Chapter 14: Unfairness
Zhu Chaozhang's eyes widened, isn't six acres too big? Does this girl understand? Open your mouth and come.
But thinking that the homestead was only one or two silver per acre, the words he was going to use for persuasion were swallowed back by him.
"Cheng, it just so happens that tomorrow the bricklayer will also come to the door to recognize the place, and then give them two more copper plates, let them help measure the land together, Grandpa Zhu will not lose you."
Ye Sangwan frowned slightly when he heard this, "Then what do I have to prepare tomorrow?" ”
"Just prepare some good food and drinks." Suddenly thought of the situation of the Ye family's big house, "Let your grandmother Zhu and your aunts handle the wine and food for you." They are familiar. ”
"That's not possible, I'll prepare the ingredients tomorrow and go over early in the morning to help, and I'll have to trouble Grandpa Zhu to guide me when the time comes."
Zhu Chaozhang smiled, "That's a good feeling, Grandpa Zhu loves to eat the food cooked by the girl in the evening, wouldn't it be beautiful to let your uncle make some good wine tomorrow." ”
……
Early the next morning, Ye Sanwan prepared breakfast in the space as usual, then lit a fire to boil water, and moved things to the existing pots and pans.
She got up very early, and the Yun family's kitchen was some distance from the bedroom, so Ye Sangwan was not worried that her secret would be discovered.
Ye Sangyan and Yun Xiang slept in the same room last night, and she was assigned to a small room, with only a bed, a desk, and a small cage in the room.
Although the room is small, it is fully equipped, and it can have its own space, Ye Sangwan is very satisfied.
As a boy, Ye Chuan could no longer squeeze in with her, but arranged him in the ear room next to Yun Heng, so that the two could take care of each other.
This is Yun Heng's own mention.
This decision shocked Chen Ru, as a mother.
As everyone knows, Yun Heng has his own plans for doing this.
No, Ye Tool Man Chu An came in handy.
Ye Chu'an, who had just finished washing, found that he had a wound on his hand when he was washing, although it had scabbed, it still hurt a little when he touched the water.
So, he walked into the kitchen with a tense face, his emaciated face looking more and more gloomy.
He pursed his lips, with a stubborn look, his eyes were full of tears, and he shouted at Ye Sangwan aggrievedly: "Eldest sister ~ Chu An hurts!" ”
Ye Sangwan, who was setting the meal, was disintegrated by this slightly coquettish and soft voice, and the pity in his heart arose, and he hurriedly asked: "Where does Chu'an hurt?" Eldest sister, take a look. ”
Ye Chu'an hurriedly showed the wound to Ye Sangwan, Ye Sangwan blew twice at the wound, and then comforted Ye Chu'an while touching Ye Chuan's head: "Wait for the eldest sister to apply medicine to you after breakfast, and it will be fine in two days." ”
Ye Chuan nodded obediently.
Yun Heng swallowed his saliva indescribably, and a strange light flashed in his eyes.
As soon as he sat down, he deliberately let out a gasp sound: "Hiss! ”
Hearing this, Ye Sangwan frowned and looked over, his tone was a little impatient, "Why are you running around again?" ”
Yun Heng: ???
It's not fair!
When everyone arrived, everyone began to have breakfast.
A large table of breakfast is very rich, and the staple food is not only white porridge, but also steamed buns and dumplings.
The side dishes include cold vegetables and sauerkraut, and in addition to tea eggs, Ye Chu'an's favorite hibiscus eggs are steamed.
But the table is really a bit big, and the position of the hibiscus egg is opposite Ye Chun'an, he can't reach it, but he wants to eat it very much.
So he coquettishly said to Ye Sangwan again, "Eldest sister, I want to eat hibiscus eggs." ”
"Good! The eldest sister will bring it to you. As he spoke, he scooped two large spoonfuls with a spoon with a smile on his face.
