"What are you drawing?" Zeng stepped through the door, tilting his head to the ground for a moment.

What is the symbol...... Lin Huan'er held her forehead, "Grandma, I drew the design of our new house." She pulled Zeng to her side, pointed to the picture on the ground with a bamboo stick and explained, "Didn't you say that you would give me an enlarged tank in the west wing?" I thought about it, the west wing is so big, and the enlargement tank is a bit wasteful. ”

"You see, the door is a stove, and there is a fire kang in the back."

"We don't have any bricklayers here who know how to make a fire, I'm afraid we'll have to look for it in the county." Zeng hesitated, "Is the fire kang useful?" It should be quite expensive when it is plated. ”

"Of course it works." Lin Huan'er patiently explained to her grandmother, "For example, after the nine plum systems, it needs to be dried and dried, but it is rainy in summer, and even if there is a grass shed to dry, it is easy to be drenched in the rain. ”

"After the plum season has passed, we can also dry some dried peaches and dried loquat to make flower and fruit tea and sell, and we can also make a lot of money."

"We are facing the river, and in winter the house will be wet and cold, and in winter we will sleep on the kang so that Grandma's legs will not hurt so much."

Zeng's perennial work, a knee pain in winter, this is ** sick, as soon as I heard that my granddaughter was so concerned about herself, the fire kang had a lot to do with making money, she immediately gritted her teeth and said, "When the family work is done, I will go to the county seat to ask!" ”

"Hmm!" Lin Huan'er nodded, she also had to take advantage of Zeng's absence to go to the town, and the two foxes were still in her space.

She took the stick back and continued, "The ondol must be large, both walls are windows, and when the windows are opened, there will be convective wind, and it will be easier to dry things." ”

"Outside the kang house is the preparation room, where you can prepare ingredients, and outside the preparation room is the entrance to the storage room and the cellar, and the storage room holds the ten large vats, and then there is the cellar."

Zeng looked at his little granddaughter strangely, where did he learn this novel word, it sounded strange, but as soon as the granddaughter said it, she understood what it meant.

"Grandma," Lin Huan'er raised her face to look at Zeng, "I want to dig the cellar a little bigger, okay?" It's best to dig all the way to the courtyard wall. Today, I heard Aunt Bai of the Liu family say that some old farmers store the sand fruits in the cellar with ice, and sell them at a high price when they are not harvested in the second year. ”

"But ......" Zeng looked at his little granddaughter, "Huan'er, you think very well, but if we want to build it like this, I'm afraid we won't have the money to make furniture." ”

"The furniture can be beaten later, it's not easy to move the soil once, let's first lay the frame of the house and take our time," Lin Huan'er bent his eyes and smiled, "Moreover, when the house is built, we can make the nine-system plum, I think the plum will definitely be sold for a good price." When the money is sold, let's buy furniture little by little. ”

"Good!" Zeng slapped his face and made up his mind, "Just listen to Huan'er, the money can be earned again, and I only have this time left in my life to build a house, old lady!" ”

"No, it won't!" Lin Huan'er interrupted Zeng's words, "In the future, I will let Grandma live in the town and live in the county!" ”

……

On the second day, under the leadership of Wang Song, the construction team came to Zeng's house in Xiaxi Village early in the morning to worship the land lord, and in a burst of firecrackers, Lin Xinfang officially broke ground.

After a while, the men who came to help also had breakfast, and came over in twos and threes, there was not much work in the field at this time, and many people could not eat enough at home, so it was better to come and help with the work, and they had to eat a meal, and there were two copper plates a day.

In addition, there are three aunts who have a good relationship with Zeng's family, and were kindly invited by Zeng's to help cook, they were embarrassed to come over to cook and eat only at noon, so they also followed the family early in the morning to help do some light work.

Lin Huan'er hadn't seen so many people for a long time, and suddenly there were many more people in the family, and her whole nerves were tensed, and she habitually entered a state of alert.

At this time, someone was hiding in the corner, and patted Lin Huan'er on the back when she turned the corner, "Sister Huan'er!" ”

Lin Huan'er lowered her head and dodged the man's hand, and suddenly turned around to look back, "Liu Jian? Brother Liu Gong? ”

Liu Jian was stunned for a moment, was he a little reckless? Look at this girl scared. But how can this girl react so sensitively, as if she has practiced. He scratched his head and forgot what he was going to say.

It was Liu Gong who played Liu Jian in the back, "Reckless." He looked at Lin Huan'er, "We're here to help, what do we need to do?" ”

Lin Huan'er glanced at the foundation, there were enough people digging the foundation, and she was a little embarrassed to say, "Grandma and Grandpa Li have taken people to the brick kiln to pull bricks, can you ask the two brothers to help unload the bricks later?" After speaking, she glanced at Liu Gong and Liu Jianqi's long figure.

I remember Li Zheng said that these two people are the young masters of the dart game? I don't know if I can do farm work.

The two brothers of the Liu family said very happily, "Okay, then let's go to the village entrance to greet Grandma Great." ”

Lin Huan'er sighed softly in her heart.

After sending these two people, she had the time to feed the chickens, put away the stove a little, so as not to make too much chaos when making lunch, and when she walked out of the door, she found three familiar figures.

To be exact, it is a familiar figure in his memory, after crossing over, Lin Huan'er has never seen them.

The man in the lead, who was tall and thin, looked a little stupid in a patched cloth shirt, and next to him, a thin girl with braids timidly grabbed the placket of his shirt and led a little boy who was a head shorter than her.

"Second uncle?" Lin Huan'er hurriedly greeted him, and looked at the two children again, "Sister Hua'er, Brother Lin Nian." She greeted.

"Why are you here?"

"We're here to help you work! Where's my mother? Erbolin Yang puffed up his chest and said in a proud tone.

Instead, Lin Hua'er pulled Lin Yang's shirt and explained timidly, "Uncle said that Grandma's family wants to build a house, and urged us to come over to help, is it okay?" My dad is very capable, and my younger brother and I are both grown up and can do a lot of work. ”

Lin Huan'er tugged at the corners of her mouth.

I'm afraid that the uncle asked them to help with the work is fake, and it is true to kick them out of the house to save rations and make money by the way. She glanced at the three of them, "What about the second uncle?" ”

"My aunt found a job washing clothes for my mother, and my mother lives in a shop in the town to wash clothes for people these days." Lin Huaer replied.

Sure enough, if the second aunt was at home, she would definitely not let these three people run over. In my memory, the second aunt is very measured, and since she has divided the family, she will not come over to take advantage of it again.

It takes skill and strength to help build a house, Lin Huaer and Lin Nian are the first to rule out, there is no strength and no skills, the second uncle has a lot of strength, but he has a little difficulty in understanding the command of others, in this kind of messy house building scene, it would be good if he could keep it from making trouble.

But these three people are really here, and they can't really drive them away, so why don't they just add three more bowls of rice and six copper plates? I can only admit it.
