Chapter 4886 Send charcoal in the snow
Yang Huazhong braved the wind and snow and returned home. The main hall was as warm as spring.
In addition to the warm buckets that can be sat in, there are also several charcoal braziers in the house.
The charcoal in these charcoal fired basins was the sootless carbon I bought in the county town just before the twelfth lunar month.
The price of a pound of smokeless carbon is more expensive than a pound of pork. In the town, only rich families can afford it. Not everyone in the family can cook it, depending on the status and portion of the family.
However, Yang Huazhong's family began to burn this kind of charcoal many years ago in winter. The reason is that their children have a promising future.
"Sent to the fourth place? How are they?" Sun came over, holding a feather duster in his hand, helping Yang Huazhong brush the snowflakes on his shoulders down, and asked.
Yang Huazhong told the situation there truthfully.
"It fell? Alas, I see Xiaojuan's body is also weak. I guess she has never done any hard work before." Sun said.
Yang Huazhong said: "Before I came back with the fourth child, she was the maid who raised the family in Yuncheng and the kind of child he gave birth to."
When Xiaohua, who was holding Feng'er in the warm bucket next to him, could not help but say, "When I was in the capital, I saw the maids of those wealthy families. Although they were servants serving people in the mansion, the food and clothing cost outside was not necessarily comparable to the ladies of the town's servants' family."
"Does my father still remember Xiaohuan?"
"Xiao Huan? Is it Zhou Wang's wife?" Sun asked.
Xiaohua nodded.
"Xiao Huan was brought back from the capital. Xiao Huan is a son of the Xiangyang Prince's Mansion in the capital. We have also seen the educative and demeanor of the maids who came out of the palace? When I was walking with Zhou Xia, it sounded bad. Xiao Huan's temperament was ten streets higher than Zhou Xia. However, Zhou Xia's appearance was better than Xiao Huan, and she was able to pretend to be weak and deliberately suppress Xiao Huan, so Zhou Xia became the focus everywhere, and Xiao Huan became a foil."
"At that time, Xiao Huan learned needlework from Sister Ping'er at her sister's house. We all learned together. Xiao Huan's finger was sticking out, tsk, it was really like a scallion, but now it has changed. Raising chickens and ducks, and pulling two sons, Xiao Huan has long become a completely rural woman, but this is also great, at least she lives a solid life and has hope."
No matter how good your life is in the mansion, you are a servant after all. The servant is not a human being, but only a product, and the owner can buy and sell it freely.
Xiaohua was glad that she had not fallen into that kind of field. God favored her and let her meet such a good adoptive parents and marry the top scholar.
"So, Aunt Xiaojuan, now she has to take care of the children of the family and He Yatou. She must be in a hurry, otherwise how could she break her waist if she falls in the snow?"
Xiaohua said again, the snow is not like the ice surface. The snow is soft and it doesn’t hurt much when it falls. It must have been twisted before. Now I fell again, and it was touched.
Yang Huazhong said: "When I was there, she came out to meet her. I glanced at her face and she looked very bad."
"The house is also cold. Although we helped repair it some time ago, the house will not leak air, but it is cold, and the corners are cold."
"The charcoal fire brazier they have is a bit of bad charcoal. It's just that the charcoal is not resistant to burning, but the smoke in the room is full of smoke. I've been choking. I can't sit there for a while and my eyes feel uncomfortable." He said.
Sun looked at Yang Huazhong's eyes and said, "No wonder I saw that your eyes were red as soon as you entered the house. I thought that what happened to you? It turned out to be smoked."
"You'll be so fumigated after sitting for a while. The Sanya and the others don't know what to do. If it's not possible, let's send them some charcoal!"
Yang Huazhong thought for a while and nodded: "How many kinds of charcoal do we have in our family?"
Sun said: "Two kinds, one is smokeless carbon, and the other is a little smoke, but it is very resistant to burning."
Yang Huazhong said: "Press them both, weigh them more if they are resistant to burning."
Burning charcoal means burning money. Smokeless carbon is too expensive. Sometimes Yang Huazhong feels sorry for burning it at home. Unless the children are there, he will burn it with a little cigarette if the children are not around.
...
"Dad, the charcoal is about to be burned, what should I do?"
Yang Huaming was cooking venison for the children in the kitchen when he suddenly heard the voice of Sanyatou.
He hurried to the main hall and saw the San Yatou squatting beside the charcoal basin, holding an empty bag with the bottom in his hand, and fragments of carbon ash fell on her feet.
"Why did it disappear so soon? Didn't it seem like two pounds when the fire was started last night?" Yang Huaming was surprised. He took the bag from Sanyato's hand and turned it over to look for it. He really saw the bottom of it.
The third girl said: "The two younger brothers woke up from the cold in the middle of the night last night, and Aunt Xiaojuan took the charcoal to burn it to warm it up in the house!"
"I got my shoes wet when I was having a snowball fight just now, and now I can't bake it anymore. Two pairs of shoes are also trendy. I sent him to the bed and quilt before, and I was still barefoot. Why did you do anything to my father?"
Yang Huaming doesn’t know what to do!
He looked at the snow outside. It seemed that the snow would not stop until three days and three nights. Go to the town to buy it?
Not to mention that these dozens of miles are difficult to walk, even if I finally arrived in the town, I guess the shop was not open.
If it really doesn't work, go to the entrance of the village to borrow some from my third brother and sister-in-law?
"San girl, don't worry, dad, come and think of a way. In this way, you can take Tiedan's shoes to the stove first..."
The third girl has always been a quiet and obedient girl. Liu left her aside and ignored her child when she gave birth to a child. The third girl was taken care of by Juer at the beginning. If the older Liu gave birth to a boy Kang, he would not care about it. The third girl took care of Kang.
Including now, she is taking care of her half-brother Tiedan.
Although I am not close to Xiaojuan, I still like Tiedan and Sanyatou.
Hearing Yang Huaming's orders, the third girl quickly got up and went to the kitchen. As soon as she left the door, she suddenly shouted in surprise: "Uncle San!"
"Is your father in the house?" Yang Huazhong was asking the three girls outside the door.
Before the Sanya responded, Yang Huaming in the room quickly stood up and responded loudly: "San brother, I'm here, I'm in the room!"
"Three pounds of smokeless carbon, six pounds of charcoal, you can use it first."
Yang Huazhong threw a cloth bag into Yang Huaming's hand, "Your third sister-in-law also had two pairs of dog skin plasters in oil paper, and asked you to paste it to Xiaojuan. The things are delivered. You will continue to be busy, and I'll leave first!"
Yang Huazhong's figure quickly disappeared.
Yang Huaming held the charcoal in his hands and his eyes turned red.
"Dad, what's wrong with you? Why are you crying?" asked the third girl curiously.
Yang Huaming hugged the cloth bag containing charcoal in his arms and murmured: "Your father, I really want to cry. Third girl, you are married in the future. You can be unfilial to my biological father, and you must also remember to repay your third uncle and third mother's kindness. What is a timely help? That's it!"
