Chapter Seventy-Five: Home and All Things Flourish

Fang Mingyuan chatted with his son, "You say, there are cows here, why are there no potatoes and sweet potatoes?" Roasting sweet potatoes on the stove in winter is delicious! ”

Chang'an thought about it, shook his head and said, "I don't know, this place may be before the Ming Dynasty over there." ”

Fang Mingyuan said: "It's not the same as the history we know, there is gunpowder here." Today, the pastry house is on the beam, and the patriarch specially bought firecrackers. Although there are a lot of dumb fires that haven't exploded, then there is such a thing! ”

The two chatted and walked to the village, where the entire camp was now village territory. There is a red deed issued by the government in his hand, which is equivalent to a land certificate and a real estate certificate.

"Mingyuan's nephew, the first two rows of houses can be built in two days, do you think we can divide the houses? What's the point?

There is also a bridge over the river, first build a wooden bridge, slowly pour stones down from the mountain, and then build a stone bridge in the spring, no? "The patriarch is in a good mood, the crops in the field have been planted, and the conference room is already tiled, that is, it will be completed in three or two days.

The ancestral hall began to lay the foundation, and the idle people in the whole village went to help, and the ancestral tablet could be invited into the new ancestral hall in three or five days!

How many days does it take for the new house to be in the sun? I don't have that time! The men all live in the shacks, and when the breeze blows at night, the men are huddled together, indecent!

Two rows of houses are ten, counting Zhao's mother's family in the village, there are nineteen households, and Fang Mingyuan lives outside, but his mother can't really be separated when he is still there, so the household registration is still the same as Mrs. Niu.

When he first moved his household, Fang Mingyuan registered both the stuffy man and the Qian Chuanzi, and the two of them were counted as two households, that is, there were twenty-one households in the village with household registration.

Money skewers and stuffy people can be separated, even so, the houses built now are only enough for half of the people to live in, and it becomes a question who moves first.

"The patriarch is going to call people, let's go to the big shack to draw lots." Fang Mingyuan thought of a way not to offend people.

People from all families soon came, the patriarch's family must settle in the new house, the first row and the first household are the patriarch's house, and everyone unanimously decided that the second household in the first row should be given to Fang Mingyuan's family. There were still eight suites left, and Mrs. Niu was pushed forward by the old ladies first.

"Hey!" Mrs. Niu rubbed her hands, looked at her eldest son Fang Minggui and said with a smile: "The old lady is running now, and she is designated to be able to catch the room, God bless me must not let me catch the room at both ends." ”

A trembling hand stretched out, Mrs. Niu suddenly retracted her hand, turned around and looked around, strode in front of Fang Yue, and picked up her little granddaughter, "Little girl!" You're God's lucky doll, help your milk catch one. ”

Mrs. Niu regretted blowing out her big words, in case she couldn't catch the house, didn't it mean that I didn't transfer it? That's not right, I'm in good fortune right now! Don't fail to catch the house, blocking the heart will affect the money.

Fang Yue grinned and reached out to grab a paper ball from the urn.

When I opened the paper ball, only two words were written on it, "Nakato!" ”

"Haha...... It's not a side household! The chick is really lucky. Mrs. Niu was satisfied, "Then I will live in the west of the fourth family." ”

Fang Mingyuan wrote a note for drawing lots, and wrote it very briefly on the middle household, and the side household was finished. As for which house to live in, let's discuss!

Then the families took turns to come up to draw lots, and the third uncle stepped forward with a smile, stretched out his hand and retracted it, looked back around, and shouted: "Old woman, why don't you catch it?" ”

Mrs. Liu smiled and waved her hand, "Old man, don't make trouble, you have to come to the big things at home." ”

The third uncle took a deep breath, reached into the urn, grabbed a paper ball, clenched his fists tightly, and let everyone urge, but he didn't have the courage to open it.

Then there was the fourth uncle's house, Mingwen, Mingwu stepped forward with his father, hehe smiled, and watched his father reach out and grab the lot. The same three of them tacitly grabbed the paper ball and retreated, just not to show it to you.

Fang Linghe, the cousin of the clan, was surrounded by his children and grandchildren in front of the big urn, stretched out his trembling hand and grabbed a paper ball, and the little grandson shouted with dough, Grandpa, let's see if there are any words?

Fang Linghe smiled and led his family to retreat, don't look at it first, wait a while, let me slow down first.

Then there is Fang Mingzhang, the big brother of the Ming generation. Fang Mingxian is the second oldest in the clan. The two grabbed the paper ball, looked at each other very tacitly, and stepped back and waited to draw the lottery with everyone.

Mrs. Jin squeezed away Fang Mingyuan's aunt Mrs. Liu and caught one first.

