Two or three things about the Duan family

The coffin shop is closed, and Duan Hu doesn't plan to find work for the time being. The weather is getting hotter day by day, and the watermelons in the field are gradually ripening.He had to collect and sell the watermelon before he went out to work in peace.

Different from the previous life, many people here are still struggling to get enough food and clothing. People try their best to plant crops in all the land, and most people will not leave the crops without planting watermelons.

After picking watermelons, Duan Hu needs to pick out better-looking watermelons every day and take them to the fruit resellers in the town.

The coffin shop was closed, and Duan Hu was not the only one who was unemployed, so was Duan Shao.

Seeing that Duan Shao was idle, Duan Hu called him to help, and the wages were calculated according to the wages of small workers in this area.

After Shi Xiaoshi left in the morning, Duan Shao came to find Duan Hu early and went to the field with him.

After pouring a glass of water for Duan Shao, Duan Hu said with a headache: "You sit down first, and I will go to take care of the little bastard at home first."

Duan Hu stopped working in the coffin shop, so he didn't let Shi Xiaoshi take Duan Tangtang to the town, and stayed at home to take care of him. Duan Tangtang, who had a good time last night, was still sleeping soundly.

Duan Hu didn't dare to leave such a young child alone at home, but with his words, Duan Tangtang was still awake.

After thinking twice, Duan Hu decided to take Duan Tangtang to the field.

He picked up Duan Tangtang's little clothes, and then grabbed his little arms and stuffed them into the clothes. He didn't want Duan Tangtang to be unhappy, twisted and twisted, and didn't put on his clothes for a long time.

Looking at the sky outside, Duan Hu was helpless. In desperation, Duan Hu simply stopped dressing him, wrapped the quilt, and threw it directly into the big bamboo basket that was long and wide enough for him to lie on. Come on, stuff Duan Tangtang's clothes into the bamboo basket.

The small clothes, especially those in summer, are not heavy and cannot weigh people down. Duan Hu straightened them up again, exposing Duan Tangtang's head.

Looking at Duan Hu who was carrying a bamboo basket of clothes and quilts, Duan Shaowan looked at Duan Hu as if he was insane, and looked at the colorful bamboo basket of clothes. Is this the posture of going to the ground?

Duan Hu was a little uncomfortable being stared at by Duan Shao, "What are you looking at? Let's go quickly." Because of Duan Tangtang, they have already delayed a lot of time.

Duan Shao nodded, and then went to the field.

When they arrived in the field, they placed the bamboo baskets under the trees on the ground, and Duan Hu and Duan Shao went down to the field to get busy.

While working, the two chatted, "Ahu, this watermelon is harvested, what do you plan to do in the future?"

Duan Hu also stopped when he heard the words. He has been irritating about this for the past few days. He really wants to continue doing his old job.Then there are only two ways, one is to go to another store, and the other is to open a store by yourself.

The first one, Duan Hu is very conflicted in his heart. Basically, there are coffin painters in the surrounding coffin shops. If he goes, he will not be treated well by the old shopkeeper, and he may not have enough free time. , He has to obey orders and depend on others. In his previous life, the reason why he didn't think about working part-time even though he failed many times in business.In the past, he was too irritable. After experiencing a life and death, he has already suppressed a lot.

The second type is that even the slightly better coffins in the shop are enough to cost him all his money, not to mention renting a shop and hiring craftsmen... It is not impossible to sell only low-grade coffins, but this coffin is not an ordinary thing, if there are no dead people , who would be willing to buy this thing?

Without the big business from time to time, and the small business with few orders a month, it is really difficult for Duan Hu to support the shop.So this doesn't work either.

After listening to Duan Shao what he wanted in his heart, Duan Hu will finally decide to tell him, "I think I will open a furniture shop and sell furniture." This is not like a coffin, which can only be bought after death. , only one pair can be sold at a time.

After Duan Shao listened, he was a little surprised by Duan Hu's thoughts.

What kind of furniture do you sell coffins?

