Chapter 21: Empty

Qin Shu didn't care much about the environment, no matter how bad the environment was, she had stayed there. When she had finished looking, she drove the donkey cart in, bolted the gate, unloaded the cart, and let them graze in the yard, and then entered the three main houses.

After entering, Qin Shu found that the situation inside was worse than the outside, the room was empty, furniture, porcelain and other things were looted, and there was not even a bench left, which was cleaner than locusts transiting.

Only the earthen kang in the east and west houses remained, and another earthen kang collapsed, so that people could not sleep at all, and the thatched roof was also broken because it was not repaired, and a big hole was broken, and you could see the sky when you looked up.

Qin Shu sighed, this house is really uninhabitable. But that's fine, it just so happened that she knocked it down and rebuilt it according to her wishes.

Anyway, she has revealed a lot of wealth, but she doesn't have to hide it, otherwise, it will become a desire to cover up. As long as you live comfortably, why care what others think. Although she doesn't want to cause trouble, it doesn't mean that she is afraid of things.

Qin Shu walked out of the main room and went to two stone houses on the west side, one used as a kitchen and the other as a storage room. The thatched house was built early in the morning, and the stone house was built up by Qin's father with stones later, which was very strong, so the two stone houses were very well preserved, but the door panels were gone.

And there is really nothing in it except for the pot table, one large and one small iron pot and the steamed rice retort (zeng) that were originally installed on the pot table are gone, and the water tank that was originally placed next to the pot table has also disappeared together, think about it to know whose handwriting.

Qin Shu turned around, thought about it, and simply didn't clean it up, just stayed in the space for one night, and talked about the rest tomorrow!

Just thinking about it, Xiao Hei suddenly walked in slowly, chewing a piece of grass in his mouth, and yelled at Qin Shu twice.

Qin Shu didn't understand what he meant, and Xiao Hei was so anxious that he called out.

After guessing for a while, Qin Shu thought that it might be thirsty.

Sure enough, when Qin Shu brought out a basin of water from the space, Xiao Hei really stopped screaming, and jumped up to drink it.

Qin Shu put the basin they used before in front of Da Hei and Xiao Hei, and she entered the space to prepare a meal for herself, and only ate some porridge at noon, she was also hungry.

After dinner, Qin Shu rested early.

When she woke up the next day, after washing up and eating, Qin Shu went out of the space, only to find that Xiao Hei was staying in the kitchen, while Da Hei was guarding the kitchen door.

Qin Shu took some corn stalks and fed them, thinking that it was not a way to keep doing this, after all, there was no corn in this dynasty, and she was not ready to take out the corn seeds at present. Moreover, it is almost winter, and the little hay in the space is not enough for them to eat, so they have to prepare some reserve grain for the winter, either buy some grain and grass, or go to the mountains to cut some grass and come back. She even thought about planting some barley and rice in the space.

After feeding them, Qin Shu went out to Lizheng's house.

At this time, in addition to the Wang family, her two daughters-in-law were also at home, and after introducing each other and saying hello, Qin Shu explained her intentions.

"You want to build a house?" Wang asked in surprise.

Qin Shu nodded, and said helplessly: "The house at home is no longer inhabitable, the roof is rotten, there is not even a piece of furniture in the house, I can only spend one night in the kitchen last night." ”

When the Wang family heard this, with the temperament of the Qin Tie family, I am afraid that she would have moved all her things a long time ago, and the house has been abandoned for so many years, and it is easy to break, but she still said with some embarrassment: "Big niece, you want to build a house, this is a good thing, but the timing is not right." Now they are busy with the autumn harvest, and those who have no land at home also go out to help others, and there are basically few idle people, and it is not easy to find someone to help you. ”

Qin Shu frowned lightly and said, "Those masons don't come out to work either?" ”

Wang was stunned for a moment, and then said with a smile: "You kid, what kind of mason do you invite to build a house, ask the old men in the village to help you for a few days, and it's over, at most you can manage two meals a day, and it won't cost much." If you hire a mason, although it is better to build it, you will have to pay a lot for the work. ”

"As long as you can build the house quickly, it doesn't matter if you spend a little more money." Qin Shu said, "Seeing that the weather is about to get cold, I can't drag it out, and I plan to build a slightly better house myself." ”

Hearing this, Wang smiled and said, "Since this is the case, it will be easy to do." Daqinzhuang in the neighboring village, there is a mason, the craftsmanship is very good, there are more than a dozen people under the hand, although the price is more expensive, but the work is done quickly and well, we are in the back of the house is to find them to do, it is said that they often go to the town and the county to pick up work! It's a bit of a reputation. If you're not too expensive, I'll help you get a line. ”

"Then it's a nuisance." Qin Shu said gratefully, "It's just that where can I buy these green bricks and tiles?" ”

"Oh, it seems that my niece is really generous this time, but I underestimate you." When Wang heard this, he was impressed by Qin Shu again, and laughed and teased.

