Chapter 23:

Looking at the coal stove Su Yu and the others brought back, Su Dazhi and Liu Mei also stared blankly.
"Sister, there is a stove at home, why spend money to buy this?" Su Dazhi asked curiously.
Su Lin looked unhappy when she heard the words, "Big brother, what do you mean. If you don’t cook, you don’t know how hard it is. It’s so hard for me to cook every day. The stove is so smokey, and I do I can’t open my eyes! And just for this meal, I have to collect firewood on the way back from school every day."
As I said, my sad tears fell from Barabara.
Su Dazhi's face is red. For a person who didn't cook, he really didn't think so much. At this moment, he heard his sister cry and felt extremely ashamed.
"Okay, why are you crying? My sister has come here for so many years. Many people in the compound have also come here." Su Yu patted Su Lin on the shoulder.
Su Xiaozhi also tilted his mouth and said with a look of contempt, "That is, if it weren't for your love of beauty, the eldest sister wouldn't have had enough of these hardships over the years. We might have used coal stoves long ago."
Su Lin: "..."
Su Yu smiled slightly, "It's all a family, and my sister didn't blame you. Now the family is working together, and life is getting better and better. With coal stoves in the future, Xiaolin will be more comfortable cooking. In addition, I am going to shut the door. Push down the earthen stove outside and move the wall of our house out. Put a bed on the right side of the door and surround a small partition. In the future, Dazhi and Meizi will have their own rooms."
Upon hearing this, Su Dazhi and Liu Mei looked surprised, and then their eyes glowed with excitement.
To say what their greatest ideal is, it is to have a room of their own. Even if only one bed is allowed.
Only then did Su Dazhi know why elder sister is buying a coal stove, this is to make room for him.
"sister……"
Su Yu didn't wait for him to be sensational, and continued, "In the future, you will sleep in the position where you sleep. It will be a holiday tomorrow. You see what to do."
When Su Xiaozhi heard that, he was a little bit sour and uncomfortable, but he was immediately excited, "Sister, I will listen to your arrangements!"
Oops, I don’t have to squeeze in the same bed with the old fourth. There is a nest to sleep in.
In the evening, Su Dazhi helped put the iron pot on the coal stove and started cooking. The family cooked a meal with a coal stove for the first time.
Although they were eating simple corn porridge, everyone was full of happiness.
It feels like what my sister said, life is getting better and better.
After the meal, Su Yu mentioned to Su Dazhi and Su Xiaozhi about receiving his salary.
"Sister, just take it with you, don't tell us."
Su Xiaozhi said with great pride.
"Yes, it's all agreed." Su Dazhi also nodded. My sister arranged for him so thoughtfully, there is nothing to say.
Su Yu smiled and glanced at Liu Mei's direction.
Liu Mei rubbed her fingers, got up and took out ten dollars from her bag. As an apprentice, her salary is only twenty yuan. This is half of her income. Another fifteen catties of food stamps were paid.
This was all said before, and Su Yu was not polite and took it directly. Then he took out a dollar and a catty of meat ticket to Su Lin, "I will buy some meat tomorrow. There is still flour at home and dumplings on National Day."
Hearing this, the whole family's eyes brightened.
Even if I had eaten, my stomach started to irritate at this moment, and I couldn't wait to get the taste of dumplings.
Su Lin picked it up without any difficulty. "I will go early tomorrow morning."
In the evening, except for Su Yu, everyone in the family was so excited that they couldn't sleep. They were all waiting to buy meat and eat dumplings the next day, or remodel the house to have a nest earlier.
Early the next morning, Su Yu was still asleep, listening to the sound of bumps at home. She opened her eyes and saw that the door was closed, and there was a sound coming from outside the door.
She also didn't sleep at all, changed her clothes under the curtain, then lost her hair, and went out to wash her face with a basin.
As soon as I opened the door, I looked at the two busy brothers, even Liu Mei was wearing a towel on her head to help clean the garbage aside.
Seeing Su Yu getting up, Su Dazhi wiped off his sweat and said with a silly smile, "Sister, did it bother you?"
"No, but you guys have been busy a long time ago?" The stove was gone before. It has become neatly stacked bricks.
Su Xiaozhi smiled and said, "Yes, sister, we have been up a long time ago, thinking about taking the two pieces apart as soon as possible. The bricks we are looking for can be used to build walls. Those who are not enough, we will use wooden boards first."
For this matter, Su Xiaozhi and Su Dazhi both have inexhaustible energy.
Seeing that the two brothers are so motivated, Su Yu is also quite satisfied.
"Do it well, let's celebrate with dumplings at noon." If the horse runs fast, it should also be sweetened appropriately.
The people in the compound had been watching the movement of Lao Su's house early in the morning, and after they knew that Lao Su's house had bought a coal stove and wanted to give Su Dazhi a painful place, they all looked over here.
Sister Lin followed Su Yu into the bathroom with the washing tub, and she asked in a low voice, "Why did you think about removing the stove? That was what your parents did back then."
