"Sew a pocket and grab a galaha. This is the cloth that my mother and I want to make. It's hard to make it out." Yumei muttered. At this time, housewives usually regard the cloth head as important. You should know that this is a good thing for patching. If you have a skilled woman, you can use a very small rag to make a small mattress or mattress noodles. Where can I bear to play with the child?

"Just be content. I don't know why my aunt feels sorry for this little cloth. These are all good things, so I let you play with them." Jinghan joked with Yumei.

"By the way, Jinghan, can we pick dates in a few days? People come to collect them every year. I heard that they are going to make wine, which can be sold for three cents per pound, and it costs as much as you can. We will go to pick monkey legs and it is almost ripe." Yumei remembered this and quickly told Jinghan.

Jinghan was quite happy to hear this. It is of course a good thing to make money. "So, then we will come over and see one day. Do we have to wait until we collect it before we can pick it up?"

"Well, it's almost done. I heard from my elder brother that those people should come at this time of year." Yumei nodded.

Jinghan sat in the Lin family for a while, and decided with Yumei to pick dates, and then went home. Xue was cooking at home, so Jinghan quickly stepped forward to help. "Mom, it seems that you are not cooking today?"

"Your second aunt is out again. At this time, you can't just wait for her. Just make the rice quickly." Xue was busy in front of the pot.

Chen also came over, "This second wife, she doesn't know what she wants to do this day, and she doesn't come back to cook the meal." As she said, she picked up the cakes from another pot.

The meal was all done and the table was placed outside. Zhixin and the old man came back from the field and everyone had dinner together. Before lunch could be finished, a woman came in outside, about the same age as Xue, "Uncle Xu, aunt, brother Xu, sister-in-law, you are all here."

"It's Shitou's wife. Come and sit here. Have you eaten? Let's have some food together." Chen quickly asked everyone to sit down.

"Aunt, you don't have to work anymore. I've had dinner. Today I came here to ask Brother Xu if he has had time in the past few days. My family wants to build a house and want to ask Brother to help with the work for a few days. And my sister-in-law, can I help with the cooking?" Shitou's wife is the second daughter-in-law of the Wang family in Dongtou.

"Your family wants to build a house? Don't you have a house to live in?" Chen asked in confusion.

"We just separated, and my elder brother and his parents lived with us. We came out to build another house. We had already chosen the place, and we just waited for enough staff to start construction. Isn't we here to ask my brother and sister-in-law for help?" said Shi Tou's wife.

"It's okay to split up. You can live your own life and live whatever you want. There is no big work these days, so let Zhixin go and help you for a few days. The eldest daughter-in-law, you can also go and help. Your food is well cooked, and you can't take care of anyone in this village." The old man agreed after hearing this.

"Thank you, Uncle Xu, then I'll go back first. There is still a lot of work at home." Shi Tou's wife left after she said that.

"This stone couple is a good person. If you split up, you will definitely live a good life in the future. I don't want his boss to be lazy all day long. Look, when the old couple regret it in the future." Chen said. "So, we have to help you with this, Merrill, just go and cook for her house for a few days. I'm at home. Besides, Jingya and Huixin can also help you, it's nothing."

After everyone finished their meal, they packed the table together. Zhixin and the old man went back to the house to lie down for a while, and then went to the ground to work after the sun was not so poisonous. Xue and Jingya were doing needlework in the house. Jinghan had nothing to do, so he lay down and slept for a while.

The next day, Zhixin and his wife went to Wang's house to help. Jinghan was so idle that she fed all the pigs and chickens at home, she also went to see others build houses. It turned out that the houses here were usually adobe, but Shi Tou's family did not prepare adobe, so they had to ramm the house with loess. Patch it up with wooden boards, then pour grassy loess into it, and then smash it down with wood. The more honest the better. When all the soil on this layer is smashed, the wooden boards are removed and the soil is smashed up. In this way, a layer of mud is enough to apply mud outside the smashed wall. Of course, there are many pillars in the wall, otherwise it would not work at all.

The Shitou family's house was built very quickly, and it took about five or six days to smash the walls. The carpenter had already made the beams and snatched them on the other day, so he chose a day to go up. On the day of the beams, in addition to the original help, many people came. Everyone started to work together and quickly put the beams on the top of the house. Someone tied a red cloth with copper coins on the beams. When the time came, someone lit a firecracker that had been hung long ago. Someone sprinkled candy down. At this time, all the children went up to grab the candy. Jinghan was very strong and pushed the boy in front of him away and picked up two pieces of candy. He put one in his mouth, the other was kept, and Wenxuan also grabbed two pieces of them. He ate one, and the other was reluctant to eat, so he put it in his pocket.

