Chapter 34 He Wants Her to Have Money to Spend
"you do not say."
Liu Yu followed suit.
The two of them had a very pleasant conversation, while Zhou Zheng looked around Li Hongmei's house.
That’s why people say people in cities live a good life.
Li Hongmei’s husband is the deputy director of a flour mill.
Although he is not the top boss, this flour mill is state-owned, so once the flour is produced, there is absolutely no worry about not being able to sell it.
Therefore, the factory's performance is pretty good, and being the deputy factory director also pays well.
The welfare benefits are good and there is no shortage of various receipts.
Therefore, Li Hongmei's home is fully furnished.
Unlike Zhou Zheng’s home, there isn’t even a decent dining table.
But Zhou Zheng was not afraid. He had seen carpenters working before and thought he could do it too.
He just wanted to see how furniture was made in other people's homes so that he could go back and learn how to make it.
He felt he could.
So he said to Li Hongmei:
"Cousin, can I see the structure of the furniture in your house?"
His words attracted the attention of the two women.
Liu Yu was a little puzzled:
"What do you do with the furniture in their house?"
“I want to learn how to do it.”
"ah?"
Both women exclaimed.
Liu Yu couldn't believe it at all. What Zhou Zheng said was true.
But he still insisted:
"Just look at the structure, nothing special."
Zhou Zheng explained.
Li Hongmei smiled and said:
"Look, look, it's not bad, just look at it."
There is nothing special in Li Hongmei's house except for a square table.
With four table legs, the table top is ready.
However, making furniture requires the mortise and tenon structure, which is the joint, and is a relatively critical area.
Tables and chairs made by good carpenters are also more durable.
This is exactly what Zhou Zheng wanted to observe.
In addition to the table, there are also chests of drawers, large wardrobes, etc.
Liu Yu actually shook his head in disapproval.
Even if you know how to make it after watching it, you still need wood to make it.
But the Zhou family was so poor that they had nothing but four walls in their house and had no money even to buy wood.
Zhou Zheng actually thought of making furniture.
However, Liu Yu did not pour cold water on him and let him continue watching.
In addition to furniture, Li Hongmei's house also has semiconductor radios and other things.
Li Hongmei was also wearing a watch on her hand.
Zhou Zheng didn't seem to be very interested in these.
Liu Yu thought of the time when Zhou Zheng came back to visit his parents-in-law, he also gave his family a Plum Blossom watch.
It just feels a bit strange.
Logically speaking, their family was so poor, how could they still have Plum watches and Maotai liquor?
This doesn't make sense.
I'll have to ask him about it later.
Logically speaking, it was almost noon, and Liu Yu and Zhou Zheng should stay at Li Hongmei's house for lunch.
Li Hongmei also warmly invited them to stay.
But he thought of his two children at home and his blind grandmother who was waiting for them to return.
Liu Yu and Zhou Zheng didn't stay long.
Liu Yu asked Li Hongmei to write a list, clearly listing what they wanted.
"What we lack most here is supplementary food. If you can bring some, it should sell well."
"Like what?"
“For example, eggs, if there are chickens, that will do.
You rural people should have chickens at home, right? "
"have."
"That's fine. You can also consider sending some sugar, flour, etc."
