Marrying a village tyrant husband with space, being spoiled by the in-laws

Chapter 24 She wanted a big bathtub for convenience...

"We are all family. If Third Sister-in-law needs Second Sister-in-law in the future, please don't be polite to me."

Zhang Lanxiang is also a down-to-earth person, but she doesn't talk much and her personality is not as open as Tao Guihua's.

After the polite exchanges, everyone started to eat.

Although the Li family's life was better than most families, they could only eat enough and wear warm clothes. They could only eat meat once a month, which was not always enough.

Today we have not only meat but also chicken, and everyone is afraid of not having enough to eat.

Yu Suihuan picked up the chicken in the bowl and took a bite, and felt that it was not as delicious as he had imagined.

At that time, people didn't know how to add spices when stewing meat or chicken, resulting in the stewed meat having no taste. However, the advantage was that the meat was of good quality, fresh from home-raised animals, and chewy.

After she finished the meat in the bowl, she didn't pick up any more meat and only picked up some vegetables to eat.

The three half-grown children were eating with gusto. The oldest one was about seven or eight years old, and the two younger ones were about five or six years old.

Tao Guihua, who didn't understand the reason, thought that her sister-in-law didn't like to eat meat, no wonder she was so thin.

It’s not that Yu Suihuan doesn’t like eating meat, he just thinks it has no taste when cooked.

After dinner, Li Chengjin took her back to their own room.

Yu Suihuan is the new daughter-in-law, and no matter what, it will not be her turn to wash the dishes today.

The Li family's courtyard has rooms on all four sides, and the main house is where Li Lao Da and Li Zhou live.

The west wing was home to the eldest son Li Chengjia, his wife Tao Guihua, and their two sons, the eldest and second.

The second son Li Chengxing, his wife Zhang Lanxiang, and their son Sanwa lived in the south wing.

The north wing is naturally Li Chengjin's residence.

There are three suites in the north wing. The one on the right is used to store sundries, the middle one is the living room, and the one on the left is their bedroom.

The furnishings in the house were quite simple. Apart from a bed, a cabinet, a table and two stools, there was no other furniture.

"You've been tired this morning, lie down and rest for a while. I'll take you to your second uncle's house later. Brother Chengli is a carpenter. Ask him to make you a cabinet, a dressing table, or something. Just tell him if you need anything."

Li Chengjin also knew that the house was indeed a bit simple.

"I'm not tired, let's go now."

In addition to the six taels of silver given to her this morning, Yu Suihuan still had more than two taels of silver left from the sale of the gold pendant, which added up to more than eight taels.

This is a lot of money, so when you have money, you naturally want to improve your quality of life first.

At first, I lived in a thatched house and had no conditions and could only boil water to wipe my body. Now I can consider customizing a large bathtub. The weather will get hotter and hotter in the future, and it is easy to stink if you don’t take a bath.

Li Laoer's house is right next to Li Lao's house. Their houses are also made of blue bricks and tiles, and the layout of the two houses is almost exactly the same.

As soon as he entered the house, Li Chengjin shouted at the top of his voice, "Brother Chengli, are you home?"

"I'm here, Chengjin, what do you want to talk to me about?"

A tall, dark-skinned man walked out of the main room with a wooden shovel in his hand.

The gaze fell on Yu Suihuan, but he only glanced at her and then quickly left.

Yesterday, I heard from his father that Brother Chengjin rescued a girl in Daliushu Village, and she will be his wife today. It seems that what his father said is true.

This girl was different from other women in the village. She was slender and graceful, just like the ladies from the city.

No wonder Chengjin has such high standards. Even if the other party is an orphan, he is willing to marry her.

"Brother Chengli, this is my new wife. I asked you to come here to arrange some furniture. Huanhuan, just tell Brother Chengli if you need anything."

"Brother Chengli."

Yu Suihuan shouted openly, showing all proper courtesy.

"Don't be so formal, sister-in-law. Just tell me what you need. Let's go to the backyard first. There are some furniture I made. If you like anything, take it home and use it."

The three of them passed through the corner door and came to the backyard. The spacious yard was filled with large and small pieces of wood.

Not far away are three simple thatched huts where Li Chengli usually works.

Pushing the door open, there were a lot of furniture of different sizes placed inside, including large and small cabinets, dressing tables, tables, chairs, beds, wooden basins, and a small bamboo couch that looked like a sofa.

"These are all commonly used furniture. Once they are made, there will be no problem selling them. Take a look, sister-in-law, to see if you like any of them."

Yu Suihuan chose a set of large cabinets, a medium-sized box, a dressing table, two wooden basins, one large and one small, and the bamboo couch.

"Brother Chengli, I also want to order a larger bathtub. How many days will it take?"

"After the tub is finished, it needs to be fixed with iron sheets on the outside, which will take at least seven days."

Li Chengli didn't make many of these things, because most people in the village used wooden basins to wash, and only the families in the town would give a bathtub as a dowry to their daughters when they got married.

"It doesn't matter when it's ready. How much do these furniture and the bathtub cost?"

As long as it can be done, Yu Suihuan is not in a hurry.

"I'll give you a stool for this dressing table. I'll give you a small table for the bamboo bed, and a clothes rack for the bathtub. The total is two taels of silver."

"It's so cheap. Normally, those without a bathtub cost more than two taels of silver. Wouldn't you be at a loss if you bought so many, Brother Chengli?"

Li Chengjin himself felt it was too cheap.

Li Chengli waved his hand, his tone brooking no room for argument.

"Why lose money? We use it for our own family. I feel embarrassed to ask for money. Anyway, we won't lose money."

Yu Suihuan took out two taels of silver from the space and handed it over.

"Thank you for your hard work, brother Chengli."

The more than eight taels of silver were suddenly reduced by two taels, but she still wanted a lot of things. It seemed that she had to find a way to make money.

This kind of purely handmade, solid wood furniture is heavy. Even Li Chengjin and Li Chengli, two tall and strong men, had a hard time lifting a large cabinet.

Finally, everyone in the family came to help, and finally the remaining furniture was moved into the house.

Fortunately, the furniture in this room was also made by Li Chengli. The colors and other things are the same as the new ones, so they look like a set and don’t appear out of place.

The bamboo couch and the small table were placed in the living room, making the originally empty house seem less empty.

"Mom, please move all the clutter in this room to the utility room in the backyard. I have also ordered a large bathtub. When the weather gets hotter soon, it will be more convenient for Huanhuan and I to take a bath."

Li Chengjin took the initiative to take the responsibility of buying the bathtub because he was afraid that his mother would have a bad impression of Huanhuan.

"Since we have nothing to do now, let's move to the backyard."

When Li Zhou heard about buying a bathtub, she was surprised at first. People in the village all use wooden tubs to take a bath. Who would use a bathtub? The main reason was that it wastes hot water.

But if you think about it the other way around, as long as the two of them have money, they can buy whatever they want and she has no right to interfere.

Although the bathtub is not practical, it is at least something I bought, which is much better than letting the third child spend money on eating, drinking and having fun with his bad friends.
