Traveling through the mountains and fields to be leisurely

Chapter 49

"Brother Er Zhuang, I really envy you. Your girl is getting more and more beautiful the longer she grows."

Because Wang Jianye has a fat son in his family, and seeing Lan Lingxue is so smart, he began to wonder if he would have a daughter next.

"Of course, my daughter, of course she is beautiful."

Lan Erzhuang looked at his daughter's big eyes that were as bright as black grapes, she looked so beautiful,
"I know your daughter is beautiful, so don't show off."

Lan Lingxue, who blushed at Uncle Sanshui's words, glared at her father, turned around and hid in the house. She herself took a picture of the water basin. She is skinny, and her skin is a bit dark and yellow, which means her eyes are not bad. Lan Lingxue felt a little guilty when her father said that.
"Brother Zihao, since you want to build a house here, you should tell the village chief before it's too late?"

Seeing Lan Lingxue leave, Sanshui got down to business,

"Speaking of which, after returning the carriage today, I went to the chief's house first. He has agreed to help me sell the old house in the village, and he has also agreed for me to start a house at the second brother's house."

Lin Zihao recounted the things he had discussed with the head of the village today, and then made a fist and begged everyone,

"Brothers have to work hard, you have to suffer with this house."

"Where it is, brother Zihao, just take a look. I'll definitely build you a bright room."

There was a wind blowing, which made this group of harmony flutter. Lan Erzhuang squinted his eyes, glanced at his house, and inspected the land at hand. Maybe in the near future, this piece of wasteland that no one wants to approach , it will really change.

"Zihao, what kind of house do you want to build? If it is like the blue bricks and gray tiles of Brother Er Zhuang's house, it will cost a lot of money."

Sanshui asked Lin Zihao worriedly, fearing that he might have high eyesight but low power,
"It doesn't need to be like this, just like the mud houses that are often built in the village. The foundation and half enclosure are made of stone, and the top is covered with adobe."

In Lin Zihao's heart, he was still worried that he would not be able to live for a long time, and it would take so much time, labor, and materials. In the end, if he traveled far away again, what would he do with the house? The second brother's family would definitely have a house in the future. At that time, the house may affect the planning of the second brother's house. In that case, it is better to build an adobe house to live in first. I used it as a warehouse for the second brother's house, and when I went to the second brother's house to build a house, I didn't feel bad when it was demolished.

"Then let's take out all the mud blocks in the afternoon, so that they can be used in the morning. Let's build a mud house first, and when conditions permit in the future, we can build a better house."

Sanshui was also afraid that Lin Zihao would feel uncomfortable compared to Brother Er Zhuang's blue brick house, so he comforted him again and again,

"Brother Sanshui, you and Chunsheng stay at home to help Brother Er Zhuang and Ni take off the adobe. Shanzi and I go to the other side of the river to collect some stones and come back. This is needed for building a house and digging a well. We have all the materials ready today. I can’t say it will be finished tomorrow.”

Wang Jianye drank the sugar water in one gulp, put down the water bowl, and was about to go to quarry when he pulled up the mountain.
"You have a good idea. How can this house be erected so fast? The beams have to be erected. It will take at least three days. It will also take three or two days to dig a well. Calculated from this, we really have to hurry up."

Sanshui and Chunsheng also got up,
"I went to quarry with Jianye and Shanzi, and my second brother, Sanshui brother, and Chunsheng took off the adobe at home. There was no need to hurry. We could finish building a house and digging a well. Two people couldn't do this job. It’s easy to say, if you can’t finish it before the autumn harvest, you all go home and go to work. I’m here, so I can’t miss anything. Brothers are tired and help me build a house. The second sister-in-law helps me take care of the two meals a day."

After Lin Zihao finished speaking, he followed Wang Jianye and Li Dashan and ran to the trolley.
"Stinky boy, be polite to me."

Lan Erzhuang looked at these hot-tempered brothers, his eye sockets were burning hot.

"I can't finish it, I will definitely finish it, Brother Er Zhuang, before we go back for the autumn harvest, we will definitely let your field grow vegetables."

I have already heard from Er Zhuang that he is going to help the elder from the capital grow vegetables. Sanshui comforted Lan Er Zhuang while taking off the adobe.
"Don't worry, I'm going to grow vegetables, not grain, and the solar terms are not so strict, so don't rush to do it, take it easy, no matter how tired you are, the autumn harvest will be troublesome, that's a big deal Son."

I am also a good farmer, of course I know the importance of the autumn harvest, it is a year's ration, I can't go wrong,

"I know, Brother Er Zhuang, this land is not the first year to plant, we know it well, right, Chunsheng."

"Ah."

Chunsheng answered sullenly, the adobe under his hand fell with a crackling sound,
"I know you are a boring gourd."

Brother Sanshui smiled at Chunsheng, and Chunsheng didn't reply, but simply laughed foolishly a few times.

