Chapter 199: Spreading Falsehood
"This yard has also been bought, and this will be our home in the future, since it is a home, it must have the appearance of a home, at least it must be comfortable to live in, right? After dinner, come with me and we'll clean up the house. ”
"How do you clean it up?"
Li Qinglin glanced at his own dilapidated thatched house, which was already in tatters like this.
At most, put two more layers of thatch on the roof of the leaky house, and no matter how much, what else can be cleaned up?
Jiang Cheng'er didn't continue to pay attention to Qinglin, but solved the lunch as quickly as possible.
As soon as she thought of tidying up the house, Jiang Cheng'er's heart was full of thoughts.
There are so many free materials that don't need money here, as long as you are willing to put in the effort, this thatched house can be cleaned up and lived comfortably!
After eating, Jiang Cheng'er took Qinglin out of the door.
As far as the eye can see, the countryside is full of materials that she can move home to decorate the house.
In this afternoon, Qinglin was left to do hard work for Jiang Cheng'er, helping her pull tree trunks, and helping Jiang Cheng'er find sawtooth, but his legs were painful.
Jiang Cheng'er was naturally not idle, she pulled several buckets of soil home from outside, and picked up a lot of broken tiles outside the uninhabited houses in the village and brought them home. She wants all the stuff that everyone thinks is garbage, and even if someone sees it, they ignore it.
It's like the stake that Qinglin pulled home, which has been thrown in the field of Chunhe's sister-in-law's house for a long time.
But it's too troublesome to throw it out, and Chunhe doesn't bother to move away, so this Qinglin is taken away, and it really solves Chunhe's problem.
"I said this Jiang Cheng'er girl, what are you doing picking up garbage at home!"
People passing by can't help but be curious to ask.
Jiang Cheng'er wiped the sweat stains on her forehead: "It's useful, it's useful!" ”
Everyone was curious about what Jiang Cheng'er was busy with all day, but no one was embarrassed to come to see what was going on.
Even Li Qinglin didn't know what Jiang Cheng'er wanted these things for.
"Sister, be careful that the tile cuts your hand. This is the saw I borrowed from the carpenter, you want it, and I'll find it for you again!" ”
"Don't want anything, you sit down and rest for a while, and then help me get two buckets of water."
At this moment, Jiang Cheng'er was leaning over and carefully piling the buckets of soil on the ground, and then poured water into them to stir the viscous.
There's no cement here, so let's make do with mud.
Qinglin fetched two buckets of water and sent them over, Jiang Cheng'er just started to work on the mud, she pulled the sleeves of her coat to her shoulders, and picked up the mud on the ground with both hands and piled it up on the corner of the wall little by little.
Within a while, Jiang Cheng'er built that pile of mud into a flower pond.
Just in the corner of the wall on the right side of the courtyard, you can grow flowers and vegetables, at least it looks better than the bare yard now.
Li Qinglin couldn't help much, he just stood aside and watched, and he was dumbfounded!
After Jiang Cheng'er finished the flower pond, she put the broken tiles on it and built another layer on the outside, so that the mud fence would be stronger.
"I'll go find some dry bamboo tomorrow and come back, and I'm going to build another shed in the yard to raise some chickens." In this way, our family will have eggs to eat every day in the future, and when the chicken is fattened in the wax moon, we will slaughter it again! Jiang Cheng'er looked at Qinglin and said with a smile.
That's a good idea, and it's a good idea.
Jiang Cheng'er calculated carefully, the last time I inquired in the bazaar, it was ten cents a hen cub. And the big rooster only costs three pennies, and carefully calculates to raise ten hens and ten roosters. Although this hen is not cheap, but in the future, chickens lay eggs, and eggs lay chickens.
Not only did they not lack eggs to eat, but they also hoped that the hens would lay more eggs, and they could also exchange them for some silver in the town.
"Sister, you should take a break quickly, don't get tired. You've been busy since lunch, and you haven't stopped at all, so why don't you tell me what you do with all this stuff, and I'll do it! ”
Qinglin looked at Jiang Cheng'er and asked distressedly.
How can I say that Qinglin is also a man, and he is definitely not as careful as her in his work.
So even if it is handed over to Qinglin, Jiang Cheng'er is not at ease.
She sat down on the ground tired, shook her head and refused: "If you really want to do something for me, just fetch me a bowl of water, as for anything else, you can't help much." ”
After hearing Jiang Cheng'er's words, Qinglin went to the well as fast as he could, and brought Jiang Cheng'er a bowl of water.
Jiang Cheng'er picked up the bowl, raised her head and lifted it up.
She finally understood why the wages for moving bricks in the new century were so high, and this manual work was not something that ordinary people could do!
"Sister, you're tired like this. Why don't you do it yet, or I'll call Brother Han to come to our house to help? Li Qinglin looked at Jiang Cheng'er and asked.
Thinking about it carefully, since the last time Jiang Cheng'er and Han Baichuan had an argument, Jiang Cheng'er hadn't seen Han Baichuan's figure for a long time. In this way, Han Baichuan is quite cautious.
Yijiang Cheng'er was even more annoyed: "People have their own things to do, and they are not related to us, how did I tell you last time, don't bother others if you have nothing to do." ”
Qinglin saw that Jiang Cheng'er was angry, so he didn't dare to go on.
