Although Yu Xiaolian said so, Mrs. Sun still wanted to clean up the house in the second courtyard because the warehouse should also be clean.

Yu Xiaolian had no choice but to leave it to her, as her mother was somewhat mysophobic.

Everything went smoothly. By the time Yu Xiaolian finished laying the kang mat in the west room, Mrs. Sun had also wiped the three rooms in the second courtyard, and then started to sweep the dust in the warehouse with a broom.

In her mother's eyes, she really doesn't see anything dirty, and she is a hard-working person by nature.

Yu Xiaolian's body is inactive, but her soul is in turmoil.

Well, don't say I'm lazy, I'm just too busy to be obvious.

Yu Xiaolian slowly cleared out the garbage in the yard, and was just about to throw away the broken stools in the yard when Mrs. Sun hurriedly called her and told her to keep them for the fire, otherwise she would have to spend money to buy firewood.

Yu Xiaolian thought the same thing. This city is not as good as Hewan Village. You have to spend money to buy firewood.

Thinking about the firewood she worked so hard to collect in Hewan Village, it was really cheap for Mrs. Yu and the others.

After Mrs. Sun had finished cleaning the warehouse, Yu Xiaolian had also finished sweeping the yard. The two of them looked at each other and smiled, grinning endlessly.

"Mom, do you need to measure the size when buying a pot?"

"That's for sure. Mom has already taken the measurements. There is a big pot with eight seals in the east room and a small pot with six seals in the west room. They both need to be installed, one for cooking and one for cooking." Mrs. Sun thought about it and said, "How about that?"

You need to buy more charcoal and firewood. If you buy them temporarily, it will be inconvenient."

Yu Xiaolian nodded, indicating that he understood.

"Mom, our house is different from other people's houses. Everything in the house cannot be bought outside. During this period, we try to keep a distance from our neighbors. We can't let others come to our house as guests. You have to be cool when you go out on weekdays.

Please don’t interact with strangers.”

Mrs. Sun expressed her understanding, and then seeing that there was nothing else to do at home, she asked Yu Xiaolian to go out to buy pot with her.

"Oh, there is no rope. How can I carry it back? Is there a rope in your supermarket?"

Yu Xiaolian thought for a while, "It doesn't seem like it. It's okay, Mom, we just need to pay and let them help deliver it to the door."

If you are in a hurry, this is the only thing you can do.

After talking to Yu Changhe, Yu Xiaolian and Sun went to the street. The road in front of their door was a stone road, so it would be easier to push a cart or something in the future.

It is also only five minutes away from the lively market.

Since she was new to the ramp and couldn't find the blacksmith shop, Yu Xiaolian asked an egg seller to inquire about it.

"Go straight from here to the end and turn left. There is a blacksmith shop."

Following the path directed by the aunt, Sun and Yu Xiaolian easily found the blacksmith's shop, bought two pots at the blacksmith's shop, and asked the blacksmith about the carpenter's shop that made furniture.

I paid for the pot, left my address, and agreed with the blacksmith that I would send him home soon.

Sun and Yu Xiaolian came to the carpenter's shop again. The large wooden boxes and carved kang cabinets that Sun and the others usually used were readily available here.

But Yu Xiaolian wanted to make some different furniture, and the carpenter said that if she could draw the drawings, he could make it.

Yu Xiaolian borrowed the pen and ink of the carpenter's son and designed a kang cabinet with two rows of drawers below and two long cabinets with double doors above. The long cabinets should have crossbars for hanging clothes.

Draw another cabinet on the floor. This one is simpler. It just subverts the traditional upper door and turns it into rows of side doors. There should be several partitions inside each door to store different items.

Finally, Yu Xiaolian drew another bookshelf, which was also designed in a simple style.

"These things don't need to be carved. They just need to be polished and waxed for me."

Yu Xiaolian put down the brush and saw the carpenter looking at the drawing with a dumbfounded expression, thinking he couldn't do it, "Can't it be done?"

This is already the simplest style she chose to draw.

"We can do it, we can do it!" The carpenter held the drawings with excitement on his face, "You are an incredible little kid. You can draw drawings and you can draw them so well. This furniture will definitely be sold well."

"I only make furniture and don't sell drawings. If you want to make it like this and sell it to others, do you have to give me a cheaper price for the furniture I customized?"

