Chapter 10494
In the morning, the Luo family's backyard was very busy.
The jingling, clanking, and crisp sounds of bricks, tiles, and slates merge together to form a sweet symphony.
Yang Ruoqing came out of the Luo family's backyard holding a wild goose with wings tied in her hand, and headed towards the entrance of the courtyard.
The three brothers of the Li family have worked hard these days, so Yang Ruoqing, after discussing with Blacksmith Luo and Wang Cuilian about today's meal, planned to kill a large wild goose raised at home with plump meat and substantial portions to entertain them.
The so-called Dayan Goose is a name in this area of Changping Village.
It is said to be a hybrid between wild geese and geese. It is slightly smaller in size than domestic geese, mostly gray-brown in color, and has a stronger flying ability than domestic purebred geese.
Therefore, the meat tastes chewier, and the fat is better than that of domestic goose. It is suitable for high fire and is perfect for drinking and eating.
When Yang Ruoqing carried the wild geese outside, preparing to kill and clean them at the pond at the entrance of the village, in front of her were the Li brothers.
On the roadside at the entrance of the yard, a wooden cart pulling wood happened to be parked at the door.
The people pulling the cart were two brothers, Li Lao Er and Li Lao San.
The floor and walls of the kitchen were almost ready. Next, we needed to build hidden cabinets next to the walls, as well as the wine cabinets and other furniture in the dining room, so the two brothers brought wood pieces over.
"I'm here to open the courtyard door for you." Seeing this, Yang Ruoqing quickly put the goose with its wings on the ground next to it, and quickly came over and opened the Luo family's courtyard door.
At this moment, a figure suddenly rushed over from the door of the four-bedroom courtyard next door on the left, and helped Yang Ruoqing push open another door of the Luo family's courtyard.
Yang Ruoqing took a look and saw that it was still He'er!
Looking at the clothes on her body, although there are no exaggerated colors, there are obvious traces of dressing up from her hair to the shoes on her feet.
When she came up, she opened the door for her. Yang Ruoqing straightened up and wanted to say thank you but didn't give her a chance.
why?
Because after she opened the door, she turned around and ran behind the Li brother's wooden cart. She bent down and helped Li Lao Er push the cart into the yard.
Li Laoer had already leaned down and grabbed both sides of the wooden cart with both hands. The wooden cart was about to use force to pull nearly three hundred kilograms of wooden piles into the yard.
Seeing He'er coming to help push the cart, Li Lao Er gathered his strength and turned to He'er and said, "Sister He'er, you don't need to push it. The third child will do it."
The terrain of the Luo family's yard is higher than the main road, and there is a gentle slope going up into the yard.
Unlike the Sun's house opposite, the fifth-bedroom apartment and the second-bedroom apartment are on a lower ground than the main road.
The low terrain was not very good. For example, when the water rose that year, the water in the pond spread out, did not cross the main road, and poured into the yard of Sun's house, which had five rooms and a small second room.
The third house, which was at the same height as the road, also suffered. Only the Luo family was safe. Even the accumulated water in the yard due to rain could be drained out of the sewer in the yard in time. This was the advantage of the terrain.
But the disadvantage is that it is a bit strenuous to pull a cart full of wooden piles into the yard like this.
But even if it took a lot of effort, Li Laoer didn't want to bother He'er pushing the cart.
However, He'er waved her hand towards Li Laoer and patted her chest. This was to tell Li Laoer that she could do it!
However, Li Laoer was still a little embarrassed and continued: "This is an uphill slope. I'm afraid that I will accidentally step back later and bump into you."
Li Laosan also helped to persuade He'er: "Sister He'er, we two brothers can do it. You don't have to work hard."
He'er is still very stubborn.
Yang Ruoqing secretly shook her head.
It is said that men like women and like to be courteous to women.
This woman likes men, too.
"He'er, everyone understands your kindness. Since the two brothers told you not to push back, just listen to them and don't do anything wrong when the time comes."
Hearing Yang Ruoqing's words, He'er's face was a little embarrassed, and then she stood aside in embarrassment.
Yang Ruoqing didn't bother to say anything to her. She picked up the wild geese on the ground, said hello to the Li brothers, and went straight to the pond at the entrance of the village.
When she came to the pond, Yang Huamei called her: "Qing'er, come here to wash."
Yang Ruoqing knew that she was here to kill and wash geese, and she had to take out a bunch of internal organs and pluck their feathers.
For people washing clothes, it was a bit polluted, so she consciously wanted to go to the other side.
This is also the tacit understanding formed by our children living together for generations.
Those who wash vegetables and fruits are upstream.
Those who wash clothes are in the middle reaches.
Washing fish and meat, rubbing pig intestines, etc., they all took the initiative to swim downstream.
So when Yang Ruoqing heard her aunt Yang Huamei shouting, she instinctively wanted to refuse, but found that the place where her aunt's voice came from happened to be downstream.
And my aunt's hands were busy scaling a big carp.
Not only was my aunt there, but my fourth aunt was squatting next to her.
The fourth aunt was eating melon seeds, and the melon seed shells were like flying catkins, spitting into the water beside her.
When Yang Huamei shouted to Yang Ruoqing, Mrs. Liu also turned to look over. When she saw Yang Ruoqing appearing, Ms. Liu's eyes lit up and she quickly waved to Yang Ruoqing.
"Qing'er come here to take a shower. I have company."
"coming."
Yang Ruoqing came to the two of them, and Mrs. Liu quickly stood up and gave up her position to Yang Ruoqing.
Seeing Yang Ruoqing carrying such a big goose, Liu almost salivated.
"Used to entertain the craftsmen at noon?" she asked.
"Um."
Yang Ruoqing put the goose in front of her and took out a dagger, scissors, a big bowl and other things from the basket she brought.
"Qing'er, you Luo family are really here to entertain the craftsmen with such a big goose." Yang Huamei stopped what she was doing and stared at the big goose in Yang Ruoqing's hand and sighed sincerely.
Yang Ruoqing smiled and said, "That's right. If people help us work, we must take good care of them."
"Besides, our family also needs to eat. How about you and me? How about everyone!"
In Yang Ruoqing's view, she was careful in other aspects of her business, but when it came to hiring craftsmen to work and buying food, she never counted small expenses.
A lot of money has been spent, and there is no point in thinking about eating and drinking.
Let the craftsmen be well fed and in a happy mood, and they will work harder for your family.
The craftsmen were unhappy and resentful. When they returned to work, they deliberately slacked off their work, pretended to be sloppy in some matters that were done by experts and laymen, or deliberately tried to get along with their masters. This was also very sad.
Therefore, those who do big things should not stick to trivial matters. They should grasp things closely but also let them loose.
"Auntie, your family's food is pretty good today. Doesn't such a big carp cost a lot of money?" Yang Ruoqing also asked with a smile.
My aunt Yang Huamei went to the town hospital to take care of her daughter-in-law Xu Qiaohong for several days recently.
Later, Xu Qiaohong turned the corner and returned to Changping Village. I heard that she had been lying on the bed in the house to recuperate her body for almost a month now.
