rented the house, and Mr. Yang was very happy,

Since the death of his wife, he has lived alone. Now that he has the opportunity to be neighbors with his old friends, he can't wait to tear down the house and rebuild it immediately, move in tomorrow, usually raise fish and flowers, and drink tea with friends, such days are really desirable.

"Hehe, Xiaofeng, you just be a good person to the end, help Lao Yang find someone to repair the house, I think the mountain last time was good. The old man said with a smile,

The small courtyard where he lives now is renovated by Uncle Dashan, which is the same as the tiled houses in the village, with blue bricks and black tiles, wood carved windows, although it looks like an ordinary farm yard, but the water and electricity in it are complete, as well as modern bathing facilities and kitchens, it is very convenient to live and very comfortable.

"It's great that Xiao Feng can find the mason, I'm worried that I can't find anyone now, Xiao Feng, please help me ask." Old Man Yang clapped his hands happily and excitedly urged Zhang Feng to arrive.

"Okay, Grandpa Yang, I'll help you ask. Zhang Feng nodded, and immediately dialed Uncle Dashan's phone.

Since there have been a lot of things in the village recently, the villagers are either busy digging truffles up the mountain or tending to the vegetables in the fields, so Zhang Feng is not sure if Uncle Dashan has time.

"Hey Uncle Dashan, I'm Xiaofeng, that's .................." After calling Uncle Dashan, Zhang Feng briefly said that Old Man Yang was going to repair the house.

"Okay, I'll come over right away, it's the old house of the second uncle's family!" Uncle Dashan rushed over when he heard that it was Zhang Feng's introduction, and he didn't want to hang up the phone.

"Uncle Dashan is here, this is Yang Lao, and he wants to repair the house. Zhang Feng smiled and introduced Yang Lao to Uncle Dashan.

"Hello Mr. Yang, I am Zhang Dashan, a plasterer who has been working for several years. Uncle Dashan greeted Yang Lao with a smile.

"Hello Dashan, I'm going to build a house here, you can take a look first......" Yang Lao smiled and led Uncle Dashan into the dilapidated courtyard.

In order to maintain the unity of the houses in the village and maintain the rustic flavor and simplicity of Moon Lake, the houses built can only be tiled in the countryside.

However, there are no requirements in the house, you can renovate as much as you want, as long as you have money, there is no problem in transforming it into a palace.

The old house of the second grandfather's family was built when it was just liberated, and it has a history of more than 60 years.

At first, it was an empty wooden house, surrounded by a fence made of bamboo, and in winter, the cold wind blew through the cracks into the house, and it was extremely cold.

In the eighties and nineties, the family's economy has improved, the second grandfather's family only then laid bricks around the wooden house, and then has been tinkering, knowing that a new house was built at the entrance of the village a few years ago, the old house was not inhabited, no one cared about the wind and rain, and after two or three years, it became dilapidated, the roof tiles on the house were about to fall off, and the beams were also rotten and unusable, so Zhang Feng and the two elders felt that they needed to be rebuilt.

But after Uncle Dashan checked, he felt that the foundation and exterior walls of the house could be retained, as long as the rotten beams were replaced and part of the walls were renovated, and there was no need to completely tear down and rebuild, so that the construction period would not be reduced, and a lot of labor costs could be saved, which would be beneficial to both parties.

"Dashan, this house will be handed over to you!" After a while, Yang Lao and Uncle Dashan reached an agreement and handed over the construction of the new house to Uncle Dashan.

"Elder Yang, don't worry, I'll help you get it in half a month at most. Knowing that the old man was busy checking in, Uncle Dashan patted his chest and smiled and promised.

There is no difficulty at all in this project, as long as the partially weathered walls are renovated, a dozen or so beams are replaced, and finally covered with tiles, which can be done in only five or six days, and the rest is to renovate the interior, lay a modern water and electricity pipe network, build bathrooms, install solar water heaters, and so on. This work is only three to five days' work.

Therefore, as long as the weather is good, there are no accidents, and half a month's construction period is enough, and soon Mr. Yang will be able to move in safely.

"That's great. Knowing that it would only take half a month to complete, Old Man Yang was very happy and immediately transferred the material money to Uncle Dashan.

…………………………

After dealing with the matter of renting a house, a few old men came to Zhang Feng's yard to drink tea, and looked at the superb tea trees planted by Zhang Feng, as well as the flowers and plants in the yard.

"Yo, Xiaofeng, you still have a gourd here!" Suddenly, Old Man Wang saw the gourd vine in the west of the yard, looked at it carefully, and was surprised, "Hey! This gourd seems to be a little different!"

"Hehe, it's really different, I remember that the general gourds can be harvested around mid-October, but the gourds of Xiaofeng's family are still green, and they seem to be still growing!"

"What a fuss are you guys, look at the things in Xiaofeng's yard, which ones are ordinary? Have you ever seen such a good wildflower blooming in late autumn? Have you ever seen such a good mutated tea tree?"

Hearing Grandpa Liu's words, the two old men nodded thoughtfully, everyone knew that Zhang Feng must have his own method, not only the vegetables are planted well, but even the flowers and plants are so beautiful.

"Xiaofeng, your gourds are good, how about giving me two when they are ripe?" Seeing the good-looking green gourds, Old Man Wang asked Zhang Feng with a smile.

"No problem, you can choose when the time comes. Just a few gourds, Zhang Feng readily agreed.

"Hehe, Lao Wang, are you going to make a literary gourd, right? When the time comes, make a few more, remember to divide two for me!" Old Man Yang knew that Wang Lao liked literary games and calligraphy and painting, so he said with a smile.

"You old thing, aren't you a fish farmer, what do you want gourds??" Wang Lao glared at Yang Lao, and then asked.

"Hehe, can't I hang by the fish tank?"

"Tyrannical Heavenly Things, really Violent Heavenly Things!"

"Hehe, I'm willing, you just say you don't give it!!" Yang Lao raised his head and said proudly.

"Okay, I'll reward you two when the time comes!" Seeing the old guy playing a scoundrel, Wang Lao shook his head, he could only break the fortune and avoid disasters, otherwise he didn't know what kind of moth was going to come out.

…………

"Xiaofeng, your gourd is estimated to be harvested in about half a month. Wang Lao knew more about gourds, so he slowly explained to Zhang Feng the key knowledge of gourd harvesting, preservation and so on.

The harvesting and preservation of the gourd is not simple, if it is not harvested and stored in accordance with a certain method, the gourd that is picked is easy to mold, the skin grows mildew, the value of the gourd is greatly reduced, and it cannot be made into handicrafts, it can only be used to make some rough tools, such as wine jugs, water scoops and so on.
