Hua Changnian's family let out the wind and collected stones, how many were collected. Not only their own village, but also other villages.

Suddenly, the idle people have new entries. It's just that the village has long been cleaned, and it is full of people who go to the foot of the mountain to carry stones. All rushed to the south, adults and children went into battle, and a car was transported to the edge of Hua Changnian's home.

Within three days, there were also a few stone trucks on the dirt road between the villages, and after another day, there were more cars.

Although the road is a little farther, this is a business without capital, and the whole family can get a dozen cars a day.

Because of this, the money in Wan's hand flowed out quickly, and it was settled on the spot, and a cart of stones was poured into ten cents.

Hua Changnian and Hua Yun are the main force in building the wall. In fact, Hua Yun is the main force, and Hua Changnian follows her steps and mud.

Because the foundation was not dug, Huayun thickened the wall from scratch, and the foundation was strong even without a foundation.

Hua Changnian looked at the thick wall that was more than half an arm's length and felt that his courtyard would not collapse in a hundred years. Usually people are just the same thickness as his hand.

It didn't take long for Wan's money bag to stand up. Hua Yun thought about it and went into the mountain again, except for the pheasant and hare, and brought back a big wild boar.

This time she came back after it was dark, avoiding people all the way, lest someone come to see the excitement again.

Wan Shi was dumbfounded and pointed to the chicken shed: "My mother complained twice, it's not that I really don't have money." Ten eggs a day, the newly bought chickens lay more and more eggs, and they can sell rabbits. Why did you go to the mountains again? It's too dangerous. ”

Hua Yun thought about it and said, "Wild boar blood is delicious. ”

Wan Shi looked at the big wild boar that was still humming and unharmed, and wiped his tears alone at Hua Changnian: "Don't look at our Yun'er, she doesn't talk much, she looks cold, but she is a good child and knows how to be considerate." ”

"No, the clouds and the rain are all with you, the heart is soft, and the temperament is good. You see that Yu'er also gave Hua Xiang'er buns to eat, and she was bullied by her before. Our family Yun'er didn't speak, she remembered things in her heart, she was filial to you, and she felt sorry for you to be anxious for money. ”

Wan Shi smirked at him: "Isn't it distressing for you?" ”

"It's all distressed, it's all distressed, our children are all good."

The sky was bright, Hua Changnian and Hua Lei took their newly bought board car with a tightly covered wild boar, and hurriedly went to the county seat while there was no one on the road in the village.

When he came back, Hua Lei didn't care about eating and drinking, and went directly to the school. Hua Changnian gave Wan fifteen taels of silver.

"I went straight to the biggest restaurant, cyclamen. Seeing that it was still alive, people added a few extra dollars. ”

The two of them were very satisfied, but Hua Yun frowned: "Why is it so much cheaper than the tiger?" ”

The tiger is 100 taels, and the wild boar is only 15 taels, and they are all about the same size.

Hua Changnian smiled: "How can it be compared?" The tiger is full of treasures, and there is no waste at all. What about wild boars. That is, the meat can be eaten, and the rich people want to have it fresh in their mouths. Of course it can't be compared. ”

Hua Yun touched his chin, he had to go into the mountain.

Wan Shi hurriedly pulled her: "You can stop." Fifteen legs are enough. No further entry into the mountain. ”

Hua Yun thought that it would not be too late for her to go when the money was not enough.

Early this morning, someone from another village came to deliver a few carts of stones, and chattered with Hua Changnian: "How many stones do you want for your family?" There are not many people around our village, and it is not easy to find it in the first two days. ”

Hua Changnian stretched out his head and looked at the thickened version of the courtyard wall, and he couldn't figure out what Hua Yun wanted to toss. sighed in his heart, whatever, as long as Hua Yun doesn't speak, he will continue to accept it.

Stones are also good things, and they can... Yard wall.

Hua Changnian looked to the east, the mountain is a stone, how many good things are on it, so this stone is also a good thing.

"Ahem, how many more stones do you have to collect for this?"

