Chapter 65: Pretending to give in
Old man Cheng sighed in his heart, Su Mu's words, as soon as she heard it, she knew that what she was going to say would not be a good thing.
But so many people watched, and Old Man Cheng couldn't pretend not to hear, so he turned around and smiled very reluctantly, "What's the matter?" ”
Mother Su pointed to the location of the original east wing, "Naturally, it is a matter of building a house, this east wing is owned by Yanping's younger couple, and Qin Niang's sister-in-law occupies it, so I asked Qin Niang, her eldest brother and ninth brother to go to the county yesterday to find a mason and talk about building a house." The matter has been discussed, and I will wait for the afternoon to measure the place and set the bricks. ”
Old man Cheng's lips trembled, and he simply forgot what Su Mu had mentioned that day. I didn't expect that the Su family would give this matter without his consent.
Su Mu didn't see Old Man Cheng's ugly face, and said to herself: "I think that since this house is going to be built, let's build it as big as possible, and I plan to let people tear down the chicken shed over there and build it in, so that there can be an extra room." After all, the child is older than a year, and he can make do with Qin Niang for now, but next year, it will be difficult to sleep with Qin Niang. Therefore, building an extra room looks a little expensive at the moment, but in the long run, it is still cost-effective. ”
When Li heard this in the house, he couldn't sit still, so he hurriedly ran out and said: "I think what Uncle Shi said makes sense, Dad, you see that Dabao is also older, and now he is seven years old, why don't you take advantage of the house to build a house for your sister-in-law and tear down the east wing and rebuild it?" In a few years, when Dabao is big, you have to say kiss, and it won't look good if you don't have a house at that time, right? ”
Old man Cheng glared at Li angrily, this stirrger!
The Li family is not afraid of him, she has figured out everything now, the Su family has made up their minds to support Su Qinniang when she comes back, looking at the current situation, Old Man Cheng is enough to fight the Su family.
She is also the daughter-in-law of the Cheng family, why can she only watch Su Qinniang eat meat, she can't even get some meat scraps?
Therefore, she also has to ask for it, and she wants it behind the Su family's ass.
If Old Man Cheng agreed to the Su family's request and didn't agree to her request, she would also move her mother's house over to make trouble.
Anyway, her mother's house is close, so it's easy to come over.
Thinking about how stupid I used to be, I always listened to those two old things draw big cakes, and whatever money I saved will be their second room from now on. Phew, she really got her brain in the water, and she actually believed this.
Silver is a thing, or put it in your pocket as soon as possible to make people feel at ease!
Su Mu understood Li's mind thoroughly, sneered in her heart, but nodded on her face and said: "What the Yanping family said is good, since you want to build it, then simply build it together, after all, you can't favor one over the other." They are all daughters-in-law of the Cheng family, and they are all planning for the grandchildren of the Cheng family, so it is good to build them together. ”
"It's done, this matter is settled, nephew and daughter-in-law, the craftsman who built the house came in the afternoon, and I asked him to measure it even with the east chamber, and then count the bricks and tiles, and build them on both sides. Build the west chamber first, and when the west wing is built, Qin Niang will move back, and then build the east chamber for you. ”
Li was very satisfied with this arrangement, "Aunt Shi is still knowledgeable and calculating, Cheng, then I will listen to your arrangement." ”
Su Mu smiled and returned to the east chamber.
Li also quickly slipped into the house.
Old man Cheng was so angry that his blood pressure soared, and his eyes turned black for a while.
finally entered the house, and Cheng Zhou didn't care if he would hear it outside, so he slapped the table in the room properly, "Wronged, wronged!" Build a house, they have the face to build a house! Are you a dead one? didn't even say a word, just let them settle things like this. How much money do you get for two houses! ”
Old man Cheng didn't say a word, lay down on the bed, and no matter how Cheng Zhou scolded, he didn't say anything.
In the afternoon, the craftsman mentioned by Su's mother arrived at Cheng's house early.
Su Mu led the craftsman to the yard against the sun, and told him his thoughts to see how the house would be built.
Su Mu is also a literate and hyphenated person, although she has not seen much of the world, but she has a lot of ideas. Combined with the architectural style of their hometown, they quickly discussed the appearance and area of the west wing with the craftsman.
According to Su Mu's requirements, the craftsman measured the place, then wrote and calculated for a long time, calculated the number of bricks and tiles, and then calculated the material silver, as well as the artificial silver.
One should come down, and it will take more than twenty taels of silver.
The courtyard of the Cheng family is very large, and the area of this wing house is not much smaller than the main house of ordinary people, and all of them are made of green bricks and tiles, and the cost is this number.
Su Mu smiled and said, "Not bad, this price is quite fair, by the way, the east wing room will also be built, just like the west wing, the two wings combined, you can give us a cheaper?" ”
The craftsman was also very talkative, and said, "One room is twenty-six taels of silver, and if there are two rooms, it will be fifty taels of silver." Trouble the proprietor's wife to give a deposit of twenty taels of silver first, so I can go and order the bricks and tiles. Tomorrow I'll bring someone over and start digging the foundation. ”
Su Mu smiled and said, "Cheng, you sit down for a while, and I'll go into the house to find my in-laws to get the silver." ”
After saying that, he went straight to the main room.
Old man Cheng and Cheng Zhou listened to the knock on the door, their faces darker than the other.
Cheng Zhoushi was so anxious that a layer of white foam appeared at the corner of his mouth, "Dad, what should I do now!" She's really here to ask for silver! ”
Old man Cheng gritted his teeth and made a decision, "There is only one way now." ”
Cheng Zhoushi looked at him expectantly, "What way?" ”
"Split!" These two words were uttered by him through gritted teeth, "Divide according to their requirements!" ”
"Are you crazy?! According to their demands, we will die! You know how much money it cost to build this house. After building a house, our family foundation will really be hollowed out! ”
Cheng Zhou couldn't wait to use an axe to split Old Man Cheng's brain to see what was inside.
Old man Cheng leaned into her ear very calmly and whispered, "No, do you think we can have the silver left?" If they are really allowed to build a house, I am afraid that they will use this incident as an excuse to continue to stay at home. Only by separating the family can this group of plague gods be sent out of the Cheng family. The Su family is so far away, they will have to leave sooner or later, and after they leave, let's find a way to clean up the Su family! ”
Cheng Zhou thought about it carefully, and it seemed that there was only this way to go.
The Su family tossed so much, just to force them to split up and give the Su family a way to live. As long as they obey the wishes of the Su family, the Su family will naturally not stay in Xiaohe Village for a long time.
After all, they are all people with families, how can they be dragged outside all the time.
