Chapter Seventy-Nine: A New Home (2)
Updated: 2013-06-25
It turned out that when he designed and built the courtyard, Fang Yuan had deliberately left this locust tree, after all, Lu Mengjian's first pot of gold came from this old locust tree, and Fang Yuan also knew that this tree had extraordinary value to Lu Mengjian, so he spared no expense to design the shape of the courtyard, just to preserve the locust tree.
There were a few weeds growing here and there in the clearing, the soil under the sun was very fresh, it was obviously just reclaimed not long ago, and before that, this was just a wasteland that no one cared for, even if Lu Mengjian lived here, he almost didn't pay attention to this clearing, he didn't expect Fang Yuan to buy this piece directly, it can be described as well-intentioned.
Just when the three of them looked around, the resting workers began to work again, and the foreman saw that there was a stranger, so he strode closer, "Hey, who are you, now we are going to start working, it's not safe here, or you should go out first." ”
Li Dazhuang turned around and saw that this big man was very angry, so he said with a smile on his face: "This house is really magnificent, the person who designed this house must be a talented person, right?" ”
"That's not it, this is a special 'gate' designed by a famous craftsman in the city, according to the owner's family, the more spacious the yard, the better, so he also designed this large courtyard separately," the big man thought that this house was built by his own hands, and his eyebrows flew and danced as he spoke, as if he had forgotten the original intention of 'talking' with these people.
The craftsman responsible for installing the 'door' window waited for a long time and did not see the shadow of the foreman, so he sent someone to ask the foreman about the choice of the 'door' window, but it happened that the person saw Li Dazhuang and happily stepped forward, and talked affectionately, the person who came was the old Zhao Tou of Shita Village, and saw that Li Dazhuang's family, who had not 'appeared' for a long time, returned to Shita Village, and was happy for a while regardless of the foreman's presence and happily came up.
"Brother Li, where have you been making a fortune recently, you have even moved your home, how long will you stay when you come back this time, our brothers have to talk about it well," Lao Zhao Tou originally had a lot of 'friendship' with Li Dazhuang, and his life was inevitably much colder since Li Dazhuang left, so he was very happy to see Li Dazhuang.
"In a few days, my brother will be able to come back to drink with my eldest brother, and I won't leave in the future," Li Dazhuang laughed, "We'll move back in a few days, and there will be time in the future." ”
"Didn't you get a job out there, why did you suddenly move back in?" Lao Zhao Tou looked at the two 'women' beside Li Dazhuang suspiciously, Zhong'er and his mother were five or six years younger than before leaving, and although the young 'girl' beside her was silent, but the eyebrows were 'revealed' a trace of majestic momentum, and then after a closer look, I found that it was Lin Niangzi who had ended up in the village for a period of time, and in order to find this 'girl', almost the whole village was used, so Lao Zhao Tou was very impressed by this 'girl'.
"It's not a secret, now Zhong'er and his mother are working at Lin Gongzi's house, and Lin Gongzi will move to the village in a few days, so we are ready to move back again," Li Dazhuang said, causing Lao Zhao to frown again and again. Lu Mengjian didn't want to reveal the news that 'Lu' was going to move back to Shita Village early, but since Li Dazhuang had already said it, it was inconvenient to hide it anymore, so he had to nod and acquiesce.
"Lin Gongzi, but Lin Gongzi who lived in this abandoned hospital at the beginning? Unexpectedly, he was really the son of a rich family, and the little guy looked at him as a rich and noble man, "Lao Zhao Tou usually looks honest and 'handsome', but today I saw Lin Niangzi present, and I saw that Lin Gongzi is not what it used to be, so he also said a few more good words, Lu Mengjian was just distracted, and his mind was thinking about other things, so he didn't really hear what Lao Zhao Tou said, but he didn't really hear what Lao Zhao Tou said, but he didn't say anything and smiled slightly.
The foreman saw that several people were old acquaintances, so he laughed loudly twice, and then walked to the courtyard with two words.
Lao Zhao Tou got the foreman's permission, so he led Li Dazhuang and the three of them to take a look in the courtyard at will, although Lu Mengjian and others had seen the layout of the house, they still felt very fresh when they looked at it again, especially the large courtyard that was specially separated, and it was very convenient to plant 'flowers' and raise seedlings in the future.
After a while, Lao Zhao Tou sent Li Dazhuang and others out of the 'door', still unable to hide the enthusiasm in his eyes, "Brother Li, now that the construction has started, it is inconvenient for me to continue to accompany you, and it is really dangerous inside, if you accidentally fall a brick from the roof, it will be terrible, so I have to grieve you first, but this house will be completed in a few days, and when Lin Niangzi moves in, she will naturally do whatever she wants." ”
Everyone laughed when he said this, Lu Mengjian had already seen the changes in the house, and he had no intention of lingering more, so after generously bowing and thanking him, he 'wanted' to leave with Li Dazhuang's husband and 'wife'.
On the left side of the "door" entrance is piled up a large area of sand and lime for construction, because it does not require too much skill work, so most of the small workers here are the laborers of the village, only need to help worry about some fine sand and good mud to do some chores, just recently only the installation of "doors" and windows and the like, so most of the small workers have returned home, today only the west of the village Liu Laoshi is here.
