Chapter 29: Upper Beam
Because there are many people working on the side of Haitang's family, although the house is big, the time to finish it is faster than that of Li Dani's family. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info The house is basically built, and the next most important step is to put up the beams. People in the countryside are very particular about this, if you don't build a house on the beam, the house is easy to be restless, so after looking at the day of the beam, Li Haitang got up early in the morning to get busy. In addition to the Gu Su family and the women of the Zhao family, all the old and the young were dispatched, and several cauldrons were set up in the small courtyard of the Gu family.
The people in the village still said that they had come to take the gift money and come to ask for a good time.
In their eyes, Li Yulin's big house is really magnificent, and there is no better house in these ten miles and eight villages.
There are many people who come, and there are many people who talk miscellaneously, and many people are speculating where Li Yulin got so much money to build a house?
"This house is magnificent." A woman with a blue cloth scarf wrapped around her head said, her face couldn't hide her envy, thinking about when one day, she would be able to live in such a big house.
"No, my old man said that this house would cost at least sixty or seventy taels of silver to build! I've never seen so much silver. Another woman said.
"Hey, you don't know this, I heard that Li Yulin found a good owner in the town, and the owner bought him with this silver. Although he built a big house, he will be a slave of someone else's family in the future! Another said mysteriously.
"Really? For the sake of this house, I sold myself, it was too worthless! Although our countrymen have a hard life, they are free at all, and if they sell this to others, they will not be able to be their own masters in the future! Someone sighed again!
"You're not right. I heard that this Li Yulin hooked up with this widow who didn't know when to move to our village, so he had the money to build a house! This widow is the widow who can't get this money! ”
"Impossible...... Where did this widow get so much money? ”
"You don't know this, this widow is the wife of a big family, I don't know what happened to settle down here, you say, this rich family's aunt's wife, don't you have to save a few hundred taels of silver? The dozens of taels in our eyes are not a matter in the eyes of others, I heard that she committed a big crime of stealing people in a big family, and it is estimated that the child she brought ......" The man couldn't help but say happily, as if he had the absolute truth.
Li Haitang was so angry when he heard this that he really wanted to go up and slap her a few times, this woman's mouth was too owed, and her face looked like this was the truth. Today, he is on the beam of his own house, that is a big deal, this person should obediently close his mouth when he comes to eat and drink, instead of pouring dirty water on people.
"Don't say it, don't say it......"
The sharp-eyed man saw Li Haitang coming over angrily, and hurriedly stopped the person who was describing the voice.
The man didn't know why, and thought they were excited to hear it.
originally wanted to give her a big mouth, but Li Haitang was short and short, how could they hit an adult's face? I picked up the stick and threw it hard at the woman's waist.
"Ouch," cried out in a pig-killing voice, and the cheerful woman howled, "Oh my mother, it hurts me to death, who doesn't have long eyes!" ”
"Aunt Yang, what's wrong with you, I heard a miscellaneous dog barking here just now, I'm afraid of disturbing everyone's interest, so why don't you bring a stick and come over to take a look." Li Haitang said sweetly.
When this person heard this, he immediately realized that what Li Haitang said was his own, and he just wanted to refute it, but he reacted again, as soon as he opened his mouth, he confirmed the matter of this miscellaneous dog, so he had to smile awkwardly and said: "Begonia, you are dazzled, there are a few aunts talking here." ”
Li Haitang nodded, thoughtful: "Did I read it wrong?" Ladies and gentlemen, you have to stay away when you see it, but I heard that because of the fact that this miscellaneous dog flies everywhere, it is usually covered with lepers, and finally becomes a leper dog, disgusting and smelly! As he spoke, he covered his nose and fanned it.
"You...... You! ”
"What's wrong with me? Aunt Yang, why are you so pale? Are you sick? Or are you scared by the leper dog? Li Haitang continued to ask with a smile, with a harmless expression on his face, and the words asked were intimate.
The women who had been listening to her here quietly dispersed, and no one was still here, and they always felt that the little girl Begonia meant something.
After all, the woman did not say anything, and left in a hurry, not even bothering to eat or drink.
