Chapter 52
Xu Muchian came to the main entrance of Yang's house and shouted, "Aunt Yang, are you at home? I'll return the bowl to you."
At this time, the Yang family was having dinner. Aunt Yang heard someone calling her, so she stood up and came to the door.
Seeing that it was Xu Muzhen, she said, "It's Mrs. Gu Sanniang. Have you eaten?"
"Well! I'm done eating. I'll return the bowl to you first and thank you for your help." Xu Muzhen said with a grateful face.
Even though they would be neighbors in the future, this was the first time they met, but they still enthusiastically lent her things and the kitchen.
"Thank you again, I will lend you the kitchen. You don't know how many times you have said this." Although Aunt Yang looked unhappy, she was still happy in her heart.
After all, who wouldn’t want to help someone and let her accept their love?
"I still have to thank you for helping our family so much." Xu Muzhen said very gratefully.
"You!" Aunt Yang looked helpless.
Xu Muxian suddenly remembered that she was short of a lot of things at home, but she didn't know where to buy them, so she said, "Auntie, I have something else to trouble you."
"What's the matter? Tell me, I will definitely help you if I can." Aunt Yang promised.
"We just came here and are not familiar with the place. We are short of many things at home. I would like to ask you where the market is or who has a master who can customize cabinets."
"Oh, you've got to ask the right person. I actually know a master who makes cabinets. His craftsmanship is quite good."
"Also, there will be one on the street tomorrow. This happens once every three days. The time you come here is also a coincidence."
"That's right!"
Xu Muchian made an appointment with Aunt Yang, and they would go shopping together at the market tomorrow morning.
By the way, go to a master who knows how to make furniture and order the things you want to use in advance.
Their cabinets and other items are all custom-made and are not available off-the-shelf for people to choose from.
Therefore, depending on the size of the item you want to order, you will have to wait at least three to five days.
Fortunately, Xu Maqian and the others are not in a hurry now, otherwise it would be inconvenient for them to do anything within three to five days.
In the evening, Xu Muzhen and his family stayed in the east room of the Wang brothers' house.
The mattress they used on the road could be used for one night.
After they all washed up and lay on the bed, Gu Huaijin was just about to talk to the lady sleeping beside him when he heard her even breathing.
Okay! She is asleep!
Originally, he thought that Xu Maqian must have a lot to say to him when his family finally settled down.
But I didn’t expect that it turned out to be just me overthinking it.
Gu Huaijin slowly approached Xu Muzhen, smelling the scent of jasmine in her hair, and suddenly felt that she was distracted.
But looking at Xu Muzhen who was already sleeping soundly, he couldn't bear to wake him up.
Forget it, she didn't get a good night's sleep along the way either.
It's the first time to settle down today, so I'd better let her go!
With this in mind, Gu Huaijin moved back silently. He didn't want to get too close to her, otherwise he would be the one who would suffer.
He was a person far away from Xu Maqian, but he didn't turn around. Although he couldn't hold her, he could still look at her.
Gu Huaijin looked at her profile, but after a while, she fell asleep in a daze.
When she woke up the next day, Xu Maqian was in Gu Huaijin's arms as expected.
Since the first time she woke up from Gu Huaijin's arms, Gu Zhao has never been able to sleep in the middle position between them.
Even if he was in the middle before going to bed, he would sleep next to me after waking up.
This often makes him wonder if he ran around while sleeping.
They had eaten something in the morning.
Everyone settled down to their duties, and Xu Muzhi and Aunt Yang went to the market together to buy some household firewood, rice, oil, salt and customized cabinets.
Gu Huaijin went to see the remaining ten households in their area to see if he could help find a few people to help him repair the house and Kang.
After all, the remaining ten households were in charge of them. If he didn't go to him about anything, he might think that they had renounced each other.
They don't want to stand in the same boat with him, although they really don't want to have anything to do with him, but there are always some favors that they still owe to him.
Taking Qiao or something like that will only make your family feel uncomfortable.
It is better to find someone to tidy up the house early, and they will be more comfortable earlier.
Gu Zhao and Wang Mingqing followed Wang Yuqing, doing some small work at home.
For example, clean up the weeds in the backyard and wipe the dust off the table.
Xu Muchian followed Aunt Yang to the street, and she was the first to buy a backpack.
There is no car or anything, so it is difficult to carry the things I bought. I have a backpack where I can put the small things I bought and carry them on my back, which frees up my hands.
She wants to buy everything she sees, but there is nothing she lacks at home.
However, I still pick up the most important ones and buy them now.
Quilt! This is very needed right now. The weather is about to get cold, and there is no way to keep out the cold just by relying on a mattress.
She went into the cloth shop, where they usually sell cloth.
Xu Muqian counted the number of people and found out that their family needed four quilts for a bed and a cover. For the Wang brothers, two quilts would be enough for the two of them.
As for the clothes, it was too late to buy fabrics and make them ready-made, and she didn't have time now.
She bought two sets for each of the five people, inside and out, according to the size of each person, including the same shoes and socks.
These cost her nearly ten taels of silver.
There are so many things, including quilts and so on.
Simply, the store can deliver it to your door if people buy a lot.
Xu Maqian gave their home address and then left the store with Aunt Yang.
At this moment, Aunt Yang was still a little stunned. She had not yet realized why Mrs. Gu Sanniang wanted to buy so many things.
This time it took several years of expenses elsewhere.
When she came to the grain and oil store, she even bought a lot. From grain to rice, from rice to oil, she bought double portions of everything.
The grain and oil store happily delivered these things to her home. This time it was quite good, and it cost a total of three taels of silver.
At this point, their food, accommodation and supplies are all ready.
There were also pots and pans, she bought them all!
Xu Maqian's move really frightened Aunt Yang.
She kept urging her to help negotiate the price, because she was afraid that Xu Muzhen would use up all the money she had.
This life will go on, and it is easy to spend money in Liaoning Wei, but it is extremely difficult to make money.
"Miss Gu Sanniang, you are so happy to spend money without blinking an eye." Aunt Yang was actually very envious in her heart.
When will she be able to spend her money as she pleases without having to worry about every purchase?
But thinking about the situation at home, she shook her head. Although her eldest son was married, she still had a younger son and daughter.
Even if you get married and have children from now on, don’t you still have to provide money to help you live your life?
They found Aunt Yang, a cabinet maker who knew how to make cabinets, and she told them the style they wanted and how much furniture they wanted in total.
They need cabinets, chopping boards in the kitchen, kang tables in the house, wardrobes, dining tables, benches and other odds and ends.
This time it took about three taels of silver, and they provided wood and made the finished product.
