Back in the 1980s, hiking in the mountains was also a way of life

Chapter 752 Construction is well underway

After building the stove and mixing the cornmeal for steaming buns the next day, everyone left after a simple dinner.

There was nothing to say all night, and in the blink of an eye it was the next day.

In the morning, to be exact, it was 4:5 in the morning, when it was still half dark, the whole family got up, and before o'clock, Shen Wei brought Xiao Laijie over.

Afterwards, the eldest lady Xu Yongfeng and her two daughters-in-law, and the second lady Yao Ping and her daughters-in-law also came over.

However, what was unexpected was that Widow Zhao also came over early with her children.

Of course, considering the situation of Widow Zhao's family at that time, it would be much better for her to come and work early than to stay at home.

Although Wang An's family did not need so many people to help with cooking, as long as she came to work, the mother and daughter could have a full meal this morning.

You know, for people who are always hungry, the temptation of a full meal is absolutely huge, and it can be said to be better than anything else.

It's just two more mouths to feed. For the Wang An family, it's just a matter of seeking something worthwhile.

After all, even the food that Wang An’s dog eats every day is much better than what most people in the village eat.

Although it is ironic to say this, and it makes people feel particularly unbalanced, we have to admit that this is the fact!
After seeing Widow Zhao leading the child into the yard in a very awkward manner, Liu Guilan was stunned at first, but soon she figured out the crux of the problem and immediately said to Widow Zhao:

"Cuiyun is here, hurry up, we are in need of someone to knead the dough, hurry up and wash your hands and go knead the dough."

After arranging things for Widow Zhao, Liu Guilan pointed at Wang Xiaomei, Wang Xiaoli, and Xiaolai and said to Widow Zhao's son with a smile:
"Goushengzi, go take the three of them out to play. We'll eat when the steamed buns are cooked."

Immediately afterwards, a large group of female comrades all got busy.

Some were kneading the dough, some were lighting the fire, some were drying the cabbage, some were cutting the meat. In short, there was no one idle.

Wang Dazhui and Wang An, father and son, began to feed the livestock and poultry at home.

At about 5:, the tofu shop owner drove a donkey cart and delivered the three-plate tofu.

At this time, a group of women had already put the chopped meat, dried cabbage, dried potato chips and other ingredients into the pot and started stewing them.

The big pot meals in this era are basically cornmeal buns or large pancakes, and then a big pot of stewed vegetables is cooked. Except for the effort of washing the vegetables, cooking is not difficult at all.

As soon as the tofu shop owner entered the yard, he was shocked by the things in Wang An's yard: a four-wheeled vehicle, a hand tractor, a track vehicle, and a sidecar. These four things were not common at all in that era, but Wang An's family had all of them.

Therefore, the four words "Oh my god" were always uttered by the tofu shop owner.

Seeing Wang An, the tofu shop owner pointed at the bricks and farm vehicles in the yard, gave Wang An a thumbs up and said:

"Okay, brother. Your family is really prosperous now. At least it's one of the best in DJ County."

Wang An smiled and handed over a cigarette while saying:
"Hahahaha. It's not as serious as you say, brother. Our family is just a nobody."

The tofu shop owner took the cigarette and said seriously:
"Really, brother, I'm not kidding. I go door to door every day in the western towns of DJ County. There's almost nothing I don't know. It's certain that no one is living as well as you are."

Wang An pulled out a big unity from his pocket and handed it over, saying with a smile:

"Haha, is it really that weird? Well, brother, here's the tofu money for tomorrow's meal." It's true, although what the tofu shop owner said may not be accurate, it is not far from the truth.

While waiting for the women to pick up the tofu, the tofu shop owner suddenly said to Wang An mysteriously:

"Brother, is there any money-making business that needs errands? I can't go out all day, so just let me stay out of the way."

When Wang An heard this, he was stunned for a moment. Mainly because Wang An really couldn't understand why the tofu shop owner suddenly said such a thing.

You have to know that since Wang An was reborn, apart from supporting Qiao Xiaohu, which was considered doing business, Wang An has not done any business at all.

Seeing Wang An's confusion, the tofu shop owner said with an expression of "I know everything":

"Everyone in the county says that the 'madman' has made a fortune. I have been to your village several times, and the people in your village also say so. So I think you must be doing some big business or making friends with some important people. Otherwise, I know that money can't buy these things."

As he spoke, the tofu shop owner pointed to the trolley and the four-wheeled cart again.

Only then did Wang An realize that he had become famous in this area, which was something he had never expected.

Seeing that all the tofu had been picked up, Wang An said politely and casually:

Read more latest popular novels at 6.9*shuba!

"There's no business to be had. I was just out in the mountains. Hey, brother, come into the house for a while. The meal will be ready soon. Eat something and then go back."

People are afraid of being famous, just like pigs are afraid of being fat. Wang An didn't want to talk about it anymore. Besides, what business does Wang An have? It was obviously all made up by a bunch of idiots.

Hearing that Wang An didn't even respond, the tofu boss felt embarrassed to continue talking, and quickly waved his hand and said:
"Then I will not go up to the house. I will bring you tofu tomorrow morning."

As he spoke, the tofu shop owner drove away on his donkey cart.

Looking at the back of the tofu shop owner, Wang An couldn't help but ponder. Fortunately, he listened to the advice and decided not to build a second floor. Otherwise, the news of his sudden wealth would have spread directly beyond DJ County!
Damn, it's just like this every day.

Just as Wang An was daydreaming, a group of women comrades had already cut a plate of tofu and put it into the pot.

Liu Guilan called Wang Andao:

"Xiao An, hurry up and go to the homestead to set off some firecrackers and invite everyone over for dinner."

In fact, eating is only one aspect, it can also be regarded as a ceremony to start work, or it may be more accurate to call it "good luck in the new work"!
It’s just that many superstitious things are not allowed these days, so it’s easier to just set off firecrackers.

To put it bluntly, it is to bring bad luck so that people can be safe and sound during the construction without any bad things happening.

The main thing is that building a house is never a trivial matter. Many aspects are involved, and it is a great joy for every family.

How many times can a person build a house to live in during his lifetime?
After hearing Liu Guilan's instructions, Wang An agreed, picked up the sack of firecrackers and a shovel, and walked towards the residential land in the west.

Soon, two strings of 1-bang Red Earth firecrackers and 16 double-kick firecrackers were lit one after another by Wang An.

After the firecrackers rang, Wang An dug a few shovels of soil on the homestead, and the whole ceremony was over!
