Don't owe your face to farming
Chapter 30
door.
"You go to heat the hot water, and then call someone to help." Wen Po is a woman in her fifties, and she has delivered many children in these ten miles and eight villages, and she is very experienced.
As soon as she knew that Yang Qiong was pregnant, Second Aunt Yang made preparations. She specially tore out some festive cotton fabrics, bought the latest cotton, and made small cotton jackets, cotton trousers, and soft bedding.I also agreed to take care of Yang Qiong, and dared not sleep every night, just sleeping lightly with clothes on.So, as soon as Han Qingshi went to knock on the door, Second Aunt Yang got up and ran out.
Yang Qiong only felt that half of his life was gone, and the pain below was like a knife placed in the stomach and kept stirring, and all internal organs were displaced.
Fortunately, there is the baby's bath water that has been prepared a long time ago. Take a sip to restore your vitality and continue.
Not long after Second Aunt Yang came, she heard Granny Wen's voice saying "Come on". After a while, a small red baby was born with a resounding voice.
"This child is a bit small, and there is probably another child in his stomach." Wen Po was very experienced, so she went to Yang Qiong to check again, and sure enough, there was another child.
The second one was finally born, smaller in size and crying like a cat, which sounds pitiful.Yang Qiong's whole body seemed to be fished out of the water, and finally heaved a sigh of relief and passed out.
The little brother has no milk, and the baby usually drinks goat's milk or cow's milk after birth. Han Qingshi has already prepared these.In the yard next door, there are two lambs that have just calved, and a cow.
Han Qingshi gave Granny Wen a reward, and Granny Wen said auspicious words and helped clean up before leaving.
For a whole night, the second baby was born at Mao time, and the eldest baby was half an hour earlier.
"The older one is the little man, and the younger one is the little brother. Oh, what a blessing." Second Aunt Yang couldn't help but smile from ear to ear. The two children were wrapped in quilts, and each of them hugged Han Qingshi.
Yang Qiong woke up, drank a bowl of baby's bath water, and looked at the two red monkey-like children lying beside her, and couldn't help wrinkling her face, "It's so ugly."
"I've just been born, and I'll be fat for nothing in two days." Second Aunt Yang sat on the edge of the kang and said with a smile.
Yang Qiong couldn't help turning her head to see if it was the flesh that fell from her body, but her body was too weak and tired, so she soon fell asleep again.
It was evening when Yang Qiong woke up again, and when Yang Qiong looked up, he saw Han Qingshi carefully holding the baby and feeding him water.On the first day of birth, the baby should drink some water first, and then drink milk.
"I made porridge, wait a minute." Han Qingshi put the baby on the kang, and Yang Qiong knew it was the eldest baby at a glance, and the eldest baby was older than the second baby.
The porridge is carefully boiled, with a lot of medicinal materials added to it, stewed in a casserole, soft and fragrant.After drinking two small bowls in one breath, Yang Qiong felt a little strength in his body, sat up carefully, and poked Dawa's face with his hand.
Because the baby was too small, Alaska did not allow it to approach, so he had to jump on the bench and look up at the dog.
[Aww, little monkey. 】
"Pfft, it really looks like a little monkey." Yang Qiong also laughed, "The eldest baby and the second baby need to grow up quickly, so that they can play with Jia Jia."
The child's delivery went well, and Yang Qiong was happy, and gave generous red envelopes to the men and boys who helped in the shed, as well as the men who helped feed the ducks and pigs at home.
Within a few days, everyone in the village basically knew that Yang Qiong had given birth to twins, both big and small.Han Qingshi's life is really getting better and better. The fool who only knew how to work hard and go home to serve his husband can no longer be seen.Now Han Qingshi's family has a green brick and tile house, and a shed that everyone knows is valuable. With two more children, life is better than that of a fairy.
"Give the second baby more food." Since the eldest baby and the second baby are much smaller than the average baby, Yang Qiong's body was not seriously injured, and he recovered almost in a few days, and he can get out of bed and walk around a little.But seeing the big baby who can eat very much, he can eat as much milk every time he is fed, and the second baby is like a kitten, who will stop eating after a few mouthfuls. Yang Qiong hurriedly told Han Qingshi, "Hey again, second baby too small."
【Aww, the little monkey has become a baby. 】
Alaska stood in the distance and looked at the kang, but he was still not allowed to approach, but he was still very interested, wishing he could squat on the stool and look at the little master every day.
The eldest child started to sleep soundly after feeding, like a little pig. The second child closed his mouth and refused to nurse or sleep. It was quite difficult to take care of.
☆, 76|75.74.73.72.6.20
In just a few days, the eldest baby and the second baby seemed to have been reborn. The original appearance of the little red monkey disappeared, replaced by a white and fat baby with a poked face that looks like water can flow out.
Fearing that the cold wind coming in and out of the door would blow on the kang, Han Qingshi specially wrapped a thick cloth around the kang, like a curtain, which could be opened and closed. Yang Qiong had been on the kang for the past few days and never came down. .
At the beginning, the eldest baby and the second baby fed more frequently, Han Qingshi and Yang Qiong didn't know much about it, and the second aunt Yang didn't go home. She slept on a temporary bed next to the side room at night, and could get up to take care of the two babies at any time.
In the past few days, Yang Qiong is fine, as long as he eats and drinks well and takes care of himself, Han Qingshi has almost formed a conditioned reflex, as long as the eldest or second baby cries, he will get up immediately and light the lamp.At first, I just watched Second Aunt Yang busy with her work, but gradually I was able to help, and after a few days, I finally fully mastered it.
"Second Aunt Yang hasn't had a good rest these days, thank you. Qingshi can take care of her, so you can go home and rest for a few days." Yang Qiong said with a smile while lying on the kang.The older baby is better, she sleeps when she is full, she only grunts when she urinates, changes her diaper and then pats it, then falls asleep again, and the second baby has to struggle a little bit, she can’t be hugged, she can’t be put on the kang, It still has to shake back and forth, and it takes a long time to make a fuss in the middle of the night.
Second Aunt Yang was getting old, and after a few days of tossing, although her spirit was still good, her body couldn't bear it. Yang Qiong said this for her sake.Second Aunt Yang didn't know it herself, and seeing Han Qingshi holding her second baby in her arms and breastfeeding her in a decent manner, she felt relieved, and gave some instructions before getting up and leaving.
"Gaga, come and see the eldest baby and the second baby." Seeing Alaska nestled in the corner all day, occasionally raising the dog's head to look here, and not daring to approach because he didn't get permission, the whole dog became depressed .Neither he nor Han Qingshi are allergic to dogs, and the eldest and second children should be too, so Yang Qiong simply called Alaska over.
[Aww, little master. 】
Alaska jumped over from the kennel, with his front paws resting on the edge of the bed, waiting for his round eyes to look at the two sleeping babies.
"You can't lick them yet, and you can't get too close. You can wait until the eldest baby and the second baby grow up." Yang Qiong poked the white and soft cheeks of the eldest baby, and poked a small dimple, which was very tender.
"Wow...wow..." Erwa suddenly opened her small mouth, and burst into a loud cry.
With a swipe, he jumped aside, and Alaska raised his dog's head to look at the second baby who burst into tears on the kang. 【Crying...crying...】
"Probably peed." Yang Qiong hurriedly picked up the second baby, touched the little butt, and sure enough the diaper was wet, "Qingshi, take the diaper."
The weather is cold and the sun is not too harsh. After washing the diapers, they hang them next to the stove to bake. The eldest baby and the second baby use them together, and they have to wash a lot of diapers every day.Fortunately, Han Qingshi washes it every day, and he is... used to it...
He came over with a diaper, took the second baby, untied the quilt neatly, changed the diaper, Han Qingshi took the dirty diaper to the side and continued to wash.After a while, the big baby started to fuss again, and it looked like he was peeing, so he continued to change diapers and wash...
The days went by like this day by day, and they passed by so fast.
Yang Qiong's status is extraordinary now, her family has a big tile-roofed house, there are dozens of ducks, several piglets, and a shed that has earned a lot of money. Naturally, the full moon wine for the eldest baby and the second baby is going to be big. .
