When Zhang saw him waving the silver around, she snatched it away when he was not paying attention and put it in her pocket, then she lowered her head and smiled.
It was the first time that Da He saw Zhang so lively outside. He laughed, "I'm afraid Chun Xiao has led my wife astray. She used to be so honest, but now she dares to snatch my money in front of her parents-in-law."
Tian and the other children laughed at the side, "My sister-in-law just can't stand you waving around money."
"Second brother, this person is not an ox. How can we work every day? We need to take a few days off. We can never earn enough money."
"Only you have the confidence to say that. I wouldn't dare to say that. This charcoal is only sold in winter. No one will buy it in the summer even if it's cheap."
"Dahe is right. You can only feel at ease when the money is in your own pocket."
"There's so much land now, and the days of springtime being so busy that you'll cry are there."
"I cry with a smile."
"Dad, why are you crying when you're smiling?" Pan'er climbed onto her father's lap and asked him to hold her.
Da He pinched her face and said, "It's like this. I pinch you until you cry, then give you a candy, and you will cry with laughter."
Everyone was warming themselves around the charcoal stove. It was snowing, and there was no need to worry about people going to the end of the village, so Chunxiao stayed there in the afternoon.
On the second day, the snow fell even heavier, and the ground gradually turned white. Burning charcoal to make wet mud was a very painful job, mainly because her hands were cold. So Zhou brought the stove to the back so that she could warm herself by the fire while working.
"Next time I buy two more tanks and put them in the front yard so that it will be convenient for watering the land in the future."
"Mom, this is a good idea. Not only should we buy a few more vats, but we should also get a few more buckets. Didn't Dad say we should also make an extra crib?"
"I told you a few days ago, but I'm afraid they've already made it, and it's not convenient to go get it in this weather."
"Then when the weather clears up, I'll go to town and buy two quilts and some cloth."
"Why spend that money? We still have some cloth left. If your father comes to stay here, he can just bring our quilt over."
"It's so troublesome to carry it around. Look at how big the bed Dad made. The mattress won't cost much. I'll pay for a new one."
"You're getting more and more arrogant. How many buckets do you want so I can talk to your father?"
Chunxiao calculated in his mind that it wouldn't break if there were too many buckets, so it wouldn't hurt to have a few more. "Let's make seven or eight, and also a big bathtub. How much does it cost?"
"Your fifth uncle won't say anything, don't worry."
"In that case, let's get another long table and a chair. My room doesn't have one, so it's really inconvenient. Mom, wouldn't that be too much?"
"As long as you give him money, the more he gets, the happier he'll be. There's not much work to do in winter anyway."
