After the year, it was a good day for each family to start a house, and the craftsman invited by Uncle Sun was a well-known craftsman, so he came to Qingshan Village after a few days.

The craftsman's surname is Gu, he is not tall but powerful, and his thick palms are all calluses, and he only glanced at Yamanjiro's rough drawings, and after surveying the site, he issued fine construction drawings.

Two stilted buildings, the original two rooms on the left were converted into two rooms and utility rooms, and then separated from the main house from the courtyard wall.

Relying on the topography, the two stilted buildings are separated by a low wall, leaving a round door to communicate with each other, the big house and the second room have their own private courtyards, and can share the room, open two doors to enter and exit, convenient for the two families to live.

Besides, the stilted building, in addition to the peculiar appearance, also has a lot of things inside.

There are more people in the big house, and the big pillar is thirteen years old, and it is time to slowly plan to marry a daughter-in-law, so he divided six rows of fans and five rooms, the middle is the hall house for guests to rest, four rooms on the left and right, one room for the husband and wife of the mountain, one room for the other three brothers, and the one for the big pillar is ready to play more furniture.

Although there is only a family of three in the second room, it has also made five rooms, in addition to the two bedrooms for self-living, there is also a guest room and a study.

The two stilted buildings have a wide corridor on the side facing the courtyard, and if Jin and Du Yingqiu are lazy, they can also sit and work in the corridor, and they can talk to each other in the air, without having to visit the door.

The lower floor is used to raise livestock, before the family only raised chickens, used to lay eggs, the family is forced to hold two old hens to go, two rooms and a family.

The empty layer is obviously wasted to raise a chicken, and it is ready to be sold later, in addition to laying eggs, you can also raise broilers to slaughter and eat meat.

The wolf cub's new nest was also placed on the first floor, and Shan Tao pointed to the empty space where there was nothing and said to the wolf cub: "In the future, it will be up to you to guard the chickens, if you don't guard and steal yourself, you will be rewarded for eating bones every day in the future." ”

The wolf cub didn't understand the previous words, but it still understood the high-frequency word of bones, and shook its big tail to express its joy.

The house has a frame, and there are furniture, which is also a very expensive thing, and the big house can also move some usable from the original house, and the father and daughter in the second room can't look down on one of them.

"Let me tell you first, my carpenter job is very expensive, even if you are an acquaintance of Lao Sun, it is not cheap." Gu Dajiang's ugly words came ahead, the stilted building was not a conventional building, and he dared to say that he could make it alone within Cangjiang County.

The father and daughter boasted that they were now plump in their pockets, and they both patted their chests vigorously to say that silver was not a problem, and they were waiting for Du Yingqiu to come back and see a comfortable new home.

In the end, the big room paid about five taels of silver, which made the Jin family so distressed that he only gritted his teeth, but the second room cost a full twelve taels, which was still the price of a friend in the mouth of the ancient master.

This is still in the case that the wood is basically taken from the South Mountain, and the labor is basically lined by the villagers.

Touching the shrunken purse, Yamajiro was silent for a moment, and whispered to his daughter: "When your mother comes back, remember to help your father and say good things to me." ”

Although Shan Tao is not at home, he also knows the truth that money is hard to earn, and his little face nodded very seriously, "Let's clean up the house more beautifully, and my mother should care less about the silver spent." ”

After the money was in place, the ancient master immediately took his apprentices to start construction, first went to Nanshan to select suitable wood, and after processing, he could officially start construction.

During this period, Erzhu's eyes did not take his eyes off those high-spirited carpenters, Shan Tao rolled his eyes and pushed Erzhu forward: "Uncle Gu, my second brother is familiar with Nanshan, let him take you to choose wood." ”

After being busy with the adults, the little girl Gu Dajiang, who could also bargain, had already noticed it, and heard Uncle Sun say that it was the cat's life-saving benefactor, so her color eased a lot, and she nodded and agreed.

Erzhu naturally understood that this was his sister's opportunity to show himself, so he touched the head of the mountain peach, and happily took the ancient master's people to the mountain.

After deciding these things, Shan Tao was not idle, and was caught by the Jin family, "The villagers now say that you are Fuwa, and life is better with your second room." Follow the eldest lady to ask the villagers for help. ”

Whoever builds a house in the village basically cuts the wood from the mountains, and most of the workers invite the neighbors, and they don't say that they want to pay the workers, but only take care of the food.

After all, when everyone has built a house, the east family helps the west family and the west family help the other in turn, and most of them are resting at this time, and they can still work to fill their stomachs, and they are all very happy, and many of them volunteer.

At this time, it showed that the Jin family was a capable person who came to help people, but if he didn't want everyone, he naturally had to pick those who worked hard, but he couldn't refuse others on the surface, and there were many people in it.

It is inconvenient for Jin to teach his son these things, but it is much more convenient to talk a lot to Shan Tao, and he only treats Shan Tao as his own daughter and teaches her how to behave in the world.

"Most of the candidates are the ones who went with you to catch wild boars that time, and they are all young and strong who have a friendship before, and it is good for others to inquire. Add some people who are close to our family by blood, and it is enough. ”

After the selection is completed, it is a matter of hospitality, after all, there are a lot of old men, as well as a group of carpenters from the ancient masters, and eating is also a big deal.

If you want to buy ingredients, you have to borrow some utensils, you can't always ask people to squat when you eat, and you have to borrow more benches.

Shan Tao found that although Jin was illiterate, his heart was like a mirror, and he knew exactly what he had borrowed and how many ingredients he should buy, which was the experience of a perennial housekeeper.

For Shan Tao, who almost grew up by herself, these are blanks, she listens very carefully, and does not feel that these worldly sophistications and the knowledge in the books are more important, and even made notes with charcoal.

"It's better for you to write it down, so you don't forget." Jin looked at the top of Shan Tao's head and squinted with a smile, and there was a sense of satisfaction in his heart that he had never had in raising a son, "Ming'er will go to the county to buy meat, and then take care of the business of my mother's uncle's family, and I will also meet your two cousins of the Wang family." ”

Shan Tao nodded, and showed some longing, "Auntie, I still want to go and see my mother, but we have to hide the matter of building a house from her first, and there will be a surprise when my mother comes back." ”

Thinking about the silver spent in the second room, Jin silently felt that as long as Du Yingqiu was a sensible family person, there should be more frightens in addition to surprises, and touched the pigtail of the mountain peach, which did not discourage the doll's interest, and responded.

Later, Shan Tao took out his small satchel and thought about what to bring to Du Yingqiu, thinking about it and thinking that he should not worry about food and clothing at home in the county, so he learned his talents well and wrote the most neatly written words and folded them, ready to make Du Yingqiu happy.

After washing up, I was ready to go to sleep, and there was another shouting and scolding from the other end of the main house and the cry of Shan Chunhua, which were finally ended by Shan Saburo's angry roar.
