Cheng Xue took out one fifty taels of silver and handed it to Jiang Jianye and said:
"Uncle, this is the deposit. I will ask Huizi to give it to you when you get back."
"Oh, don't worry. I'll go get the red deed for you first, and the rest can be done later." Jiang Jianye is very easy to talk to.
If it were anyone else, they might worry about whether they could give it to them, but as a couple, it was absolutely impossible.
Li Huixiao looked at the house in front of him and reminded:
"Uncle, don't forget to write Brother Xin's name on the red deed of this row of houses."
"...Ah? Oh, okay." Jiang Jianye nodded.
His biggest advantage is that he doesn't talk too much, so I can do whatever you ask me to do.
"Uncle Jiang, help us keep the property in the west temporarily. If the vegetables sell well today and next two years, we can expand there as well."
Looking at the smiling Cheng Xue, Jiang Jianye responded:
"Okay, okay, I'll leave it all for you. You can take a look, I'll go back first. Going west to the land of Lao Dong's house, there are houses all for sale."
The less deserted land and abandoned houses in the village, the better it will be for the assessment at the end of Li Zheng.
Watching Jiang Jianye leave, Li Hui took Cheng Xue and walked around the front and back rooms. He thought there were only seven or eight rooms, but after counting, there were fifteen, and each room was an east-west room. It was conservatively estimated to be sixty square meters.
.
"We'll start working on it once the forest farm reduces the number of people. It's easy to take care of three rooms, and it's easy to control the temperature..." Cheng Xue said about the experience in her memory.
Li Hui doesn't know anything about farming, so whatever she says is whatever she says, and he just needs to cooperate.
"When you renovate the house, add a space for Yu Zhao. The couple can't live in two places separately, and if we leave here in the future, someone will have to take care of this place."
Cheng Xue thought this suggestion was good and began to think about it.
The two discussed and discussed, enjoying the rare silence.
"Come here, when will you renovate it? I'll make room for you."
Cheng Xue turned around when she heard the sound, saw it was Guo Sanyu's wife, and said with a smile:
"There's no need to go out of your way to vacate the house. Let's clean up the east end first. Once the repairs are done, you three can move in without being affected."
"Okay, thank you."
Guo Sanyu's wife is obviously much easier to talk to than before. Maybe it's because she has experienced more setbacks and the edges have been worn away. Cheng Xue doesn't sympathize with her, but she is so cooperative that it is not too much to help build a warehouse, so as not to have no space to store on cloudy and rainy days.
Chai.
The two of them continued walking west and walked around for a while before returning home. Before they even entered the house, Li Qingchun came and called Li Hui away.
Cheng Xue went back to the house to prepare for cooking. She only did simple things at noon and had a good meal in the evening. She happened to buy big bones and made bone soup noodles.
In the east room, Li Yue was reading a book on the kang, where three children slept side by side.
"Where are Tiedan and the others?" Cheng Xue asked quietly.
Li Yue put down the book and replied in a low voice:
"Brother and Tiedan are practicing calligraphy next door. Mom, what are you doing at night?"
"Roll out the noodles. Is Yingjie making a fuss?"
"No, it was great to play with Sidan."
While the mother-in-law and her mother were talking, they came to the outhouse, Li Yue made a meal, and Cheng Xue took three big stick bones out. In the yard, they chopped them with an ax "哐——哐——".
Chop it in the middle so that you can eat the bone marrow while cooking.
"Oh, where are you cooking?"
Xu Geng's voice finally came, and Cheng Xue smiled and said "hmm":
"Auntie, come home for dinner tomorrow."
Geng looked around after hearing this, and then asked in a low voice:
"Don't you have a table at your house?"
"No need to show off, let's get together if we have good relations." Cheng Xue also replied in a low voice.
Which one is near or which one is far is reflected in the words. Cheng Xue went back to the house to clean the bones, then put cold water in the pot and added fire to the stove.
Geng looked at the closed door and happily went to his wife to claim credit.
No, this family must be divided, no one can persuade it...
……
After dinner, Yu Zhao briefly talked about downsizing the staff after work.
Li Hui pushed over a cup of tea and said nonchalantly:
"Don't be afraid of this. You and the third brother will always stay in the forest farm. The house on the west side has been bought. When it is repaired, a separate room will be reserved for you and your young couple, so that you don't have to be separated from your younger siblings."
Yu Zhao did not refuse when he heard the words. He looked at his son who was playing "jijijigaga" in the kang and nodded.
"Then I'll pay some money and get the red deed directly. From now on, our family will settle here. It's close to the town and the forest farm, and there's also a school."
As a father, you naturally think more about your children and your family.
Li Hui thought it was reasonable and asked him for five taels of silver directly. He didn't need to worry about the rest. Just like his house, it was more than enough to build five rooms and create a separate bathroom.
The two brothers were chatting happily when Li Heng opened the door and let Dong Cheng and Guo Dake into the house.
Both of them were holding eggs in their hands, and the smiles on their faces could not be concealed, as if their biological brothers had succeeded in the scientific examination.
"Brothers and sisters, it's not easy. It's hard work but it's a reward. I feel proud. If you don't want other people's things, we brothers can't want them."
Dong Cheng handed over the basket as he spoke. Guo Dake also gave it later.
"There are fifteen of them given to me by my four-pillar wife. Don't think it's too few."
"A lot, a lot, thank the Sizhu family for me." Cheng Xue took them all without rejecting them.
If you don't set a table, you won't set a table, but these two families must come to the house for a feast, and they can't refuse the things given.
"Third brother, Dake brother, come over for dinner after work tomorrow. It's getting longer and warmer, so we'll have a good meal in the yard. We're working on a new way to eat it in the county, it's delicious." p>
"This...don't you want to set a table?" Guo Dake asked in confusion.
Li Hui pushed the poured tea to them and said:
"It's just a show without making any fuss, just let's eat together if we're close friends. Uncle Jiang, Dachun, and Shanzi are all coming tomorrow. I bought two river carps, both weighing fifteen or six pounds. Let's have a good meal."
”
It doesn’t matter what you eat, what’s important is that “good relationship”. Regardless of your attitude towards others, as long as the three naked dolls play well, they are better than anything else.
Cheng Xue brought a small pot of open pine nuts and looked at Dong Chengdao with a smile:
"Third brother, your Binzi and Sihong are about to have a good time. When is the date set?"
Mentioning his two younger brothers, Dong Cheng instantly burst into laughter and felt elated.
"Sihong is set for the eighth day of May, and Binzi is set for the sixth day of June. Then you must come to our house to celebrate!"
Li Hui, "Don't worry, Third Brother, we are a family of seven, no one can be left behind."
"It's done, it's done." Dong Cheng picked up Li Huai and said, "Let Si Dan roll the bed for them. This child doesn't cry or make trouble, which is really rare."
The rolling bed cannot be rolled in vain, it must be given a red seal. Usually it is a relative of one's own family, and children from other families are rarely used.
Knowing that this was the sincerity of the Dong family, both of them agreed. Cheng Xue originally planned to chat with her for a while, then went to the west room to get down to business. Who would have thought that the tiger in the yard was howling.
Li Hui was the first to rush out, and then Yan Yixin and Li Heng from next door also came out.
"Huizi, where is your wife? Hurry up and let her go and see my mother. Hurry-"
