Jiang Mengxue sat on the side and told Gu Benchang everything one by one. Gu Benchang took a charcoal pencil and a piece of wood and recorded it according to his own method.
It took me half an hour to finish it.
"Uncle, how long will it take you to finish it? We can take our time with the drying rack in the yard, but we need to finish the tables and shelves in the house first."
Gu Benchang, with a big pipe in his mouth, looked at his records and nodded.
"No problem, I'll definitely be able to make it within half a month. I'll send it to you directly when it's done."
Now that the furniture is in place, the next step is cleaning.
Jiang Yixue sprinkled water on the dust in the house and cleaned it up.
The walls and ceiling are all covered with old newspapers to prevent dust from falling down frequently.
This is a very time-consuming and labor-intensive project.
Jiang Mengxue and Li Cuiying were at the bottom, while Gu Zhenjiang was at the top, standing on a stool or ladder.
It took me three or four days of hard work to finish everything.
Next, we just have to wait for the furniture to be brought in so that everyone can have a good rest at home for a few days.
Jiang Mengxue planned to go back to the Taoyuan Brigade. She had been back for several days and had not told the Jiang family that she was going to stay in the Feiyue Brigade.
It will be convenient to inform her if anything happens in the future.
In addition to Jiang Mengxue's two bicycles at home, Gu Zhenjiang also has one. Now there are three bicycles in his family alone.
Fortunately, everyone is staying at home now, otherwise it would really attract attention.
Jiang Mengxue pushed the bike out after the sun came out in the morning.
She didn't dare to ride a bike in the current road conditions, not to mention her current physical condition.
Although the distance was not far, it still took Jiang Mengxue more than an hour, almost two hours, to walk there.
When we arrived at Taoyuan Brigade, it was almost noon. Since it was not the busy farming season, many families only had two meals a day.
So now it’s past lunchtime, but it’s not lunchtime yet.
The Jiang family's children have all gone out to play and haven't come back yet.
There was no one in the yard. Everyone was chatting and working on the kang in the house, doing some small handicrafts, mending clothes, sewing soles, anyway, they were busy at home all day.
When Jiang Mengxue lifted the curtain and entered the room, no one reacted or turned around.
After all, no one expected Jiang Mengxue to come home at this time.
"Second sister? Why are you here now? Did you come here by yourself?" It was Jiang's wife who reacted quickly. She put down the things in her hands, put on her shoes, got off the kang, tidied up the kang, and went to sit on it to welcome Jiang Mengxue.
Only Jiang's mother and several of Jiang's sisters-in-law were on the kang. Jiang's father, several sons, and children were not at home.
"My dad and brother aren't home? I haven't even started school yet, what are they doing out now?"
"What else can we do? The kids are out playing. They can't stay home. They just have to run out. Your dad and your brother are going up the mountain to check the traps. Then we'll go to the running stream. It would be great if we can catch a couple of fish."
After saying this, Jiang's mother looked puzzled, not understanding why her daughter had time to come back now.
"You and that guy are back from your in-laws' place? Shouldn't you be at work by now?"
Jiang's mother had no idea that Jiang Mengxue had changed jobs, and she had never told her about it before.
Jiang Mengxue had never thought about how to tell her family about this matter.
The Jiang family is different from the Gu family. As long as Jiang Mengxue is willing, even if she doesn't want to work and quits her job to stay at home, the Gu family will be happy and will not be unhappy.
But the Jiang family is different. Jiang Mengxue has been studying since she was a child in order to make a name for herself one day and have a respectable job in the city when she grows up.
It can be said that everyone in the Jiang family has high hopes for her. As the most promising one in the family, she has always been the target of the Jiang family's bragging.
It can be said that in the entire Taoyuan Brigade, who is not proud that there is a college student in the team?
If people knew that she gave up her respectable job in a city hospital and returned to the countryside, who knows what the outside world would say.
So Jiang Mengxue has been struggling with how to tell her family.
Because even if she doesn't say it now, everyone will know it after a while.
There are quite a few weddings and funerals between the Feiyue Brigade and the Taoyuan Brigade, and the families on both sides will find out soon.
Jiang Mengxue is still a fairy, so just tell the truth.
After preparing a speech in his mind, he said, "Mom, sisters-in-law, please calm down and listen to me.
I came back from my in-laws' place a few days ago. I had applied to the hospital for permission to go to the countryside before the New Year, and it was approved after I came back.
I packed up my things and came back with my second uncle and aunt some time ago.
The team has also prepared the clinic. I have been cleaning there for the past few days. Once all the furniture is ready, we can move our things in. Then we can go and pick up the medicine that was approved by the higher authorities."
It wasn't that Jiang Mengxue told everything in one breath, without considering that the other people in the Jiang family couldn't digest her words at all for a while.
Jiang's mother and several of her dearest daughters-in-law were stunned after hearing what was said and could not believe it was true.
Jiang's mother's eyes widened. "What did you say? You went back to the countryside?"
Mrs. Jiang was also a little unbelievable and quickly ran to sit down opposite Jiang Mengxue.
"Second sister, what are you doing? How can you just quit a good job?"
"That's right, can we talk to the leader about this before going back?"
Jiang Ersao was also very anxious. The family finally had a promising sister-in-law.
I was thinking that as an aunt I could help out when the children grow up, but what can I do now?
Mrs. Jiang San didn't say anything. She sat on the kang, sewing the soles of her shoes and didn't join in.
Jiang Mengxue was also a little helpless, as her ideas were completely different from theirs.
It's difficult to get them to understand and support.
"I've thought this through. I'm just being transferred to the countryside temporarily. If I want to go back later, I can just submit an application. It's not like I can't go back.
I just think it would be better in the countryside during this time.”
Jiang's mother had no idea what was going on in her daughter's mind.
I was so worried that I planned to wait for Jiang Youfu to come back and let him talk about his daughter.
Jiang's mother sighed. "What good can this do? Can the rural team pay you a salary? It's hard to support yourself with just a few work points a day."
Have you told your son-in-law about this? You didn't make this decision on your own, did you?
This couple doesn't live like this. They have to discuss everything before doing anything.
My son-in-law, my uncle, and my aunt are all at home. They are all knowledgeable. If you don't understand something, go ask them."
Jiang's mother was afraid that her daughter was too young and might not be thoughtful enough.
The second uncle and the second aunt have lived together all year round, which is no different from the parents-in-law.
The interpersonal relationships in the Gu family are relatively simple. The only relatives at home are the cousins from my uncle's family, but we don't have much contact with them in the city.
