Chapter 409 Buying an Old House

Originally, he was a shopkeeper in a small town in the north, but his father and mother in the countryside listened to the rumors, and had to drag his family to move south, and he was a filial child who could not listen to his father, so he could only accompany him, thinking that he would be able to settle accounts and never starve to death, but because of the people who were mentally stimulated from the north were scattered, the reputation of the northerners was ruined, and no one dared to ask him.

And the family was also separated because of a large wave of people when they came over, and their life and death were uncertain.

He also said that he wanted to work for five years to earn some money and go back to his hometown to find his relatives.

But as long as it is this day, it will be a good job.

Yuan Dashuo liked his calmness and sincerity, so he nodded and said yes.

Such a large group of people, there is no place to place, so let them sit on the ground in the courtyard first, the courtyard of the Yuan family is paved with stone slabs, and it is very clean every day.

The men sat down obediently and rested, and they didn't know how to cook.

There's nothing to do.

The five women and the two little girls were already busy with prunes in the kitchen for lunch.

The women still know how to cook, and they are also very familiar with kneading dough and making cakes.

The two little girls were led by Ju Ju to choose vegetables, and Qiao Yu returned to the vegetable field outside to continue picking vegetables, so many people had to pay some vegetables.

The kitchen was methodically busy.

Yuan Dashuo and his wife took Zhong Feng to the kitchen door, and then beckoned Ximei to come out.

Ximei agreed, wiped her hands and smiled, and asked what she was told.

Yuan Dashuo and his wife told Yuan Man's proposal, and let them take the newcomer to work in the future, and the couple immediately understood that this was to reuse them.

They were both very happy to be able to help, and there was no such thing as not agreeing.

Mr. and Mrs. Yuan Dashuo also laughed.

Then let Zhong Feng go outside and talk to the brothers surnamed Qiao Muhu.

In the future, they will also have to help bring a group of people, and of course they are not allowed to bully newcomers.

Zhong Feng promised that this would not happen.

Yuan Dashuo and his wife also smiled and nodded and said that they believed them, and when Yuan Man saw that they had negotiated, he pulled her father and mother aside to discuss things and arrange for them to stay.

Yuan Man's method was feasible, and Yuan Dashuo immediately said that he would ask people.

Yuan Dashuo said that he immediately went to the old village chief's house to inquire.

Wen watched this group of people sitting in the courtyard in a gloomy manner, and they were strange and frightened.

However, they did not look around, but honestly, for fear of making the master's family angry.

Prunes returned to the kitchen to help, but Wen still couldn't stay and intervened.

When the women saw the plainly dressed but well-dressed Wen, they immediately became restrained.

Ximei taught them to say hello to Madame, and they all hurried to say hello.

Wen didn't scare them rashly, just smiled and nodded and said that she was also here to help.

As for calling her prunes, they are used to being called by them, and what Cao Guan Wu Gaotian said also makes sense, the main family is the main family, and there is still something to prove his prestige.

Seeing that the lord's family had come to help in person, the five women and the two little girls were more cautious in their work.

Prunes didn't say anything.

Yuan Man simply helped to cook, otherwise how could so many people be busy with the food they ate, and the men outside were also called by Zhong Feng to get familiar with the environment.

There are a lot of people and they are all good people, and lunch is still ready quickly.

A big pot of mung bean soup is really a lot of soup, not thick bean porridge.

In such a hot weather, adding a little sugar is a drink to quench your thirst, and it is also good to have cakes.

Then there are several large plates of fried vegetables in lard, plus a small stir-fried pork.

Oil and water are still available.

Because there were too many people, Yuan Man simply asked them to make them look like meat buns.

Break open the fluffy multigrain cakes and add greens and stir-fried meat.

They all did this, put them in a clean wooden basin, and brought them out for them to eat.

The mung bean soup was also used by taking out the empty bowls before, and it was enough.

The victims were originally hungry, and now they couldn't bear to eat delicious and full food, and they ate several pots of sandwich cakes at once.

This meal soothed their hungry stomachs and soothed their restless hearts.

The owner who can give them such food is not a bad person, and the benefits they say are indeed guaranteed.

I really have a good life.

The victims were even more obedient.

Over there, Yuan Dashuo was still checking with the old village chief who owned the old houses near the Yuan family's fields, and then found someone to ask if they were willing to rent or sell to the Yuan family.

Now the Yuan family still has more than three hundred taels of savings, and they can continue to earn it in the later stage.

So I really have the ability to buy the old houses around.

But this matter still has to be discussed in detail, so Yuan Dashuo will not be able to come back for a while.

Seeing this, Yuanman had so many people in the house who lacked everything, and these victims also needed a change of clothes, so she said that she had to go out to the town to buy things.

Seeing this, Wen didn't stop him, but just said that he was going to follow along.

Yuan Man thought that it would be good to take her mother out for a walk, so he nodded and agreed.

Prunes told the victims to rest for a while after they had eaten and then prepared to familiarize themselves with the work.

There were Ximei Zhongfeng at home and they watched, and Yuan Man was also very relieved, so he took Da Hei and went to the town. Xiao Hei had already been given space by Yuan Man early in the morning to let it play, mainly because he was afraid that too many strangers would startle it, and he was afraid that it would scare others.

This trip came and went in a hurry, so I came back after shopping.

No further delay.

Dishes, chopsticks, basins, plates, and cloth, straw mats, thin quilts, plus a pile of grain.

The ox cart was full.

After the town was chaotic some time ago, the security became more severe, and there were officials patrolling everywhere.

So the mother and daughter are safe.

On the road, because the town is stable, a large group of people flock to the town, so there are many people coming and going.

The mother and daughter came back so smoothly, and it was almost dark when they got home.

Yuandashuo also brought good news here, and the old houses near the fields could be bought.

There are three old houses in total, all of which are connected to each other and have courtyards close to each other.

In addition, the contract has been signed, just wait for the next two days to transfer the title deed.

When Yuan Man and Wen went to the town to purchase, Yuan Dashuo also took the victims to clean up the old houses after finishing things, some of them had loose roof tiles, and some of them were demolished and moved to new homes, only the walls.

Yuan Dashuo led the victims to clean up the inside of the two better rooms.

In the near future, they can squeeze in a small courtyard for a dozen people, and then live separately when it is repaired.

The old-fashioned courtyard at the end of the village is composed of a main wing room and two small rooms on the left and right, which are the kitchen and firewood room, and a small courtyard in the middle.

There is a hall in the main wing, and two rooms outside the room can be occupied.

In the future, meals can be eaten uniformly in the workers' yards, so that their small yards can not be fired.

The kitchen is used to boil water for bathing in winter, and they can't cook and always boil water.
