My village can't be like this

Chapter 37 Build a new home for the Xiaohu brothers (seeking collection and recommendation)
"Dad, the kennel outside can't hold the three of them anymore. We have to give them the whole kennel again."

After dinner, the family is by the fire. Although it is spring, the temperature is still a little low at night, which is called spring cold.

In just half a year, the three Xiaohu brothers have grown into big dogs, each of them is majestic, but their physique is a bit big, and they are all as high as Zhang An's knees.

When we made nests before, they were all young, each weighing only one or two catties, but now it’s no longer possible, and the cabin can’t even fit.

"Forget it, don't waste your time. There is still sand in the house. Tomorrow, go to the town and bring some bags of cement back. Let your second uncle come over and help build a small side house, and let them live in it."

Zhang Jianguo thought about it, and it would take a lot of space to make a wooden house, so let's just build a new house for them.

Early the next morning, Zhang An led the family's big black horse and went out to the town.

Walking to the entrance of the village, Zhang Anfei got on his horse.

Now the horse didn't carry anything, and people could sit on the horse frame, so Zhang An rode directly on it.

It's just that the iron frame under the buttocks is a bit hard, sticking to the buttocks.

So Zhang An didn't let the big black horse run, otherwise Zhang An's ass would suffer today.

In this way, Zhang An rode down from the mountain road and walked into the asphalt road.

Along the way, you can see cars coming and going on the road, but the number is not too many.

The merchant who sells cement is right at the entrance of the town, so Zhang An doesn't have to go into the town.

If many people here do business, they will build at least two floors, with people living on the top, and a door-front room for loading goods below.

Such as selling coal, selling reinforced concrete and so on.

I asked the boss, the current cement is [-] tons, and a pack costs ten yuan. Zhang An didn't know how much to buy, but in the end Zhang Jianjun said that three or four packs would be enough.

On the wide asphalt road, one person and one horse walk leisurely.

For the big black horse, the bags of cement on its back are not very heavy.

When I walked to the fork in Panshan Road, I met several people who came to ask for directions.

"Brother, please ask me how to get to the Changqing River in Hongyan Town. We took several fork roads to get in..."

There were a total of four people on the opposite side, and they drove a small bread.

In recent years, the price of such a van is not generally expensive.

"You are going to the Changqing River. You have to go up this winding mountain road, and then there is a dirt and rock fork in the fourth fork. After turning in there, go straight down and you will be able to see it. How many of you What are you doing over there..."

Zhang An enthusiastically showed the way to several passers-by.

"We are all here to fish. We don't have any hobbies at ordinary times, but we like this addiction. We heard that there is a big river here, so we came to have a look."

Zhang An chatted with a few people, and the other party handed Zhang An a cigarette.

Zhang An refused with a smile, he has never smoked in his life.

Through conversations with a few people, Zhang An knew that these people were very addicted fishermen.

Sure enough, fishermen are rich, and that set of equipment is not cheap, and they need a car to go fishing far away.

Of course, this may be a minority, most people take trains and buses.

The next few people knew that Zhang An's family was from Changqing Village, so they discussed with Zhang An later to see if Zhang An's family could provide them with lunch.

Zhang An smiled and agreed, this is nothing, anyway, my mother is going to cook today, so I will cook more. Of course, people don't eat for free, they are paid.

In this era, most people's conditions are not good, so how can those who don't know let you go to the house to eat and drink for free.

So people also know how to deal with the world. If I give you money, you can help me to make a warm meal, and we will be very grateful.

This is already commonplace for them. They often go fishing in the mountains, and then spend money to eat at nearby households.

There is something even more outrageous in later generations, that is, there is a news on the Internet that a fisherman went fishing in the mountains, and then someone in a nearby village held a banquet. After he went to take a gift money, he ate for three days.

This is convenient and cost-effective for them. A table of hot dishes costs 200 yuan for three days.

Every meal time, you can go when you hear the horn in the village.

