Chapter 33 Comfortable
Others went hunting just like any other, carrying rabbits in bunches and pheasants in baskets, but he caught nothing all day.
Jiang Chunhe began to doubt whether the mountain he entered was the same mountain as the mountain others entered.
"Dad, it's not that I didn't try my best, it's just that it's really weird. I almost walked around the whole mountain, but I couldn't see a single living thing."
Jiang Chunhe defended himself, "I'm not afraid of being laughed at by my father. I didn't even see a bird flying. It's like I've been possessed by an evil spirit."
Hearing the words "encountered evil spirits", Zhang's eyelids twitched immediately, "Could it be that Chunhe was beaten up by that damn girl Jiang Mixia last time, and our Chunhe's luck was destroyed?"
"What nonsense are you talking about." Jiang Youcai curled his lips, "Can a beating really destroy her luck? Then what will happen to her third wife?"
Jiang Youcai didn't think that the third wife, whom he looked down upon, could have any ability.
"It's hard to say. Isn't it said that this thing is very mysterious? Look at Jiang Mixia, her dementia was cured. Isn't it very mysterious?"
The more Zhang spoke, the uglier her expression became. "Master, don't you think there is something unclean in the third branch of the family? Whoever gets involved will have a hard time."
Jiang Chunhe nodded like a millet pecking at rice, "Dad, I think Mom is right. It must be because of the third house. When have I ever gone into the mountains empty-handed?"
Anyway, it’s definitely not that his skills are not good enough.
Yes, I can't admit it.
Jiang Youcai thought for a while and waved his hand, "Forget it, be more careful when you go into the mountains next time. If you can't hunt anything in the next few days, don't go for now."
"The corn field has grown a layer of grass, and the cotton field needs to be tended. I am too busy at home to take care of it. I will help to finish the work in the field first."
Jiang Chunhe curled his lips, feeling extremely unhappy.
If you work in the fields in this kind of weather, you will get tanned into charcoal even if you don't get peeled off. How can you feel comfortable in the mountains?
There are shady places everywhere, mountain springs when you are thirsty, wild fruits when you are hungry, and you can rest for a while when you want to. You don’t have to be nagged all the time. When you bring home a catch, your family will treat you like a big shot.
If we can't hunt and work in the fields, we will have nothing.
Not only that, but if you work slowly you'll be criticized, if you do not work enough you'll also be criticized, you'll be busy all day but won't make any progress, and then people will complain that you don't make any money at home all day.
He did not want to give up hunting and work in the fields.
Besides, it wasn't his fault that he couldn't hunt anything.
But Jiang Chunhe was afraid of Jiang Youcai. Seeing that his father had said so, he did not dare to refute and could only nod, "Okay, I understand."
"Come on, stop talking so much. The child has been busy for most of the day and hasn't had any lunch yet. At least have a bite first." Zhang tried to smooth things over and took Jiang Chunhe to the kitchen to get some rice to eat.
Zhang had reserved a bowl of the thick dumpling soup made with corn flour and white flour at noon. She added some water to it and it started bubbling again.
"I think Dad still doesn't believe in the third wife's affairs." Jiang Chunhe slurped the dumpling soup with an embarrassed look on his face.
"Your father is the same. This is right in front of him. Why wouldn't he believe it?" Zhang pouted. "It's mainly because your father doesn't believe in ghosts and gods. It's normal for him not to believe in these things."
"It's okay, as long as mom believes you." Zhang comforted her son, but in her heart she became more and more annoyed with the third wife.
The days are long in summer, and the sun at noon is so strong that the whole earth seems to wilt.
Jiang Mixia's family was busy cleaning the house.
Clean up the old house and also clean up the new house.
Move all the things that you are used to and can still use temporarily from the old house to the new house, and also add some new things to the new house bit by bit.
Jiang Youcheng and Liu were used to being frugal, so they were reluctant to throw away most things. However, they also listened to Jiang Mixia and took this opportunity to buy some new things.
Two new beds, a new box, two new bathtubs, a new set of tables, chairs and benches, as well as some miscellaneous and useful things were added.
Beds, boxes and other things involving carpentry were all made by Jiang Chunshi.
Jiang Youcheng just said that he couldn't find a reliable carpenter, so he felt more at ease when his family did the work. But Jiang Chunshi also knew that his uncle wanted him to practice, so he was grateful and naturally did his best.
The materials are good and the workmanship is fine, and the products are impeccable.
Lian Jiang Mixia praised the things when she saw them.
In the evening, brothers Jiang Chunshi and Jiang Chunyu came together to deliver the newly made tables and chairs.
A square table and four chairs, made stable and solid, polished smoothly without any burrs.
Also sent along was a puppet that Jiang Chunshi had carved recently based on the design drawn by Jiang Mixia.
"Take a look, is it like this?" It was also the first time for Jiang Chunshi to carve something according to a pattern, so he was a little unsure.
What was brought over was a cartoon Q-version bunny and deer, the size of an adult's fist, made according to Jiang Mixia's drawings, and looked almost exactly the same, round and plump, and very cute.
"Brother, your craftsmanship is really good. It looks like this." Jiang Mixia nodded repeatedly, holding the two things in her hands, looking left and right, unable to let go.
"It's fine like this." Jiang Chunshi grinned, "Then I'll finish carving the rest of the pattern in the next two days, and then take it to the town to try to sell it when the market comes."
"These two are given to you by my elder brother. You and Jing Yun can play with them."
"Thank you, big brother." Jiang Mixia also liked it very much, so she didn't say anything polite.
Jiang Chunshi and Jiang Chunyu stayed here for a while, talked for a while, and then went home when it was almost time for dinner, saying that the remaining wooden barrels would be delivered in two days.
Before leaving, Liu asked them to take some freshly baked pancakes back with them.
When I go to bed at night, I lie on a new bed.
A thick mattress was laid, and on top of that was a bamboo mat. It was cool and not uncomfortable to the body. In order to keep the room cool, several basins of water were placed in the room. At night, when the window was opened and a breeze blew, it was quite cool.
Song Jingyun was also very satisfied, because the new bed was much more spacious than the original one, and even if he was lying in a "spread" shape, they would not touch each other.
It simply couldn’t be more comfortable!
In the following days, I continued to clean up the new house and buy new things. I spent the rest of the time working in the fields and weaving baskets and bamboo baskets at night.
In a blink of an eye, it was the fifth day of July, and it was time to go to market again.
I was busy cleaning the house and hadn't been to the market for a long time. I had saved up a lot of bamboo baskets and bamboo baskets at home, and this time I was going to take them all to the town.
Jiang Chunshi also went to the market to sell the small stools and carved puppets he made.
Jiang San's ox cart had been waiting at the door of Jiang Youcheng's house a long time ago, and he also helped to load things onto the cart.