The night came quickly, and Sanshui and four people were sent away, and the night was already falling. These few days have been really hard, everyone is very tired, even the little hoe helped to do a lot of work within their capabilities In order to relieve fatigue, Lan Lingxue asked her father to boil a few large pots of boiling water. Lan Lingxue wanted some men to wash first, but Lan Erzhuang felt sorry for her daughter, so she moved the big wooden barrel to the east room where she lived, and put An Zhiyuan Moved to Westinghouse, let the girls wash first,
"Father, you wash An Zhiyuan too. He has injuries and it's inconvenient to wash it by yourself. Then, before putting on clothes, you use the liquid in this bowl to wipe him all over. Apply more liquid, if it is a bruise, wipe it a little more, and then rub it for him, I see his condition, it should be all skin trauma, wipe them off for him, and he should be able to go to the ground tomorrow."

Lan Lingxue, who came out of the shower, helped her mother clean the bathtub, watched her father move the big wooden bucket to the west room, helped prepare the cloth towels and bath beans that should be prepared, and then brought a The water bowl came in and asked his father to wipe An Zhiyuan's body. Of course, Lan Erzhuang knew what was in the bowl when he heard his daughter's order. He was also curious about the effect of this clear spring water, whether it would be like It was as miraculous as I imagined, but when An Zhiyuan saw Lan Lingxue, who had just taken a bath, her complexion was pink and tender, her heart beat faster, and when she heard her ordering Uncle Lan to apply medicine for him, the corners of his mouth were almost unbearable. He bent over carefully.

Let everyone take a bath in turn. The natural water is added with some clear spring water. Needless to say, it is comfortable to wash, and it is everyone's common expectation to fall asleep refreshed.

"Mother, it's so comfortable!"

The little hoe rolled on the mattress that his mother had re-laid, but was spanked by Lan Erzhuang,
"Hurry up and lie down honestly, I can finally sleep well, you are not honest, and you are not tired."

"Who says I'm not tired? I've done a lot of work. I helped Uncle Sanshui mix the mud, I helped Uncle Jianye move the wood, I also helped my mother watch the fire, and... oh, and brother Zhiyuan I have learned to write, I can write my own name, you see that’s it.”

The little hoe pinched his finger to point to the work he did, and raised his finger to draw his name on the sky—Lan Hongze,

"An Zhiyuan can read? Did he teach you to read?"

Lan Lingxue asked in surprise, after all, she already had a guess.
"Well, brother Zhiyuan is smart. He knows those two books. Brother Zhiyuan said that after I learn these two books, he will teach me other things."

The little hoe said triumphantly, Lan Lingxue and Lan Erzhuang looked at each other, did they want to stay?

"Little basket, did you wake up a little earlier?"

Seeing that his daughter was about to get up, Lan Erzhuang asked in a low voice,
"I heard that Uncle Zihao got up, and when he told me that he would practice kung fu every morning when he got up early, I thought, let Xiao Hoe practice with him, not asking how strong his kung fu is, but only asking him to be healthy Healthy, what do you think?"

"I think it's okay, but my daughter has a lot of things on her mind, why didn't I think of it."

Lan Lingxue had already put on her clothes and went down to the ground, shaking a small hoe,
"Little hoe, wake up, I went outside to play with my sister."

The little hoe was holding Lan Lingxue's hand, unwilling to get up, she was sleeping soundly, my sister really hated it,

"Will it cause trouble for you, Uncle Zihao?"

Lan Erzhuang was a little worried that it would disturb Lin Zihao's practice,
"No, I just took the little hoe to the back to play. If the little hoe is interested, let him practice by the side. If not, then I will take the little hoe for a run. I won't disturb Uncle Zihao. of."

Lan Lingxue is confident that she can persuade Uncle Zihao to accept the little hoe.

"Sister, what are you doing, I still want to sleep."

Really anxious to be harassed by her sister, Little Hoe half-closed his eyes and protested,

"Little hoe, I went out just now and saw Uncle Zihao punching, whistling and blowing the wind, it's really exciting, let's go and see?"

Children have a hero complex, this trick should work,

"Really? Uncle Hao is really punching?"

"Of course, has sister ever lied to you? Hu-hu-ha-hey-"

Lan Lingxue took advantage of the situation and made a few punches, and the little hoe jumped up from the bed,

"I'm going to see, I'm going to see, mother, dress me quickly."

"It's shameful to ask mother to dress you at such an age. I originally wanted Uncle Zihao to take you as an apprentice. So you haven't grown up yet."

Lan Lingxue pursed her lips on purpose,
"Forget it, let An Zhiyuan fight with Uncle Zihao."

Pretending to walk out, the little hoe grabbed the sleeves and grabbed him so anxiously that he almost fell off the bed. Fortunately, Lan Er Zhuang quickly brought his son back and gave his daughter a dissatisfied look. , Who will feel distressed if it falls.

"How about it, little hoe, are you scared? It's all my sister's fault, she walked too fast."

Sure enough, I saw Lan Lingxue rushing back to the bed, nervously touching the head of the little hoe, with a look of regret,

"Sister, I'm fine, it's all my fault that made you worry, can I still watch Uncle Hao boxing?"

Little Hoe put his arms around Lan Lingxue's neck, looking flattering and aggrieved.
