Obviously, Du Xuze can't be measured by the standards of ordinary people. The deposit of 5,005 is more than 3,000, and there are 2,500, judging from the level of people's wages and the strong purchasing power of paper money in this era, 2,500 is better than 2.5 million in 2018.

If there were no accidents, she would have lived here for a long time, living in this house. So she wants to make herself more comfortable within the scope of the conditions.

From small needlework, matches, soap, chopsticks, basins, and kettles to large bedding and sewing machines, they need to buy a lot of things. She listed them one by one and added them later.

She is not satisfied with the ready-to-wear clothes sold in the mall, so she might as well buy needlework, cloth, cotton and sewing machines to make them herself, which not only saves money, but more importantly, looks good.

Fifteen minutes, she only made a general list, washed her hands and removed the mask, patted the essence until it was absorbed, and applied skin care products, and the whole person was more energetic. She happened to hear Du Xuze coming back to talk to Du Xuqing, and hurriedly put her things back into the temporary storage space of the system.

"I beat the fritters and bean juice, the authentic taste of Kyoto, you like it or not," Du Xuze carried ten fritters and a large tea jar of bean juice into the house.

The crispy aroma of the fritters and the mellow aroma of the beans diffused throughout the room, Zuo Ranjia sat on the edge of the bed, pinched a fritter with paper and clicked and bite, crispy and firm and not greasy, it was indeed good. She took another sip of the sweetened bean juice, and without the bitter smell of the beans, she couldn't help but sigh softly when she was so sweet and satisfying.

"Later, the guys will bring someone over to help us repair the yard, do you have any ideas?" Du Xuze took a big bite of the fritters and asked her vaguely.

"What are you going to do?" Zuo Ranjia didn't have a clue, so let's listen to how he designed it first, and then add it myself.

"You also looked at the front and back of our house yesterday, and there is a passage leading to the backyard behind the east house, and I thought about sealing the doors of the east house and the hall house, and reopening the door for them to open on the east side, and leave the windows for light. Plug up the wall from the kitchen, completely separate it from our yard, and then open a gate in the backyard. Du Xuze gestured to Zuo Ranjia as he spoke, and said apologetically:

"We have one less hall than the third uncle and three aunts, you won't blame me for making my own decisions, right?"

Zuo Ranjia smiled and shook her head: "There are many of them, and the house is not enough, can the third aunt be willing?" Besides, grandpa still lives with them. And our yard is big, we can build two more rooms in the south of the east and west houses, and we can also build a house with pomegranate trees and jujube trees in the yard, and some land can be opened under the trees, and some onions, garlic, coriander, and peppers can be planted.

If you can find good vines, there is also a place to cool down in the summer. ”

Hearing her say this, Du Xuze nodded, "Don't say it, there are a lot of benefits to a big yard." ”

The fritters were too big and sincere, she ate two and was full, drank half a jar of bean juice, wiped her mouth and bent her eyebrows, and suddenly became interested: "Our house will definitely live for many years, Qiqi will have her own one after a few years, right?" Qingzi will be fourteen years old after the New Year, and he will marry a daughter-in-law very quickly. And," she said in a low voice, "and there will be new additions, and the three main houses are definitely not enough, so it is better to build them together now."

The utility room next to the West House is not big or small, and the building is also simple and cannot accommodate people, so it can be dismantled and built into two rooms with the ground next to it. Next to the east house, build a main house with a suite like our house.

The inverted seat is covered with four small rooms along the wall. One is used as a kitchen, one is used for bathing and laundry, one is a grocery store, and the other can be used as a toilet? ”

Du Xuze raised his eyebrows, in the countryside, every household has a large yard and has a simple toilet. But in the city, people's housing is already tight, except for those who live in buildings, almost every household has to queue up to go to the public toilet. "Okay, yes, but if you have a toilet, the smell is more rushing, if you don't mind, let's build one."

Zuo Ranjia's eyes lit up when she heard this, and she hurriedly said: "As long as the toilet is built reasonably, and it is cleaned diligently on weekdays, there is no smell at all." She pulled open the drawer, took out the pen and paper she had just used, and wrote and drew on it.

"Our toilet and kitchen are built on both ends of the door wall, and the smell will not be stringed. Our neighbor doesn't have a house here, so let's build a toilet against this wall. ”

Du Xuze hummed, squinted his eyes slightly and thought for a while, "We are opposite the JZ compound, where every household has a toilet, I will inquire where their pipes go, it is best to go down." If not, let's just install a flush toilet, dig a pit outside the house, and put a cement slab on top. Anyway, there are people from various brigades in the countryside who come to pull fertilizer every day, let's sign up and let them stop by every day when they leave. ”

Zuo Ranjia nodded again and again, it was the best to be able to use the flush toilet.

"Is Brother Ze at home?" A loud voice came from outside the house.

Du Xuze looked out the window with a smile and said to Zuo Ranjia: "Bozi, they are here, you sit in the house first, and when the godmother and them come, you will accompany and talk." At noon, we will go to the restaurant to eat, and after the kitchen is covered, we will cook the warm pot rice. As he spoke, he was about to go out.