Qin Shu smiled disapprenously: "Where you live, you can't be sloppy, and no one can be wronged, right?" ”

Wang nodded, didn't say yes or no.

In fact, in her opinion, her eldest niece is indeed a bit extravagant, she doesn't know how to be thrifty and doesn't know how to live. Even if she has some money on hand, she can't spend it like this, right? If this continues, I am afraid that in a few years, the money in my hand will have to be spent.

Moreover, she is now alone, and she has also broken off her relationship with the Qin Tie family, and there is no one to support her, so if she is targeted, she will be in trouble.

However, it's none of her business, and the relationship between the two hasn't gotten that good.

Qin Shu didn't know what Wang thought in her heart, even if she knew, she didn't care, after all, everyone has their own attitude and way of life, she will not ask others to be the same as her, nor will she wronged herself to accommodate others, she wants to live a comfortable and free life in this life.

Even if she crossed over, Qin Shu did not plan to give up the retirement plan in her previous life, and still planned to find a place with beautiful mountains and rivers to retire, so she would appear in Xiaoqinzhuang, instead of going to a more prosperous area, or ambitiously wanting to do a big career.

After Qin Shu asked some more things she wanted to know, she went home and cleaned up the storage room next to the kitchen firstβ€”she lived here for the time being before the house was built.

She doesn't plan to live in the space all the time, and although the space is comfortable, she prefers to live outside, which makes her feel alive.

She also had to find a carpenter to make a plank bed and door, and then buy two water tanks, one large one in the yard and a small one in the kitchen, as well as pots, pans, tables and chairs.

She originally thought that she had bought a lot of things in the town, but now it seemed that it was far from enough, and she had to go to the town or the county if she had the chance.

From Xiaoqinzhuang to the county seat does not pass through Anhe Town, than to go to the town is not much farther, a total of only twenty or thirty miles away, the county seat is bigger and more prosperous, and the things are complete, so it is more convenient to go to the county.

There were carpenters in the village, and Qin Shu had lunch and went to Carpenter Sun's house.

This is one of the few people in the village who are not surnamed Qin, decades ago, his father dragged his family to Xiao Qinzhuang, because he knew how to carpenter, and he was honest, so he was allowed to live and became a member of Xiao Qinzhuang, after his father died, he passed on the craft to him, and now, his two sons are also helping him.

He is a good craftman, and people in the nearby villages like to ask him to make some furniture and utensils, repair doors and windows, etc., and occasionally, he will use a board truck to pull it to the market to sell.

When Qin Shu arrived at Carpenter Sun's house, he was doing carpentry work in the yard, their family did not have a few acres of land, the work in the field was basically over, they were busy during this time, and the business was relatively cold.

The finished products he made were all placed in the yard, wooden barrels, wooden basins, tables, chairs and benches, and some farm tools, Qin Shu first looked at his craftsmanship, and it was really very meticulous and strong, although there were no tricks, it was better than durability.

Qin Shu explained his intentions, asked him to help him build a board bed, as well as two door panels, and a steamed rice retort, and by the way, told him that if he did a good job, he would hand over a big deal to him in the future.

Carpenter Sun and his family were very happy when they heard this, and promised that they would do it well, you know, the wooden tools take a long time, no one will buy them in three days, their business has always been relatively light, and the most they do is to tinker with people, and now there is finally a big deal to come to the door, how can they not care?

If it is really a big deal as she said, they will take this job, even if they have no business for a year, they don't have to worry.

Qin Shu explained the size of the board bed and the door, paid a deposit, and when it was done in a few days, Carpenter Sun would personally send it to the door and install it for her. She also bought the tables, chairs, benches, wooden basins, and barrels in the courtyard, and even the flat poles, which made Carpenter Sun look at her as if she was looking at the God of Wealth.

Because Qin Shu bought a lot of things, Carpenter Sun also deliberately asked his two sons to send things home to Qin Shu in a cart.

Carpenter Sun's eldest son is in his twenties and has already married, and his children can make soy sauce, and his second son is seventeen years old and has not yet married a wife.

When they arrived at Qin Shu's house, after they moved the furniture to the location designated by Qin Shu, they carefully measured the size of the door, and then helped Qin Shu clean up the yard and house, repaired the broken windows on the stone house, and pulled out the grass in the yard. Qin Shu was very grateful in her heart, and wanted to give them a thank you gift, but they didn't accept it, waved her hand, and left.

Because of this incident, Qin Shu's good impression of Carpenter Sun's house has risen gradually, and she has already made up her mind to ask Carpenter Sun to make the doors, windows and furniture of her new house, and she will seal a big red envelope when the time comes.

Wang's actions were very fast, and they contacted the masons of Daqinzhuang next door on the same day, they happened to not take the job, and when they heard that there was a big deal in Xiaoqinzhuang, they hurried over early the next morning.