The good people in the village were asked to check the date, and Yang Qiong began to prepare after it was finalized.The guys who helped Yang Qiong added a few more recently, and earned more money than going to the town to do hard work. Naturally, everyone didn't say that Yang Qiong was wrong, and they all praised Yang Qiong openly and secretly.There are more men in the village who have made money, and it is more face-saving to talk about it. Some men who have not yet spoken of their relationship have become sweet pastries, and younger brothers from other villages are willing to marry here.
The little buddies who worked for Yang Qiong had broadened their horizons a lot, but they were not in a hurry to marry. Some of them also secretly looked at the men in the village and did not plan to marry to other villages.
"Please invite the helpers to have a meal. The old people in the village, Uncle Yang's family, and Lizheng's family, that's about it." Yang Qiong sat on the kang and thought, "I absolutely don't welcome Yang Datie and Ji's family. , but Ji Xiaolian and Yang Liuer can come, these two little brothers have changed a lot."
As far as Ji Xiaolian is concerned, the changes are really not small. Ever since she got engaged to Wu Manbao and worked with Wu Xiaoyue, she has a lot of liveliness, and she doesn't pay attention to Shi Jinhua when she returns home. There are many.Fortunately, Ji Yuanqiu's temperament has changed recently, and he also helped Ji Dashan work in the field at home, but he had never been in the field, and he was very uncomfortable, and he started to burn in a few days.
"Brother Changshou plans to take a few children from the next village to try out after a while, and I need someone to help." Yang Qiong continued to poke the big baby's soft cheek, "Although Yang Nian is literate, his knowledge is not as good as that of Xiao Ju, but that Ji Yuanqiu It's a good fit."
"Yang Zi, don't worry about it. The full moon wine is not done yet." Han Qingshi went to the shed, and Li Xiaoju was finally free, so she hurried to Yang Qiong's side to help.Some fine work is still done by the little brother, after a while, Yang Liuer and Ji Xiaolian came to work together.
Although the younger brother's physique is better than that of the female, he needs to be taken care of carefully after giving birth. Yang Qiong dare not be sloppy, and basically does not leave the house. Li Xiaoju led Yang Liuer and Ji Xiaolian to work on the full moon wine.
Although the eldest baby and the second baby were relatively small when they were born, but because the milk kept up with them, they grew up white and fat, and looked extremely cute.Yang Qiong carried the eldest child around for a walk when she had nothing to do. As for the second child, she was too noisy and left it to Han Qingshi to make trouble.
On the day of the full moon wine, it was a rare sunny day, the sun was very good, and there was no wind in the yard for a day. Two tables were set up in the side room, Yang Ershu's family and Li Zheng's family, and the others directly set up tables in the yard.
Now Yang Changshou is no different from ordinary people except for his thin body. His voice is elegant, his face is very good, and he is also knowledgeable. The little men in the village are almost worshiped as gods. , very well-behaved.Yang Nian was also sitting at the table, but he was mainly helping Yang Changshou serve tea and vegetables, and he was very attentive.
Anyone with a discerning eye could tell that Yang Nian was interested, and the Yang family didn't reject it.
"Brother Changshou." After putting the eldest baby and the second baby to sleep, Yang Qiong finally took the time to come to Yang Fuyuan's table first.In the past month, Second Aunt Yang came over every few days to teach Yang Qiong to take care of the children, and from time to time, she sent a piece of freshly made clothes with excellent stitching, and it was obvious that she had moved her mind.
Second Aunt Yang regarded Yang Qiong as her own child, so she happily took out two silver bracelets and put them in Yang Qiong's hands.Since Yang Changshou's health got better and the family no longer needed to spend money, Second Uncle Yang and Second Aunt Yang were capable and saved some money, but these two bracelets probably spent all the money they saved.
It's just that Yang Qiong also knew that since he helped Yang Changshou regardless of rewards, the account could not be settled clearly and unambiguously, and the silver bracelet under his hand talked for a while before it was transferred to Qian Jin's table.
All the famous old men in the village were invited, and Qian came in. Yang Qiong came and talked for a while before leaving.Now Han Qingshi has a good brain and a shrewd look in his eyes, which is just right for dealing with these old people.And it was Yang Qiong who made some people in the village have spare money and full of confidence. These old men looked happy, and felt that they had face when the money came in.
But the men and boys in the yard were much more casual. They had been busy with Yang Qiong for the past few months, knowing that Yang Qiong didn't like politeness, so they simply said hello and ate.
Most of the banquets are meat dishes, and there are also a lot of green vegetables, all of which are the freshest green vegetables grown in the greenhouse. Yang Qiong is not short of money, so he directly takes some vegetables for cooking.
When the weather is cold, the farmers also eat white radish, Chinese cabbage, and sun-dried vegetables. At this time, it is very pleasant to eat a mouthful of fresh green vegetables grown in the greenhouse.
There is also a pork knuckle on each table, which is boiled in an iron pot with added ingredients, and the aroma is tangy.
Near noon, a few people came to my door, but they were not from the village.
"My boss knew you didn't like too many people coming, so he sent me here." An old face of the shopkeeper came in with a smile. Joan's.
Thinking that his current status in the village is different from before, Yang Qiong also felt that there was no need to hide it any longer. With Laike Restaurant as a backer, those who want to think about the idea of a greenhouse in the future have to think again.
"Come in." Yang Qiong smiled.Zhu San sent people to collect the vegetables every once in a while, so he naturally knew that Yang Qiong was unable to go out while waiting for delivery at home. There were several times when Li Xiaoju managed the business. The full moon wine is coming this day.
Slowly, a large cart of gifts was unloaded, and there were two small golden locks made of gold, one for the older baby and one for the second baby.The shopkeeper was not very familiar with Yang Qiong, not as familiar as Zhu Sanshu, so he left after sitting for a while.
Qian came in to recognize the shopkeeper, and he was even happier at the moment, knowing that Yang Qiong had a serious relationship with Laike Restaurant, and at the same time completely rested his mind, he just needs to be upright, the village is developing, which is a great thing.
But Qian came in and talked to the old people on the table, and the old people couldn't help feeling that Yang Qiong's life was getting better and better. Fortunately, he was not selfish and led the people in the village to live a better life.
Because there were outsiders, Alaska squatted in the house, and the curtain in front of the kang was opened a crack, just in time to see the baby who was sleeping soundly inside.Suddenly, Erwa opened her small mouth and burst into tears. Alaska jumped, squeezed open the door and got out, and she didn't forget to turn around and bite the doorknob to close it, and ran to find Yang Qiong.
[Aww, master, Erwa is crying again. 】
The second baby cried earth-shatteringly, and it took a long time to be coaxed. Alaska had seen it a long time ago. At this time, the dog's tail hair was blown up.
"I'm sorry, the child is probably crying." Yang Qiong hurriedly told everyone.Alaska ran ahead, opened the door first, and waited for Yang Qiong to run in before pushing the door.
☆, 77|76.75.74.73.72.6.20
There is no need to worry about food and drink, there is a large shed that can make money, and there are two dolls. Yang Qiong is very satisfied.Of course, it would be even better if the second baby could not be so troublesome.
After the full moon wine, the family life returned to calm again. Apart from taking the children, Yang Qiong went to the shed to see the situation. It is not so easy to grow off-season greens, and there will be some minor problems. Fortunately, Yang Qiong can solve them.
The weather is getting colder and colder, so Yang Qiong puts on the padded clothes made by Second Aunt Yang, Han Qingshi also puts on new clothes, the eldest baby and the second baby also get a new set of small clothes, but they are still young and don't need to go out, they just Wearing close-fitting cotton clothes to sleep on the hot kang.Yang Qiong also made a special trip to the town to buy some finished cotton-padded clothes. Because they bought a lot, the store gave them a lot of discounts.
The men who help the workers each have one, and the younger ones are thicker, and the colors are also good-looking. Not only are they warmer, but they are also very good-looking.
There were many stoves burning in the shed, and all the stoves on the ground were also burning. In order to maintain the temperature inside, a layer of thatch was covered on the outside. When Yang Qiong entered, a gust of warm air rushed over his face.
