Chapter 104: Baijia Village
On the side of building the shed, although it is cold, you still have to build the shed quickly, otherwise the elderly, women and children will have no place to shelter from the wind and rain, and they will not be able to survive.
There is no mud to paste the wall, there is no blue brick wall, only the wooden planks nailed out of the grab, to say that the wind is also a bit difficult to block the wall, but it is better than sleeping in the open air, more people can be warmer.
When it was getting dark, the four greenhouses were already up, and the roofs were covered with grass and mud, which was warmer than the wooden walls.
There are a total of 43 households in Zhuangzi in Shanbei, and if they are divided into four sheds, they will have one shed and ten households, and those with a small population will be divided into 13 households together.
Xia Qiyue and the patriarch, Li Zheng, Gao Carpenter, An Lihu, Uncle Family, An Laozhuang Family, Lao An Family, and the other five families.
Because there are only three people in Lizheng, Xia Qiyue's family is also small, and there are few carpenters' families, and they are divided into thirteen families here.
Lao An's family was strongly demanding, and he went to ask the official to be assigned here.
Xia Qiyue's face was black at that time, but her six little bodyguards were here, and the official agreed, so she had no choice but to endure it.
The shed is still not as warm as the carriage, Xia Qiyue originally wanted the children to stay in the carriage all the time, after all, the carriage space is still too small, she is afraid that the children will not move, and the development will be affected if they can't stretch their legs and feet.
In the end, the children were let out, but Ke'er and Xuan'er wore thick enough, and their hands and faces were frozen when they came out, but Ling'er couldn't do it, she began to tremble as soon as she got out of the carriage, and her clothes were too thin.
Xia Jiujiu couldn't help but see this, "I'll go find Ke'er's clothes, I just bought a big circle when I bought it, Ling'er should be able to wear it!" ”
"Okay, hurry up and get in the car, get dressed first and get down, Ling'er's wind and cold are not good yet!"
Tossed into the carriage again, Xia Jiujiu found Ke'er's cotton clothes for Ling'er and put them on, and she was still wearing her own tattered clothes outside, but after wearing thick cotton clothes inside, the whole person was warm and not cold.
"Thank you, mother, thank you, aunt..."Ling'er Nuonuo thanked her, and didn't forget to thank Ke'er, "Thank you, Sister Ke'er, for letting me wear this day..."
"Okay, let's hurry up, we've already started to divide the porridge, let's take a bowl and drink a bowl of hot and warm up!" Xia Qiyue touched the heads of several children and hurriedly urged.
"Sister Ling'er, it's good if you're not cold, let me wear my clothes for you!" Ke'er took Ling'er's hand very obediently, and the two little girls walked in front.
Xuan'er, who was watching, shook his head like an adult at a young age and followed behind.
The porridge is not like the sticky ones cooked by Xia Qiyue himself, there is more water, but it is already very good to be able to drink a mouthful of hot one, a bowl of porridge for one person plus a coarse grain bun, although it is cold, but it is still full, it is said that the good man who gave porridge today is still an official, and the official position is not small.
Everyone doesn't care about those, they sincerely thank them when they get the food, and then take it back and eat it.
Compared with being hungry, coarse grain buns are already good things, but Xia Qiyue couldn't swallow them anymore, and seeing that Ling'er ate fragrantly, he simply gave her his coarse grain buns.
"Mother, Ling'er is enough to eat! Eat it yourself! Ling'er looked at the coarse grain bun handed over in front of her, looked up and saw that it was given by her bride, and pushed it back with some flattery.
Originally, she was still thinking about whether to give half of Xuan'er to eat, because at home, she had to hold on to her brother for everything, even if her brother couldn't finish this meal, she had to keep it for the next meal, and whether she could eat enough was no longer within her mother's concern.
But today, the bride handed her all her steamed buns, and she was a little uneasy, as if she was afraid that she would be kicked out by the bride she had just owned if she ate this steamed bun.
"Mother, let's give it to my brother!" Ling'er added.
"Don't give it to me... I'm full! Xuan'er hurriedly interrupted, how could he not see that his mother couldn't eat, although he was not a picky eater, he couldn't eat so much.
Xia Qiyue saw what Xuan'er meant, and laughed evilly, but he still didn't force them, and obediently took it back and took a bite.
Sleeping at night, there is no bed, the ground is directly spread on the mattress to sleep is too cold, fortunately, the carriage has been carrying forage in the summer and July, and it has been brought over and laid a thick layer, and An Youde actually brought the horse in and tied it at the mouth of the shed.
But no one has an opinion, anyway, it doesn't delay their sleep, and it's Xia Qiyue's horse again, so bring it in.
Compared to sleeping in a carriage, the shed must be cold, Xia Qiyue took out all the bedding and laid it, and even let the children take off their shoes and went into the bed, but even this still can't stop the cold shivering in the middle of the night.
Fortunately, the children were replenished along the way, and their resistance was okay, but Ke'er and Xuan'er were not infected with the cold.
But Ling'er couldn't do it, even if she gave her medicine and good things, she still didn't resist, and the fever didn't stop.
When I was woken up in the morning of Xia Qiyue, many people didn't sleep, and the reason was that the child couldn't stand the cold and contracted the wind cold and fever.
But fortunately, the next day, the people who came to the soup kitchen brought the medicine.
After nesting in the shed for a few days, when Ling'er got better, Li Zheng had already taken back the household registration, and the woman couldn't start a household, and the head of the household in Xia Qiyue was An Zichen.
Although there was no news of An Zichen after joining the army, there was no news of his death, so Xia Qiyue listened to Li Zheng's opinion.
In terms of household registration, Ling'er is the eldest daughter, Xuan'er is the second son, and Ke'er is the third daughter.
However, Li Zheng still got her a deed of sale, and the family separation documents were also done.
As soon as these things were implemented, Xia Qiyue's heart opened up a lot, and a stone in her heart finally landed.
She accepted Ling'er for her daughter without An Zichen knowing, and she didn't feel guilty at all, anyway, she raised it herself, since she joined the army, An Zichen has evaporated from the world, she has always been in a state of widowhood, giving birth to her own and raising herself, so now she doesn't need him to come back, it's better not to die or live and not appear, save trouble.
On the same day, the official sent silver and land deeds, one homestead for each household, as for the cultivated land, it can only be cultivated, a man three acres of wasteland, three years later began to pay taxes, women can not get land.
There is no hurry to open up the wasteland, and the cold weather is freezing and there is no work at all, but after getting the title deed of the homestead, everyone began to work on the problem of building their own houses.
I can't go back to my hometown, and my household registration has fallen to this Jiuli Town, and I still have to live another road, so I have to work hard.
In addition to the 300 people in their Shanbei Zhuangzi, the others are all retail households, so the top directly appointed An Shunde as Lizheng, and named their village Baijia Village, since then, Baijia Village in Jiuli Town has entered the household department and was officially established.
Everyone remembers the homestead they occupied, and Xia Qiyue is no exception, taking his younger brother Xia Xinghe all the way to follow the big guy to choose the homestead.
