Su Ruyi nodded: "Uncle Li, it won't work if you don't make an iron shaft. The wooden shaft won't turn. Isn't it a waste of money?"

Carpenter Li: "...can your family have enough food?"

Who doesn’t know that the Lu family is so poor that they can’t even afford food?

However, I heard that Su Ruyi went back to her parents' home recently, and this time she gave herself a deposit. Could it be that she got a lot of money from her parents' home?

Strange.

Su Ruyi smiled and said: "Uncle Li, just go ahead and do it. I guarantee you won't lose the money!"

Carpenter Li: "What did your mother-in-law say?"

Su Ruyi: "I have the final say in our family now. If I say that I will be my mother-in-law, I will definitely not say no."

Carpenter Li felt even more weird. He couldn't help but think of his family's gossip about Su Ruyi, saying that she was taking care of her family now. Is this true?

Then Su Ruyi said again: "Uncle Li, do you have any eggs at home? Can I buy some?"

Oh, you see, Su Ruyi got a lot of money when she returned to her parents' home this time. Not only did she make a wheelchair, but she also sold eggs!

Carpenter Li collected the small pile of copper coins in front of him and said, "Our family doesn't raise chickens."

Su Ruyi left the carpenter's house and went straight to Hu Langzhong's house. Last time Hu Langzhong gave Dalang and the others eggs, so there must be some in his house.

Hu Langzhong's family has a small family. I practice medicine and my son is studying, so the land is rented to other people for farming, and there are usually people at home.

When Su Ruyi arrived, Hu Langzhong's grandson was playing alone in the yard. He was not afraid when he saw Su Ruyi and asked openly: "Auntie, who are you looking for?"

Su Ruyi couldn't help but feel fond of the little guy, and she couldn't help but sigh that the egg was so big... what a huge difference.

"Hello, are your adults here?"

"As long as my dad is here! My grandpa took my brother to the mountains to dig for medicinal materials, and my grandma and mother went to the town!"

"Oh, can you ask your father to come out and say something? I want to buy some eggs from your family -"

When Su Ruyi heard that someone from their family was going to town, she thought that the eggs were probably gone, but since they were all here, she might as well ask.

The little guy shook his head seriously, "I don't dare. My dad is studying and if someone makes trouble, he will beat him!"

"Ahem!"

As soon as the child finished speaking, two coughs were heard in the room, and then a middle-aged man who looked like a scholar stood at the door: "My mother and daughter-in-law took the eggs to the town to sell them, but we don't have any at home."

Apparently what was said outside was heard inside.

Su Ruyi said: "Okay, then I'll go to another house and ask. Sorry for bothering you."

Su Ruyi exited the courtyard and closed the courtyard door. Don't lose a child in the courtyard.

There was no one else in the house, so Su Ruyi didn't bother to look for them. She just went home with the empty basket and waited for everyone to finish their work.

Lu Duotian and Dan'er were still the only ones at home. Su Ruyi came back to say hello to them, and then went to the kitchen.

There isn't much water in the big tank, and everyone is too anxious these days to save water.

She took two buckets, scooped out all the water in the tank, and poured it all into the big wooden basin outside.

Then he closed the broken door of the kitchen, opened the door of the space, and went in carrying the bucket.

Often after many trips back, the water tank is finally filled.

Pour another bucket into the large iron pot and light it on fire.

Boil a pot of water, pour it into the bucket, and put it down next to the big basin in the yard.

Su Ruyi went into the house to get Dan'er: "Dan'er, let's go, Mom will give you a bath!"

As soon as he held her in his arms, Dan'er began to whine again, and his hands and feet fluttered wildly.

Su Ruyi: "After taking a bath, I'll give you some sweets!"

Dan'er rolled his eyes and stopped crying.

Lu Duotian, who was silent over there, couldn't help but said: "Dan'er is not stupid. He knows everything in his heart. Maybe it will be normal when he grows up."

It was considered to comfort Su Ruyi.

Su Ruyi said: "I think so too, this little guy is very good. When I get rich later, I will take him to Tongzhou to show it to the local doctors."

After saying that, he looked over to the kang bed and said with a smile, "I'll also look at my brother's legs. I think there's still hope."

Lu Duotian was suddenly excited and couldn't speak for a while. Finally he said: "...Okay."

Su Ruyi put the egg in the yard, then went back to her house and took out a large piece of cotton cloth.

He adjusted the water temperature in the big basin, peeled off the eggs and put them in. At first, the boss of Dan'er was not happy, and moved around with his hands and feet, splashing water all over Su Ruyi's face.

"Dan'er, don't move. If you move again, won't I give you candy?!"

Su Ruyi wiped her face with her sleeve and said with a straight face.

Only then did Daner calm down.

Be good, this kid is so dirty!

The dirt on this body is thick layer by layer, and it is estimated that it will be half a pound lighter after washing.

I soaked it in water and soaked my hair for a while. In the meantime, I washed my child's hair. With the current weather, I don't have to worry about him getting cold.

The child's hair was dirty and tangled, so Su Ruyi did not dare to wash it vigorously, so she rinsed it with water several times and rubbed it with cotton cloth to remove the excess moisture.

Then wash your body.

Dan'er is very thin, and it's not obvious when wearing clothes. But when he takes off his clothes, he looks like a big-headed doll, and his ribs are very obvious one by one.

How pitiful.

"Dan'er, be good. From now on, my mother will buy you some meat to eat, okay?"

Su Ruyi coaxed her heartily and rubbed his back...

They are all black and fat loaches!

Su Ruyi: "..."

Not dirty, not dirty, not disgusted by my own...

A little basin friend had been washing for a long time, and the water in the basin could not be seen.

Su Ruyi wiped his body with cotton cloth, then picked him up from the basin and wiped his feet. The little guy subconsciously hugged her neck.

The child's body is soft and his strength is small. When he is hugged, he gives people a very gentle feeling.

Such a gentle hug made Su Ruyi's heart soften.

She didn't dare to carry the child into her own room, fearing that Dan'er would roll out of bed when she turned around, so she carried the child into her elder brother's room and placed her on the kang, asking Lu Duotian to help watch.

I went out and poured out the dirty water, washed Dan'er's two small rags, wrung them out and hung them up to dry.

Dan'er's change of clothes was at her mother-in-law's house. Su Ruyi thought for a while and didn't go to her mother-in-law's house to get it.

Originally, it was okay to go get some clothes, but my mother-in-law's trust in me had just been established, so I decided to consolidate it.

Besides, I don’t want others to enter my house casually, so I still have to have this sense of boundaries.

Dan'er left him naked for the time being. Anyway, the weather wasn't cold now. Although it was cold in the room, it would be okay if he was covered with a quilt on the kang.

The children who collected firewood in the evening came back first, chasing each other. They remembered that their third aunt said they were going to make burritos in the morning, so they were more active when collecting firewood. This was the first time that they couldn't wait to go home.

Everyone put the firewood neatly in the stove, and Da Lang also took a broom to sweep the dregs that fell on the ground onto the firewood pile.

Looking at the pot, there was only a pot of water, and then ran out to look at the small stove and small iron pot in the yard. Several people looked at each other, and couldn't help but feel disappointed in their eyes.

Did Third Aunt lie to them?
