Before Dongfang Huajin left home last time, he paid thirty taels of silver and bought the old house of the village chief's family. This old house www.biquge.info is a small farmhouse courtyard, with three main houses and two wings, and a courtyard of two minutes. Rarely, there is also a well of good water quality.

The location is also very good, just in the westernmost part of the village, at the foot of the mountain, next door to the hometown of a family with a very good character. Last time, the Oriental Painting Brocade family could be successfully separated, and this clan elder also made a lot of efforts and stood on her side.

It is said that more than 60 years ago, the ancestors of the Dongfang family fled from the Central Plains. There were thirteen brothers and five sisters, the eldest of whom was only fifteen years old, and the youngest brother was only five years old. It is said that it was because the whole family offended the local bullies and was chased all the way. Fathers, mothers, grandparents, uncles, aunts, and aunts lost their lives and separated on the road to cover them.

Eighteen brothers and sisters went through a lot of hardships and finally came to Cuizhu Bay, which was uninhabited at the beginning. A family of eighteen people took root here and multiplied. In today's Cuizhuwan, the people in the entire village are actually blood relatives, and none of them have five suits.

At the beginning, there were eighteen brothers and sisters, some of whom were brothers and sisters of the same mother, and some were cousins and cousins. And the grandfather of Oriental Painting, and the father of the village chief, are brothers-in-law. The original boss was the father of the village chief, and the fifth child at the beginning was the grandfather of Oriental Painting.

The house bought by Oriental Painting Brocade is the first home that Grandpa settled here, and Grandpa Tai and the eldest and fifth eldest at the time, as well as the third among the sisters, are the brothers and sisters of the same mother. The first home built here for a family of four was a thatched house. Two years later, the thatched huts were demolished and adobe houses were built. Later, the adobe house was replaced by a brick house.

The house looks very dilapidated, to say the least it is thirty-five years old, but fortunately it is a blue brick house, which is quite sturdy. When he bought this house, the village chief also organized more than a dozen people to help clean up the old house. In particular, the tiles on the roof were carefully cleaned and replaced with a lot of new tiles.

Of course, the cost of buying a new tile is naturally from the Oriental painting brocade. It's just that the labor is free, and the people found by the village chief have to give the village chief a little face. Moreover, the rural people do each other a favor, build a house or repair a house, and generally do not need to be paid.

This house, the village chief originally wanted to leave it for the youngest grandson to marry. Seeing that the Dongfang Huajin family was really pitiful, she sighed and gave up this house to her family. That's it, anyway, the youngest grandson is only ten years old, and I'll talk about it later!

This house is very nice, sitting north facing south, with plenty of sunshine. Moreover, two fruit trees are planted in the courtyard, a pear tree and a begonia tree. Both of these trees are more than 10 years old and are said to be fruitful every year.

Dongfang Huajin liked it very much, and because of these two trees, she did not hesitate to buy this house for thirty taels of silver. Originally, the old village chief planned to sell fifteen taels of silver, but Dongfang Huajin insisted on selling thirty taels of silver.

In addition to these two trees, the land, the location, and the neighbors with good character are worth the price! The most important thing is that behind this house, there is a large area of wasteland.

Originally, it was because I had fled the country, so I chose to build a house near the mountains as much as possible. This is just in case, if the situation is not right, you can hide in the mountains in the shortest possible time. Over the years, the world has been much more stable, and the enemies of more than 60 years ago don't have to scruples. Therefore, the people of the village went to the east end of the village to build houses, as far away from the mountains as possible, and closer to the village road into the city.

At the west end of this village, it has become an old house that is not very popular, and most of the people who still live here are old people, as well as those whose families are poor and cannot afford to build a new house. However, the idea of Oriental Painting Brocade is just the opposite, she likes the bad environment in the west of the village, quiet, few people, good air, close to the mountains!

When Dongfang Huajin bought this house, he paid another 30 taels of silver and bought all the more than 30 acres of wasteland behind the house. One or two pieces of silver per acre, more than 30 acres, and the old village chief is the master of 30 acres.

This time, the first thing Dongfang Huajin did when he came back was to ask a mason to buy green bricks and enclose the more than 30 acres of wasteland with green bricks. And, on the wasteland, a small house with two entrances was built. The new house is close to the old house, and there is a three-point courtyard between it and the old house. The old house and the new house are connected and can exist independently.

