"The rent of wasteland is not expensive, ten yuan a year for an acre of land, but the price will be changed every five years, and there is no guarantee that it will be this price."

"It's already good to adjust once every five years, and I'll come back to you tomorrow afternoon." Mu Xiu breathed a sigh of relief when he heard the price.

"Okay." Chen Xiangyang responded in one gulp.

When Mu Xiu returned home, Chen Xuhui was carrying water and pouring water into the water tank, and Mu Xiaocao was cleaning up manure in the shed.

Mu Shui was checking how the bricks were dry, and when he saw Mu Xiu coming over, Mu Shui asked: "Xiu, you're back, half of this brick is already usable, look at when you start to build it." ”

"Then today, or you'll be busy in a few days." Mu Xiu couldn't stand the days when he could only make a basin in the kitchen to take a bath, and seeing that the weather was getting hotter and hotter, he got the bathroom out early, which was a big deal.

Nowadays, the toilet and the pigsty in the yard are next to each other, and all the feces are dropped in the septic tank behind to make fertilizer...... Mu Xiu felt unbearable to look at it just by thinking about it......

Where are the baths built? Mu Xiuxuan's location is the south side of the kitchen, where there is a sewage ditch, on weekdays, the water in the kitchen is also poured into the sewage ditch and flows outside, and the south side of Mu Shui's house is a large pit bush and a small piece of trees, and the sewage will eventually flow there, just to irrigate the bush.

The main bathroom is close to the kitchen, so it is convenient to boil hot water.

The family said to do it, the wood water set the location, and Chen Xuhui began to dig the soil to lay the foundation, because the bathroom is not big, the foundation was dug in the afternoon, dug out a rectangular word back, the middle of the word to retain the solid soil, four sides of the hollow, after digging, Mu Xiu poured all the evenly mixed cement into it, filled the empty position with mixed cement, and then waited for the cement to dry, and the soil in the middle was firmly glued together, and then began to use bricks to cover the room on the ground.

The cement is also consumed quickly, but fortunately, except for Mu Xiu, no one knows how much it is used, after all, it is not easy to distinguish between the mixed soil, and Mu Xiu secretly took out five bags and put them under the eaves.

It was getting dark, and the toilet could only wait for tomorrow to clean up, Zhou Shuilian cooked the meal, everyone was tired, and after eating, they washed up and fell asleep.

The next morning, Mu Shui and Chen Xuhui got up, and when Mu Xiu woke up, the two had already dug the foundation around the toilet, but the difference was that the side leading to the septic tank was not dug up, and it was still left as it was.

Mu Xiu hurriedly began to mix the cement, and everyone poured the cement into the ditch on three sides and waited for it to dry.

Mu Xiu's plan is that the toilet can't change the location, so the toilet door and the pigsty door are opened on opposite sides, so that they still share a septic tank, and there will be no smell on both sides, and the floor of the toilet is paved, leaving the position of the two squatting pits, and sealing the big mouth at the back, so that it looks clean and beautiful, and there is no need to worry about falling.

After finishing these, it was already noon, Mu Shui and Chen Xuhui began to chop firewood, Mu Xiu stepped forward and said to Mu Shui: "Dad, now that spring ploughing has passed most of the time, I went to the village party secretary yesterday and told him that our family is going to open up wasteland, and the village party secretary went to the county seat to go through the formalities today." ”

"Really? That's great, our family's acre of land, a few days of hard work to pick up, watching other people's work in the field in full swing, I am really anxious, just have land to plant. Hearing this, Mu Shui rubbed his hands excitedly.

"I directly asked for fifteen acres of land, our family planted twelve acres, and Brother Chen planted three acres." Mu Xiu looked at Chen Xuhui and said.

Chen Xuhui raised his head in disbelief, he originally heard that Mu Xiu's family had fifteen acres of more land to plant, his heart was a little envious, he also wanted to grow a few acres of land, after all, crops and grain can be seen with the naked eye, and the least deceiving people will be, as long as you are diligent, there will be a harvest.

Mu Xiu's words made him really overjoyed, and he stammered a little and said, "It's really ...... Are you sure? ”

"Of course it's true, let's work together to open up the wasteland together!" Mu Xiu said with a smile.

"Xiu, where is that place?" Mu Shui asked.

"In the afternoon, I will go to the village party secretary, sign the contract first, and then take you to see the land." Mu Xiu replied.

"What are you guys talking about, so happy, hurry up and wash your hands and eat." Zhou Shuilian came out of the kitchen with rice, saw the smiles on the faces of Mu Shui and the others, and asked curiously.

"Let's go, talk while eating." Mu Shui and Zhou Shuilian entered the hall, and Chen Xuhui and Mu Xiu went to the kitchen to serve food.

"Thank you." Chen Xuhui said softly to Mu Xiu.

"It's more important to live well and be happy than anything else." Mu Xiu really felt that Chen Xuhui was not easy, but since the last time his father came to make trouble, Chen Xuhui has become more and more silent, and Mu Xiu can't enlighten him, so he can only hope that time can take away his trauma.

"Yes." Chen Xuhui nodded heavily.

After eating, Mu Xiu was urged more than a dozen times before she reluctantly went to the village party secretary's house, she was going to go later, but everyone in the family, including Chen Xuhui, couldn't wait......

"Uncle Chen, you don't have a lunch break." Mu Xiu looked at Chen Xiangyang, who was dusty, and said hello.

"You girl, come here a little bit, I've only been in the door for a while, and you're here." Chen Xiangyang said jokingly.

"It's really a coincidence...... "If it weren't for the family urging her... It wouldn't be such a coincidence, would it.

"Here, here's your paperwork, take a look." Chen Xiangyang took out a document from the cloth bag he was carrying and handed it to Mu Xiu.

Mu Xiu got his hand, read it, and after confirming that it was correct, he took out the one hundred and fifty yuan that had been prepared from his pocket and handed it to Chen Xiangyang. "Uncle Chen, the rent for five years is paid once a year, you count."

"You girl is careful, there is nothing wrong with you." Chen Xiangyang took the money, put it in his bag, and sighed: "Our village still has a large population, little land, and is too poor. ”

"Uncle Chen, you mentioned that you wanted to buy a tractor last year, how can you ......" Mu Xiu asked curiously, last year Chen Xiangyang mobilized the whole village and proposed to buy a tractor for the village, but he hasn't bought it yet.

"This tractor is too expensive, I originally wanted to buy a Dongfanghong-75 tractor, but the new 28 tractor is more suitable for the land of our village, but it costs more than 10,000 yuan!" Chen Xiangyang was a little embarrassed.

"Mu Xiu, I know you have the ability, for most of the past six months, you have bought and rented land, and most people in the village have not made as much money as you as a girl, can you give me an idea?"
