The Only Favorite Ugly Husband

After leaving Jiang's house with his household registration documents and coming to the newly built house, the emotion left by Boss Jiang that had been lingering in Jiang Zhen's chest disappeared.

Before, even if this emotion didn't affect Jiang Zhen, it still weighed heavily on his heart, but now Jiang Zhen couldn't feel its existence.

Boss Jiang probably disappeared completely.

Thinking of this, Jiang Zhen was somewhat disappointed.He got Boss Jiang's body, got Boss Jiang's memory, and was able to live in this ancient time, but Boss Jiang... the man who had never lived a good life died.

Jiang Zhen felt a little sympathetic to Boss Jiang, but he only sympathized with him for a while. He still had a lot to do.

Houses in the countryside don’t use bricks and tiles. They just build earthen walls, put up beams, and then make a roof with bamboo and thatch. It can be built very quickly. Jiang Zhen’s house was built with the help of the whole village. It was faster, but although the house was built, it was not actually suitable for living.

There are no blue bricks or slabs on the ground, only mud. The house is already very damp, and the newly built mud walls make the humidity even higher. There are still many things missing in the house...

Jiang Zhen first cleaned out a house to store grain, then locked the chicken he got from Jiang's house in the broken thatched hut that had not been demolished, sprinkled a handful of millet on it, and then began to toss about his own house Come.

Probably in order to build the house for him as soon as possible, the villagers did not make a chimney for this house that required a certain level of technology. The pot is a circle, but it can be used anyway, because it is low and there is no need to worry about burning the thatch above it.

Bringing back some straw mulberry sticks from the thatched hut, put them into the clay stove and lit them, and dried the clay stove while dispelling the moisture in the house. Jiang Zhen thought about it, and lit fires in different parts of the house.

All the doors and windows were opened, and after the small fires were ignited, the moisture on the surface of the house was almost dissipated. As for the moisture inside the mud wall, it was nothing to worry about.

The furniture moved from Jiang Chengxiang's house was actually not much. Jiang Zhen tidied it up and put it away in the house, and then found that he still lacked a lot of things.

He doesn't have the desks and chairs that every household has now, and he still lacks a lot of daily necessities... It seems that he will have to go to the county seat tomorrow.

After tidying up the house, Jiang Zhen went to rebuild the hut behind the house.

A special room was built for his hut, but the latrine... the villagers just dug a hole randomly!

Jiang Zhen couldn't accept such a crude hut, so he planned to renovate it, at least dig a passage from the bottom to the outside and dig a cesspool outside, so as to avoid the smell in his hut.

For the first time in the past, Jiang Zhen, who took a nap every day, did not take a nap this day. He hummed while digging a latrine, and he was in a good mood.

However, he was in a good mood, and the Jiang family was not in a good mood.

With so much money and food taken away at once, even if the Jiang family is still relatively rich, it may take two years to recover.

"Then why don't those who kill a thousand knives die!" Mrs. Jiang scolded Jiang Zhen while scrubbing the pig's large intestine with salt.

After Jiang Zhen killed the pig, he didn't give them a piece of meat. All that was left was a mess, a pile of pig intestines and half a bucket of pig blood. These were good things, and Mrs. Jiang was naturally reluctant to throw them away. Just deal with it and scold people at the same time.

Jiang Xiaomei was silently listening to Mrs. Jiang's scolding.

She used to be very afraid of Jiang Zhen, but now that Jiang Zhen is gone, looking back and thinking about it, she found that Jiang Zhen didn't do anything to her other than snatching her eggs, and the fear dissipated a lot. Now that Mrs. Jiang was swearing, she couldn't help feeling a little bit sorry for her elder brother.

When her second and third elder brothers got married and married their daughters-in-law, they each spent tens of taels of silver as dowry gifts to build furniture, and for the wedding banquet, they used several stones of grain to make wedding cakes for the guests. The things her elder brother took away were actually Not much really.

However, it's not interesting to think about it now, she might as well think about how to find a rich and good husband's family... A few days ago, she heard her mother say that she wanted to find her a husband's family who was willing to pay more gifts, so that she could use the bride price Pay off the debt.

Jiang Xiaomei has no idea about using her dowry to repay the family's debts. When girls in the village get married, the dowry is basically for their parents. Parents can give a few taels of silver to prepare some quilts and furniture at the bottom of the box. They love their daughters. I want to choose a good one among those who are willing to give more gifts, so as not to have a hard life in the future.

