Chapter 373: suppress
Li Haitang moved a small bench and sat under the eaves, his hands quickly threading needles and threads, while Xiao Lingchuan was chopping firewood opposite.
There is not too much firewood, so save more and burn it overnight, so that the house will not be so cold, or you will get up early the next morning with goose bumps all over your body.
Occasionally, the couple looked up, met their eyes, looked at each other, and then looked away unnaturally.
Tonight, the savage husband is going back to Lucheng, Li Haitang is reluctant, but he can\'t be coquettish, being able to accompany her for a day is already his greatest ability.
She had to hurry up and sew the inner garment in her hand, and make sure to change it to a new one before Xiao Lingchuan left.
Xiao Biesheng is newlywed, and they haven\'t seen each other for a few days, the couple are like glue, they can\'t wait to be together.
"Husband, let\'s make dumplings tonight."
Making dumplings requires kneading noodles, rolling skins, mixing fillings, and many processes. Li Haitang has always found it troublesome and hasn\'t eaten for a while.
"Okay, what stuffing do you eat?"
Xiao Lingchuan stopped his movements, carried the firewood to the woodshed, went to the kitchen to fetch water and wash his hands, he couldn\'t be idle for a moment.
"Pork and cabbage."
There was no fresh pork at home, so Li Haitang went to Wufu to run errands, went to the market to cut a piece of good pork belly, and came back to make dumplings for eating.
"Ma\'am, I\'m going out now."
Wu Fu had just finished eating the jujube and walnut cake, and she was very happy. She had never eaten such a good food in the village. It would be nice to have a piece of candy during the New Year\'s Eve.
Parents never treated her badly, but they also said that she is a girl, she will get married in the future, and she will have to be taken care of by her elder brother and sister-in-law when she gets old.
"Husband, Wufu is obedient, and he works neatly. He is not a troublemaker. Helping out at home saves me a lot of trouble."
Li Haitang didn\'t say anything to her face, but as soon as Wu Fu went out, she started to praise people. It was a clear decision to buy a servant to be a helper.
Especially now that she is heavy, either morning sickness or drowsiness, if there is no one to take care of her, she must be in a hurry.
"How about buying a few more people?"
Xiao Lingchuan also thinks that people are capable and know the basics. He thinks that rich families will hire old women. In the future, the bean bag will be born. The couple are inexperienced and need someone to guide them.
But finding the right person is not easy.
"No, when the month is old, I\'ll find a helper."
The people in the surrounding area also have elderly ladies who are idle at home. If they can make some money, they must be willing to help.
Meals are provided at home, and money is fixed every month.
"The city is still a bit chaotic. I went to clean up the cellar of Chun Niang\'s house."
That cellar is very hidden, if there is an emergency, it will not be a problem to hide for a few days, and he can\'t be around his wife, so he has to be prepared.
The entrance to the cellar is small, and there is no bed board inside. Xiao Lingchuan fastened one with iron nails, and laid blue bricks under it.
"It\'s too cold here, the water in the vat is frozen."
Li Haitang followed and walked around, wiping the tables, chairs and benches, which were covered with linoleum.
Near the outside, separated by a small room, it is used as a clean room, except for the poor conditions, it has everything it should have.
"Husband, the lord of Surabaya City seems to be very rich, and there is a tower dedicated to hiding treasures."
Most people hide their treasures underground to have a sense of psychological security, but Yu Wenshou is different, the tower is so high, it is full of real money, right?
"If there is a chance, I will take you to have a look."
Xiao Lingchuan patted the dust off his hands, and led Li Haitang out of the cellar, not to mention the small city of Surabaya, even the inner courtyard of the palace, as long as the lady wanted to see it, he could find a way.
"Forget it, that ghostly place is eerie."
She has been to the barbarians once, but she doesn\'t want to go again. Except for the beef and delicious milk cakes, Surabaya City didn\'t give her any pleasant memories.
She seemed to understand why Lan Yi was stimulated, and she had nightmares for several days after she came out of the dungeon.
The couple went for a walk in the courtyard again when they heard noises coming from the door.
Wu Fu held the meat, opened his hands, and blocked the door firmly, biting his lip, without saying a word.
On the opposite side stood a young couple and a girl in a floral jacket.
The three of them were dressed as if they were from the countryside.
"" Wufu, what are you doing? "
When Li Haitang saw the three people confronting each other at the door, she was sure they didn\'t know each other. She greeted, "Hurry up and let\'s make dumplings for dinner."
To have dinner early, she still wants to spend some time with her husband before sending him away.
"lady."
Wufu responded in a low voice, stood still and did not move, but looked at the three people opposite.
One of the young daughters-in-law looked at Li Haitang with a smile on her face, and said crisply, "You are the owner of Wufu, right?"
"Yes, is there something wrong?"
Li Haitang took the pork belly and handed it to the savage husband, and there was no delay in chopping the stuffing.
"That\'s right."
The little daughter-in-law glanced at her husband, and hurriedly stepped forward to introduce them. They are Wu Fu\'s brother and sister-in-law, and the girl in the flower jacket standing next to her is her natal sister.
"Oh, like this."
Li Haitang came to the city from the countryside in a nonchalant manner, fearing that he wanted something, otherwise Wufu would not be able to stare at him with a defensive expression.
She didn\'t have a good impression of this little daughter-in-law. Although she was sweet and talkative, she felt hypocritical and snobbish, and the girl in the flower jacket, with her eyes wandering around, showed that she had a big heart.
"My parents said at home, thanks to you buying Wufu, otherwise the family would not be able to survive."
The young daughter-in-law praised her a few words, but when she saw that Li Haitang didn\'t agree with her, she twitched the corners of her lips in embarrassment, and continued cheekily. Her goal was clear, and she wanted to introduce her natal girl to be a helper.
If she doesn\'t sign the death contract, her sister will not be a slave, and she will marry in the future.
What kind of good family can be found in the village, all day long, facing the loess and back to the sky, accumulating for a year, there are not a few copper coins left.
It\'s different in the city, there are many rich people, and if they are favored by some lord, they might be prosperous.
It\'s not that she is boasting, her sister is a village flower in eight villages, and she can\'t find a few with better colors.
It\'s a pity to be buried in the village like this.
"Wu Fu is stupid, his brain is not sharp, he doesn\'t know how to do needlework, and he can still eat."
Wufu\'s sister-in-law kept stepping on Wufu in order to sell her sister, but Wufu\'s elder brother nodded in agreement.
Such a stupid girl, no one has ever come to propose marriage, the matchmaker passed by the house and took a detour, and a widower in his thirties would rather find a little widow than a young girl like Wufu.
Can eat but is stupid, who can afford it? The family has to be poor! As for being able to endure hardship, being diligent, chopping firewood and fetching water, and hunting in the mountains, all these are buried in front of being able to eat.