Yun Heng's eyes lit up, "Ah Wan, I want to eat tea eggs." ”
Hearing this, not only Ye Sangwan, but everyone looked at him strangely.
Ye Sangwan thought that this tea egg might be placed in front of him, and he was not easy to take, so he kindly took one for him.
Yun Hengjin stared at her with burning eyes, making her confused.
Who knew that he broke the gong in three seconds, and when the egg was put in Yun Heng's palm, it made him grin with his teeth, so it was not sour.
Yun Heng: ???
Ah Wan is clearly treating her differently, she is obviously so gentle and amiable to Chu An, but she is ...... to him
Without waiting for Yun Heng to figure it out, Ye Sangwan had already carried all kinds of wild vegetables that Yun Xiang and Ye Sangyan had dug up in the back mountain early in the morning, as well as the hares and pheasants that Yun Heng had hunted yesterday, and left.
On the way, Ye Sangwan found a place where no one was, and went to the space to get a lot of ingredients, in addition to two pork, there was also a pig's trotter.
The vegetables are picked in the vegetable patch, fresh peppers, eggplant, bitter gourd......
The two baskets full of Dengdeng's ingredients frightened Grandma Zhu and the others to think that Ye Sangwan had moved all the good things from the house.
There were only four bricklayers who came to find the way, and each bricklayer had strong tendons and flesh, and at first glance he was a good worker.
The leader is an honest-looking middle-aged man surnamed Zhao, and everyone politely calls him Foreman Zhao.
I heard that Ye Sangwan was going to buy a homestead, and when dividing the location of the homestead, he gave Ye Sangwan a lot of good advice.
It took about half an hour for Ye Sangwan to determine the location of the homestead.
The group discussed the style and materials of the new house on the spot.
Wearing this, Ye Sangwan had reservations about other things, but the structure of the old toilet and washroom made her unbearable.
Although she usually washes in the space, she still finds it unbearable to bear the filth exposed to the air every time she passes by.
Last night, she drew the drawings, "Foreman Zhao, here are some of my thoughts on the room, see if you can help me build it like this." ”
The drawings were handed over, and the clear structural diagram made Foreman Zhao's eyes shine, and he hurriedly shared it with the other three bricklayers, and Foreman Zhao was eager to try: "I didn't expect Miss Ye to have such an opinion on construction, your method is very feasible, with my understanding of construction over the years, the construction of your kind of room will definitely be popular all over the country."
Is Miss Ye interested in doing this business with Zhao? ”
"This ......" Ye Sangwan was helpless, she just wanted to live comfortably!
But if you can make money, who is too much?
"Foreman Zhao has the heart to take me to make a fortune, and Ah Wan is happy."
Foreman Zhao laughed, "I don't look like Miss Ye is in a hurry to use money, so if I build a room like this, I will give Miss Ye a 10% dividend, how about a monthly settlement?" ”
Ye Sangwan has no opinion, the windfall should not be greedy, she smiled: "It's all up to Foreman Zhao." ”
Ye Sangwan's straightforward temperament, Foreman Zhao couldn't help but praise: "Miss Ye's temperament is not vulgar, which is really impressive. ”
"Foreman Zhao praises falsely!"
Zhu Chaozhang on the side was very happy about this, he was afraid that Ye Sangwan would not know how to expose the greed of human nature, but he never expected that this girl would know so much about reason, which surprised him.
He was extremely relieved in his heart: this girl has finally grown up!
With the help of Grandma Zhu and Zhu Jizhong's daughter-in-law Wang, Ye Sangwan personally cooked a table of good dishes.
Several bricklayers at the dinner table were still full of praise for the drawings in the room, and finally gave Ye Sanwan a reduction of five taels of silver when quoting, which was really unexpected!
After a full meal, Ye Sangwan agreed with the bricklayers on the start time, and watched a few people leave crookedly in the sunset......
