Most of the bungalows in Northeast China are of the same layout.
It's like two squares put together, one square is the main room of the house.
The other square is half the cabin and the other half the kitchen.
Seeing that the main frame of the house had been completed and the firecrackers on the beams had been set off, Lu Xinghe took He Xiaoyu and prepared to go to Danjiang City for a large purchase.
Since it is intended to be a wedding room, the furniture must be fully furnished.
Three turns and one sound, thirty-six legs, including the betrothal gift for He Xiaoyu, Lu Xinghe planned to provide all of them without missing a single one.
The three turns and one ring are the same all over the country, but the thirty-six legs are calculated slightly differently because most people in Northeast China live on earthen kangs.
However, the necessary furniture is absolutely indispensable.
Some need to be purchased, but simple ones like kang tables and wooden stools can be made by carpenters in the village.
Made of pure solid wood, with mortise and tenon structure.
The furniture made in this way is much sturdier than the furniture made of planed boards in later generations.
It won’t be a problem for the next thirty to fifty years.
As for pots, pans, and utensils, you need to buy them in the city.
As soon as the blacksmith Yan Laosan heard that Lu Xinghe was going to build a house, he started preparing iron pots and iron sheets for the stove.
Even a few extra buckets were prepared for Lu Xinghe.
In Lu Xinghe's memory, it's no wonder that Yan Laosan in his previous life waited until after the reform and opening up.
He is considered to have the best development among ordinary people.
This is considering the customer's side, preparing for the future, and accurately targeting Lu Xinghe's needs.
As Lu Xinghe and He Xiaoyu continued to calculate, they both felt overwhelmed.
There were too many things to buy, and the two of them were really stingy.
The money feels warm in my hand, but I feel a little painful when I want to take it out.
"Honey, why don't we move these old furniture over here and make do with them.
We still have five bowls at home. The plates can be cleaned after being soaked in alkali. I will buy you a bicycle, which will be more convenient for you to use on a daily basis.
I'll buy you a watch, too. It'll make you look good when you wear it out. I won't buy the rest.
I don't need anything. ”
He Xiaoyu crossed out the rest from the paper.
Then he said to Lu Xinghe, "As for the betrothal money, let's not worry about it. The money is all with me, isn't it just like transferring money from one hand to the other?"
Lu Xinghe looked at He Xiaoyu who was serious.
His expression was slightly dazed.
Given his past life experiences, it was hard for him to imagine that a woman would think this way.
No one wants to wait until the era when marriage requires the man’s family to use up their life savings.
Around the millennium, even men would hand over all their money.
That woman will find ways to get gifts and money from the man's pocket in various ways.
How can there be such a woman who doesn’t think about herself and only wants to make her man look good?
Even if they do exist, they are as rare as the giant pandas in the zoo.
"It's great to have you, but my wife must have everything that others have, and even more!"
Lu Xinghe made the decision, and He Xiaoyu never said no.
The two discussed the basic needs of the family, and then asked Lu Xinglin and He Xiaoxue who were playing with the children on the ground.
Perhaps because of Lu Xinglin's influence, the two of them surprisingly wanted to buy books.
This made He Xiaoyu happy for a long time.
Take out the money that is not saved at home from the cabinet where the quilts are stored.
He Xiaoyu also got some advance from Li Chunhua for the money needed for the head job and daily auditing.
Thinking of buying some gifts for Lu's mother in the city.
The next morning, before daybreak, wisps of blue smoke began to emerge from the chimneys in the village.
Lu Xinghe took He Xiaoyu, wrapped in a quilt, and boarded a ox cart to the county town.
There are too many things to buy. If we take the bus from the forest farm to Linhai County and then drive back to Danjiang City, it will be almost noon.
There is no time to choose things.
So we had to set off early and catch the first bus directly to the county town.
In addition to the two people, there were also a few rabbits that Lu Xinghe had caught while going up and down the mountain in the past few days.
If he had time, he would also like to send some to Mr. Cao to try.
Interpersonal relationships and exchanges depend on constant contact and consideration.
If Lu Xinghe never pays attention to Mr. Cao, their relationship will gradually fade.
With the experience of touching the old yellow cow's hide swallow last time, the old yellow cow ran very fast in Dong County this time.
As long as it means slowing down.
Lu Xinghe's hand would quietly touch the floor.
He Xiaoyu laughed out loud. In the early morning mountains, the tall pine trees were looming under the hazy mist.
The cool air was incredibly refreshing, and the occasional squirrel jumping around on the ox cart brought a different kind of joy to the two people's moods.
He Xiaoyu watched the sunlight becoming more and more dazzling.
Only then did I feel the beauty of Northeast China in winter.
After she completely relaxed and lived a good life, she found that everything around her was the best arrangement.
Soon, just when the old ox could no longer run, they finally arrived at the county town.
"Let's have breakfast first. The earliest bus hasn't arrived yet."
He Xiaoyu seldom went to the county town. He was an educated youth before, and was also a member of the "five black categories".
The brigade would never give her a letter of introduction.
Unlike now, she was more familiar with the brigade office than Lu Xinghe.
She was the one who issued most of the letters of introduction in the entire village.
Therefore, as long as you leave the team, you must listen to Lu Xinghe's arrangements.
After breakfast, an empty bus stopped not far from them.
Without saying a word, Lu Xinghe carried the sack, held the snakeskin bag in his mouth, and took He Xiaoyu's hand.
No matter how much stuff Lu Xinghe carried with him, he and He Xiaoyu never let go of each other's hands as long as they went out.
He Xiaoyu squeezed through the crowd and grabbed a seat on the bus.
Lu Xinghe put the things in the trunk of the bus.
"Big sister, we don't like occupying seats here. If there's no one here, I'll sit down."
Just after He Xiaoyu chose a seat by the window and sat down.
A scoundrel-looking young man with long hair was whistling with a squinting expression on his face.
“There are people here.”
He Xiaoyu leaned towards the window and said something in a low voice.
"Someone? Isn't that me? Where did you come from, big sister? Come with me and stroll around like the Eight Women Jumping into the River."
The long-haired young man sat down on the seat. Fortunately, there were many people in the car, so he didn't dare to make any direct moves.
Nowadays, even if street urchins flirt with women, it wouldn't be so obvious.
But when he saw He Xiaoyu, he really couldn't help it.
This woman is so beautiful, even more beautiful than the worker in the cotton mill.
Especially because they were going to the market that day, He Xiaoyu wore a red hat and licked the red paper on her lips.
The thick snow cream on her face was mostly blown away by the wind on the ox cart.
At this moment, He Xiaoyu's little face was reflecting crystal clear light under the sunlight.
"Can I take a walk with you?"
The long-haired young man had just warmed up his seat.
A pair of big hands lifted him up.
Lu Xinghe had a half-smile on his face, and he was just pretending to be something.
He Xiaoyu was targeted, and it turned out that beauty is indeed a disaster.
But he wasn't surprised.
Who made He Xiaoyu more beautiful than the stars of later generations?
