Chapter 583 Learning to be a carpenter



After taking the chive pancake from Xiuhua's bowl, Wang Guihua invited Xiuhua to come inside and play, but Xiuhua waved and skipped away, running quickly back home.

She shook her head with amusement. Although Xiuhua would be 15 after the New Year.

But judging from his current temperament, he's still a child.

"Honey, why are you accepting things from the Fu family again?"

Zhao Dazhu frowned as he looked at the bowl of oily chive pancakes.

After giving all their grain to Gao Dani, the family faced difficulties in getting enough to eat.

However, by replacing all refined grains with whole grains, the family will at least not go hungry.

For the past month or so, their family has relied entirely on Ning Jing's suggestion to raise chickens and ducks, and they have indeed raised a few.

After selling off the excess chickens, the family raised chickens on a per-person basis, and now they can lay one chicken every day.

In just a few days, you can gather two pounds of eggs and use them to exchange for some coarse grains.

However, if you want to eat well, that's definitely not possible.

Last time, the Fu family sent over some green rice dumplings, and coincidentally, on the same day, Guihua's family sent over some elm seed-based flatbreads.

But compared to the Fu family's, once you taste it, the difference in quality becomes immediately clear.

When Ning Jing makes food, she uses a lot of seasonings; before, you could only taste them after biting into the green rice dumplings.

But this time, the chive pancakes that were delivered looked so oily that you could tell just by looking at them.

Even a grown man like Zhao Dazhu felt heartbroken.

Wang Guihua knew exactly what her husband was thinking, but she could tell that Fu Hongxing couldn't bear to say a single word against Ning Jing.

If she wanted, she'd probably pluck the stars from the sky for her.

Moreover, the Fu family's children had previously incurred significant financial losses.

Now that Fu Hongxing, as the eldest brother, has the ability, it's perfectly normal for Ning Jing to cook some delicious, nutritious food to help the children recover their health.

Haven't you noticed how much taller Xiuhua and the other children have grown in just one year?

When Xiuhua brought the chive pancakes over, didn't she ever consider refusing them?

However, when she thought of Genshu, Genmu, and Gendi, and looked at the oily chive pancakes, she couldn't bring herself to refuse.

"Alright, I know what you're thinking."

We can return it later when things are better off at home.

As for the rest, there's no need to say anything more.

Zhao Dazhu sighed inwardly after hearing his wife's words.

After calling all the children over, Zhao Dazhu first had them sit down.

Seeing the children enjoying the delicious chive pancakes, and then noticing that there were even eggs mixed in with them, he felt a pang of sadness.

It's also because he's a useless father; he raises so many chickens, yet he can't even afford to feed his children a single egg.

After the children finished eating, Zhao Dazhu did not let them leave immediately.

Instead, she hesitated for a moment before looking up at her eldest son and saying, "Genlin, I've spoken with your maternal family. They want you to learn carpentry. Are you willing?"

Zhao Genlin had been thinking that his father hadn't let them leave because he had something to say.

Hearing this, he was taken aback at first.

After all, when it comes to this family, he and his father are the only two truly strong laborers.

Becoming someone's apprentice is not as simple as it seems.

How could a skilled craftsman teach you, his apprentice, for nothing, while the master starves to death?

After working like a slave at the master's house for at least three years, the master will finally offer some guidance.
