Rebirth Farmhouse

Chapter 207

Lao Liutou had no choice but to accept it, so Xiuyao asked Qin Ye to put the money, and then discussed with Lao Liutou to let him introduce someone to Taoyuan Village to pull pigs. "Grandpa, I want cash. If you take all eight pigs away, you will get sixteen cents a catty." Xiuyao said.

Lao Liutou nodded, "That's fine too, no credit, it's cheaper."

After discussing the matter of selling pigs, Xiuyao said again: "Grandpa, the money for that little sheep's study..."

Before she finished speaking, Lao Liutou pretended to be angry and said: "You are settling accounts with grandpa. The little sheep will be promising in the future, so it has nothing to do with my Lao Liu's family? It won't give us face?"

Seeing that he was in a hurry, Xiuyao quickly apologized, "Grandpa, you have a long face, so give our old Liu the face."

Everyone laughed.

Xiuyao told her aunt to continue drying sweet potatoes and jujubes, and she can stop drying them after a thousand catties.Anyway, there are a lot of sweet potatoes this year, so they kept more fresh sweet potatoes.Besides, Xiuyao is still thinking about another money-making plan. There are a lot of sweet potatoes at home, which just come in handy.

"Grandpa, I'm looking for time to make vermicelli, but I have to wait for the weather to get colder, and we'll talk about it when we don't build a house." Xiuyao discussed with Lao Liutou.

Old Liutou asked her: "What are vermicelli?"

Xiuyao explained and said that sweet potatoes can be used to make it, and mung beans can also be made.

Old Liutou was curious and asked her to call him when she made it, and he also went to have a look, "It will be sold in the mill at that time."

Xiuyao smiled and said, "Of course."

The Qin family was still building a house, so Xiuyao and Qin Ye would stay soon. For safety's sake, Lao Liutou loaded the car with sweet potatoes.In addition, some fine noodles and coarse grains, such as soybeans, millet, sorghum, etc., were not grown by their family.There are also some fruits, pears, hawthorns, grapes.Pomegranates and so on, jujube Xiuyao's family also has them, so I didn't give them.

Qin Ye hid the money under the basket, and the two went home by car.

When he reached Shahe Village, Qin Ye slowed down when he saw a few people on the road in front of him. He looked closer and saw Liu Yan and others.Liu Yan and his brothers were sharpening pig knives there, and when they saw them coming, they shouted, "Is the pig sold?"

Xiuyao said sternly: "You don't want it, we will naturally sell it to others." She urged her eldest brother to go on and leave them alone, they dare not do anything in broad daylight, and they also rely on business to make a living, not robbery Road, dare not do outrageous things.

Liu Yan swung the butcher's knife, the blade was sharp and the donkey's eyes were dazzled by the sunlight, the donkey was startled and jumped up.Qin Ye hurriedly got out of the car to hold the donkey, and ran forward for a while before stopping and reining in the donkey.

Liu Yan and others laughed, "Your pigs must be sold to us, Thirteen Wen." As long as they watch the way to Taoyuan, see who dares to buy her pigs.

At this time, Grandma Chang came out of the house and shouted, "Liu Yan, are you bullying people again?"

But Liu Yan smiled a little timidly: "Grandma Chang, we are responsible for killing pigs, who are we to bully?" Then he left.

Qin Ye heaved a sigh of relief and thanked Granny Chang. Granny Chang smiled and said, "Don't worry about those brats." Xiuyao thanked her and gave her some sweet potatoes and fruits. A few sweet potatoes.

After bidding farewell to Granny Chang, Xiuyao and Qin Ye went home, took down the basket, and gave money to Mrs. Liu.Seeing that her natal family was giving food and money, Mrs. Liu sighed for a while and was happy again. This was earned by her daughter, so she saved it well.She has never intervened in Xiuyao and Lao Liutou's money-making plan and money-sharing rules, and let them go by themselves.

And Lao Liutou waited for Xiuyao to leave, and also discussed with Li Shi, "Let's save this much money and use it for Yang Yang's future studies." Well, when he grows up and starts taking scientific examinations, the money will be like running water.

When the family had money, the Liu family discussed with Qin Dafu to buy some stones suitable for laying the foundation, and then buy blue bricks. The house can't just use adobe, it must have bricks.The family agreed, so Qin Ye drove the donkey cart to the brick kiln in Fenghuangtun, bought some blue bricks, stones and lime, and asked them to deliver them.Because they paid in cash, they gave it a discount, and immediately sent a vehicle to deliver it, which did not delay the Qin family's progress at all.