The carpenter patted his chest generously, "Why is it cheap? As long as you keep this drawing, I will give it to you for free."

It was just a matter of a few wooden boards, and the wooden boards were not valuable. What was valuable was his craftsmanship.

With this drawing, are you still worried that his furniture will not be sold?

This novel style will definitely be liked by dignitaries and rich ladies.

This nobleman is in a circle. When the time comes, he will be passed on to ten, and from ten to a hundred, will he still worry about not getting any work?

When Yu Xiaolian heard that she was being offered for free, she was immediately overjoyed, "I also want two small Kang tables, a round dining table, four chairs and a bathtub."

"No problem." The carpenter said happily.

The goal is achieved and he returns home.

After Yu Xiaolian and Sun left, Carpenter Liu's apprentice said angrily, "Master, those two people are wearing rags. They don't necessarily have the money to make furniture. Did you ask that girl to do it?"

Deceived?"

The order was waived for just a few drawings, and so much was waived that the young apprentice felt that his master had been deceived.

Carpenter Liu was immersed in the joy of the new drawings. Why didn't he think that the cabinet could be made like this?

When the young apprentice saw that his master didn't listen to him at all, he pointed the hammer at a wooden board and started working with a clanking sound.

She thought that the furniture that was given to her for free must not be made of good wood, otherwise her master would be at a loss.

When passing through the market, she saw a firewood seller, and Yu Xiaolian stopped.

People selling firewood gathered together. Seeing that Sun and her daughter were not as well-dressed as they were, they had no intention of greeting them. They were still two skinny boys, so they asked Yu Xiaolian, "Would you like to buy firewood?"

"Buy, how much does it cost for a bundle?"

These two lanky little boys seemed to be about the same age as Yu Xiaolian and looked exactly the same. They should be twin brothers.

When the little boy saw that they were really buying firewood, he immediately became happy and said, "One bundle costs six cents, and two bundles cost ten cents."

Mr. Sun asked, "Is this car all yours?"

"Hmm." The two little heads nodded at the same time.

Yu Xiaolian glanced at Mrs. Sun, and the two of them reached an agreement with their eyes.

"I've got everything. Can you send me home?"

"Yes, yes." The two brothers smiled alike, feeling that they had met a good person today and no longer had to push a heavy diesel truck home like yesterday.

When Yu Xiaolian got home, the people from the blacksmith shop were knocking on her door. When they saw them coming back, they put the pot at the door and left.

Mrs. Sun moved the pot into the courtyard, and Yu Xiaolian took the twin brothers to the backyard.

They placed the firewood neatly in the corner, and then ran to Yu Xiaolian, "Sister, there are twenty bundles in total, one hundred cents."

Yu Xiaolian asked, "Do you come here to sell firewood every day?"

"Well, I come here every day recently." Because their mother is sick, they collect firewood every day to sell it.

"Do you know how to burn charcoal? My family still needs a lot of firewood and charcoal."

Daan and Xiaoan looked at each other, and then said in unison, "Yes, we can make charcoal."

"Then send another cart of firewood and another cart of charcoal, and these half a tael of silver will be used as a deposit."

Yu Xiaolian originally didn't want to buy so much firewood, after all, there were many firewood sellers, but just now she saw the two little ones were very serious about stacking the firewood neatly, and she couldn't help but feel good about them.

"Thank you, sister. Sister, you are such a good person. Then we will send you a load of firewood first tomorrow, and the charcoal will have to be sent later."

"Okay, don't worry. If the charcoal burns easily and there is no smoke, I will use your home charcoal from now on."

The winter in Da Liang is very cold, and the colder it gets as you go north. In winter, a charcoal fire is indispensable in the house. Of course, the more you save, the better.

The two little ones thanked Yu Xiaolian profusely and left happily.

Yu Xiaolian took another look at the neatly piled firewood, and praised the two little ones again in her heart.

What a great job!

After passing the stable, Dahong neighed at Yu Xiaolian, and then Yu Xiaolian realized that he didn't buy fodder for the horse or feed it water.

He took out a small plastic red bucket from the space, fetched a bucket of water from the well, and carried it to Dahong. When Dahong saw the water, he directly put the horse's head into the bucket and drank.

It seems that he is thirsty.

It’s so hot, how can you not be thirsty?
