Chapter 42: Repairing the House
A year has passed, and this year she is twenty years old, and she is an old girl here.
Today was the day when they asked someone to come to the mountain to help repair the house, and at first no one agreed to come to the mountain to help them repair the house, because those people thought the mountain was unlucky. They also knew about the "plague" rumors about the mountain, so no one wanted to come to the mountain.
Although there have been a lot of rumors since they bought this mountain at the beginning, there are also many people who know that they live on this mountain, and people are indeed safe and sound. But people's hearts are always unacceptable, so much so that no one wants to come to this mountain even after so long.
Later, they tried a lot of ways but failed to invite people, and finally Li Bokang thought of a way to solve this matter.
In fact, it is not particularly difficult, first of all, he has a reputation for being a showman, and he is also a gifted showman, which is one reason. Nowadays, people still respect people very much, and he is even more awe-inspiring and convinced. Although it was rumored that there was a plague in Qingyun Mountain, it was many years ago, and many of them had only heard about it.
In addition, they were not worried about the plague, so they asked a doctor who was more convinced by the people to go and check it. They absolutely believe in the safety of Qingyun Mountain, so they are not afraid of the results of the doctor's examination at that time.
It is said that the doctor they are looking for is still their old acquaintance, that is, Dr. Shi from Chuncaotang. At first, when they found Dr. Shi, he still couldn't understand it, but after they explained the reason to him, Dr. Shi agreed without saying a word. At that time, he also said: "I don't believe that there is a plague in any mountain, if there is really a plague, how can the people under the mountain have nothing to do, okay, I have helped you with this, and I also want to see what is going on on this mountain." ”
Later, it turned out that Qingyun Mountain was normal, there was no plague and nothing, it was just an ordinary mountain. They still don't know why the people of the two villages died for no reason, but at least it proves that the mountain is safe.
The next thing went well, and as soon as Dr. Shi finished the inspection, he told the residents of the town about the results, and because of Dr. Shi's reputation in the town, those people still believed it.
But the last thing convinced them more, remember the mute woman who sent them back to the mountains when she was injured a few years ago? Later, they found the mute woman through the relationship of Dr. Shi, and then asked her to tell those people that she had been to Qingyun Mountain two years ago.
Although she couldn't speak, she could understand them, and she could still nod or shake her head when asked. In the end, those people asked her in person, and only after they completely believed that Qingyun Mountain was safe, they could find someone to go to the mountain to help them repair their houses.
And, in fact, it's still the reason for money, the current life is really not very good, and there will still be many people willing to have money in the account to make the family live a little better. Besides, the rumors about the plague have been confirmed to be false, and Qingyun Mountain is safe. And so the matter was quickly resolved.
However, speaking of which, they decided to repair the house because Li Bokang and his classmates wanted to come to the house as guests, although there were houses in the county, but none of them lived in the county for a long time. And this time there are still a few people who have a good relationship with Li Bokang, so it is not good for people to be guests in the county house. The most important thing is that they all know that they live on the same mountain, so they agree to bring them as guests after grinding with Li Bokang.
When he came back to tell her, she didn't do much, she just thought it was good, and he also made a few good classmates, so he was quite happy. It's just that later, I felt that the home was too simple, and the best house was only a wooden house, and it had been several years, so I didn't think it was beautiful. So she proposed to Li Bokang about repairing the house.
Li Bokang agreed to repair the house, he wanted to repair it before, but he really didn't have much money at that time, and the situation at that time was not raised. He still felt a little guilty about this, whether it was when he was still in the town or in the county, he lived better than she lived at home.
Now that she has offered to repair the house, he will be much more at ease. Speaking of which, he had to thank his classmates, who might not have been able to repair the house so quickly if they hadn't come to see it.
After hiring people, they have to prepare materials, bricks, tiles, wood and so on. They don't have anything, and because they are in a hurry to repair now, they can only buy them all. Because she is a woman, it is inconvenient for these things to come forward, so Li Bokang took a month's leave in the school hall to facilitate the repair of the house this time.
However, they also thought about it, and the house they had built before would not be demolished, but they could build a house next to each other in front of their previous house. And the two of them didn't have to build much, and the open space was still wide enough for them to repair the house.
However, they still want to include the house they built before in the new house. You don't have to make any special things, just use a wall to simply enclose them inside. However, it is also necessary to wait for the person who repairs the house to come and make a specific decision, otherwise it will not be good if there is any problem when repairing the house in the future.
The rest of the time was busy repairing the house, and this time they invited more people, more than a dozen people. Although there are more people, the money may have to be spent more, but the speed of the more people is fast, and the foundation has been laid in less than a day.
This time, they just built an ordinary house, which was similar to the house where those people lived down the mountain, and there was no special difference. Because they were still buying materials and pulling them up the mountain, the people who had asked for help didn't have anything to do for the time being, so they asked them to help cut the road down the mountain. Anyway, they also paid for it, and by the way, they could also cut the road a little wider.
In this way, it took half a month for the house to be repaired. It's a house that resembles a courtyard house but it's not, it's about the same as a house in the county. There are five main rooms, a hall with two bedrooms, a kitchen and a study. There are two rooms on the left and right sides, one side is used as a side room and the other is used to house livestock. In the middle is a large courtyard dam, the gate is a simple wall, but there is a corridor that can block the rain, this corridor is also in front of the main house, more than a meter wide, mainly for the usual nothing to sit on it.
The orientation is to sit in the north and face the south, with the back of the mountain and facing the water, which is a good place to be close to the mountain and the water. This time it cost more than ten or twenty taels of silver to repair the house, not counting the food, and then they had to buy furniture and spend more than ten taels of silver. This time it can be regarded as emptying out the family.
