Chapter 41, Building a house

"The village chief's house?" Xu Jin searched in her mind, "Oh, my house doesn't need to be that big. It's enough to have three rooms, a kitchen, and a toilet."

The village chief's house is an old-fashioned old house, with a dozen or so rooms in the simplest set.

There are currently only three people in the Xiao family, so there is no need to spend that money.

But it is really cheap to build a house in ancient times!Such a large building is only eight taels!

Then wouldn't her request be four or five taels enough?

"Three rooms, how do we build them?" Mrs. Xu asked suspiciously.

Many also said: "Since we want to build, at least we have to build a complete set, not to mention the scale of the village head's house, at least the same as ours. A complete set of houses doesn't matter whether it looks good or not, at least it is safe!" "

It was only then that Xu Jin realized that this place was in ancient times. If she built a modern version of a small suite, wouldn't it be neither fish nor fowl?

As long as she thinks of being watched by the villagers every day... Forget it, let's spend more money!

The house of my natal family is a very simple mud-brick house, which is the same style as most houses in the village. The central room is also called the hall, which is used to worship gods and ancestors and entertain guests. There are two rooms on the left and right of the main room, usually a main room. Room, a side room, this row is like this.In front of the main room is a large patio, which can also be called a yard, to ensure sufficient light for the whole house.There are two rooms on each side of the courtyard, and the south is the gate. Once the gate is closed, it is very safe.

Since the houses here are all facing south, the main houses on both sides of the courtyard are generally called the East Hall and West Hall.There is another room on the south side of the east and west halls.

Xu Jin did the math, and there were eight rooms.

At that time, the three of them will live in three rooms, one will be used as a stove room, and the other will be used as a shower room, so what are the other three rooms for?warehouse?study?guest room?

Thinking that she will soon have her own separate room, Xu Jin instantly feels better.

"Okay, let's follow the style of the house, but we don't want to build mud bricks, which are easy to collapse. We are like the village chief's house, pulling in green bricks from outside."

Many rubbed their hands cautiously, and asked cautiously: "Xiao Jin! Is this what you mean or Ze Yi's meaning? Do you want to go home and discuss it with him?"

Xu Jin waved his hand indifferently, "No need, these things were discussed before coming here, and what I mean is what he means."

"That's it!" Many people had no idea, because they were afraid that the daughter-in-law would make her son-in-law angry by making her own decisions.

Mrs. Xu took her daughter's hand, "If you want me to say build a mud brick building, it will cost a lot of money!"

Xu Jin refused without even thinking about it, "No, no! The mud bricks are prone to collapse in heavy rain, and I don't want to repair the house often. Besides, the blue bricks are easy to take care of, and they look clean and tidy, and they are comfortable. The floor and even the patio will be paved. With red bricks, you are not afraid of stepping on mud all over the house in rainy days."

many……

Xu Wang's...

I'm afraid this girl is going to squander Xiao Laosan's savings!
Not afraid of being beaten to death!

"Xiao Jin..." Mrs. Xu was about to speak earnestly.

As a result, Xu Jin interrupted her excitedly, "Father, then it's settled, when will you have time to take us to the next village?"

Many and Xu Wang looked at each other, come on, there is no need to persuade.

"Don't be so troublesome, I'll send a message to Taohua Village, and Master Yao will naturally come over to discuss matters."

"You don't need to make a trip? That's great!" Xu Jin happily showed her big white teeth.

She hates walking the most.

"Then parents, please be busy, I'm going back." Xu Jin stood up, she had to go back to see how Xiao Zeyi's roe deer meat was handled.

Mrs. Xu said in a muffled voice, "Shouldn't you sit down for a while?"

Xu Jin's refusal was completely defeated by the anticipation on Xu Wang's face!
No matter how she treated the original owner before, she still loves her after all, right?
"Mother, Xiao's family is in the village. If you miss me, go and sit down?"

Xu Wang tilted her head slightly, trying to make the tears flow back, but unfortunately the effect was not good, so she wiped it vigorously regardless.

"Go, mother will go there every now and then, Xiao Laosan, don't try to bully my daughter!"

Hearing this, Duoduo hurriedly gave her a hand, thinking that the more his wife talked, the more shameful she became.

Xu Jin didn't know whether to laugh or cry, "Mother, Xiao Zeyi is reasonable, he won't hit people for no reason, don't worry."

Xu Wangshi nodded, still worried.

Xu Jin was helpless, "I'm leaving, there are still a lot of things waiting at home."

Mrs. Xu nodded again, "Go back, go back! Remember to listen to your son-in-law, and don't disobey him..."

Realizing that Xu Wang's nagging problem was about to be committed, Xu Jin hurriedly quickened her pace.

She didn't breathe a sigh of relief until she got out of the gate of Xu's house and walked a long way. She was really afraid of Mrs. Xu's nagging.

As soon as you go out, your field of vision will be widened.

Since it was the spring plowing season, except for the very old and the young who couldn't help, everyone else went to the field, and the field was a busy scene.

Xu Jin thought: "In Xiaohu Village, only Xiao Zeyi's family is different, right? No wonder they are excluded by everyone!"

On the road, I met a staggering old lady, Xu Jin nodded with a smile and was about to pass by, who would have thought that the old lady would call out her name all at once.

"Is Xiao Jin back?"

Xu Jin stopped, "Yes, Grandma Qi. Where are you going?"

Grandma Qi grabbed Xu Jin's hand and sighed regretfully. "Poor child, you have suffered! Such a good flower, why did you marry Xiao Laosan, that lazy scoundrel!"

Xu Jin silently sympathized with Xiao Zeqi for a second, being hated by an 80-year-old grandma is also a skill.

Grandma Qi pulled Xu Jin and said a lot of regretful words, then carefully taught her how to live, nagging her for at least a quarter of an hour before letting her go, Xu Jin was so scared that she didn't dare to turn her head back once she was free.

She knew that the old man was sympathetic to her and wanted to treat her well, but she couldn't accept this kind of nagging.

Mainly, she had never met such a person in her previous life.

When she got home, only Xiao Mochen was cleaning up the yard, and Xiao Zeyi was nowhere to be seen.

"Where's your brother?" Xu Jin was purely curious.

Xiao Mochen smiled and dropped the broom and came over.

"Sister-in-law, my brother told me to wait for you to come back to tell you that he has gone out to deliver meat, and he will go to the town to sell some of the meat. He will come back later and ask you to lock the door."

Xu Jin didn't believe it at all, "Your brother is not such a careful person!"

Xiao Mochen opened his mouth wide in surprise, then he laughed and said, "Sister-in-law, so you know my brother so well!"

Xu Jin rolled his eyes at him, "Child, you are so easy to be beaten!"

Really, obviously only 13 years old, sometimes the thinking is mature like a little adult.

Xiao Mochen chuckled, not afraid of Xu Jin's appearance at all.

Xu Jin was helpless, the original owner's face looked tender and tender no matter what time it was, without any lethality.

She glared at Xiao Mochen bitterly, and then warned: "Come back and let Xiao Zeyi take care of you!"

Then she turned and went to work.

Although it is necessary to build a house, it will not be completed overnight, and it will not be completed within three to five months.

However, during this period, it is possible to live while building. First, build up the left side, and then push down and re-build the right side after moving in, which also saves you from borrowing a house from someone else’s house.

It's just that this kitchen...it's really time!
Xu Jin was anxious to find a place that would not get in the way and build a small shed first, otherwise it would be ridiculous on a rainy day.

She didn't expect that one day she would live in such a mess, without even a place to cook!