"You don't need to take care of the leeks carefully. You have to cut one crop after another. Pay more attention to the cucumbers. Use a brush to pollinate them manually. Don't drop the fruit." Yang Qiong walked inside, saying as she walked.
Li Xiaoju made a careful note that it was warm in the shed, so she didn't wear a cotton waistcoat.In the past half a year, Li Xiaoju has grown a lot, and she no longer looks like the youthful young man she used to be. Now she has a shrewd look on her face, she works neatly, and manages many younger brothers under her, quite prestigious.
Chen Ahu's ducks went directly to the duck pen of Yang Qiong's house, and they also followed the helpers. This was Li Xiaoju's idea. Come down, hold your head high wherever you go, and you are no longer the same as before.
"Yang Zi, many people in the village have asked me about whether we are still recruiting." Li Xiaoju followed behind, and the other brothers smiled when they saw Yang Qiong, and continued to work with their heads down.
The Chinese New Year is approaching, the business is the best during the year before, and you can make a lot of money, so the frequency of coming to the town is fast.Laike restaurants don't need a lot of fresh vegetables, and the most important ones are restaurants in county towns and state capitals. There are many rich people, and they don't care about such a small amount of money.There are even many rich families who order dishes in restaurants, and they give a lot of money, as long as they take home fresh vegetables and cook them themselves.
Yang Qiong asked Zhu San before, and knew that there are greenhouses in other places, but the technology is not good, and the green vegetables grown are wilted and yellow. It is better to eat Chinese cabbage, and the business is naturally not as good as Yang Qiong's.
"Take a decisive look at the time. You have to be busy before the year, and recruit a few more brothers." Yang Qiong thought for a while and continued, "Be careful this time, as long as you have a good personality."
"Yang Zi, don't worry, if a little brother comes, I will pay attention to this point." Li Xiaoju laughed straight, "Now the village is looking forward to us recruiting people. If someone with bad character comes in, I don't need you." Said that the whole village can find him out."
In the winter, there is no work in the fields, and the men and buddies are all free, and everyone often visits.Everyone in Yang Qiong gave out two cotton coats, both of which were made of thick new cotton fabric. The two were worn alternately, and the men worked harder. People in the village would say that they were men who helped Yang Qiong when they were free. little buddies.
After coming and going, everyone found that the men who worked for Yang Qiong were usually very good-tempered and didn't offend anyone.Even Ji Xiaolian and Yang Liu'er, since they separated from their family, their word-of-mouth has gotten better and better, and the villagers will smile when they see them.
Everyone said that it was all thanks to Yang Qiong, and looking at Ji's family, Ji Yuanqiu taught the youngest boys in the school, and he basically didn't go home, so he lived in the school.Shi Jinhua and Ji Dashan seem to be more than ten years old, living their lives in a daze.Shi Jinhua became more and more crazy, crying and cursing at home when she was in a bad mood, and tidying up the house when she was in a good mood.
Besides the Yang family, Li Chunhua seemed to have really rested her mind, she just sneered a few times when she saw Yang Liu'er every day, but she didn't do any more extraordinary things.
"Yang Zi." Yang Liu'er was wearing a brand new cotton coat and a blue waistcoat, which he made by himself by saving money and going to the town to rip the cloth.Not to mention, Yang Qiong thought about the styles she had seen in her previous life and pointed out a few words, and Yang Liuer thought about it herself, and she really figured it out.
This vest is different from ordinary ones. It is cut very close to the body, and the waist is tucked in. The little brother wears it very nicely. The other little brothers also tore the cloth by themselves and made one like Yang Liuer. It is a bit like a uniform work clothes.
"Liu'er, come here." Yang Liuer followed her for a while, Yang Qiong already regarded him as her younger brother, "What do you guys have for lunch?"
"Wowotou and stir-fried vegetables. A few days ago, pigs were slaughtered in the village. I discussed with my brothers and used part of the food expenses to buy a lot of pork and pigs." Yang Liuer said while counting with his fingers, " In this way, it is more cost-effective than buying pork alone.”
Yang Liu'er and a few younger brothers formed a small cafeteria. Yang Qiong directly allocated a sum of money to distribute to them, and each sum had to be recorded, but it was very convenient for management.
"En." Yang Qiong nodded, and went to look at other sheds, guessing that the eldest and second children should wake up, so they hurried home.
It’s cold now, and Alaska doesn’t go out of the house anymore. He lies in the side room all day long. If there is no one in the room, he will be responsible for watching the eldest and second children. As long as one of them wakes up, he will go out and call for someone. If there is an adult in the room, Alaska You can sleep soundly.
As the boss of the dogs in the village, Alaska is also very busy.The weather is getting colder and there are fewer and fewer edible things in the mountains. Some weasels and the like will inevitably run to the village.Yang Qiong's house is a green brick and tile house, and the drains under the wall are blocked with iron bars, and the door is made of heavy solid wood, without any gaps.
But the shed is different. Except for a house where people live, the shed is just a few layers of thatch outside, and the inside is oiled paper cloth, which can be poked open even if you poke it hard. If rabbits, weasels, etc. slip in, the loss will be great. big.
At this time, it reflects the power of Alaska.Every afternoon, Alaska would run out of his home and go outside the shed to do ointment.The dogs in the village are divided into two groups, and they work in shifts, one shift per day, one shift per day.
【Big black. 】
【arrive. 】
[Ah Huang. 】
【arrive. 】
[Two dogs. 】
【arrive. 】
……
The dogs lined up in two rows in front of Alaska. When Alaska yelled, a dog responded. When the time was over, Alaska ran to the hut and took a small cloth bag and began to distribute benefits. Sometimes it was A meat bun, sometimes a small steamed bun, a small piece of oil cake.
When it's time to eat, a man will come out with a pot, and there is a stone basin at the door of each kennel.
After finishing the work, Alaska strolled back home. Luckily, both the eldest and second children were sleeping, so they could lie on the edge of the kang and watch for a while. Unlucky, Alaska had to go to the corner if the eldest or second child didn’t sleep Get down on the ground, enduring the piercing cry of the magic sound.
The shed was getting more and more busy, Yang Qiong and Han Qingshi took turns leaving home to go to the shed to take command.
The hot pot business is the best in winter. Many families who have saved money for a year can't stand the temptation of hot pot, so they drag their families to have a meal.The restaurant business is getting better and better, the price of green vegetables is rising steadily, and the supply is still in short supply.
"Limited supply, only a few dishes per table, determined according to the green vegetables prepared that day." Zhu San sent someone to ask for ideas, Yang Qiong said without thinking, "Reservations are accepted, but ordered dishes are not accepted." Hot pot bottom ingredients There are many kinds, for ordinary people, for rich people, and for big shots, Yang Qiong wrote them all on paper.
After collecting the money, Yang Qiong handed it to Li Xiaoju who was standing beside him, "Brother Xiaoju, remember it."
Li Xiaoju held a writing brush in one hand, and kept the accounts in a decent manner, while with the other hand, she cracked the calculation board, calculated quickly, and quickly obtained the data and reported it to Yang Qiong.
The closer it gets to the end of the year, the busier it gets, and the coolies in the village are all back. Let’s count the money I saved, and then listen to the wages Yang Qiong sends to the men. Comparing this, Gao Down now.
It's a great thing to get so much wages by tending vegetables, picking water, watering vegetables, weeding, feeding ducks and pigs every day, and having cotton collars.
The big green peppers were picked and placed in baskets, and the men carried the baskets to the door of the shed to be weighed.Eggplants, cucumbers, etc. were picked and put in baskets, and the men carried them to the shed door to line up.Now the business is getting better and better, and the supply exceeds the demand. A special place has been opened at the entrance of the shed. It is very warm with a stove. The people sent by Zhu San will weigh it here, and then load the carriage.
"Everyone work hard, there will be a big red envelope at the end of the year." Yang Qiong stood aside and watched the men laughing one by one.
"Hey, last year the family cut off two catties of pork during the Chinese New Year, which was not enough to leave relatives, but today we have to cut about ten catties." A dark-complexioned man said carelessly.
"No, I worked hard in the town for several months last year. I was exhausted, and the money I saved in the end was enough to tear a piece of cloth for my family."