The new house, with the same layout as the first and second entrances, is five main rooms, three each in the east and west wings. After the new house was built, only the eldest brother and sister-in-law lived in the old house; The first entry into the new house is occupied by the parents of Dongfang Huajin, and the seven-year-old brother Dongfang Jinzhi; The second into the courtyard, there are four sisters living in Oriental Painting Brocade.

Oriental Huajin's mother's surname is Gan, and she is called Gan.

However, in order to hide people's eyes and ears and avoid being targeted by bandits and wickeders, all the blue brick walls were coated with a thick layer of yellow mud. Around the house, a large number of tall trees were transplanted, and the house was hidden under the leafy trees. If you look at it from a distance, or stand outside the wall, you don't know that the house is a blue brick house.

This time to build the house, Oriental Painting Brocade invited a lot of people to help, but it was all completed in a month's effort. After the house was built, it was necessary to invite someone to warm the house, the village chief, Lizheng, the patriarch, as well as several clan elders, and the elderly over fifty years old. Every family in the village, except for a few families with a very poor relationship, invited one person to the banquet.

And the uncle's family of Oriental Painting Brocade, as well as the two families who followed the family and oppressed the Oriental Painting Brocade family, Oriental Painting Brocade did not intend to invite. These two families, young and old, are not good people. Before, the eldest aunt wanted to sell the eldest sister and the second sister of the Oriental Painting Brocade, and the two families were accomplices. On weekdays, the man follows the uncle and the two cousins, and the woman obeys the words of the aunt as if it were a holy decree.

The women of these two families, in the past days, wantonly bullied the mother of Dongfang Huajin. The boys bully the eldest brother and younger brother of Oriental Painting, and the girls bully her older sister and younger sister. All in all, these two families are bad embryos and loyal lackeys of the uncle's family.

Such a family, Oriental Painting Brocade resolutely opposes inviting them to the family to participate in the banquet.

Gan was anxious: "Xiaocao, don't please, okay?" In case, if they hold a grudge, it will not be good for our family. ”

The second sister was also very worried: "Yes, Xiaocao, why don't you invite a piece?" Anyway, just a few more pairs of chopsticks! ”

The eldest sister glanced at the second sister, and said dissatisfiedly: "I said second sister, why are there only a few more pairs of chopsticks?" Those families are not ordinary people, which time the people in the village invited a banquet, and when did the two families not go together as a family? ”

The eldest brother Ye Mao nodded: "That's right, even if the whole family goes, they always have to go to the stove room to steal food, go to my bedroom to steal money or something." Moreover, every time something comes out, saying that the banquet is not rich enough, etc. Moreover, these two families used to oppress us like that, and the third sister was right, such a family, it's better not to invite them! ”

The second brother Jinzhi also expressed his opinion: "What the third sister said is very right, such a person can't be invited!" Mother, second sister, your heart is too soft, and your courage is too small! Those people, please or not, they will hate us. ”

Dongfang Huajin looked at the eldest brother and the second brother, and nodded with satisfaction: "That's right, from this time on, our family will resolutely cut off contact with those three families!" Such a person has long formed an irresolvable grudge with our family, and it is necessary to not get along with each other for old age! ”

Dongfang Qi'an listened silently for a long time, and finally made the final decision: "That kind of person, don't please!" Otherwise, please come to the house, it is to lure the wolf into the house and make trouble for yourself! ”

My father is so open-minded, and Oriental Painting Brocade is very gratified, and the heart that has been hanging in the air has finally come to fruition. Originally, she had always been worried that her father would be a foolish person, a pedantic person, and a person who didn't know how to be flexible.

It's no wonder that she, after all, in the past days, the people of Wufang had a miserable life because of his blind tolerance, blind concession, and blind compromise. It is estimated that the experience of being trapped in the depths of the desert, and the last time she was sold to the Ma family, the eldest sister and the second sister were almost sold, made him wake up, right?

"Alas, it seems that the previous plan was a bit redundant!"

Oriental Painting Brocade couldn't help but sigh in his heart.

Dongfang Qi'an returned from the desert, and the marshal had already promoted him to a hundred households, but not many people knew about this appointment, only five or six.

Dongfang Huajin proposed to wait for three months later, when my father returned to the barracks from home, and then officially announced it. Because, she wants to use this to test people's hearts. also let my father see a little more clearly and figure out whether his so-called relatives can be regarded as relatives.

Also, those people in the village, bare-ass brothers who grew up with their fathers, and a few others, are worthy of being treated as brothers and friends.

She told her concerns and plans to the marshal and military advisors.

When they heard this, they both agreed and resolutely supported her.