After the shock, Duan Shao patted him on the shoulder, "Since you've made your decision, go ahead and call me if you need help."

"I will still be polite to you?" Duan Hu smiled and hammered Duan Shao's shoulder, and lived a new life. In addition to Shi Xiaoshi and Duan Tangtang, Duan Hu's biggest gain is Duan Shao who is willing to stab him in the ribs Brothers.

Talking and laughing, the movements of the two did not slow down at all.

As the sun got higher and higher, more and more people came to the field. Some people couldn't help but stop looking at the watermelons in Duan Hu's field, and some people stood on the ground and asked Duan Hu loudly, How much for one.

Vendors don’t accept bad-looking watermelons, so Duan Hu intends to sell the watermelons that have been sieved, because Duan Hu from the same village has deliberately lowered the price, “One penny.” They are all bad watermelons, Duan Hu Hu did not sell too expensive.

No, two shouts woke up the sleeping Duan Tangtang, it was rare for Duan Tangtang not to cry, he just sat up suddenly. "Ah~" He even yawned a little.

The man standing in front of the bamboo basket was startled by the sudden appearance of the doll.

Duan Shao was also startled, he looked at Duan Hu, "When did you bring Tangtang?"

Duan Hu glanced at him calmly, "Morning." After finishing speaking, he walked towards Duan Tangtang. You know, Duan Tangtang hasn't put on his clothes yet to pee and drink milk.

Handing over the man who bought the watermelon to Duan Shao, Duan Hu approached the bamboo basket, hugged out the naked Duan Tangtang, and then calmly dressed Duan Tangtang under the watchful eyes of the villagers.

As for the dignity of his son, Duan Hu said that he is still too young to talk about dignity.

Such an irresponsible father caused Duan Tangtang to be ridiculed for many years.

The children of Duan Hu's family are the most white and chubby, and they are still naked. It is interesting for everyone to look at them, so it is inevitable to take a few more glances.

After dressing Duan Tangtang, Duan Hu hugged him and urinated under the tree, then held him in his arms and nursed him.

Duan Tangtang had just woken up, her whole body listless, lying in Duan Hu's arms without moving, just sucking the milk mechanically.

After Duan Hu finished harvesting the watermelons in the oxcart, Duan Tangtang had already regained his former vigor, lying on a pile of big watermelons and giggling, not knowing what he was laughing at.

In order to sell watermelons conveniently, Duan Hu specially bought an ox cart, spent seven taels of silver, and relied on this ox cart to deliver watermelons to the town every day.

He loaded the watermelon into the car with Duan Shao, and Duan Hu got a baffle around the car, so he was not afraid of the watermelon falling.

After everything was ready, Duan Hu carried Duan Tangtang into the bullock cart.

Duan Tangtang had been considered for a long time, and Duan Hu specially installed a fixed seat on the bullock cart, with quilts spread around it.

After touching his son's head, Duan Hu raised his bullwhip and started on the road.

When passing by Shi Xiaoshi's dim sum shop, Duan Hu originally wanted to hand Duan Tangtang over to Shi Xiaoshi to watch, but seeing that Shi Xiaoshi was busy, he gave up this plan, didn't stop any longer, and took Duan Tangtang to sell watermelon.

Duan Tangtang was bright-eyed. In a large group of people, he immediately found his father in the crowd. He was immediately excited, and while pedaling on the scooter to stand up, he waved his hands and yelled at Shi Xiaoshi.

In the end, his father didn't notice him, and his father didn't stop either. For the first time, Duan Tangtang had a bewildered expression on his face. He couldn't figure out how this could happen.

After being confused, small tears began to flow. Duan Hu saw that it was not good, so he quickly stuffed him with a small watermelon the size of a fist.

Duan Tangtang immediately forgot about the unhappiness, and happily played with the little watermelon.

Obviously coaxed his son well, but Duan Hu was still feeling overwhelmed. A watermelon surpassed his father's position in his heart, so what about him as a father?

Duan Hu didn't dare to think about it.