"Don't talk about it, look at the little brothers in our village who have pulled the blue cloth to make their own clothes. I think the men in the next village are going to be greedy."
"Our fat and water don't flow into outsiders' fields. How nice it is for my little brother to marry me in this village."
The men were talking and laughing, and they would move to the next shed after the weighing here, so they would come again every few days, Yang Qiong was really soft on counting the money.
When I can finally take a break, it will be the Chinese New Year soon.
There is only a holiday three days before the new year, and the greenhouse continues to be busy. Even during the holiday, there must be a man on duty, so that he can earn another fortune before the warmer weather comes.
No one has too much money, and the pockets of the men who worked with Yang Qiong were all bulging.
This year will be the best year ever.Yang Qiong is also happy, with more and more money in hand, the eldest baby and the second baby can now play together, because there is no shortage of milk to drink every day, and they grow up very fast, especially the eldest baby, who already knows how to protest and give him a drink I don't have enough milk.
☆, 78|77.76.75.74.73.72.6.20
"This is the new clothes I made for the eldest and second children. I will change them on the first day of the new year." Second Aunt Yang put the clothes on the kang, sat for a while and left in a hurry.
There are only two days left before the Chinese New Year, and every household is busy cleaning up the house, making delicious food, and those who have spare money will cut pork and buy new clothes for the family.
On the kang were two sets of red festive cotton-padded clothes, as well as tiger-head shoes and a tiger-head hat. The lining was made of soft cotton cloth, which was very warm to the touch.Yang Qiong poked the big baby's soft cheeks, turned to Han Qingshi and said, "Qingshi, cut a pork leg, and then cut a lamb leg and send it to Second Uncle Yang's house."
"Okay." Han Qingshi nodded.
One day before, Yang Qiong gave his helpers a holiday and didn't go to work until the seventh day of the Lunar New Year.At the same time as the wages were paid, everyone wrapped a red envelope.The men and boys are all smiling. In the past ten days before the year, pigs were slaughtered every day. The price of pork is a little bit expensive, but those who have spare money will buy some.
The piglets in Yang Qiong's family haven't grown up yet, so he simply bought one. Anyway, the temperature is low in winter, and the whole natural refrigerator hangs the pork directly in the side room, and it freezes overnight.
Contrary to the extremely low temperature outside, Yang Qiong's place is warm all day long.The stove in the house does not stop burning all day long, and the stove is always warmed with hot water, and the kang is very warm.A few days ago, Li Xiaoju came to help, and all the things for the New Year were almost prepared. At this time, Han Qingshi was handling two carp, which were to be used for the New Year's Eve dinner.
Alaska opened the door and slipped in, closed the door again, shook off the cold air from his body, ran over and squatted by the stove to warm up.Staring at the head of the kang with round eyes, and then at the carp in Han Qingshi's hand, the dog's tail shook.
【Aww, I don't like fish very much. 】
"Pfft, Gaga, come here." Yang Qiong waved to Alaska, picked up a cloth bag in the basket, "The dogs on duty at the shed have worked hard, today's extra meal, each dog has three meat bags. "
Pure white flour, no brown rice flour added, pure meat stuffing, the soft white and fat buns are still steaming at this moment, there are quite a few in this bag, Yang Qiong reckons it is almost enough.Alaska rushed over, rubbed the dog's head against Yang Qiong's hand, and then looked at the eldest and second children who were sleeping in the dark on the kang.
[The little master is too lazy, eat and sleep, sleep and eat. 】
"Come on, you'll know when they stop eating and sleeping and tossing people." Yang Qiong sent Alaska out with a smile.
Han Qingshi finished handling the fish, hung it outside, cut off the pork and lamb legs, and put them in the basket, "I'll go to Uncle Yang's house, won't the Yang family send some?"
"En..." Yang Qiong hesitated for a moment, nodded and said, "Let's cut a catty of meat and send it away." He has a good relationship with Yang Liu'er, and everyone in the village can see that although they have broken off their relationship, Yang Liu'er is still there. However, it is not easy for Yang Qiong to do too much. The main reason is that his status in the village is not low now, and Li Chunhua can't make any moths anymore.
Besides Yang Changshou, Yang Nian first appeared at Yang's house for a few days, and then followed him into the school. The villagers were curious when they saw it, but no one asked.Besides, the little guys who came to the school to study ran home and chanted, how good the teacher is, it's like praising the sky.
Yang Qiong pointed out a few words, after the little guys entered the school, the first thing they learned was etiquette, not just for teachers.As a result, this group of leather monkeys who usually go to the house to Jiewa changed a lot when they left the school, and it looked like that.
Gradually, Yang Changshou became more and more capable in the eyes of the farmers. Not only could he control the little guys, but he could also teach them as if they were a different person.For Yang Nian, because of the presence of the capable Yang Changshou, the farmers thought it was normal.Later, Ji Yuanqiu also entered the school to teach, and the farmers objected, but Yang Changshou settled it with a few words, and his status in the village was improved.
Han Qingshi went to Uncle Yang's house with pork and lamb legs. Yang Nian was chopping wood in the yard. Now the Yang family was different. All the bundles that Joan received have been sent to Yang's family, and the days are getting better and better.
Putting down the pork leg and lamb leg, Han Qingshi didn't stay long, and went to Yang Datie's house with a catty of pork.
The stupid self in my mind is still very clear, working stupidly, getting the brown rice pancakes, reluctant to eat them, and bringing them to Fu Lang in his arms.Today is not what it used to be, Han Qingshi's mind is clear, and when he looks at the Yang family, let's not talk about what he thinks in his heart, that is, the life of the Yang family now is definitely not as good as his own.
"Is anyone home?" Han Qingshi pushed open the door, the yard was deserted, and it didn't look like it was about to celebrate the New Year at all.
After a while, the door of the West Room opened with a creak, and Yang Liuer poked her head out to take a look, "Brother Han."
"Are you at home alone?" Li Chunhua and Yang Datie were not seen, and Han Qingshi did not enter the yard, but stood at the gate, "Come here and take the meat back."
After going back and putting on the cotton coat, Yang Liu'er came out, picked up the pork, sniffed and told about the family affairs.
It turned out that it was a holiday the day before yesterday afternoon, and Yang Liuer ran home with her wages and red envelopes, while Li Chunhua was yelling at home, saying that there was no money for Chinese New Year, and the family couldn't even afford to cut a piece of meat.In the past six months, Li Chunhua saved some money and sent it to her natal family, hoping to find out about Yang Dalang.
I heard the news that Yang Dalang is doing well, but Li Chunhua has lost all his money.
This year is still to be passed, so Yang Liu'er had to take out her red envelope, which contained a lot of money, so it was enough to celebrate the new year tightly.Li Chunhua stopped cursing after receiving the money, and began to cut meat and buy things for the New Year.
Everything was fine, but yesterday afternoon, a group of men in official uniforms carried a man to Yang Datie's house, put him down, left 20 taels of silver and a contract, and left.
This man was Yang Dalang, and it was his misfortune. The Chinese New Year was approaching, and the quarry was on holiday, and the men all lived together, so they naturally celebrated the New Year together, but the quarry also had to be on duty.The quarry was very windy, and Yang Dalang hid in the crevices of the rocks to avoid the wind. When a landslide happened, one of his legs was crushed by the rocks.
The injured man can no longer work, the contract is automatically voided, and the yamen will pay 20 taels of silver. As for Yang Dalang's salary for the past six months, it is the travel expenses for sending him back.
The man came back, but his leg was broken, and he didn't deal with it. Yang Dalang passed out, and Li Chunhua went crazy at that time. That afternoon, he borrowed a bullock cart and Yang Datie and took Yang Dalang to the town to find a doctor. None came back.
After listening to what Yang Liuer said, Han Qingshi was silent for a moment, and said: "If you don't come back for the New Year, come to my place for the New Year."
"En." Yang Liu'er nodded.
Han Qingshi stopped by to have a look at his own greenhouse, comforted the man on duty, and finally returned home and told Yang Qiong about Yang Dalang.
"The matter of the quarry was caused by Shi Jinhua. At first Li Chunhua wanted you to go, haha." Yang Qiong sneered, and said nothing after that.
