Although they have land at home, they are reluctant to take so much wheat flour to steam when steaming buns.

They took three mouthfuls and killed a bun, but they were too embarrassed to take it again, so they immediately went to work.

The upper beams are all pulled up to the house manually, which is really laborious.

However, the good thing is that they are all croppers and have strength.

The children in the village knew that the Shen family was on the beam today, so they came early and waited.

The children were watching the excitement below, watching the beams go up to the room one by one.

Shen Xiuyuan was watching below, not letting the children get close, for fear that something would happen.

Mu Dong Solstice is to prepare lunch at home.

However, in the middle of noon, she also deliberately boiled tea and brought brown sugar over to let them rest and drink some sugar tea.

Sugar is expensive enough for the average family.

If there is no confinement at home, there is generally no sugar.

These people were very happy when they saw that there was still sugar tea to drink.

After drinking the sugar water, I suddenly felt more energetic.

Shen Xiuyuan distributed the remaining sugar tea to the children, and the children lined up to drink one by one, all excited as if it was the New Year.

When the girder was about to go up, the children ran home and called the adults.

The front and back of the new house were crowded with people.

At ten o'clock in the middle of the day, the man who went up the beam carried the girder with a big red cloth.

When the beam was resting, the person in charge of the cannon began to light the cannon.

The firecrackers crackled, and the person who sprinkled the lotus bun hurriedly sprinkled the lotus bun below.

Adults and children alike came to rob them.

The custom in this place is that the more people who come to grab Hualien buns, the better, and the more there are.

Hualien buns were scattered basket after basket.

The person who spread the bun didn't expect the Shen family to be so generous and prepare so much.

After the beam was finished, the people dispersed.

These seven or eight people were also going home for dinner, but Mu Dongzhi said that he had already prepared a meal.

Wang Dapang said: "There are so many of us eating, and we don't have so many bowls, so we go home to eat and come back after eating for a while." ”

"The eldest brother said that he wanted to take care of the rice, and he bought ten bowls yesterday and came back, and there are bowls." Mu Dongzhi said with a smile.

Those people were very surprised, did they buy more bowls in order to manage the rice?

Most people go to borrow bowls everywhere, but I didn't expect their family to buy bowls.

"I'm still hot." Mu Dongzhi said and asked Shen Xiuyuan to bring out the soup in the basin.

Their pot is small and can't cook for so many people, so she makes it in two pots.

When those people saw that the Shen family really wanted to keep them for dinner, they no longer shirked.

The soup smelled so good.

Mu Dongzhi makes fish soup noodles and steamed buns.

She rolled out the dough leaves and poured them into the fish soup, which was not thin or thick, and then she was full of steamed buns.

Several people were holding bowls and smelling the fragrance in the bowls, all of them were very excited.

One person picked it with chopsticks, saw that it was a good noodle leaf, and said, "Good noodle leaves." ”

A few other people immediately picked it up and took a look, and sure enough, it was wheat flour leaves, and they immediately sucked it up, and it was not too hot.

The space in the house was small, and they squatted in the yard with bowls in twos and threes to eat.

Mu Dongzhi carried a basket to scatter the buns, and one person took two buns and ate them with the noodles and leaves.

Everyone was thinking in their hearts that the Shen family could still eat enough and eat well without land, and they didn't know what they were doing.

Wang Dapang looked at the fried fish, didn't know what this was, took a bite and tasted it, and said, "This is like a fish." ”

Wang Heizhuang said: "Where is the fish? The fish are all fishy. ”

"It's the fish, look at this thorn." Wang Dapang said excitedly as if he had discovered a new continent.

Several people were curious to see the fish in their bowls.

They grew up near the river, and it's not that they haven't seen or eaten fish.

It's just that they haven't eaten such a fish.

The fish soup they usually eat is boiled directly in the pot.

If the living conditions are better, put some tofu in it.

The soup tastes fishy, so everyone doesn't like to drink it very much.

However, this one of the Shen family is very special.

Not only is it delicious, but it also has a lot of oil and gas, and it is not fishy.

These people are well-behaved, and one person only drinks one bowl of soup, and he doesn't drink any more than one sip.

It's this rule to go out as a guest, only eat one bowl, and the owner of the province doesn't prepare much, which is embarrassing.

You can eat as many buns as you like.

After eating and drinking, they hurried to prepare the rafters.

The rafters are not directly covered with tiles, but a layer of straw mud is first laid inside.

Then spread the tiles on the straw mud.

It's definitely a lot of work, but fortunately there are seven or eight of them.

So, in one afternoon, all the tiles were ready for rafters.

In the evening, Mu Dongzhi took care of another meal.

It's just a pheasant broth with wild vegetable pancakes.

These people are all stupidly full.

Mu Dongzhi gave them the salary, ten copper plates per person.

Those people had food and drink, and they were paid, and of course they were happy.

"If there is anything in your family in the future, say it." Wang Dapang said.

"Okay." Shen Kuan sent them out.

After the group of people left, Mu Dongzhi and Shen Xiuyuan went to collect their own cloth.

Shen Kuan didn't know what to do with the lantern.

The two of them wrapped the cloth neatly and put it in the room, and came out to continue to be busy.

There are a few grasshoppers, and each has ten copper plates, which is the same as Wang Dapang's daily wages.

I really don't know how rich that place in Kyoto is, is it all made of gold bricks on the ground, how can you want such a worthless thing?

However, she didn't care so much, as long as she made things, Master Wu would pay the silver.

Shen Xiuyuan's engraving is getting faster and faster.

Mu Dongzhi had an idea and asked, "Brother Yuan, can we weave some baskets, and then directly carve the characters into big ones?" ”

Shen Xiuyuan was stunned for a moment, the corners of his mouth curved slightly, and said, "Yes, but we have to make what Master Wu wants first." ”

"Why don't I make up a carving for you now, and bring it over with the sample basket tomorrow for Master Wu to see."

"Okay."

Mu Dongzhi began to weave baskets.

After she finished making it up, Shen Xiuyuan began to engrave a big Fu character, and a big Lu character was engraved over there.

People from wealthy families in Kyoto should like this kind of basket of blessings and blessings, and ordinary poor people will not use it.

The two were busy until midnight, and Shen Kuan still didn't come back.

Mu Dongzhi was a little worried, and asked, "Why hasn't the big brother come back yet?"

Otherwise, we'll go out and find out. ”

"Hmm." Shen Xiuyuan also dropped the work in his hand and came out with Mu Dongzhi.

As soon as the two closed the door, they heard movement in the new house.

They walked over lightly and found that Shen Kuan had filled in all the soil in the room.

"Brother." Shen Xiuyuan shouted.

Shen Kuan turned around and saw that it was the two of them, so he asked, "Why don't you sleep yet?" ”

Shen Xiuyuan has mixed feelings in his heart, the eldest brother is like a father, probably like this, right?

He asked them why they hadn't slept yet, but he hadn't rested himself.