When Jiang Xiaomei was worried about her marriage, Jiang Chengxiang sent Yang Jiang, who he had invited home a few days ago, back to the county.

Along the way, Jiang Chengxiang kept apologizing to Yang Jiang, but Yang Jiang ignored him. After arriving at the county seat, Yang Jiang even drew Jiang Chengxiang's body with the waist knife in his hand: "Go away!"

Jiang Chengxiang was just a thin and weak scholar. After being whipped like this, he immediately staggered, and he no longer dared to follow Yang Jiang.

As for Yang Jiang...

He looked at his hands, and suddenly realized that his movements were... so similar to the movements of that evil star of the Jiang family beating him?

Thinking of the evil star of the Jiang family, Yang Jiang suddenly felt pain everywhere in his body.

Although the evil star hadn't beaten him too badly in the past few days, he would be kicked and kicked from time to time, but it also left him covered in bruises, and there was no good flesh on his body.

He was still tired and hungry... Although the evil star gave him a meal at noon today, he only let him eat a small bite!

Yang Jiang walked home quickly, planning to eat something and sleep before thinking about anything else.

The Yang family has a small yard in the county seat, and as soon as Yang Jiang entered the yard, he saw his wife feeding chickens in the yard.

A lot of clothes were dried in this yard he was familiar with, and all kinds of things around were neatly arranged. His eldest son was away, and his younger son, a four-year-old little Shuanger, was playing with a few pieces of wood in the corner.

"Yang Jiang, where have you been? Why didn't you go home or go to the Yamen for two days?" Seeing Yang Jiang, Yang Jiang's wife let go of the dustpan with grains in her hand and walked over, asking as she walked. : "Did you go to gamble again? How much did you lose?"

Yang Jiang was usually the most impatient of this woman chattering around him, but after being tortured these few days, hearing such concern again made him feel warm in his heart.

"I'm fine." Yang Jiang said: "Go and order something for me, hurry up."

"Okay." Yang Jiang's wife immediately went to work in the kitchen.

"Wait," Yang Jiang called to stop her, "Scramble a bowl of eggs with bacon!" God knows how greedy that evil star is when he eats this dish these days...

Fresh meat still needs to be bought, but bacon is prepared by wealthy families. Yang Jiang's wife cut off a small piece of bacon in a short time, cut it into thin shreds, and fried it for two hours. an egg, and served Yang Jiang the leftover rice they left at noon.

Holding the bowl in his hand, Yang Jiang began to munch on it. After a few mouthfuls, he felt that he had come alive.

"Eat slowly, don't eat too fast, be careful to choke, how about I go make you some soup?" Yang Jiang's wife asked.

"No need." Yang Jiang said, when the soup is ready, he must have finished the meal.

Just thinking about it, Yang Jiang suddenly saw his youngest son standing not far away, drooling while looking at the scrambled eggs on his table.

He is a yamen servant, he can receive two taels of silver from the yamen a month, and from time to time, he can receive filial piety from his subordinates, share some extra money with his colleagues, and sometimes he can earn more than ten taels of 20 taels a month, which is reasonable In this way, his son can eat meat every day, but in fact...

He used the silver to gamble, buy things for his friends, and eat hot and spicy food for himself, but he didn't take money home.

The children of his colleagues can go to school, and his eldest son is seven years old, and he is still playing with people in the alley covered in mud.

"What are you looking at? Go outside and play." Yang Jiang's wife saw her youngest son staring at Yang Jiang's scrambled eggs, afraid that Yang Jiang would get angry, so she patted the child.

"What are you beating the child for?" Yang Jiang's heart trembled when he saw his wife shouting at his second son.He already understood the mess about the Jiang family. It was entirely caused by the old lady Jiang's harsh treatment of her son. He himself should not fall into that situation!

"Come on, Ermao, come to Daddy, Daddy will give you eggs." Yang Jiang smiled at his youngest son.

Yang Ermao, who didn't have a proper name yet, shrank his neck and looked at Yang Jiang with a little fear, which made Yang Jiang feel a little uncomfortable.

Yang Jiang ate half of the bowl of scrambled eggs with bacon, and asked his mother-in-law to share the rest with the two children.

The two taels of silver were brought with him before he went to Jiang's house. Jiang Zhen kept beating him, but he didn't take away his silver.

After Yang Jiang gave the money, he went back to his room and went to sleep. In the end, the smell from the kitchen woke him up.

That's the smell of braised pork!Regardless of the soreness in his body, Yang Jiang quickly got up from the bed and went to the kitchen drooling.

