Chapter 60: Building a House

Hearing No. 1's words, Xia Yan lowered his head and pondered.

He was right, the secret weapon of the Tang Sect is unparalleled in the world, and it has the support of the Tang Sect, no matter what you do, it will be a great help.

Seeing that the tasks assigned to her by the system are becoming more and more perverted, maybe one day it will be beyond her ability.

It's time for her to find some help.

Anyway, I can't read that picture, so I can only keep it as a souvenir, so it's better to do it as a favor and send it out.

Thinking of this, she walked up to the old woman and promised, "As Master Tang said, this drawing is yours." ”

"Good! Good! The old woman was overjoyed, and took off the token hanging on her body and said: "This token is the symbol of the master of my Tang Sect. You hold it, whatever you are in

Whenever and wherever you meet my Tang Sect disciples, they will unconditionally carry out your orders. ”

The more Master Tang looked at Xia Yan, the more pleasing he became, and he even had the idea of accepting her as an apprentice.

But her body can't last long, and she can only spend the rest of her energy on revenge.

After Master Tang told Xia Yan some details about building the house, he asked her and No. 1 to go back first, and she would come to the door in person early tomorrow morning.

Coming out of the workshop, Xia Yan took a deep breath as if he had unloaded some heavy burden and asked, "Brother Liu, I suddenly remembered that she was the only one in Master Tang's entire workshop, is it difficult."

Did she build the house with her own hands? ”

"How could it be. When building the house, the master only occasionally looked at it, and the specific supervisors were still her three apprentices. But for some reason, her apprentices never came out of the workshop

Appear. ”

Suddenly, No. 1 remembered something, and added: "Let's hurry up and recruit some long-term workers, Master Tang's apprentices don't do much." ”

"Where are the long-term workers going?"

"There is a foreman in charge of recruiting people not far away, and I was the one I asked him to find last time." No. 1 seemed to recall something bad, and frowned, "But it's from Bianxi Village."

It was far away, the distance was inconvenient, and they were reluctant to go, so I struggled to convince them. ”

"Will they help me this time?" Looking at No. 1's expression, Xia Yan knew that he might have used a lot of strength.

"Do they dare to help!" Number One held the sword at his waist, "Unless you want me to teach them another lesson." ”

It turned out that this was the case, Xia Yan smiled secretly, it was conquered by force.

"Forget it, it's a bit of a hassle." She stopped No. 1, who wanted to go to the foreman, "Fertilizer and water don't flow into outsiders' fields, so let's go back to the village and ask the villagers for help." In the countryside, build a house

The children all help each other. ”

"Huh?" Number One was stunned, it turned out that there was still this way.

Although the Dark Guard has been trained in various ways, he has become close to omnipotent.

But after all, they have never lived in the countryside, and they still don't know a lot about the way the villagers do things.

If he had known that he could do this, he would not have had to work so hard.

In this way, in the running of Xiao Hei and Ma, Xia Yan and No. 1 returned home smoothly.

After a hurried dinner, she came to Lizheng's house in a hurry, wanting to discuss with him about building a house.

"Grandpa Lizheng, Yan'er has something to trouble you." As soon as he sat down, Xia Yan said sweetly.

Li Zheng seemed to like Xia Yan coquettishly, touched his beard and smiled: "What's the matter?" ”

"Yan'er's family wants to build a house, I want to ask Grandpa Lizheng to help me gather the villagers."

"Build a house this season?"

"yes." Xia Yan put on an aggrieved look, "Yan'er's house is leaking, it's too cold." ”

"Good!" Hearing Xia Yan's complaints, Li Zheng immediately agreed, "I'll take them tomorrow, one by one on this cold day grows fat at home, and it's time to pull them out to practice."

"Thank you, Grandpa Rizheng." Xia Yan smiled, "Yan'er also wants Grandpa Lizheng to help find some aunts who work neatly to help cook." ”

"Don't worry about their food, they have all received a great favor from your father, and it is right to help your family work." Li Zheng touched Xia Yan's head, "Yan'er still saves some silver."

Let's go buy some new clothes, it's almost the New Year, and you have to stock up on more New Year's goods. ”

"One yard is one yard, they are kind enough to help Yan'er, of course Yan'er has to pay for it." Xia Yan is not the kind of person who owes favors at will, if she is cheeky, she will not give it to others

A little compensation, even if the villagers are forced to help her work, but I can't tell you how many times I scolded her in my heart.

"The uncle and uncle who came to help with the work are 20 wen a day, and they are in charge of lunch and dinner. The aunts who came to help cook each of them were in charge of two meals for ten yuan a day. Speaking of Xia Yanshen

Mi smiled, "Yan'er promises that there will be at least one serving of meat and mysterious vegetables every day." ”

Meat! Vegetable? Rizheng was stunned.

I'm afraid this kid isn't stupid?

He still knows a little about the situation in her family, although life has been better than before, but it takes a lot of time to build a house. Even if you let ten people build it, too

It takes at least twenty days, and with the people who cook, two meals a day is a lot of money.

Not to mention the outrageously expensive vegetables.

