Build a house
It is said that after the heavy snowfall, although there are certain sequelae, with the opening of the government a while ago to release grain, the land boundary where the famine occurred has been continuously alleviated, and the stone pressed on the heart has also fallen to the ground.

The aunt of the Spring and Autumn Period gave birth to a big fat boy two days after the uncle went back, saying that there were more than six catties, and the mother and child were safe.
Because the child is still young, there is no name, can only be the baby's baby's scream, the death rate of children in ancient times is relatively high, the child's name is over the age of one, although the Spring and Autumn Period is a little disappointed, I don't know the baby's name, but it can't stop her excitement, she came to ancient times for so long, but also the first time to see a newborn.
Because Gao Qing came over with a carriage to report the good news, although he ran back not long after leaving, he was in good spirits sewing happy events, and Chunqiu looked at his uncle's high-spirited appearance, and his heart was also happy.
Yang Li was anxious about his daughter's situation, and after instructing Gao Qing for a few words, he went back to the house directly to get two clothes, and took Chunqiu to follow Gao Qing to Linfang.
That's right, there are so many people in the Yang family, Yang Li didn't bring anyone, he took Chunqiu directly, Chunqiu was stunned when she was called by her grandmother to get into the car, because she didn't know why her grandmother wanted to take her, and it was boring to stay at home, Chunqiu just thought for a second, and then directly got into the carriage with Yang Li.
As for the reason why Yang Li took Spring and Autumn with him, it was nothing more than that she thought that her good granddaughter was a little golden boy and a person with great blessings, and the ancient people were superstitious, and Yang Li also hoped that Spring and Autumn would bring some good luck to this newborn baby.
When Yang Li left, he took a few hens with him, and seeing that the chicken rack was about to be empty again, Yang Li planned to buy some back at the beginning of spring.
The two stayed in Linfang County for two days, and then hurried back, the reason was very simple, the family was going to build a house.
Although the cold weather of winter has not passed, and people are still wrapped in cotton clothes and have not changed out, the enthusiasm for building a house is very high.
Most of the houses in ancient times were mud houses made of mud wrapped in fine sand and wood chips, because the ancient brick-burning technology was not good, and that kind of red brick had not yet appeared.
However, in ancient times, there was brick and tile technology, just like the previous grandfather Yang's house, which used that kind of brick and tile.
In fact, bricks and tiles are different things, tiles appeared and were used in the Western Zhou Dynasty and the Spring and Autumn Period, bricks appeared in the Warring States Period, but large-scale application was in the Wei, Jin, Southern and Northern Dynasties periods.
The Yang family built a house this time, which is to spend a lot of money to build a better house, and it also saves manpower and material resources to renovate every year.
The location of the new house is particular, but the Yang family is built on the original basis, naturally there is no need to re-locate the site, but the house is demolished, there is no place to live, Yang Li total, directly borrowed the ancestral house of Grandpa Yang's family to live temporarily.
Yuan simply packed up two clothes to keep for a change of clothes, and the family moved over the next day.
To build a house, you must first lay the foundation, the firmer the foundation, the safer the house, the day the foundation was laid, the spring and autumn also followed Yang Weibai over.
Looking at the big pit that was digging deeper and deeper, Chunqiu took two steps back in fear, for fear that he would accidentally fall into it.
In addition to the two carpenters and bricklayers invited in Montenegro Town, the rest of the people are from the village of Yangjia Village, like the mason, the skilled workers cost 60 Wen a day, and the remaining people who do hard work are 40 Wen a day, the Yang family because of the many houses built, and it is three at the same time, please a lot of people, before the separation of the family has been said, this house is naturally the money of each family, when the time comes to build what you want to build, you will decide.
The Yuan family is not short of money, so they naturally want to build a better house, and they want to be able to live in it before the beginning of spring, so their family employs the most people.
Because of the money spent before, the Gu family finally persuaded Yang Weimin, who wanted to build a good house, and the two built the cheapest mud embryo house, and Yang Li came according to the best, because in the New Year, Yang Weisong was going to marry a daughter-in-law, and Yang Li was planning to build it all in one go, and it would save next year, although Yang Li said that he would live with Yang Weisong when he split up before, but after all, she was not yet at the age when she couldn't walk and let people serve, she was ready to live alone with Old Man Yang when the time came, and when she couldn't move, she took turns at the three sons' houses.
Building a house is not a package of food, the Yang family is responsible for people's breakfast and lunch, and the cooking is made by the three of them in turn.
Spring and Autumn feel that building a house is a hard work, if you don't eat enough, how can you have the strength to work, although you can't do big fish and meat for them every day, but you can still buy it with pork intestine bone broth, and everyone knows how to deal with pig intestines, and it is delicious and not expensive.
Yuan talked about this idea to Yang Li, Yang Li nodded directly without thinking about it, and every day she asked Yang Weisong to go to the town to buy bones and pig intestines to be used, and then the next day she made roast pig intestines and bone broth with mixed noodles and steamed buns for the people who worked.
After digging the foundation for three days, the official building of the house began, and the people mixed the fine sand and soil sifted from the river, and kept the burned green bricks to build directly, the ancient people were not lazy, especially the food cooked by the Yang family was still very appetizing, and everyone worked hard.
Today it was Yuan's turn to cook, and when he got up early in the morning, Yuan was busy in the kitchen, and after getting dressed in the spring and autumn, he also rushed over to help.
