Chapter 15 Demolition and Renovation of Houses

Within two days of coming back, Xia Shouzhi made the decision to demolish the old house and build a new one. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

This matter has been dragging on for a long time, and the couple always wants to save a few more dollars before building the house.

Now that it has been decided, things can't be delayed for a long time, so I immediately started to move things.

To be honest, except for Xia Li's loom, there is really nothing valuable.

The brothers in the neighborhood came to help, and after a day's work, what was supposed to be a few houses was razed to the ground.

Xia Shouzhi was looking for someone to start laying the foundation, and he was transporting materials everywhere, anyway, he was busy with his feet on the ground.

Xia Yuanding temporarily moved to his grandfather's house, and he was generally satisfied, but when he was in class, Xia Yingxue was always listening.

In this way, he lost the opportunity to teach her to read, and the career he had worked so hard to run was ruined.

But there is also a benefit, the three cousins who don't study seriously finally correct their attitudes seriously, and they also feel that the scene of being reprimanded by their grandfather is not good for their cousins to see.

Of course, there are happy times, after grandpa taught him, Xia Yuanding can remember the fastest time, the first time he saw his younger brother so powerful, Xia Yingxue still opened her mouth to express some surprise.

Taking advantage of this time at his grandfather's house, he can have the opportunity to read a few more books. Although Xia Jizu's collection of books is not very large, and most of them are books related to scientific research, clues can always be found from them.

In the era of no navigation and positioning, Xia Yuanding relied on his own efforts to find his position, Dushan Village, Sanhe County, Huaiyang Prefecture, Zhongzhou.

Don't ask him where Sanhe County is? Don't ask him where is Huaiyang Mansion? Don't even ask him what Zhongzhou is?

Xia Yuanding, with his rich knowledge of astronomy, could determine that the place where his feet were stepping was called the earth.

But history played a joke on him, although the height was similar, it was unrecognizable, and it didn't give him the slightest chance to hug his thighs!

It is said that it is similar because there are emperors, imperial examinations and other systems, but it is unrecognizable means that the Han and Tang dynasties are not there, and the romantic characters only exist in his mind.

Now Xia Yuanding doesn't have the energy to pay attention to these, when will his family's house be built, this is what he cares about now.

After telling my sister, the two of them decided to go and see it together.

After lunch, they set off, and after a short time of fighting along the way, they returned to their home.

"This, take it slowly, handle it gently, be careful!"

I saw that several uncles were helping to pull the stone up, and the stone was placed in a large basket, and it did not look light. Now the walls are more than a man tall, and the positions of the doors and windows can be seen. The difference is that two small windows should be added to the back wall, which is conducive to lighting, and the position should be higher, so that it will be better in winter.

It's just that the bamboo forest behind the house has been cut down a lot. Xia Shouzhi doesn't know the craft of weaving, and the bamboo has always grown well and has never been damaged.

"Mother, we're here!"

"Why are you running here?" Xia Li asked.

"It's all my brother, he brought me here!" Xia Yingxue said.

Although what she said was the truth, Xia Yuanding always had a feeling of carrying the black pot, it all depends on me, if you don't want to come, you can agree as soon as you shout, and no one pulled you over, they all ran ahead.

"Mother, are you cooking, I'll light the fire!" Look, Xia Yuanding is here to help.

"Mother, I'll burn the fire, my brother must be burned!" Xia Yingxue also rushed to do it.

Xia Yuanding slowed down, let this job be a sister, Gu Youkong Rong let the pear, and the existing Yuan Ding let ......

"Have you all eaten?" Xia Li asked.

"Eat, mother, you don't know, grandma has made food for my brother again, and grandpa is used to him!" When Xia Yingxue thought of this, she was a little dissatisfied.

What about dissatisfaction, firstly, he is a boy, and secondly, he is smart and lovable.

"Mother, when the house is built, can I have a big wooden bed!"

"I want it too!"

"Okay! When the time comes, find someone to make two beds, one for each of you. Xia Li agreed, I had never seen her so happy.

