บท 19: New Home
Because the little landowner's caravan was about to set off. Therefore, she asked the two people she hired to speed up their pace so that they could steadily produce eight pieces per day. As for her mother, she maintained the same speed of producing two pieces per day, except that she changed the cloth from plain cloth to flowery cloth.
By the end of the month, Su Jin had acquired a total of forty pieces of cloth. She paid the two hired men, then paid off the remaining ten debts and sold another twenty pieces.
Right now, she only had forty pieces of cloth left. After selling twenty pieces, she had earned one thousand and eight hundred paper coins. The wages for Tan Jun's mother were nine hundred and seven paper coins, while the wages for the other woman was three hundred and fifty-seven paper coins.
One tael of gold was given to number one to replenish energy. Now, she only had twelve taels left, she tore down one tael and took half to buy enough fabric materials to store, while the rest she put together with the other two to prepare for unexpected situations.
At the end of the month, the renovation of the house had also finished. Su Jin didn't want to delay it any longer and also paid for the rest of the liquor.
In the middle hall was where her mother and second brother and sister slept, and a kitchen extended out of the hall. To the south was the place that had been made into a special piece of cloth, and to the north was the original sundry room. The sundries inside had been thrown away by Su Jin a long time ago, and now they were all her living quarters and warehouses.
The backyard was just a newly built bathroom and shower room. Su Jin purposely made them adapt according to her own design. She added equipment similar to modern showers to make the showers more convenient.
The ground was covered with sand and rocks, and it was perfectly flat. There was no mud on a rainy day, so the two meter high wall firmly encircled the entire yard, giving people a heavy sense of security. The willow door was extremely sturdy, and it was unlikely that anyone could easily kick it open.
More than half of the tiles on the roof had been replaced and the air had been blocked out. The originally bumpy exterior had been repaired. Although it was still a wall made of yellow mud, it was much better than before. This winter, there was no need to be afraid of the cold wind, it would definitely be very warm.
Only after Su Jin brought her family around the house did everyone realize how big the change in their home was. Meng Qin looked at the few houses that had regained the splendor she had when she first married. She couldn't help but be excited.
"In a few days, when it's time for the new year assembly, let's go buy some furniture and eliminate all these junk. We can have a comfortable New Year."
"Alright, alright." His mother kept saying "yes". She ran back and forth, pinching the grass grasshopper Su Jin had bought for her as she smiled happily.
"Jin'er, you said that you want us to live a good life, and now you've done it." The few of them returned to the living room. Her mother was still unable to calm her heart as she excitedly asked Su Jin.
"Let's have a good meal today." Su Jin said.
"Alright, it's time to celebrate." His mother agreed.
From Su Jin's point of view, although she was only renovating the house, this was a good omen for her family's new life. Following her current trajectory, better houses would eventually arrive. She had always been very confident in this.
Seeing that it was almost noon, Su Jin quickly called for her mother to go with her to the market.
The mother deliberately changed into her best clothes and walked with her daughter with her head held high, carrying a vegetable basket, as if she were not there to buy vegetables, but to receive honor.
Su Jin, who was watching at the side, found it funny, yet somehow felt touched. She was slightly behind him by half a step and walked towards the market with her.
It was already November, and the weather had become completely cold. The first snow was hanging in the sky, not stopping for a long time. It caused the entire sky to be iron-gray, and it continued to be like this for several days.
However, today's noon seemed to be an accident. The wind was getting stronger, but it also seemed to blow away the heavy clouds in the sky, bringing with it a trace of warm sunlight that scattered down, covering the ground in a thin layer of bright color.
Su Jin stretched out her hand. Looking at the sunlight that was quietly resting on her palm, she couldn't help but smile. Her heart, which had been busy all these days, suddenly relaxed.
At this moment, she did not care about the accounts, but only thought about a little girl. She would normally go shopping and spend time with her mother.
"Buy some ham." The mother and daughter passed a ham shop. Su Jin stopped in front of the big shop.
"Ham is the best way to eat it. It's also good to cook the soup." His mother agreed and went up to the boss, saying, "Give me a pound of ham." Su Jin and the other bosses had already wrapped up the ham and came forward to pay: "How much?"
"Eighteen coins, this is my old leg for three years." The boss said.
Su Jin took the change bag and counted out eighteen pieces of money. Then, she took the ham and put it away.
"We can still talk about the price." His mother rebuked him, "Don't think that our family can spend so much money right now."
"Yes, yes, yes." Su Jin agreed on the surface, but quickly paid for most of the time.
Meng Qin was adamant, so she had no choice but to give up.
"Mother, the purpose of my hard work is for you to not have to worry about this one or two cent." Mother, the purpose of my hard work is for you to not have to care about this one or two cent of money. Seeing that her face was still gloomy, Su Jin tried to persuade her.
"It's easy to go from frugality to extravagance, but like this …" "Sigh …" Mother wanted to take the old story and tell it, but when she saw the body of her daughter next to her and the light shining on her, she couldn't care less about it all. Suddenly, she felt that her daughter was a stranger and couldn't say anything.
The mother and daughter walked down a street and bought a catty of pork, some vegetables, a fish, and some other seasonings.
"What's wrong with Sister today? I bought so many things today." As soon as the two of them returned home, the little sister ran over and took Su Jin's fish, which was still alive and kicking, which was still adorned with grass ropes. She jumped back into the house and called her brother.
When his second brother heard that, he helped the two to unload their belongings and raised the same question.
"To celebrate the success of our house renovations." Su Jin said with a smile.
"Alright." His second brother's mouth was wide open, and his hands and feet became more nimble. He arranged most of the things he had bought on his own.
Su Jin and her mother rested for a while before they started to busy themselves with dinner. The two of them had been busy for almost four hours before dinner was finally ready.
The family had never had such a sumptuous dinner. Nearly all the plates were used, and the dishes were packed to the brim. The small table was crowded to the point that the rice bowls could barely fit inside.
After the two of them finished eating, they carried the dishes to Su Jin and her mother.
"Have a taste of this ham." Su Jin said as she picked up a thin piece of ham. Under the light of the oil lamp, the ham looked plump and greasy.
In fact, Su Jin had also swallowed a few mouthfuls of saliva. She had been insulated from this kind of delicacy for months, she missed the taste of meat more than anyone else.
The family ate extremely fast. In less than an hour, the entire table was filled with dishes of sauce. Su Jin burped in satisfaction. She felt that today was a wonderful day since she had transmigrated.