"It's still in storage, you just have to send it with confidence, my family won't... Old man? ”

The old man put his hands behind his back, looking concerned.

Hua Changnian didn't know what to say, since Hua Yu asked Hua Xiang'er's words, as well as Hua Yun's speculation, he had a knot in his heart: The Li family wanted to force Hua Yun to death and sold Hua Yu, did the old man Hua know about it?

It's okay if I don't know, but if I knew...?

Hua Changnian wanted to ask, but he was afraid of getting the answer he didn't want to hear, so he was very entangled in his heart, and he didn't open his mouth for a while.

The stone seller pushed the cart away, Hua Yun didn't come out at home at this time, the three children went to school, and Hua Changnian faced the old man Hua alone.

The two were silent.

After a while, the old man asked, "Why do you buy so much?" Is this going to get up the house? ”

Hua Changnian shook his head: "It's just to build a courtyard wall." ”

The old man also saw the courtyard wall that was as thick as the city wall, and his mind was complicated, could it be that such a thick wall was also guarded against his own family?

Hua Changnian said unintentionally: "After all, the children in the family are small, and the courtyard wall is safe." ”

The old man asked, "Ten cents in a car?" How much money do you have to sprinkle out on this day? Is there enough money to sell tigers? ”

Hua Changnian's eyes flashed slightly: "The money is long gone, what else can I have left after buying such a large piece of land." The child's mother raised more than 100 chickens and lived by selling eggs. ”

People in the village basically know about this, and there are also red-eyed sour people, who come to sell stones and meet Wan's when they talk sourly.

Wan's has a good temperament, and he doesn't turn his face, and he said enthusiastically, if your family also wants to raise chickens and take eggs to help you hatch, but there is no guarantee that a few will be produced, and the eggs that hatch from the chickens will be given back, and you don't need to be paid.

It makes people's faces sneer. In particular, Wan also showfully dragged them to see the chicken shed. Such a big chicken shed, clean and clean, chicken poop keeps shoveling out all day long. Who has Wan's kung fu and patience, just raise a few dozen or so at home to satisfy their cravings.

After that, no matter how sour it was, he also took it away, not because he was afraid that Hua Changnian would get angry, but Wan's was too enthusiastic, and he chased after him for several days to help hatch the chicks.

It's funny and strange to see Huayun, it's really good and makes people lose their temper.

After a period of silence, the old man Hua seemed to be careless and said: "Huayun is a good one, can you go up the mountain and get some down?" ”

Hua Changnian felt uncomfortable: "It's easy to stay in the mountains, maybe when the tree falls down, it will be smashed." ”

Old man Hua couldn't help but look at Hua Changnian's leg and coughed embarrassedly.

After standing for a long time, Hua Changnian just didn't ask him.

The old man thought and said, "You're good, I... It's reassuring. ”

Hua Changnian still didn't speak.

"Ahem, your sister... Changfang said that the people, it's decided, it's Xiao Chenzhuang's, then the future life looks good..."

Hua Changnian moved a few scattered stones to the middle.

"Da Lang, I also said that my daughter-in-law, there are three Zhuangzi separated from our village, and the girl is good..."

The flower grows and picks up a handful of grass.

"One end of the family wants to marry, and the other wants to marry. While preparing the dowry, building a new house... Money is tight..."

Hua Chang thought for a moment, smiled bitterly, and picked up a handful of grass.

"I can't help it. The Chen family's family is much better than ours, and your sister will have a hard time after the dowry is thin..."

So he sold his daughter to give her a dowry?

"The girl's father and mother said that if there is no house, the marriage will be stopped..."

My house has already moved out, and there is such a large piece of land in the backyard.

"Alas, it's hard to be a father and mother, it's not over if you bother to pull it hard, and you have to worry about it until you die... How can there be a father who doesn't care for his son, I think when you were a child, every time your father came back, he put you around his neck and rode a big horse, you giggled..."

The old man Hua carefully recalled the two or three things that Hua Changnian had been thinking about since he was a child, and the movements in Hua Changnian's hands slowly stopped, and his eyes turned red.

