Chapter 29: "Mu Gui"

Daddy Chen smiled: "Yes, we can, but our bricks and tiles are not enough." But there's no hurry, let's build up the courtyard wall first, and then buy as many bricks and tiles as we need. ”

He looked at the leaky stove house and suggested, "When you rebuild the stove house, you can also bring in that oven." But you need to go to Lizheng to change the deed drawings. ”

The expansion and reconstruction of the village requires Li Zheng to nod and agree, and stamp and sign the deed and drawings of the heart.

However, this kind of thing of remodeling in his own yard is generally not refused.

Father Chen felt that Yang Mu was treating their father and son, so he was especially considerate of her, and said, "If Miss Yang has plenty of money, I suggest that you take advantage of this time to directly build all the houses you want to build, and let Li Zheng change the deed at one time." ”

Yang Muzheng has this intention, in the future, when Yang Shishi grows up, he will also marry a wife and have children, and Qiuqiu must also have a small nest of his own, and the house at home will not be enough.

"Uncle Chen, how much silver will it cost to build a house?"

Father Chen said: "It depends on how much is covered, let's calculate it later." ”

He asked his three sons to take out a bag of white ash and start to draw the line of the courtyard wall, while he and Yang Mu discussed with Yang Mu where to build the house.

Father Chen is a veteran, and after discussing it, he quickly drew a drawing for Yang Mu.

Father Chen put down the charcoal pen and said: "Three rooms in the backyard and two rooms in the front yard, the bricks and tiles cost about twenty taels of silver, and the salary is yours, six taels." ”

Yang Mu still has a lot of money left in his hand, which is enough to stamp it.

She nodded in agreement with this plan, first went to the old man in Houshan Fei to carry half a bucket of milk, and then went to the trap to take a look, there was an adult wild boar!

Ah......h

Yang Mudu was a little embarrassed, I was afraid that no one would believe this luck.

The wild boar is too big, at least more than 300 catties.

After carrying the wild boar home, even Yang Mu's legs were a little weak.

She drank a big bowl of water, and saw that the Chen family father and son had already drawn a white gray line on the ground and sat on the ground to drink water.

Yang Mu went to the entrance of the village and waited, and it was not until the end of the day that the ox cart that delivered the bricks arrived.

Seven ox-cart bricks.

The old cow's nose was exhaling hot air, and his tired legs were shaking.

After unloading the car, Yang Mu settled the balance to the person who pulled the car, and invited them to drink water.

The cart pullers rested for a moment and then took their leave.

The Chen family father and son looked at the bricks all over the yard and began to build the courtyard wall with mud.

Yang Mu remembered that glutinous rice soup was added to the walls in ancient times, so he boiled several large pots of glutinous rice soup and asked the Chen family father and son to use this instead of water.

Father Chen smiled: "Miss Yang is still an insider, this glutinous rice water, it's not that rich people can't afford it!" ”

As he spoke, the eldest son of the Chen family had already adjusted the mud, and the second and third sons of the Chen family had already pulled the line.

The yard was in full swing.

Yang Mu went to Westinghouse to deliver medicine to Mu Dalang.

Look at Mu Dalang is giving the end of the book of "Tianxian Pei".

She smiled: "Don't worry, when the bookstore sells the first two books well, we can sit on the ground and increase the price." ”

Mu Dalang accepted the written manuscript, spread out the paper, and said, "I'm okay left and right." ”

You can't really eat soft rice, right?

He is dignified Lin Dalang, and he will never be a man who eats soft rice!

The knobly jointed fingers held a cheap brush, and with a stroke of the pen, he wrote down the title of the book - "Mu Gui".

Yang Mu tilted his head and made a contemplative state.

This is not the story she has told, Mu Dalang is going to create his own creation?

And her name?

She pointed to the word "Mu" on the paper, and pretended to be surprised: "This word seems to be the same as the word on my little gourd?" ”

It's just that there is one more point.

