With a Door In Mind

v1 Chapter 16: , to finalize the house

Jiang Dingzhong's actions are very neat

In three or two strokes, a rabbit was dealt with. Apparently this has been done before.

After Jiang Dingzhong came in, he said to him, "You keep this rabbit skin, it can be used in winter."

Jiang Xiaochuan thought about it for a while, but he didn't know how to make nitrates, so he shook his head and said, "Forget it, I won't do it either, you keep it."

Jiang Dingzhong thought about it for a while, then put away the rabbit fur, intending to give it to them after tanning.

"Okay, then I'll keep it for you."

Then he went into the kitchen.

Soon there was a burst of aroma, and the three little boys who provoked them ran to the kitchen one after another.

Finally, in the anxious anticipation of several dolls,

The dish was finally cooked.

There was a large pot of braised rabbit meat mixed with some potato wedges.

Jiang Dingzhong greeted the two of them to sit at the table together.

Jiang Xiaochuan found that there were only his brother and Jiang Dingzhong on the table. So he asked, "Uncle Jiang, where are Aunt Jiang and the others? Why don't you come to dinner?"

Jiang Dingzhong said casually, "Oh, they can eat in the kitchen."

Jiang Xiaochuan is not clear, there are quite a lot of rules in the countryside in this era.

Usually, it doesn't matter. When there are guests at home, women and children don't come to the table. I don't know if they are afraid of eating too much and the guests will not eat, or other reasons.

Although Jiang Xiaochuan and Jiang Xiaohe are children, Jiang Dingzhong cannot neglect them just because they are children.

But Jiang Xiaochuan, a later generation, could not understand this kind of behavior.

"Xiao Chuan, what are you doing, sit down to eat..."

Jiang Xiaochuan put down the chopsticks in his hand, ignoring Jiang Dingzhong's cry behind him, and walked to the kitchen.

After entering, she saw Wang Cuihua and her two children preparing to eat.

The dishes were only a quarter of what was on the table outside.

There are not many pieces of rabbit meat in the bowl of rabbit meat, most of which are potatoes.

Without saying a word, he picked up the rabbit meat on the table with one hand and held Lan Lan with the other.

He said to Wang Cuihua, who was at a loss, "Aunt Cuihua, take the iron eggs to the main room to eat together."

After speaking, she dragged Jiang Lanlan back to the main room.

The reason why he dragged Lan Lan was because he was afraid that Aunt Cuihua would stay because the woman would not come to the table.

Followed out, Wang Cuihua glanced at Jiang Dingzhong in confusion.

Jiang Xiaochuan ignored them, put the vegetables into the big pot, put a piece of rabbit meat for Lan Lan, and said to her, "Come... eat meat..."

But Jiang Lanlan didn't move the chopsticks, but looked at her father.

Seeing their actions, Jiang Xiaochuan said angrily to Jiang Dingzhong, "Uncle Jiang, it's a new society now, where are there so many rules? You're too masculine, aren't you?"

When Jiang Dingzhong heard what he said, he stopped being polite and said to his daughter-in-law with a smile, "Okay, let's eat together."

One pot of rabbit stewed potatoes, one portion of scrambled eggs with chives, one portion of dried vegetables, and one portion of beans.

The rice is just corn and sweet potato porridge, but it is very thick. Don't underestimate this, it is estimated that it is a family's ration for a few days.

It can be said that the year is similar to this. And not so much oil and water.

Usually when people cook, they use chopsticks dipped in oil and tap a few times at the bottom of the pot.

Seeing that today's dishes were good, I took out the white wine that I treasured, and said it was a treasured wine, but it was actually bulk grain wine, and it was packed in a salt water bottle.

Watching Jiang Dingzhong take three small sips, enjoy it for a while, and put the bottle back.

It seems that he is reluctant to drink.

Yes, now there is not enough food to eat, how can there be any food to make wine. It is estimated that only the city will get wine and food, but it will not be much.

A meal is fragrant. I have eaten all the meat. I can't help it. I look at the vegetables, but I can't stand a few half-sized children.

