Volume 1 Chapter 55 Preparing to Build a House
Not long after Su Cheng left, Fourth Master Qiao also arrived, before leaving, Qiao Xi asked him to come to the house to look for her after sending his younger brother back, and Fourth Master Qiao didn't ask anything, and responded directly.
"Girl, you have something you can tell us to do." Furong looked at Qiao Xi and said this.
"You can't do that." How can they build a house?
"Girl, why don't you tell us we can't do it?" Rose has a more aggressive temperament and speaks more straightly, just like now.
"Can you build a house?" Qiao Xi looked at Rose and smiled.
"Ah......" Rose asked directly and was stupid, she didn't expect that what the girl said was about the house, this ...... They didn't seem to be able to, and looked away in embarrassment.
"Girl, you want to build a house?" This time it was Fleur who spoke up. "Is it because we're here?" She knew a little about the situation in the girl's house, and when she first came to see such a high courtyard wall, she once thought that she had gone to the wrong place, and when she turned over the courtyard wall and saw the original house, she knew that she had not gone wrong, probably because she had made money to build the courtyard wall, and if she wanted to build a house, it was probably not enough money.
This time the girl proposed to build a house, and she had to think about it, if it was because of them, how could they go so badly.
"Yes and no." The construction of the house has always been in the plan, but it is not so fast, and now that there are five more of them, the construction of the house has been advanced, and it has no impact on her plan.
"What do you say, girl?"
"I have a plan to build a house for a long time, but it is not so early, you must have a place to live when you come, it doesn't matter if you squeeze it casually for a few days, everyone has a bad rest after a long time." If you don't rest well, you won't have energy, and if you don't have energy, any negative emotions will follow.
"Girl, will that disturb your plans?" She always knew that she was powerful, but she didn't expect that even these already had a plan, and it would not be an exaggeration to say that she was evil.
"It won't have much impact, but I'm going to grieve you for a while." Even the next person has human rights, she is a native of here, who let her be a fetus, but the mark in the soul is indelible, you can't learn to come here to beat and scold the slaves at will, accept them, then treat them well!
"Don't be wronged, if the girl has something, you can tell me." After Fleur finished speaking, the other four nodded vigorously in agreement.
"Don't worry, none of you can escape." With people in her hands, of course she will know how to make good use of them, and everyone will not be idle.
"Listen to the girl."
"Well, I'll go over there and have a look." Since you have decided to build a house, you can build the vacant space in front of you first, and wait until all those vegetables and watermelons are lost, and then build the follow-up house.
However, the land in her hand is relatively small, and it seems that after asking Grandpa Lin, she will go to Lizheng to buy more land. The previous three acres, there were at least ten acres of wasteland on its side, so she simply bought them together, and she was not worried about not being able to grow vegetables at all.
Qiao Xi walked and stopped, looked at this and that, and his brain was running quickly, calculating all the houses that could be built.
After reading it, he briefly explained a few words to Flax, then went back to the house, sat down at the desk by the window, spread out a piece of paper, dipped the brush in ink, and began to write and draw on the paper.
Fleur and the others tacitly didn't bother her.
About an hour later, I remembered the knock on the door, put down the pen in my hand, and got up to open the door.
"Girl, is someone looking for you?" Fleur said as she stood in the doorway.
When Furong went to open the door just now, he scared Qiao Lin Qiao Siye enough, he didn't enter Qiao's house when he came to pick up Qiao Bai, he didn't know that there were more people in their family, seeing the people who came to open the door, Qiao Lin thought that he was in the wrong place, and after asking, he learned that they were all members of Qiao's family, and the whole person was invited into Qiao's house in a daze.
"Well, let's go." She's waiting for Grandpa Lin.
Not long after Qiao Lin sat down, someone poured him a cup of tea, he took it tremblingly, drank absentmindedly, and when he saw Qiao Xi coming in, he immediately put his eyes on her.
Qiao Xi greeted with a smile, "Grandpa Lin is here." ”
"Uh-huh." Qiao Lin nodded heavily.
Qiao Xi walked in and found a seat to sit down, and asked straight to the point: "Grandpa Lin, I want to ask you, who has the best house built here, and whose carpenter craftsmanship is good?" She doesn't know if there are any house builders in Qiaojia Village or near here, building a house is not as good as building a courtyard wall, and the courtyard wall can also be done by someone who is familiar with it, but the house is different, and the building depends on the overall pattern.
Of course, she wants to add furniture to the house, she wants the house and the furniture to be carried out at the same time, the house is built, the furniture is almost good, and when the time comes, the furniture can be moved in, and they can live in the new house as soon as possible, the best of both worlds.
Qiao Lin listened to Qiao Xi's question, and the whole person was stunned for a moment, and only reacted after a while, "Miss Xi, are you going to build a house?" "It's too fast, it's only been a long time since the courtyard wall was built, and the house is about to be built.