After watching the fun, the brother and brother went home together. When they arrived at home, Jinghan gave her piece to Jingya. Jingya didn't want it, and gave it to Wenxuan again. "Sister, just eat it, I still have one." Wenxuan stuffed the candy into Jingya's mouth, and Jingya then ate it.

After getting to the beam, there was not much left. Shitou was able to do it slowly, so he didn't have to help anymore. When Xue came home, she remembered that she was going to the town to visit the doctor. So one morning, she went to the town with a few women from the village.

Jinghan didn't care about those, she only knew that the one who collected the dates was coming, and this year it was still three cents per pound. This was not low, so many children in the village went to pick the dates.

As the name suggests, this jujube is going to grow in the jujube. The place where I went to pick monkey legs last time was a big jujube. Everyone went there to pick jujube. When they got there, they saw that the small trees that were not very tall were full of blue and purple fruits. This was the jujube. Everyone carried the basket and quickly found a tree to pick it. The jujube was dark purple, and the flesh was full of purple juice. This thing was sour and sweet, and it was always the favorite of children. While picking it, it was put in a few in the mouth. Without biting it hard, just suck it gently with your tongue. The sour and sweet juice inside came out, with a little bitter taste, which tasted very good. However, eating too much of this thing can easily dye the tongue purple-black.

The fruits of this jujube are not big, probably as long as the little fingers of people, which are thinner than the little fingers, and it is not easy to pick them. People who collect them said that there should be no green fruits, no branches, leaves, etc., so you should be more careful. Fortunately, there are many jujube trees here, so everyone can pick six or seven kilograms at noon. They all came out with dry food on their backs and down, so they didn't want to waste time back and forth, so at noon, everyone found a place to sit down and eat together. When they opened the cloth bag, it was nothing more than a piece of cake and a few pickles. Today, Jinghan and Wenchang and Wenxuan came, and their family brought them some dried fish. The crispy fried in oil made them taste very fragrant.

Jinghan took a few dried fish and gave it to Yumei, "Sister Yumei, try it." Yumei was not polite, took it and put it in her mouth, chewed it, "Well, it smells so good." As she said that, she gave the rest to his younger disciple Ziwen.

After eating, everyone started working again. It was not until the end of the morning, and everyone stopped. Everyone picked a lot. Everyone walked out of the meadow with baskets and walked to the middle of the village, where someone was waiting to collect it. When they arrived, the people who collected the dates had already waited, weighed them one by one, and then calculated the money. Jinghan picked twelve kilograms and got thirty-six cents. Wenchang picked less, eight kilograms and nine kilograms of Wenxuan, and all calculated the money. Everyone was very happy and walked home with a smile.

When he arrived at home, Xue happened to talk to Chen about the doctor in Renjitang. "Mom, that doctor is really good. I also asked. His family is in the town. Tao is the second child in the family. The eldest brother has become a relative and has lived with them. There is also a younger brother in the family studying and a younger sister. The parents at home are not old. Lao Tao is a craftsman, a carpenter, and he earns a lot in a year, so the family is still alright. But that mother is a little tricky. If Huixin marrys her, she may not be able to get along well with her." This was what Xue asked for inquiry at midday.

Chen thought for a while, "This family is pretty good, but the old lady is a little unhappy, and it's nothing. Just give in and have a little more. The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law get along better and better. Let's do this, that day I told Qian matchmaker that we will agree to this marriage. If Huixin's marriage is settled, I will let go of my heart." Chen decided to make this marriage.

Just as Jinghan and the others returned home, "Grandma, mom, we are back. Wenxuan and I have earned 60 cents today." Jinghan started to show off as soon as she entered the house.

"Okay, that's great. If you can buy three kilograms of meat, our children are capable." Chen was also very happy. Although the children did not hand over the money to her, they were still in this family after all, they didn't go out. "Put the money well, keep some food and use it. Don't spend it randomly." Chen reminded.

"Oh, grandma, don't worry, we won't spend time. Mom, are you free tomorrow? Let's go together." Jinghan wanted her mother to go too.

"Okay, I'll have nothing to do tomorrow, so I'll go with you." Xue agreed happily.

Wenchang, who was standing beside him, "Grandma, why has my mother never accompanied us to go up the mountain?" As he said that, tears fell down. Chen looked at it and hurriedly picked up Wenchang, "Be good to Wenchang, grandma will accompany you tomorrow."
