Reborn under the White Mountain

Chapter 176 Repair the Ancestral Hall

"Sister-in-law, what do you mean? You keep it for outsiders, but you don't use it for me. Are you looking down on me?" Liu's face darkened, and he became unhappy. "You have so many people, one more than me is not too many, and one less than me is not much. How can you do this if you keep me? Anyway, your family doesn't lack that much money?"

"Sister and sister, if you say that, I can't keep you anymore. What do you mean if you are more than one, and you are less than a lot? Then what do you want? We have enough people, we really don't need it." Fang bowed his head to work , ignore her.

"Hmph, don't use it if you don't use it, who cares?" Liu turned away angrily.

"Sister-in-law, it's right for you to do this, just like her, what can you do? She is dressed in a demonic way. You don't know, now mother and father cook and eat by themselves. Waiting for her to cook, have not yet Waiting for father and mother to eat, she and Junjie picked and ate all the good ones. Mother is so angry that now she cooks by herself. Sometimes, Shuzhen and I make delicious food and ask Yuyan to give it to us. In the past, maybe I asked the two elders to eat at home. At any rate, my father’s condition is much stronger, thanks to the snow clam oil from your family. Alas, my father regrets it now, and he should have lived by himself at that time. What's the difference between living with yourself now?" Zhou said from the side.

"The eldest son should be with his parents. This is our rule. I heard that when the family was separated, the old man said at first that he wanted to live alone. Later, everyone persuaded him, so he stayed with Yunbai and the others, right? " Zhuzi's daughter-in-law asked while tidying up the thorn buds.

"Yeah, at the very beginning, the old man said that they have to live by themselves. When they are old, whoever can provide for them will give them the house. But my mother disagrees. How much work has she done these years? Think about which daughter-in-law this is with, and just wait for the daughter-in-law to take care of it. It just so happens that the village chief and the others also said that they would not be with their sons, which would make people laugh. Besides, if they don’t understand now, there will still be troubles in the future, so the old man agreed. Sister-in-law They keep saying that they have to stay with their parents, so what are we fighting for? Move out early and live their own lives. We give the old couple five hundred catties of grain every year, a set of cotton and single clothes, shoes and socks , I have to give gifts in three festivals, which is enough." Zhou talked about the separation of the family.

"Hey, this is self-inflicted. If they could have treated Yunsong's sister-in-law better and brother Yunsong couldn't separate the family, then he would be the eldest son. If the old couple followed Brother Yunsong's family, they wouldn't have to enjoy the old age now. Is he blessed? It seems that this person really can’t do evil. People are doing it, and God is watching. Sooner or later, there will be a day of retribution. Look at the life of Brother Yunsong and his family. These days are prosperous. The dead old man has been chased. The whole family’s tax is exempted. In the future, I will buy land, and if I can’t plant it, I will rent it, and I will not pay tax anyway. How much money will I save this year?” Zhao’s daughter-in-law also talked there.

"Don't mention these, now we are thinking about how to live a good life. There are five boys in the family. If they don't earn money and divide the family business, how can they be called daughter-in-law in the future?" A large pot of celery. "I'm really sorry, there's nothing good about asking someone to help, they're all wild vegetables." These were picked by a few young people up the mountain.

"What's the matter? The dishes at my sister-in-law's house, with so much meat in them, are much better than ours. My family said, Brother Tong's family is really honest, he hires helpers, and pays for the food. Food The cooking is full of oil and water, which is much better than other people's." Zhuzi's daughter-in-law took all the vegetables and washed them.

"I always feel that it's good for the folks in the village to come to help, and I can't let them lose. In the past few years, thanks to the help of the villagers, otherwise, my family doesn't know what it is." Fang began to pick Yan'er again So, I plan to make steamed buns today, and mix them with Yan'er and Dayeqin. "Yumei, the meat is in that vat inside, take it out and wash it with water several times, or it won't be too salty." A while ago, all kinds of pigs were marinated, and now they use marinated meat.

When Chunsheng's daughter-in-law heard this, she took a piece of meat out of the tank, washed it, and chopped the stuffing on the vegetable mound.After a while, the meat was chopped.Mrs. Fang also scalded all the vegetables, took them out, and Chunsheng's daughter-in-law chopped them up together.For the noodles made in the house, everyone worked together to make several pots of steamed buns and steamed them in the pot in the front yard.There are many places where pots are used in the house, and the pots in the upper room are used, so I don’t have to sleep at night, because the kang is very hot.

After the buns were wrapped, some rice had to be cooked, and a few more dishes were cooked, and all the workers who happened to be working were sent to the hospital.The table is placed in the front yard. It is already warm outside at this time, and it is spacious to eat in the yard.There are six tables, and there are only four tables for those who work, and there are also people who help cook and people from their own family.There are four dishes, all with meat in them, the staple food is rice, and there are two big baskets of steamed stuffed buns on each table.This basket is made of peeled willow branches and woven by Da Lang.There are plenty of such baskets at home, and Yuxian uses them to hold things.

