The monkey took them back from the old house, and after sitting down, a few people began to calculate the cement, wood, and green tiles to be used, which are all available in the town, and Li Gang can bring them back from the town at that time.

Speaking of making calls, Li Yu thought that he still had to get a local card, and he still used the card of S City, it seemed that he had to ask Li Gang to buy a phone card for himself to come back, and he also had to buy a car, a motorcycle, otherwise it would be inconvenient to go anywhere.

Talking about fishing in the afternoon, the monkey's eyes lit up, but then Li Yu poured a basin of cold water, "You don't want to help repair the house?" ”

The monkey looked at Li Yu with a resentful expression and said, "Boss, you did it on purpose!" ”

Zheng Yicheng is the craftsman surnamed Zheng, and said with a smile, "We have already looked at the house, and we can start construction when the materials arrive, and you can't help much, just be a supervisor." ”

The monkey didn't know the meaning of Zheng Yicheng's words, "You can't help us, if you don't trust us, you should do what you want." Busy said, "Master Zheng said with a smile!" ”

After speaking, he winked at Li Yu.

A room full of people made innocuous jokes and told some strange things in and out of the village, and time flew by.

At this time, I heard my grandmother say that it was time to eat, there were many people today, and the table in the hall was for eight people, and Li Yu and the monkey moved out of a large round table, which was more than enough for fifteen people.

The beer that had been chilled in the freezer for a long time was mentioned, and twelve bottles were mentioned like this, and it was impossible to put it in the refrigerator.

Put down the beer, the two went to serve the food again, there was no way to call the guests present who were either invited or elders, so they had to pack the food and pour the wine, and Li Yu and the monkey couldn't complain.

A large pot of preserved pig's trotters stewed vermicelli is served, the light fragrance makes a table of people move their index fingers, saliva is secreted quickly in the mouth, and only listen to the sound of saliva for a while, this is the home-smoked pig's trotters (the village likes to call the pig's trotters and pig's legs collectively referred to as pig's trotters), every family in Xiaohe Village smokes bacon, roughly the same, but the taste and color of the smoked are different, grandma has a unique craft, the smoked meat does not have the strong salty taste of other bacon, some people's smoked bacon is simply not able to enter, salty and bitter, and it has to be washed with water before cooking. The pot is three or four centimeters long pig's trotters, pig's trotters hang in the smokehouse for half a year, the color is still pink and tender after making it, and it looks very attractive.

Vermicelli is a specialty of Qinghe Town, every year you have to book in advance, it's gone when it's late, this vermicelli only uses sweet potatoes, unlike the potatoes that are sold outside, and it is soft into a ball when cooked, and it tastes weird, the vermicelli in Qinghe Town will only be produced in large quantities in the sweet potato harvest season, and it will stop working if it is gone, and this vermicelli is sold for fifty yuan a catty, or in short supply.

Then a pot of cold cucumbers, the cucumbers are picked from their own vegetable garden, and the fragrance wafts everywhere.

Stir-fried pork with garlic sprouts, green garlic sprouts with large pieces of lean pork slices are tempting to look at.

This is followed by a large slice of braised fish, grilled fish, with a thick sauce, sprinkled with ginger and shallots, and a large bowl of fried golden tofu, which tastes soft and tender.

The last pot of sauerkraut fish was served, and even the calm Master Zheng couldn't help it, "Auntie, don't do it again, come and eat!" "In fact, the host's family is still in the kitchen, how can the guests move the chopsticks first, although grandma has already beckoned them to eat first, don't worry about them.

Grandma smiled and said, "There aren't many dishes, everyone eats quickly, people can't cook when they're old, but fortunately there are Yanzi." ”

"What's the matter, I'm just giving grandma a hand." Wang Yan kept a smile on her face, and her speech was very unclear and atmospheric.

"Grandma and sister-in-law, your cooking skills are better than the master chefs of the restaurants I have seen in the city!" Monkey's heartfelt praise.

Others agreed.

