The next day, the bluestone bricks bought by Chu Xia were sent to the door, and the craftsmen invited also followed the door, a total of eight groups, each group of about twelve or thirteen people, five groups were responsible for building walls, and three groups were responsible for digging river ponds and building river pavilions.

According to Xiangling's requirements, the wall should be three layers of bricks thick, two people high, and the wall should be inserted with an iron rod, and the iron rod is wrapped around the iron cattle, and the thief will jump over the wall and be tied into a hedgehog.

And what about ponds?

It is required to block the inlet of the stream on the mountain first, drain the pond water through the culvert, dig deeper, and expand outward.

The pond side is protected with bluestone, the bank is built around the pond road with large pieces of stone, shade trees are planted on both sides of the road, two rest pavilions are built, and a viewing gallery into the pond and a boat-shaped river pavilion are built in the middle of the pond on the bank.

More than 100 meters from the pond, build a duck coop and a chicken coop.

After the explanation, the eight leading craftsmen took the people to work separately.

Xiangling and Chu Xia called the He couple and went to Lizheng's house to discuss the outsourcing of food, and the research was an afternoon.

Thirteen spices and five-spice powder alone have outsourced more than a dozen; The dried vegetable ingredients in the instant noodles were wrapped in three more ...... Divide all the programs, and in the end a total of thirty or forty companies were awarded.

These people who have a job are all simple countrymen, and they don't know how to express their gratitude to Xiangling's family.

Good fellows, there are more than 100 people to help, men to help build walls, women to help with light work such as cooking.

The speed of building the wall was much faster, and in about five days, the long fence and chicken coop were built first.

Xiangling took Chu Xia and walked along the fence in a big circle, and when she walked to the group who repaired the pond, she found that one of them had wrapped her entire face with a cloth towel, revealing only a pair of eyes.

Seeing Chu Xia and Xiangling coming over, their eyes flickered, and their bodies instinctively dodged behind the crowd.

Xiangling moved her nose, pretended not to see it, explained a few words to the leader, and then left with Chu Xia, turned to the door of the newly built chicken coop, and got into it while people were not paying attention, and secretly looked in the direction of the pond along the window.

Chu Xia was taken aback by her sister's actions, and looked at Xiangling's gaze together, and the fox asked, "What's wrong?" ”

Xiangling stared at the man who wrapped his head in the crowd: "It's Chu Chun, I don't know what the old mansion wants to do." ”

Chu Xia raised his eyebrows and said, "This pond is a long distance away from our front yard, what the hell can he do?" Otherwise, I'll go and chase him away now. ”

Xiangling shook her head and said, "I haven't figured out the other party's purpose yet, don't drive people away, find someone to keep an eye on him." ”

After another five days, Chu Chun still didn't make any movement, honestly listened to the arrangement of the craftsman, worked with others to move bluestones, paved the stone road, there was no abnormality at all, and there was nothing lost at home.

After eight or nine days of hard work, the pavilion and promenade in the center of the pond have also been built, only some delicate work of carving beams and painting buildings is missing, and Xiangling plans to find someone to do it in the spring next year.

The crowd was called to the front yard to settle their wages.

The leading craftsman received the money, and distributed the wages to the small workers below, and those who participated in the construction of the pavilion were sixty yuan per person per day, and only the small workers who were responsible for moving the bluestone were only given thirty yuan a day.

After getting paid, everyone smiled on their faces, thanked the owner one after another, and said goodbye and left.

Seeing Chu Chun with his head wrapped, he was about to leave the yard with his body bent, and for Chu Chun's inexplicable appearance and such a simple departure, Xiangling, who was puzzled, finally couldn't help it, and the ghost made a god shout: "Chu Chun." ”

Chu Chun's body stiffened, so he had to turn around.

When the crowd cleared, he took off the cloth towel that covered his face.

From before being found to after being discovered, for a total of ten days, Chu Chun has been covering a cloth towel, doing the heavy work of moving stones, sweat beads constantly, Chu Chun's face has been covered with a layer of eczema, looking a little scary to look dense.

Xianglinghu said suspiciously: "What is the purpose of you coming to my house to work?" ”

Chu Chun pulled the corners of his mouth bitterly, and held up the three hanging money he had just received in his hand to Xiangling: "What else can it be?" Of course, it's making money. ”

"Making money?" Xiangling was a little confused, but she didn't expect this answer.

Chu Chun was arrested, and simply got straight to the point: "The gap between my mother and Lin Yue is getting bigger and bigger, and the old house doesn't even talk to me, and it's not good for me to borrow eggs to make up for Yue'er, so I have to make money by myself." I don't have the craft, and I haven't suffered a lot, and the general artificial head is unwilling to ask me, so finally this family wants me, and I know that it is your family in Chujia Village. I didn't want to be chased away by you, so I covered my face. ”

Xiangling looked at Chu Chun with a red rash in a daze, feeling very novel, you must know that in the past, Chu Chun was a very unreasonable and lazy character.

Although it is just a simple job such as moving bluestone, it is already reborn.

It seems that living alone away from home is the only artifact for a man's growth, and Lin Yue is finally a little hopeful.

Seeing Xiangling looking at him directly, Chu Chun took the three hanging coins into his arms like an old hen protecting food, looked at Xiangling vigilantly and said, "I'm done with my work, can't you ask for the money back!! ”

Xiangling suddenly "fluttered" and said in her heart, this second fool, why was he deceived by him back then?

Xiangling spread out her palms and said, "Aren't you going to buy eggs for Lin Yue to replenish her body?" I have a lot of eggs, buy or not buy? ”

Chu Chun pondered for a moment, and finally made up his mind to hold up a bunch of money in front of Xiangling, and said seriously: "I asked, other people's families are ten yuan and four eggs, this is one hundred yuan, you have to give me forty eggs, I won't buy your family if it is less." ”

I actually inquired about the price of eggs, and it seems that I have really grown up a lot.

Xiangling turned around and entered the house, took out a basket of newly picked up eggs, handed them all to Chu Chun and said, "These, no less than forty, take them back." ”

Chu Chun's face was flushed, and he wanted to say something, but he didn't say anything, only stuffed a bunch of money to Xiangling, and held back two words in his mouth: "Thank you." ”

Chu Chun was about to leave with the eggs, but when he walked to the door, he stopped, turned around and said: "Because I live in the house you borrowed, my father and mother are very unhappy with me, and scolded me for 'being a father if you have money, and being a mother if you have milk', and I have become a lackey of your family, so I don't even say anything to me." Just the day before yesterday, my mother suddenly talked to me, and asked about you, I asked the old house to calculate what happened to you, you pay attention to yourself. ”

After speaking, Chu Chun left.

Chu Chun actually warned himself? It seems that his kind gesture is also rewarded, but what can the old house calculate himself?

Xiangling was very troubled by Chu Chun's words.

It's like knowing that someone is going to steal, but you don't know who is stealing or what to steal.