New Year's Eve in the afternoon
"You go to heat the hot water, and then call someone to help." Wen Po is a woman in her fifties, and she has delivered many children in these ten miles and eight villages, and she is very experienced.
As soon as she knew that Yang Qiong was pregnant, Second Aunt Yang made preparations. She specially tore out some festive cotton fabrics, bought the latest cotton, and made small cotton jackets, cotton trousers, and soft bedding.I also agreed to take care of Yang Qiong, and dared not sleep every night, just sleeping lightly with clothes on.So, as soon as Han Qingshi went to knock on the door, Second Aunt Yang got up and ran out.
Yang Qiong only felt that half of his life was gone, and the pain below was like a knife placed in the stomach and kept stirring, and all internal organs were displaced.
Fortunately, there is the baby's bath water that has been prepared a long time ago. Take a sip to restore your vitality and continue.
Not long after Second Aunt Yang came, she heard Granny Wen's voice saying "Come on". After a while, a small red baby was born with a resounding voice.
"This child is a bit small, and there is probably another child in his stomach." Wen Po was very experienced, so she went to Yang Qiong to check again, and sure enough, there was another child.
The second one was finally born, smaller in size and crying like a cat, which sounds pitiful.Yang Qiong's whole body seemed to be fished out of the water, and finally heaved a sigh of relief and passed out.
The little brother has no milk, and the baby usually drinks goat's milk or cow's milk after birth. Han Qingshi has already prepared these.In the yard next door, there are two lambs that have just calved, and a cow.
Han Qingshi gave Granny Wen a reward, and Granny Wen said auspicious words and helped clean up before leaving.
For a whole night, the second baby was born at Mao time, and the eldest baby was half an hour earlier.
"The older one is the little man, and the younger one is the little brother. Oh, what a blessing." Second Aunt Yang couldn't help but smile from ear to ear. The two children were wrapped in quilts, and each of them hugged Han Qingshi.
Yang Qiong woke up, drank a bowl of baby's bath water, and looked at the two red monkey-like children lying beside her, and couldn't help wrinkling her face, "It's so ugly."
"I've just been born, and I'll be fat for nothing in two days." Second Aunt Yang sat on the edge of the kang and said with a smile.
Yang Qiong couldn't help turning her head to see if it was the flesh that fell from her body, but her body was too weak and tired, so she soon fell asleep again.
It was evening when Yang Qiong woke up again, and when Yang Qiong looked up, he saw Han Qingshi carefully holding the baby and feeding him water.On the first day of birth, the baby should drink some water first, and then drink milk.
"I made porridge, wait a minute." Han Qingshi put the baby on the kang, and Yang Qiong knew it was the eldest baby at a glance, and the eldest baby was older than the second baby.
The porridge is carefully boiled, with a lot of medicinal materials added to it, stewed in a casserole, soft and fragrant.After drinking two small bowls in one breath, Yang Qiong felt a little strength in his body, sat up carefully, and poked Dawa's face with his hand.
Because the baby was too small, Alaska did not allow it to approach, so he had to jump on the bench and look up at the dog.
[Aww, little monkey. 】
"Pfft, it really looks like a little monkey." Yang Qiong also laughed, "The eldest baby and the second baby need to grow up quickly, so that they can play with Jia Jia."
The child's delivery went well, and Yang Qiong was happy, and gave generous red envelopes to the men and boys who helped in the shed, as well as the men who helped feed the ducks and pigs at home.
Within a few days, everyone in the village basically knew that Yang Qiong had given birth to twins, both big and small.Han Qingshi's life is really getting better and better. The fool who only knew how to work hard and go home to serve his husband can no longer be seen.Now Han Qingshi's family has a green brick and tile house, and a shed that everyone knows is valuable. With two more children, life is better than that of a fairy.
"Give the second baby more food." Since the eldest baby and the second baby are much smaller than the average baby, Yang Qiong's body was not seriously injured, and he recovered almost in a few days, and he can get out of bed and walk around a little.But seeing the big baby who can eat very much, he can eat as much milk every time he is fed, and the second baby is like a kitten, who will stop eating after a few mouthfuls. Yang Qiong hurriedly told Han Qingshi, "Hey again, second baby too small."
【Aww, the little monkey has become a baby. 】
Alaska stood in the distance and looked at the kang, but he was still not allowed to approach, but he was still very interested, wishing he could squat on the stool and look at the little master every day.
The eldest child started to sleep soundly after feeding, like a little pig. The second child closed his mouth and refused to nurse or sleep. It was quite difficult to take care of.
☆, 76|75.74.73.72.6.20
In just a few days, the eldest baby and the second baby seemed to have been reborn. The original appearance of the little red monkey disappeared, replaced by a white and fat baby with a poked face that looks like water can flow out.
Fearing that the cold wind coming in and out of the door would blow on the kang, Han Qingshi specially wrapped a thick cloth around the kang, like a curtain, which could be opened and closed. Yang Qiong had been on the kang for the past few days and never came down. .
At the beginning, the eldest baby and the second baby fed more frequently, Han Qingshi and Yang Qiong didn't know much about it, and the second aunt Yang didn't go home. She slept on a temporary bed next to the side room at night, and could get up to take care of the two babies at any time.
In the past few days, Yang Qiong is fine, as long as he eats and drinks well and takes care of himself, Han Qingshi has almost formed a conditioned reflex, as long as the eldest or second baby cries, he will get up immediately and light the lamp.At first, I just watched Second Aunt Yang busy with her work, but gradually I was able to help, and after a few days, I finally fully mastered it.
"Second Aunt Yang hasn't had a good rest these days, thank you. Qingshi can take care of her, so you can go home and rest for a few days." Yang Qiong said with a smile while lying on the kang.The older baby is better, she sleeps when she is full, she only grunts when she urinates, changes her diaper and then pats it, then falls asleep again, and the second baby has to struggle a little bit, she can’t be hugged, she can’t be put on the kang, It still has to shake back and forth, and it takes a long time to make a fuss in the middle of the night.
Second Aunt Yang was getting old, and after a few days of tossing, although her spirit was still good, her body couldn't bear it. Yang Qiong said this for her sake.Second Aunt Yang didn't know it herself, and seeing Han Qingshi holding her second baby in her arms and breastfeeding her in a decent manner, she felt relieved, and gave some instructions before getting up and leaving.
"Gaga, come and see the eldest baby and the second baby." Seeing Alaska nestled in the corner all day, occasionally raising the dog's head to look here, and not daring to approach because he didn't get permission, the whole dog became depressed .Neither he nor Han Qingshi are allergic to dogs, and the eldest and second children should be too, so Yang Qiong simply called Alaska over.
[Aww, little master. 】
Alaska jumped over from the kennel, with his front paws resting on the edge of the bed, waiting for his round eyes to look at the two sleeping babies.
"You can't lick them yet, and you can't get too close. You can wait until the eldest baby and the second baby grow up." Yang Qiong poked the white and soft cheeks of the eldest baby, and poked a small dimple, which was very tender.
"Wow...wow..." Erwa suddenly opened her small mouth, and burst into a loud cry.
With a swipe, he jumped aside, and Alaska raised his dog's head to look at the second baby who burst into tears on the kang. 【Crying...crying...】
"Probably peed." Yang Qiong hurriedly picked up the second baby, touched the little butt, and sure enough the diaper was wet, "Qingshi, take the diaper."
The weather is cold and the sun is not too harsh. After washing the diapers, they hang them next to the stove to bake. The eldest baby and the second baby use them together, and they have to wash a lot of diapers every day.Fortunately, Han Qingshi washes it every day, and he is... used to it...
He came over with a diaper, took the second baby, untied the quilt neatly, changed the diaper, Han Qingshi took the dirty diaper to the side and continued to wash.After a while, the big baby started to fuss again, and it looked like he was peeing, so he continued to change diapers and wash...
The days went by like this day by day, and they passed by so fast.
Yang Qiong's status is extraordinary now, her family has a big tile-roofed house, there are dozens of ducks, several piglets, and a shed that has earned a lot of money. Naturally, the full moon wine for the eldest baby and the second baby is going to be big. .
