Chapter 45: Stubborn Donkey
Once the foundation is laid, the house can be built quickly.
The donkey cart of the brick kiln in Chenlou Village was unloaded in the south of the village with red bricks, and some members of Xiaoshantun who noticed Ji Yuanhai's house only knew that Ji Yuanhai was going to build a brick house, and then they all realized it in hindsight.
No wonder, Ji Yuanhai didn't pull the adobe in advance, and directly dug the foundation and began to ram.
On the same day, the bricks were unloaded, the mud and sand were all gone, and the house was built on the same day.
When I went home that day, when the family was eating in the hall, my grandparents, father and mother were obviously a little dissatisfied - you can't spend money like this, it's too wasteful, right?
But the matter has come to this point, Ji Yuanhai's house has already been half up, and it is impossible to stop it.
can only complain about two sentences afterwards.
Mother couldn't help but say a few words of waste, but Ji Yuanhai opened his mouth to analyze the benefits of the brick house.
The brick house is bright and breathable, and it is not afraid of blisters; The adobe house is old, and it may collapse one day when it will be damaged by rainwater.
It's still a brick house to live in, it's safe, and it's better than an adobe house.
"Is the brick house so good?"
After hearing this, my mother was also a little moved: "Yuan Hai, how much money do you have at home?" Can you lend me a little? ”
"Seeing that your brother-in-law's marriage is on the rise, if you can build a brick house, you will definitely be able to get nine out of ten."
Ji Yuanhai tugged at the corners of his mouth, but he didn't hear it, and continued to bow his head to eat.
There is no money, and if there is money, it is not given.
"Yuan Hai, you should say something, even if I borrow this money, it's not that I won't pay you back!" Mother asked.
"I've got to catch some fish after I've eaten." Ji Hai answered the question.
Not again!
How did I give birth to such a stubborn donkey!
The mother was angry and looked at Lu Heling: "Heling, you come!" ”
Lu Heling put down her chopsticks and looked at her, revealing an embarrassed but polite smile: "Mother, I listen to Yuan Hai." ”
These two will be annoying!
The mother lost her appetite and put down her half-pulled head in a huff.
"You're full, aren't you?" Grandma told her, "If you don't want to eat, don't eat it." ”
The mother was depressed and wanted to go back to the East House.
"Brush the bowl and go!" Grandma reminded her.
The mother had to sit down and wait for the dishes to be washed.
……………………………………
Ji Yuanhai went to catch fish after eating, and Lu Heling knew that he would come back soon after catching fish, so he didn't follow.
When Ji Yuanhai came back from catching fish, he passed by Widow Liu's house again.
Wang Xiaohong had already fallen asleep at the door.
Widow Liu is shaking a pu fan to fan Wang Xiaohong to repel mosquitoes.
Seeing that Ji Yuanhai was going home, Widow Liu involuntarily stood up: "Yuanhai ......"
After stopping Ji Yuanhai, she didn't know what she was going to say.
"Yuan Hai, do you want to build a brick house?"
"Well, I'm going to build a brick house." Ji Yuanhai replied, "After the construction is done, we will go out separately." ”
"Oh." Widow Liu responded, "That's good......"
No more words.
If she had no other thoughts, she could get along with Ji Yuanhai normally, and she could joke and talk; But I have a different mind, and before I can say something, I think twice in my heart first, and I become clumsy.
finally remembered something, Widow Liu reminded: "Yuan Hai, you have to be careful." ”
"Today, I saw you building a brick house, and your second uncle gossiped about you to outsiders, saying that your money was all given by your grandfather, saying that you took advantage of it and spent all the money your grandfather had saved all his life."
"The money should have belonged to the three of them as sons, and he also had a share; Your grandfather was eccentric and gave you this grandson. ”
After Ji Yuanhai heard this, he couldn't help but snort coldly.
What a second uncle!
Before, he didn't distinguish between good and bad, gossiping about Ji Yuanhai and watching jokes, Ji Yuanhai was already very tired of him; This time it's good, just idle and talk to outsiders about this ridiculous distribution of property.
You must know that grandpa has always been the fairest to divide the family, he not only complained about Ji Yuanhai, but even Ji Yuanhai's grandfather and his father complained together.
What does it mean to "take your own affairs to make people laugh and talk about them"?
That's it!
And his lewd nature - in a few years, he will be beaten all over the face for hiding and peeking at women going to the dry toilet.
The second aunt Wang Fenglan was made faceless by him, and the two children, Ji Yuanhong and Ji Yuanbing, made the children in the same village laugh at them, fight and scold people all day long, and never study well again.
Even grandpa and grandma were angry and bedridden for several days, dizzy, and no longer had the tough and good body they have now.
This second uncle is really a scourge!
If you have the chance, you have to let him be honest.
"I know, Liu Xianglan, thank you for reminding me." Ji Yuanhai said to Liu Xianglan.
Liu Xianglan thought for a while, and then said: "Your mother was at the entrance of the team department today, chatting with Wang Lao Er and Wang Lao San, and I listened to two sentences, as if I was talking about your brother-in-law and Wang Jinhua." ”
"Prepare for them to meet officially tomorrow."
Ji Yuanhai was a little surprised when he heard this, his mother didn't say anything about it today.
By the way, she said that her brother-in-law has eyebrows when she got married, but she didn't go into details.
The main reason is that Ji Yuanhai's brick house and grandmother's reprimand made her in no mood to speak.
"I don't know about this, thank you so much, Liu Xianglan." Ji Yuanhai said.
"No thanks, you really don't need to thank you, I should thank you well."
Liu Xianglan hurriedly said: "You saved the lives of both of us, I should thank you no matter how I thank you!" ”
"If there is anything in the village, as long as I hear it, I will tell you everything."
"For other things, as long as I can help, I will definitely be willing to help you!"
Ji Yuanhai nodded and asked, "How is eating these days?" The child isn't starving anymore, is he? ”
After hearing this, Liu Xianglan said: "I didn't starve, I could barely eat enough." ”
This is not too true, if she had been generous in her hands, she would not have screamed in the middle of the night when they were hungry.
Ji Yuanhai also guessed, and reached out to untie a silver carp and handed it to her.
"Take it and eat, don't starve the child."
Liu Xianglan shook her head.
Ji Yuanhai said: "Take it! Is the face important, or is the stomach important? ”
Liu Xianglan took the silver carp and kept silent.
"Then I'll go......"
"Don't go yet," Liu Xianglan hurried up, grabbed his arm, and asked in a low voice, "Yuan Hai, don't you think I'm unlucky?" ”
Ji Yuanhai said: "If I feel that you are unlucky, I won't give you fish, and I won't even say anything to you." ”
"If you don't think I'm bad."
Liu Xianglan straightened her chest and stepped forward.
"You...... You...... Again? ”
Cough...... Ji Yuanhai couldn't help but put his hand up, his fingers sinking into Bonei, and carefully gathered together.
Making steamed buns and pinching wontons can't be as flexible as that.
After a while, Widow Liu's breathing was rough, and then she reminded Ji Yuanhai: "I'm unlucky, maybe it's really a man's broom star...... You just have to touch it for a while, and don't pass on the bad luck to you. ”
Ji Yuanhai withdrew his palm, Widow Liu straightened her sweatshirt, and whispered: "Yuanhai, I won't tell anyone about this, don't say it." ”
"It doesn't matter if I make people laugh, you have a clean reputation now."
"Your daughter-in-law is from the city, and if they run away in anger, you won't have a daughter-in-law......"
