it in the kitchen cabinet, and another white can with milk malt extract." Gu Xi said.
"Oh, I see." He saw it when he drank milk malt extract in the morning.
"Steam the meat buns from the morning again, and give them to your grandma and grandpa later." Gu Xi said again, there are still four meat buns, if you don't eat them, they will be ruined.
"Hey."
When it comes to boiling hot water, here comes the problem again.Li's family doesn't have a thermos, so they have to burn it every time they need hot water, which is a bit troublesome, so they have to buy a thermos.
Buy hot water bottles, buy cotton cloth to make clothes and underwear, buy bicycles, go to night school, buy mats... It is best to make a new bed, even though he and the original owner are now alone, but in his heart, Gu Xi still doesn't like to sleep with the original owner The bed was old, and the original owner didn't like to clean it, so there was a lot of dust on the bed.
Thinking of this, Gu Xi felt uncomfortable all over.
Moreover, the bed can be made by a carpenter, but what about his underwear?Should he do it himself?He can't even tailor.There are only three people who can make his underwear for him without incurring hooliganism.His sister Li Ximei, his grandmother, and his future wife.As a homosexual, even in the 57s, he would not marry a wife and have children.So only his sister Li Ximei is with him, but Li Ximei is already married, so his grandmother is more suitable.
So Gu Xi asked: "Grandma, can you make clothes?" The old lady is 63 this year, she is a bit old, and she doesn't know if her eyesight is good, so Gu Xi really couldn't bear to bother him.
"Of course I will." Grandma Li said, "Your father and your uncle grew up, and their clothes were made of milk until they got married. After you were born, from Aizhong, Aihua to you, milk was given to you Made clothes. When grandma was young, she had a pair of skillful hands."
"Then can you still make clothes now?" Gu Xi asked.
"It depends on the clothes." Grandma Li said, "Sewing and mending, simple ones are okay. Clothes and pants need to be measured, and milk is hard to make, and one piece will take a long time."
"Then... what about the underpants? Are the underpants fast?" Having said this, Gu Xi's face turned red.He had never been so embarrassed.
Grandma Li looked at him and smiled, Zhang Ercui left, this baby is not married yet, besides her grandma, who will make his underpants? "Okay, I'll make milk for you."
"I have the fabric and draw the pattern myself, and I'll bring it to you tomorrow." Gu Xi immediately said, "Grandma, help me make a few more, so I don't have to bother you all the time."
"I'm your grandma, so why bother?" Grandma Li rolled her eyes at him, "Patriotic, if you are always so obedient in the future, grandma can rest assured."
Gu Xi smiled, he will always be so "good" in the future.
When Grandma Li went back, she was holding four steamed buns. She was reluctant to eat them and wanted to take them back for Grandpa Li to eat.In fact, Gu Xi also wanted to give her the can of milk powder, but the old man didn't want it anyway.
At about 01:30, Li Goudan and Li Maodan came to find Xiao Cheng and went up the mountain. Gu Xi was free and went to the carpenter's house.
Carpenter Li in the village has a great reputation. In Lijia Village, including the nearby villages, if a couple gets married, they always ask Carpenter Li to make new beds, tables, and cabinets.
Families with a little bit of conditions will prepare new beds, new cabinets, and new tables when they get married, and they will all be placed in the new house.
When Gu Xi went, there was someone at Carpenter Li's house.
"Uncle Carpenter." Gu Xi called out.
"Patriotic? Why are you here?" To be honest, no matter which house Gu Xi appeared in, everyone would find it strange.After all, the original owner is a well-known lazy and idle person in Lijia Village.
"My bed at home is broken, I want to ask you to help me." Gu Xi said.
These days, speculative and private businesses are not allowed, so Carpenter Li is also very particular about taking jobs.Also, he doesn't take money, but he takes thanks.
He made a bed for others, and they thanked him and brought some food to the door, which must be all right.
"Okay." Carpenter Li said to the people around him, "I'll talk to my nephew in the village first, and you can take the test too." Carpenter Li's family is from other villages, and the son of the family is getting married. Carpenter Li is asked to make a bed Yes, but the conditions cannot be negotiated.
Carpenter Li asked Gu Xi: "You kid won't come to play tricks on uncle?"
"No, no, am I this kind of person? If I dare to play tricks on my uncle, I won't be able to make it through when there is a happy event at home?" Gu Xi said immediately.
"Well, that sounds plausible. Then what kind of bed do you want to make? Provide the wood yourself or I will prepare it for you?" Carpenter Li asked.
If you provide the wood yourself, you have to go up the mountain to cut it yourself. If Carpenter Li provides the wood, Carpenter Li will cut it yourself, but the price is different.
There is nothing privately owned these days, except that the pheasants and hares on the mountain are all owned by the state and called everyone's property.Even the trees on the mountain belong to Lijia Village.
Of course, the villagers would not say that they cut down a few trees to make beds. After all, there is no time for them to have weddings, but things have to be handled beautifully.If Carpenter Li prepares the wood, he will go to the village head and the village party secretary to say hello.If Gu Xi prepares by himself, Gu Xi has to go and say hello by himself.
"You help me prepare. I'm a layman, and I don't know what a good tree is." Gu Xi said.
"Okay, let's talk about what kind of bed you want." Carpenter Li asked.
"Uncle, can I draw it? I can't tell." Gu Xi asked.
"Okay, let's draw on the ground." Li Carpenter has been a carpenter for decades, and he knows the drawings by heart.
Gu Xi picked up a branch and began to draw on the muddy ground in the yard: "The length of the bed is 2 meters, the width is 1 meters, and the height is half a meter. Then the wooden boards should be denser, and the four corners should be flat, so there is no need to make it taller." bedposts, and make me a bed back.”
After listening to Gu Xi's introduction, Carpenter Li's eyes lit up first: "The way you make the back of the bed is novel, I've never heard of it, so I didn't ask about it. But if the bedposts at the four corners are not made high, you can't drop the mosquito net. Mosquitoes what to do?"
When Gu Xi heard it, it was true. "The height of the four corner bedposts is just as long as you see the height that suits you."
"no problem."
"Then there is the second bed. I will make the second bed two layers. It is the same as my bed. It is enough to make a width of 1 meter 2, and then make two upper and lower layers, and then do it at the end of the bed. A ladder like this is convenient for going up and down. Then there is a guardrail on the second floor..."
Carpenter Li's eyes lit up again: "Patriotic, your idea of bunk beds is really good. If there are many children in the family, one bed can handle it. Patriotic, where did your idea come from?"
Gu Xidao: "When I was on the train, I saw the train beds with upper and lower berths, so I thought of it."
"Fantastic, wonderful, any more?"
"There are also two desks...two computer stools...the computer stool refers to..."
"Patriotic, you want the idea of the back of the bed and bunk beds. Uncle will charge you two catties of eggs for these things. What do you think?" Originally Carpenter Li wanted two catties of pork, but he wanted I thought it was hard to ask for meat tickets, and besides, he was happy after hearing Gu Xi's idea today, so he only charged two catties of eggs.If it were someone else, even two catties of pork would not be enough.
"How embarrassing..." Gu Xi said, "Uncle, you can use the idea, I'm giving you two catties of pork to strengthen your body, can you hurry up and help me make a bed for me to sleep in first?"
Carpenter Li thought for a while: "Five days, uncle will make your bed first."
"dad."
"Hey." Grandma Li responded, and said again, "Patriotic, where have you been? Don't run around, you think Chengtu will cut pigweed, you might as well be Chengtu. Your father Mom is gone, you have to stand up for this family, you have to go to work tomorrow, otherwise you won’t have anything to eat in the future.”