The good people in the village were asked to check the date, and Yang Qiong began to prepare after it was finalized.The guys who helped Yang Qiong added a few more recently, and earned more money than going to the town to do hard work. Naturally, everyone didn't say that Yang Qiong was wrong, and they all praised Yang Qiong openly and secretly.There are more men in the village who have made money, and it is more face-saving to talk about it. Some men who have not yet spoken of their relationship have become sweet pastries, and younger brothers from other villages are willing to marry here.
The little buddies who worked for Yang Qiong had broadened their horizons a lot, but they were not in a hurry to marry. Some of them also secretly looked at the men in the village and did not plan to marry to other villages.
"Please invite the helpers to have a meal. The old people in the village, Uncle Yang's family, and Lizheng's family, that's about it." Yang Qiong sat on the kang and thought, "I absolutely don't welcome Yang Datie and Ji's family. , but Ji Xiaolian and Yang Liuer can come, these two little brothers have changed a lot."
As far as Ji Xiaolian is concerned, the changes are really not small. Ever since she got engaged to Wu Manbao and worked with Wu Xiaoyue, she has a lot of liveliness, and she doesn't pay attention to Shi Jinhua when she returns home. There are many.Fortunately, Ji Yuanqiu's temperament has changed recently, and he also helped Ji Dashan work in the field at home, but he had never been in the field, and he was very uncomfortable, and he started to burn in a few days.
"Brother Changshou plans to take a few children from the next village to try out after a while, and I need someone to help." Yang Qiong continued to poke the big baby's soft cheek, "Although Yang Nian is literate, his knowledge is not as good as that of Xiao Ju, but that Ji Yuanqiu It's a good fit."
"Yang Zi, don't worry about it. The full moon wine is not done yet." Han Qingshi went to the shed, and Li Xiaoju was finally free, so she hurried to Yang Qiong's side to help.Some fine work is still done by the little brother, after a while, Yang Liuer and Ji Xiaolian came to work together.
Although the younger brother's physique is better than that of the female, he needs to be taken care of carefully after giving birth. Yang Qiong dare not be sloppy, and basically does not leave the house. Li Xiaoju led Yang Liuer and Ji Xiaolian to work on the full moon wine.
Although the eldest baby and the second baby were relatively small when they were born, but because the milk kept up with them, they grew up white and fat, and looked extremely cute.Yang Qiong carried the eldest child around for a walk when she had nothing to do. As for the second child, she was too noisy and left it to Han Qingshi to make trouble.
On the day of the full moon wine, it was a rare sunny day, the sun was very good, and there was no wind in the yard for a day. Two tables were set up in the side room, Yang Ershu's family and Li Zheng's family, and the others directly set up tables in the yard.
Now Yang Changshou is no different from ordinary people except for his thin body. His voice is elegant, his face is very good, and he is also knowledgeable. The little men in the village are almost worshiped as gods. , very well-behaved.Yang Nian was also sitting at the table, but he was mainly helping Yang Changshou serve tea and vegetables, and he was very attentive.
Anyone with a discerning eye could tell that Yang Nian was interested, and the Yang family didn't reject it.
"Brother Changshou." After putting the eldest baby and the second baby to sleep, Yang Qiong finally took the time to come to Yang Fuyuan's table first.In the past month, Second Aunt Yang came over every few days to teach Yang Qiong to take care of the children, and from time to time, she sent a piece of freshly made clothes with excellent stitching, and it was obvious that she had moved her mind.
Second Aunt Yang regarded Yang Qiong as her own child, so she happily took out two silver bracelets and put them in Yang Qiong's hands.Since Yang Changshou's health got better and the family no longer needed to spend money, Second Uncle Yang and Second Aunt Yang were capable and saved some money, but these two bracelets probably spent all the money they saved.
It's just that Yang Qiong also knew that since he helped Yang Changshou regardless of rewards, the account could not be settled clearly and unambiguously, and the silver bracelet under his hand talked for a while before it was transferred to Qian Jin's table.
All the famous old men in the village were invited, and Qian came in. Yang Qiong came and talked for a while before leaving.Now Han Qingshi has a good brain and a shrewd look in his eyes, which is just right for dealing with these old people.And it was Yang Qiong who made some people in the village have spare money and full of confidence. These old men looked happy, and felt that they had face when the money came in.
But the men and boys in the yard were much more casual. They had been busy with Yang Qiong for the past few months, knowing that Yang Qiong didn't like politeness, so they simply said hello and ate.
Most of the banquets are meat dishes, and there are also a lot of green vegetables, all of which are the freshest green vegetables grown in the greenhouse. Yang Qiong is not short of money, so he directly takes some vegetables for cooking.
When the weather is cold, the farmers also eat white radish, Chinese cabbage, and sun-dried vegetables. At this time, it is very pleasant to eat a mouthful of fresh green vegetables grown in the greenhouse.
There is also a pork knuckle on each table, which is boiled in an iron pot with added ingredients, and the aroma is tangy.
Near noon, a few people came to my door, but they were not from the village.
"My boss knew you didn't like too many people coming, so he sent me here." An old face of the shopkeeper came in with a smile. Joan's.
Thinking that his current status in the village is different from before, Yang Qiong also felt that there was no need to hide it any longer. With Laike Restaurant as a backer, those who want to think about the idea of a greenhouse in the future have to think again.
"Come in." Yang Qiong smiled.Zhu San sent people to collect the vegetables every once in a while, so he naturally knew that Yang Qiong was unable to go out while waiting for delivery at home. There were several times when Li Xiaoju managed the business. The full moon wine is coming this day.
Slowly, a large cart of gifts was unloaded, and there were two small golden locks made of gold, one for the older baby and one for the second baby.The shopkeeper was not very familiar with Yang Qiong, not as familiar as Zhu Sanshu, so he left after sitting for a while.
Qian came in to recognize the shopkeeper, and he was even happier at the moment, knowing that Yang Qiong had a serious relationship with Laike Restaurant, and at the same time completely rested his mind, he just needs to be upright, the village is developing, which is a great thing.
But Qian came in and talked to the old people on the table, and the old people couldn't help feeling that Yang Qiong's life was getting better and better. Fortunately, he was not selfish and led the people in the village to live a better life.
Because there were outsiders, Alaska squatted in the house, and the curtain in front of the kang was opened a crack, just in time to see the baby who was sleeping soundly inside.Suddenly, Erwa opened her small mouth and burst into tears. Alaska jumped, squeezed open the door and got out, and she didn't forget to turn around and bite the doorknob to close it, and ran to find Yang Qiong.
[Aww, master, Erwa is crying again. 】
The second baby cried earth-shatteringly, and it took a long time to be coaxed. Alaska had seen it a long time ago. At this time, the dog's tail hair was blown up.
"I'm sorry, the child is probably crying." Yang Qiong hurriedly told everyone.Alaska ran ahead, opened the door first, and waited for Yang Qiong to run in before pushing the door.
☆, 77|76.75.74.73.72.6.20
There is no need to worry about food and drink, there is a large shed that can make money, and there are two dolls. Yang Qiong is very satisfied.Of course, it would be even better if the second baby could not be so troublesome.
After the full moon wine, the family life returned to calm again. Apart from taking the children, Yang Qiong went to the shed to see the situation. It is not so easy to grow off-season greens, and there will be some minor problems. Fortunately, Yang Qiong can solve them.
The weather is getting colder and colder, so Yang Qiong puts on the padded clothes made by Second Aunt Yang, Han Qingshi also puts on new clothes, the eldest baby and the second baby also get a new set of small clothes, but they are still young and don't need to go out, they just Wearing close-fitting cotton clothes to sleep on the hot kang.Yang Qiong also made a special trip to the town to buy some finished cotton-padded clothes. Because they bought a lot, the store gave them a lot of discounts.
The men who help the workers each have one, and the younger ones are thicker, and the colors are also good-looking. Not only are they warmer, but they are also very good-looking.
There were many stoves burning in the shed, and all the stoves on the ground were also burning. In order to maintain the temperature inside, a layer of thatch was covered on the outside. When Yang Qiong entered, a gust of warm air rushed over his face.
