Chapter 45, finally repairing the house
Mrs. Zhang came back to her senses and laughed, "You embroider so beautifully!"

"I'll embroider one for my second sister-in-law in the future!"

But not now, she has to make money first.

"it is good!"

Mrs. Zhang responded happily.

She knew about the situation of Shu Xin's family, and she believed Shu Xin when he said that he would give her a purse.

After resting for a while, Shu Xin started to embroider again.

When Yuan Shi came over with the fabric, Shu Xin had already embroidered two purses.

"This speed is really fast!" Yuan Shi sighed, and gave the fabric to Shu Xin, "Take it and cut it into the size of a purse, and use it to embroider the purse!"

The fabric Yuan brought was not particularly good, but it was not bad either, similar to what Shu Xin brought back.

"Thank you, Auntie!"

"Ok!"

Shu Xin is very knowledgeable and understands her current situation more clearly. If she really wants to pretend to be noble, the whole family will starve to death.

And she is not qualified to pretend.

He simply accepted it generously.

Shu Xin asked cauliflower and green onion to go back and feed the chickens. In their family's situation, they would only steal if their conscience was eaten by a dog. Most people would be ashamed.

She is earnestly embroidering the purse.

Shu Youren was not willing to teach, so he taught absent-mindedly for a while, and then came to Shu Xin with a tigerish face, seeing that Shu Xin ignored him, he sat beside Shu Xin angrily.

Shu Xin glanced at him, continued to embroider flowers, and asked casually, "What's wrong with Fifth Brother?"

"unhappy!"

"why you are not feeling happy?"

"I don't want to teach them to read and write, it's annoying!"

Shu Xin nodded, "Then don't teach, Brother Wu can play by himself!"

"You play with me!"

"No, I have to embroider to make money!"

Shu Youren thought for a while, tilted his head and said seriously, "Mother will give you the money!"

Shu Xin really smiled.

this nerd.

"I can also make money from embroidery. When I make money, I can buy candy for Brother Wu, okay?"

"Really?"

"Of course!"

Shu Youren also laughed, "Then I'll help you thread the needle!"

"it is good!"

Shu Youren stuck to Shu Xin just like that, cutting the thread with the needle, doing it with great joy.

Even if it didn't help, Shu Xin didn't mention him.

At the end of the day, Shu Xin couldn't straighten his waist, and made fifteen purses.

Although he didn't know how much he could sell for, Shu Xin was very satisfied.

The foundation was going to be dug tomorrow, and Shu Xin thought about knocking down the current house and rebuilding it. The village head agreed after a moment of thought, and told Shu Xin that there was no need to prepare anything, and the person who came to repair the house would prepare it.

"Thank you, Uncle Village, for running around for us!"

"When the house is repaired, just take care of your younger siblings to live a good life!"

"Ok!"

Shu Xin washed up and went to bed early. The foundation will be dug tomorrow. Mrs. Liu is in confinement and can't go out to have a shower. His younger siblings are still young, so only Shu Xin will be there.

Clothes, pants, and shoes are all ready, and Shu Xin gets up early on April [-]th.

After breakfast at the village chief's house, he went to wait with the village chief, and soon saw some people coming.

They were all men, of all ages, and they carried things.

"These are all here to work. Now there is nothing here, boil water or something, let your sister-in-law and second sister-in-law burn it, and ask your elder brother and second brother to bring it over!" The village chief said in a low voice.

"Well, listen to the village elder!"

After the village chief greeted everyone, some people began to set up tables, taking out pig heads, chickens, steamed buns, meat, candles and other tributes, and setting up firecrackers at the same time.

Many people also came from the village to watch the fun.

Seeing the old man in the lead mumbling aloud, he lit firecrackers.

The village head took the hoe and handed it to Shu Xin, "Go and dig the first hoe!"

This was originally for men to come, but in the case of Shu Xin's family, only the elder sister Shu Xin came.

Shu Xin dug the first hoe, and the matter of the house foundation was settled.

There were also many people who came, including those who volunteered to work in the village, there were five to sixty people in total. After staying for a while, Shu Xin returned to the village chief's house.

"aunt!"

"Hey!"

"Today is the day of digging the foundation of the house. With the situation at home, I can't invite everyone to dinner, but I have to show that I plan to spend some money to buy some eggs and cook some poached eggs. Not many, two per person , do you think it's okay?" Shu Xin asked.

When other people's houses are repaired, the host's house prepares lunch.

The situation of Shu Xin's family is here, and there is no way.

Yuan Shi thought for a while, "Okay, do you have money?"

"Have!"

"Well, let your two sister-in-laws go with you to buy eggs in the village, and you will have to buy one hundred forty or fifty eggs!"

"Ok!"

Shu Xin wanted to buy eggs, and everyone in the village knew immediately.

One penny, buy ten and get one free.

Shu Xin bought 170 at once, and there were more than 180 plus gifts.

When it's cooked, add sugar and send it over, two poached eggs per person, and a big bowl of sweet soup.

Although things are not worth much, but that feeling is heartwarming.

After eating poached eggs, I worked harder.

"Just bring some hot water over in the afternoon, no need to cook poached eggs!"

The village head smiled, "When the days are better in the future and the little brother grows up, please treat the folks well!"

"I want what I want!"

With so many people working quickly, the foundation was dug out in one morning, and the chickens were brought to the village to be raised. Those messy things were burned up by the village.

"Village Chief, you are so kind to Shu Xin's family, do you have any plans?"

"What are your plans? For orphans and widows, I'm the village head, so I can help when I need to. Besides, I'm just contributing, and the money is still a loan. They have to pay it back when they have money!" The village head said with a smile.

"It's true!"

"Whether it's true or not, these women are really pitiful. They can live a good life. If it is said, no one will praise our Shujia Village for its righteousness. It is also good that the younger generations will always look at them when they go out. Yes!"

"That's it!"

The villagers chatted a lot, but some people got to the point.

Shu Amu ruined the reputation of the Shu family village, beat the pregnant Liu family until she gave birth prematurely, almost killed her, and lost several daughters to the Liu family, just for the sake of being a widow.

This kind of man is really too cruel, heartless, and wolf-hearted.

Fortunately, it’s not a busy season, and there are many people who come to help. Shu Xin delivers hot water when he is free. Although there are no whole poached eggs, egg drop soup is indeed available every afternoon. At that time, the house was basically repaired, with stones on the bottom and soil on the top.

The yard is made of wood for the courtyard wall, each one is as thick as a small bowl, as high as two people, densely packed side by side, and the outer few are fixed with nails horizontally.

After the Dragon Boat Festival, the beams will be erected on the eighth day of the fifth lunar month. After the beams are erected, the kang will be built, furniture will be bought, and the house will be moved in on the fifteenth day of the fifth month.

Shu Xin counted his purses, and there were 42 of them.

For these 42 purses, she did it whenever she was free. She was so tired that she couldn't straighten her waist, and she had to stay up late at night.

But fortunately, the food was good, and it seemed that he had gained some flesh and turned white.

On the afternoon of the fourth day of May, Shu Youkang was going to the town to pick up a few children, and Shu Xin was going to Daiji to deliver a purse, so he took Shu Youkang's carriage.

Shu Youren wants to follow, Yuan Shi is afraid of getting lost.
