Chapter 14 Commencement
The doctor arrived in the afternoon, saying that there was a delay on the way.
Chen Jiean's illness was all handled by him. He is the one who says that he is preparing for the future, and he is the one who says miracles.
After carefully inquiring about the medication and daily food, the old doctor left a few words and left in a hurry.
Ji Xiang, who was weak-hearted, only hoped that the old doctor would find it useless after research, so as not to kill people.
Because of the renovation, Wang went to find his aunt. Both families lived at the end of the village, and they also knew the situation on Wang's side, and when they heard that the old house was going to be renovated and they might have to help make food, they immediately agreed.
After another four or five days, Saturday came with a dozen people.
The bricks and tiles and mud that had been ordered were also piled up in the yard.
The old house of the Chen family is sitting in the north and facing south, and the lighting is OK. But Chen Jiean's house is only one window, and it is very small. The whole thing was cramped and dim, and it was not conducive to his recovery.
Since the family has money, it is natural that they will get better, so she discussed with the Wang family to build these three big houses into blue bricks.
She has been thinking about how to use the space in the house to make life more convenient. I asked for a few pieces of paper, scribbled and changed them, and when the construction started, I drew a design drawing.
The Chen family's old house has three large rooms, Chen Xie An lives in the side house, and the Wang family also lives in the side house. The hall in the middle is also a hall for a farmer's house.
The toilet is in the backyard, and I usually have to use a gong bucket to get up at night, which is not very convenient for the two.
So she immediately considered adding a bathroom to the room.
Chen Jiean's house is not small, and a small space can be built into a place. The sewer is paved with small green bricks underneath to facilitate the drainage of the tub.
Next to the bathtub, Ji Xiang was ready to place a wooden toilet. There is no running water here, so design the water tank to be larger, and store more water as soon as possible.
Chen Xie An had seen her design drawings and was curious about these things. Once these things are in the hands of the people of Beijing, they will inevitably cause a lot of turmoil. But seeing that the little daughter-in-law was busy, he also didn't make that cold water with interest.
When he saw the amazing questions of the craftsmen who took over the work, he did not hesitate to push it to the dignitaries and nobles in Kyoto and those Yi people.
It is said to be renovating an old house, but for the Chen family, this is a new construction.
Soon, the news reached Lin's ears.
When Ji's father came back from the field, he saw his mother-in-law carrying a basket and talking to the women of the same village. He knew that she was the mother-in-law of Kuzu Mazi at the end of the village. and his mother-in-law is a virtuous, spicy woman.
When the Lin family saw him, they said goodbye to the mother-in-law of the Ge family.
"What to eat?"
Father Ji is silent, and he usually does things with his head bored, so Lin and him usually don't talk much.
But today is different, she brought a bowl of leftover rice and came to Ji's father, "The head of the family, I heard that the sick ghost of the Chen family was cured, and the doctor said that he couldn't die." ”
Father Ji hummed, it's better not to die, Ji Xiang doesn't have to be a widow when he marries.
Lin Shi saw that he didn't react, and said: "I don't know what blessings the Chen family has accumulated, Ji Xiang married him, his son was sick, and he was able to build a house." I heard that the dilapidated mud house before was all pushed to build green tiles. ”
Father Ji heard that his mother-in-law's tone was wrong, so he took two mouthfuls of rice and kept his face calm.
"Very good."
The Lin family originally wanted Father Ji to come forward to explain to the Chen family, but at the beginning, he thought that the Chen family had no money, so it was decided to be ten taels. Now look at how they are doing, where are they willing to give up.
It was a green brick, although it was said that it would cost forty or fifty taels to build three rooms. Coupled with the bunch of things that the Wang family bought a few days ago, if you want to say that you don't regret it, it's all light.
"You love your daughter, and she is also filial to you. It just so happens that my son is going to school, so why don't you go and ask for money. She is also Ming'er's sister, so she can't help but make some effort. When Ming'er becomes a big official, she can also enjoy happiness. ”
After Lin finished speaking, Father Ji stood up. Before the meal was finished, he went to the house.
I was still wondering here, Ji's father's voice came from the house.
"When Xiang'er was in this house, you couldn't tolerate her. There is only a mouthful of food left and right, you want to sell her, and now that life is good, you are red-eyed and want to make trouble. Okay, if you dare to go, I'll break your legs. ”
As soon as Lin heard this, he shouted out in a loud voice.
"Okay, Ji Dahai, what are you! It was all your fault at the beginning, and my own daughter didn't. And now I'm still talking about that ugly thing that loses money......"
Next door lived the old lady of the Ji family, who came over to listen to the reason, and immediately stood in a line. As for Father Ji, when he heard that his mother was also going, he was slumped.
He's sorry Xiang'er.
No matter how much trouble the Ji family makes, the work here is still in full swing. Soon, the basic house type was built.
On Saturday, he was discussing the details with Ji Xiang. She sneezed violently, and Chen Xie An carried a coat for him to put on.
Uncle Zhou said, anyway, if there are more bricks and tiles, change the backyard as well. Also, he liked our design so much that he thought it would give us less money. ”
Chen Xie saddle head, this design in Kyoto, is also very popular.
Then he said, it is better to have a bath room on the edge of the house, and there should be no windows around it. If you don't think it's troublesome to carry water, you can also dig a hearth underneath, and then burn wood to heat the water when you need it.
It's not a water heater, but you can't adjust hot and cold water.
It's just that in this way, the construction period will be delayed for a few more days.
"It's time to eat."
She was worrying about it, and Wang and Aunt Lian had already set up a table in the outer kitchen.
