Chapter 430 Life is tight (please vote for me!)
After Yan Yu returned home, she first went to find Master Lu.
After the Qi family's house was built, the Hu family invited Master Lu and his family over.
The Hu family originally built four adobe houses. As the Hu family's wealth grew, Hu Da became a small flag again. In Uncle Hu's words, he was as big as an official. The old man gradually became dissatisfied with his own house.
After the two in-laws from Da'an Village came here, Uncle Hu became increasingly dissatisfied with his adobe house. After the family discussed it, they decided to build another house.
In the name of Hu Da and Hu Er, they occupy two more homesteads.
Lift the lid at the same time.
They are all six-room brick and stone tile houses, with large courtyards, fire walls, big Kangs in each room, stone paving on the floor, plaster on the walls, manure pits, and pig pens...
In short, all standards should be aligned with the Yan family.
Originally, four rooms were enough for Uncle Hu and his wife, together with his unmarried old daughter Hu Xiaomei, Mr. and Mrs. Hu, and Mr. and Mrs. Hu, plus the three children of the family's grandchildren, Dalang, Erlang and Xiaoni.
When two in-laws from Da'an Village, Hu Da's daughter-in-law's natal family, and Hu Da Mei's husband's family arrived, the house was so crowded that it was almost impossible to fit in.
I didn’t say anything, cover it!
Uncle Hu was secretly thinking that after the two new houses were built, one would be given to the eldest son, and the eldest daughter-in-law's family would also live there first. When would it be over, it wouldn't be too late to move after he had built his own house.
Uncle Hu thought it was new and wanted to try it.
They were all real relatives, and they came to the old Hu's house. Uncle Hu was a good-looking man, and it was not good for him to be thin on one side and thick on the other. It was not good for anyone to go out to find accommodation in the village, so they simply vacated a room for the whole family.
"It's hard to buy cows. Who can sell legitimate cows? The calves will have to be raised for a few years..." Master Lu frowned and said.
Uncle Hu was listening nearby.
Yan Yu rolled his eyes and asked: "I heard that there are many cattle and sheep in Beirong. Is there anyone brave enough to get cattle and sheep from there?"
Think about it in your mind.
"Boy, what are you doing?"
Yan Yu's heart was about to move.
Sit up with your hands and feet flowing smoothly, cross your legs, and sit upright.
Uncle Hu thought about the young people in the village, but there was always something he was not satisfied with.
Uncle Hu sighed.
He looked at the dog pulling the sledge in front of him and asked with some worry: "Can you pull it? Grandpa Hu can sink it."
When it comes to farming, you still need cattle, not mules or donkeys.
Fortunately, the kang was big enough to sleep horizontally and vertically, so the two in-laws could finally be accommodated.
Master Lu's family and his two cousins' families all stopped what they were doing and surrounded Yan Yu, listening carefully for fear of missing a sentence.
well!
His family is already considered one of the top three rich families in the village, but they still have such a tight life.
His family, with an older population and five acres of land per person, really worked hard and worked day and night to cultivate it.
Yan Yu shouted in a clear voice: "Hang in there and run slowly."
The four adobe houses we live in now will be lent to the eldest sister and her family first. After they build the house and move out, the old couple will move back with the little sister. Well, there is no telling when it will only be the old couple and the old daughter.
When you get older, it’s time to look good...
"Let's talk to Master Lu about something. Does Grandpa Hu want to go to Uncle Hu and Uncle Hu's new house? Take a seat on my sledge, if you can sit down." Yan Yu got down, held the shelf, and stood at the back.
I felt that the house was suffocating, so I planned to go to the two places in the new house.
Yan Yu didn't go home and went directly to the charcoal burning field in the forest.
Country people pay special attention to matters involving houses and land.
"Hehe! It can definitely be done, just come up, Grandpa Hu." Yan Yu promised.
When Uncle Hu heard the noise, he turned around and saw that it was the waiter, and the wrinkles on his face burst into laughter.
Fortunately, the two children held back and vented all their excitement in their work, and the plaster mixing became more and more joyful.
Yan Yu listened and felt that the problem of insufficient labor force was still an issue that could be easily solved.
"Uncle Lu, my father asked the elder and he said that if your family wants to buy a homestead, just discuss it with the village. Decide which piece of land it is and then go to the household to go through the formalities. The land in our village was also reclaimed. At the beginning,
It’s better to measure more land and come out with more land. If your family wants to plant it, just follow our rules for opening up wasteland. It’s also tax-free for three years and will be given a three-year contract, which is the seed. The government can’t distribute it now. We’ll see about it in the spring next year.” Yan Yu said.
It was a little slow, I was afraid that the Lu family could not hear clearly.
If there aren't enough people, we have to use animals to support them!
"Uncle Lu, it would be better for your family to buy a cow in this situation." She sincerely suggested.
Uncle Hu was very excited and grabbed Hu Er: "Second brother, next time you catch a few dogs for the big gathering, don't blame Da Lang and Er Lang for asking for them. This dog is really bad at pulling a sledge. If you catch the big ones,
Once it's tamed, you can use it when you come home..."
"Boy, it's too slow, please go faster."
But... they really don't want to sell the land.
"Grandpa Hu!"
"Why not?" said Master Lu, who was well-informed and well-informed: "We rarely see tigers here, but there are dragons and phoenixes, but phoenixes are more common."
Yan Yu agreed vaguely, and did not say whether Huju had a cow for sale. He only promised that if you believe it, you will be the first to contact the Lu family.
The whole family also discussed it privately, and wanted to live here in Xiao'an Village, but they didn't want to give up the original land, but they were too busy to farm. Selling the land was also a way to get more money.
Just in time to build a house.
One was for the second son's family. The old couple and their old daughter went there with them. The second son had a bad temper and had helped the town for a few years. Xiaoni was still young, and his wife could still help the second son's family take care of their children.
When planting vegetables this summer, the ground is plowed shallowly, but if you are growing grain, you need to plow deeper.
Cousin Lu Da said: "In the process of opening up wasteland, even if you don't have any seeds, you won't be successful."
Uncle Hu said angrily: "Hit!"
Master Lu and his two cousins looked at each other and said affirmatively: "Although it is more expensive to buy, one cow can support several strong laborers. It is enough for our family to buy one and rotate it. Xiao Er, but
Is there someone selling cattle over there in Huju? If you know the truth, you must tell us."
Second cousin Lu said: "How do you prepare the land at home? If you plant this area, there will be too much work on that area. Is it really for sale?"
From a distance, Yan Yu saw Grandpa Hu walking forward slowly with his hands behind his back, his body upright.
…
Hu Er agreed wholeheartedly, and Da Lang and Er Lang next to him looked at each other and wished they could squeal.
Qi Da and Qi Wu both went home for dinner.
The family's money is enough to build two houses, and the rest must be prepared for the little sister's dowry and cannot be touched...
"Okay! Grandpa Hu is sitting down... just hang in there and start running!"
But building a house can’t wait until next spring, it’s imminent!
I invited Master Lu to come up with a plan and calculated the family's money.
She couldn't help but ask: "Uncle Lu, if we can get a cow, can your family buy it?"
"Let's go!"
Only Qi Si was here, arranging the steamed buns one by one on the stove. When he felt that they were almost done, he turned them over.
"Fourth uncle, fourth uncle, fourth uncle!" Yan Yu's cheerful voice sounded from far to near.
When Qi Si heard the sound, he stood up and strode outside the wooden house.
"Xiaoer!" he shouted happily.
