The next morning, the rain stopped, but the roads in the village were muddy. Cheng Yue walked around the door and then turned back.
During breakfast, Cheng Shun and Jiang asked Cheng Yue what furniture she wanted and what Shanshui needed. They would buy them all. After a while, Cheng Shun would go to ask his old friend Dagen.
Li Dagen's family is engaged in carpentry work. Three of his five sons can do it, and only the youngest one can't, so their family conditions are pretty good.
Li Dagen can be said to have been a friend of Cheng Shun since childhood.
"Furniture! Dad, I'll go with you to Uncle Dagen's house later. I can talk to him myself, okay?"
Cheng Yue's eyes lit up and he suddenly had an idea.
"That's fine. You can draw, so maybe you can draw something new for your Uncle Da Gen. Just remember, you have to pay him when the time comes. Don't let him take advantage of you for nothing!"
Cheng Shun rolled his eyes and said.
"Oh my, I don't know how Da Gen got such an old friend like you! He has to ask for money just to draw a blueprint? Why didn't he ask you for money when you asked him to make something for you?"
Jiang couldn't help but sneer.
"You know shit! Our Fatty is smart. She drew some patterns for the old lady, and the old lady said they would definitely make money! Is this the same as what Dagen usually makes for me?"
Cheng Shun rolled his eyes at Jiang.
"Yes, yes, it's not like Dagen's family doesn't know you're stingy. If you want to ask for money, ask for it yourself. Don't let Pangya embarrass that person. What if Dagen doesn't want Pangya's painting?"
Jiang replied.
"Dad, let's eat! Let's go after we eat!"
Before Cheng Shun was about to speak, Cheng Yue spoke quickly, otherwise her parents would have to talk for a long time at the dinner table.
After breakfast, the father and daughter put on straw raincoats and carried bamboo hats and went to Li's house.
"Fatty, don't listen to your mother. You have to pay what you owe. Do you understand?"
On the way, Cheng Shun did not forget to instruct Cheng Yue.
"Dad, I know. I will definitely accept the money. Even brothers have to settle accounts clearly. I like money so much, don't worry!"
Cheng Yue assured.
"That's more like it. What my daughter comes up with must be extraordinary. I can't give it away for free. Don't we have to pay for furniture making at home?"
Cheng Shun was very satisfied with his daughter's answer.
"Hey, Grandpa Shunzi, Aunt Ayue!"
As soon as I entered the door, I saw Li Dagen's granddaughter Li Xiulan holding a wooden basin and about to feed the chickens.
"Xiu Lan, is your grandpa here? He must be here!"
Cheng Shun asked.
"No! Grandpa, Grandpa Shunzi is here!"
After Li Xiulan finished speaking, she shouted into the house.
Cheng Yue began to look at the Li family.
She had been here for so long, but had never been to the Li family. She only knew that this big yard belonged to the Li family when she was running.
The yard is very big, more than twice as big as Cheng's. The layout is similar to that of Cheng's, except that there is no vegetable patch in the yard. Instead, there are many wooden sticks covered with something, probably to keep out the rain.
In another corner, there is a large hut without a door, filled with various boxes and cabinets. These were made by the Li family and prepared to be sold.
The Li family's area is twice as large as the Cheng family's, not because they have more children and grandchildren than the Cheng family, but because half of their house is used to store things made by the men in the family.
Cheng Yue had a plan in mind. After thinking about it so much along the way, she almost knew what to say.