"You don't need to take care of the leeks carefully. You have to cut one crop after another. Pay more attention to the cucumbers. Use a brush to pollinate them manually. Don't drop the fruit." Yang Qiong walked inside, saying as she walked.
Li Xiaoju made a careful note that it was warm in the shed, so she didn't wear a cotton waistcoat.In the past half a year, Li Xiaoju has grown a lot, and she no longer looks like the youthful young man she used to be. Now she has a shrewd look on her face, she works neatly, and manages many younger brothers under her, quite prestigious.
Chen Ahu's ducks went directly to the duck pen of Yang Qiong's house, and they also followed the helpers. This was Li Xiaoju's idea. Come down, hold your head high wherever you go, and you are no longer the same as before.
"Yang Zi, many people in the village have asked me about whether we are still recruiting." Li Xiaoju followed behind, and the other brothers smiled when they saw Yang Qiong, and continued to work with their heads down.
The Chinese New Year is approaching, the business is the best during the year before, and you can make a lot of money, so the frequency of coming to the town is fast.Laike restaurants don't need a lot of fresh vegetables, and the most important ones are restaurants in county towns and state capitals. There are many rich people, and they don't care about such a small amount of money.There are even many rich families who order dishes in restaurants, and they give a lot of money, as long as they take home fresh vegetables and cook them themselves.
Yang Qiong asked Zhu San before, and knew that there are greenhouses in other places, but the technology is not good, and the green vegetables grown are wilted and yellow. It is better to eat Chinese cabbage, and the business is naturally not as good as Yang Qiong's.
"Take a decisive look at the time. You have to be busy before the year, and recruit a few more brothers." Yang Qiong thought for a while and continued, "Be careful this time, as long as you have a good personality."
"Yang Zi, don't worry, if a little brother comes, I will pay attention to this point." Li Xiaoju laughed straight, "Now the village is looking forward to us recruiting people. If someone with bad character comes in, I don't need you." Said that the whole village can find him out."
In the winter, there is no work in the fields, and the men and buddies are all free, and everyone often visits.Everyone in Yang Qiong gave out two cotton coats, both of which were made of thick new cotton fabric. The two were worn alternately, and the men worked harder. People in the village would say that they were men who helped Yang Qiong when they were free. little buddies.
After coming and going, everyone found that the men who worked for Yang Qiong were usually very good-tempered and didn't offend anyone.Even Ji Xiaolian and Yang Liu'er, since they separated from their family, their word-of-mouth has gotten better and better, and the villagers will smile when they see them.
Everyone said that it was all thanks to Yang Qiong, and looking at Ji's family, Ji Yuanqiu taught the youngest boys in the school, and he basically didn't go home, so he lived in the school.Shi Jinhua and Ji Dashan seem to be more than ten years old, living their lives in a daze.Shi Jinhua became more and more crazy, crying and cursing at home when she was in a bad mood, and tidying up the house when she was in a good mood.
Besides the Yang family, Li Chunhua seemed to have really rested her mind, she just sneered a few times when she saw Yang Liu'er every day, but she didn't do any more extraordinary things.
"Yang Zi." Yang Liu'er was wearing a brand new cotton coat and a blue waistcoat, which he made by himself by saving money and going to the town to rip the cloth.Not to mention, Yang Qiong thought about the styles she had seen in her previous life and pointed out a few words, and Yang Liuer thought about it herself, and she really figured it out.
This vest is different from ordinary ones. It is cut very close to the body, and the waist is tucked in. The little brother wears it very nicely. The other little brothers also tore the cloth by themselves and made one like Yang Liuer. It is a bit like a uniform work clothes.
"Liu'er, come here." Yang Liuer followed her for a while, Yang Qiong already regarded him as her younger brother, "What do you guys have for lunch?"
"Wowotou and stir-fried vegetables. A few days ago, pigs were slaughtered in the village. I discussed with my brothers and used part of the food expenses to buy a lot of pork and pigs." Yang Liuer said while counting with his fingers, " In this way, it is more cost-effective than buying pork alone.”
Yang Liu'er and a few younger brothers formed a small cafeteria. Yang Qiong directly allocated a sum of money to distribute to them, and each sum had to be recorded, but it was very convenient for management.
"En." Yang Qiong nodded, and went to look at other sheds, guessing that the eldest and second children should wake up, so they hurried home.
It’s cold now, and Alaska doesn’t go out of the house anymore. He lies in the side room all day long. If there is no one in the room, he will be responsible for watching the eldest and second children. As long as one of them wakes up, he will go out and call for someone. If there is an adult in the room, Alaska You can sleep soundly.
As the boss of the dogs in the village, Alaska is also very busy.The weather is getting colder and there are fewer and fewer edible things in the mountains. Some weasels and the like will inevitably run to the village.Yang Qiong's house is a green brick and tile house, and the drains under the wall are blocked with iron bars, and the door is made of heavy solid wood, without any gaps.
But the shed is different. Except for a house where people live, the shed is just a few layers of thatch outside, and the inside is oiled paper cloth, which can be poked open even if you poke it hard. If rabbits, weasels, etc. slip in, the loss will be great. big.
At this time, it reflects the power of Alaska.Every afternoon, Alaska would run out of his home and go outside the shed to do ointment.The dogs in the village are divided into two groups, and they work in shifts, one shift per day, one shift per day.
【Big black. 】
【arrive. 】
[Ah Huang. 】
【arrive. 】
[Two dogs. 】
【arrive. 】
……
The dogs lined up in two rows in front of Alaska. When Alaska yelled, a dog responded. When the time was over, Alaska ran to the hut and took a small cloth bag and began to distribute benefits. Sometimes it was A meat bun, sometimes a small steamed bun, a small piece of oil cake.
When it's time to eat, a man will come out with a pot, and there is a stone basin at the door of each kennel.
After finishing the work, Alaska strolled back home. Luckily, both the eldest and second children were sleeping, so they could lie on the edge of the kang and watch for a while. Unlucky, Alaska had to go to the corner if the eldest or second child didn’t sleep Get down on the ground, enduring the piercing cry of the magic sound.
The shed was getting more and more busy, Yang Qiong and Han Qingshi took turns leaving home to go to the shed to take command.
The hot pot business is the best in winter. Many families who have saved money for a year can't stand the temptation of hot pot, so they drag their families to have a meal.The restaurant business is getting better and better, the price of green vegetables is rising steadily, and the supply is still in short supply.
"Limited supply, only a few dishes per table, determined according to the green vegetables prepared that day." Zhu San sent someone to ask for ideas, Yang Qiong said without thinking, "Reservations are accepted, but ordered dishes are not accepted." Hot pot bottom ingredients There are many kinds, for ordinary people, for rich people, and for big shots, Yang Qiong wrote them all on paper.
After collecting the money, Yang Qiong handed it to Li Xiaoju who was standing beside him, "Brother Xiaoju, remember it."
Li Xiaoju held a writing brush in one hand, and kept the accounts in a decent manner, while with the other hand, she cracked the calculation board, calculated quickly, and quickly obtained the data and reported it to Yang Qiong.
The closer it gets to the end of the year, the busier it gets, and the coolies in the village are all back. Let’s count the money I saved, and then listen to the wages Yang Qiong sends to the men. Comparing this, Gao Down now.
It's a great thing to get so much wages by tending vegetables, picking water, watering vegetables, weeding, feeding ducks and pigs every day, and having cotton collars.
The big green peppers were picked and placed in baskets, and the men carried the baskets to the door of the shed to be weighed.Eggplants, cucumbers, etc. were picked and put in baskets, and the men carried them to the shed door to line up.Now the business is getting better and better, and the supply exceeds the demand. A special place has been opened at the entrance of the shed. It is very warm with a stove. The people sent by Zhu San will weigh it here, and then load the carriage.
"Everyone work hard, there will be a big red envelope at the end of the year." Yang Qiong stood aside and watched the men laughing one by one.
"Hey, last year the family cut off two catties of pork during the Chinese New Year, which was not enough to leave relatives, but today we have to cut about ten catties." A dark-complexioned man said carelessly.
"No, I worked hard in the town for several months last year. I was exhausted, and the money I saved in the end was enough to tear a piece of cloth for my family."