When Mrs. Liu went up to catch her, Mrs. Jin and Mrs. Song muttered in a low voice, "Look at her, her hands are still stirring inside!" Luck can't be stirred, it's like stirring gnocchi soup, the gnocchi goes down into the boiling water, and it has already taken shape, and if you stir it again, it will leak the soup! ”

Mrs. Li thought so, and when she went up to catch lots, she resolutely did not toss it, and when she took one out, she stepped back, clasped her hands together and said: "God bless, there must be words!" ”

Mrs. Song took out one very decisively, then retreated, and whispered to Mrs. Jin: "I'm a little guilty, she just got rid of her luck, can I still have words on it?" ”

Grandma Wang's great-grandson Changlu stepped forward with her and grabbed the paper ball, and Grandma Wang stuffed it directly to Changlu, the milk was dazzled, you can take a look.

There are words without words, and you can see it without being dazzled! Milk, I'm embarrassed by you like this!

Fang Mingcai unfolded the paper ball, laughed and shouted: "There are words, there are words on it!" ”

Mrs. Liu, Fang Mingyuan's aunt, unfolded the paper ball, and almost didn't cry, no words, a blank paper ball.

Mrs. Niu only looked at her sister-in-law's expression and knew that she must not have caught the room, so she knew that her sister-in-law was very unlucky.

Grandma Zhang laughed the happiest, don't look at her old teeth, her luck is still very strong, and she came back with a word when she went up.

Caught the house, Qi Pozi Fang Ming changed homes, and the fat daughter-in-law Liu Yanyan went up to catch the lot, Qi Pozi said that the daughter-in-law has always been lucky.

The second sister-in-law's mother-in-law, the Zhao family, Shi Pozi shouted, we can wait for the next wave, don't be in a hurry to live in a new house, and the hand is very honest to reach into the big urn, grab a word and come out, and be humble! We are really not in a hurry, who is in a hurry to live, take it, take it to live!

The rest of the people who caught the house are, the fourth uncle Fang Lingli's family, Song Pozi's family, Jin Pozi's family, and the old birthday star Grandma Zhang also caught a set, which is a side household.

Everyone gathered together to discuss the new house, next door to Mrs. Niu was Mrs. Qi's house, and the westernmost household was Fang Mingcai's house.

"Move to a new bed, let's close the account in the next two days and share the money with everyone." Fang Mingyuan shouted at everyone with a smile.

"Huh! Mingyuan's nephew, don't worry, it depends on the days of living in a new house, Ming'er asked your aunt to go to the city to find a fortune teller to ask. ”

The patriarch has made a mistake, the child has to ask for a fortune teller when he chooses a name, and he has to ask for a move, so you can't turn the yellow calendar to see the day?

Mrs. Niu squeezed away the patriarch, "The cotton in Yingxian County is cheap, I will bring back a cart today, and the daughters-in-law are idle, let me hurry up and make bedding." ”

The patriarch hurriedly asked how much money had been spent, and asked him to keep an account, and when he turned back to collect the account, how much cotton and cloth each family had received, and to deduct the money.

Mrs. Niu cut a snort, and said in her heart, I advance money, and I can still keep accounts, so I have already let the money strings be written in the account book.

Aunt Zhao pulled Mrs. Niu and asked: "I'm thinking, I can't divide the money now, why don't we wait for a few counties to start selling cakes, and make back the money, so that each family can get a few, and the money in the account at this time, I can't figure out how much I can't share!" ”

Mrs. Niu never cared about the public accounts in the village, so she said casually: "The house is built, and it takes two days to burn the kang and burn the fire wall, and it will take two or three days for the house to be warm and dry. ”

"Shangyang, what should I do in Xiayang County? No one is following, can your sister-in-law succeed? Aunt Zhao whispered.

Mrs. Niu whispered: "Isn't there a full cang mother following her?" Don't worry, the Guo family has opened a blacksmith shop for several lifetimes, and Mrs. Chen is very good at nagging, think about repairing farm tools in our village, when did you collect less money? It's like we're taking advantage of others, why? ”

"Why?" Aunt Zhao covered her mouth and smiled, and whispered: "People sharpen scissors and sharpen knives for us, don't need money!" Later, I learned that the apprentices in the blacksmith shop started to learn from sharpening knives, and we took scissors and kitchen knives, and they trained the apprentices. ”

Mrs. Niu thought about what happened in Yingxian County today, "I pondered, Xiayang County let the money shopkeeper follow, he is the scene person." Besides, the fat shopkeeper introduced us to it, and as soon as it was a pastry over there, people opened their mouths and said how much, and they all inquired and understood. ”

Aunt Zhao clasped her hands together and said: "It's won, you go and talk about it, let's go out tomorrow, hurry up and make money, and I'm waiting to buy the guys when I move!" ”

Mrs. Niu smiled and called the old ladies to come over for a meeting, and dragged Dong Xiaoying, who had just lay down and was sleepy, out.

What for? It's too far to go to Tieguan City, and the mule carts have to be sent to those who have traveled from afar, and the ox carts in the village are still not enough, what should I do?

The county town is far away, and it takes three hours to drive the ox cart at three o'clock in the morning, and the cake has been dangling on the car, don't shake it up!

Dong Xiaoying asked: What to do? Let's save money to buy shops in various counties?
