Rebirth: I Raise a Husband in Another World
Chapter 18 A happy life is...
Considering his height, body shape and future happy life, Lin Han chose the largest one.
Thinking that there were no basins at home to wash vegetables and clothes, he picked out two wooden basins, a small wooden barrel and a rice steamer.
After making his selection, Lin Han took them out and showed them to Uncle Li, "Uncle, I've chosen them. I want these four."
Uncle Li said in embarrassment: "Okay, this barrel is the largest of all the barrels I have, but it took me a long time.
You see, this barrel is so big, and it takes a lot of effort to make, so it’s more expensive than other barrels.”
This wooden barrel is so big, Lin Han knows that it must have taken Uncle Li a lot of time.
He said sensibly, "I saved it. Please just tell me how much it is."
After hearing what he said, Uncle Li felt relieved. After all, it took him a long time to make this wooden barrel.
It is normal to ask for a higher price, but I am afraid that Lin Han will not understand and say that he is cheating.
Now that Lin Han has said this, everyone is naturally happy, "Okay, okay, as long as you don't bother.
There are three sizes of wooden barrels in my house: large, medium and small. A small barrel costs fifty wen, a medium barrel costs one hundred wen, and a large barrel costs two hundred wen.
The one you've picked out now is much larger than a large barrel, so I'll charge you two hundred and fifty coins. The basins you picked are forty coins each, and the rice steamers are fifty coins each, for a total of four hundred and thirty coins."
Lin Han gave the money to Uncle Li, put the small bucket, basin and rice steamer into his backpack, carried the big wooden barrel and went home.
When he was almost home, Aunt Zhang, who was hanging clothes in the yard, saw him.
Greeting him: "Lin boy, you went to Uncle Li to buy a bucket. No wonder I didn't see you so early in the morning."
Lin Han replied as he walked: "Yes, Auntie, it's always inconvenient to take a bath without a wooden tub at home.
Besides, Sister Guifang hasn't gotten married yet, and our two families live so close to each other, it's not good for me to always bathe in the yard."
Aunt Zhang thought about it and it made sense. Her daughter hadn't even gotten married yet. If she accidentally saw Lin Han taking a bath one day, it would be bad if someone knew about it and spread it.
Aunt Zhang said: "Okay, you are a successful person, and you know how to repay kindness. Seeing that you are living a good life now, I am happy for you."
Lin Han put down the wooden barrel, thinking that it didn't matter who he bought the seeds from.
Aunt Zhang's house is the closest to his home and is good to him, so he might as well buy it from Aunt Zhang's house and save himself from making another trip.
After a while, he walked to Aunt Zhang's yard and said, "Auntie, I want to buy some vegetable seeds from you. You know I don't have any land in the village.
I never grew vegetables before, but now I think it would be really unbearable to have no vegetables to eat.
I'm planning to clear a small plot of land in the yard to grow some vegetables, onions, garlic, cilantro, etc. Do you have any seeds for these?
After understanding Lin Han's meaning, Aunt Zhang scolded him: "Look at you, you are alienated from me.
The vegetables you mentioned are plentiful in Auntie's fields. If you want to eat them, just go find them yourself. Why bother growing some yourself?"
Lin Han said sincerely: "Oh, Auntie, how could that be? I just want to make things easier. I thought of planting a small patch in the yard so that I can pick some vegetables when I want to eat them."
Aunt Zhang looked at Lin Han's expression, and it seemed that he was just doing it for convenience, just as he said.
She is old and cannot keep up with or understand the ideas of young people, but she respects and supports them.
Aunt Zhang said: "Okay, you are lucky. We still have some vegetable seeds left at home. You can use them."
When Lin Han heard that he had a solution, he became visibly happy.
Lin Han: "Okay, thank you, Auntie. How much do you think these seeds are worth?"
Aunt Zhang was puzzled. Why did Lin Han keep asking for money? It was just some vegetable seeds. Why should he ask for money from his neighbors?
So, Aunt Zhang got a little angry, and her tone was a little stiff: "Hey, why are you asking for money again? It's just some vegetable seeds, I won't ask you for money.
Old people often say that distant relatives are not as good as close neighbors. Our two families are so close, we should help each other. Don’t mention money in things like this in the future, otherwise I will ignore you.
You, don't always think about spending the money you earn. You should learn to save money.
We farmers don’t earn much except for food throughout the year. It’s hard to make money, but easy to spend it, and it’s all gone in a flash.”
When Lin Han was in modern times, no one ever told him to save money. Since he came here, almost everyone who was nice to him told him to save money.
Knowing that Aunt Zhang was doing this for his own good, Lin Han accepted it humbly.
He originally wanted to buy a few eggs from Aunt Zhang's family, but now he doesn't dare to say it. It seems he can only ask other families.
Seeing that he didn't say anything, Aunt Zhang thought he was angry, so she softened her tone a little.
Aunt Zhang: "Lin Han, I'm not saying this to blame you, I'm doing this for your own good.
If you don't like to hear it, I won't say it again in the future, but please don't hurt our harmony."
Lin Han felt Aunt Zhang's caution and explained with a smile: "Don't, I know you are doing this for my own good. In my heart, you are like my own mother, you can't just ignore me.
I am young and don’t understand many things, so I will need your guidance in the future.”
Lin Han's little mouth was as sweet as honey, and her words were so coquettish that Aunt Zhang couldn't stop laughing.
Aunt Zhang threw her head back and laughed: "Hahaha, okay, if you're willing to listen, I'm willing to tell you.
Okay, I won't waste your time. I'll give you the seeds right away."
After saying that, Aunt Zhang turned around and went back to the house. After a while, she came out with a few small bags of seeds.
She pointed to Lin Han and said, "Look carefully, this bag contains cabbage seeds, this bag contains green vegetable seeds, and this bag contains coriander seeds.
The remaining two are onion and garlic seeds, which you should recognize."
Lin Han took the seeds and thanked her again: "Thank you, Auntie."
Aunt Zhang: "Look at you, why do you need to say thank you?"
Lin Han: "Aiya, Auntie, since you won't let me give you any money, can't you let me say thank you a few more times to express my gratitude?"
Aunt Zhang smiled again after hearing this: "Okay, you're such a quick-witted person, I can't argue with you. So, let it be your way."
Lin Han said goodbye to Aunt Zhang: "Auntie, I'm leaving now."
Aunt Zhang feigned disdain and waved him away: "Go away, go away! Don't delay me from my work."
Lin Han put the seeds at home. It was only a little after nine o'clock now, so he had to buy a hoe and start clearing the land for planting.
The person who sells hoes and sickles in the village is Yang Zhiqiang, the younger brother of the Xinghua Village chief.
His home was very close to the village chief's home. He remembered that Qin Qin had asked him to buy some cloth and then take it to his house to make clothes for him.
Now he was going to buy a sickle and a hoe, so he could pick them up on the way.
Suddenly, Lin Han suddenly remembered that he didn't buy any dry goods.
(^0^)/Good morning, good afternoon and good evening everyone!
