Chapter 287 I only have you in my heart

The brothers and sisters were all lucky and were drawn at the front in the order of draw, so it was their turn to have their house built in a few days. Xia Chan didn't want to have the same layout as other people in the village, so he took his own house design drawings to the captain of the construction team and told him his requirements.

The construction team was hired by Grandpa Xiao and Grandma Xiao, and Grandpa Xiao and Grandma Xiao naturally gave them instructions, so they accepted all of Xia Chan's requests and only raised points that were unreasonable.

After all, Xia Cicada is not a professional, so it is better to listen to the opinions of professionals.

With so many people, the house was built quickly. The kangs in the old houses were all in good condition, so there was no need to build a new one. Only the house built by Jin Pengyuan did not have a kang, so a new one needed to be built. His brothers also built a big kang for it.

There used to be four stone houses on the hillside, and after they were completed, they became five large blue brick and tile houses.

The five houses formed a fan shape. Standing at the gate and looking inside, on the left, that is, the side close to the mountain, are the homes of Xia Bin and Xia Chan. To the front is Zhou Qizhi's home. Then, directly opposite the gate, that is, at the arc of the fan, is Jin Pengyuan's completely newly built house. Then around the corner is Jin Pengyuan's home, and next to it is Jin Pengfei's home.

The doors of the houses face each other, and when you open them you will see the courtyard in the middle.

In order to prevent future conflicts over the yard, the vegetable plot in the yard was divided into five plots of equal size, and a flower bed several dozen centimeters high was built with mud bricks, so that there would be no need to worry about rain washing away the soil in the future.

If everyone can get along harmoniously without conflicts, then they can grow vegetables together. If there is discord in the future, each of the five vegetable plots can be planted on one plot, which is also a very simple thing.

Xia Chan will at most go out and play, but she will never give up this place. After all, there are mountains that she is familiar with here, and she also wants to make money from these mountains!

The toilet is still in the original place, and it has been renovated with mud bricks. Just like before, there are men's and women's toilets. After all, my brothers are all going to get married, and there will be a lot of people in the family. They can't all queue up to use one toilet, right?
Although every family has a firewood room and a utility room, if all five kangs are lit in winter, a lot of firewood is needed. Even if the firewood room is full, it is not enough to keep the fire burning for long, so firewood sheds were built on both sides of the courtyard gate.

There is also a pigpen outside the courtyard wall. It used to have a bamboo fence, but this time it was replaced with a mud brick wall. Raising pigs can produce meat, and if nothing goes wrong, their family should raise pigs every year in the future.

One household can raise two pigs, and since there are three households with several people, they can raise six pigs. So this time they specially built a bigger pigpen in preparation for raising more pigs in the future.

Xia Chan and her four siblings lived in the shed for a month and were finally able to move back home. While her brothers were not at home, Xia Chan took out the things she had put away in the space in advance and put them back to each household.

The brothers’ money was actually hidden in these furniture. They didn’t react at all for such a long time and they must be worried in their hearts. After all, this was their wife’s capital and the basis of their lives.

When I got home from work today, I saw that the furniture was still there, and their money was also there. I should be able to rest assured, right?

It’s just that the electricity hasn’t been repaired yet, so everyone still has to use kerosene lamps or candles. Fortunately, we have these things at home, so we don’t have to live in darkness at night.

In mid-July, Xia Chan asked all the brothers to take leave, and then took them to the county junior high school to take the graduation certificate exam. The school building was also destroyed and had not been rebuilt yet. The students took the final exams on the playground, while the brothers took them in front of the principal. After all, the brothers could not stay in school for two days like the students!
When Xia Chan arrived at the school, she met Xia Qingshan. She then remembered that Xia Qingshan was already in the second grade of junior high school and would be going to high school next semester. As the eldest grandson of the team leader, the team leader would definitely let him continue his studies.

After all, the tuition fee is only a few dollars, and the living expenses are about ten yuan a month, so the team leader's family can still afford it.

Xia Chan told him to study hard for the exam and get good grades. Then she took her brothers to see the principal to take the graduation certificate exam. Her brothers all passed and successfully obtained their junior high school diplomas. Next, Xia Chan would teach them high school courses. There were still more than three years left. She believed that she could lead her brothers to get good grades and become a golden phoenix flying out of the mountain village.

The educated youth center has been built. Xiao Fengfeng and Xiao Tiantian moved back a few days ago. Yuan Bingbing and Zhou Ji went back to the county town a while ago.

Everywhere people were tricked out of their houses under the pretext of holding meetings. Houses also collapsed in the county town, but there were no casualties.

Everyone also lives in tents and will move back after the houses are built.

It was not convenient for Yuan Bingbing and Zhou Ji to share a tent with Mrs. Yuan and Yuan Daming, so they stayed in the county town for a few days, calmed their panicked parents, and then returned to the Yong'an production team.

The reconstruction of Yong'an Production Team is almost completed, and Xiao Yunfan and his team are about to go to other places. The disaster-stricken area this time is very large, and rebuilding houses takes a lot of time, so there are still many places that need them.

The night before departure, Xiao Yunfan pulled Xia Chan to the stream, held her hand and said seriously, "Xiao Chan, we are going to the next place tomorrow. We probably won't be able to meet for a while, but I will come to see you as soon as I am free. Take care of yourself. I don't want to see you thinner next time we meet."

Xia Chan also shook his hand back and said seriously, "I'm not a child anymore. I can take good care of myself. But you should be more careful at work, eat on time, and don't starve yourself to get a stomach disease, otherwise you will suffer in the future."

"Xiao Chan, I only have you in my heart, and there will never be anyone else, so you don't have to feel insecure. When I'm not with you, don't believe in rumors. If you have anything to say, you can wait until we meet and ask me in person. Don't let your imagination run wild, okay?"

Xia Chan nodded firmly, "I believe you, and I am also confident that you only like me."

She is not a fool, how could she not see Xiao Yunfan's intentions?
It is said that older men have no love, but if an old house catches fire, it would be a disaster.

Xiao Yunfan took out a bulging envelope and stuffed it into Xia Chan's hand, saying a little embarrassedly, "This is the love poem I wrote to you. Please read it tomorrow, no, the day after tomorrow when I'm not here, otherwise I'll be embarrassed."

Seeing Xiao Yunfan's shy look, Xia Chan found it very strange. She decided to give him a surprise, so she stood on tiptoe and kissed him on the cheek. In his shock, she whispered, "Xiao Yunfan, I like you, sincerely, without any intention of compensating you."

"Xiao Chan, are you telling the truth?" Xiao Yunfan looked at Xia Chan excitedly, as if he couldn't believe it. After such a long time, she finally responded to his feelings?