"When the time comes, will Dad build a house next to the kitchen?"

"Of course, it's also a stone house, you're older, you can't be crowded with your brother anymore, and you can't be afraid to sleep alone in a room when the time comes, you know?"

"Got it, mother!" Xia Yingxue has been looking forward to this day for a long time.

In addition to the uncle, several other uncles came. Xia Yuanding wondered why the uncle had become an invisible man and didn't come to help. In fact, Xia Shouzhi didn't ask his eldest brother for help at all, and Xia Shouren wouldn't do these rough jobs, so it wasn't to add to the chaos when he came.

When the meal is ready, the work stops, and when you have enough to eat, you can do it again.

Xia Yingxue and Xia Yuanding stood next to their mother and politely called their uncle.

In addition to the uncle, there are three people I don't know, who should know how to build a house and are specially invited.

The meal is very ordinary, but the amount of food must be sufficient, as long as people are full. A few adults entered the table, and Xia Li was on the side. Although the dishes were shabby and the radish stew, Xia Shouzhi took out his treasured wine, and the dinner table was still very lively.

"Shouzhi, I heard that my father treats your family Yuanding differently!" Erboxia Shouyi said.

"Second brother, what you said, my father is not the same to anyone's children!" Xia Shouzhi looked honest, but his words were leaky.

"You fourth, our brothers, you are still like this, you can't let go. It stands to reason that your house could have been built a long time ago, but it was dragged until the old house could no longer be lived, and you let your younger siblings suffer for so many years in vain. Xia Shouyi said unceremoniously.

Speaking of this, Xia Shouzhi was indeed a little ashamed, but he was a cautious person, and he built a house rashly, in case there was an emergency place, where did the money come from, and he couldn't pull off that face.

"Now it's still said that these things are too much, the fourth brother's house is built, and my family is still like that, I don't know when I will have hope!" Xia Shouxin, the youngest of the brothers, said.

"Keep your word, I don't think we can build a house just by pointing to this field, we have to have a craft!" Xia Shouli said that now his family and the old five families still live in adobe houses.

"I think it's too late to learn the craft with the fourth brother now, how can the fourth brother learn this craft in the first place, this is generally not passed on!" Xia Shouxin had some regrets.

"Keep your promises, if you want to, then follow me up the mountain to learn slowly, and I will teach you everything you know!" Xia Shouzhi was very generous, and then explained: "As for this craft, when I was seven years old, I accidentally saved an old artist, and he wanted to pass on the craft to me, and my father agreed, so I followed it for a few years." ”

Not everyone can encounter such an opportunity, and the fourth child is considered lucky.

Xia Yuanding didn't expect that it was not easy to learn a craft, no wonder many villagers still relied on the fields to live.

"I just look at winemaking, and I will definitely make a lot of money!" couldn't help it, Xia Yuanding said beside him.

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone present burst into laughter.

"Yuan Ding, don't you know, this winemaking is a technical job, we don't know, isn't that a waste of food, it's not enough to eat, how can it be used to make wine!" Sanboxia Shouli explained with a smile.

Xia Yuanding stopped talking, because if the advice he gave was not feasible at this stage, the initial expenditure would not be affordable.

In the end, the uncles didn't come up with any good results, and then they had to start building a house.

A few people invited together to tell some anecdotes, the two sides did not disturb each other, Xia Yuanding listened to the parents on the side, whose fruit trees are big and sweet, whose livestock have a litter of cubs, and whose family has a girl to marry......

"Mother, let's go, we have to read in the afternoon!" After enough was enough, Xia Yuanding proposed to leave, and Xia Li naturally would not stop him.

"Mother, when will our house be built!" Xia Yingxue asked a question of concern before leaving.

"Those three main houses will be built in two or three days, and your house will have to wait, but it's going to be soon!" Xia Li said.

This news is exciting, Xia Yuanding also wants to go back to his own house to live, after all, he can't let go of his grandfather's house, and he has to deal with his grandfather's teaching at any time.
