After Su Xia finished eating and cleaned up, all the work outside was done by the men, so she could only find work in the house.

I washed the garlic that I killed with salt yesterday several times and put it on the curtain to dry.

I looked around and there was nothing to do.

After returning to the bedroom, he took out the box where he kept his money. There were more than a hundred dollars in it, all of which were wages sent by Chen Jianguo.

The two coins I brought with me and the one I used to buy the ticket can only be placed in the space.

He then took out a bicycle ticket, 10 kilograms of meat tickets, 20 kilograms of grain tickets, and 45 industrial tickets, all of which he had exchanged with the ticket seller.

The side dishes are all in the box.

I counted out 200 yuan, 2 meat tickets, a bicycle ticket, and all the industrial tickets and put them in my pocket.

He ran to the backyard to find Chen Jianguo.

Looking at the sweaty man waving his hands beside the woodshed, um...

A little shy.

He coughed twice and looked at the man's curious eyes.

She gestured to the man to sit down and found a place to sit down herself.

Ahem…

"That person wants to discuss something with you?"

Chen Jianguo looked at his wife curiously. What was going on? Why was it so formal?

"Wife, tell me what you want, and I'll do it for you while I'm at home."

Su Xia saw that there were only one or two people fetching water.

Then he approached Chen Jianguo and took out all the ticket money in his pocket.

“Why don’t you take some time to go to the county town and exchange this.

In fact, I saved a lot of your salary, but I didn't want others to know, so I said I had no money after building the house and digging the well. ”

"Now you have an excuse to come here."

After listening to it, Chen Jianguo took it and looked at it...

Oh my god…

I looked at my wife. This is a lot.

Then he saw a bicycle ticket and looked at his wife in shock: "Wife, don't tell me you saved this."

Chen Jianguo knew how difficult it was to get tickets. He searched the entire base for the ticket for the watch he bought for his wife, and finally found it from his leader.

Su Xia saw that Chen Jianguo was doubting her, so she pinched his arm.

"What are you thinking about? I asked someone to exchange this for me. Don't ask who it was. I don't even know his name."

Chen Jianguo looked at his arrogant wife, thinking that this man was really brave.

"Wife, can we go to places like that less often? It's too dangerous."

"snort……

No, how was this house built?

If you don't go, how will your daughter eat meat?

If you don't go, what will we eat, what will you wear and what will you cover yourself with?

Just daydreaming."

Chen Jianguo didn't know what to say after hearing his wife's chatter. He really couldn't refute it because he had money, but the key was that he didn't have the tickets.

Why……

"Daughter-in-law, can you please stop going there? I'm worried about you!"

As he spoke, he held Su Xia's small hand and rubbed it with his own big hand.

Su Xia followed his lead, mainly because she needed his help.

"Look at this chicken, it's getting bigger day by day. It needs a bigger nest. It would also be better to build a pigpen so that we can raise one when we have the chance."

Chen Jianguo also found that the chickens needed a bigger nest.

"Okay, let's do this nest."

Seeing that the man did not object, Su Xia began to make further requests.

"We still lack a cellar. Our house was small at the time, so I was thinking about how to build the house and forgot about the cellar."

After hearing this, Chen Jianguo felt that this was necessary, otherwise it would be difficult to store the vegetables in the winter.

"Wife, if you have anything else to say, just tell me all at once. My vacation is only seven days long, and it's already the second day. I'd better get everything done while I'm here."

Su Xia was happy this time, because that was his attitude she wanted.

"This industrial ticket can be exchanged for cement. When the time comes, we can build chicken coops, pig pens, and cellars. As for the rest, you can help me apply cement on the areas in front and behind the entrance of our house.

This is much cleaner, and it is convenient for children to play in the afternoon. ”

Su Xia thought about it and there was nothing else to do.

The location in the middle of the toilet next to the demolished shed is just enough for a chicken coop and pigpen. When flowers are planted around it, there will be no odor.

My own toilet is now clean.

When the time comes, ask the team to come over and take the manure away, and you can exchange it for some work points.

Su Xia looked at the location and became more and more satisfied.

Chen Jianguo imagined Su Xia's idea and found it quite reasonable. He also found that his wife liked cleanliness and must be tidy.

