In Du's house, the last new house was almost completed. At the finishing stage, Du Qingchen went home, paid the wages, and thanked him politely.
"Boss Du is too polite, isn't this what it should be? You contribute money and we contribute, how can we afford a word of thanks." Qiu Zhuantou wiped off his sweat and smiled heartily.
Du Qingchen also smiled and said a few words politely.
Just as he was talking, Father Du came in from the door with his hand in a cylindrical hand warmer. It was a bit cold at first, and before it was cold, Father Du was already wearing thick clothes and brought a hand warmer. .
Du's father worked hard for many years before, his body was thin, he suffered from ailments, he was also old, and he was most intolerant of wind and cold. It was only a slightly cool day, and he already felt cold. Su Dong made this hand warmer for him.
"Father, you are so afraid of the cold, why don't you just stay at home! Why do you run to the entrance of the village every day? Rulin will come back when it's time to come back. You can't urge him to come back even if you wait for him all the time!"
Qiu Zhuantou also persuaded after hearing the words: "That's right, I think what Boss Du said is right, you! I also provided a kang for this family according to Boss Du's request. You are weak, so you sit cross-legged on the kang every day." How good it is to enjoy the blessings of the Qing Dynasty, and the children and grandchildren have their own blessings! I see that your youngest son is full of heaven, and he is blessed when he looks at it. He must pass the exam this time, so you don't have to worry about it!"
Du's father sighed, and he was not in the mood to joke with the two of them. He just frowned, "Why is he still not coming back? Just wait for the rankings to be released, and he should be home in a few days!"
"Maybe I met some friends and played with them for a few days. Don't worry. Mr. Tao promised to take care of them, and he will always take care of them. I guess the Tao family left them to play for a few days." Du Qingchen chuckle.
Du's father was still worried, and sighed again, his father was worried when his son traveled thousands of miles, not to mention that Du Rulin was so young and had never traveled far, so no matter how Du Qingchen tried to appease him, it was impossible for him not to be worried.
Su Dong came out with a basin of dirty water, and three people passed by and walked towards the outside of the courtyard. The huge wooden basin was filled with sewage. Su Dong was still walking very steadily. Du Qingchen wanted to reach out to help, but Su Dong walked fast and was already out. He walked through the door, stood at the door and poured it into the ditch outside, and came back with a wooden basin in one hand.
After Su Dong came back, he said to Father Du: "Father, I have cleaned up your house, why don't you go back and see if there is anything else that needs my help."
Daughter-in-law is too diligent!Du Qingchen was helpless. He and Su Dong had just returned not long ago, and he was just paying someone a bill. After a few words, Su Dong had already cleaned Du's father's new house.
Father Du also felt that Su Dong's hands and feet were quite nimble. Finally, a smile appeared on his face, he let go of his sorrow, and waved his hands again and again, "Don't be busy, just take a rest! You've been busy in the town on weekdays, and you don't have to. If you can't be free, you should take a good rest when you come back, and you can't be exhausted."
"It's okay dad, I'm not tired, besides, if I don't clean, it's you or my husband, so I'll do it!"
Du's father is old and weak, and he is already wearing thick clothes because of the cold. Du Qingchen is already very busy on weekdays. He is a person who settles accounts and does business.Su Dong felt that it was his job to take care of the house, how could he ask Du Qingchen to help clean the house again?He had to be quicker in his hands and feet, and finish all the housework before Du Qingchen freed up his hands to help him.
When Qiu Zhuantou saw him, he praised and sighed repeatedly, "This Su Dong is capable! He is good-looking, can embroider and mend, and has a rich dowry. He is actually so capable and cleans up the house so neatly. Oh, hello, Boss Du." Good luck! You said that two years ago, there were people in our village who wanted to marry the Su family, but they hesitated and did not propose marriage. The result! Now that you are married to a tigress, you know how to be prestige. Do it, if it was..."
"Ahem." Du Qingchen coughed twice to interrupt Qiu Zhuantouer's words.
"Oh, look at my mouth, I'm sorry, I'm sorry! Anyway, that's what I mean, Boss Du is so lucky!" Qiu Brick said with a smile.
