The group pets the little fisherman, she has a lot of happy events

Now, the two sons and eldest grandson of the old village chief have also been forcibly drafted into the army, leaving only the younger grandson who is less than 13 years old and three unengaged granddaughters left in the family.

With all the men gone, it is difficult for girls to find a suitable family to marry.

Such a beautiful yellow flower girl, staying at home and wasting her time, may not be able to find a good family in this life, so she will live alone all her life.

Mrs. Gu came to the gate of the old village chief's house. Thinking of the situation of his family, she sighed deeply again.

Niu Xiufang, the eldest daughter-in-law of the old village chief, is a woman with great strength and fierce personality. She is quite a lady and is daring to act.

She understood Mrs. Gu's purpose, and immediately expressed her stance that she would gather people and promise to help their family repair their house before winter.

Mrs. Gu was overjoyed and patted her heart and said that as long as everyone in the village, male, female, old or young, is willing to help, everyone will be paid ten cents a day.

Hearing that there was ten cents, the old village chief's two hairpin-age granddaughters were moved, and his 12-year-old grandson also rushed to help.

Mrs. Gu's trip was worthwhile and the matter was settled that day. She gave Niu Xiufang three taels of silver as a deposit, and her family helped purchase bricks and tiles and recruit manpower.

Niu Xiufang also had a lively and energetic temperament, and she did what she was told. She took people to the town the next day and bought back the bricks, tiles, and wood she needed that afternoon.

Mrs. Gu was careful and asked someone to go to the town again and bought a large amount of rice, flour, grains and oil, as well as radishes and cabbage.

If someone is working at home, they must provide food and drink. This is an unwritten rule for helpers in each village.

She thought that winter was coming soon, the roads would be slippery due to snow, and the road to town would be difficult, so she took this opportunity to stock up on the food and vegetables she needed for the winter, so she bought a lot of them.

One day's wages were ten cents, and the women in the village were very active.

Niu Xiufang led the team, accompanied by more than a dozen people, and went to the town together. They rented Aunt Cao's mule cart and bought rice, flour, grain, oil, vegetables and radishes all at once, and piled them in the small courtyard of Mrs. Gu's house. The pile became as high as a hill.

The old village chief will look at the weather and say that it has been sunny and windy in the past few days and there will be no rain, which is perfect for building a house.

Niu Xiufang just went ahead and started construction under the guidance of an experienced old mason in the village.

Mrs. Gu's old house is in disrepair and is in danger of collapse.

Walls need to be strengthened, roofs need to be renovated, windows need to be repaired.

A dozen women worked in an orderly manner under the command of the old mason.

In addition to not being as strong as men, mixing mud, filling tiles, painting walls and plugging leaks, and working meticulously, even carpentry work is no worse than that of men.

Mrs. Gu was filled with joy and energy when she saw it. She took a few familiar women to work in the kitchen and cook for everyone.

Liu Cuiya has a child to take care of and can't help much. She often walks along the river bank with her daughter in her arms.

It's a coincidence that every time the mother and daughter come to the shore, they never come back empty-handed.

There are also many varieties picked up.

Carp, grass carp, loach, eel, sturgeon, crab and lobster are of different sizes and types.

Liu Cuiya was so happy that she couldn't close her mouth from ear to ear.

The people in the village were also surprised, and the children were even more careless. They followed the mother and daughter happily, helping to pick up fish and shrimps, and had a great time.

With the fish picked up by Liu Cuiya, the food cooked by Mrs. Gu has been improved to a higher level, and she has fish soup every day.

The women are even more energetic and work non-stop from morning to night.
