Chapter 60 The old man is here again
I didn’t have money before, so I didn’t think so much. Now I have a lot of money on hand and can make something.
After measuring behind him, Li Hongxiang went back to the house to make clothes and uppers.
I got back after pulling two pieces of cloth, but I didn't dare to do it in the yard. Although his family lives at the end of the village and there is no one passing by, if I am seen, others might be jealous.
So, it is best to do this in the house. It will be broad in the daytime and the house will be bright and will not hurt your eyes.
In the yard, Su Jinse and Zhang Zhiwen changed the remaining snail lion water, and there were still a lot left. They kept it slowly and could have two more meals.
Zhang Zhiqiang imitated his father and moved a small stool and sat next to him weaving straw sandals. Zhang Yuxiu went into the house to help his mother make clothes.
At this time, a head was poked out outside the courtyard wall, "Iron Pillar, I heard that you went to the county yesterday and brought a lot of things back?"
Zhang Tiezhu paused his hands with straw sandals and looked up. He saw that it was Zhang Dashuan from the next door. So he nodded: "Yes, I went up the mountain the day before yesterday to catch some prey. I bought some prey yesterday. I sold it in the county town yesterday. I didn't have any food at home, so I bought some food and came back."
Although I came back a little late last night, some people from the village could not help but see it, so Zhang Tiezhu didn't intend to hide it from it.
"Oh, did you hunt prey on the mountain the day before yesterday?" Zhang Dashuan's eyes lit up. No wonder he could always smell the fragrance coming from here next door, which made him greedy.
"I'm lucky. I got a few hares, except for my own home, I left half of them to the old house, and sent the other half to the old house. The rest were sold for money and exchanged for food, otherwise I would have lost all this winter." Zhang Tiezhu said with a smile.
He didn't dare to tell the truth, but he was ignorant. He had suffered a lot of grievances in the old house over the years, which made him understand that the benefits should not be widely publicized, and he had to be low-key.
Zhang Dashuan left in disappointment after hearing this.
Zhang Dashuan lives in the last family at the end of the village. He is in his thirties and is still a bachelor. Because his family is too poor, he can't get married.
His parents had passed away long ago, and his elder brother and sister-in-law couldn't take care of his family, so how could he take care of him? Zhang Dashuan was fed alone and his whole family was not hungry.
As soon as Zhang Dashuan left, Zhang Tiezhu saw his mother, sister-in-law and third sister-in-law coming. He hurriedly threw down the work in his hand, stood up and limped over, "Mom, sister-in-law, why are you here?"
Jiang Yumei looked at her son with a kind smile on her face: "Zhu, did you come back from the county last night?"
When Zhang Tiezhu heard this, he didn't understand anything, so he said, "I've been there..."
"I heard that you have picked up a few large bags of things and bought what have you bought?" Jiang Yumei said as she looked into the house.
Li Hongxiang, who was originally cutting cloth in the room, heard the movement in the yard and Jiang Yumei's voice, and hurriedly hid the new cloth in the cabinet. If the mother-in-law saw it, she might not be able to keep a piece of cloth.
She still has to keep it to make clothes for her children.
"Mom, I didn't buy anything, I just came back with some food." Zhang Tiezhu was not good at lying and said with a stiff expression.
Sister-in-law Yu Laidi is a personal sensual. She knew at a glance that the fourth brother was not telling the truth, so she snorted: "Fourth brother, last night, the villagers saw you picking up a few big bags of things and came back, but there was more than just food."
The third sister-in-law Cheng Wenying is an honest and honest person. She has not spoken after she came. Her mother-in-law and sister-in-law insist on her coming with her. If she doesn't follow, she might be beaten and scolded.