"Alas, it's all my father who can't stand you, but after all, we are father and son, and we have a constant blood relationship after dividing the sect... You can help Daddy..."

Hua Changnian squatted on the ground and was silent for a long time.

The old man continued: "Dad is eccentric, but you also know Daddy's thoughts, Dad is looking forward to having an official in the family in this life, and the threshold of the entire Hua family is not mentioned?" If the eldest ancestor wins, will Yun'er Yu'er say that her relatives will also rise with the tide? The official master's niece, choosing a relative is not just against the mud legs. Long thoughts, the ancestors of our Hua family have also been officials, or the ancestors of our branch, the ancestral training let us start again, this is what my father has remembered in his heart since he was a child, and his father has been thinking about this little bit in his life... The family is in a hurry, and the family is all tossed, how can the eldest ancestor have the money to take the exam next year... Dad has been looking forward to it all his life, and Xiucai's in-laws will definitely be able to win it next year, and the examiner is his fellow countryman... You can help Daddy..."

Hua Changnian lowered his head and couldn't see clearly.

The old man bent his head slightly: "Huh? ”

Hua Changnian: "..."

"This courtyard wall is in such a hurry? Why can't you stop the small two-foot courtyard wall? Can't you use the money to buy stones to help your father? Daddy is not as good as a stone? Yes? ”

After a long time, Hua Changnian stood up and hung his head: "I'll think about it first." ”

He turned around and walked home.

The old man breathed a sigh of relief, and shouted behind him: "We are father and son." When will it really be, will Dad still help you? ”

Hua Changnian entered the house with a confused face.

Wan was counting the eggs in the urn, but he didn't pay attention: "Why did you come back?" No one sells stones anymore? ”

Hua Changnian sat down on the chair and didn't move for a long time.

Wan Shi saw that something was wrong: "What's wrong?" It's like losing my soul. ”

Hua Changnian hesitated for a long time, and said about the old man Hua looking for him: "You say, should I help?" ”

Wan Shi didn't have a good face, but she knew that Hua Changnian still had feelings for Old Man Hua, and that father was biological.

"You can do it yourself."

Angry is angry, if Hua Changnian insists, she will definitely obey, although she is a little aggrieved.

Hua Changnian had a headache: "I just can't make up my mind." ”

Wan Shi thought for a while: "If you help buy a dowry, don't even think about it, didn't you want to sell Yu'er to her in the first place?" If it's to help build the house, it's your own nephew..."

Hua Changnian nodded.

Hua Yun came out of the house and entered the hall, and asked helplessly: "After giving the silver, do you know whether to do a dowry or build a house?" ”

Hua Changnian Wan looked at each other.

Asked in unison, "Then what do you say you should do?" ”

Hua Yun stretched out his hand and pointed outside: "Oh, if you want a stone, give it for nothing." ”

I really dare to smash their room in the middle of the night.

Hua Chang thought in his heart, definitely not.

Wan snickered, good idea.

"This, this is not good, what should I say?"

Hua Yun smiled angrily, is it not easy for this begged person to do it?

"Then let my grandmother go. How is it also her stepdaughter, a half-parent grandson, and she should come to the door to congratulate her. ”

Hua Changnian looked at her dumbfounded for a long time: "Why do you have to touch your own milk?" ”

Hua Yun's expression moved, did this guess? Looking at Wan Shi again, he also looked thoughtful.

"That's right," Hua Changnian clapped his hands and said excitedly: "You have been confused for all those years, is it your own mother accompanying you?" That's why you learned these skills? Your own grandmother kissed you, and gave you a head? ”

Hua Yun patted his head, this head.

"Can't tell."

Hua Changnian and Wan Shi immediately exchanged a sparkling look, absolutely. Yun'er is blessed, it must be her own mother who protects her in the dark and teaches her skills.

Hua Yun's face was quite miserable, so let's go build a wall.

Suddenly there was a cry of Hua Lei outside the door: "Dad, mother, eldest sister, come out, Doctor Gu is here." ”