All the people in the compound were allocated to live here. When they came, they were poor and white. They couldn't afford coal stoves. Every household set up stoves and burned all kinds of wood firewood. Later, when they could buy briquettes, they burned them. Even now, few coal stoves are used in the compound. Industrial tickets are so expensive, and just buying a big iron pot was a waste of the boss's energy.
Su Yu sighed, "There is a coal stove at home, so I don’t need it anymore. Just to make room for the bright spots of the family’s living. No matter what they think of me, anyway, I want them to cross over as much as possible. . I hope that my family will be one mind in the future."
"You, just think about them. By the way, what about your partner, when will you get married. You can't hold it back."
Sister Lin's words are nice. In fact, there is a girl like Su Yu's age in the compound, and the children can already make soy sauce.
"I'm not in a hurry. I haven't made arrangements at home yet. I don't worry about going out." The key is that she didn't find the right one. If she wanted to find what she wanted, she would get married right away.
"You guy, I still think you look away, why are you still thinking about your home. Hey, you can grow a little heart." Sister Lin hates that iron can't become a steel road.
"Okay, I must listen to my sister-in-law's opinion, and get married sooner. I know my sister-in-law treats me well."
Sister Lin ironed her heart.
Outside the bathing room, Su Lin, who couldn't wait to take the pork to Su Yu's relationship, turned her lips back and went home silently while holding her lips to endure the pain in her heart.
Sister was delayed at home.
When Su Yu went back after chatting here, her door was already very clean.
Su Dazhi and Su Xiaozhi are discussing how to demolish the wall and expand. Fortunately, just to remove the side of our side, the project is not too big.
Su Lin had already cooked the porridge on the stove. Seeing Su Yu coming out, she immediately said, "Sister, I'm eating, I will lay an egg for you."
Su Yu smiled and nodded, "Okay, eat well."
As soon as she saw the shadow at the bathroom door, someone should be standing. It's probably Su Lin. Except for the people of Lao Su's family, no one else would stand in the doorway and listen to other people's rants.
At breakfast, Su Yu peeled the eggs while saying, "My body seems to be better recently. It seems that eating something good is really useful for my body. When my body is well developed, good things will be I can eat it for you."
"Sister, eat more." Su Lin said. It's not easy for my sister.
Su Dazhi and Su Xiaozhi nodded, "That's right, sister, eat more." My sister is in poor health and is tired from running around for the family, so sister should eat more. Sister's health will get better and better in the future.
Even Liu Mei now has no other ideas.
The old lady has arranged everything for them. And she usually protects her at home, what else can she say?
The key is that the body of the older sister is considered to be bad for her natal family. No face to say.
Su Yu smiled comfortedly and stuffed the egg into her mouth. She felt as if she had fleshy on her face recently. My skin has also started to improve. After all, this age has not been polluted by all kinds of pollution. As long as nutrition keeps up, the skin will get better and better.
Finally, the better.
As an officer who will often show his face in the future, how can he not have a good face.
Eat more dumplings at noon!
In the morning, the two brothers Su Dazhi continued to clean up the house, while Su Yu was reading at home.
Seeing that she didn't plan to go out at all, Su Lin couldn't help but said, "Sister, don't you go out? Didn't Brother Guozhi also have a holiday?"
Su Yu raised her brows, oh, this is because she started to care about the major events in her life.
She smiled and said, "Don't worry."
Then lower your head and continue reading.
She said she was not in a hurry, but Su Lin couldn't help being anxious. How can I get married if my sister doesn't have much contact with Guozhi brother?
...
Wu Guozhi is combing his hair in the staff room of the Provincial Machinery Factory.
His mother, Mrs. Wu, was sewing clothes on the side, occasionally scratching her scalp with the tip of a needle, then looking up at her son from time to time.
"I said Guozhi, what are you doing? If you want me to say it, you can find the girl of the old Su family. How nice it is to be honest. I heard that, the was still on the other day The newspaper is here. Our family is considered to have a face when it is taken back. It is a heavy burden on the family... But her brother is already married, and she should be fine as a sister."
Wu Guozhi tilted his mouth, "People are too stupid."
It's so stupid that it is disgusting. I actually feel that letting him pay for the meal is to make him look good. It simply lost his face. When he went to work in the factory, some people even mentioned it, saying that he took the lesbians to dinner and almost couldn't get the money.
Granny Wu stared, "It's better to be silly, such a daughter-in-law is easy to handle. Now this society is different from before, women have changed, and women with new ideas and skills are too much to hold their heads up as a mother-in-law. I’m not satisfied with your brother’s partner. I will marry back later, so it’s hard to handle."
Of course Wu Guozhi knew this truth, otherwise he would not look for a woman with Su Yu's conditions. But Su Yu was stupid, she was not feminine, her face was skinny, and her family was still poor. Really let him live a lifetime, he felt a little unwilling.
He is getting older, but it is not impossible to think of a good one.
Sun Min, the apprentice worker in the factory, is not bad now. He is young and can eat food when he becomes a regular employee.
The point is that it is a bit difficult. Young girls are not so easy to chase.