Haven't you heard of it? Half the size, eat the poor old man.

After eating, Jiang Dingzhong hiccupped and said embarrassedly, "I'm so sorry, I planned to leave some for you to take back."

In fact, during the eating process, he was going to put some in a bowl, but Jiang Xiaochuan refused.

Jiang Xiaochuan said politely, "Uncle Jiang, don't be polite. Actually, I have something to do with you today."

When Jiang Dingzhong heard his words, his heart skipped a beat, this meal was not delicious. Don't make any excessive demands.

But he quickly recovered his expression and said with a smile, "Whatever you want to say, as long as I can help, I will definitely help you."

The potential meaning is that if you can't help you, there's nothing you can do.

Jiang Xiaochuan still didn't know what he meant, he didn't care, he said, "That's it, Uncle Jiang, I'm building a house, I hope you can help me."

When Jiang Dingzhong heard it turned out to be the case, he immediately breathed a sigh of relief, "It's all a small matter. I'll help you when the time comes, but I can't help all the time. I still have to do in the village."

Knowing that he had misunderstood, Jiang Xiaochuan thought he was asking him to help with the work, and explained, "Uncle Jiang, what I mean is, I will give you the money, you can help me with it when the time comes."

Hearing his words, Jiang Dingzhong hesitated for a while, "This... this is not appropriate, Jiang Dahai can't make sense." He didn't want people to feel that he was making money from it.

"Uncle Jiang, there's nothing wrong with it, I've already split it up anyway. Look, buy bricks, buy wood, and ask the villagers for help. How can you come forward? Jiang Dahai still doesn't have to find you. And you know, I The relationship with the Jiang family. At the beginning, I couldn't find anyone, but now that you are here, why should I look for him?"

When Jiang Dazhong heard this, he thought for a while, and it was indeed the truth. Feeling that there was nothing wrong, he agreed, "Alright, so what do you want to do?"

Jiang Xiaochuan thought about it for a while, "Uncle, do you think this will work? You can tell me how much bricks and wood cost when the time comes. How much is suitable for labor?"

Jiang Dachuan immediately shook his head when he heard it, "No, the villagers help, there is no reason to take money, you can't start this, or who will build the house in the future? You will not be hated by others... But one day You must be responsible for the two meals."

When Jiang Xiaochuan heard his words~lightnovelpub.net~, he sighed in his heart that labor was really cheap at this time, two meals were enough, and he couldn't even give money.

"That's fine, Uncle Jiang, you will determine the foundation tomorrow. You can find who and how many. As for the food..." Having said this, he thought for a while and said, "Uncle Jiang, I will buy it from the village. it's OK?"

Every year, when the food is collected and handed over to the public, the village will keep some food as emergency food. Now that the autumn harvest is approaching, it should be no problem to buy some.

But Jiang Dingzhong glanced at him and said, "No, the food in the village can't be moved."

Jiang Xiaochuan asked curiously, "Why? The autumn harvest will not come soon. Although everyone can't get enough food, it shouldn't be a problem to survive until the autumn harvest, right?"

Jiang Dingzhong said complicatedly, "Don't ask the reason, it just won't work anyway. You have to solve the food yourself."

Seeing his expression, Jiang Xiaochuan paused in his heart, thinking of something, it is estimated that the big cafeteria has been decided. Just don't know what day.

He pondered for a while and said, "That's fine, I'll solve the food problem. But it will take a day or two, and then I will trouble Aunt Cuihua to help with cooking."

Seeing his agreement, Jiang Dingzhong said with a smile, "That's no problem. You can get some food when the bricks and woods come over. Your aunt is fine at home anyway. I'll leave the cooking to her."

As for why he didn't let his mother come over, it was because he was afraid of a son from Jiang Dahai's family.

The matter of the house was basically settled, and Jiang Xiaochuan took his younger brother back.

When I left, I borrowed a lantern and a wooden basin to go back. After all, there was nothing in the house.
