Xu is worshipping the third uncle as a teacher, and the various appliances and facilities of the second brother Liu Wu's family are now open to the little fat man for free. Hammers, tongs, ox carts, guillotines......

Like the huge ancestral house of the little fat man's family, these things of the third uncle's family are also a symbol of wealth.

The mare's belly is getting bigger and bigger, and it looks like she is about to give birth. After reading it, the third uncle said that he would take care of it in the future, so the little fat man became even busier.

No, with the help of Liu Wu, the forage was cut finely and mixed with beans as feed for the mare. Ma Yitong is human, he has been taken care of by the little fat man for a long time, and he has become more and more intimate with him.

When others stepped forward, they inevitably kicked and bitten, but the little fat man stepped forward, but he affectionately put his head into his arms. Liu Wu's eyes were hot.

The horse of the third uncle's family is said to be a real Wuhuan war horse. But it has been gelding, and it cannot be bred. On weekdays, he is mostly ridden by the third uncle, and Liu Wu basically has no hope.

It is said that when Liu Bei raised his army, he gathered three hundred heroes in the township. I don't know if Liu Wu is also among the three hundred heroes.

"Third brother, what do you want?" Seeing that the guillotine had not fallen for a long time, Liu Wu couldn't help but ask.

"Oh, nothing." The little fat man smiled and pressed the guillotine hard.

The brothers worked together to finish the grass and put it on an ox cart and transport it back to their home. Unfortunately, the middle door is rotten and cannot be opened, otherwise the ox cart would have been able to enter the hospital.

Previously, the little fat man wanted to repair the old house, but his mother did not agree. It's buying a horse again, and it's repairing a house, it's too eye-catching, and I'm afraid it will attract people's attention. But seeing the two and a half sons struggling to carry a basket of hay into the stable, out of distress for their son, their thoughts were a little loose.

In addition, Liu Wu also contributed a lot, so the woman had a plan.

The mare ate it fragrantly, but the brothers sat down by the haystack tiredly, holding the dog's tail and looking at the white clouds in the sky boringly.

"Dun'er, Xiao Wu, come and drink saliva."

"Aunt Xie." Liu Wu hurriedly got up and took it.

The little fat man took the water with a smile and raised his head to drink.

"Third brother, my father said that before the mare gives birth, he should pull out for a walk. Nesting in the trough all day long, but it's a big bad. Liu Wu suddenly patted his head and said.

"Makes sense." Seeing that the mare had almost eaten, the little fat man went to bring it.

The green stream next to the village is a great place to go. The wind is cool and the water is stooly, and the air is fresh. The mare paced along the stream, eating the tender grass without a bite.

Liu Wu accompanied the little fat man and went around catching insects and feeding chickens.

It's almost dark. The two brothers then led their horses back.

It was night, hearing the mare's neighing, the little fat man who had been tired for a day slept deeply, and got up lazily. Early the next morning, there was a lot of cries in the front yard, and when his mother came in and called him, he realized that the mare had given birth.

"Raw? Why don't you wait for me? The little fat man was annoyed.

The mother couldn't help laughing and said, "The mare gives birth, why are you waiting?" ”

"Hey, I didn't see it with my own eyes, and I was disappointed." When the little fat man finished washing, he jumped out. There were already a lot of people in front of the stable, and the third uncle was carrying a clay bowl and feeding water to the foal. Listening to Liu Wu, there was also a little salt sprinkled in it.

The mare was lying on her side, munching on the grass. Except for the slight blood stains left under the buttocks, it was fine. The third uncle smiled at the little fat man who was anxious for the monkey: "It must be a thousand miles of horses!" ”

The third uncle will be a horse and be loyal, so he will not joke. The fat man rubbed his hands together.

The previous nineteen gold bought back the sick horse, and today buy one get one free, naturally it is a double earn! Just as he was proud, his mother came over and whispered to him.

The little fat man was stunned for a moment, but then smiled and nodded again and again, and gave his mother a thumbs up.