Liu Laoshi has a short stature, but he is born 'fine' and strong, and his work is extremely quick, but after half a day's effort, he has sifted out the pile of sand at the entrance of the 'door', mixed the plaster, and is now standing aside talking to the mother-in-law.
When I got closer, I realized that it was Liu Laoshi's 'female', and Li Qi's face flashed with an uncertain 'color', but it was already in front of him, so it was naturally inconvenient to hide anymore, so he had to say hello hard. If Liu Laoshi can be called one of the best honest people in the village, but his mother-in-law is not a fuel-efficient lamp, but whenever something happens, he is afraid that the world will not be 'chaotic'. When she married into Shita Village, the villagers saw that she looked simple, and Liu Laoshi was a natural pair, but after a long time, more and more people suffered under her hands, coupled with the experience of scolding the street several times, the villagers saw her and hid aside to avoid right and wrong.
Li Qi's family has long heard of this 'woman', and rarely goes to the west of the village, but today he met her, thinking of the words of the people in the village, his eyes were inevitably a little evasive.
But it also happens that Liu Qi's family still has some relationship with Li Qi's family, they are originally from the same village, although they are not familiar with each other when they are not out of the cabinet, they also have some 'friendship', and they all married to Shita Village after becoming a family, so they are not strangers to the roots. Liu Qi's family was bored at home, so he went out to see if his man was working hard, and by the way, he also had the intention of snooping, who knew that he had just arrived here and met Li Dazhuang's 'woman', and he was accompanied by a young 'woman' with a beautiful appearance, so he couldn't help muttering in his heart, and seeing that Li Qi's face had the intention of dodging, it was inevitable to remember the scene when her in-law's family scolded in the village that day, so she pursed her lips and laughed.
"Yo, isn't this the eldest sister, we are really fateful, we are all married to this village, but the two families are too far away, and they can't move around from time to time," Liu Qishi was talking to his own man, but suddenly looked up and turned to Li Qi, Liu Laoshi shoveled a shovel of plaster, and was about to load it into the basket, when he heard Liu Qi's words, he hurriedly took back the shovel and turned his head to look.
"Heh, it's all from the same village, I don't look up on weekdays, sister, you'll see the outside," Li Qi squeezed out a smile, perfunctory, Lu Mengjian only regarded the two as old acquaintances, so he didn't care, just looked at the 'woman' in front of him a few times, at a glance it was just an ordinary village 'woman' appearance, but when he looked at it again, he felt that the person's eyes seemed to be a little cunning, but the man next to her was straightforward, and he was a little similar to Wu Dalang.
"Where is the sister outside, but the eldest sister moved out of the village, the younger sister didn't know until a few days ago, and I was still thinking about how the eldest sister was doing well in the village, how could she suddenly say that she would move away, but unfortunately the eldest sister didn't know when she would come back, but it happened that she met the eldest sister today," Liu Qishi obviously did not intend to give up.
Although everyone knows that the mother-in-law of the Li family is tricky, and the Li Qi family is generous, which is unnatural at a glance, but even so, there are still people who deliberately misinterpret right and wrong, and even make a big fuss about this matter. Daughters, so they all have a deep misunderstanding of Li Qi's family.
When Li Qi heard this, although he was unhappy in his heart, he still had a smile on his face, "It's just a few days out, thank you sister for worrying." ”
"Hey, I remember that the eldest sister has been out for a long time, and the family is in charge, and it seems that Brother Li's family has moved away in the first two months, right?" Liu Qishi deliberately turned his head to ask Liu Laoshi, Liu Laoshi knew his mother-in-law's temperament, and he thought she was talking a lot, but he couldn't say it in his mouth, so he had to stop his work a little, intending to interrupt the words of this 'woman', but Liu Qishi refused to give her the opportunity to 'interject', and blindly said: "Eldest sister, how can you say that you are having a good time in our village, but let the people in the village think that what is wrong with your family, hey, those rumors and rumors make everyone feel cold, what kind of person the eldest sister is, we still don't know, those people are really... …”
"Sister, you think too much," Li Qishi suddenly raised his voice, and stopped Liu Qishi with a strong drink.
Li Qi wanted to explain a few words, but he heard Lu Mengjian next to him speak, "Heh, this aunt, you have to 'worry about' a lot of things, since you have such a relationship with Aunt Li, then I will tell you about it." There were some small things in our family that day, so we moved to Zhuangzi elsewhere to live for a while, and saw that Aunt Li was decent and hardworking, so I asked Aunt Li to help do some work, but the aunt you said that the 'messy' things are all made up by the villagers, as for Aunt Li's character, I believe that everyone in our village can see it. ”
"Naturally, we have always been very clear about the eldest sister's personality," Liu Qi's family wanted to see Li Qi's embarrassment, but unexpectedly killed a Cheng Cheng halfway to bite the gold, the girl was kind to an aunt, but this title is obviously much older than Li Qi's, although she values seniority, but she cares more about her age, so she is more and more unhappy in her heart.