"Mother, what are you eating today?" Chunqiu walked into the kitchen and asked Yuan Shi who was making noodles on the side.
Yuan Shi didn't say anything, "bone broth with steamed buns" After speaking, he kneaded the noodles vigorously.
Eat every day, how greasy, Chunqiu complained in his heart, when he saw the fish on the side, it was like a period of electricity in his mind, and when he touched it, Chunqiu had a good idea in his heart.
"Mother, let's make fish buns" It just so happened that the fish that his father brought back yesterday did not have small spines. Stomping is just right to use a live bread bun.
"Huh?" Yuan Shi turned his head directly, looked at the dead fish on the side, and said uncertainly, "I'm afraid it's not enough to eat, these are only two"
If the two fish that Yang Weibai came back with were all cut, he would be able to take a little more than a pound of meat, Yuan Shi thought about the man in his twenties, and shook his head in his heart, afraid that it would not be enough to eat.
Chunqiu turned around and said, "Mother, don't you still have some cabbage for the winter at home? If you don't like to eat steamed buns, you can also eat steamed buns and drink soup."
“… That's right, Qiu'er, you go to the backyard and come back with a cabbage, and your mother will chop up the fish" Yuan lowered his head and thought about it, and then agreed, indeed, eat pork intestines and bone broth every day, and it's good to change the taste occasionally.
After Chunqiu heard her mother's consent, she went out directly, and then brought back a not small cabbage from the backyard, and threw away the dried leaves outside, leaving the green shoots inside.
After Yuan finished chopping the fish, he threw the minced fish into the basin on the side and handed it to Chunqiu, while he kneaded the noodles that had been reconciled on the side and rolled out the skin. Chunqiu took it, chopped the cabbage again, mixed the two together, and finally carried it to the back and mixed it with seasonings.
The mother and daughter were busy with the stuffing, the other was busy rolling the skin, and when the filling was adjusted in the spring and autumn, Yuan also rolled out the bun skin.
The next steamed buns were very fast, putting the steamed buns in two cages and the steamed buns in one drawer into the pot to simmer, Yuan began to stew the two fish heads on the side again, and Chunqiu was squatting under the stove while busy burning the fire, while observing the maturity of the buns in the cage drawer......
By noon, Yuan had put all the prepared meals into the basket. Leading the Spring and Autumn on the side, the two rushed to the Yang family's compound.
"Oops, Sister-in-law Yuan is here"
"It's so fragrant, what did Sister Yuan do this time?"
"Niece Qiu'er, what's in your arms?"
"Sister Yuan came to see Yang Er..."
…… As soon as the two of them entered the compound, there were all kinds of ridicule and jokes around them, Chunqiu was young and thin-skinned, so he walked over with his head down, no one cared, but Yuan was different, Yuan replied to the people on the side with a smile, these people are all villagers in the village, and the relationship is also that of Chunqiu's uncle and uncle.
"The steamed buns and fish buns made today, as well as the boiled fish soup, you can eat more if you like" Yuan finished with a smile, then walked to the side where Yang Weibai was resting, handed the basket to Yang Weibai, and motioned him to divide things.
Yang Weibai stretched out his hand to take it, then walked to the side, lifted the white cloth on the basket, and said with a smile, "Everyone is welcome, you can eat whatever you want, and when you are done, you will go to Qiu'er's fish soup to drink."
"Yang Lao Er, your food here is so good, I can't bear to leave when I see that the house is built."
"Hehe, then don't go," Yang Weibai said with a smile. Then there was a lot of coaxing around, and Chunqiu sat behind him, also smiling and raising the corners of his mouth.
The basket of steamed buns was quickly divided, during which many people who didn't like fish buns came to ask for a bowl of soup and prepared to eat steamed buns, because the fishy smell of fish soup was not as heavy as fish buns, so everyone liked Yuan's milky white fish soup very much.
"Uncle Da Niu, do you want to drink soup?" Chunqiu looked at the uncomfortable Da Niu on the side, and directly opened the jar and filled a bowl.
Da Niu nodded his head, and then embarrassedly took the fish soup from Chunqiu's hand, because of Xiu'er's cousin's relationship, Brother Da Niu didn't need money to come over to help.
"Uncle Da Niu, come and sit" Because of Xiu'er's cousin's seniority, Spring and Autumn all call Uncle Da Niu, but this generation is also chaotic, Spring and Autumn are too lazy to change, so they just shouted.
"Eh" Da Niu held a steamed bun in one hand and a soup in the other, and sat next to Chunqiu.
Chunqiu thought of Xiu'er's cousin, and hurriedly turned his head and asked Da Niu on the side, "Uncle Da Niu, is Xiu'er's cousin's health okay?" I heard her grandma say that Xiu'er's cousin has been unable to eat recently because of her pregnancy.
"It's okay, I can eat now, and I don't feel uncomfortable" Da Niu seemed to think of something, and his smile was extraordinarily full.
"That's good..."Spring and Autumn nodded, it seems that morning sickness should be better.
Her mother Yuan went to talk to her father, and the boring Chunqiu and the big cow on the side chatted about some Xiu'er cousins, and when they finished lunch and were ready to work, Yuan called Chunqiu on the side to go home......
The house was almost built for more than 20 days, because some of the materials were old before, and it was not so troublesome to arrive, and before the spring came, everyone in the Yang family lived in a new house.