The fat is large, the sugar is evenly colored, and it is a large pot full of meat.
On the small table inside, there is chicken soup. This is specifically for Chen Jie'an.
beckoned the workers to come over for dinner, and Ji Xiang and Chen Jie'an also served on the table. The chicken broth is golden and shiny, the oil slick is sucked up by the shiitake mushrooms and potatoes, and the ginseng and wolfberries underneath float up as the spoon is scooped.
"Xianggong, this is what I have been stewing for many hours. Although the chicken is old, the soup is thick. Mother, even auntie, come and eat. ”
The two people who were busy over there answered, and Chen Xie An took a sip of soup, which was light and delicious, not greasy or greasy, and gentle on his spleen and stomach.
He recovered quickly, and last time the old doctor said that although he was not worried about his life, he was weak and had to be slowly raised with supplements.
It's not his delusion now, the residual poison on his body is all clear, and he can go up the mountain to hunt at any time as long as he wants.
When you meet a tiger or a black bear, you also have a few chances of winning.
The little daughter-in-law slowly tasted the chicken soup, but her mind had drifted to her own system.
The points are still three hundred, but Mai Lisu has reached thirty-five. The spiritual spring was used by her to add it to the chicken soup, just to nourish Chen's saddle body.
She asked customer service if she could exchange Mi Lisu for points, and the answer was no.
The points can't be exchanged, and the red envelopes are only given to some broken copper and iron.
Now we can only hope that Mai Lisu can play more surplus value in Jishitang.
She was in a trance, and her heart suddenly panicked, and the breath in her nose froze.
What's going on?
Ji Xiang looked up to look at Chen Jiean, but his heart hadn't settled down, and his right eyelid jumped several times.
Right eyelid jump!
A woman's sixth sense is usually accurate, and sure enough, in less than a moment, two uninvited guests came to the door.
"Oh, what a good thing to eat, why don't you call us folks and neighbors."
The voice was so familiar that Ji Xiang couldn't ignore it.
That's the original owner's Niang Lin clan and the grandmother grandson clan.
Now you know, why are you panicking?
The news that the Chen family was going to build a house spread quickly, and there was no reason why the Lin family didn't come to the door to fight the autumn breeze. She had already told the Wang family and discussed countermeasures for several days, but seeing that no one came there, she thought there was a special case.
Unexpectedly, it was a calm breath, and the house was halfway renovated.
The original grandmother Sun was wearing a blue cloth, and her head was combed with oil. Lin was smiling and carrying a basket in his hand.
Ji Xiang's eyes were sharp and he saw a lot of vegetables. All of them are common to farmers, but they are not new, and some of them look dead and wrinkled.
"Unsaddle, you're boring, you don't have enough manpower to find any outsiders for us. The second daughter-in-law, quickly put the family's dishes on the table for the in-laws, and we also quickly ate two bites to help do things. ”
The Sun family is higher than the Lin family, he doesn't hit the smiling face when he reaches out, and he speaks with a kind atmosphere.
Wang's face was unhappy, especially Aunt Lian next to her, Sun almost pointed at her and scolded her when she said this.
As for Lin, after her mother-in-law spoke, she couldn't wait to go to the stove. The people around the outer table are all men, and she is not a woman who is greedy for words. But Chen Jie'an and Orchid ate good things inside, and the fragrance of chicken soup had already drilled into her nose.
When the time comes, eat a few bowls, and then bring some back for Ming'er to eat.
"White wolf with empty gloves."
Ji Xiang muttered quietly, just that basket of vegetables, I felt embarrassed to eat for the pigs. I still want to exchange it for meat, dream.
When the Lin family was about to be seated, the chicken soup had already been taken away and placed on the small stove.
"You little slut, didn't you see your mother hungry."
Lin thought that Ji Xiang would be afraid, but he didn't expect this girl to roll her eyes and look at her without half feelings.
"This chicken soup is for my husband to replenish his body, and I want to eat it and stew it myself."
Lin glanced at Chen Jie'an, the man's face was also a little bad, she thought about it, she was here to ask for silver. In order to rub a meal, it will not work to make the Wang family angry.
Her eyes quickly saw the pot with the aroma of meat wafting there, and she couldn't help but swallow.
"Xiang'er, your grandmother and I came over in a hurry, and we didn't eat, so we hurriedly brought out a bowl of meat for us to eat."
After saying this, Sun came over. She spoke differently, looking at Ji Xiang's red eyes first, expressing her thoughts. pulled Chen Xie an an, a little emotion, and said a lot of good things about the original owner.
Still confused, the little old lady hesitated to speak.
"Unsaddle, I think it will take you a lot of time to get up and down the house. It's better to let Cousin Xiang'er come over to help, that even the reputation of a widow is not good, and the kitchen matter might as well be handed over to me and my second daughter-in-law. ”
Scold.
The more Ji Xiang listened, the colder his heart became, he glanced at Chen Jie'an, and was relieved to see that he was indifferent. It is said that the mouth is honey belly sword, I am afraid that Chen Jie'an will not understand, and in order to protect his face, he has a good face for these superlatives.
She hugged her chest, wanting to see what else Sun could say.
The Wang family arranged things and walked over just in time to hear Sun talking about wages.
"Give a hundred wen a day, and eat meat every meal." Ji Xiang's cousin is a well-known loafer in the village, not to mention doing work, he can't even wait to be served.
It's still a hundred wen, and even on Saturday and Sunday, it's only eighty wen, which is still a good craft.
Phew, I've never seen such a shameless one.
