Chapter Ninety-Eight: Proposal to Build a House

"Although it's a pity, but there is no way, it just so happens that the donkey cart is four days away from a month, and we won't do the business of the Ai Qingtuan after these four days.

Although Ai Qingtuan's business is not done, my father can still carry the bamboo products made by your father to the county to sell, not to mention, there are still many people who buy our bamboo products, and there are some silver coins in the account every day. Huang Congjiang said with a look of pity on his face.

"Dad, you have worked hard during this time, and the remaining four days of selling Ai Qingtuan, let the eldest sister go for you, and you can rest at home." Huang Yiyun saw that Huang Congjiang had been in the past month, and insisted on going to the county to sell Ai Qingtuan every day, basically only resting for three or four hours every day.

"It's okay, my father is strong, I eat and live, tomorrow seems to be the temple meeting of Huayun Temple in the county, big sister, if you go to the county, you can just go to Huayun Temple to play." By the way, bow to the Bodhisattva. "Today, when Huang Congjiang was selling Ai Qingtuan in the county, he heard the guests say that tomorrow is the Huayun Temple Fair, and when the time comes, people from ten miles and eight villages in the nearby county will go to the temple to worship the Bodhisattva.

"During this time, you are all tired, if tomorrow is the temple meeting of Huayun Temple, you all go to worship the Bodhisattva, so as to bless our family to be safe. Just keep your mother and your father at home. Huang Li said after seeing the two daughters-in-law with a look of emotion on their faces.

Huang Liu and Huang Jiang were a little hesitant at first, but after being persuaded by Huang Li, they suddenly chattered about the temple meeting, what to bring and how much sesame oil money to add.

"Mother, my son plans to sow sweet potatoes, corn and potatoes in one acre of the remaining four acres of dry land in our family, and the last acre of peanuts, melon seeds, watermelons, melons and other food." Huang Congjiang suddenly said loudly.

"yes, okay." Huang Li had no opinion.

"Mother, and this year I plan to build our house, now it's the rainy season, there are more times when it rains, our roof is thatched, the sun is falling, we live in the house leakage isn't it."

There are also a lot of adobe water seeping in, and if it is not good for us for a long time, it is not good for our health, and the adobe is easy to collapse softly. Huang Congjiang thought about it and said to Huang Li.

As soon as the Huang family heard that they were going to build a house again, they suddenly fell silent and listened to Huang Li and Huang Congjiang talking.

"Our family is here today, boss, if you have anything to say, or what you think, let's hear it." Huang Li pondered for a while and then asked Huang Congjiang.

"Mother, I've already inquired, if our family wants to build a house, build such a big place where our family lives now, and pave the roof with green tiles, which can be built without more than ten taels of silver.

If it is built with green bricks, and two more rooms are expanded for the eldest sister and Shiro to live in, the son estimates that it will take about 20 taels of silver to more than 30 taels of silver.

If my son plans to build a house, May and June are the time when the farm is slack, and my second child and I will go to the town to get some work to do, and after a month, we can also earn some silver money to build a house, and when the rice harvest is busy in July, the farm will be idle in August and September, and we can start building a house in August and September. It is estimated that it will take ten or twenty days, and it will be completed, and we can live in it. Huang Conghe thought about it and replied.

The matter of building a house was that two days ago, when Huang Congjiang saw a leak in the room of several girls, he used a wooden basin to fill water, and the family was busy and did not have time to lay some new straw.

Or the eldest sister moved the stairs, taking advantage of the leisure time, replaced a batch of straw on the roof of the house, and put on a new one, originally these jobs were done by men, but now, it is necessary for the eldest sister to do it, Huang Congjiang felt sorry for his daughter, plus during this time, after selling Ai Qingtuan and making some money, Huang Congjiang was thinking about building a house at home.

"Cheng, since you want to build a house, it's still early in August? Since you want to expand, you and the second child will go up the mountain during this time to see if there are suitable trees and cut them down to be used as beams.

Also, second, you can also make some tables and chairs, and put them in our respective rooms when the time comes, and change the door, and get them all up, if you see our family logging in the village, don't say that we are going to build a house in August. Huang Li first glanced at Huang Pingcheng, and then looked at the others one by one.

"Dad, should we build a house on the same place or buy another foundation and rebuild it?" Suddenly, Huang Yiyun asked Huang Congjiang.

"Let's push the old house and build it in place." Huang Congjiang replied without thinking.

"My daughter thinks that if we want to build a house, we will build a bigger house, build it in a better place, and finally, we will have to buy another foundation and rebuild the house. It is best to build all the houses with blue bricks and tiles, and also divide them into left and right wings and halls.

As for the house we live in now, don't move in front, and the backyard is all built into a bamboo house, Dad, if you want to plant some melons, fruits or vegetables or other things in the bamboo house in winter, the land is a little small now, and it is not enough for us to free up our hands to display. Huang Yiyun thought in his heart.

"Well, how much does it cost? Don't we have the money to build it? When Huang Liu heard the eldest sister's words, he was immediately surprised and stammered.

"I still have to buy a foundation, and I have to build a bigger one, and it will take a long time to build a house, and I have to buy more wages, bricks, and tiles, which will not be built if there are no more than forty taels of silver." Huang Congjiang quickly calculated for a while, and then counted a vague number of words and replied.

When the rest of the Huang family heard this number, they gasped one by one.

Even a few small ones, although they don't know how much forty taels of silver is, they know that they need a lot of money, and they have to sell the Ai Qingtuan for several months to be able to make so much money.

"No, no, it's too expensive, we don't have so much money, eldest sister, you said to build a house, our family can't build it." Before Huang Li could speak, Huang Liu suddenly shook his head and refused.

"Mother, our family is still a few months away from building a house, the eldest sister just mentioned this, there must be a road before the car reaches the mountain, Dad, not to mention, as long as the winter, our family will grow vegetables and fruits and grow them, and after selling them, our family will not worry about no money in the future, and now we just don't have so much money at present."

"Mother, what do you think?" After Huang Yiyun saw Huang Congjiang's appearance, he knew in his heart that Huang Congjiang was moved by what he said.

Huang Congjiang has always been a person who dares to take risks, takes responsibility, and is determined and persevering.

Since Huang Congjiang wants to plant melons and fruits in the greenhouse in winter, he will definitely give it a go after a lot of work.