In the kitchen, Ye Sangwan found Grandma Zhu and Wang, and told them about their idea of asking them to help cook for the bricklayers.
I just estimated the time with Foreman Zhao, and it will take about a month for the house to be completed, and she is willing to pay three taels of silver to ask Grandma Zhu and the Wang family to be responsible for the lunch and dinner of the bricklayers.
After listening to Ye Sangwan's words, Grandma Zhu waved her hand again and again, "What effort does it take to cook, we have to eat it ourselves, and we don't need to talk about money." ”
The group of people debated in the kitchen for a while, and Grandma Zhu and Wang finally agreed to the matter, but they were still worried about paying the salary.
Even Zhu Chaozhang, who was resting outside, was alarmed, and he walked towards Ye Sangwan with his hands behind his back: "Evening girl, you don't have to be polite to me and Grandma Zhu, besides, it costs you a lot of silver taels to get a house, you are so difficult......
"Grandpa Zhu, Grandma Zhu, it's not difficult for me, I still have money in my hand." As he spoke, he took out a hundred taels of silver tickets from his sleeve,
"This is the silver I plan to use to build a house, and Grandpa Zhu will keep it for me."
Zhu Chaozhang's words were swallowed back into his stomach again.
The child is capable, he should be happy!
"Evening girl, tomorrow you have to go to the county with Grandpa Zhu to apply for the deed, the sooner the better, we will go to the county seat to pull the bricks and tiles back together, and the construction will start in two days."
Ye Sangwan nodded, "Okay, I'll come over as soon as it's dawn." The matter of building a house is entrusted to Grandpa Zhu and Uncle Zhong, and these five taels of silver should be regarded as the wages of you and Uncle Zhong.
You can deduct the rest of the expenses from the two hundred taels of silver, and if it is not enough, you can tell me. ”
Zhu Chaozhang refused again and again: "No, no, we don't want wages." You can rest assured about building a house, I will ensure that you remember the accounts clearly, and the bricklayers will not be lazy. ”
"If you don't want the salary, I'll ask someone else." Ye Sangwan pretended to be angry.
Zhu Chaozhang was a little anxious, "How can you ask others to have your own people...... You girl, you were waiting for Grandpa Zhu and me to jump in by myself, right?
Okay, okay, I'll be a night girl to honor my grandfather.
But late girl, we have to be down-to-earth, and we can't deceive others......"
Ye Sangwan: ......
Well, the old man began to worry that her money was coming from the wrong place.
Ye Sangwan couldn't wait to defend himself with a long mouth......
At this time, a great happy event was happening in the Yun family.
In the hall of the Yun family, Xiuchun's eyes were watery, and he held Chen Ru's hand excitedly, and said incoherently: "I didn't expect you to be the cousin with excellent embroidery in my uncle's mouth, and we have been in this Banyuepo Village for nearly 20 years, and we have missed so many years." ”
"I didn't expect such a coincidence in the world." Chen Ru's eyes also lit up with a light, "Back then, my aunt's carved almonds in the best Mingxiang Pavilion made a lot of jokes, and now I think about it as if it was yesterday......"
Xiuchun's eyes flashed, and she smiled unnaturally: "Indeed, if Lan County had not been breached, our Wei family would not have been ruined and our relatives would have been separated......
"Look how ugly you are crying, and the child is still watching!" Chen Ru frowned slightly, and quietly withdrew his hand from Xiuchun's hand.
Today, Xiuchun came to the door to recognize her relatives with the boudoir guard, she was originally very excited, but she felt incredible when she thought about it.
Wei Yan is the name of the third uncle and concubine of Chen Ru's grandfather's family, after Chen Ru's mother insisted on marrying the poor and sour father, she did not have much contact with her grandfather's family, and she was far away, so she only mentioned one or two in the book.
After the city was broken, he lost contact with the Wei family, and only based on the other party's words, how could Chen Ru know whether the other party was an enemy or a friend?
