Lingquan, a peasant girl: the bully in the whole family is just me

Chapter 16 The Family Are Bullies

Li Zheng had no choice but to bite the bullet and "sacrifice" his two sons to help. For others, he couldn't really give up his old face for the Yao family.

How unreasonable!It was rare for Yao Xiangbei to move closer to a good person, and the villagers slapped him in the face!

When Yao Lan finished teasing Yan Yuanhao, the father and son rushed back with fierce faces.

"Father, third brother, what happened?" Yao Lan's little heart was pounding violently seeing the two of them fighting with each other, don't go to trouble the village again.

It's really a disaster, the Tang family has the largest number of people with the surname Tang, and the Yao family can afford to buy the land. Lizheng is helping out, and there are two people from the Lizheng family, so it's not easy for father and son to persecute the Tang family.

There are thirteen households with scattered surnames, and now seven households have agreed to help the Yao family build a house, which can be regarded as gathering manpower, and they will start work on an auspicious day after Liu San comes to visit the land tomorrow.

Yao Lan didn't think that her father and brother nodded after negotiating with others in a friendly manner, perhaps they were threats and intimidation again.

"Father, you can't do this..."

Yao Xiangbei put his hands on his hips, "I gave money, and I didn't treat them badly!"

Yao Lan said, "That's what I want from you."

Yao Sanshun still held his breath in his heart and said: "Don't listen to your brother-in-law in everything. Sometimes if you don't be a little ruthless, people won't listen to you at all."

Yao Lan was speechless, why did people listen to you?But it's really hard to ask people in the village to build a house without asking for help. She still wants to build the house as soon as possible, so that the wages can be paid more.

"Father, which families did you invite?" Yao Lan still thought it would be better to apologize first and be more modest.

Don't!

Among the four tyrants of Yao Village, Miss Yao, who is born with supernatural powers, is actually the first one. She eats and drinks for nothing in every family and has already reached the point where people are scared. It's hard to feed yourself, how can you raise such a fat girl.

When the seven families saw Yao Lan appearing, they hid everything they could eat as if facing an enemy.

In the front, Yao's father and son threatened, and in the back, Yao Lan said good things, didn't they all want them to help Yao's build a house?

Reluctant in my heart, and unwilling in my mouth.

Building a house is hard work. If you really want to steal and play tricks, you can't be like others, right?

I observed a few families, and they all opened up various shapes of wasteland along the road that thousands of times of feet walked out, and then built houses on the edge of their own land at the foot of the mountain. It looks like it's still sparse.

The Yao family didn't have any land before, so naturally they didn't care about farming, but Yao Lan really cared.

"Brother Ang, if three people can come to your family to build a house, our Yao family will not only pay the wages, but also help your family water the land this summer." Yao Lan gave a better condition.

In summer, rice grains need a lot of water. Whether the weather is good or not, we have to go to the river to fetch water and come back to irrigate the fields. However, the weather is not so good. If the weather is bad, not to mention the effort, the sun often burns the skin and flesh. matter.

"You watered our house?" Wu Ben didn't believe it. No one in their family wanted to go, and they wanted to go to the three brothers. The Yao family really went too far.

Yao Lan said: "Our Yao family has nothing else. Strength is the first in the village. Building a house is just to get more people. Watering is different. If you have strength, you can walk fast."

It seems to be the case, but will the Yao family keep their promise?

Yao Lan really understands the helplessness of her father and brother, the reputation is too low, no matter how good the terms you offer, people don't believe you are worthless?

"Brother Ang, I won't talk about things far away."

Dissatisfaction can be seen on Wu Ben's dark face—is the Yao family ashamed to talk about things far away?
"Let's just say that in the future, our family bought that piece of land, and the land on the other side of the road was also bought by our family. In the future, you will have to pass through our house to water the land and carry water. You say..." Yao Lan felt that the threat was not good enough. Must use violence.

say what?Say I won’t help your family with work, and I’m not allowed to leave your house when I go to the river to fetch water?

It's even worse than that father and son!They're all bullies.

Wu wanted to get angry, but he and Yao Erhe had fought before, they were not rivals at all, and Yao Lan was the fiercest brother and sister.

It's really not easy if you love me, Yao Lan just pretended that the other party wanted to open it up, "Brother Wu has no objection, so it's decided, we will make bricks tomorrow, and dig the foundation when our family has a good day."

Wu Ben felt like he was about to vomit blood.

"Don't worry, there will be wages, and I will help your family irrigate this summer." Whether people believe it or not, Yao Lan still emphasized her promise.

Wu Ben didn't believe it, and neither did the following families, but there was nothing he could do. The Yao family and his son were not easy to mess with, and Yao Lan couldn't afford to mess with it, so he had to accept his fate.

As for the two families that are far away from the new home, Yao Lan didn't go again, as long as the people from these families arrived, plus the people from her own family and Lizheng's family, it would be enough.

In such a daze, it took until dark to finally get things done.

The next day Yao’s family started making mud bricks. It’s not difficult to make mud bricks. They dug a hole by the side of the house to get the yellow mud, and then mixed it with mortar and rice straw to make mud. Stir it as evenly as possible, and wait until the mud is half dry. When it is time, it is vigorously thrown into a wooden mold, beaten and compacted to remove excess mud, and then the mold is separated from the mud. After drying, it is a mud brick.

The house where the family lived was built by Yao Xiangbei brick by brick. Now that the number of houses built has increased and the number of people working has also increased, it is not too difficult. When Liu San brings people over, The ground has been covered with large swaths of mud bricks.

"Uncle Liu." Yao Lan rubbed the mud in her hand, and made sticks of mud, before going to greet Liu San.

Liu San came to see the land, no matter how good the blueprint is, it depends on the terrain, and soon Yao Lan felt that it was right to find an "expert".

She originally thought of building a house on an open lot, but Liu San suggested that the backyard be built on the edge of a mountain that is a little higher, and the gate and front yard be built on flat ground. It is better to enclose a piece of land later to raise chickens.

Although the Yao family does not farm or raise chickens, maybe in the future?Yao Lan thinks this idea is very good, it not only saves space, but also has some characteristics.

Yao Xiangbei doesn't accept special features. The house he wants is to be flat, and it can't be up and down at home. Therefore, Liu San's suggestion can't be implemented in the end. He can only determine the final location of the house, according to the drawings. flat.

The working families were taken aback. They only knew that the Yao family planned to build 21 houses. They didn't expect to have so many yards and occupy such a large area, but they were going to be on par with the people in the city?

How much work does it take to build such a big house?
