Chapter 11, Tell the truth
Come on! My dear grandson, you really think your grandma and I don’t understand anything! You can fool me and others can’t fool me.
This stove should be called a wall-hung stove. It seems that this wall-hung stove is different from what I have seen before. This one looks more refined.
When Jiang Yanna heard Grandma Lu say the name of the wall-mounted stove, Jiang Yanna looked at Grandma Lu in shock.
Grandma and I have seen this thing at my best friend’s house. It’s great for keeping warm in winter.
What Grandma Lu said next set off a storm in Jiang Yan's heart.
Don't look at this short paragraph, the amount of information is too much, but this grandma who said from the side that she recognized this grandma is really not an ordinary person.
Grandma, this is called an iron fireplace. You can think of it as a larger coal stove. I saw someone selling this thing when I was wandering around Diplomacy Alley in the morning. I thought it was a good thing and bought it. I'm afraid you might say
I spent money indiscriminately and found a place to hide it. The money was five oceans in total, but the money was given to me by my master.
The money I exchanged for the French currency you gave me in the morning is all here. After speaking, Jiang Yan took out twelve cash coins and some silver coins from his pocket and handed them to Grandma Lu.
No, you should keep the money! If you need to get money from grandma again, you can't use the personal money your master left for you.
Jiang Yan could only nod in agreement, but he still put the money in Jiang Yan's hand after a few shirks.
Why did Jiang Yan spend fifteen bucks on these two wall-mounted stoves without spending a penny at all? When Jiang Yan was cleaning up the supermarket, he found a total of seven iron fireplaces in a corner of the supermarket, one large and six small.
I just remembered this when I saw the master repairing my room.
You have to know that the winter in Sijiu City was quite cold at this time. Jiang Yan didn't like sleeping on the kang, so he thought of the iron fireplace in his space.
This is a new type of iron fireplace. It not only has great firepower, but also saves firewood. It can be used for both coal and firewood, and the smoke it emits is very small. It is most suitable for the courtyard house at this time.
As for making a heated kang, Jiang Yan had also thought about it, but he didn't really like sleeping on it.
Jiang Yan was very satisfied with the fried noodles at noon. According to Grandma Lu, this was not the most authentic fried noodles.
According to Grandma Lu, the sauce used in authentic Sijiucheng fried noodles must be Liubiju’s yellow noodle sauce.
When eating fried noodles, the most common one is fried noodles with diced pork. When eating, pay attention to eating "guoer pick" hot noodles in cold weather, and eating cold noodles in hot weather, and add seasonal side dishes according to the season to make "noodles"
"Mian Ma'er" varies according to the season, and each has its own particularity. In early spring, it is bean sprouts with the head and tail removed, and radish tassels; in late spring, it is green garlic, Chinese toon sprouts, green bean sprouts, etc.; in early summer, it is new garlic,
Cucumber shreds, lentil shreds, leek segments, etc.
In short, no matter what kind of side dish it is, you must gather eight dish codes.
But now that we are in war, it is quite good to have a bowl of fried noodles with fried noodles, and there is meat in it.
After Grandma Lu stayed, they and the master ate the fried sauce and distributed the remaining fried sauce to the people in the courtyard in small bowls.
But this also made Jiang Yan see the shamelessness of Jia Zhang and others. Others were extremely grateful to Jiang Yan for the fried sauce, but Jia Zhang was the only one who disliked Jiang Yan and the others for being stingy.
Angry Jiang Yan almost covered Jia Zhang's face with the fried sauce.
Perhaps because the meal served at noon was so rich, the chefs were very energetic in the afternoon. At just early three o'clock in the afternoon, the house had been tidied up.
Not to mention that the craftsmanship of the master is really good. The master ingeniously designed a unique shape for the outdoor smoke outlet. It not only hides the chimney, but also integrates it with the house. It looks very good.
The wall-mounted stove in the house has also been properly installed. It almost looks like it is embedded in the wall. Not only is a place reserved for the ashes, but there is even a place for placing wood ingeniously. This craftsmanship is really not lost.
At Jiang Yan's request, Grandma Lu and the windows of her house were also renovated.
After taking a look at the brand new supplies, Jiang Yan felt very satisfied.
This is your wages. Grandma Lu took out a wad of money and handed it to Lao Zhangtou, but Lao Zhangtou did not accept it.
Instead, he looked at Grandma Lu for a while and then said submissively.
Sister, can you give me this money in exchange for food? The children at home haven’t eaten rice for a long time. I don’t want much, so just give me five kilograms of rice.
After hearing what Lao Zhangtou said, Grandma Lu sighed, turned around and went to her room. After a while, she took out a small bag and handed it to Lao Zhangtou.
Sister, there are more, there are more,
Your craftsmanship is worth the price, take it! I will inevitably trouble you in the future.
Sister, don't worry. If anything happens in this house, you can come to me, Old Zhangtou. After saying this, Old Zhangtou thanked me profusely and left the courtyard with his apprentice and rice.
Grandma, how much rice did you give? Why is he so grateful?
I gave him six pounds, please give him more! This world is really not easy.
At night, under the dim oil seal, Grandma Lu was mending Jiang Yan's clothes, while Jiang Yan told Grandma Lu everything he thought about.
Hearing Jiang Yan's thoughts, Grandma Lu was also very surprised and looked at Jiang Yan up and down in disbelief.
His idea has a lot of room for manipulation. If he makes good use of this group of children, it will be equivalent to having a lot more eyes. He can do a lot of things that are inconvenient for adults.
It's hard to imagine that this is an idea that a twelve-year-old kid could come up with.
But looking back, Grandma Lu felt relieved.
Even though Jiang Yan is only twelve years old, the things he has experienced are probably things that even a thirty-year-old adult has never experienced. After his parents died when he was young, he followed his master to travel around the world. This perseverance and intelligence are what those
Living under a greenhouse since childhood is something that a child cannot compare to.
This also corresponds to an ancient saying: Since ancient times, great men have suffered many hardships, while naughty men have always had few great men.
Looking at Jiang Yan's childish little face, Grandma Lu was filled with heartache for a moment, and at the same time she hated this world even more. However, from this time on, Grandma Lu no longer regarded Jiang Yan as an ordinary child.
Can this be done? Grandma Lu asked Jiang Yan.
It should be possible. In fact, it doesn't matter to me whether I make money or not. I just want to find something for them to do. It's not a problem for them to be hungry and full. Besides, this group of children is inconspicuous. With them
We'll know when there's a little bit of trouble.
The reason why I stay away from them is because of this.
Jiang Yan didn't know what Grandma Lu was thinking before, so he subconsciously nodded to her.
My dear grandson, you are doing this because of your master! Do you know that this is very dangerous and you may be killed if you are not careful?
Jiang Yan smiled and said to Grandma Lu in a nonchalant tone, "There is nothing we can do about it. If grandma hadn't taken me in, I would probably have lived a life with no clothes and no food to eat like these children. Maybe I would have fought hard."
We can survive. Isn't that what my master does? For the sake of the master, for me, and for the sake of the people who are suffering, I think I should give it a try.
Besides, I just asked them to pass on the information and not get involved in our affairs.
Jiang Yan had already thought clearly last night that he had lived a useless life in his previous life. Now that he was reborn into this world, he wanted to make his life more valuable. There was nothing better than participating in this magnificent era.