Until the end of the meal, the host did not know this person.

When Zhang An came down from Shiyakou, he looked from a distance and found the positions of several people.

They parked the car on the valley field in the village, and they were fishing in the reed marsh where Zhang An had collected duck eggs.

Carrying the cement into the yard, the second uncle and the old man have already dug the foundation for the new kennel.

Although there are only three dogs living here, this cannot be saved, otherwise what will happen if it collapses.

Then I told Wang Fang what happened today, and if I heard that I could make money, I would definitely not refuse.

The walls at home still use the stones left over from the last time the wall was built, and there are still a pile in the yard, so there is no need to go to the quarry to pull them again.

In this way, Zhang An worked as a small laborer mixing ashes, and Zhang Jianguo's brothers were in charge of building walls.

Building a wall with stones is a technical test, unlike using bricks, just align them.

Some parts of the stone have to be knocked out with a hand hammer and leveled, and then you have to look at it when you build it, so that the walls cannot be full of stone corners and corners.

But this is not difficult for the second uncle, after all, the second uncle has been in this business for so many years.

Father Zhang Jianguo was a little slower, but he was still neatly built.

Because there is no need to build high, half of the work was completed by noon.

It happened that Wang Fang in the house called for dinner, so Zhang An went to the river and called some fishing brothers to eat.

Zhang An saw that there were goods in several households, and it seemed that they all got something.

"The food at home is ready, let's eat first, brothers."

Zhang An said that the few people stopped the poles in their hands, and it was already noon before they knew it, and they were really hungry.

For lunch, Wang Fang was quite willing, and made a table of dishes, three meat and four vegetables, and a soup.

The appearance of the few people just eating was the same as when Li Hongbin came to eat.

"Brother, this is Xilin, isn't it, darling, there are also in this big river?"

Several people looked at the steamed fish cooked by Wang Fang on the table, and they were conquered after taking a bite.

"Yes, it's the fine scale fish in our mountains. There are also a few in this big river. They are basically washed down from the mountains, not many."

The few people were happier now, but they didn't see any slender fish after fishing for several hours, and they didn't bring any bait for this mouth.

Originally, they wanted to know how Zhang An caught the fish, but in the end Zhang An said that he caught it with a net, and they gave up.

After a meal, I didn't eat much meat, but I almost ate enough vegetables.

The main reason is that the vegetables at home are grown by Zhang An with spring water in the space, and they are delicious.

It was the first time for them to eat such a delicious meal. They had eaten in big restaurants in the city before, but they didn't taste like this.

In the end, everyone looked at each other, and everyone paid Wang Fang ten yuan for the meal ticket.

Wang Fang felt a little overwhelmed, so she glanced at Zhang An, and after Zhang An gave him a look, he accepted it.

The food at home is not bad, so ten yuan per person is not expensive.

After the meal, everyone sat in the yard to rest, and a few of them also chatted with Zhang Jianguo and the two brothers, and everyone who came and went got to know each other.

The leader is Wang Zhi, the leader of the group, the one who asked Zhang An for directions.

Several people's families are in business, so they have some money, so they have time to run here and there.

After a break, several people went back to continue their fun, and Zhang An also started to work.

After one afternoon, the new home of the Xiaohu brothers has been basically completed.

Zhang An found the remaining wood in the house, and cut it to a suitable length.

Get the roof covered before dark.

When the sun was about to set, Wang Zhi and the others also called it a day, and brought some fish they caught to Zhang An's house, intending to give some to them.

They will definitely take away the big fish, because the big river is not a fish pond specially fed by people, and they can exchange fish for money.

They can only be pulled to the town to sell to restaurants or other places.

Zhang An naturally didn't accept the fish they gave, and even showed them the fish in his small fish pond.

These few people couldn't let go of their eyes.

There are a lot of slender fish wandering in it. What puzzles them the most is that the slender fish that should be in the turbulent river in the mountains actually look a little leisurely in this small pond.
