The arrival of five people first made the life of the pillar much more comfortable. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

Lao Wu cleaned up the inside and outside of the temple clean and tidy, and even didn't use pillars to cook food, and when he came back, he had hot water to wipe his face.

The rest followed the pillar to the streets every day in search of work.

But Zhou Delu was a good man again, he took pity on these children, and the coolies in the grain store no longer invited others, so they let the five of them take care of it.

Although the number of people who ate was greater, there was no famine, but more than enough.

Pang Youji's pockets are bulging, so he no longer wants to drive people away, but often complains that the place where he lives is too tight.

The pillar didn't want the eldest brother to be unhappy, he already had an idea.

The bamboo forest not far from the small temple has been thinking about it for a long time. He's going to build his house there.

He tried.

He often took his brothers on hunting trips. The third child is good at trading and can exchange prey for money. The fourth child was originally a nitrater, but he taught again, and he added another business. Lao Wu's hands are so skillful, those animal skins that are not easy to sell, she sews and repairs them into hats, shoes, and even clothes, which can be sold for money, and can be sold for a good price. The sixth and seventh are younger, but they are never lazy. The pillar is happy with such a life.

It's the Chinese New Year, and every house in the city is setting off firecrackers, and sometimes fireworks.

Pang Youji was very happy, and he actually took out some extra money to buy vegetables and wine, and also bought some small cannons.

Seven people sit in front of the small temple, the bamboo table is full of food, the bonfire is roasted with game, the smoke is burning, the bamboo cups are coming, and the laughter is full. And with a smoky cough and fiery tears.

It was the first time for Zhuzi to drink liquor like this, and he felt that the spicy and spicy ones were not very delicious, and he was a little dizzy after not drinking much. But he saw that the eldest brother was very interested, so he tried to accompany him.

Drinking and drinking, the third child suddenly cried, and he choked up and said, "Since I fled, I haven't lived a day like this." During this time, he felt at home again with his second brother, which made him feel warm and hopeful in life."

He stood up with his cup in his hand and said to the pillar: "You will not be the second brother in the future, you are our eldest brother." ”

The other four also stood up and shouted, "Yes! It's our big brother. ”

Zhuzi scolded with a smile, "It's stupid to drink", he pointed at Pang Youji and said, "Big brother is here." ”

Pang Youji sneered: "It's none of my business, it's none of my business." ”

There were a few more pillars, so he said, "Why don't we bow together." After speaking, he took the lead to bow to Pang Youji.

The third child wanted to speak, but was pulled by the sleeve of the fifth sister, so he stopped talking.

So everyone worshiped the eldest brother together.

Pang Youji was happy again, so he picked up the soil for incense and drank blood for the alliance. The pillar proposed to judge the size by age, but everyone didn't do it, and the pillar was recommended as the second brother.

After drinking the pillar, he talked a little too much, and when he saw the fifth brother, he remembered Qiuhe again, so he said to the fifth brother: "Second brother, give you a name!" ”

Lao Wu clapped his hands happily: "Okay, good!" ”

"Let's call it Qiuhe."

On the first day of the Lunar New Year, Zhu Zi took his brothers to pay New Year's greetings to Boss Zhou, got some New Year's money, and got some bacon, and everyone was very happy. At dinner, the pillar expressed his idea of preparing to build a house.

Pang Youji was about to speak out against it, but he suddenly fell silent, because he had a better idea.

On the second day of the Lunar New Year, the pillar began to build a house with his brothers. The open space next to the bamboo forest is very large, which can build many houses, and the ground is flat, the soil quality is good, and the bearing capacity is also strong. When I was a child, Zhuzi watched my father build a house, and it didn't seem to be too difficult, mainly because it was more troublesome to ram the ground and lay the foundation. But now that there are many people, none of this is a problem.

Rammer, he has already chosen. There is a small village not far from the small temple, there is a large abandoned grinding plate, which is estimated to weigh two or three hundred pounds, which is just used to ram the ground. There is also a large bluestone wheel that can be used to crush the ground.

He took his brothers to use bamboo as poles, and in a day's work, they tamped the ground tightly.

Tamping the ground is hard work, and it pays attention to cooperation. The fourth's father used to be a slender man, so the fourth child can sing the Sichuan River trumpet. And he sang, "O brothers! Sink down! Tighten your legs! Lift it up! Raise your head! Ram it down!

The pillar was pulled over the fiber, and when I heard others sing, I responded loudly: "Hey, roar." The others followed suit, "Hey." ”

During the song, the bamboo pole on the shoulder seemed to be much lighter. Sweat sprinkled on the loess, and singing drifted in the bamboo forest.

Qiu He stood next to him with a smile, staring at the fourth child. When everyone paused, she hurriedly handed over the cool towel.

On the second day of the Lunar New Year, they began to dig trenches and fill in rocks. There were a lot of stones of different sizes next to the pier, and they carried them in baskets. The third and fourth gangsters changed the lyrics of the Chuanjiang trumpet:

(collar) cough cough cough, cough cough

(collar) cough cough cough, cough cough

Our brothers (together) ahem

There are many babies (together) cough cough

Often suffering from white-eyed cough

People are bullying, cough cough

Follow the second brother (together) cough cough

Build a big house (together) cough cough

We doll (together) ahem

Be self-reliant

Qingshan Qingyun Baiyun Bai Yo (He) cough cough

The back waves of the Yangtze River push the front waves, oh (he) cough cough

Under the scorching sun, sweat a lot, cough cough

A good life depends on the second brother......

On the edge of the Yangtze River, the sun is scorching, sweating like rain, but the singing brings a little coolness. Qiu He held a jar of water and a broken bowl, followed them, and fed the pillar and the fourth child water from time to time.

The third brother was not happy: "Hey, Qiuhe, why don't you feed the second brother and the fourth brother water." Second brother, forget it, I don't dare to compare. Not necessarily your fourth brother is an elder brother, but your third brother is not. ”

Qiu Hong blushed, but quickly poured water and handed it to the third child: "Be careful of choking you!" ”

Everyone laughed, and the pillar was muffled.

He discovered the benefits of having a large number of people, and he remembered a sentence in "Zengguang Xianwen": "Parents who are all in the world, and brothers who are the rarest people in the world." ”

In the evening, the four deep trenches used to make foundations and bury the corners of the walls were dug. They separated the four straight logs they bought at the four corners and filled the ditch with bluestone.

On the third day of the Lunar New Year, start mixing mud. First take the high-quality yellow mud and break it. Chop the straw and hair and mix it well, then pour it into the glutinous rice soup, and then take the five brothers and sisters to sing while stepping on the mud, and when they feel that the mud is sticky, they start to fill the mud and ram it while pouring. Everyone started a mud fight again, Qiu He fell into the mud in a panic and became a "mud lotus", and everyone bent over with laughter.

On the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, their house was already taking shape. Everyone worked hard, but they had a lot of fun.

Only Pang Youji did not participate in the joy of this labor, but he also did not go out, only stayed by the side to watch, and looked around from time to time, as if waiting for someone to arrive.
