Buying things
Tong Meifang was indignant when she heard this: "Who are these people? You can't eat anything even if you have a tiger poison. Your father is simply a beast."
Ye Tan nodded in her heart, but she was just an animal, no, she was not as good as an animal.
"Your stepmother is not a thing, she is too dark." Tong Meifang was obviously angry: "And I don't think your stepmother is good either."
"Fortunately, I'm here now. After so many things, I have figured it out. Some people's hearts are not warm no matter how much they cover them. I might as well take good care of myself so that I will never be bullied again." Ye Tan pursed her lips and looked strong.
"Yes, it's right for you to think so!" Tong Meifang slapped her hands and said to Ye Tan: "Ye Tan, I tell you that you have to stand up as a human being. You can't be bullied no matter what suffering you suffer. If anyone bullies you, you can beat you back. Don't worry, in our village, as long as you are right, you don't have to be afraid. If there is anything, I will still be there." Tong Meifang obviously pity Ye Tan's previous experience, and seeing that Ye Tan is a polite and knows how to advance and retreat, she unconsciously wants to protect Ye Tan.
"Thank you, Aunt Zhou, I'll listen to you." Ye Tan nodded like pounding garlic, his eyes were shiny, and Tong Meifang felt even soft-hearted.
"Don't be timid when encountering problems. Some people just bully the weak and fear the strong."
"Um."
Tuanzi said oh, "Host, you did it on purpose, you are selling miserable."
Ye Tan blinked his eyes.
Ye Tan and Tong Meifang were talking and soon arrived outside the gate of Liu Wooden Army's house.
"Lotus." Tong Meifang smiled and shouted at a woman who was sweeping the floor in the yard.
When Ding Hehua heard the sound, she looked up and saw that it was Tong Meifang. She smiled and said, "Yeah, Meifang, why are you here?"
As he said that, Ding Hehua put down the broom and hurriedly stepped forward to open the yard gate. Obviously, the two had a good relationship.
When Ding Hehua saw Ye Tan beside Tong Meifang, he didn't recognize him: "Who is this?"
Tong Meifang smiled and patted Ye Tan on the shoulder, and said to Ye Tan: "This is Carpenter Liu's wife. Just call Aunt Hehua."
Ye Tan hurriedly smiled and called Aunt Lotus.
Tong Meifang smiled and said to Ding Hehua: "Hehua, this is Ye Tan, the new educated youth. She wants to find you bosses to make some kang tables and boxes. She exchanges things for them. Do you see if it's convenient?"
Ding Hehua smiled and said, "It's convenient, why is it inconvenient? Wait, I'll call my family."
As he said that, he let Tong Meifang and Ye Tan into the room, poured another glass of sugar water for the two of them, and went to the backyard.
Tong Meifang said to Ye Tan: "What Carpenter Liu likes most every day is to make things in the backyard. People must be in the backyard now."
Ye Tan nodded with a smile.
After a while, Ding Hehua entered the house with a honest middle-aged man. Ding Hehua smiled and said to Ye Tan, "Ye Zhiqing, this is my leader. Just call Uncle Liu. Look at what you want and just tell him."
Ye Tan hurriedly smiled and said to Carpenter Liu, "Uncle Liu, I'm a newcomer and I don't have many items. If possible, I want to buy a complete set of items here."
Carpenter Liu had heard Ding Hehua say, so he nodded and said, "Okay, come with me to the backyard. I have some ready-made ones here. See if it's enough. If there is something missing, I'll call you."
"Okay." Ye Tan responded quickly.
The group of four went to the backyard. Tong Meifang whispered to Ye Tan: "If you go back and build your own house, you still need a kang table, and you must not miss a box for quilts and clothes. There are also the items in the kitchen. In addition, if you have plenty of money, there are wooden barrels, tables, chairs, stools, etc., it is best to buy them neatly."
Tong Meifang said exactly what Ye Tan meant. If nothing unexpected happened, she would have to live here for at least two or three years, and it would be convenient for both of them.
When he arrived at the backyard, Carpenter Liu opened a room and said, "Look at what you want."
Ye Tan went into the room and found that it was very complete. From the kang tables and boxes to the rolling pins and wooden chopsticks, there were everything. Ye Tan was not polite, and chose all the things he thought he could use. He also asked for a large bamboo basket and a bamboo basket woven by Carpenter Liu. Finally, he calculated that these things cost about ten yuan. Because it was not easy to trade them directly with money, Ye Tan finally replaced them with cloth and brown sugar, and added some cloth coupons.
After this, both parties were quite satisfied. Even Carpenter Liu felt that he had taken advantage of it and was quite embarrassed. When he learned that Ye Tan wanted to build a house in the educated youth station, Carpenter Liu said that he would make another solid wooden door for Ye Tan, and there would be no cost. Ye Tan was grateful and thought of turning back and giving the Liu family something to pay.
Because the house on Ye Tan had not been built yet, Ye Tan discussed with Carpenter Liu and placed most of the things in the Liu family first. When it got dark, he would send her the box, stool and bamboo basket to her first. Carpenter Liu naturally agreed.
After leaving Liu's house, Ye Tan thought about it and realized that something seemed to be missing. He said to Tong Meifang: "Aunt Zhou, do you know where to change the iron pot, water tank, kitchen knife and shovel?"
These are essential things in the kitchen. Without these things, it would be useless to have a kitchen alone.
"Ouch!" When Tong Meifang heard Ye Tan say it, she slapped her forehead: "No, you still have to make some of these houses in the kitchen."
After thinking about it carefully, Tong Meifang said, "This way, your house has not yet been raised, don't worry, I have an unused iron pot at home. As for the others, I'll ask you to find out who has extra."
"Hey, okay, thank you Aunt Zhou." Ye Tan's eyes lit up: "I'll change your iron pot with you. See what you need?"
Tong Meifang smiled and said, "If you have any extra cloth tickets, just give me a few feet. There is no need for more. It is not easy for you to be a girl to go out."
Ye Tan knew that Tong Meifang was taking care of her. She couldn't get a few feet of cloth tickets, even a second-hand iron pot. She smiled and said, "Aunt Zhou, thank you for taking care of me like this."
"Yeah, I'll watch you get along with me, and it's okay to take care of me."
The two of them smiled and spoke, and the atmosphere became more and more harmonious.
After they separated from Tong Meifang, Ye Tan went back to the educated youth site directly. When he entered the yard, Han Lu was exposed to the house and the two met in a straight face.
Han Lulu dared not provoke Ye Tan alone now. Not to mention being beaten, maybe her good cousin would have to help Ye Tan, so she snorted heavily at Ye Tan, then turned around and entered the room.
Ye Tan was a little puzzled. He didn't know where Han Lulu got such a strong temperament all day long. Aren't you tired? Hum this and that, I don't know, I thought they had raised a pig in their educated youth.
