Zhaodi is now becoming more and more skilled at making charcoal. The charcoal production rate of each furnace can be maintained at about 60% to 70%. The charcoal delivery work at the lower pavilion is now handled by Zhaodi every day. Basically, there are no mistakes in recruiting younger brothers.
And now there is a fierce man next to Zhaodi to help chop firewood. It takes 100 kilograms of charcoal to go down to the pavilion every day, and the firewood needed is at least 300 kilograms. Li Chuyi is also a diligent person, and it is better to chop good firewood every day than to burn charcoal. There is still plenty of firewood, so there is no need to worry about not having enough firewood after the charcoal is burned. There is even a lot of firewood left every day. The pile of firewood is getting taller day by day, and the thatched shed can hardly be piled up.
Zhaodi brought up the old matter again and said to Liang Chuan: "Third brother, you said you wanted to build a brick kiln, but why don't you see even a brick now? It's so cold today and I play in the mud every day. Look at my hands. After saying that, he really flashed his hand towards Liang Chuan and said miserably: "Even if you are doing manual labor nowadays, who else has rougher hands than me."
Liang Chuan took a look and saw that Zhaodi's hands were indeed very rough, and there were obviously a few cuts, but they were not as shocking as Li Chuyi's hands. He had never suffered much since he was a child, nor had he done anything. Heavy work, so even at Zhaodi's age, his hands are well maintained. Looking at Zhaodi's hands, Liang Chuan felt a little distressed and said, "Stop nagging about it, something happened a few days ago." It’s an accident, even if you don’t want me to think of a solution!”
Zhaodi is not an unreasonable and stalking person, but the feeling that Liang Chuan gives him now is different from before. In the past, Liang Chuan was also a piece of wood, he worked very hard, and his head definitely didn't have such a bright mind. Can't beat a fart.
Now Liang Chuan has even been to Xinghua Yamen in Dalao, Xinghua, and came back so quickly. Where is Xinghua Prison? Who of the people who went there came out well? The bosses in the county government are all great figures like gods. On weekdays, ordinary people don’t even dare to take a look at the atmosphere. How dare they go to the county Arguing in front of the master?
Besides, the third brother didn’t say that he couldn’t do it. Even if he couldn’t do it, he said he couldn’t do it. What he said was that he would think of a way and urge him to prevent his hands from suffering in the winter. Wouldn’t that be great? I’m honest. Not stupid.
Liang Chuan went to see the utility room where Zhaodi and Li Chuyi slept, which was also the woodshed. All the sundries in the woodshed have been moved out. The room is not big, but it is kept spotless. There are two wooden beds in the room. Next to the bed is a medium-sized clay pot with some charcoal in it. The ashes were probably used to burn charcoal for warmth at night. The sheets on the wooden bed were very thin, and the woodshed was empty with no other objects.
Liang Chuan sighed in his heart, there is still a place for this. In this era, there is no talk about human rights. Although the country's attention to the people is much better than that of other dynasties, the feudal era is the feudal era, and the rich are separated from their fields. , The poor have no place to stand, and they are no longer lucky to have a roof over their heads.
But this is unacceptable to Liang Chuan. His thinking is still strongly stuck in the universal view of later generations. Everyone is born equal. Why are you a king and me a slave? Why do some people's homes have so many carved beams and painted pillars that light can penetrate from all sides of their homes? .
In the evening, Yi Niang stewed dry rice, and then fried a plate of green vegetables. There was not even a drop of oil on the vegetables, but it went well with the fragrant rice. Normally, if you only eat rice, you would consider it a non-vegetarian meal. I still eat millet porridge most of the time. Maybe I’m back today and add another dish to celebrate.
Liang Chuan has already seen good wine and good food. The exquisite delicacies that Shitou's family ate in Xinghua Prison last time opened his eyes. In this world, you can't just eat rice and get away with it. Occasionally, you have to taste what you don't have. It tastes like I've eaten before.
Zhaodi and Li Chuyi also went into the room and sat at a table to eat together. Zhaodi had no resistance to what he was eating. Although it was white rice, he ate with gusto and wolfed down the plate of green vegetables. When the rice is all gone, I have to boil some more hot water in the pot, scrape the rice inside, make some soup, and drink it happily as soup.
Li Chuyi was much older and had seen the world. Naturally, he would not be as embarrassed as Zhao Di. He ate slowly and calmly, which was normal. However, he could not eat more than two of the dishes on the table. Three times, I ate my rice with chopsticks.
Liang Chuan had to eat a few mouthfuls of food with a mouthful of vegetables in between, and the same was true for his younger brother Zhao. Li Chuyi made the two of them look a bit like starving ghosts. At first, Liang Chuan thought Li Chuyi liked to serve, but when he thought about it carefully, he had this kind of personality, and he acted like a dick when chopping firewood. He also acted like a dick at the dinner table, and he probably also acted like a dick in the latrine.
Liang Chuan and others finished eating one after another, and Yi Niang was clearing the table. Liang Chuan gritted his teeth and looked at Yi Niang and said, "Yi Niang, next time you go to the countryside to buy vegetables and meat, don't be reluctant anymore and buy more meat. Food, look at it, there is just a plate of green vegetables on the table, there is not even a drop of oil, Old Li is too lazy to move his chopsticks, after all, Old Li is also a guest, this is not the way to treat guests, you know!"
