Reborn Little Carpenter

The next morning, Liu Fang got up to grind the rice milk, and when the sky was a little brighter, she cooked porridge in a pot, and when Qi Yue and the others got up to eat, Liu Fang prepared cakes for them at noon.

Heat up the pan, spread a thin layer of oil, scoop a scoop of rice milk and pour it in circles, the rice milk touches the hot iron pan, and it will soon be cooked into cake noodles, and the remaining rice milk will gather in the middle, Liu Fang finally wiped it with a spatula, and a round cake was made.

Once one side is baked, turn it over again. When it's about the same time, put a pickle leaf with a chopstick and spread it out, then roll up the cake.

The cakes made by Liu Fang are big, and now one cake can fry a large plate, but the work in the quarry is heavy, and you can’t do it for a day if you don’t eat enough. Liu Fang baked two for each of the three of them, and took oil paper wrap up.

It was Qi Yue's first time doing this job, and Liu Fang was afraid that he would not be able to bear it, so Qi Yue's cakes were especially thick, but unfortunately the family had already eaten all the eggs, and Liu Fang was secretly annoyed: Otherwise, I could add an egg to Xiao Yue.

Liu Fang handed him Qiyue's pancakes and told him to put them in his pocket, then baked two more, this time there was no extravagance, and wrapped them in oiled paper. She tore a piece of banana leaf from the yard, washed it, wrapped it and handed it to him. Qi Yue: "You take this well, I will bring you Uncle Tian and Xiao Xing later."

Uncle Tian in Liu Fang's mouth, formerly named Tian Tang, was not from Yanhe Village. I heard from him that he was an orphan since he was a child, and later became a ranger. He fell in love with a peasant girl before. He settled down in the village, but unfortunately his wife fell ill and died. He didn't want to stay in that sad place, so he left with his one-year-old son Tian Yuxing.

Later, by chance, I came to Yanhe Village and lived in Yanhe Village for more than ten years.

Tian Tang Shanshui usually fishes on the river. In order to thank the villagers of Yanhe Village for their kindness, occasionally the people of Yanhe Village want to go out by boat, so they ask him to give him a ride, free of charge.

Although Tian Tang was a bit taciturn, he was a very good person. He was the one who saved Qi Yue from falling into the water before, so it is not an exaggeration to say that he has saved his life.

After Qi Yue woke up, accompanied by Qi Yougen, he personally went to his house to thank him once. For the convenience of fishing, Tian Tang's house was built by the river.

When the three of Qi Yue arrived, Tian Tang was teaching boxing to his son in the yard. He usually got up early to go fishing. This meeting had already started, but he made an appointment with Qi Yougen yesterday, and today he will wait for a while.

Seeing them coming, Tian Tang retreated and nodded towards them.

His son Tian Yuxing called out obediently.

Qi Yue handed him the pancake in his hand: "You haven't eaten yet, here, take it and eat it."

Tian Yuxing glanced at Tian Tang before taking it: "Thank you Brother Yue."

"Well," Qi Yueyou handed Tian Tang one: "Uncle Tian, ​​this is for you."

Tian Tang took it silently.

Qi Yue put the newly made fish baskets in the yard again: "Last time I saw that the fish baskets at Uncle's house are a bit old, I made two of them by myself, they are a bit rough, Uncle, don't dislike them."

Tian Tang looked at it and nodded: "Not bad, how much?"

Qi Yue was taken aback for a moment, and suddenly couldn't laugh or cry: "Uncle, you and I are still so polite."

Tian Tang took a look at him, didn't mention the money again, finished eating the pancake in his hand with a few mouthfuls, and set off with a few people.

The river is gurgling, bamboo rafts flow down the river, and the green hills on both sides are reflected in the water.

Sitting on the bamboo raft, Qi Yue propped his head and thought. In his previous life, he was a carpenter, and all the work he did was making beds, tables, cabinets and other furniture. He had never sold bamboo weaving, but Tian Tang's words reminded him, maybe He can try more, make up some things like baskets and fish baskets and sell them. I don't know if it will make money?

Although he is not very good at bamboo weaving, based on the experience of weaving fish baskets in the past two days, it seems that it is not difficult, and maybe he can really try it.

When Qi Yue was thinking about this, the bamboo rafts had already floated all the way to the wharf outside the county seat. Yanhe Village belongs to Yitai County, and the county seat was built at the confluence of Qingwu River and another river called Nanshi River.

Outside the county seat is a city wall made of huge stones, and most of the houses inside are made of stones.

This is all because there is a quarry on the west side of the county seat, and it is convenient to get stones. This is really the place where Qiyue and the others are going today.

The work in the quarry is hard work. You work there for thirty cents a day, and the wages are settled on the same day. You can come when you want, and you can leave when you don’t want to. Although the wages are not high, they are always available.

Those who have no other way and want to make money can come.

When you arrive at the place, go to the supervisor and get a sign and tools to work.

It was obviously not the first time for Qi Yougen and Wu Xiaoxi to come here. With Qi Yue, they quickly found a place where no one was there, and climbed up to the halfway stone, where there were still a few iron chisels stuck in the stone.

