Chapter 44 New Residence

PreviousBack to directoryNext
The house with two entrances is divided into a front yard and a backyard.

The wall is a masonry structure and is very solid. The house is similar to most houses in Mayi. It is rough and tall. It is neither new nor old. It looks like it can last for many years.

The room was too much for Li Po and Li Chun, so naturally there was no need to live in one room.

It's just that the house is too big, so it seems empty when two people live in it...and there are not many traces left by the previous owner. There are not many furnishings and appliances, so they need to buy them by themselves.

Of course, the thing that satisfied Li Po the most was the kitchen. The house was big, so it had the advantage of having a proper kitchen. The previous owner of this house had two kitchens, one large and one small.

Obviously, the large stove is for the servants, while the master undoubtedly uses a small stove.

The cooking utensils in the kitchen are all ready, which he and Li Chun got these days. Although they are not old and do not look like they have moved to a new house, they are cheap and complete.

And Li Po also thought about finding a blacksmith, making an iron pot, and always eating steamed food. Although it was delicious, cooking was actually more convenient, faster and had more tricks.

In fact, the whole family has their own plans for their new homes.

Li Chun planned to plant some grains and vegetables in the yard. Of course, it might be better to plant some flowers and plants to embellish it, but the two guys who had just escaped from abject poverty were not that leisurely and elegant. They only cared about food, clothing, housing and transportation.

Busy work.

Li Chun also plans to raise some chickens and ducks to lay eggs for food.

Li Po agreed with this idea. Chickens and ducks can not only lay eggs, but also eat meat. He didn't care about the messy rules of the times. When chickens and ducks are cooked well, they are definitely the top delicacies among meats.

Of course, pork, which was despised by people at the time, was also ranked high in Li Po's recipe.

However, Li Po had been eating cattle and sheep for many years, and he really didn't know if he would vomit it out if he smelled the smell of pork. At that time, he heard people say that people who don't eat pork will eat pork if they smell it.

The smell is fishy, ​​just as Han people can easily smell the smell of other people or food.

When the two guys moved into their new house, the first thing they did was think about food. It has to be said that it is not like a family does not stay at home...

Of course, in addition to food and drink, Li Po was also thinking about opening a heating channel.

After being frozen for half the winter, he had finally tasted the cold. The matter of keeping warm was also a big deal in his heart.

With the heating system, the heated kang, and the stove, no matter how cold the winter is, you won't have to worry about freezing.

This project is quite big and still needs his efforts.

The two rooms are next to each other. Naturally, they are both the main rooms with excellent lighting. The bedding and other items are all purchased, and the clothes on their bodies are all new. It can be said that, just like life, both guys have a brand new look.

.

Walking in Mayi City, no one would be able to tell that these two people were refugees before.

Living in such a big house, servants are indispensable.

This is the area where serious wealthy people live in Mayi City. Most of the surrounding areas are the houses of county officials. The officials are not big, but they all have their own pomp.

If you want to live in harmony with your neighbors, if you don't pay attention to it, you won't be able to integrate into the surrounding environment.

However, both of them didn't care about this. They had just escaped from the miserable life and couldn't pay attention to it at all. They didn't want to have too much contact with the people around them for the time being.

There are indeed lonely and helpless men and women among the refugees, and they are all willing to be slaves as long as Li Po opens his mouth.

But Li Po didn't bring any of them because he had more on his mind.

If you want to have a better life, you need to completely cut off the refugee segment.

Even if you can't cut him clean, you should try to stay away as much as possible. This is where he is ruthless and indifferent, but also reveals some wisdom and foresight...

Whether others know about his past is their business, but if you understand the truth and don't do it, then you are stupid.

After moving into their new home, they were not happy for a long time. Both of them felt a little empty. This was the result of confusion about their future.

In the evening, Li Po called Li Chun to him and asked, "Do you want to go to the county mansion with me to work, or should you stay at home?"

This child is extremely talented. He has endured a lot of hardships at a young age. If you stay by his side, within a few years, he will be able to cultivate an outstanding warrior, and he may even become a better warrior in the future.

But unfortunately... the boy turned into a girl, which made Li Po quite confused, so on this day, he simply gave the multiple-choice question to Li Chun himself.

Going to the county with him naturally means that she will learn things that other women cannot, and her future life will definitely be different from those of other women. It is difficult to tell the gains and losses clearly. Otherwise, Li Po

I won’t dump this burden on Li Chun.

But if you stay at home, it will be much simpler. The male will lead the family and the female will lead the family. All you have to do is find a husband and marry her in the future.

Li Chun's answer was actually within Li Po's expectation. The child raised his head without hesitation, "Of course I will follow my elder brother. What are we doing at home? The house can't be run away. Tomorrow, Xiaochun will go to the market."

, let them get some dogs to look after our home and our home."

She thought it through quite well.

Li Po rubbed her head and said with a smile: "Don't regret it in the future... Well, the county government is not as good as the city. There may not be any vicious dogs, but there are many evil people. When we first opened the store, I and others

Do you remember what they said?"

Like a kitten, Li Chun rubbed against Li Po's palm, narrowed his eyes comfortably, and then thought for a moment, then said: "Remember... lower your head to eat, raise your head to look at the road, do more and less."

Said, eldest brother doesn’t want to listen to those parents who are short-sighted..."

"Well, just remember. When you get to the county government, you have to abide by other people's rules... People who work hard and talk less will always be more likable."

Li Chun was a little worried. She was sold to a wealthy family since she was a child, and she had psychological shadow. "Brother, when we go there, will someone beat us for no reason?"

Li Po pursed his lips, "This damn kid always wants to be bad if you don't want to be good. It's your fault if you get beaten."

Feeling dissatisfied, he couldn't help but threaten: "It's not impossible for someone to bully us when we are new here. How about... you stay at home?"

"No way, no way." Li Chun's head suddenly shook like a rattle.

"Then what if someone hits us?"

"Just do whatever big brother says."

"There are big shots in the county, so we can only fight. We can only endure it. Do you want to go?"

"go."

"Haha, as the old saying goes, one can become a great person only by suffering the most hardships. If we can't bear even this little hardship, let's leave the city and go into the mountains as soon as possible. We can still be at ease, don't you think?"

"What brother said is really good...but...we have suffered a lot."

Li Po, "......"
