A small peasant girl

Chapter 222 Kind Response

There is still some time for Liu Meihua's marriage, but Erfang's new house is imminent. Wenzi asked Liu Kangtu to find someone to help build the new house.Fortunately, during this period of time, everyone's work in the field is almost as busy, and most people have more time, so it is not difficult to find someone.

Liu Fuwang and others who went to the room voluntarily came to help. Although Mrs. Zheng was not happy, she reluctantly agreed to Mr. Liu's unhappy words, and asked them to come and help with a black face, not forgetting to mention the wages with Liu Kangtu.

"Sister, how many people are working there today?" Wenzi put the boiled soybean milk into the wooden bucket, and she planned to bring the soybean milk from this wooden bucket. Liu Kangtu and the working villagers can drink it when they are thirsty. .

The villagers can try something new without making Erfang look stingy, but it doesn't cost much money. Wenzi is most willing to do such a good thing.

Building a new house is a big deal, Liu Kangtu has to go there every day to watch as a semi-supervisor, and Wenzi has to stop selling tofu nao in the town, although they have said that they can’t come to the town to sell tofu nao for more than ten days, and they want to eat tofu The brainless person almost couldn't hold back and came towards Liujia Village.

"Kang Tu, Uncle, Fourth Uncle, Fifth Uncle, and eight workers make up thirteen people." Liu Meihua thought for a while and then told the number.

"Sister, four plus [-]% is thirteen?" Wenzi covered her mouth and teased Liu Meihua. She knew that Liu Dashu was also helping with the work inside, but Liu Meihua was thin-skinned, and she was even more embarrassed to mention Liu Dashu's name after getting married.

The asking price of these invited villagers is not high. In their eyes, they are all from the same village. They are relatives and family members for several generations.

"Sister, let's cook some pork vermicelli for them at noon, and I'll make some side dishes and some wine in the evening, so I can treat them well." Wenzi felt that the money that should be spent should not be saved, and she didn't dare to make it too good for the lunch meal. Otherwise, if they eat too much, it will affect their work progress. On the contrary, everyone is busy at night, and they have time to eat, drink and chat. The scene should not be too lively.

People here generally only have the habit of eating breakfast and dinner. Most of them are poor and have no extra money to buy food. Being able to eat and not starve is a great satisfaction for them.

Wenzi thought that what these people did was physical labor. If they didn't eat something to fill their stomachs at noon, they would have to work on an empty stomach in the afternoon, which was not good for their physical and mental health, and would also affect the progress of building the house.

"Wenzi, you can do whatever you say. The elder sister has no objection." Liu Meihua thinks that Wenzi's cooking is right. She is used to three meals a day now. Meal agrees.

The disadvantage of having two meals a day is that you have to eat full in the morning, last for an hour or two, and then wait for the food to gradually digest, then starve for another hour or two, and wait for a big meal in the evening, the stomach can't stand this kind of small meal at all. torment.

In the past, people in Liujia Village built a new house. In addition to the daily wages of the invited villagers, at most they would give a bowl of tea to quench their thirst. In other words, it was a big loss.

But Wenzi is different. On the basis of paying enough wages, she also added sugar water and soy milk for them to drink as water, and served them with delicious and delicious meals at noon and night, so that the foundation that was originally laid in six days was full. It saved two days to complete the work, and the effect was not worse than the one that took six days.

After the villagers had eaten the meals prepared by Wenzi, they were inevitably a little disappointed with their own meals. Although they had finished their work, they would consciously stay and do more work when they saw that it was still dark. Wenzi was very careful and kind to them. I want to pay back with work.

"Sister, look at the progress. How long will it take for the new house to be built?" Wenzi asked Liu Meihua, who was cooking the fire, as she cooked. She really wanted to build the new house and move in as soon as possible. The house she lives in is short and dilapidated. , Many fresh foods are not easy to let go of research and development.
