Seeing her wrinkled face angrily, Zhang Yu smiled to herself, coughed dryly twice and jumped off the wall, "Why don't you spend money on my sheep?" I'll give you a cheaper price. ”

"How cheap?" Yao Nian asked angrily, she didn't expect this child to be the head of the family.

"The tone is so impulsive, be careful of the corners of your mouth!"

Zhang Yu muttered and said, "Ten taels of silver and a sheep, how about it?" ”

"Heh..."

Yao Nian sneered, turned his head and was about to leave.

Zhang Yu hurriedly called out to her, touched his nose and said, "I'm just kidding, why are you angry?" Watch your eyes. ”

Yao Nian didn't bother to waste time with him here, "I don't have time to waste time with you here, does the village chief's family know where it is?" Show the way. ”

"I'll take you."

Zhang Yu snorted arrogantly, walked in front of the two, and muttered, "Can't you afford to make a joke?" ”

Yao Nian was two steps away from him, and naturally heard his muttering, she rolled her eyes and didn't respond.

After a while, the village chief Zhang Guobai's house arrived.

It is a little different from the house that Yao Nian saw along the way, the house of the village chief's family is like a temple, and the same thing is that there is a large yard at the door, in which many cattle and sheep are raised.

Yao Nian didn't look into the courtyard, she was afraid that she wouldn't be able to stop her saliva if she looked at it any longer.

Zhang Yu stood at the courtyard door and knocked on the door, shouting at the top of his voice, "Uncle Village Chief, are you at home?" Those who fled came. ”

As soon as he finished speaking, the door creaked open.

The door was opened by a woman wrapped in a gray-pink headscarf, and she was not surprised to see Yao Nian and the two, but turned sideways to let them in.

Zhang Yu also wanted to go in, but the woman's legs stretched out to block his way, "Don't come, you went out with Xiao Nan yesterday, and he is still very hot." ”

When Zhang Yu heard this, he became even more anxious, and begged with his hands folded, "Auntie, just let me go in and have a look, I'll go in and see Xiao Nan and I'll leave." ”

"I'm sick, what's so good, you go quickly, I'm going to close the door."

He wanted to say something, but was pushed by the woman and slammed the door shut.

Yao Nian walked in front, naturally heard their words, and remembered what the village chief asked her yesterday if she was a doctor.

The village chief suddenly relented, didn't he want her to help his child see a doctor?

Yao Nian thought and followed the woman into the hall.

Zhang Guobai was sitting in the main hall and making tea.

Hearing their footsteps, he looked up and motioned for them to sit casually, "Coming?" Feel free to sit. ”

Yao Nian answered, found a position not near and not far away, and sat down.

"Fresh pre-rain pu'er, taste." He didn't rush to ask about the foundation, but leisurely poured tea for Yao Nian and the others.

Yao Nian took a shallow sip, and did not evaluate the quality of the tea, but went straight to the point, "Village chief, we really want to buy that piece of land, here is some silver we scraped together." ”

She handed over a small package.

Zhang Guobai didn't open it, just glanced at it and said, "I'm afraid these are not enough." ”

"Yes." Yao Nian nodded, "There are also some hairpin jewelry, you can estimate it, how much worse it is..."

She didn't say anything, Zhang Guobai nodded thoughtfully, opened it and counted it carefully.

"Although these jewels are all silver and the style is good-looking, they are worthless when they are bought and sold, and these are at most twenty taels of silver."

Yao Nian nodded, "Then there are still thirty taels of silver, we really can't make it up, I wonder if the village chief can give us an IOU?" ”

Zhang Guobai looked up at her, his eyes were meaningful, "I told you at the beginning, it won't be cheap." ”

"I know, just make an IOU, a month, within a month, I will definitely return the original amount of thirty taels."

Zhang Guobai smiled, thinking that she was whimsical, they only had five taels of silver for a little lamb, and they had to raise it for three months before they could sell it, she was empty-handed, and she actually said such a big thing that she could pay back thirty taels a month.

Knowing that he didn't believe it, Yao Nian's heart was crossed, and he said bluntly, "I swear, if I can't pay back these thirty taels of silver in a month, I won't have to die!" ”

The woman on the side sighed, looking at her with some admiration, they are the most taboo here, and it will be fulfilled nine times out of ten, several people died in their village because of this, and from then on, everyone didn't dare.

Zhang Guobai's face changed and changed after hearing Yao Nian's words, and his gaze became complicated when he looked at Yao Nian.

The two eyes brushed on her body, Yao Nian was a little confused, could it be that his oath was not poisonous enough?

She was brewing, ready to make another poisonous oath, but before she could open it, Zhang Guobai hurriedly interrupted her.

"I agreed."

Yao Nian choked violently, coughed twice and said in astonishment, "Really? ”

Zhang Guobai was a little helpless, "Really, I'll give you an IOU now." ”

After making the IOU, Yao Nian went back with the foundation papers.

Zhang Guobai did not break his promise to let them move wood, found a few dilapidated houses, and let a few strong men in the village demolish them three times and two dismantle them, and then moved back with Yao Nian.

With the foundation paperwork and wood, it's time to start building the house.

Chen Qian found a few people who could build houses and told them to start planning places to build houses in the afternoon.

As a result, several of them sat on the ground without any energy, and said weakly, "What kind of house are you building, we haven't eaten for three days, and we have wasted energy to drink water and run to the toilet every day, where can we still build a house." ”

Several other people echoed one after another, and some even didn't even want to speak, and it took a lot of effort to come over, and they lay on the ground in a daze.

Seeing them languishing, Chen Qian also had a feeling of having more than enough heart and insufficient strength, water was available, and he couldn't die temporarily if he had water to drink, but he didn't have the strength to eat at all.

If you want to build a house, the next thing you do is heavy work, and you can't do it if you don't have the strength.

Chen Qian was worried, and Ouyang Jin came back with three children.

"Except for a few wild vegetables, the rest is cow dung." Ouyang Jin took a handful of wild vegetables full of dirt and complained.

Chen Qian glanced at the handful of wild vegetables, and swallowed the words that came to his mouth.

That little bit of wild vegetables, it is estimated that one person will not be enough to eat, and it is not enough to eat wild vegetables.

Yao Nian came out of the tent and saw the wild vegetables in Ouyang Jin's hand, and looked at the vegetable-like faces of the two of them, as well as the few people lying on the ground, and understood something in his heart.

With the foundation paperwork in hand, building a house is important, but filling your stomach is even more important.

The three children ran back and fell to the ground exhausted, panting, sweating, Yao Nian was about to go over and let them wash their faces, when he heard a terrible scream behind him.

She turned her head to see that she had almost fainted.
