The strongest peasant girl in Xiuse Jinyuan

Chapter 192 Talking about cooperation with Gu Xizhao (1)
Originally, Mrs. Jiang stayed in the house to wash the dishes, but the voices of Wei Changjue, Mrs. Feng and others came into the room from time to time, and she could still hear the general meaning of the words clearly.

Jiang also felt that what Wei Changju said made sense.

Jiang thought to himself: Although my second elder brother and his wife and Wang Laoshi's family want to help out of good intentions, building a house is a long-term job, at least twenty days' worth of work is required. If you want people to come to do the work for so long, how can you do it without paying wages.

Thinking about it, Jiang threw the bowl he was washing into the basin, wiped his hands casually on the apron, and walked to the door.

Seeing her looking at Feng Shi, Yu said: "Second sister-in-law, sister Chunlan, Qu'er is right, building a house is a long-term job, how can I let you help for nothing, if this is the case, Qu'er and I will feel sorry , you don’t want to say any more, just listen to Que’er.”

Feng Shi saw that Jiang Shi was also helping Wei Changjue to speak, so she was displeased and said, "Sister-in-law, Quer'er is not sensible, why are you messing around with her?"

After Feng's words fell, Wei Changjue felt the urge to help his forehead.

These days, couldn't even send money out.

Feng still didn't let go, so Wei Changju had no choice but to speak harder and said, "Second aunt, Aunt Chunlan, if you insist on coming to help, you can stay at home and help my mother cook. I have to go to Zuixiangfang every day. Worker, anyway, my mother is too busy alone, I will give you thirty cents a day, thirty cents is not much, so don’t refuse me, second uncle, Uncle Wang and Master Lin went to the entrance of the village to help build Zhaizi, I will give them sixty yuan a day, sixty yuan is reasonable, don't refuse me anymore, if you are not willing to accept it, then really don't come tomorrow."

After finishing speaking this time, Wei Changjue didn't want to say anything more.

Hearing that Wei Changqu had made his words so clear, Jiang had no choice but to help and persuade him again and again: "Second brother, second sister-in-law, honest brother, sister Chunlan, you just listen to Que'er, if you don't want to ask for wages, Qu'er will definitely not promise you to come to help every day. If I can't do it alone, wouldn't Qu'er have to spend money to hire someone to do things? It's better to hire someone from your own family than to spend money to hire outsiders to help. Qu'er can afford your wages, that's why I said that, and the four of you don't have to refuse."

Lin Jianchun stood at the side, listening to a few people saying what you said and what I said, but the more they talked, the more they said, the more they couldn't explain. When this delay continued, when would they be able to start work? Said: "Brother Yungui, honest brother, you two, don't be polite with Miss Wei, Miss Wei is also thinking of you, isn't it, you two have to support your family, since Miss Wei said that you want to pay wages, you just accept it , why bother to refuse like this, embarrassing the younger generation."

"Hey!" Jiang Yungui shook his head and sighed before saying, "Forget it, since Zhe'er is so persistent, let's listen to Zhe'er, it's getting late, don't delay any longer, Master Lin, honest brother, Let's hurry to work."

Jiang Yungui had already agreed, and Feng Shi, Wang Laoshi, and Yu Shi couldn't insist any longer, so they could only nod in agreement.

After talking about the matter, Jiang Yungui and Wang Laoshi led Lin Jianchun and other craftsmen to the homestead to start work.

Seeing the men leaving the mountain temple with hoes, shovels, hammers, etc., the three women Feng, Jiang, and Yu turned back and went into the house busy cleaning the house, washing dishes, sweeping the floor and so on.

Wash the dishes and chopsticks, tidy up the house, and later I have to boil a pot of hot tea and take it to the field. Today is the first day of work, and I must have spent three or four days digging the foundation. The house is firmly built Whether or not, the key lies in whether the foundation is dug deep enough and whether the foundation stone is filled firmly enough.

Those rough guys, carrying hoes all day and digging the foundation desperately, are sure to be thirsty after a while, so Jiang hurriedly cleaned the pot, and then poured a few ladles of water into the pot to make tea.

After cleaning up the house, Feng Shi and Yu Shi were not idle.

Seeing that there was no water in the house, Mrs. Feng took the bucket and was about to go to the ditch and brought back a load of water. It would be useful later, and Mrs. Feng was already busy preparing the lunch for noon.

At noon, I ate multigrain steamed buns. I saw that Feng first scooped a few scoops of white noodles and poured them into the basin, then added a small amount of corn noodles into it, and then poured water into the basin to knead the dough.

While it was still early, she quickly kneaded the dough, added some old flour, and covered it with a lid, so that the dough would rise faster, and at noon, it could be steamed directly in the pot.

In this room, as soon as the Jiang family finished boiling the tea, Su Cheng drove the carriage to pick up Wei Changjue and go to Zuixiangfang to work.

Because he happened to pass by the village entrance, and Jiang would not have to make a special trip, Wei Changjue took the teapot and sent the tea to quench the craftsmen's thirst along the way.

Su Cheng looked at Wei Changjue carrying the boiling hot teapot, fearing that she would accidentally burn his hand, so he quickly reached out to pick it up.

Wei Changju didn't refuse, and the full pot of tea was indeed heavy enough, so she handed it to Su Cheng.

When the two arrived at the entrance of the village, Su Cheng carried the teapot and headed to the homestead without Wei Changqu talking, and Wei Changqu silently followed behind him.

When he arrived at the homestead, Wei Changju saw that the group was working hard, and no one was lazy or playing tricks.

She glanced at the ground, and within less than an hour, she saw that a group of people had already dug a trench, and there were piles of mud beside it.

According to this speed, Wei Changqu estimated that two days would be enough to dig the foundation of the house.

The craftsmen raised their hoes and dug one after another. It was at the time when they were in full swing, as if they hadn't seen Wei Changjue and Su Cheng standing on the ridge of the field at all.

Su Cheng picked a flat place, and after putting the teapot away, Wei Changju opened his voice and shouted at the crowd: "Master Lin, Second Uncle, Uncle Wang, everyone is thirsty, there is tea here, everyone Take a break and come here for a cup of tea."

Wei Changqu's voice spread far away, and everyone raised their heads after hearing the shout.

Jiang Yungui leaned the wooden handle of the hoe against his body, raised his sleeves and wiped the sweat from his forehead, looked at a large teapot on the ridge of the field, and yelled at Wei Changjue: "Zheer , did you bring tea?"

"Yes, Second Uncle, hurry up and bring everyone over for a cup of tea and rest your breath." Wei Changjue replied loudly.

Immediately, Jiang Yungui looked at Lin Jianchun, and Wang said honestly: "Master Lin, honest brother, everyone must be thirsty, Zhe'er has boiled some tea, let's all go over and drink a bowl of tea, let's take a break."

"Okay, I ate too much this morning, and my mouth is indeed a little dry right now." As he spoke, Lin Jianchun put down the hoe in his hand, looked at the other craftsmen in a blink of an eye, and yelled.
