Su Xing naturally came to Su Liejun's side, squatted down and helped pull cotton.

"Holiday?" Zhu Liejun saw the bag that Su Xing carried, "Why did you bring things over again, I told you, you have everything at home, don't always bring things over, just eat by yourself." ”

"It wasn't anything, just a cigarette and some fruit. Su Xing said.

"What are you buying cigarettes for him, buy one, take it back, don't put it here. Luo Wenjuan, the grandmother who woke up, walked out of the house, carrying half a bag of cotton in her hand, which looked like she was going to take it out to dry.

Su Xing walked over and took the bag from Luo Wenjuan's hand: "I'll come, take the cigarette back and my dad won't smoke it." ”

"If you don't smoke it, you can sell it. Luo Wenjuan said, "You took it, it was wasted." ”

Su Xing poured out the cotton, spread it evenly on the ground, and smiled bitterly after listening to Luo Wenjuan's words: "If you want to sell it, what are I going to buy cigarettes for, I have money on me, let you take it, don't plant cotton next year, it's too tired, you have to water, you have to fertilize, it's troublesome to pull cotton, and you can't sell it for a few dollars, on such a hot day, where can people stand it." ”

"What can you do if you don't grow cotton? Su Liejun said, "But next year we can't plant so much like this year, people are old, it's really not good, and it's a little unbearable." ”

Awakening is a little helpless, he has already mentioned to Su Liejun that he will plant a little less land, and the four sons, not to care about him, will send rations every month, and then Su Changguo, the uncle who has awakened, will also send money back every month, there is no need to work hard to plant that little land, just to earn a few hundred yuan, busy for a long time.

I mentioned it several times, but it didn't work.

Su Liejun and Luo Wenjuan belong to the kind of people who can't be idle, they always have to do something to walk birds and drink tea, they haven't learned this kind of pleasant thing, they can't do it, they will only plant some land, maybe they feel that working in the field will be steady, and they will feel alive.

"Where is the fourth uncle?" Su Xing didn't see Su Changlong, he should have gone out, and he didn't know when he would come back.

"He should be back later, he went to find money for someone else's work, and it dragged on for more than a year. Su Liejun said, "Don't be busy, just do it with your mother-in-law, you just have a fun on the side, don't you do it."

"It's fine. Su Xing continued to pull the cotton, waiting for Su Changlong.

When the cotton balls piled up on the ground were almost all finished, Su Changlong came back, woke up and put the cotton he had just torn off on the ground in front of the door and spread it: "Fourth uncle, do you still have work to do?"

"Not for the time being, what's wrong?" Su Changlong carried the meat in his hand, "Don't leave later, just eat here, I'll make dumplings." ”

"Is the money coming back?" asked Su Liejun.

"I'm coming back. Su Changlong nodded, "Last time, I said that I would settle the money in two months, and he has been delaying it for a year, and if he doesn't give it this time, his face will not be good." ”

"I want to build a new house for my family, you can find someone to come and help me get it. Su Xing said.

Su Changlong paused and looked at Su Xing: "The family wants to build a house? Why didn't I listen to the second brother, I met him when I came back just now, and he didn't mention it to me." ”

"I haven't told them yet. Su Xing said.

"You decided it yourself?" Su Changlong was even more surprised, looking at Su Xing, this nephew is not very old, and he didn't see anything special in the past, but since the summer vacation, he has become more and more mature than his peers, and he is assertive.

He was able to decide on such a big thing as building a house, and he didn't tell his family, but ran directly to discuss with him and asked him to find someone.

What high school student would be able to do such a thing?

"Your house can indeed be built, and it doesn't cost much to add another floor, and it can be done in ten days and half a month. "Su Xing has money in his hands, Su Changlong knows.

During the summer vacation, Su Xing ran over and stuffed Su Liejun, Luo Wenjuan with a thousand yuan, and after pulling for a long time, Su Changlong had seen it.

It is not a secret in the village that Su Xing made money fishing for lobsters, Su Changlong knew and guessed that Su Xing was going to build a house, and this money must be the money earned from lobster fishing.

"It's not about adding a layer to the top, it's all tearing down and building a new one. "I was not very satisfied with the original layout of the old house, and I wanted to tear it all down and start over.

"It costs a lot of money to build a new one, did you make so much money fishing for lobsters during the summer vacation?" asked Su Changlong.

"How much does it cost?" Awakening didn't have much of an idea of that.

"Thirty or fifty thousand yuan is for it. Su Changlong said, "The labor has to be extended, and the cement has to be doubled, all of which cost money, or you can add a layer on it, and you can get it for up to 10,000 yuan." ”

Su Xing took out a piece of paper from his pocket and unfolded it for Su Changlong to see: "Fourth uncle, take a look, do this, make it into three layers, the height of the floor is not so high, there are two meters and eight, how much does it cost to make it like this, it should be more than thirty or fifty thousand, right?"

Su Xing showed Su Changlong the floor plan he had drawn himself, which was not professional enough, but he could understand it, and the general appearance was drawn, a three-story house. The height of the floor has been reduced from nearly four meters to two meters eight, which is about the same height as the previous two-story building, but the area is one-third more.

"You have a lot of rooms here, and there are only four people in the family, can you use so many rooms? I see that you still have a bathroom here, do you need a toilet in the room?" Su Changlong looked at the picture, and was full of doubts, "If you really want to do it like this, thirty or fifty thousand will definitely not work, at least seventy or eighty thousand." ”

"Seventy or eighty thousand is seventy or eighty thousand. "I don't care about waking up, the important thing is that the house is done to my heart, there are many rooms, and there are bathrooms on each floor, which is his basic requirement.

"Where did you get so much money, it is impossible to make so much money from lobster fishing, right?" Su Changlong didn't look like he was telling a lie, but he felt that Su Xing's words were incredible, not to mention seventy or eighty thousand, even if it was only thirty or fifty thousand, it was a very large amount in the countryside, and Su Xing didn't care at all, and his tone was very relaxed.

"It's true that you didn't make that much, but uncle, you have been working in mud for so long, and you should be more familiar with those who sell cement and bricks, right?"

"Knowing is knowing, but it is impossible for people to agree to tens of thousands of yuan in material costs. Su Changlong said, "It's not just the cost of materials, but also the labor cost, you don't have to give me money, but other people's money can't be owed for too long, and it's best to settle it within a few months." ”
