Crossing the wasteland: Farming and peasant girls can't be provoked

Chapter 16 Building a New Home

The village head Wang Xuhuai thought for a while when he heard that the young master in front of him was about to settle in their village, and said, "I don't know where the master Chu is from, and why he moved here?"

Jing Yi knew that she had to make up a reasonable and sympathetic story for herself.She had already thought about it.She heard some gossip on the road before, so let's borrow it now.

Jing Yi sighed and said: "This is my sad thing, since the village chief asked, I will tell you.

My family has practiced medicine for generations, and opened a local medical clinic, which is considered a little famous.I grew up holding medical books since I was a child.In my father's generation, my father's medical skills and understanding are much better than my uncle's.My grandfather had the idea of ​​focusing on training my father.

This aroused my uncle's dissatisfaction, coupled with the instigation of people with malicious intentions, my uncle and my father almost turned against each other.

Later, when my father was buying medicinal materials, he encountered robbers and was seriously injured. He died soon after.My grandfather couldn't bear the blow and was distraught, and soon passed away due to excessive grief.

Without the protection of my grandfather, my uncle drove me and my mother out of the house.I have long suspected that my father's death was not simple, and I was also afraid that my uncle would harm my mother and me again, so we had to hide our names and go away, and that's why we came here. "

Jing Yi sketched out for the village head a picture of grievances and hatred between a rich family fighting for property, and portrayed herself and her mother as tragic victims, which could arouse the village head's sympathy.

She said that her medical skills are also to increase her bargaining chips.People who are good at medicine are very popular nowadays.

Sure enough, after listening to Jing Yi's story, both the village head and his wife showed sympathy.When Wang Xuhuai heard about Jing Yi's medical skills, he also made up his mind.

If there is a doctor living in their village, wouldn't it be much more convenient to see a doctor in the future, instead of going all the way to the town?
Thinking of this, Wang Xuhuai said: "Mr. Chu's experience is really sympathetic. In this way, since Mr. Chu wants to settle in our village, I welcome it. When you have time, you can go to the county government to register."

When Jing Yi heard that it was done, she said: "We are staying at an inn in the county seat now. It depends on when the village chief has time."

Wang Xuhuai said flatly: "It's not too late for this matter. Didn't you come here in a carriage? Then let's go to the county seat to apply for household registration today. By the way, do you want to build a house? I think you can measure out the foundation together, and then The title deed was also issued."

Jing Yi was very happy when she heard that, it seems that she didn't give this gift for nothing.Immediately, Jing Yi followed the village head to the village to see the foundation.In the end, Jing Yi chose a three-acre foundation on the edge of the village and paid the money directly.

There are mountains and water around Yunxi Village, and the environment is very good. The foundation she chose is not far from a river.

Because it was a bit late for the foundation selection, Jing Yi and the village chief made an appointment to meet in the county seat tomorrow, and go to the county government office to go through procedures such as household registration and land deeds.Jing Yi said that he would send a carriage to pick up the village head tomorrow.

Wang Xuhuai is also very satisfied with Jingyi's thoughtfulness.

The next day, Jing Yi and the village chief had a meeting at the county government office, and quickly completed the household registration and land deed after spending more than a dozen vehicles of money.From now on, they will be from Yunxi Village.

Jing Yi personally sent the village chief back to Yunxi Village, and discussed with the village chief about building a house.Jing Yi asked the village chief for advice on future neighborhood relations, and hired some strong laborers in the village to help build the house. She also asked the village chief to introduce her to several masters with good house building skills.

The villagers are of course willing to have wages to earn.And I heard that the new Mr. Chu is a doctor, and the villagers all want to establish a good relationship, so that it will be convenient for him to see a doctor in the future.

Jing Yi is not afraid of crowds, as more people build houses faster.

Jing Yi drew blueprints for her house, and built it according to the kind of courtyard she had seen in the north before.There are three main rooms, and side rooms are built on both sides of the main room.Wing rooms are built on the east and west sides of the yard, as well as kitchens and toilets.

She felt that the population of the family was simple, and the main room and the wing room were enough to live in, and only two rooms were planned to be built in the inverted house in the south.She plans to use it as a place to see patients in the future.

After all, the county seat is far away from Yunxi Village, so Jing Yi and his family moved to live in an inn in Huidong Town, which is closer to Yunxi Village.Then Jing Yi left her mother and Qiao Yan to rest at the inn, and asked Qiao Hong to follow her to Yunxi Village every day in a carriage.She also intends to train Qiao Hong and let him get in touch with more things.

Jing Yi gave the blueprints to the masters that the village chief helped find, and asked the masters to build the house according to her drawings.

Although Huizhou Mansion is located at the southern tip of Jin State, it is still relatively cold in winter, Jing Yi thinks it is better to build a kang.

Burning charcoal for heating is the most used in this era, but putting a charcoal basin in the house is not good for the air, and it is easy to be poisoned by carbon monoxide, so she plans to build a ground dragon in the main room, and build a heated kang in the two bedrooms.There are also ground dragons and heated kangs in the rooms where people live in the wing rooms.

For this reason, she also plans to build a row of small houses that are not very wide at the back of the main house, so that a stove room, shower room, toilet, etc. can be built.It is also convenient to boil the bath water in winter, and the bath will not be very cold.

There are four rooms in the wing room built with heated kang, and a small kitchen room for heating kang and earth dragon. Two rooms can be used as a small kitchen room.When the weather is cold, you can use the big pot in the stove to boil water for cooking, and you can also save firewood by burning the kang.

With the kang, it should be warmer when you sleep at night in winter without burning a charcoal basin.

In this day and age, Jingyi doesn't know if there is a kang. Anyway, she asked the old master who built the house, but they don't know.

The old man who built the house was very interested in Jing Yi's description of the kang, and he also thought it was a very good idea.

The house started to be built, and many villagers came to work, and Jingyi paid by the day.

Jing Yi also asked someone to order furniture, mainly wardrobes, tables and chairs, boxes, screens and so on.Jingyi also drew some furniture by himself and asked people to follow suit.After the house is built and furnished, they can go in, which will not delay their moving.

Jing Yi, a strong laborer who helped in the village, did not take care of the food and paid more wages, which made the villagers happier.

The team brought by the master builders of the house has people who cook for themselves, so Jing Yi doesn't have to worry about it, as long as they pay more wages.In many places, Jingyi personally guided, mainly building the kang, earth dragon, toilets and bathrooms.

The toilet that Jingyi wants to build is rebuilt according to the future style. It can be flushed and is much cleaner than the dry toilet.The same is true for the bathroom, and it is more convenient to leave a sewer.Given this condition, Jing Yi certainly hopes that her life will be more convenient and comfortable.

Because of the high salary Jing Yi paid, many people in the village came to help.In this way, more people build houses, and the houses are built very quickly. The main body of the house is built in less than a month.

Jing Yi sighed in her heart that there are so many people and so much strength, the speed of building a house is fast enough.They can also move into their new home and settle down as soon as possible.