Glancing at the fat son, the woman raised her voice and said, "Uncle in person, I see that Xiao Wu is also very concerned about taking care of the mare on weekdays, why don't you give this foal to him?" ”

As soon as these words came out, Liu Wu cheered. But the third uncle stepped forward with a solemn fist: "Sister-in-law, is this true?" ”

"Naturally, take it seriously." The little fat man took over with a smile.

"Don't kneel down yet!" The third uncle pulled Liu Wu over, pressed him on the ground, and knocked his head.

A good horse is worth twenty gold. Ordinary people can't get it even if they smash the pot and sell iron!

Previously, the little fat man apprenticed and sent a few hundred dollars, and this time the third uncle gave him a good bow, several animal skins, and ten copper coins (ten guan).

The good bow is about six feet (about 138 cm) long, and the upper and lower bows are asymmetrical, long at the top and short at the bottom, suitable for riding and shooting. It is a Xiongnu system. Although it is a longbow, it can also be classified as a mounted archery bow. This bow is simple and unpainted, the wood grain is elegant, the bow handle is wrapped with a layer of cooked cowhide, and there is a rope at the tip of the bow. The left side of the bow handle is also inlaid with a round horn to prevent the arrow feathers from wearing the bow handle, and the design is quite careful.

The bowstring is on the hard side, and it is said that there are two stones. The little fat man can't pull it away now.

Listening to Liu Wu, the third uncle had found the traces of Xiong Zhen before, and was ready to hunt it to return the gift. Xiong Zhen is not in a hurry, the little fat man still has something to please.

This grabbed the third uncle before he entered the wild forest and blocked him in the house.

After glancing at the golden cake, the third uncle immediately asked, "Dun'er, what does this mean?" ”

"Back to my uncle, this money is my mother's dowry. The old house is in disrepair and has been destroyed. In the past, he was entangled in all kinds of things, and he didn't have time to repair it, but now his father has passed away, and only children and widows are left in the family, so he wants to beg his uncle to do it for him. ”

"I see." After a little groaning, the third uncle stroked his steel hair and smiled: "What is the matter with my Tao." A little thing, why don't you ask for it, find someone for your uncle! ”

"Thank you so much, uncle." The little fat man left with peace of mind.

Although the gold cake is expensive, it is far less than that of a good horse.

Don't say that the third uncle is loyal, and he will never be greedy for ink, but he has this intention, one gold, one horse, how to choose, fools know it. The foal feeds every day and is far from being an adult. The foal has not yet arrived, and if he tries to covet this piece of gold cake, he must have been kicked in the head by a donkey.

Within a few days, craftsmen arrived one after another. Logging and taking rocks, busy with it.

The overseer has his own third uncle. A steel-haired man, with colorful tiger skin, a loud voice that can't stop screaming, and he can deter Xiaoxiao.

Anyone with a discerning eye can see that the third uncle is repaying the favor. got a good horse and repaired the old house for the little fat family, which is right!

So, there is no need to ask where this golden cake came from. Everyone thought that it was the third uncle's money!

Even the old patriarch nodded again and again, what else did the others have to say.

Mother's plan is really clever.

In this era, the cost of materials is extremely low, basically equal to nothing. Most of the expenses are wages. Going up the mountain to cut down wood and take rocks is extremely time-consuming. It's also a big part of the overhead.

As for wood and stone, I haven't heard of any money.

Near the renovated middle gate, there is a house for the guests to live in, which is called the door house (the corridor house connected to the gate house). The kitchen in front of the right has a stove, a stove, and a well railing, and the courtyard is a hall, and the back of the hall is an inner courtyard, which is the master's residence, and there is a back hall. The front hall is Yanbin, and the back hall is a place for feasting, drinking, singing and dancing.

In addition, ancillary buildings such as garages, stables, kitchens, barns and slave quarters were reconstructed. At the base of the back wall, a new lookout tower is quite high.

Before winter, the gate was painted three times. I nail the door nail upward.

These door nails are all forged by the third uncle.
