Chapter 236 This is Disgraceful
The bricks and tiles prepared by Yeran's house for building a house can't fit in a yard, and a small half of the bricks are piled outside the fence.

As soon as autumn came, the closure order was lifted.

Carpenter Tan brought two carpenters from a neighboring village to the mountain to pick up wood to make beams, and the cut trees were also placed outside the fence.

All is ready except for the opportunity!
Picking an auspicious day, Zhou Zhijie brought people from the Zhou clan to work.

In the entire Xiushui Village, only the Yin family and Zhou Zecheng's family have big tiled houses of green bricks. Now Yeran's family is going to build a big house of green bricks.

The house of Aunt Wu's house was so dilapidated that Zhou Zhijie was supposed to lead someone to tear it down.

But he didn't expect that he took a dozen strong men from the Zhou family to the back mountain. After a while, the back mountain was ablaze.

"Go away, go out!"

"It's dry and dry, and it's easy to get wet."

"It's burning, the fire is burning hot, help put out the fire, hurry up..."

On the first day of construction, Yeran asked Wu butcher in the village to send ten catties of fat and thin meat.

Aunt Wu cut the meat into cubes in the kitchen, and planned to cook a large pot with spices according to the method taught by Ye Ran to entertain the people who helped build the house.

Before she could react, a bunch of people rushed into the stove, scrambling to get her buckets and basins, scooped water in the tank, and ran away.

"What are you doing with my barrels and basins?"

In a hurry, Aunt Wu stopped this one but not the other, and watched them run back downhill with buckets filled with water.

The fire on the back slope was very strong, and as soon as I approached with a bucket, a wave of heat rolled.

The salesman Lu with the bucket and a group of people were about to pour the water in the bucket into the fire when Zhou Zhijie saw it and shouted, "What are you doing? Uncle Lu, what are you doing?"

Lu Merchant was stunned by the action of splashing water: "Extinguish the fire, the fire is so big, if it burns down, it will burn the whole village!"

"We started the fire, and it only burns the back slope. Didn't you see the ditch dug under your feet?"

Zhou Zhijie snatched his bucket and helped the people who came to put out the fire. Only then did he see a ditch dug under his feet. The fire did not spread through the ditch.

The salesman Lu was thinking that Yeran took care of his business and ordered a lot of clay pots from him.

There was a fire on the back slope, and it was going to burn to her house soon.

How could he not help?
Unexpectedly, he rushed to put out the fire, and there was a big oolong. He put down the bucket and asked Zhou Zhijie: "Didn't Ran's family build a house? What are you doing burning the back slope?"

The salesman Lu asked the villagers' questions. They were all wondering why Yeran's house started construction today, but instead of tearing down the old house, they set fire on the back slope instead.

When he asked this question, he looked at Zhou Zhijie curiously.

"The foundation of Ranniang's new house was chosen on the back slope. There are too many weeds on the back slope, so it has to be burned before the house can be built."

what?
The new house is going to be built on the back slope?
A few members of the Zhang family had followed to watch the excitement, but when they saw the fire, fearing that it would bring disaster to the village, they also followed the salesman Lu to put out the fire.

Hearing Zhou Zhijie say that the foundation Yeran chose was on the back slope, Zhang Guibin said, "Zhijie, your father, the chief of the village, did it unfairly. This back slope is wasteland, and that is also the land of the village."

"Yeah, this land belongs to the government, why should she use it to build a house?"

"Is the head of the village agreeing to her? This is too much to help Ranniang. This matter, your father has done something disgraceful..."