Since we have the tickets, we might as well do it. Otherwise, looking at her attitude, if I don’t come back, she will find someone to get it for me.

It’s better to do it yourself.

"Okay, then I'll go and borrow the bullock cart from the captain and buy all the things in one go."

"Well, don't forget to buy the meat, and call your father, second brother, and third brother over when you are ready. With more people, we can finish the job in one day."

"You can buy the rest. I'll get you some money."

"With a bicycle, it will be convenient for me to go to the county town to collect your salary in the future."

What made Su Xia happiest was that she could take out her bicycle, even though she already had one in her own space, she still had to spend money and buy a ticket.

But there was no other way. At that time, the bicycle was an important asset and needed to be stamped at the police station. It would be difficult to take it out of thin air without a receipt.

Oh...it's so frustrating. I should have bought the tickets earlier.

Chen Jianguo looked at Su Xia, smiling and then serious, as if he was thinking about something.

But he does need a bicycle. His wife goes to the county town frequently and it takes two hours for her to walk. It’s heartbreaking to think about it.

"Don't worry, wife, I don't mind spending money, I may even give you a raise.

As long as I'm here, you can live your life however you want. ”

Su Xia looked at the man's promise to her, smiled and pinched his face.

This guy is a rare good man. Usually, a spendthrift like me would be beaten.

"Well, go ahead. Go early and come back early. There's not that much firewood to chop. We can burn the stove directly anyway, so it's not that short."

"Okay, I'll change my clothes and go out now."

Su Xia also followed him into the house and took out another 50 yuan. It is better to have more than nothing.

Chen Jianguo took it, put on his clothes and went out.

First, I went to the team leader to borrow a ox cart, and then followed Zhao Laoer to the county town.

Su Xia here began to divide the dried green garlic into two parts.

I found two jars weighing a few kilograms and poured the garlic into them.

Then pour in the sweet and sour water and soy sauce water that I made myself.

Seal the lid and store it in a cool place. It will take at least a month before you can eat it.

Su Xia was sweating after finishing her work, so she found a towel and wiped herself off.

I started preparing lunch so that I could eat when Chen Jianguo came back.

Su Xia was going to eat some white rice. She hadn't eaten it for a long time and she still liked rice.

I prepared the following: stir-fried shredded beans, stir-fried bacon with chili peppers, and finally, tomatoes mixed with sugar.

Just keep it simple.

There is only one egg left, and there are about two pounds of bacon.

Sure enough, it would be better for the head of this family to work in 늌.

This time when he came back, he was restricted in what he could do.

It was almost time when Su Xia was ready.

Niu Niu came back a long time ago and kept saying she was hungry.

"Mom, I'm hungry...

I’m so hungry…”

Seeing that the kid was indeed hungry, Su Xia let her eat first.

"Okay, you can eat first, and we'll eat together when your dad comes back."

Niu Niu thought about it and found that she couldn't wait.

"Mom, let me eat first. I'm really hungry..."

Su Xia served a bowl of rice and some of the dishes, and kept the rest warm in the pot.

Niu Niu couldn't wait any longer, so she picked up the bowl and chopsticks and started putting the food into her mouth.

Su Xia felt a little sorry for the kid and re-combed his messy hair.

"You too, are hungry? Come back and have some cookies and cakes. Didn't mom put them in the cupboard for you?"

Niu Niu was eating the delicious rice and her favorite meat, one bite at a time.

Listening to my mother's mumbling, I didn't have time to answer.

After eating, Niuniu patted her belly and complained to Su Xia with emotion: "Mom, your cooking is still the most delicious. I can't eat what Dad cooks.

Mom, please don’t sleep in tomorrow, okay? ”

Forehead……

Su Xia felt embarrassed after hearing what the kid said, even if she was thick-skinned.

"Okay, okay... I promise you, okay...

Go wash your hands and take a nap so you can grow taller. ”

Niu Niu felt relieved after hearing her mother's assurance.

She didn't want her father to cook anymore, because all the good things would be wasted.

Then I washed my hands and face and went back to the bedroom to sleep.

She really wants to grow as tall as her mother.
