With cattle, Du Liansheng and Du Liancheng ploughed the land faster, planted soybeans in one day, carried water and watered the next day, and then carried a hoe to the mountains every day to see.

Originally, at this time, Du Liansheng would take over some carpenter work, and Du Liancheng was responsible for the situation in the rice fields and mountains.

But he said before that he wanted to warm up the house for Du Yun, and Du Maoxing took advantage of the fact that he had prepared all the materials in the past few days and asked someone to help pull him back.

So just after the beginning of June, the Du family began to build a house vigorously.

The main houses of the Du family are all adobe houses, and Du Yunda and Du Yunjie's houses are also adobe houses, but Du Yunlan's house is even Ruolan herself who paid for it to buy green bricks, so the house built for Du Yunlan is made of green bricks.

Now that Du Yunnuan has built a separate house, the Li family simply took the money to buy green bricks and came back.

As for Du Yunyan's side, Li went to tell her the situation.

"Grandma, you don't have to say it, I understand, my little sister has been at home for a long time, I will be fifteen years old in the New Year, and it has been a matter of the past two years, I have worked hard to build me a house, and it will be empty again, and I see that my second cousin and third cousin have gone to the town, and they may not come back in the future, what are you doing with so many houses?"

"My father's house is bigger than that of the fourth uncle and four aunts, so it's no problem for me to come out in the next room."

Du Yunyan during this time, in addition to helping the family, she practiced female celebrity under the guidance of Ruan Ying, Ruan Ying was different from Li Cui Lian Ruolan, she saw that Du Yunyan was really untalented, so she simplified some things, or found a shortcut to teach her.

For the first time, Du Yunyan felt that it was such a simple thing to be a student girl, so she was very interested during this time, and she couldn't wait to learn all the things that Ruan Ying had taught right away.

After all, Ruan Ying planned to live in Du's house for more than a month, and by mid or late June, she would return to Lengquan County.

Du Yunnuan has been learning embroidery with Du Yunyan these days, and the sound of the house next to her has become their accompaniment.

Just one room, one day to lay the foundation, two days to build the house, and the fourth day to put up the beams.

After the beam, Du Maoxing invited the Li family who came to help to have a meal, and then covered the green tiles, leaving the house to be leveled, and the Du family can do it themselves.

Li and Wu went to the town to buy several catties of pork and came back, and bought a pig's head back, added a lot of spices to marinate a pot of pig's head meat, and the pork was cut off from the fat to boil oil, lean meat and boiled fat meat residue plus newly harvested potatoes to burn a large pot of potato roast meat.

The smell of meat that has been wafting out since the afternoon made the people working there unbearable, and Li Liqiao and others knew that this was their dinner, and the work was more energetic.

Du Yunnuan and Du Yunyan were both greedy, the two of them really couldn't calm down to get the needle, put down the things together, got up and went into the kitchen.

"Grandma, it's so fragrant!" Du Yunnuan felt that his saliva was about to come out.

She had never felt that the meat was so fragrant, but now she felt that her nose was about to be fragrant, and her stomach was full of desire to eat.

Wu looked at the two sisters with a smile, then poked them in the pot with chopsticks, and then picked up a relatively small piece of meat with a spatula, put it on the cutting board and cooled it for a while, then lifted the kitchen knife and cut it into two pieces, and handed them to Du Yunyan and Du Yunnuan respectively.

"Come, help the eldest aunt taste it."

Facing the smiling gaze of Li and Li Cui on the side, Du Yunnuan was a little surprised, Du Yunyan next to him couldn't take care of so much, and he took a bite of it, and it was delicious!

Du Yunnuan took a bite of the braised pig's head meat, the meat was very elastic, perhaps because of some big ingredients, the smell of the meat was not seen at all, but it was very fragrant, which made people can't help but want to eat the next bite immediately.

Du Yunnuan finished eating his piece of meat, and he also praised it, "It's delicious!" ”

Wu smiled, "Okay, just taste it, you can eat it when it comes to the table later, now Yan'er will help me go to the river to pick two silk strips, and Nan Nan will help me pinch some shallots, okay?" ”

When it was almost evening, the last tile on the roof was covered, which meant that Du Yunnuan's house was completed.

There were Li Liqiao and Li Cui's brother Li Ligong who came to help, as well as Miao Zhishan, the father of Miao River of the Miao family next door, and several people saw that it was still early, so they cleaned up around the house, and remembered that the Li family wanted to raise pigs, so they repaired the pigsty that had not been used for several years.

By the way, a bad place in the cattle pen was repaired.

Li asked a few people to go home, take a shower, change into dry clothes, and come over for dinner again.

"Liqiao, meritorious service, bring your daughter-in-law and children over for dinner, Miao Zhishan too, bring your family to the river...... Forget it, I'll go directly to your house and shout. ”

Everyone listened to Li's orders, although they were a little embarrassed, but they knew that Li's preparations were very rich, and they didn't mean to be polite to them, and besides, they were all relatives.

In the evening, the Du family directly set up two tables in the courtyard, and the children simply did not serve the table, and ate in the courtyard with bowls.

Li Jiang and Miao He stayed by Du Yunnuan and Du Yunyan's side, as well as Li Ligong's son Li Hu, Du Yunnuan met for the first time.

Everyone usually calls Li Hu Xiaohu, he is only nine years old this year, and there is a lot of meat piled up in the bowl at this time, and he is eating with his mouth full of oil.

While eating, he said vaguely, "The meat made by my aunt and grandmother is so delicious!" ”

The other friends didn't have time to pay attention to him at all, so they all buried their heads in eating.

Li Ligong looked back and saw it, and immediately shook his head, "It's the first time I've seen him eat so actively, he usually always thinks about eating sugar and eating something else, but he refuses to eat." ”

Li Liqiao stretched out his hand and patted Li Ligong's shoulder, "Second brother, it's not that Xiaohu doesn't like to eat, but the rice is not as delicious as meat!" ”

The adults at the table laughed in unison.

Du Liansheng picked up the bowl in his hand, and in the bowl was Du Maoxing's home-brewed wine that he had treasured for a long time, dark brown in color, exuding a rich aroma of wine, and a group of men smelled it like a child who was hungry for meat.

"The two old watches and the seedlings have worked hard in the past few days, I salute you with a bowl!"

Du Liancheng also generally raised the bowl, "My brother has said everything, I won't talk nonsense, drink!" ”

Li Ligong, Li Liqiao and Miao Zhishan all raised the bowl, everyone drank together, Li Liqiao put the bowl down, "Cool!" ”

Li Jiang leaned over to Li Liqiao's side, "Dad, is the wine so delicious?" Let me taste it too, shall we? ”

Li Liqiao immediately drove him, "Go, go, go, your aunt's meat is so delicious that you can't stop your mouth?" Is alcohol something that small children can drink? ”

"Dad, don't you often say that I'm so old that I should help the family? Now it's your turn to drink and say I'm a child, you adults are really fast! ”

Li Liqiao glared at Li Jiang, and Li Jiang hurriedly hid next to Du Yunnuan.

Du Yunnuan and Du Yunyan laughed at him together, "Honestly admit that I am a child, but children also have to work for the family, otherwise there is no food, understand?" ”