Drinking cold beer, eating fragrant meals, coupled with the host's enthusiasm and generosity, a meal was enjoyed by the guests and hosts, the dishes were so delicious that people forgot to drink, and finally the meals were eaten up, the cold cucumber was the last to be eaten, accompanied by beer, chewing crisp raw cucumbers, not to say, grandpa also completed the bet with grandma, and ate three bowls of rice, which made grandma laugh.

Li Yu gnawed the most pig's trotters, and there was a pile of bones in front of him, this pig's trotters grandma would bring a few to her parents every year, but only by eating at home could she eat the original taste, plus there were many people eating lively, you fought for me, and before I knew it, I ate several more bowls than usual.

After eating, grandma said to kill watermelons again, and a group of people hugged their stomachs and hummed, "If you eat again, your stomach will really explode!" ”

After cleaning up the table is already two o'clock, the sun shines directly into the house, I have to close the door half of the door, this is the bad place to sit east and west, the sun shines straight into the house in the summer afternoon, if you don't close the door, you have to sit on both sides, close the door, set up two big electric fans in the corners of both sides, you can blow in all directions, and the house is as cool as turning on the air conditioner.

Li Yu decided to carry a few big trees in front of the door in the future to block the fierce sun, but even the beautiful sunset will block it, and after thinking about it, it is better to build a house facing north and south in the future! The wing room is located in the north and faces south, where in summer except for the row of houses in the back is the coolest, the back house is blocked by bamboo forests and mulberry trees, and the sun is blocked by the front house, it is as cool as the air-conditioned room.

Now it is impossible to work, it is not good to sleep when you are full, everyone drinks a cup of green tea to consume food, and some people propose to fight the landlord while drinking tea, these people will play cards, except for grandparents do not play, there are nine people left, and there are three tables together, three people per table.

Landlords have various ways to play, and when they play, they will generally say the rules and unify them.

Are some veterans of playing cards, although Li Yu has played a lot but there are still a lot of gaps compared to them, but not afraid, he drank soul fluid, his memory has been improved by perversion, playing cards many times is a test of memory and brain power, memory often accounts for the main part.

In order to test it, Li Yu deliberately and Master Zheng and Uncle Zhang, these two people play cards are played out of flowers, usually which is not a frequent visitor at the gambling table, the three of them set a plate of five yuan, fried not capped, and is the first two, in ten, the last five cards, so that there will be a lot more bombs, that is, win more, lose more.

After a few sets, Li Yu in addition to the other party's hand of the cards are too good to go against the sky, basically won, not much, after all, Uncle Zhang and Master Zheng are also good at remembering cards of the old birds, well versed in this way for decades, but Li Yu's performance still surprised them secretly, this kid seems to know what cards they have in their hands, every time the cards are stuck in the important position.

Compared to the master of this table, the move is silent, the other two tables are playing for a while, and they feel bored to come and see the three of them playing, if there are many bombs in a game, the landlord loses two or three hundred, and the three of them can not play with twelve points of spirit, and the play is a heartbeat!

After playing for two hours, Master Zheng said that it was time to start work, and then continue to play in the evening, counting Li Yu and Master Zheng won, Uncle Zhang lost five or six hundred yuan, he has the best skills, and he bought more landlords, of course, he also has a lot of money, but he didn't expect to meet Li Yu, the terminator, and shouted that he bet that Li Yu must have played a lot at ordinary times, otherwise he would not have lost so badly, this is the first time for him.

Even the monkey admired and said, "Boss, take me as an apprentice!" ”

I have to wait for a while to catch fish, Uncle Zhang's water tank truck is still on the way, Li Yu and Uncle Zhang took a pump to pump water out at noon, and changed the channel of water inlet to the side of the waterway, and I didn't expect to drain it so quickly, but it is also a lot more convenient to pump half of the fish.

The monkey took five craftsmen to the old house, and when Li Gang's car arrived, he dropped off the materials directly at the door of his house, and they waited to move and unload the goods, and the monkey said that he would come over when he finished unloading.
