Chapter 24: Make up your mind to build a house

Mei Zhijun and She Yufen had already done a rough calculation when they were fine, they just wanted to build three small adobe houses to live in temporarily, and they chose to start construction in late summer and early autumn when the vegetables had already grown, and they would only need to spend two or three hundred yuan at most.

It took six or seven months to earn another two or three hundred yuan to come back, and Mei Zhijun and She Yufen both found it very easy.

Cheng Yufeng had already heard them say it on the road, and he had also figured out how to help Mei Zhijun and She Yufen.

"You can buy seeds and fertilizers in the city, and I will help you find someone, which should be much cheaper than buying them in Heigang Township." He held the teapot and said to Mei Zhijun and She Yufen: "You can use the money you saved to build a house, if it is not enough, I will add some more to you." ”

Although he is only twenty years old now, he has long since stopped studying.

At present, he has bought a big truck to help people travel long distances to haul goods, and he can earn a lot of money in a year.

Therefore, when he said that he would add some money to Mei Zhijun and them to build a house, he was full of confidence.

"And the glass, wood, and tiles you want to buy, I can also help you pull them all back, so that you can save a sum of money again." Cheng Yufeng had already calculated on the way back from the power plant, so now it is called a head.

Mei Zhijun and She Yufen were all stunned.

When she came back to her senses, She Yufen hurriedly waved her hand and refused, "Isn't this delaying your work!" No way! No way! ”

She knew that her cousin could earn hundreds or even thousands of yuan every time she got out of the car, and she was embarrassed to pull the other party to do her day job.

Cheng Yufeng glared at her, "I don't get out of the car every day!" Help you send the seeds and fertilizers back, and then help you pull a few trips of wood or something, and it will only take three or five days to die, what can you delay? ”

She Fengxia also nodded on the side, "It's just over the New Year, he doesn't have so much work, and he can't delay anything if he helps you for a few days." ”

Mei Zhijun and She Yufen glanced at each other, and then both of them saw the word Yidong in each other's eyes.

To be honest, although Li Guowen is a good person, his wife is not a fuel-efficient person, and Mei Zhijun and She Yufen can't stand her frequent asking them for things.

If they could build a house and move out a day earlier, of course Mei Zhijun and She Yufen couldn't ask for it.

Thinking that he had a total of more than 700 yuan in his hand (600 yuan earned from part-time work + 100 yuan of original savings + 50 to a little expenses from Wang Xiulan in the past two months), saving some money may not be able to buy enough seeds and fertilizers to build a house at the same time, She Yufen gritted her teeth and made up her mind.

She looked at Cheng Yufeng with a smile, "Then trouble Yufeng, you can help the eldest sister for a few days." When the eldest sister went back, she immediately found someone to help build the house. ”

Cheng Yufeng's smile became brighter and brighter, and he enthusiastically gave Mei Zhijun and She Yufen ideas, "Have you approved your homestead?" If you don't approve it, make a phone call to my grandma's house first, and I'll help you pull it up with the glass, so that they can find a place to help you save for a while. ”

- Majia Village is only about five miles away from Taizi Village, and the glass is placed there, and it is very easy for Mei Zhijun and them to take it away.

"Approved, but we haven't even built a wall yet, so it's better to put the glass in Majia Village for the time being." Mei Zhijun replied to Cheng Yufeng's words while quickly calculating, "I think so." I went back by car first, and found someone to help us build up the courtyard wall, and by the way, I also ordered the wood and tiles. Your eldest sister stayed in the city to buy seeds, fertilizer, glass, etc., and when she bought them, I almost built up the courtyard wall, and you just happened to help us pull wood and tiles by the way. ”

Cheng Yufeng also felt reliable when he heard it, so the matter was settled.

Early the next morning, Mei Zhijun returned to Heigang Township alone, while She Yufen stayed in the city with Mei Yali.

The first thing Mei Zhijun did when he returned to Heigang Township was to find acquaintances to help order tiles and buy wood.

By the time Cheng Yufeng drove back to Heigang Township with seeds, fertilizer, and glass, a small half of the courtyard walls on Mei Zhijun's side had already been erected.

According to the previous discussion, Cheng Yufeng unloaded the seeds, fertilizers, and glass at She Yufen's grandparents' house, and they kept them on their behalf, while he drove a half-empty agricultural tricycle to send She Yufen's mother and daughter back to Taizi Village.

There were no motor vehicles in Taizi Village, so as soon as the tricycle drove into the village, the little children in the village immediately ran over.

They followed the car, staring at it with curious eyes.

She Yufen sat in the car and greeted the people of Taizi Village all the way, and Cheng Yufeng sent her and Mei Yali to Li Guowen's house.

Li Guowen was not at home, and Li Guowen's wife immediately walked out of the house as soon as she heard the sound of a motor vehicle.

"Yo-this isn't Yufen!" As soon as she walked to the middle of the courtyard, she saw She Yufen holding the child.

She Yufen was pushing the door hard, and when she heard Li Guowen's wife's voice, She Yufen hurriedly turned her head and smiled at her, "Where is my aunt at home." ”

Li Guowen's wife said "um", and then looked at Cheng Yufeng again.

She Yufen walked over and pushed another door, "This is the Yufeng of my third aunt's family, who came to help our family build a house." ”

Cheng Yufeng didn't get out of the car, but only followed She Yufen and called "aunt".

Li Guowen's wife let out a "hey", and then looked at the big bags and small bags in the carriage.

found that it was a small half more than She Yufen and the things they took away, and Li Guowen's wife's mind suddenly became lively.

Cheng Yufeng drove into the courtyard and stopped outside the room they borrowed at She Yufen's signal.

The two began to move things down from the car, and Li Guowen's wife, under the banner of helping, rushed to get the big bags and small bags in the car without refusal.

She Yufen had long expected this to happen, so at the beginning, she left most of the things sent by her third aunt and aunt in Majia Village.

The remaining half was also tightly wrapped in a bag.

Li Guowen's wife carried it for a long time and pinched it several times, but she couldn't figure out what She Yufen had brought back in addition to the two bags of millet.

Thinking that when Mei Zhijun came back, only a few of his clothes were hung on the bicycle, so that she didn't have a chance to ask for anything, Li Guowen's wife couldn't help but curse in her heart, "two misers".

She originally wanted to be cheeky and lie in the house, waiting for She Yufen to open those packages, but She Yufen quickly took Cheng Yufeng to the northernmost part of Taizi Village.

Looking at General Tie, who had blocked the door of the house again, Li Guowen's wife was sulky.

Fortunately, although she loves to take advantage of small advantages and is stingy, she still can't do anything to sneak into the house to find out.

It wasn't until the evening that She Yufen came back to cook and gave her a pack of fried dumplings and a pack of Jiang rice noodles, and she was happy again.