Du Qingchen raised his eyebrows, "I'm very lucky. Since I married Brother Dong, everything I do has been very smooth. First, the Chen family collapsed, and then business was booming. I went to the county government a few days ago, and it turned out to be fine." County Magistrate Feng's favor, everything went smoothly."
When Qiu Zhuantou heard this, he was speechless for a while. Although he didn't know what happened to the county government office, he knew other things. Thinking about it this way, Su Dong is really prosperous!Originally, Qiu Zhuantou only had one point of approval, but in order to build a good relationship with Du Qingchen, he praised it very much.But hearing what Du Qingchen said, Qiu Brick looked a little envious, and there was even some remorse hidden deep in his eyes.
What he just said was not someone else, but his own nephew, but because of the bad reputation of the Su family at the beginning, he was also worried that the Hou family would cause trouble in the future, and even though Su Dong was good, he was his elder brother. , and delicate body?So in the end, he didn't propose a marriage, and later married a woman from a neighboring village.
Who would have thought that the brother they despised at the beginning was handsome, generous, hardworking and capable, and most importantly, prosperous!And the woman they worked so hard to marry back looked like nothing, she wasn't pretty but she was a normal girl, and it turned out!The oil bottle is poured without a support, it is simply offering an ancestor to come back!
However, the women in the countryside are precious, and all good-looking women marry into towns or county towns, and some go to rich families to be concubines. There are fewer women in this way, so families with daughters have always been Pampered, his niece and daughter-in-law are actually not the only ones.
Du Qingchen didn't care about what Qiu Zhuantou was thinking, so he turned to Su Dong and said, "Go back to the house and rest!"
Su Dong was just happy to be praised by Du Qingchen, and when he heard Du Qingchen say that again, knowing that it was Du Qingchen who cared about him, he felt sweet in his heart, so he nodded, "Then I'll go back to the room first!" I need to make a few more sets of winter clothes, so I just go back and do them.
Du Qingchen nodded with a smile, and Su Dong went back to the room.
After getting the wages, Qiu Zhuantou also said that he had to work quickly, so he stopped chatting and went to work on his own.
Du Qingchen sent Du's father into his house. Inside the house, the kang was so hot that it was like a radiator. The whole house was much warmer than the outside. It stands to reason that the new house is damp and not suitable for living in directly, but the kang kept burning. It's been three or four days, so the house is still pretty good.
It was getting colder and the wooden house was always leaking, so Du Qingchen said to Father Du: "Father, why don't you just move over from the wooden house tonight, and it just so happens that Su Dong also cleaned it for you, you put the bedding You can sleep when you move here. I think the kang is warm, so it won’t get colder and freeze you.”
Du's father was also a little moved. He had been busy before, and he didn't clean up the new house after it was built. The house was full of dust and small broken bricks. He just burned the kang to warm the house. As a result, Su Dong cleaned it up within a short time after he came back. Now, the new house is clean, and even the kang is covered with straw mats. He only needs to bring the quilt over to sleep.
"Then, let's do it! Just free up the room and use it as a study for Ru Lin."
"Okay. Then I'll help you move the bedding, tables, chairs and benches later." Du Qingchen nodded.
"By the way, after your house is built, you can also burn the kang for a few days, so you can live in it in a few days." Father Du instructed.
"Don't worry! I know." Du Qingchen nodded. "In a few days, we'll all be able to live in our own houses."
When Du's father heard this, he also had a smile on his face.
"By the way, dad, how is my pepper?" Du Qingchen asked.
Speaking of this, Father Du was furious!His family has several generations of poor peasants, and he himself has planted land for most of his life. Although he has never grown this kind of thing called pepper, Father Du is very confident. Can grow things.
The results of it!It was already autumn when Du Qingchen gave him the seeds, and he still looked confident that he would be able to plant them, so he wondered in his heart, are these peppers grown in autumn?But seeing how confident Du Qingchen is, he must let him do it!He felt that this thing is about the same as winter wheat. It was planted in autumn, and after wintering in the field, it will start to grow in the next year. The result!