Li Chuyi rolled his eyes at Liang Chuan. Without saying a word, he uttered one word from his nostrils: "Humph". He flicked his sleeves and walked out of the house and returned to the woodshed. When Zhaodi was about to leave, Liang Chuan said: "Zhaodi, when you go to the countryside, look around. If you see that kind of old water tank for sale somewhere, ask if it is for sale and buy one."
Brother Zhao knew what Liang Chuan was going to do again, and he was looking forward to it. He asked, "Don't you have a water tank at home? Do you want to buy another one?"
Liang Chuan said: "Strictly speaking, it's not a water tank, it's a sauce tank, that is, the old urn, preferably with a lid on it. I'm going to get some pickles. If there is no food in the future, pickles are good with rice."
Brother Zhao suddenly understood and said: "Oh, you are making pickles. Pickles are not delicious. My sister-in-law used to pickle them. Sometimes I secretly looked at her pickled pickles. They were all hairy and made me want to throw up. "
Liang Chuan said: "Your sister-in-law is as fat as a pig. She can make bullshit pickles. It's unappetizing to see her face, let alone eat her food. You just do as I say. That's enough. It's up to you whether you want to eat or not. Brother, I won't force you. Okay, go to bed quickly and don't stay here to get in the way." After saying that, Liang Chuan kicked Zhaodi out.
Yi Niang and Liang Chuan were the only ones left in the room.
After finishing the table, Yi Niang said to Liang Chuan: "Third brother, you go sit on the bed, and I'll get a basin of hot water for you to wash."
Yi Niang brought a basin of hot water, put Liang Chuan's feet into the basin, and gently kneaded Liang Chuan's feet with a pair of small hands. Liang Chuan looked at the little daughter-in-law affectionately, and did not say any disgusting words of love, just quietly. Enjoy this moment of peace.
"It's been hard on you these past few days..."
"Fortunately, I'm back. I didn't feel anything bad when I saw that you were fine. By the way, Yi Niang, where are the two big axes I bought last time? I'll find them later and put them on the bedside. They may be It’s going to come in handy.”
"The two axes have been resting beside the stove. They are too heavy for Lao Li to use. Are you going to the mountains to collect firewood these days? Lao Li has chopped enough in the past two days, so you should rest first. Two days, maybe.”
"I don't collect firewood, and I've offended a lot of people these days. Someone reminded me that it's better to be vigilant."
Liang Chuan's speech was so confusing that Yi Niang couldn't understand it at all. After Yi Niang helped Liang Chuan wash up, she moved the ax next to the stove to the bedside as Liang Chuan said, so that she could reach the ax by turning over.
Liang Chuan spread out the quilt and got in first. After sleeping in Xinghua Prison, even this hard bed felt extraordinarily warm and comfortable. Liang Chuan rested his arms on the bed, lying on his back, urging Yi Niang why she hadn't finished her work yet, and the quilt was warm. , why don’t you go to bed and rest. After Yi Niang poured out the water, she scooped some water from the water tank and added it to the boiling pot. She stuffed a few pieces of wood into the stove. It looked like it should be enough to burn for one night. The charcoal in the brazier was also lit. I took off my clothes, finally blew out the oil lamp, and crept into bed.
As soon as Yi Niang went to bed, Liang Chuan hugged her over and pressed her tightly against his chest. Liang Chuan could feel Yi Niang's breathing becoming increasingly rapid. Since Liang Chuan's wolfish demands a few days ago, Yi Niang had completely changed from a girl to a woman. Now that Liang Chuan behaves like this, she will never do it again. As scared as I was last time, I was even more hopeful.
Liang Chuan's big hands hugged Yi Niang tightly from behind. Yi Niang curled up in Liang Chuan's arms with a red face like a little quail. After hugging her for a while, Liang Chuan's hands began to move up and down slowly. Li Li gently stroked Yi Niang's back and torso. After a few strokes, Liang Chuan could feel the warmth transmitted from Yi Niang's delicate body. Liang Chuan felt so excited that he couldn't bear it, and he kept making heavy breathing sounds from his mouth. , Yi Niang's face flushed, and her body trembled accordingly when she touched it, like tofu cooked with brine. This arrogant tremor made Liang Chuan feel like pine oil dripping on a burning fire. With a chirp, the fire exploded. Come.
Liang Chuan couldn't hold it back any longer, and his impulsive flames were fueled by the firewood. His big hand had already pounced on Yi Niang's little white rabbit, and the iron rod below was pressed tightly against Yi Niang, ready to drive the man's penis. Power, capture cities and territories. At this critical moment of spring night, there was suddenly a sound of footsteps outside the house, and from time to time there was the sound of moving firewood.
Liang Chuan's nerves have been on edge these past few days. As soon as he said Cao Cao, Cao Cao was here!
"Yi Niang, put on your clothes quickly!"
As soon as Liang Chuan's words came out, Black Bi immediately started barking outside the house, and a strange voice shouted: "The second boss is not good!" Another voice responded: "They have been discovered! Guys, please be quick and send them on their way! "
Before he finished speaking, he saw bright red firelight coming through the paper window. Along with the firelight, another minion shouted: "There are two of the second masters here..."
The gangster who hurriedly reported the news was kicked away before he could finish his sentence. He let out a scream in his throat, and there was no other sound. The outside of the house turned into a mess.