Wu Xiaoxi picked up one that was on the ground next to it, and the two of them supported the iron chisel while the other knocked it down.

When the chisel was almost able to stand, Qi Yougen called out to Qi Yue: "Xiao Yue, come and get this, just smash it down."

"Oh."

Hearing his response, Qi Yougen and Wu Xiaoxi went to get the next one.

Qi Yue took the sledgehammer and lowered the wheel, the hammer and the iron chisel hit each other, his arm was numb from the shock, Qi Yue looked around, everyone was working like this, so he had no choice but to continue.

It was the first time for Qiyue to do this kind of work. It was fine at first, but after a long time of knocking, not only his arms became numb, but also his eardrums were a little numb, and the working place in the quarry was all exposed to the outside, as soon as the sun came out. There was no shade, and he was so hot that he was sweating profusely, and his eyes were covered with sweat.

His hands were raised and lowered, they were raised and lowered, his body moved mechanically, and his soul had already flown.

Hot, tired and thirsty, at first he thought that as a big man, he would never admit defeat in front of Qi Yougen and Wu Xiaoxi, but after two hours of mechanical smashing, he really couldn't do it.

Qi Yue threw it on the big hammer, wiped off his sweat, walked to the place where they put their things, picked up the bamboo tube containing water, opened the lid and took a few sips to get better: "Father, Xiaoxi, drink some water and take a rest. "

Qi Yougen and Wu Xiaoxi wiped off their sweat, put down the hammer and walked over.

Qi Yougen took a sip of water and asked Qi Yue: "Are you okay?"

Qi Yue nodded, really didn't have the energy to speak.

Seeing that his face was flushed from the sun, but his lips were dry and white, Qi Yougen felt distressed: "It's like this for the first time, don't force yourself too much, if you can't do it, just take a break and take your time."

Qi Yue nodded, and when he was about to say something, he saw Wu Xiaoxi covering his stomach with his hand: "What's wrong? Stomach pain?"

Wu Xiaoxi shook his head: "It's okay." But his hands were still covering his stomach.

Qi Yue became clearer, pointing in a direction: "It should be there, you go by yourself?"

Wu Xiaoxi followed his fingers to see that it was a hut, but Wu Xiaoxi still shook his head: "No need."

Well, Qi Yue didn't say anything more, he didn't want to do this kind of thing, so he couldn't force him to do it.

After hearing the news for a while, the three of them started clanging their hammers again. When the sun was high, they stopped to find a place to have lunch.

At the place where they smashed stones, they found a shady corner below, and the three of them sat on the ground, eating cakes with cold water covering their heads, and no one wanted to say a word.

Qi Yue ate faster, and when he finished eating Qi Yougen and the two of them were still eating, especially Wu Xiaoxi, who seemed to have no appetite, took a bite and chewed it for a long time before swallowing it, Qi Yue felt a little strange, Wu Xiaoxi didn't eat before Eat like this.

And looking carefully, Qi Yue found that Wu Xiaoxi's hand was resting on his stomach all the time, Qi Yue thought about what happened in the morning, and was a little worried whether he was feeling unwell.

Just thinking about it, the cake in Wu Xiaoxi's hand suddenly fell to the ground, and he rolled his eyes and fell down.

Qi Yue was taken aback, but fortunately he was sitting next to Wu Xiaoxi, and quickly helped him up. There are bare stones all around, what if he falls down?

Qi Yue shouted several times: "Xiaoxi! Wu Xiaoxi!"

Wu Xiaoxi didn't respond.

Qi Yougen at the side noticed that Wu Xiaoxi had fainted, so he ran over immediately, and asked anxiously, "What's going on? Why did you faint suddenly?"

Qi Yue grabbed Wu Xiaoxi's hands, after a few breaths, Wu Xiaoxi frowned, his eyes trembled, and he muttered: "It hurts."

Qi Yue heaved a sigh of relief, at least he woke up, but seeing that his mouth kept screaming in pain, and his hands kept covering his stomach, he was afraid that his stomach hurt, so Qi Yue's first reaction was to send him to the hospital.

Qi Yue stood up and pulled the man onto his back: "Father, I'll take Xiaoxi to see the doctor."

"Go quickly." Qi Yougen said repeatedly.

Qi Yue pulled up his legs and ran, but was stopped by someone outside, who shouted sharply: "Stop! Why are you going!"

Qi Yue was sweating profusely: "My partner fainted, I will send him to see a doctor."

The man obviously saw it too: "You can go, but keep the cards."

Qi became more anxious: "At this time..."

"Guardian, Guanye," Qi Yougen chased after him, "Here are their cards."

The man took the sign and got out of the way, shouting: "You haven't worked enough for a day, and you don't get paid for today!"

The paint runs away sooner.

The man yelled at Qi Yougen who was still there: "What are you still doing in a daze? Go to work! If you waste any more time here, be careful not to deduct your wages!"

Qi Yougen stepped into the quarry step by step and turned his head three times.