Seeing that he didn't say a word, Mrs. Wu frowned and said, "What the do you think? If you don't find it when you are old, you are still preparing me to serve you for the rest of your life. Find a daughter-in-law to come back to take care of the housework, and I will have a leisure time. "She took a fancy to the old Su's family. She must have served her younger siblings for so many years.
The eldest daughter-in-law, isn't she just serving the family?
Wu Guozhi was dragged by an old lady and widow since he was a child, so he didn't dare to make her angry, so he quickly promised, "Mom, I'm sure to find you a good wife back. Everything is good, so you have a face."
Wu Lao Niang said, "Don't expect, your brother will give me a long face, and I want you to find someone who can serve people back."
"...Okay, at the end of the year, if I haven't found it here, I will find someone from Lao Su's house. Don't worry, she is obedient to me and can't escape. Except for marrying me, she No one wants it either."
Speaking of this, Wu Guozhi couldn't help feeling a little proud. He is not so bad, if he is so bad, can a woman still be so desperate for him?
After comforting Mrs. Wu, Wu Guozhi hurriedly went to the appointment. He wants to get people down quickly. As for Su Yu, after he goes to work on National Day, he will find another chance to have a meal and watch a movie together. Get back the money you took out last time.
There was only one day off National Day, and Su Yu didn't go out to go shopping. It is better to read at home. I went through the textbook briefly, and then selected a few questions for her question set by Teacher Xu.
Although she consciously learned quite solidly, she should be safer before taking the exam.
You must make yourself a little bit better. Even if it's a matter of stability, you must go all out to ensure that you get the best results.
Only those with the best grades will be the brightest. There will be more opportunities in the future.
No way, starting from this life~ the point is too low. If you want to go better in the future, you must ensure that every step is safe and sound.
Seeing how she was studying in labor, Su Lin was not idle, making dumplings while reading with a book.
She used to think that she was studying in school, and she felt that she was superior to her sister. Now my sister is also studying, and is better than her own. She feels that she is much worse than her now. Just as the second brother said, sister made a lot of money in school, but she lost in school...
Su Lin sometimes recalled what happened when she was in school, and she felt too bad. At that time she compared food, clothing, and living with others. It's just not better than the results.
My sister has nothing to compare with others, my sister's grades are so good.
She felt that she now understood more and more why her former sister suddenly became indifferent to her.
My sister is heartbroken. I hate iron but not steel.
When the dumplings are finished, the wall of the house is almost finished. The outer wall is made of bricks that used to build the stove, and the inner side is a wooden board, which the two brothers found in the waste recycling station.
Su Yu looked at the curtain wall, the delicate carvings on it, and the smell of wood with a little scent, and stared blankly at the curtain wall. "Dazhi, this wooden board used to be a bed frame? "
"Sister, you are really smart, you will hit it right away."
Su Xiaozhi happily said, "I picked it. Although it broke in the middle, it was pieced together. The material for the wall is quite suitable."
"I feel fragrant." Su Dazhi said.
Nonsense, of course, this is Nanmu!
If these few big logs are placed in the future, they can be replaced with such a broken house.
Now he fell into this broken house to make up the wall.
Su Yu suddenly felt that the wood's experience was quite similar to her own, the pearl was covered in dust. She patted the pieces of wood lightly. At this moment, she couldn't care for them. After all, their current value is just a few broken pieces of wood. It will take many years to wait until they regain their worth. Su Yu feels that it is better to rely on these pieces of wood to turn over.
But when I move in the future, I still have to take it away.
Turn around and tell Su Xiaozhi, "Xiaozhi, this smells very fragrant, go back and pick up some of this scented wood, nail it to me on the bed shelf, and I will smell some scent."
"Sister, I'll find good material for you, this wood is quite old."
"It's okay, sister likes to be low-key in her life." The furniture made by Nanmu is not only low-key, but also luxurious.
After a lively meal of dumplings at noon, the happiness of the entire Lao Su family rose to a new level. Even the dumpling soup was drunk clean, and then he touched his stomach.
Su Yu sighed, "I heard a few days ago that many peasant brothers in the countryside are eating tree bark hungry. How happy we can still eat dumplings now."
Everyone nodded again and again. So happy.
Su Yu said with pride, "I believe sister, sister will make you live a good life."
"Sister, we believe in you. Without you, there would be no dumpling." Su Xiaozhi said firmly.
What is this kid talking about!
Su Yu's expression was touched, "My Xiaozhi knows the most considerate. Xiaozhi, you are kind to Sister, and Sister has nothing to say. Sister intends to solve your work problem in a while."
Su Xiaozhi almost stood up in shock, "Sister... how is it possible?"
"Even if it's impossible, Sister has to try." Su Yu said with a self-confidence, "You usually listen to Sister's words the most. Of course, Sister will solve such a big problem for you."
She has to let her family know that no matter how difficult things are, it won't be impossible in her hands. She is not only loud, but also capable. Whoever really kisses her will have a better life.
However, other people, including Su Xiaozhi, had no answer to her. Now the number of recruits in the factory is limited. It doesn't matter to their old Su family, Xiao Zhi is also so impatience, this is not easy to handle.
But for the sake of the face of the eldest sister, everyone remained silent.
The eldest sister finally brags once, just listen carefully.