The young seedlings that just came out were all frozen to death when the cold wind blew!He has planted the land all his life!As a result, so many seedlings were planted to death, and there was no harvest, so he didn't want to lose face!
As a crop handleman who has been planting for most of his life, he has lost face after planting so many seedlings!But fortunately, Du's father was worried about something wrong before planting, and left half of the seeds unplanted. He thought that if this crop didn't work, he would plant them again in the next spring. Don't even think about counting on seedlings!
Du Qingchen looked dumbfounded at Du's father's sudden rage, and jumped up and scolded him severely. Du Qingchen understood, and said with difficulty: "Father, the pepper... is gone!"
"Nonsense! As soon as the cold wind blows, they all die! You say you! I asked you specifically, can you plant it at this time? You think about it yourself, and then tell me that it can be planted! This is what can be planted at this time Is it?! Ah! Your father and I have lost all face! A few days ago when your second uncle came, he saw the dead seedlings in the yard and told me that I was confused in doing business and didn’t even have land. I will grow it, and say that I have forgotten my roots!" Father Du's hair was about to stand on end in anger.
Du Qingchen silently lowered his head and raised his sleeves and wiped his face. When Du's father scolded him, he scolded him. It's okay. He has a thick skin and is used to it, but...
"Father, it's really... all gone?" The chili peppers he managed to get were really all dead!All hope is gone!Then when will he see chili again, and even cook with it!
Du Qingchen thought of the merchants who came here from the county for dinner these days, but it was really bad, so he asked these guests if they had gone to or returned from the south, and he would see if he could get someone to buy some for them.
Du Qingchen was helpless, how did he know that peppers could not be grown!From childhood to adulthood, the only plant he ever planted was the succulent pot in the office, and he raised it to death. Who knows how to grow peppers!He also came here, and after careful observation, he discovered the difference between barley seedlings and leeks. He really can't grow things!
There is a specialization in surgery, and farming is definitely his weakest point!
Father Du pondered for a moment, "I still left half of the seeds for you. I was afraid that you wouldn't know. I only left half of the seeds for nothing. Let's see now! Luckily, I left half of them! Try again in the spring of next year." Try it!"
"That's great." Du Qingchen heaved a sigh of relief, as long as there are still seeds, Father Du is worthy of being Father Du, he is so swearing and anxious that he wants him to grow peppers, Father Du can still rely on his senses to mutter Suspected him, and even secretly kept half of the seeds, the crop style!An absolute farmer!thumbs up!Must thumbs up!
Du Qingchen looked up and was about to praise, but Du's father gave him a hard look and stared back.Well, let's not mention this, I am in a fit of anger!
Du Rulin came back in the evening, and Tao Taishou specially sent servants to send a few teenagers back. He also came with congratulatory gifts for Mr. Liu, and even some greeting cards from other officials. He wanted to invite Mrs. Liu Go to the provincial capital to open a private school, or go to their home to be a teacher and teach the children of their family.
Mr. Liu refused. When he was the poorest, he did not accept Tao Taishou's help and went to the provincial capital to be a small official, let alone now, he has established a firm foothold here, and he has no shortage of fame and money. Why go to the provincial capital to torture and embarrass yourself.
Du Rulin refused the Tao family's servants to see him off, and left him with Master Liu, carrying his bags and returning home. As soon as he entered the door, he saw Du Qingchen moving tables and chairs into the new house under Du's father's command.
"Father! Brother!" Du Rulin's tense nerves finally relaxed, and he laughed.
"Finally back." Du Qingchen smiled and heaved a sigh of relief, turning his gaze to Father Du.
Seeing that Du's father was too happy to say anything, he just stared at Du Rulin blankly. The next moment, he trotted towards Du Rulin and slapped Du Rulin on the back, "You bastard, you should have come back a long time ago. , Only now entered the house! You don't even think about whether your family is worried about you!"
Du Rulin let Father Du do it, it didn't hurt anyway, he still laughed and said, "Father, I passed the exam."
"Boss Du is too polite, isn't this what it should be? You contribute money and we contribute, how can we afford a word of thanks." Qiu Zhuantou wiped off his sweat and smiled heartily.
Du Qingchen also smiled and said a few words politely.
