Princess of Nongmen

Chapter 428
After Master Gu finished speaking, one of his apprentices next to him also raised his head from the pit and said, "Yes, little girl, please say a few more auspicious words, and everything will go smoothly since the new house was built. I guarantee that your family will be happy in the future." It was prosperous and smooth."

Liu Ya hurriedly answered: "Okay, thanks to everyone's good words, whether we are working or living, we will be safe and healthy, with good luck."

"Haha, that's a good word." Master Gu and the other masons who were working all praised.Master Gu interjected: "Have you heard that, the master's little boss has given us a good omen, everyone should work hard."

Liu Ya was also very happy in her heart.Originally, building a new house is a good thing. How nice it is for everyone to wish each other kindly.

Liu Ya looked here for a while, but she couldn't help, so she went back to Liu's house and brought a pot of boiled water for these workers.Although the weather is not hot yet, the workers are sweating all the time, so they still need to drink more water.

After these workers finished drinking the water, Liu Ya went home with the pot, and saw Chun Niu and Xiao Shu'er also came back.Chun Niu was still holding a vegetable basket in her hand, which should be the leftover vegetables from Xiaoshuipu today.

Although Xiaoshuipu's business is good, after all, when buying vegetables, the mix is ​​not so uniform.Sometimes guests also have choices, some dishes they don't like, so there may be some left over.So I take it back every day, and it is just enough for dinner at home.

Liu Ya quickly went up to meet her, took the basket from Chun Niu's hand, and said, "When I came back, I heard that my eldest sister said that you went to Xiaoshuipu, so I feel relieved. After resting at home for a while, you will come back."

Chun Niu smiled and said: "Can you rest at ease? I think you are busy all day long, and you have to go through all big and small things. How is it that the adobe is back? It went smoothly Bar?"

Liu Ya nodded and said: "Shundang, the people at Zhoujiayao are really nice." Then he said: "Before it's still early, take me to that San Gouzi's house to ask about hiring an ox cart. Next time It’s the day after tomorrow, and tomorrow is the tenth day, and I have to take Xiao Shu’er to the government-run school in Guyushu Town for the exam.”

No matter how busy the family is, Liu Ya will never forget about Xiao Shu'er going to school.So today, when discussing the date of the next brick drawing with the people from Zhoujiayao, I deliberately set aside tomorrow and the day after tomorrow, so as not to have any things in the school that can't be done in one day. "

Chun Niu said: "Then let's go, Sangouzi's house is not too far from your home, and once you go there, it only takes a cup of tea, and you can also come back after talking and a meal."

Liu Ya asked Xiao Shu'er to go into the courtyard and talk to Liu Xuer, telling Liu Xuer that she and Chunniu had contacted about hiring a bullock cart, and then walked towards Sangouzi's house with Chunniu.

The name Sangouzi sounds very interesting, it should be a baby name, and it was called Shunliu casually, so it has not been changed.When Chunniu took Liu Ya to the place, she saw the courtyard door was open, and a little boy was squatting in the yard throwing stones to play, Chunniu yelled: "Three Gouzi."

Only then did Liu Ya realize that San Gouzi was just a six or seven-year-old boy, black and thin, but full of energy.And the driver is actually Sangouzi's father.

Chun Niu stepped forward and asked, "San Gouzi, is your father at home? We want to hire your family's ox cart to pull earth bricks."

"Not here." San Gouzi replied and walked out of the yard, and continued: "My father drove to work in the town early in the morning, and he will come back tomorrow afternoon."

"You won't be back until tomorrow afternoon?" Chun Niu looked at Liu Ya, wondering if Liu Ya could wait, or she was afraid that it would be too late to hire someone else's car.

Liu Ya took a step forward and asked, "Then your father is still leaving when he comes back from town? We still have to use several buses."

"Then wait a minute, I'll call my mother." After San Gouzi finished speaking, he turned around and went directly into the room, and heard him call "Mother", and then the voice of him talking to a woman.

After a while, a woman with a child came out.The child in the woman's arms was only a few months old, and she was still sucking her fingers.

Chun Niu asked first: "God's mother, let's ask when your ox cart is free, can you pull a few more adobes?"

The dog girl asked: "How many cars are you pulling in total? His father won't leave when he comes back tomorrow, but the crops in my field are full of worms. I plan to let him go to the field for a while and beat the worms when he comes back. "

Chun Niu looked at Liu Ya again, to let her make up her mind.

Liu Ya stepped forward and said: "We have ordered bricks from thirteen kilns together with Zhoujia Kiln, and we have brought back a cart today. The rest will be pulled in the day after tomorrow, but I don't know how many carts these bricks will be packed in." , you usually buy goods at home, you should know, right?"

Gouziniang was surprised, and said: "Ah, there are quite a lot of bricks in this thirteen kiln, at least it can build five houses, right? My cattle are strong, so they have to pull them four or five times. The one cart that was pulled back, the remaining four carts loaded with bricks will definitely be able to pull back. However, the Zhoujiayao is not close, and the ox carts go slowly, and it takes half a day to go back and forth. If you get up early, You can do two trips a day, and you have to come back in the dark. This is two days. Although you only use the car after you grow up, you can’t finish the work of killing insects in the crops in my field, and you have to be busy for two days. God, I'm afraid that the crops in the field won't be able to wait, I see bugs biting me every day, and I won't be able to cure them if I don't treat them."

Liu Ya thought about it, although she didn't have to use Sangouzi's ox cart, she could also hire a cart in Xiaozhang Village or other villages.But if they are hiring ox carts from the village, they are familiar with the road after all, so their family doesn't need to send someone to follow them specially, and it can save one person to do other work.After all, the Liu family didn't have enough manpower to build a house; and the small water shop was too busy.

Therefore, Liu Ya asked Gou Ziniang: "I'm not in a hurry to pull it back every time, just build a house here without delay, and Zhou's kiln can't burn all the bricks from the thirteen kilns all at once. .You can go there the day after tomorrow. Is it okay to pull the remaining trucks of bricks several times in a few days? Your ox carts go early in the morning and come back in the afternoon. Now the days are long and the sun sets Can kill insects in the field."

When Liu Ya said this, Gou Zi Niang was tempted.After all, raising a cow is work, and the ox cart is also idle, and the work in the field cannot be done in a day.In this way, we can get rid of insects in the crops and make money back, which is not bad.After thinking about it, Gou Zi Niang said: "That's all right, Gou Zi Dae will come back tomorrow, I will let him go to your house, and you can set a time for pulling bricks with him."

Seeing that Gouziniang agreed, Liu Ya asked again: "Then how much does it cost for your family to take a bus?" Liu Ya is rich now, but her money didn't come from the wind, she should ask the price Of course you have to ask clearly.