This person Li Haitang knows, is the daughter of Li Dani's aunt, Li Haitang doesn't think she said these things for no reason. I'm afraid that Li Dani's credit is indispensable behind this, taking advantage of the time to block people, this mind is really vicious!
The Yang family left in a gloomy manner, and Li Haitang didn't have time to investigate at this time, this is about to be an auspicious time, and this is to worship the heavens and worship the ancestors. The chicken, duck, fish, and raw pork prepared in advance were all placed on the table, and Li Yulin and another bricklayer took the liquor and sprinkled it to the sky.
After worshipping heaven and earth, the girder that had been tied with a rope early was slowly dropped to the roof of the main house in the carpenter's auspicious words.
"Congratulations to the main family for starting a new house, and I'll choose the pillars and beams. The wooden dragon is born on the high mountains, and you are the king when you grow up in the high mountains. The thick ones are used for the middle columns, and the straight ones are used for the beams. The size and length do not need to be measured, and the size of the square circle is the same. ”
The carpenter's auspicious words were finished, and the beam was firmly erected.
The bricklayer and the carpenter went up to the girder one after another, put the grain picking bag in the middle of the girder, and covered it with a red cloth, and hung down the red cloth bag containing the grain prepared in advance in the middle of the beam, implying a bumper harvest of the main family. After all this was done, he sat down at one end of the girder, one in the east and one in the west.
This scene, Li Haitang is very excited, when she was a child in the last life, she was wandering in the countryside, whenever there is a beam, she can have a good meal, throw candy, white noodles and small dumplings She can always grab a lot, meet rich people, but also throw red envelopes, lucky, grab a few red envelopes, that is all money.
Although it is my own beam today, but adhering to the principle that fertilizer and water do not flow into the fields of outsiders, I can grab as much as I want! Cornmeal cakes, and copper coins one by one, how many can be grabbed! Li Dongmei Li Dongsheng had already been instructed by Li Haitang, and even Gu Yongjia changed into coarse cloth clothes and mixed in the crowd to prepare.
"Throw it here, throw it here." The voices came and went, no matter whether they grabbed it or not, they all shouted at the top of their voices.
Li Haitang is small and flexible, and she has many experiences in grabbing gluttony, just watch her scurrying in the direction of the carpenter and bricklayer throwing things, and the cloth bag hanging around her neck will hold a lot of things in a short time. Did the child who grabbed it look at her pitifully, and she pretended not to see it, joke, this is the fruit of her own labor!
The things thrown away are limited, mainly because the countryside is too poor, who is willing to throw everything away like this? Throw some meanings and make a lot of fun.
It's the adults' business, and my father said in the morning that I don't have to do anything by myself today, just eat and drink.
"Begonia, you're really amazing, you robbed so much." Zhao Xiaohua looked at Li Haitang enviously, and then looked at a cornmeal cake in her hand, Zhao Xiaohua felt more and more that Li Haitang was brave.
"What's amazing, I'm quick to play small, it's all a habit, I can grab more winter plums, isn't it just that I can eat more! I'm scared of poverty. Li Haitang said with a grin.
Zhao Xiaohua glanced at her: "The girl's family should speak gently." ”
Li Haitang was noncommittal, smiled, and turned around to find Li Dongsheng and Li Dongmei.
"Big sister, big sister." Li Dongsheng sighed excitedly, "Look, this is what we grabbed." ”
Good guys, it seems like there's more to it than you're here?
"Eldest sister, we didn't rob it, basically Brother Yongjia robbed it." Li Dongmei corrected.
"It's the same, Brother Yongjia said, we are a family, so what is his is ours." Li Dongsheng said again.
Li Haitang looked up at Gu Yongjia who was following them, his eyes were facing the sky, he didn't look at Li Haitang, and he didn't seem to hear what Li Dongsheng said.
Who is a family with you, Li Haitang muttered in his heart. pulled Zhao Xiaohua, who was already stunned, this little girl has to be a nymphomaniac every time she sees Gu Yongjia, really, I haven't seen her give birth to any immunity after seeing too much.
"Let's go, Xiaohua, let's go help serve the food."
Dongsheng Dongmei is taken care of by Gu Yongjia, so she should go and help do some work.