Jiang Cheng'er worked all day and sawed the tree stump and made two small wooden piers by herself.
I built a flower pond in the yard, and the whole day passed really quickly.
For a few days in a row, Jiang Cheng'er almost devoted himself to the cause of renovating the house, and Jiang Cheng'er also built several flower ponds in the backyard.
However, the flower pond in the backyard has a lot of origins, which is different from the one in the front yard.
The flower pond in the front yard was completely built for aesthetics, and the flower pond in the back yard, Jiang Cheng'er planned to go into the mountain again to see if some precious medicinal herbs could be brought down from the mountain and planted in his yard.
First, it is convenient to breed, and secondly, it is planted in the backyard, and ordinary people will not know about it, and they don't have to worry about being seen and stolen by someone with a heart.
Half a month has passed, and Jiang Cheng'er's home has finally been cleaned up.
The roof of the thatched house was replaced by Jiang Cheng'er, but it was only changed to the wooden roof of an ordinary family.
No matter how you look at it, this thatched house may collapse at any time, but now that Jiang Cheng'er has limited funds in her hands, she can live one more day, and when she has spare money in her hand for a while, she will definitely overturn and rebuild this thatched house.
Although it was just a change of top, it made people red.
After all, Jiang Cheng'er and Qinglin are still young, and this is inexplicably buying a house and changing the roof, which is inevitably criticized.
Some people say that this Jiang Cheng'er ran to the town twice in three days and didn't know what he was doing, and he just spread it like this, and some people said that he saw Jiang Cheng'er in the land of fireworks, and he said that he had a nose and eyes.
The villagers are even more rapid in spreading falsehoods among them.
Jiang Cheng'er just bought chicken seeds in the town and went home, and the fat aunt on the front foot entered the door with the back foot.
The fat aunt was holding a handful of melon seeds in her hand, and looked at Jiang Cheng'er with a smile while sipping on melon seeds.
"Jiang Cheng'er girl, you have to spend a lot of silver on this chicken species, right?"
"Hmm." Jiang Cheng'er buried her head in putting the chicken seeds into the chicken shed she had built before, she still had a lot of work to do, so naturally she didn't care about entertaining the fat aunt.
Li Qinglin doesn't like this fat aunt even more, so she lives behind their house, and on weekdays, the fat aunt likes to sit on the big locust tree at the entrance of the village and talk about the family's short. So Qinglin didn't have a good face when he saw the fat aunt.
"Jiang Cheng'er girl, you tell the fat aunt. Where did you get all this money, you haven't heard the people in the village say anything about you, it's hard to hear. Fat aunt believes that you are definitely not that kind of person! ”
"What kind of person?" Jiang Cheng'er closed the door of the chicken shed and instantly raised her head to look at the fat aunt.
The fat aunt hadn't swallowed a mouthful of melon seeds, and she didn't know what to say when she was choked by Jiang Cheng'er's words.
"They all say you're ...... in town"
"Are they or are you the fat aunt? Fat aunt, if you are too idle to go home and take care of your son, I heard that he is already three years old, and he still can't talk about it! ”
Jiang Cheng'er is not a good stubble, and besides, Jiang Cheng'er would not be so confident if she didn't have full evidence.
The fat aunt was annoyed and ashamed and threw a handful of melon seed shells in her hand on the ground in the courtyard of Jiang Cheng'er's house, she glared at Jiang Cheng'er angrily: "What do you mean by this?" Blessed is my son speaking late! Look at you, I care about you, and you still bite me. No wonder your grandmother Wang said that you were a white-eyed wolf who couldn't be fed. ”
"Just mind your own business! What am I like, and what do I have to do with you? Jiang Cheng'er's waist was straight, and she looked at the fat aunt with an angry face.
The fat aunt ate the deflated noodles and was the color of pork liver.
"Okay, I can see your face clearly!" The fat aunt turned away in a rage.
Before leaving, the fat aunt also glanced at the yard of Jiang Cheng'er's house, and said that there were so many chickens in the chicken shed, who wouldn't be greedy?
This time, Jiang Cheng'er toasted and didn't eat and drink, so it's no wonder she!
Li Qinglin closed the door with a smile, turned around and gave Jiang Cheng'er a thumbs up: "Sister, you are really amazing, that fat aunt is a well-known shrew in our village, and you dare to fight her." ”
"What am I afraid of, I don't care about it! Don't read the jokes, hurry up and get to work. ”
After Jiang Cheng'er finished speaking, she glanced at Li Qinglin.
After Li Qinglin was scolded by Jiang Cheng'er, he honestly buried his head in hard work, and even dared not take a breath on the sidelines.
After all, he also knew Jiang Cheng'er's temper, and besides, now that no one bullied their sisters and brothers, Qinglin would not bother with those people.
"All in all, if the chickens in this chicken shed are fed until the end of the year, it is estimated that they can multiply several times! In the future, my sister will let you have eggs to eat and chicken soup to drink every day. Makes you want to vomit when you eat! Jiang Cheng'er said and looked at Li Qinglin squinting his eyes and smiling.
