Chapter 17: A New Home
Except for the last time when the house was not built, Xia Yuanding and his sister took a look together, Xia Yuanding has been quietly reading at his grandfather's house, and now his entry has exceeded Xia Jizu's expectations. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
It must be said that this son will be very prosperous in the future. Of course, this kind of performance only had an impact on Yuan Jie. As the saying goes, "Those who are close to Zhu are red, and those who are close to ink are black", Xia Yuanding also doubted whether this sentence was right or not, if it was right, why did Xia Yuande and several other cousins still go their own way, and they were not affected by him at all.
Another gratifying thing is that at Xia Yuanding's request, my sister Xia Yingxue can also follow them with dignity and literacy. But the grandfather who slammed the door did not provide pen and ink, Xia Yuanding could imagine what kind of miserable situation his sister would be if she really wrote.
But I'm going home, I don't know if my sister can go with me to read and write, for this matter, Xia Yuanding is still trying to get the consent of his parents!
Although the high courtyard wall is made of mud, Xia Yuanding feels that compared to the previous fence, this is already tall.
Standing in front of the courtyard gate, the sister and brother looked again and again, and only after confirming that this was indeed their own home did they dare to push the courtyard door.
"Shouzhi, Yingxue and Yuan Ding are back!"
"Mother, I'm back!" Xia Yingxue immediately left her younger brother and ran into her mother's arms, crying and crying.
What is there to cry about, isn't it just to leave for a few days, why haven't you seen it for a day, Xia Yuanding continued to observe his new home.
The stone house does look neat, angular, the roof has been replaced with green tiles, there is no need to worry about rain leakage, the doors and windows are new, and the main entrance has three steps.
It's just that it would be nice if the window was glass, thinking of glass, Xia Yuanding seemed to suddenly think of something, yes is glass, this is something that can make money, but he just knows to stay away but doesn't understand the process. Not to mention soap or something, what I learned has long been returned to the chemistry teacher.
For Xia Yuanding, the saddest thing in life is this, when there is an opportunity in front of you, you say, I forgot its principle!
In the courtyard, the original kitchen in the northeast is gone, and two new houses have been built, one of which is used as a kitchen, and the tall chimney has been erected, and the other is the room of my sister Xia Yingxue.
To the south of the kitchen is a chicken coop, and to the west of the yard is a small garden, which is their own vegetable patch. The thatched house is on the east side of the main house, there are houses and courtyard walls to block it, the stone mill is still in its original position, and now it is facing the door of my sister's residence, and the bluestone slab paves a few neat paths, which is now the small courtyard of the farmhouse.
When I entered the house, it was still the previous furniture, and it was not replaced with a new one, it didn't matter, where I landed, the ground paved with blue bricks made of bricks was eye-catching. It's a pity that the green bricks are bought with money, and the stone mountains are all there, otherwise it would be better to build a blue brick house.
When I saw the wooden bed, I was still a little excited, and it was estimated that it was one meter wide and more than one meter long, at least now I could sleep with him. Seeing that the futon had been laid, Xia Yuanding's heart felt warm.
After looking at his bed, Xia Yuanding wanted to go out to have a look, and as soon as he left the main door, he saw his sister jumping out of his room.
Xia Yuanding stepped forward to see if the bed in his sister's room was bigger than his.
"What are you doing?" Xia Yingxue stretched out her two small arms and blocked her younger brother's way.
"What do you mean by that?" Xia Yuanding asked rhetorically.
"You want to come into my room?" Xia Yingxue asked.
Xia Yuanding didn't answer, just nodded subconsciously.
"My room, you can't just enter it without my permission in the future!" Xia Yingxue said immediately.
Staring into his sister's eyes and seeing her fearless eyes, Xia Yuanding turned around and left, not wanting to say a word of nonsense.
If you don't look at it, you won't look at it, who is rare, do you still beg you, the master is not that kind of person, Xia Yuanding is a principled person.
Seeing her brother leaving, Xia Yingxue followed her into the main house, came to her brother's room, and said something that broke Xia Yuanding's heart, "Your bed is so small, you sleep alone, but be careful not to fall out of bed!" ā
Irony, this is absolutely naked irony.
No, you have to fight back, but what can Xia Yuanding do to fight back!
It's too poisonous, but after someone else catches wetting the bed, no matter how he struggles, there is always a tight spell on his head.
Xia Yuanding walked away with his hands behind his back, whatever you say, I am good at Qi cultivation, ignore you, what else can you do, what can I do?
But......
"Mother, you don't know, I can dig up a baby today, it's an earring!"
It's not that it's good to keep it secret, no one can tell it, let's divide the money from the sale equally, why is there no sugar-coated cannon, and my sister has defected.
Xia Yuanding kept making his eyes, those eyebrows, and those eyes could be made into emojis, but in vain, he still had to come.
Xia Yuanding hoped that there would be a back button, so that he could back the earrings that his sister took out into her pocket!
"Mother, look pretty!" casually gave this thing to Xia Li's family.
"It looks like it should be quite valuable, so let's put my mother here first, and keep it for you as a dowry when you grow up!" Xia Li said.
"Well, my mother is the best for me!"
How can this be, it was obviously discovered by the two of us, and this became her dowry alone. Do you know that this is the start-up capital I intend to use to make a fortune, how can I confiscate it!
"Mother, this is what I found out with my sister, and I also have my credit!" Xia Yuanding hurriedly emphasized.
"Yuan Ding is also doing very well!"
Xia Yuanding was stunned, what kind of evaluation is this, does it mean that he did a good job, or that he did a good job!
This is to praise you and ignore you, what about things, don't you say that you will divide me in half?
"Mother, I really have my credit!" Xia Yuanding stubbornly said it again.
Xia Li still didn't understand the meaning of these words, thinking that his son blindly wanted people to praise him.
"Got it, thanks to you, my mother will reward you with an egg to eat, go play!"
The wind is sluggish and the water is cold, the valuable earrings are no longer returned, and he can still say that his heart is crying in the past, but now it is really bleeding, this time it is too much of a loss!
"What's wrong with Yuan Ding, why are you still unhappy when you live in a new house?" While eating dinner, Xia Shouzhi asked.
"Dad, a few cousins picked up a jade pendant, and grandpa said it was worth at least a few dozen taels of silver!" Xia Yuanding looked at him left and right.
"There are such good things, now it's okay, after changing the money, your second and third uncle's houses can be built, I'll ask after dinner, see if I can help!" Xia Shouzhi was overjoyed, and then said: "Then why are you unhappy, although we didn't pick it up, but after all, it's your own family, you should still be happy!" ā
"My sister and I also picked one up, how much should it be worth!" Xia Yuanding turned his sadness into joy, and said again.
"And this?" The scene that happened just now Xia Shouzhi was not there, so it was not clear, why didn't he say this kind of thing earlier, and then looked at his wife.
"I also said that I would keep it as a dowry for Yingxue in the future!" Xia Li sighed.
Xia Shouzhi was reluctant to talk about these things at the dinner table, so he ordered a few people to eat well, he has always been only responsible for making money, and it is his daughter-in-law's business to manage money, and he will not care about his son's thoughts, at least he has had more things recently.
Lying on a new bed for the first time, Xia Yuanding thought a lot, such as ideals, such as beliefs, such as what he wanted to do!
The reality is that it's hard to make some money here, and it's hard for a six-year-old child to take on such a heavy responsibility.
