Chapter 116: Buying Belongings
After the Dragon Boat Festival, except for the main house where I live now, all other buildings have been completed.
The Shoukang Temple of Erjin was the first to be cleaned up, dried for a few days, and the fire kang was also burned for a few days.
The Dong family of four moved into the first floor of Shoukang Hospital.
In just one day, the craftsmen demolished the original main courtyard.
When Dong Changhe was building the main courtyard, the foundation was the foundation of the second floor.
At that time, Master Cai also joked that he thought long-term.
At this time, he also had to sigh that people have no long-term worries, and now he only needs to let the craftsmen lay the underground pipes to rebuild the house, and there is no need to re-lay the foundation at all.
Dong Chengze, who has been seven months old, has become a "reptile", and he does not feel unfamiliar with the new environment, but seems to be very excited.
I like to spend most of my time with Cher. Maybe he felt that Xue'er was about the same age as himself, and every time he saw Xue'er, he would wave his little fists excitedly and talk to Xue'er "babbling".
Cher likes this little guy more and more, and she doesn't care if her brother can understand it or not, and when her brother babbles, she also talks to him.
said that the house built by the Dong family, said that the fruit trees of the Dong family bloomed again, and said that the dealer in the field had emerged......
The little guy either echoed with "oh oh", or showed two small baby teeth and "giggled".
The two siblings are always so happy.
Life is more hopeful than before, and Yun's mentality has also changed a lot.
She is no longer as harsh as before, and she treats herself and Cher a lot more leniently.
I changed a lot of clothes without patches for Xue'er, and prepared two new sets of clothes for Xue'er every season.
Cher grew taller. Seeing that the child is growing fast, in order not to waste Yun's wealth when making clothes, Xue'er will grow taller in the future, as long as the sleeves and clothes are placed, she can still wear it.
The housework is also done alternately by the mother, and Xue'er is no longer left to take care of it all alone.
Xue'er didn't expect that her current life would be so much better than that of the original owner, and she often thinks about how good it would be if the original owner hadn't given up!
Although without her departure, there would be no rebirth of oneself.
But the dissipation of such a beautiful life still makes Xue'er sigh from time to time.
But no matter how she feels, what is gone is gone, and no one can get it back.
The days passed in a hectic way. In late May, the Dong family's new house was completed, and the supporting facilities of the yard were also completed, and the entire Dong house took on a new look.
Even the gate was repainted, and after calculating the auspicious days of the upper beam, Dong Changhe sent out an invitation.
Before that, Dong Changhe re-purchased some belongings, the big ones were domestic animals, two adult cattle, one male and one female. A horse that is exactly the right match for the current horse.
A donkey, there are now two mills at home, and even a plate of mills has been added to the backyard, and having a donkey saves some of the manpower.
The yard is big, Huzi alone can't see it, Huzi is now officially moving into the main courtyard, Dong Changhe picked up a yellow grass dog cub in Shuijiazhuang and put it in the gatehouse of the backyard to raise.
The big flower cat gave its own strength, and brought back a pure black cat in the spring. When the black cat arrives at Dong's house, it is like returning to his own home, and it is estimated that he will not leave.
So you don't have to worry about rat infestation at home.
These are large items added, small items such as pots and pans, jars, jars, etc., Dong Changhe also thought of it and bought a lot of it.
Shangliang is a big event in the countryside, and it is also a rather serious matter.
Xue'er also heard a story from the Yun family, which was related to Shangliang.
It is said that a long time ago, there was a landlord in Changhai County, who was very kind and got along very well with his neighbors. He also often helped the poor people, and was a well-known good man.
One year, the landlord's family wanted to rebuild a new house and asked for the help of craftsmen.
In order to make the craftsman eat well, the lady in charge removed the bones and heads of the fish before serving them to the table.
When the foreman saw it, he thought that it was the leftover fish that the landlord had just eaten and brought them to eat, and he was very annoyed.
So when he was on the beam, he secretly made a small carriage, and put the carriage on the girder while others were not paying attention, and the horse's head was facing outward.
No one noticed about it, and it passed like this.
After a few years, the landlord's old family was already poor and only that house was left, and when he met the foreman again, the landlord dragged him to dinner.
During the banquet, the landlord's wife served another fish, and the landlord pointed to the fish and sighed, "Back then, the conditions at home were good, and the fish for you were all picked off the bones, and only the fish meat was cooked."
Now our poor family can't even afford to eat a fish, so in order to support the façade, it seems that the bowl is full, so we have to cook it with fish bones and fish heads. ”
The foreman was horrified at this time, and only then did he know that he was a villain.
Guiltily, he said, "Brother, your house is also in disrepair, let me help you renovate the roof!"
The landlord shook his head with a wry smile and said, "I already plan to sell this mansion and find another way out, where is the money and heart to renovate this old mansion?" ”
Where is the foreman willing to give up, he gave many examples to the landlord Lao Cai, all of which are the stories of those who started from scratch again after being down, and also said that he would look at feng shui, and that the owner of his house would definitely be rich in the future and must not be sold.
The landlord was moved, and then the foreman was in love.
The foreman was guilty, and renovated the roof for the landlord for free, and secretly turned the head of the pony carriage on the girder around, with the horse's head turned inward.
After a few more years, the landlord turned over again and became a more famous landlord in Changhai County.
Although this is just a story, it is almost a story that everyone knows in Changhai County.
Therefore, when every family is building a new house, the master will be present in person when the craftsman is on the beam and capped, for fear that the craftsmen will also put a small carriage or something for their own house!
This has become an unwritten custom in the local area.
The upper beam is to screen the auspicious day, just like the groundbreaking, the date and hour must be calculated, and it is not wrong at all.
The Yun family has been learning divination for a while now, but Dong Changhe didn't believe her, so he personally found a feng shui master to calculate the date and hour.
The Dong family's Shangliang was very lively on this day.
Not only did some villagers from Dongjia Village come to cheer, but relatives from the Dong family and the Yun family also came.
Even Qin San'er's eldest son, Qin Zizhong, who has never looked down on the Dong family, also came to congratulate him in person on behalf of his father.
Xue'er is also the first time to get in close contact with this uncle who has been "famous for a long time" in the Dong family.
Uncle Qin San'er had a total of two sons-in-law, Qin Zizhong was his eldest son, and the second son was accidentally injured by a son of an official eunuch when he was fifteen years old and died.
