Chapter 326 Everyone Must Follow
Even if Jiang Xia wanted to go out to sea, Zhou Chenglei would not let him.
Besides, there are priorities, and Jiang Xia is not someone who doesn't know the priorities, so she shook her head: "I won't go out. I don't know about A Lei. I haven't asked him yet. But he shouldn't go out either. Aren't we going to dismantle the shed fence tomorrow?"
Moreover, the interior decoration is about to start, so Zhou Chenglei should arrange the decoration before going out to sea.
Interior decoration is the most troublesome. After plastering, you have to scrape the whitewash and then install water and electricity.
In decorations of this era, water pipes and electrical wires are not hidden under walls and floor tiles.
Of course you can hide if you dare.
Jiangxia doesn't dare to do that, because the current water pipes are still made of iron pipes. Although they can be used for twenty or thirty years, such old pipes are prone to rust and burst.
After thinking about it, I decided to give it up to avoid the trouble of repairing or replacing it later.
The house may be renovated again in the future, and the calculation will be made later.
Moreover, Jiang Xia was planning to replace the water pipes with plastic ones if they were available when the village had running water.
I don’t know when the village had running water.
When Tian Caihua heard this, she felt it was a pity that they would not go out to sea, but she also knew that the house was a big deal.
Zhou Chenglei saw Jiang Xia peeling sweet potatoes in the yard from the shed.
Half an hour later, he climbed down from the shelf, returned to the yard, and came to Jiang Xia: "Where did you put the phone book? Help me find it? I'll call the plumber."
How could Zhou Chenglei not know where the phone book was? Jiang Xia knew that he was reminding her to stop working and go back to her room to rest, so she stood up and washed her hands: "I'll find it for you."
With strength in numbers, we have almost finished peeling the potatoes, with only a few left in the basin.
Zhou Chenglei took Jiang Xia back to the room to rest and came out soon.
After all the sweet potatoes were peeled, Li Xiuxian washed her hands and planned to go back to her room to rest, but Tian Caihua said, "Second sister-in-law, you can cook dinner tonight! I'll go back to dry the sweet potatoes. And remember to harvest the rice and beans before the sun goes down."
Li Xiuxian: “…”
How could she cook dinner for so many people by herself? And she had to harvest rice and beans!
Tian Caihua didn't care whether she could finish the work or not. She called Zhou Chenglei and said, "Alei, help me move these pots of sweet potatoes onto the cart and take them back to my place to dry them. There are two houses being built here, and it's very dusty."
The old house is no longer able to accommodate all kinds of beans, so the roof and the floor are filled with rice, peanuts, sesame seeds, soybeans, mung beans, black beans and other beans.
"A Guang, help your uncle carry it."
"No need." Zhou Chenglei walked over, picked up the large basin of peeled sweet potatoes on the ground and put it on the cart.
When Zhou Wenguang saw this, he also wanted to learn from his uncle and move a pot by himself, but he couldn't move it! Zhou Chenglei saw this and patted him on the shoulder: "Practice more."
How can a man carry a whole household if he doesn’t have much strength?
Then he moved another basin onto the cart.
The cart can only hold two large basins of sweet potatoes at most.
He didn't ask Tian Caihua why she didn't transport the sweet potatoes to the other house to cook them. This way, she wouldn't have to transport them back and forth so many times. She could transport the raw sweet potatoes in one trip.
Tian Caihua called all her sons back to help. Those large pots of sweet potatoes were enough to keep her busy until dark. Fortunately, she had many sons and they were all grown up and able to help.
It took three trips to transport the six large basins of sweet potatoes.
Li Xiuxian also prepared dinner.
There's no way, she's the only one available!
Zhou's mother went to the dock to pick up the goods.
Tian Caihua wants to dry sweet potatoes. To dry sweet potatoes, it is not enough to just boil and peel them. They also need to be cut into slices and dried.
Jiang Xia is destined to be a princess! Not to mention that she is pregnant now, even if she sleeps until noon and doesn't work, no one will say anything to her.
Whether she works or not, Tian Caihua will never find fault with her.
Moreover, Jiang Xia married a good husband. When he saw that she had done a little work, he immediately found an excuse to take her away.
Unlike Zhou Chengxin, he couldn't bear to see her idle and would ask her to work as soon as he came back.
