Chapter 108 The Well

ps: Dear friends, the network at home was broken yesterday. I sent these two chapters at the office this morning.It is to make up for the three chapters promised yesterday.There is one more chapter tonight.

Qiao Mingjin bought the homestead and the four acres of high-quality paddy fields in the village, and the Wu family soon found out.

She didn't think Qiao Mingjin was capable of buying paddy fields by herself.As for the homestead, Qiao Mingjin had nothing to do with her.

It's just that she has to talk to her son Haosheng, a woman is not good at home to take care of the child, and she has caused a lot of troubles. If something shameful happens in the middle, won't she embarrass her son?

She wondered when she forced her son to cut the mess quickly.

And when she heard that Qiao Mingjin had directly handed over the four acres of paddy fields to the Lu family's mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, Wu's heart ached.She was so distressed that she twitched.

This is a full four acres of land!Their father-in-law's family only has a few acres of land.

Give back [-]% of the food!It's not bad to give two or three achievements.

The land is all planted by others. If you only need to take care of it, how much effort will it take to harvest the grain?Even hiring part-time workers costs less than twenty or thirty cash a day.

What a prodigal bitch!

There are so many people in their Yue family who are idle, and it's not that they don't know that Zhong Yao's elder brother and younger brother are idle at home!The family, why not give it to the family members?

What a white-eyed wolf!An unfamiliar white-eyed wolf!

Let the elder brother and uncle in the family plant it, so why don't they give some to their mother and daughter when the grain is harvested?With that four acres of land, she can easily finish it by herself.She, Qiao Shi, is so squeamish, can't work in the fields?What if she is the lady of a rich family?

It's true that if you are not in charge of your family, you don't know how expensive firewood is.

I don't plant my own fields.I don't know what she wants to do to help others manage the wooden stakes and so on.There is no need to teach Wan'er badly.Her son is now such a piece of meat.

It seems that she has to talk to the third child.

And Sun and Yu soon found out about it.

The two were also very puzzled.They are all a family, why not give the fields to their men to plant?Didn't they treat her badly before?Why didn't you think of them?Think of the Su family who is separated from the room?

Otherwise, their small family can save some money.

The mother-in-law, Wu's family, is getting more and more rebellious now.I don't know what to keep the money for?Is that daughter so precious?With Yue Xiaoman all the family wealth, how can she be expected to help her mother's family and brothers in the future with the water that her married daughter poured out?

After giving birth, isn't the husband's family the most important thing?He doesn't care about the son he gave birth to, but cares about the girl who lost money.

The two sisters-in-law were full of dissatisfaction.

Other families have successively received money for digging wooden piles from Mrs. Qiao.It is said that as long as a wooden stake is dug for a few days, there will be a tael of silver!Some even got two or three taels.

Just a few days of work.

It's all the mother-in-law Wu's fault, that's what the two of them said at the beginning, but she didn't expect her two sons to be unwilling to move.He also heard that Lao Yuetou said that he took the money from Mrs. Qiao because he was afraid that the villagers would gossip, so he refused to let his family members dig the piles.

Although they were not very happy at the beginning, the money after hard work did not fall into their pockets in the end.But if she, Mrs. Wu, persisted and didn't be persuaded by them, wouldn't she also get a lot of money now?

How long has it been since their sons have eaten meat?It's just that they have less to share with their two rooms, and each room can have at least a few hundred cash.You can buy a lot of things!

The two sisters-in-law immediately regretted and hated.

Thinking that no matter what, I have to go to Joe's again.If Mrs. Wu refuses to dig.They went back to their natal homes and called their brothers and nephews over.Even if they don't dig, can their natal family not divide their money?

Qiao Mingjin didn't know that the paddy field she bought from Digou had stirred up feelings in Lao Yuetou's family.

After she bought the homestead, she asked Yun Jin, who was going to the city to pick up the knives, to inform Master Saturday.

Only the next day, Lord Zhou brought someone here.

In addition to the masters and craftsmen who watch the land and build houses, there are also masters who are carpenters.

A group of people looked at the ground and then went to the forest to have a look, and heard He's father and the others talk about wood carving and the like.

After the house builders had seen the house, they drew simple drawings for Qiao Mingjin and Zhou Yanqing.

Zhou Yanqing asked Qiao Mingjin for his opinion.Qiao Mingjin said that except for the warehouse and workshop.Add two more rows of houses, or single room or double room or bunk.In the future, we must prepare places for the master carpenters to live.

If you can't come alone, all will be arranged to live at Qiao Mingjin's house.

She can't live at home either.After the workshop is built in the future.Even Father He, Yunjin and the others would all go to live in the workshop, and living in her house was only temporary, and it was indeed somewhat inconvenient.

Zhou Yanqing looked at the woman in front of her who was chatting with the house builder, and seeing her focused face, her heart was also flying.

This woman seemed to give him different feelings every time.Each time brings him a different experience.She watched this woman become more and more comfortable from being curious to now.

Several people have been looking at the homestead all afternoon, not only discussing how to build the workshop, but also discussing how to allocate personnel.How to arrange follow-up things and so on.

Zhou Yanqing definitely can't go to Xiahe Village often, he has a lot of things to take care of.He is busy enough with Zhou Mansion's business, he can't keep staring at this stall.