Zuo Ranjia grabbed him, met his deep black eyes, and his little face turned red again, "Later, you will build a stove in the utility room first, and let's cook and eat tomorrow, not to mention the cost of going out to eat every day, and the food stamps are like running water." ”

"How can a light base stove work, the house is not ventilated and there is no blower! If I want to say that the kitchen should be built according to the state-run hotel, we will use gas and exhaust fans. It's not for you to make money moldy, I don't want you to suffer," After saying this, Du Xuze took the opportunity to kiss her cheek and went out with a smoke.

Zuo Ranjia covered her left cheek and pursed her lips and smiled. She continued to sit at the table, looking out the window at the growing number of people, bowing her head to write and draw on the stationery.

Du Xuze has a wide range of connections, and as soon as he greeted him, Pang Jingbo, Feng Kunliang, and Duan Wenjian led three groups of people to wait for the dispatch. Liang Huanran had to prepare for the Spring Festival competition in the army and couldn't leave, while Lu Kangyong went to the township for a meeting and couldn't come back for a while. But Liang's mother, Lu's mother, and Duan's mother had already learned that the young couple had received the certificate, and they began to open up, saying that they were allowed to do a beautiful and lively job for their godson.

Bricks, cement, sand, and stones were pulled to the mouth of the alley by a tractor, and the men carried them little by little in sturdy baskets, as well as window edges, door frames, doors, and other objects.

The people who came were all sincere and sincere people, and they didn't say much, but when they understood what Du Xuze meant, everyone took off their coats and rolled up their sleeves to do it. The sledgehammer hammered at the wall on the east side of the east house, and knocked it on the hearts of the people in the third room.

Meng Guixiang just looked at a young man who was tall and tall, and was stunned, and only howled: "Light, don't smash it!" ”

"Don't worry, auntie, my father took me to do the Z Mansion building, and I can get it done for you in an hour!" A young man grinned innocently, took two sips on his hand, and continued to shout slogans to the wall.

Du Xuze was gesturing with an experienced middle-aged man in the yard, thinking about where to build the house, what style of kitchen and what style of toilet was.

The man smoked a cigarette and waved his hand: "Comrade Du, it is fast to build a house, but it takes time to make a foundation. If you want me to say that the spring cover is the best!

The weather was neither hot nor cold, and there was not much rain. ”

Du Xuze nodded, "It's okay, uncle, you have to think about it for me, don't take on a big project and forget my little job." ”

The man rubbed his hands and smiled, "How can it, Uncle will come to build you a house in April of the solar calendar next year." ”

Du Xuze should come down, and he happened to be thinking about the kitchen and toilet. This year, let's live alive, and when the spring is built, I will make a kang or something in each house, and it is not safe to burn the stove in the province, and it is not cold and tight, anyway, it is the same to burn coal.

When he arrived at the house, he was afraid that Zuo Ranjia would be upset and unhappy, so he explained to her in detail: "Daughter-in-law, the New Year is coming soon, and everyone's minds are not here." Let's take a good count, walk around and look at other people's kitchens and toilets, come up with a detailed plan, and start construction at the beginning of spring, which is much better than the rough work done in a hurry now. What do you think? ”

Zuo Ranjia knew that she was a little anxious, she smiled and said, "Yes, it's not in a hurry anyway, but the utility room has to be cleaned up." ”

"Of course," Du Xuze secretly breathed a sigh of relief, his daughter-in-law was too easy to talk to, but he felt a little uncomfortable in his heart, and always felt that she was talking politely to himself. "Daughter-in-law, do you know how to cook?" He hesitated, asked, and when he asked, he wanted to sew his mouth shut.

"Of course it will," Zuo Ranjia nodded, her eyebrows and eyes were bent with an unprecedented light, and her half-joking tone matched the appearance of a seventeen-year-old, she looked a little playful: "Brother Xu Ze, you can make a lot of money if you marry me, I not only cook deliciously, but also do needlework!" When I make a meal, you can taste it, and keep it if you don't want to eat out again. ”

Du Xuze was rare, if it weren't for the teasing glances of so many people outside the window from time to time, he would have to take her into his arms so rarely. "Okay, then I'm in for a treat."

He thought in his heart that she made pig food, as long as he smiled like a flower every day, he would not be willing to go out.

"I see that the utility room and the main room should be built together, when the kitchen is more than ten square meters, it is not small, but it only stacks sundries on weekdays, it is in disrepair and looks dilapidated, you can repair it well, even if we don't repair the kitchen in the future." She took out the paper and drew it again, "Let's build a platform like this half a person high, which is convenient for cooking, chopping and washing." ”

"Cheng, let me tell the masters, they are all experts." Du Xuze hummed, looked at her, reluctantly got out of the door, and was caught by a group of people outside the door and made fun of him.

Du Xuze was in a good mood, and they laughed, just hooked the corners of his lips and said with a ruffian smile: "Brother has not given you any less money, and when you wait for the twenty-first day of the lunar month, you are going to bleed profusely, laugh as much as you like now, brother will sit and wait to collect the money." ”

His words choked everyone up, and they all laughed and scolded back.