Mu Dalang raised his eyes and glanced at her, there seemed to be a smile in his ancient eyes, and said, "It's your name." The following word is pronounced 'return'. ”

Yang Mu's heart moved, she couldn't keep pretending to be illiterate, this was an opportunity.

In the evening, she can ask word by word, and gradually, she can no longer pretend to be illiterate.

Coming out of the Westinghouse, Yang Mu took the drawings and the house deed and went to Lizheng's house.

Lizheng's granddaughter-in-law had just given birth, and the child was babbling and crying.

Li Zheng's daughter-in-law Ma Shi was very happy when she saw Yang Mu bring a big bowl of milk, and urged Li Zheng to change the deed for Yang Mu.

After Yang Mu left, Ma Shi sighed.

"Look at the old Yang family's style, it's not as good as the granddaughter of this bandit who can do things!"

Li Zheng lifted the coat he was wearing, nodded and nodded, what the daughter-in-law said was so right!

It's only been a few days since the family was separated, and the girl began to expand the house!

Li Zheng suddenly frowned, and said to himself, "Where did this kid get the money?" ”

The modified deed will cost at least twenty taels of silver to build, and with the courtyard wall she is building today, this is not a small amount.

But when Yang Mu split up, he only got ten taels of silver for the division fee!

Ma Shi said on the side: "This Mu girl is also a diligent person, she goes up to the mountains to hunt every day, and her family can eat meat every day!" ”

Ma didn't understand, but Li Zheng knew that it was difficult to make so much money just by hunting.

……

Yang Mu made a big pot of rice for lunch, stir-fried greens, cabbage stew, stir-fried pork slices with wild mushrooms, and fish soup.

There are many people who eat at home, and Yang Mu makes large portions, and all the dishes are served in pots.

The father and son of the Chen family were sweating, rinsed at will, and sat down to eat.

The youngest son of the Chen family was stunned when he looked at the table of meals.

Got meat?

So much meat?

He hadn't eaten meat in a long time!

Is it Chinese New Year today?

The well-informed Father Chen was also stunned, even if he worked in a large family, he had never had such food.

Yang Mu was afraid that the Chen family's father and son would be uncomfortable eating with them, so he had already set aside the food of his family of three and went to the West House with it.

After bringing Yang Shi back, the three of them gathered together to eat in the West House.

Yang Shi is not very good at using chopsticks, holding a spoon and taking a big bite of dry rice.

Mu Dalang asked, "When is the next time you go to the county seat?" ”

Yang Mu swallowed the cabbage in his mouth and asked, "Do you have anything you need to buy?" ”

Mu Dalang said: "There is a letter that I want to send out botherfully. ”

Yang Mu was stunned, and there was a faint sourness in his heart.

Did he want to write a letter to his family to deliver the message?

Is he finally leaving?

Mu Dalang saw that Yang Mu was suddenly silent, the corners of his mouth curled slightly, and said, "It's something else, not what you think." ”

Yang Mu glanced at him puzzled, other things?

Ay? How do you know what I'm thinking?

Mu Dalang said: "Starting tonight, I will teach you to read and hyphenate." ”

He glanced at the newly written notebook today, and said, "Just learn from that." ”

Children generally start learning from the catchy "Three Character Classic", "Hundred Family Names" and "Thousand Character Text".

But as an adult, it's best to start by reading what interests you most.

Yang Mu blinked, hey?

Husband and wife are of the same heart, and they coincide!

She immediately forgot the surprise of the letter she had just sent, and responded crisply, as if with a smile.

Mu Dalang looked at her slightly stunned, and the woman in front of him seemed to be unable to overlap with the little girl when she was a child.

After many years, he still remembers the inferiority complex and loneliness in the eyes of that little sister.

Now that she has lived in the village for so long, and has such a bright smile, he is a little hesitant whether he should send the news of finding Yang Mu back to the capital.