After eating like this, even the richest people in the village will not be able to last for a few days.

"Don't talk nonsense, even if it's an ordinary meal, how can it be so wasteful." Li Zheng suddenly said with a straight face, he was afraid that Xia Yan would be confused for a while and be eaten and ruined.

But in Xia Yan's eyes, this is just an ordinary condition, and it is not wasted.

But he also knew that he couldn't twist Lizheng's temper, so he could only coquettishly say: "I know, Grandpa Lizheng, that's what the salary says, as for the meal, let's look at it according to the situation on the scene, okay."

Good? ”

"Hmm." Li Zheng, who thought that he had successfully persuaded Xia Yan, nodded with satisfaction, but he didn't know that he was the one who wanted to eat at Xia Yan's house the most in a few days.

The next day, Master Tang really arrived with her three apprentices as promised.

Looking at the simple thatched hut of Xia Yan's family, she finally knew why the master would be moved by compassion.

Because it's so broken.

Master Tang acted decisively quickly, and did not say much to Xia Yan, and after asking her about the location she wanted to build, he walked there with his apprentice.

Xia Yan arranged the location of the new house next to the courtyard where she lives now.

Even if she goes to a new house in the future, she doesn't plan to tear down this thatched house, after all, it is a memorial to the suffering of their family.

As soon as Master Tang was arranged, Li Zheng and Little Tiger Father came over with a group of people in the village.

"Yan'er, you are really out of sight. With your relationship with our Xiaohu, you can just talk to me if you have something, why do you have to trouble Lizheng? "As soon as I saw Xia Yan, the little tiger father was

He began to babble.

Xia Yan knew that Little Tiger Father was upright and had something to say, but at this time he was just complaining, so she didn't answer, just looked at them with a smile.

"Alright, you can bear it." Li Zheng pretended to be dissatisfied and looked at him, "Can't I help Yan'er?" Why, I can't think I'm an old man. ”

"It's not...... No. Little Tiger Dad hurriedly explained, "I'm kind, I'm afraid you'll be tired." ”

The eagerness of the little tiger father caused everyone to laugh.

Seeing that the atmosphere had become warm, Xia Yan was no longer polite to them, and pointed in the direction of Master Tang, asking Little Tiger Father to take someone to join them.

Looking at the pile of materials that were pulled by Master Tang together, Xia Yan couldn't help but sigh, Master Tang was really a person who believed in his word.

Although she promised Xia Yan that she would be responsible for all the materials, there were still many doorways in this material.

Even if she reduces costs with shoddy, Xia Yan, who doesn't know anything about building houses, won't find out.

But according to Xia Yan's observation, I'm afraid there is really no bargain in this.

If nothing else, those marble floors alone are worth a lot of money.

Just as she sighed, she saw Master Tang coming over with an embarrassed face.

"Miss Xia Yan, although the old body promised the girl to take care of all the materials, but many things on this drawing are unheard of by the old body, which is a little difficult to do." She pulled out the drawings

"For example, what is this thing called a radiator, and what is the glass?" ”

Xia Yan had long expected her to ask such a question, so he took her to his house unhurriedly and pointed to a bunch of things: "These are the ones you said, Master." It's the biggest one

It's the radiators, these translucent pieces are glass, and next to them are the toilets and showers. ”

Master Tang, who had long been familiar with the materials drawn on the drawings, was still shocked when he saw these things.

She touched this and that, and couldn't help but sigh: "I didn't expect these common materials to be able to make such exquisite things, the old body used to be a frog at the bottom of the well,

It was only today that I finally opened my eyes. ”

After ordering someone to move everything away, Master Tang seemed to be a few years younger, and his whole person became energetic, and said with a smile: "The old body has been in the rivers and lakes for decades, and I haven't met him for a long time

It's such a challenging thing. The girl can rest assured that the old body must have used all his life's learning to build this house for the girl. ”

Xia Yan didn't have the slightest doubt about her assurance, she bowed and said, "Thank you." ”

Seeing that it was noon, the little tiger lady who was in charge of cooking and a group of village women also came to Xia Yan's house.

When they saw the tall pile of cabbage and meat, they were all speechless in astonishment.

Xiaohu Niang couldn't help but look at Yan on the side and asked, "Sister-in-law Yan, is this today's ingredient?" ”

"Yes." Yan smiled gently, "Yan'er said that it was cold today, let's make pork stewed vermicelli and eat it." ”

After receiving an affirmative answer, Xiaohu Niang pointed to the cabbage that she had never seen before and asked, "Sister-in-law, what is this?" ”

"It's cabbage." Gan patiently explained, "It is a vegetable that can be grown even in winter. ”

It turns out that this is cabbage.

These days, the radish and cabbage of Ruyi Zhai are selling very well, and as long as you have been to the town in the nearby ten miles and eight townships, you have heard the names of these two vegetables.

Although the price is not cheap, the price of radish and cabbage is much cheaper than those expensive vegetables on weekdays, but it is slightly more expensive than meat, if ordinary people are

Grit your teeth, you can still eat a few meals.

But there are still some people who have only heard of it and have never seen it, and Little Tiger Lady is one of them.