Li Xiuxian called Zhou Zhou: "Zhou Zhou, wash the vegetables first!"
"good."
When Zhou Ying saw this, she said, "Mom, Zhou Zhou and I will take a shower together."
Li Xiuxian: "Don't wash it anymore. If there is something you can't read in English, go ask your aunt. We will go back tomorrow. Hurry up and learn more from your aunt."
Zhou Ying: "No, I'll learn after I finish washing."
She doesn't like learning English at all!
"Then come and help me light the fire!"
The weather is cold now and my daughter has never done any housework. If she gets her sleeves wet while washing vegetables and catches a cold, that would be troublesome.
Zhou Ying: "I don't want it, it will burn my hair!"
She used to think that making fire was fun, and she once made fire with her grandmother, and the flames from the stove burned off a little of her hair.
Zhou Zhou: "Second Aunt, let me do the cooking!"
Li Xiuxian had no choice; she simply couldn’t handle it all by herself.
6◇9◇Book◇Bar
I had no choice but to let Zhou Zhou light the fire and watch the rice in the pot.
She also had to climb onto the roof to collect beans, which Zhou Zhou couldn't do.
In the next two hours, Li Xiuxian was busy harvesting rice, peanuts, beans and other things, and also cooking. She was very tired!
*During dinner, Zhou's father discussed the house renovation with Zhou Chenglei: "You have to take some time to buy floor tiles and ceramic tiles."
Zhou Chenglei: "Go check it out in a few days."
The doctor suggested that Jiang Xia rest in bed for a week, and then take her to choose what she likes after a few days.
Father Zhou asked again: "Do you buy ready-made doors, wardrobes, desks, and furniture, or do you ask a carpenter to make them? If you ask a carpenter to make them, you have to arrange it in advance, and it will take a month to make them."
Jiang Xia: "Buy ready-made ones. I've already found some furniture in Suicheng."
As for furniture, Jiang Xia saw several sets that he liked while walking around the Guangzhou Trade Fair.
Li Xiuxian was surprised: "You bought it so quickly? Is it very cheap to buy it at the Guangzhou Trade Fair?"
Jiang Xia: "I haven't bought it yet, I just saw it and I will go to their factory to place an order in a few days."
She had taken a fancy to the sofas upstairs and downstairs, coffee tables, beds in all the rooms, wardrobes, and desks. She had originally planned to ask Zhou Chenglei to go and see if he liked them on the last day, and if so, order them.
As a result, something unexpected happened and I had to find time to go directly to the other party’s factory to place an order.
Li Xiuxian perked up instantly: "It would be cheaper to order from the factory, right? Are you planning to buy a sofa?"
Jiang Xia nodded: "Yes, but I don't know if it will be cheaper."
When she went to look at the furniture, she also helped the other party with translation and negotiated two big orders. The factory manager said that if she wanted to buy the furniture, he would give her the factory price.
But after all, it was just what was said at the time, and who knows if it still counts in the future.
"You can definitely save a lot of money if you buy from a factory. Ready-made furniture is expensive. For our house in town, I asked a carpenter to make two beds, a dining table and chairs, two wardrobes, one large and one small, a desk, and a bookcase. There weren't many things, but it cost more than 500 yuan. Carpenters are expensive!"
"When are you going to order furniture? I'll go with you. I want to buy a set of sofas for the living room."
Now there is not even a proper sofa or coffee table in the living room, only a low-legged octagonal table and a long bamboo chair.
It’s not as nice as the old house, it doesn’t match at all!
A teacher in her school bought a set of fabric sofas for home, which makes the room warm and comfortable!
She wants to buy one, too.
"Okay, let's go next Sunday!"
Tian Caihua also said after hearing this: "Then I'll go and take a look too!"
They all use sofas at home, and she doesn’t want to fall behind!
I must surpass Li Xiuxian.
Besides, if she doesn't go, what if Jiang Xia gives Li Xiuxian a set of sofas? Wouldn't that be a loss? She must go no matter what! Li Xiuxian: "We bought so many sets, it should be cheaper, right? We must bargain when the time comes!"
By the way, Jiang Xia is so rich, will he help them pay for the sofa? Sorry, it's late again! I guess it will be this late in the future.