"Don't talk about it, look at the little brothers in our village who have pulled the blue cloth to make their own clothes. I think the men in the next village are going to be greedy."
"Our fat and water don't flow into outsiders' fields. How nice it is for my little brother to marry me in this village."
The men were talking and laughing, and they would move to the next shed after the weighing here, so they would come again every few days, Yang Qiong was really soft on counting the money.
When I can finally take a break, it will be the Chinese New Year soon.
There is only a holiday three days before the new year, and the greenhouse continues to be busy. Even during the holiday, there must be a man on duty, so that he can earn another fortune before the warmer weather comes.
No one has too much money, and the pockets of the men who worked with Yang Qiong were all bulging.
This year will be the best year ever.Yang Qiong is also happy, with more and more money in hand, the eldest baby and the second baby can now play together, because there is no shortage of milk to drink every day, and they grow up very fast, especially the eldest baby, who already knows how to protest and give him a drink I don't have enough milk.
☆, 78|77.76.75.74.73.72.6.20
"This is the new clothes I made for the eldest and second children. I will change them on the first day of the new year." Second Aunt Yang put the clothes on the kang, sat for a while and left in a hurry.
There are only two days left before the Chinese New Year, and every household is busy cleaning up the house, making delicious food, and those who have spare money will cut pork and buy new clothes for the family.
On the kang were two sets of red festive cotton-padded clothes, as well as tiger-head shoes and a tiger-head hat. The lining was made of soft cotton cloth, which was very warm to the touch.Yang Qiong poked the big baby's soft cheeks, turned to Han Qingshi and said, "Qingshi, cut a pork leg, and then cut a lamb leg and send it to Second Uncle Yang's house."
"Okay." Han Qingshi nodded.
One day before, Yang Qiong gave his helpers a holiday and didn't go to work until the seventh day of the Lunar New Year.At the same time as the wages were paid, everyone wrapped a red envelope.The men and boys are all smiling. In the past ten days before the year, pigs were slaughtered every day. The price of pork is a little bit expensive, but those who have spare money will buy some.
The piglets in Yang Qiong's family haven't grown up yet, so he simply bought one. Anyway, the temperature is low in winter, and the whole natural refrigerator hangs the pork directly in the side room, and it freezes overnight.
Contrary to the extremely low temperature outside, Yang Qiong's place is warm all day long.The stove in the house does not stop burning all day long, and the stove is always warmed with hot water, and the kang is very warm.A few days ago, Li Xiaoju came to help, and all the things for the New Year were almost prepared. At this time, Han Qingshi was handling two carp, which were to be used for the New Year's Eve dinner.
Alaska opened the door and slipped in, closed the door again, shook off the cold air from his body, ran over and squatted by the stove to warm up.Staring at the head of the kang with round eyes, and then at the carp in Han Qingshi's hand, the dog's tail shook.
【Aww, I don't like fish very much. 】
"Pfft, Gaga, come here." Yang Qiong waved to Alaska, picked up a cloth bag in the basket, "The dogs on duty at the shed have worked hard, today's extra meal, each dog has three meat bags. "
Pure white flour, no brown rice flour added, pure meat stuffing, the soft white and fat buns are still steaming at this moment, there are quite a few in this bag, Yang Qiong reckons it is almost enough.Alaska rushed over, rubbed the dog's head against Yang Qiong's hand, and then looked at the eldest and second children who were sleeping in the dark on the kang.
[The little master is too lazy, eat and sleep, sleep and eat. 】
"Come on, you'll know when they stop eating and sleeping and tossing people." Yang Qiong sent Alaska out with a smile.
Han Qingshi finished handling the fish, hung it outside, cut off the pork and lamb legs, and put them in the basket, "I'll go to Uncle Yang's house, won't the Yang family send some?"
"En..." Yang Qiong hesitated for a moment, nodded and said, "Let's cut a catty of meat and send it away." He has a good relationship with Yang Liu'er, and everyone in the village can see that although they have broken off their relationship, Yang Liu'er is still there. However, it is not easy for Yang Qiong to do too much. The main reason is that his status in the village is not low now, and Li Chunhua can't make any moths anymore.
Besides Yang Changshou, Yang Nian first appeared at Yang's house for a few days, and then followed him into the school. The villagers were curious when they saw it, but no one asked.Besides, the little guys who came to the school to study ran home and chanted, how good the teacher is, it's like praising the sky.
Yang Qiong pointed out a few words, after the little guys entered the school, the first thing they learned was etiquette, not just for teachers.As a result, this group of leather monkeys who usually go to the house to Jiewa changed a lot when they left the school, and it looked like that.
Gradually, Yang Changshou became more and more capable in the eyes of the farmers. Not only could he control the little guys, but he could also teach them as if they were a different person.For Yang Nian, because of the presence of the capable Yang Changshou, the farmers thought it was normal.Later, Ji Yuanqiu also entered the school to teach, and the farmers objected, but Yang Changshou settled it with a few words, and his status in the village was improved.
Han Qingshi went to Uncle Yang's house with pork and lamb legs. Yang Nian was chopping wood in the yard. Now the Yang family was different. All the bundles that Joan received have been sent to Yang's family, and the days are getting better and better.
Putting down the pork leg and lamb leg, Han Qingshi didn't stay long, and went to Yang Datie's house with a catty of pork.
The stupid self in my mind is still very clear, working stupidly, getting the brown rice pancakes, reluctant to eat them, and bringing them to Fu Lang in his arms.Today is not what it used to be, Han Qingshi's mind is clear, and when he looks at the Yang family, let's not talk about what he thinks in his heart, that is, the life of the Yang family now is definitely not as good as his own.
"Is anyone home?" Han Qingshi pushed open the door, the yard was deserted, and it didn't look like it was about to celebrate the New Year at all.
After a while, the door of the West Room opened with a creak, and Yang Liuer poked her head out to take a look, "Brother Han."
"Are you at home alone?" Li Chunhua and Yang Datie were not seen, and Han Qingshi did not enter the yard, but stood at the gate, "Come here and take the meat back."
After going back and putting on the cotton coat, Yang Liu'er came out, picked up the pork, sniffed and told about the family affairs.
It turned out that it was a holiday the day before yesterday afternoon, and Yang Liuer ran home with her wages and red envelopes, while Li Chunhua was yelling at home, saying that there was no money for Chinese New Year, and the family couldn't even afford to cut a piece of meat.In the past six months, Li Chunhua saved some money and sent it to her natal family, hoping to find out about Yang Dalang.
I heard the news that Yang Dalang is doing well, but Li Chunhua has lost all his money.
This year is still to be passed, so Yang Liu'er had to take out her red envelope, which contained a lot of money, so it was enough to celebrate the new year tightly.Li Chunhua stopped cursing after receiving the money, and began to cut meat and buy things for the New Year.
Everything was fine, but yesterday afternoon, a group of men in official uniforms carried a man to Yang Datie's house, put him down, left 20 taels of silver and a contract, and left.
This man was Yang Dalang, and it was his misfortune. The Chinese New Year was approaching, and the quarry was on holiday, and the men all lived together, so they naturally celebrated the New Year together, but the quarry also had to be on duty.The quarry was very windy, and Yang Dalang hid in the crevices of the rocks to avoid the wind. When a landslide happened, one of his legs was crushed by the rocks.
The injured man can no longer work, the contract is automatically voided, and the yamen will pay 20 taels of silver. As for Yang Dalang's salary for the past six months, it is the travel expenses for sending him back.
The man came back, but his leg was broken, and he didn't deal with it. Yang Dalang passed out, and Li Chunhua went crazy at that time. That afternoon, he borrowed a bullock cart and Yang Datie and took Yang Dalang to the town to find a doctor. None came back.
After listening to what Yang Liuer said, Han Qingshi was silent for a moment, and said: "If you don't come back for the New Year, come to my place for the New Year."
"En." Yang Liu'er nodded.
Han Qingshi stopped by to have a look at his own greenhouse, comforted the man on duty, and finally returned home and told Yang Qiong about Yang Dalang.
"The matter of the quarry was caused by Shi Jinhua. At first Li Chunhua wanted you to go, haha." Yang Qiong sneered, and said nothing after that.