His mother-in-law bought a pork rib and made a bowl of braised pork. The meat was oily and looked delicious.

Yang Jiang is an only son. His parents loved and loved him since he was a child, which made him develop a disregard for others. Usually, he can eat half of a bowl of meat by himself, but now...

After picking up a piece of meat for the two children, their parents and their wife, Yang Jiang suddenly found that there was only one piece left in the bowl... If he thought he usually ate a few more pieces, someone would have nothing to eat.

"I don't like meat..." Yang Jiang's wife gave Yang Jiang the meat in her bowl.

"No, no, you can eat by yourself." Yang Jiang rejected his wife, mixed the soup of braised pork in his own bowl, and ate two big bowls of rice with that piece of meat. After eating, he saw two children watching There was a little more intimacy in my eyes, and I finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Yang Jiang has someone to take care of him at home, but Jiang Zhen is alone at the moment.

In the afternoon, when he was burning the stove, he boiled the pork bones and cooked a large pot of bone soup.As a result, when he wanted to throw some vegetables into the bone broth to cook, and then cook a pot of rice, he suddenly found that...he had no rice to cook.

The Jiang family gave Wu Shi grain, but it was rice with the husks on, not brown rice with the husks removed!

Therefore, if he wanted to eat, he had to pound the rice first... Unfortunately, he didn't have any tools for pounding rice.

Forget it, even without tools, there are other ways to get some rice out...

Jiang Zhen put the rice into the bamboo tube, pounded it with a stick, and finally got himself a bowl of rice with some husks in it.

Pick up half of the pork bones and soup in the pot with a gourd ladle, Jiang Zhen pours the bowl of rice that he managed to get out into the bone soup left in the pot, and then cuts off a leaf of pork liver, cut into small pieces Throw it into the pot.

As for the remaining meat, as well as pork heart and belly, Jiang Zhen thought it would be better to keep it and eat it slowly, so he took out a jar of salt brought from Jiang's house and salted it.

And by the time he finished salting the meat, he had almost used up the jar of salt.

It seems that I have to go to the county seat tomorrow.Thinking about this, Jiang Zhen began to stuff firewood into the clay stove and cook pork liver porridge.

He now needs to eat protein and fat, but vegetables are also indispensable... Seeing that the porridge was almost done, Jiang Zhen went out and stole a piece of lettuce from Brother Zhao Jin's house...

This is a time when there is really no way, why did Jiang's family not grow vegetables in the land given to him, and other people's homes are a little far away?

However, local vegetables in the countryside are not worth much, so it's nothing for him to take a vegetable from others. Moreover, he plans to give half of this porridge to Brother Zhao Jin.

Jiang Zhen chopped the lettuce and lettuce leaves, and put them into the pot when the porridge was almost ready, and finally made his own dinner.

After eating the pork liver porridge, Jiang Zhen chewed and ate the chewable bones in the porridge.

Looking at Boss Jiang’s memory, when people killed pigs or bought meat with pig bones left behind, they would not only use the pig bones to make soup, but also chop the pig bones into small pieces, boil them for a long time, and then... Except for the part in the middle of the bone that cannot be chewed and eaten, some bones that can be boiled soft will be chewed and eaten directly.

Everyone else eats like this, so he didn't waste it. After all, his body probably lacks calcium.

It is said that bone soup does not actually supplement calcium, so if he just chews the bone, it will always supplement calcium, right?

Jiang Zhen had enough to eat and drink, and it was already dark. He lit a fire in his house, and while warming up, he pounded rice by the light of the fire, and waited for the night to be quiet.

In the dead of night, Brother Zhao Jin will come to him!

Jiang Zhen happily pounded the rice for almost two hours. Even if he used bamboo tubes, he could produce enough rice for several days, but he still couldn't wait for Brother Zhao Jin.

Brother Zhao Jin isn't planning to come over today?Jiang Zhen frowned, threw the bamboo tube in his hand, and decided to climb the wall.

It's about ten o'clock in the evening now.It was completely dark, and everyone in the village was asleep. Jiang Zhen came to Zhao's house and gently knocked on Zhao Jinge's window.

After a while, the window was opened, and it was obvious that Brother Zhao Jin was not asleep either.

It's shy and embarrassing to come to him waiting for him?

"Brother Jin, come out." Jiang Zhen said.

"I'm going to sleep..." Zhao Jinge said.

"If you don't come out, I'll go in." Jiang Zhen made a gesture to climb into the house.
