章 58: Chapter 58 I Want to Take a Bath
"Then, give me half of the total price. The baby won't take up much space." The village chief begged.
The shopkeeper was impatient, "Chengchengcheng."
The village chief muttered, but for a long time he couldn't figure out how many copper coins he would give.
Just as the shopkeeper was about to ask how many people were in his family, Gu Fei said from the side: "Grandpa, village chief, there are six adults and two children in your family. Just add a bucket of water and give me 140 Wen."
The village chief was surprised . He looked at her and said, "You girl, you know how to count?"
"Is this correct?"
The shopkeeper also glanced at Gu Fei, "This girl is right, it's one hundred and forty Wen."
The village chief asked He counted a hundred pennies in a string, counted another forty pennies, and hurriedly called his son to fetch water.
Gu Zhang looked at Gu Fei, "Where will we live?"
Gu Fei slept the same wherever she slept, but she wanted to take a bath.
She hasn't had a bath since she came to this world!
The little water at home was barely enough for the family to eat and drink, but it was not enough for her to take a bath. She did not dare to make such an obviously unreasonable request to take a bath.
Gu Fei pulled her father aside and said, "Dad, I'm thinking about getting a room. I need to take a shower. My injuries are terrible and I'm itchy all over."
Gu Zhang had no objection, " That's fine. You women will stay in the dormitory at night. There are not enough beds on the floor, so your brothers and I will live in the common bunk."
"It's just Uncle Ma's place -"
He turned around and glanced at Uncle Ma. Uncle Ma seemed to understand. After realizing what he meant, he smiled at Gu Zhang and said, "I can just live in Tongpu."
When he was young, he often slept in the wilderness.
Gu Zhang nodded, "Then I'm sorry for you."
Gu Fei quickly handed over the money to the shopkeeper and bought a few more buckets of water, planning to heat it up at home and take a bath later.
Gu Qing and his younger brothers had built a simple stove out of clay and rubbish. Gu Fei pretended to rummage around in the car a few times and took out a large iron pot and then two buckets.
Mrs. Chen came over and whispered: "Daughter, I'm thinking about it. Today at noon, everyone sees our family eating white noodles, and I'm afraid they feel a little knotty in their hearts. Bring out some meat, and we'll make a pot of broth later. Every household is given a bowl."
Gu Fei admired her mother for her high emotional intelligence.
She nodded, pretended to rummage in the car for a while, took out a piece of meat, and took out the chopping board and kitchen knife.
Gu Erlang went to fetch water, while Gu Qing and Gu Sanlang took a lantern and went to find dry firewood in the field nearby.
Mrs. Chen placed the chopping board on the waist-high loess wall and began to chop the meat.
Qian's side was disgraced. Gu Zhong didn't do any work at home, and he still didn't do any work when he came out, wandering around with his hands behind his back.
Qian's earthen stove hadn't even been set up yet, and Xing'er was being ordered around by her, sometimes asking her to take this, and sometimes letting her take that.
Bao'er played with Huzi and the village chief's grandchildren named Yam Yao and Forsythia.
The old lady looked at Gu Fei's house. Two earthen stoves were set up, water was brought over, Li Chunhua was stirring a piece of alum in it, and Mrs. Chen was chopping meat.
Gu Fei and Lanzhi picked off the roots and yellow leaves of the wild vegetables they picked on the road.
Everything is in perfect order.
The rest of the families also joined the battle together, and the village chief's family began to make noodles.
The old lady hurried to Qian's side to help. She was afraid that her eldest son and precious grandson would not be able to have dinner.
