Chapter 84: Distribution of Things and Preparation of the Banquet

Fortunately, these things will be delivered to them after they buy them, so they don’t have to take them home themselves. Otherwise, they really wouldn’t be able to take so many back.

The house-warming party was held at Old Man Lin's house, because only his yard had enough space to accommodate so many tables for the whole village to sit down and eat.

The food was delivered in the afternoon. As soon as it was received, several aunts and sisters-in-law in the village who were good at cooking came over to prepare the food, and several other aunts and sisters-in-law also came to help.

Lin Qingxue lives in her house with her two children. Her house is a courtyard within a courtyard. The big courtyard has three small courtyards. She and her children each have a courtyard, but the children are still young, so they sleep in the same courtyard with her.

She went to the city to shop today. In addition to buying things for everyone, she also bought two sets of winter clothes and cloaks for each of her two daughters, as well as some small jewelry.

"Mom, are these bought for me and my sister? They are so beautiful!" In her room, Lin Xiaoya couldn't let go of the jewelry bought by Lin Qingxue. There were head flowers, hair strings and pearl flowers, as well as small hairpins and bracelets, etc., each item was in duplicate.

"Xiaoya, Xiaowan, we bought two of these, one for each of you sisters. Did you hear me?" Lin Qingxue looked at the two children with a smile and said softly.

"I understand, Mother," the two children said in unison.

"You two are still young. Do you two sisters sleep together or with your mother?"

Lin Qingxue continued to ask in a low voice. Although she wanted her own private space, she knew that the child was still too young and had been frightened along the way. She was also worried about the two of them sleeping alone.

"Mom, my sister and I want to sleep with you for a while, and then we can sleep on our own. Is that okay?"

Lin Xiaoya looked at Lin Qingxue and asked in a low voice. She didn't want to sleep alone yet, and her sister didn't want to either. They both wanted to sleep with their mother. They had been sleeping with their mother since they moved into the new house!

"Of course! Then let's sleep together!" Lin Qingxue agreed without thinking. Thinking of the big family at home, it seems that it is time to buy a few maids to come home to wash clothes, cook and clean.

Old Man Lin's house is divided into the front yard and the back yard. There are five large yards in the back yard, and these five large yards have three small yards. Each small yard has five houses. Each house is about 30 square meters in area. There are wooden beds and kang beds in the houses, and two cabinets for storing things. Each small yard also has a small living room specially for entertaining guests.

The front yard consists of a front hall, a side hall, a dining room, a kitchen, servants' rooms, and the main house of Old Man Lin and his wife, as well as Uncle Lin and his wife. In front of the side hall and the dining room there is a small garden, a small courtyard with a small rockery and a pond. The open space in front of the front hall is also very large, with an area of ​​nearly 300 square meters.

Lin Qingxue asked the two children to put away the things she bought for them, and then took them to the front hall.

At this time, the other members of the Lin family were chatting in the front hall, including Village Chief Lin and several elders.

"Qingxue is here, come and sit down. Let's discuss how to distribute those quilts, cotton coats and trousers you bought. Do you have any good ideas?"

Seeing Lin Qingxue coming, Village Chief Lin and the others breathed a sigh of relief. The things were bought by this girl, and she must have known what she was buying.

"Our village, not counting our family and the Liu family, has thirty households. Each family has two quilts, six pounds of cotton, and one bolt of coarse cloth and one bolt of cotton cloth. The rest will be divided between the Lin and Liu families. We sold the horses to pay the balance for the bricks and tiles, and we bought some other things, leaving us with 1,200 taels of silver. Do you think we should divide it up or put it together to buy seeds later?"

Lin Qingxue didn't hesitate and sat down directly in the empty seat next to Old Man Lin. Since everyone wanted her to speak, she naturally wouldn't hide it.

"The villagers are running low on money. Give some to everyone to buy things, and keep some for seeds!"

Village chief Lin looked at several elders and felt very uncomfortable when he thought of the villagers who had come to him one after another to complain about their poverty in the past few days. He knew that the villagers had no other choice.

"Then distribute six hundred taels of silver. Each family will receive twenty taels to purchase things, and the remaining six hundred taels will be used to buy grain and seeds."

Lin Qingxue thought about it and quickly came up with a solution. With such a small amount of silver, she didn't want her family to participate in dividing it, nor did she let the Liu family participate. Anyway, she would provide the Liu family with all the necessary things.

Hearing that Old Man Lin's family and the Liu family did not participate in the division of the silver, Village Chief Lin and the elders had nothing to understand. They were naturally very grateful to Old Man Lin and his family.

Seeing Village Chief Lin nod in agreement, Lin Qingxue continued, "I also bought some chicks, ducklings, and piglets. These are all from the village. We'll find a place for these little creatures as soon as possible in the next few days. We'll also ask a few people from the village who are not well off to come and raise them. When they're ready, whether we eat them ourselves or sell them for money, we can give some money or meat to the people who are responsible for raising them."

Seeing that no one had any objections, Lin Qingxue continued to speak. Seeing that she had arranged it so well, Village Chief Lin and several elders were naturally very satisfied and relieved.

Seeing that no one had any objection, the matter was settled. Village chief Lin ordered the two brothers Lin Qingchu and Lin Qingxun to go to each family to divide the things, and Lin Qingming and his two brothers were drafted to help.

After a busy day and distributing all the things, it was time for dinner. Everyone had their own meal that day, but the family of Village Chief Lin, several elders, and the aunt and sister-in-law who cooked were left at Old Man Lin's house for dinner.

After the women finished their meal, Aunt Lin asked Li Yanniang and others to go back to the backyard to clean up, and she stayed behind to wait until everyone finished eating before clearing the dishes.

Li Yanniang and the others did not argue with Aunt Lin about this. There were not many bowls and chopsticks anyway. Thinking of the thick quilt, thick winter clothes, cloth and cotton that Lin Qingxue bought today in their room, they wanted to go back and take a look.

That night, the three Lin Qingming brothers were very happy because they finally had a long-awaited married life.

Not only was it inconvenient on the way to escape famine, but no one was in the mood. After settling down in Linjia Village in the southern suburbs, the temperature gradually dropped. The men built houses during the day, and the women went to open up wasteland and cook. They were so tired that they couldn't even straighten their backs, and they were in no mood.

At this moment, everyone has finished their work and there are only housework to do at home. As long as they have enough food and clothes to eat, they don't have to worry about anything.

As a result, the couple's thoughts about each other came to mind. Everyone had their own room and could do whatever they wanted.

Therefore, the couple's life was satisfied. The next day, Li Yanniang and her sisters-in-law were all rosy-cheeked after being moisturized, which made Lin Qingming and others feel itchy.

In Lin Qingxue's room, she boiled some hot water in the small kitchen in the yard, gave her two daughters a hot bath, put on their winter underwear, and dried their hair. She then hugged each of the two children and slept soundly.
