Chapter 54 With Chickens and Ducks, Children Have Fun
In less than half an hour, the old house was emptied, and all the household items, pots and pans were moved to the broken yard in the east of the village.
Ye Xiuyan smiled again and came up with an idea to open up the wall between the two small courtyards to form a courtyard.
The home of Ye Meng and Ye Jian brothers is originally a courtyard.
When the family was first separated, Mrs. Li was eccentric, and gave one-third to her youngest son, building a wall to separate them, and it became two families.
Now that Mrs. Li has moved away, she pushed the wall to, sealed the small side door of Ye Jian's house, used the gate, and reintegrated it into a courtyard, and it changed back to the original appearance of the old Ye family.
The two attendants obeyed the order, naturally there was no objection, and with a wave of their arrogant hand, they added another twenty yuan to the men in the village, so that they could start working immediately.
There is money beckoning in front of them, and the men of each family are full of energy, smashing the walls and laying bricks.
In one morning, the Li family has changed greatly and restored its original appearance before the family.
Ye Jian stood in the courtyard, looking at the familiar courtyard that he grew up with and the eight-bucket tall man, and shed tears of excitement.

The yard was there, and the furniture needed to be purchased new, so the two attendants did not wait for the master's orders, had lunch, and drove the mule cart to the county seat to buy goods.
Ye Jian happened to go to the county government to change his household registration, so he walked with the two of them and went to the county seat together in a mule cart.
Wu Juan took the eldest girl and the second sister to clean up the two warehouses and serve as a chicken coop and a duck coop.
With chickens and ducks, there is fun in the children.
Ye Xiuyan cut a few suitable branches and took her younger brothers and sisters to walk through chickens and ducks.
The three little happy ones went crazy, waving branches and running around with chickens and ducks on the banks of the river.
Especially Douding, chasing chickens and ducks with short legs, accidentally fell, didn't cry or make trouble, got up by himself, and continued to play crazy.
One afternoon, rolling in the mud and sand, happy to giggle to himself.

It was dark, and around midnight, the three people who went to the county seat hurried back in a mule cart.
Also coming back was the convoy of the pottery factory. Four horse-drawn carriages loaded with newly purchased household items.
The guys from the wood pottery workshop helped move the new furniture into the house, collected the final payment, and returned to the county seat overnight.
Ye Jian personally came to the side room to thank him, and talked to Lin Jingcheng for a while before leaving.
A busy and fulfilling day has finally passed, and the children have slept peacefully.
Ye Jian and Wu Juan sat in the courtyard with each other, bathed in the moonlight, full of longing for a better future.

With nearly 100 chickens and ducks, the family's life is busy.
The eldest and second girls kicked the chickens out of the chicken coop early in the morning and drove them up the mountain to find food.
Doubao and Sanya were not idle, walking ducks near the reeds in the shallows.
Ye Jian cast nets to catch fish, and in the past, small fish and shrimp were usually released.
Nowadays, there are chickens and ducks, and they will deliberately stay some as feed.
In addition to painting, Ye Xiuyan absorbed spirit stones to cultivate in the name of going into the mountains to pick medicinal herbs.
When my father is not at home, he will also take two ospreys down to the river to fish, and by the way, he will go down to the river to catch a few river mussels and look for pearls.
The chickens and ducks are carefully fed, and the eggs are also very powerful.
Wu Juan cleans the chicken coop every day and can find more than two dozen eggs.
Ducks love to lay eggs in the reeds.
Ye Xiuyan relied on her small cleverness, took advantage of the ducks' inattention, and took away the duck eggs in a slippery manner.
As time went on, there was a surplus of eggs and duck eggs.
Wu Juan and Ye Jian planned to marinate them into salted eggs, pull them in a mule cart, and bring them to the town to sell.
