Chapter 118: I want to build a house
When Shen Ruoqing got home, he saw Mrs. Ji looking happy.
Shen Ruoqing was relieved, it seemed that the ginseng was sold for a good price.
"Good baby, do you know how much that ginseng sells for?" Mrs. Ji saw Shen Ruoqing coming back, and pulled her into the house to talk.
Mrs. Ginseng Ji was handed over to Dalong to sell, and Dalong was sold to Brother Biao under the command of Shen Ruoqing, and the price was naturally not less.
Shen Ruoqing was very supportive, pretending to be puzzled and asked, "Mom, how much does this have to sell?" If you don't say anything, it's a hundred, right? ”
"Good baby, I told you that I sold this amount! Two thousand dollars! Mrs. Ji was overjoyed, "My mother will keep it for you, and keep it for you as a dowry!" ”
Now who can have two thousand dollars as dowry money?
A bride price of 180 yuan can marry a wife, and this money can marry 20 wives. Her good baby has 2,000 yuan by her side, and when the time comes, she will save some tickets to buy her some sewing machines or something to dowry, and she will definitely be able to marry into a wealthy family in the city.
"Mom, I don't want this money as dowry money, the earthen house in the family is broken, or let's use this money to build a new house, Shen Hanwen and Shen Hanwu and Shen Yun and Shen Xue have also grown up, and it will be inconvenient to live in another house in the future, and Hanxi and Shen Yin, they will also grow up in the future, it is better to make the house bigger, so it is convenient and comfortable to live in."
Shen Ruoqing didn't take out the ginseng to let Mrs. Ji save the dowry money for herself, besides, how can she have her own rich flowing oil, let her brothers live a miserable haha, and still live in a leaky earthen house?
"Mom, I've thought about it, with this money, we will go to build a big brick house, build fourteen bedrooms, and leave one for the fourth brother's family, so that when the fourth brother comes back, it will be easy to live, and the toilet will be repaired, let's repair the toilet in the city, and the dry toilet at home will be eliminated."
Every time Shen Ruoqing went to the dry toilet, he mustered up great courage, and the toilet at home should have been changed a long time ago.
"It's going to cost a lot of money." Mrs. Ji frowned, if she wants to build so many rooms, and she has to build a blue brick and tile house, then there will be no two thousand yuan.
"Good baby, this money should be used as your pressure box money, the house has been rented for so long, and I am used to it, and it will be too late to renovate the house when the family saves money in the future, and it will be good to build two more earthen houses when the time comes." Mrs. Ji also wants to live in a big house, but without this money, how can her good baby marry a good family?
"Mom, you just listen to me, I don't need so much dowry, if my husband takes a fancy to me in the future because I have so much dowry, it won't be true to me. Or the problem of housing at home, we must solve it first. And Mom, didn't you say I earned the money? You should listen to my assignment. Since you say it's mine, then I can use it as I want, I just want to change the house for my family. ”
"You, you're just so good-hearted, you think about your brothers in everything, and you don't think much about yourself. You have to think about it, this money is used to make a house for the family, and when you get married in the future, there will be no share of yours. Mrs. Ji sighed and said with a straight face.
Shen Ruoqing got into Mrs. Ji's arms: "Mom, I've thought about it, I'll take it to get a new house for the family, you can't just take care of me, there is no new house at home, so how can Shen Hanxi marry a wife when he grows up." ”
"That's his business, could it be that he's a big man and wants my grandmother to worry about it? No matter what, his parents are worried. If he can't marry a daughter-in-law, it can only prove that he is not capable. Mrs. Ji snorted twice, "But good baby, then you don't need to build so many fourteen bedrooms, right?" Sooner or later, all the girls in the family will get married. It's a waste of time for those rooms to be empty in the future......"
Shen Ruoqing also straightened his face now: "Mom, what are you talking about, is it possible that when I get married in the future, you won't leave me an empty house and let me go home to live?" ”
"How so? Your room is definitely going to be well kept. ”
"That's it, Mom, you can't favor one over the other, and I married from our family, if others see our house so dilapidated, they will look down on us in their hearts, make a better house, and I will have face when I marry in the future, isn't it?"
"Like, there is some truth to it." Mrs. Ji was confused by Shen Ruoqing's words.
"But good baby, if you want to build so many blue brick houses, but this brick is not easy to approve."
To build so many rooms, you have to build another hall and a toilet, and Shen Ruoqing also wants a bath room, which requires a lot of bricks.
Shen Ruoqing almost forgot that the things now are not so easy to buy, according to Mrs. Ji, the brick house really can't be built.
"So what to do, where did the bricks in our village come from?"
"In fact, the Red Flag Brigade has a brick kiln, but without pimps, it can't pull so many bricks. There are too many materials for our family, and even if Captain Tang comes forward, he won't be able to get many bricks. Mrs. Ji shook her head, "If you really can't build a stone house, it's good to carry the stones from the quarry, it's just a matter of effort, most of the people in our village build stone houses." ”
In fact, Mrs. Ji also had the idea of building a stone house before, but Mrs. Ji wanted to keep the money in her hand for Shen Ruoqing, so she had no money left to build a house.
Compared with the stone house, Shen Ruoqing still wants to live in a brick house, and if he wants to build it, he can build it better.
"There's no urgency in this matter, there is a brick kiln in the Red Flag Brigade, right? I'll go to the Red Flag Brigade this week to see if I can get bricks. ”
Mrs. Ji knew Shen Ruoqing's temperament, and she didn't say anything to dissuade her, but just nodded.
"Mom, what about the second sister-in-law?" Shen Ruoqing asked.
The Wang family stayed back at their parents' house, and they took Shen Hanxi with them, and I don't know if the Wang family will say anything outside.
When he came to the county seat, Shen Ruoqing deliberately put all the extra things in the house into the space, for fear that the Wang family would make trouble.
"Hmph, since she wants to go back to her parents' house to live, let her go back to her parents' house to live, and our family has also saved one person's rations. I don't believe it, I can't cure her. Mrs. Ji meant that, obviously she didn't want Shen Xiangnan to call the Wang family back.
"I'm not dead yet, I'm starting to worry about the family's money, if I'm not there in the future, what will she have to be like a demon? Just let her go home for a while, and our house is clean and clean. ”
After discussing, Mrs. Ji came out to cook for Shen Ruoqing.
In fact, Su Jieru was already frying the meal, and when Dalong got the money back, he also got back a few catties of meat, Shen Ruoqing liked to eat the braised pork made by Su Jieru very much.
Of course, eating braised pork is accompanied by white rice, anyway, no one in the county town saw anything, Shen Ruoqing asked Mrs. Ji to make fine grains all the time, and even took Shen Xiangbei's family with a lot of light.
Of course, Mrs. Ji knocked Shen Xiangbei and told him to close his mouth tightly.