"Yes, my house is not enough to live in now, so I simply built a house. Grandpa Lin, do you know anything like this? ”
"Yes, your grandma Lin's nephew Ding Fugui is a builder, and his craftsmanship is the best in these ten miles and eight villages, and if you are a carpenter, Ding Xing, who is in the same village as him, has good craftsmanship."
Hearing this, Qiao Xi raised her eyebrows, "Grandpa Lin, see if you can let Grandma Lin accompany me on a trip." ”
"Yes, yes, when do you want to go?" How can he not be willing to introduce work to his daughter-in-law's mother's family, and it is too late for his daughter-in-law to be happy.
"If it's convenient for Grandma Lin, it's best this afternoon." Of course, the sooner the better, if she can go this afternoon, she can't go to buy the land herself, and let Fleur run for her then.
"Hey, I'll go back and talk to the old woman. I'll tell you later. ”
"Grandpa Lin doesn't need you to run again, I'll let Furong accompany you, if you can't do it today, you can do it tomorrow." Grandpa Lin is old, and it is impossible for him to run back and forth like this.
"Yes, yes, let's go now." Fleur followed Qiao Lin to his house, and Qiao Lin went back to tell Ding about it, and Ding responded without saying a word.
Fleur got the exact news, left Qiao Lin's house, and told Qiao Xi the news.
"Furong, please go to Lizheng's house in the afternoon, help me buy some wasteland again, just tell Lizheng that I bought three acres of wasteland before, buy as many as you want, here are twenty taels, and after buying the land, give Li Zheng one or two more, he knows what it means." Qiao Xi was convinced by the Qiao Lin family, so he handed over the purchase of wasteland to Furong and explained some things to her.
"It's girl, I'll definitely help you do it." He took the money and said seriously.
"I believe in you."
"Lily, you'll take us in a carriage later."
"Yes, girl."
After lunch, Qiao Xi and Furong went their separate ways.
Qiao Xi took the Ding family into the carriage and headed towards Yehe Village.
In Yehe Village, Ding Dazhuang was working in the field with his two sons, sweating, he heard his daughter's voice from a distance, raised his head and saw that it was really his daughter, who was trotting towards them in a hurry, shouting while running, "Dad, big brother, hurry home, my aunt is here, and there are guests at home." ”
"Xiaofang, slow down, what are you talking about, Dad didn't hear clearly." Probably a little far away, Ding Dazhuang didn't really hear it.
"Dad, big brother, don't work yet, go home, there are guests coming." Ding Fang finally came to the edge of his own ridge and gasped.
As soon as Ding Dazhuang heard that there were guests at home, he immediately looked at the eldest son, and the eldest son was capable of the family, but good things are not often there, since the snow disaster this year, the eldest son has not received a job so far, no matter what, he always has to go back to see, "Let's go back." ”
"Dad, hurry up, I'll go first, I'm going to find Uncle Ding." Ding Fang rested for a while, and then ran towards Ding Xing's field, ignoring the calls of her father and eldest brother behind.
The father and son could only collect the farming tools and hurried home.
"Sister-in-law, don't be busy, you sit." Jordin took Yuan's hand and asked her to sit down and speak.
"That's okay, Ah Chun, are you going to see if their father and son have come back?" Yuan looked up at his eldest daughter-in-law and asked.
"Got it, mother." Luo Chun nodded, walked out of the hall and went to look outside the door.
In a short time, the father and son will arrive at home.
"Dad, go in quickly, my mother is in the house to talk to my aunt and guests." Luo Chun saw that the father and son had returned, and immediately urged them to hurry into the house.
"Big brother." Although Ding has been chatting with his sister-in-law, his eyes will look towards the door from time to time, and he will immediately greet his eldest brother and nephews when he sees them.
"Xiao Ran, who is this?" said hello to his sister, looked at Qiao Xi who was sitting in the seat, and asked.
"Big brother, her name is Qiao Xi, her family wants to build a house, so she didn't want to think about Da Zhuang's craftsmanship, so she brought it over." Ding smiled and introduced Qiao Xi to his eldest brother Ding Dazhuang, and then looked at his nephew Ding Fugui.
"This ......" Ding Dazhuang looked at Qiao Xi, how could a girl be the master, therefore, he didn't believe that this girl could at all, and he didn't agree with his sister for bringing people, looked at Ding Xiaoran and said, "Xiaoran, can't you be an adult?" ”
"Uncle Ding, there are only a few children in my family, I can call the shots." Qiao Xi had already seen the distrust in Ding Dazhuang's eyes, and he couldn't blame him, anyone who saw a child would think like this, and she was a girl, it was even easier for people to distrust, in feudal society, male power was supreme, and male superiority and inferiority had long been ingrained, and it would not be able to shake it for a while.
The feudal society has too many constraints on women, and few women dare to resist, even in ordinary people's homes!