Everyone sat down, Yun Song brought a jar of wine again, and the men ate and drank, very happy.The tiredness of work is swept away.Of course the women don't drink, they just eat and talk, and plan what to do for tomorrow's meal.

This kind of day lasted for ten days.In addition to being busy every day, Fang is most concerned about Erlang and Bowen, and he doesn't know how they are doing in Fucheng.The government exam is at the end of April, should I take the exam now?Think about it every day.At the beginning of May, the periphery of the forest was all done, and Yun Song was relieved.However, there is still work to do next, and the ancestral hall will be built again.Yun Song consulted with the village chief and several old people in the village, and decided to start construction on the sixth day of May.In this way, they started to buy materials. Yuxian remembered that Fang Yun had said that there was a cement seller, so she asked Yun Song to go to the town to inquire.Sure enough, there was, so everyone decided to use cement instead of yellow mud, which would be much stronger.

People in the village who have cars all go to the town to pull bricks, tiles, cement, and lime. There is plenty of sand and riverside, so you don't need to buy it.It took more than ten vehicles to pull for three days before finally finishing the materials.Da Lang paid the money accordingly, and Yuxian told Da Lang that when he was asked to buy something, he would write a purchase contract with him, with the seals or fingerprints of both parties on it.This thing is the evidence of how much they spent. What if one day, the emperor suddenly remembered to check the account?Keep the credentials to save trouble later.

Now the materials are basically ready, and the wood was cut when clearing the forest years ago. At that time, Yunsong reserved the wood for building the ancestral hall.Everything is ready, and on the sixth day of May, the ground can be broken.

It was already the fourth day of May, and Mrs. Fang soaked the rice early and prepared to make zongzi.I was busy working in the yard, there was a commotion in front, and after a while, Erlang and Bowen came to the back.When Fang saw her son, she hugged her son happily, not caring that rice was still on his hands.

"Mother, Bowen and I have both passed the exam. Mother, we are now children. If we pass the college entrance examination in autumn, we will be scholars." Erlang was hugged by his mother, and a feeling of happiness surrounded him.

"Good boy, good job. Bowen, come, auntie has a look. That's great, you two brothers are very good." Fang was very happy to hear that both of them passed.

Yu Xian and the others were also very happy, they didn't expect the two of them to pass the government examination.After all, Bowen has been in a private school for a few years, and Erlang has only been in a private school for more than half a year, so it is really good to have such achievements.However, nothing too surprising.Erlang had already read and recognized characters with his mother before, and studied with Yuan Qingyun for a year and a half, so his foundation is not too weak.In addition, he is hardworking and has never left the book in his hands. Such achievements are also inseparable from his hard work.

Yuan Qingyun looked at the two children and stroked their beards with his hands, feeling extremely happy.After all, this is his disciple, and as a master, he is very relieved to see that his disciple is promising. "Yun Song, let's have a good drink tonight, brother is happy." It turned out that someone had already called Yun Song back.

"Okay, big brother, let's have a good drink tonight." Yun Song was the happiest person. He has never read a book himself, and he has always regretted it.Now when I have time, I will also go to listen to Yuan Qingyun's lectures. If I can learn a little, it is a little bit.The son is promising, and the father's heart is full of joy.

Fang let go of Erlang, took a good look at his son's face, "Well, I lost weight, tonight, mother will cook some delicious food for you two." Turning back to Chunmei, she said, "I'll kill a chicken later. Let's stew chicken at night. Take out some meat, fry some dishes, and have fun at night."

Yun Song also said: "I'll go to the net, catch some fish and come back, and have a good meal." Then he went out.

Fang added some water to the glutinous rice, and led the children into the house to chat.Everyone went into the east room and asked them about the situation of the government examination together.

The fifth day of the Dragon Boat Festival, the sixth day after the festival, this morning, all the people in the village went to the open space at the easternmost end of the village.This is the place that Yuan Qingyun showed, and Yun Song and the village chief made a unanimous decision after discussing it again.As soon as the time came, the men in the village began to dig the foundation. More than 30 people worked together to dig out the soil according to the lines that had been hung.

Of course, Fang's and the others are cooking at home again, and all the daughter-in-laws from each family have come to help. There are two big pots set up in the courtyard of Tong's family, and a dozen or so daughter-in-laws are busy there.Yuxian and Dalang naturally went up the mountain and down the river.There are many people eating, and there are not many vegetables at this time, only leeks and a few side dishes in the yard.I can't make a few, so I have to go into the mountains to see.

Several children, all carrying bows and arrows, entered the mountain together.At this time, the leaves of the trees have grown up, which is not very ideal for entering the mountain.The line of sight is severely blocked, which is not conducive to hunting.However, both Dalang and Xiaosan have already exercised, and they can still hunt something.

　The second watch is delivered, and there will be a third watch in the evening.
