Chapter 113 Beautiful Cocoon
Shen Xia felt happy as long as everyone understood what he meant.
Uncle said: "This will require a lot more bricks."
Shen Xia nodded: "No problem." Then he asked: "Uncle, if you don't have enough money, just tell me and I'll give you more."
So far, five hundred taels have been given, which is definitely not enough to buy materials, but not all the materials can be bought at once.
Therefore, it is definitely enough for this month at present, and the salary at the end of the first month will probably not be much different.
At this time, the workers should be paid upon completion of the house repair, but other houses took less than a month to complete.
So I plan to settle it once a month.
This way everyone has some money.
I was thinking and talking about it.
Later I thought that I had enough money now, and I had originally planned to build the wall later when I had money.
And now, with Sister Gu's one thousand taels, the silver will definitely be enough.
So we should build the wall first and surround the wasteland and the old house.
Leave three doors.
It was hurriedly divided into two parts and the left side was cordoned off. Later, when the site was expanded, it would be used as a processing plant with separate entrances and exits.
Separated from the yard where you live.
The one living on the right has a big gate in the front yard.
In addition, a large door was left on the old house to facilitate Aunt Liu next door to harvest crops. After the house was repaired, the door on the old house was sealed.
All enter and exit through the front door.
So before Shen Xia left, he told his uncle and Song Yun about his thoughts.
Of course Song Yun also knew about the one thousand taels, so he agreed to build the wall first.
Song Yun also suggested that the wall be built three meters high.
There is a climbing plant planted outside the yard, which is full of thorns.
Of course Song Yun didn't say these. He only needed to tell his eldest and second brothers. They knew what it was.
I feel like I've almost completed the handover.
Shen Xia took her two cousins and left.
Zhao Xue looked at her cousin's wife: "Cousin, you are so awesome."
Shen Xia looked at her two cousins who were staring at her: "You will become more and more powerful in the future."
The three of them went up the mountain together.
I thought there weren't many mulberry leaves left in the place we had walked before, so I took my two cousins with me to walk another way, but it was a little further.
There are a lot of mulberry leaves here.
While picking the fruits, Shen Xia told the two people which leaves the silkworms eat in which season.
The two listened very carefully and took it all to heart.
As a result, Shen Xia saw wild grapes in front of her. Although they were not ripe and not very big.
It looks like it will take about two months to mature, it's still small now.
Zhao Xue looked at Shen Xia looking at this thing and quickly explained: "Cousin, you can't eat this. It's very sour. I'm drooling when I think about it now."
I've eaten this thing before, and thinking about it now makes my cheeks sore.
Seeing Zhao Xue worried about him, Shen Xia explained, "It's okay. I'm not eating them. They have other uses. I'll pick them when they're ripe."
Then the three of them picked mulberry leaves together. Along the way, they saw some wild vegetables and mushrooms and picked them back.
After all, the wild vegetables at this time are really natural delicacies.
Zhao Xue and Zhao Xin also said that it was poisonous like everyone else.
Shen Xia also patiently explained it to them.
The three of them returned with a full basket on their backs.
There are wild vegetables on top.
After returning home, Shen Xia taught her two cousins how to feed the silkworms.
Since the three of us picked a lot, it should be enough for tomorrow morning.
After doing this, the two watched the two cousins getting to know each other.
Shen Xia looked at the two of them and said, "When you have time, watch Xiao Wu and Xiao Tian practice calligraphy. You can also learn to recognize them. It's always good to know more characters."
Now that everything was fine, he asked Song Jin to follow him back to the room.
Now Song Jin is living in Song Yun's room, so he went to Song Yun's room to give him acupuncture.
In fact, Shen Xia gives Song Jin acupuncture every day. I don’t know if he is too naive or what.
Every time she took off her clothes, her face turned red, as if she was forcing a good woman into prostitution.
But thinking about the few dead friends in my past life, this innocent look.
I haven't been teased by my sister yet.
Because of what happened last time, I don't dare to talk nonsense anymore.
I’m afraid he’ll think too much later.
It is not conducive to the recovery of the disease.
When I cooked in the evening, my two cousins followed me and learned how to cook.
The two looked at the generous appearance of their cousin's wife.
They were all so shocked that they were speechless.
This is too much oil!
If I only eat oily food, I will be full. It's such a waste.
But now that my aunt's family is rich, it doesn't exist.
The two of them, one lighting the fire and the other helping Shen Xia,
Shen Xia also wanted to teach them how to cook.
Because once you have learned how to be yourself, you can be happy and lazy.
They both studied very seriously.
Because there were so many people in the evening, we couldn't sit at one table anymore, so we had to split into two tables.
When work is over, everyone will be back.
My uncle and the others looked at the dishes on the table.
I originally wanted to say don’t waste it.
The work I do is probably not as expensive as the food.
But thinking that my sister’s family is different now, maybe it is always like this.
Zhao Xue looked at her father and said, "Uncle San hasn't come yet. Look at the food at my aunt's house. It's more expensive than the wages for digging mud. They are really unlucky."
The uncle knocked Zhao Xue on the head and said, "How dare you say anything? Have you been lazy? Otherwise, your aunt will send you back."
Shen Xia smiled and said, "With two cousins here, there is much less work to do at home. They are very capable."
The second uncle also smiled and looked at Song's mother beside him and said, "Sister, just tell her what to do, otherwise she will think she is here to play."
Because there are so many people in the family, eating is very lively.
After my uncle and his friends finished their meal, we all sat in the yard to enjoy the cool air and chat.
Shen Xia looked at the whole family. It was so lively and nice.
When had my home ever been so lively in my previous life?
As the sky gradually darkened, my uncle and his friends washed up and went to bed.
Before leaving, he told his two younger sisters to be obedient.
It was as if he was afraid that his cousin would get into trouble.
Time flies so fast!
In the blink of an eye, it is already May.
In the past few days, the silkworms at home have started to spin cocoons one after another.
On the fourth day of the New Year, I found that all the silkworms in my home had turned into cocoons.
I thought to myself, "The silkworms of other people's families should be similar, right?"
Looking at the squares filled with silk cocoons, I feel particularly happy.
These cocoons not only represent the joy of harvest, but also make people feel the magic of nature and the power of life.
It is worth mentioning that the quality of the silkworm seeds my father bought for me is quite good.
Silk cocoons come in a variety of colors, including white, yellow, pink, sky blue, etc.
Moreover, the cocoons are plump and bright in color, and they are obviously top-quality cocoons at first glance.
If these cocoons were made into fabric, it would be very beautiful.
However, I don’t know much about the styles and colors of clothes in the capital city.
After all, I had only seen some ordinary clothes in town and county.
The colors and textures of those clothes were rather monotonous, far from matching the surprises brought by these silk cocoons.
Although these batches of silk cocoons are used to make quilts, looking at these beautiful cocoons.
If it were made into clothes, it would probably look very nice.