So he brought a steward.Introduce to Qiao Mingjin that the manager will take care of the affairs of this workshop for him in the future.

The steward is also surnamed Zhou, he is the son of the Zhou family, and has been servants of the Zhou family for three generations, and he is loyal to the Zhou family.The grandfather is the old man's entourage, and the father is now the chief steward of the mansion. He is 35 years old and manages a carpentry shop of the Zhou family.

Zhou Yanqing felt that the matter of the workshop was more important, so he raised him to take care of this stall.

The steward that week didn't look like a shrewd and treacherous person.He is very respectful to his master Zhou Yanqing.

Qiao Mingjin chatted with him for a while, and found that this person was very knowledgeable, and he was proficient in wood and various wooden works.Qiao Mingjin looked very happy.

She was most afraid that Zhou Yanqing would send someone who didn't understand anything and was bossy.

But at present, it seems that Zhou Yanqing has put his heart into choosing Zhou Yanqing, and he has chosen well.She is also considered polite to a country girl like her.Qiao Mingjin looked very satisfied.

After that, Qiao Mingjin talked to Zhou Yanqing about inviting someone.And some wood and so on.

Now it is clear what kind of wood can be produced in the woods, and if you want to make better root carving works that are more worthy of collection and can be sold at a higher price, good wood is essential.

Precious woods such as mahogany, nanmu, red sandalwood and black sandalwood have always been sought after by rich families.Such people are not afraid of asking for more money, but they are afraid that your things will not be good.

She doesn't look for expensive wood now, she only needs wooden stakes, and she must be able to find one or two.There is also the camphor that can emit natural fragrance, just to make some small ornaments, ladies and ladies can put it in the bedroom to play with.

Now she has Zhou Fu to join her.She doesn't have to worry about the people in the woodcarving master's stall anymore, what is lacking now is good wood.

After hearing Qiao Mingjin's words, Zhou Yanqing said that he had to deal with this matter.Good wood may be hard to find, so why not find the remaining wooden stakes?I believe that not many people have spotted root carvings.

Qiao Mingjin didn't doubt Zhou Fu's ability at all. Now that Zhou Yanqing said that he was responsible for the search, let's listen to his relaxed tone.She no longer worries.

What she has to do is to urge the workshop to get it out sooner.Then the raw materials were prepared, and then the preliminary processing procedures were done properly with people.

When Zhou Yanqing left, he took the housekeeper with him.

He wanted to keep someone to help Qiao Mingjin.It's just that there is no place for him to live.And the workshop has to wait for the masters to return to the city before they can draw the drawings, which will take several days.And I have to find someone to look through the almanac, and I have to wait for an auspicious day to start work.

When Zhou Yanqing left, Qiao Mingjin left 1000 taels of silver and an account book.

He had no doubt that Qiao Mingjin couldn't keep accounts.How can a person who turns the beads of the abacus so smoothly know how to keep accounts?When Steward Zhou was teaching her, she could tell from the calm look on her face that she probably knew more than Steward Zhou.

Zhou Yanqing became more and more curious about this woman.It seems that people need to check this woman carefully...

After Qiao Mingjin sent Zhou Yanqing away.Only the next day, the well-drilling masters in Shanghe Village finally made time.Came to her house.

Sister Xiu helped find them before, but then they kept busy until now.In addition, Qiao Mingjin was busy with other things, so he didn't find someone new.

When the master who dug the well came with his three apprentices, he was unanimously welcomed by Qiao's family.

Although drinking water is convenient in the village, if there is a well in the house, who would want to go out to carry water?Isn't everything convenient?

The happiest ones are Ming Qi and Xiao Wan'er.

The two aunts and nephews happily ran around in the yard, and even went to the village to find friends who had a good time on weekdays.Bring them all home to watch.I can't wait to tell everyone that their house is going to dig a well, so that they don't have to carry water anymore.

Sister Xiu, Mrs. Su, Mrs. Zhang and others were also very happy for Qiao Mingjin.At first, I saw her living outside the village alone with her daughter.There are no neighbors left or right, and there is no field or land at home, and there is not even a bed!I couldn't help worrying about the two of them.

Seeing their mothers get better and better now, I feel happy for them from the bottom of my heart.

Everyone in the family, including Yunjin He's father, stopped their work and were busy helping.

Before Qiao Mingjin asked Yunjin to buy some floor tiles and bluestone slabs and came back. After digging the well, it is better to lay a circle of floor tiles and bluestone slabs around it. It is also convenient for washing and washing vegetables, and there is no need for water and mud.

Build two more stone pools, one for washing large clothes and quilts, and the other for washing sweet potatoes and other things.

There is no need to look at any auspicious days for drilling a well. The master who drilled the well just looked around in the courtyard and chose a place without digging the ground.He also told Qiao Mingjin that there would be water without digging a few meters, and the underground water source was abundant.

Everyone is very happy.It started working that day.

With the help of the well-drilling master and his three apprentices, as well as He Fu, Yun Jin, Yue Dalei and others, the water came out at sunset that afternoon.

The well was built the next morning. There were many people, and sister Xiu Zhang and others also came to help. The floor tiles and bluestone slabs of the well platform were all laid in the afternoon... (To be continued.
