When Mr. Wang saw that Su Sanlang was also on the road, he smiled and went out. After all, the wealth does not flow to outsiders. It is very good for Su Sanlang to stay and bring an income to the village.
Su Sanlang felt relieved now that the field matter was settled.
On November 30, Su Sanlang's injuries were mostly healed. Even Old Man Wu found it incredible how he could heal so quickly.
But that's the truth.
Even Su Chong and Su Hua's injuries have healed, just waiting for the scabs to come off.
The same goes for Zhao's hands, which healed quickly.
On this day, Su Sanlang went to Yangjiao Town, bought some household items, and came back with two jugs of good wine.
In the evening, Mrs. Zhao took Su Sanmei to stew chicken and duck.
At the dinner table, Su Sanlang's family, who had always been quiet, spoke for the first time today. Su Sanlang and Mr. Zhao toasted the old man Wu. He looked at the old man Wu gratefully and said, "Doctor Wu, thank you for saving our family.
There is no way to repay kindness. I, Su Sanlang, promise you that I will never refuse if something happens in the future. We have harassed you for so long, and we are grateful to you for taking us in."
Old man Wu was eating the meat, holding the wine bowl and drinking it in one gulp. He said, "Man, please don't take it from me. I look annoyed. I take it from you. Let's eat."
Su Sanmei gave Old Man Wu a big duck leg and said sweetly: "Grandpa Wu, you can eat it."
"Um."
This time, Old Man Wu did not refuse.
After eating and drinking, Old Man Wu went back to the main room without looking back.
In the evening, Su Sanlang discussed with Mrs. Zhao. He said: "Mother, my wife, I'm mostly better now. I want to ask Brother Huzi to help me build a house tomorrow. I've asked about it. I'll have to work hard outside for a day."
If we get 30 coins, we will hire people from the village. Forty coins a day, we will live in the village from now on, so I will ask the villagers to build a house, which can be regarded as a favor."
Mrs. Zhao nodded: "Okay, I'll listen to you."
This place was familiar to me after all, and I had no big grudges with the villagers. It was just that Su Sanlang had beaten a big tiger, which made many people jealous for a while.
But as long as you look back and think calmly, you will realize that what Su Sanlang said that day was all angry.
Moreover, all the money from selling tigers was spent on buying land and building houses. Su Sanlang was no different from the people in the village. And in the future, seeing Su Sanlang blind and Zhao disabled, the last bit of envy in people's hearts would disappear.
What the people in the village have is what they sacrificed half their lives for.
"It's hard on you."
Su Sanlang sighed, holding Zhao's thin shoulders, his voice slightly choked with sobs.
Mrs. Zhao couldn't help but blush, and she responded warmly: "Dad, I'm not afraid of suffering, and I don't feel suffering either. I'm actually happy."
Ms. Zhao leaned on Su Sanlang's chest, and everything she said was from the bottom of her heart. Because of Su Sanlang's wholehearted love and care, all the suffering she had suffered would be over.
Sometimes she also thought about what would have happened if she had not met Su Sanlang. In this world, maybe she would be better off, but it would not be much better. In fact, it is difficult for a bought woman to be respected.
It's more likely that your life will be even worse.
So now it is very good, even if it is not perfect, it is the best.
"Sleep peacefully, we can have a good year this year."
Su Sanlang kissed Zhao's forehead and said gently.
The family finally got through this difficult time.
On the first day of December, Zhao invited Chen Hu.
Chen Hu looked at Su Sanlang, smiling and his eyes turned red. With a lump in his throat, he said, "Third brother, what kind of house do you want to build?"
Chen Hu was happy that Su Sanlang and his family could stay and put down roots, but seeing that Su Sanlang was missing an eye, he felt very uncomfortable in his heart.
Su Sanlang patted Chen Hu on the shoulder and said with a smile: "Build a bigger one. Build a big house for Brother Chong, Brother Hua, and the third and fourth sisters. The yard is also fenced, with a kitchen and a main house."
Build a bigger building, build a pen for chickens and ducks in the back yard, and dig a well."
For the house that he will live in for a lifetime, Su Sanlang wants to build it well so that when he is gone, his two sons can guard the house for the rest of their lives.
Therefore, the house must be well built, strong and sturdy.
"Okay, it must be built well."
Chen Hu smiled and agreed, because Su Sanlang gave him such a good job, and Chen Hu's life at home became easier.
Forty cents a day can earn a good income, and in this cold weather, there is no work to be done. With such a bad job, Father Chen and Mother Chen are so happy that they can't close their mouths.
After discussing with Chen Hu for a long time, Su Sanlang gave Chen Hu money, and Chen Hu went to buy materials for building a house.
Forty people were hired to build houses in the village.
They came to help Su Sanlang build a house and made money. Everyone was happy and didn't care about their previous jealousy. They said good things and with so many people, the construction progress of the house was also very fast.
The house looks almost the same from day to day.
Every day Su Sanmei would hold Su Xiaolu to see what the new house looked like.
Even Su Chong and Su Hua knew that this would be their home from now on, so they would help out a little every day and count the days with expectation.
"Fourth sister, we finally have a family. Dad said he would build a big house for you and me. When you grow up, you can sleep on your own. I'm so happy. There's also a big chicken pen.
Then I can raise chickens and ducks again, and I can catch a lot of bugs for them to eat."
Su Sanmei carried Su Xiaolu on her back and said while catching insects to feed the chickens and ducks.
Their family is temporarily staying at Old Man Wu's house and keeping the place clean.
Su Sanmei was very diligent, either catching bugs or sweeping the floor and doing laundry. When she had free time, she would take Su Xiaolu and carry her out for a walk.
Su Xiaolu looked at the building next door, with a smile in her eyes.
In late December, the beams and tiles of the house had already been put up.
The cabinets and tables that were hired by the carpenter were also moved into the house one after another.
On December 28, the new house was completely completed. Su Sanlang bought firecrackers to set off and paid the wages to the villagers.
Everyone got one or two more, and naturally they happily said blessings before going back.
The construction of the house and labor cost a total of one hundred taels of silver, and the materials were all used.
Su Sanlang's family also moved into their new home on this day.
Before leaving, Old Man Wu still put on a bad face, waved his hand impatiently and said: "Go quickly, go quickly."
Su Sanlang and his family bowed gratefully to Old Man Wu and said, "Dr. Wu, thank you for taking us in during this period. If you don't mind it, I will ask Brother Chong and Brother Hua to help you clean the yard every day.
Third sister will help you do the laundry."
Old Man Wu looked at Su Sanlang, and finally said calmly: "No need, I saved you, and you paid money. It's not that you haven't paid anything during these days. I don't like too much excitement. Since we are neighbors, then