After a few days, the foundations of the three houses of the Qin family were laid, and the walls began to be built. Because there were green bricks, the sill walls were built with green bricks, neat and beautiful, and the seams were plastered with plaster.

In order to save money, the places flush with the windows are made of adobe, and the thick walls can be installed with two layers of windows to keep warm in winter and block the wind.On the top of the window, there are several layers of blue bricks, and then the eaves are raised with blue bricks, making a very fashionable fancy.

At night, Liu Shi and Qin Dafu settled accounts, and sighed: "At first, we thought about spending less money, so we built the house ourselves, but in this way, we spent more money. It is really a bottomless pit that can't be filled. If I had known earlier, it would be better to buy a house." ready-made."

Qin Dafu smiled and said: "Where are the ready-made ones, we can build them ourselves. How many houses in the village are all made of bricks and tiles? Ours is already very good. It can't be compared with Zhou's house, but it is considered good in the village." Although there are only three rooms, they are enough, and they will be added slowly in the future. Unless the family has a lot of money, no one can build a house by themselves.

Xiuyao waited for the pig collector to come to the door, but the house was erected with a large brick wall, and the pig collector didn't come. She asked Qin Ye to inquire about it. When Qin Ye came back, he said angrily: "The pig collector was killed on the road. After a beating, I don't know who did it, I guess it was Liu Yan and the others."

Xiuyao was also angry, "These people are so lawless." Needless to say, it was them, they must know that those people came to her to collect pigs, they were all pork sellers, and they probably knew each other in private.

There is no other way for a while, but to raise the pigs first.

Because Qin Dafu's family built a house, Lao Bai's family was afraid that they would be short of money, so Lao Baitou sent Bai Xun'an to give money.Bai Xun'an was a very handsome young man with a warm smile and looked very smart. He said to Liu Shi and Qin Dafu: "Father, mother, let me send you some money."

Liu's naturally refused to accept it.

Bai Xun An insisted on staying: "If you don't accept it, my parents should say that I don't want to give it."

The Liu family still refused, and later Bai Xun'an had no choice but to take the money away, but he went around again and went to Fenghuangtun to buy another batch of green bricks, and asked them to send them to the Qin family.Mrs. Liu had no choice but to accept it, but write down the amount and add it to Xiuqin's dowry money.

Here the Bai family is helping, and the Xu family is also in a hurry. Hearing that the Qin family is building a house, he thought he hadn't gone to Dading yet.

At that time, Qin Dafu and others were busy in the venue, Liu Shi was busy at home, and Xiuyao was trying to figure out how to deal with Liu Yan and the others.Mrs. Zhang led the old Xu head in, and said as soon as she entered the door: "Da Yeniang, your eldest brother from the Xu family is here."

This time, old Xu looked for the door and found Lao Qin's house. Mrs. Zhang had the affairs of Lao Bai's house before, so he didn't dare to talk nonsense, so he led him directly to his eldest son's house.

Mrs. Liu was preparing meals to be delivered to the venue. She was stunned for a moment when she saw Mr. Xu standing behind Mrs. Zhang. Then she came back to her senses and hurriedly wiped her hands on the apron to say hello to Mr. Xu.

Old Xu smiled and said: "Big sister, you came here so suddenly, I'm really disturbing you, I'm rude and rude. You are so busy, I will add to the trouble." Then he put down the presents in his hand, some snacks, and a piece of meat , a fish, some current fruits, and another small wooden box that he still carries, the gift is quite rich.

Unexpectedly, he would rush over in person, so Liu hurriedly asked him to sit on the kang.

Old Xu Tou knowingly asked where the big brother was. After all, he was too embarrassed to let others know that he had already inquired about the old Qin's house being built.

Mrs. Liu said that she was building a house, and asked Xiuyao to call for someone. Old Xu head hurriedly said: "Don't be busy, don't be busy, come and identify the door, just sit and go. Don't disturb the big brother's work."

Mrs. Liu smiled and said, "It's not too late." She asked Mrs. Zhang to sit with Old Xu, and she went to prepare meals.

Soon Qin Dafu came back, and Qin Ye was also called back by him to be recognized by Old Xu.

Qin Dafu exchanged greetings with old Xu, and introduced Qin Ye. Old Xu looked at Qin Ye as a man of talent, except that his right hand was injured and his strength was weak, but he looked good no matter what, and he was very caring.The unhappiness in my heart caused by Qin Ye's hand disappeared, especially seeing that his conversation was not vulgar at all, and his temperament was kind and honest, which made me even more happy.

But I have some doubts in my heart, afraid that he will dislike my daughter, after all, Er Niu's skin is a bit dark.Although he thought his daughter was pretty and had a hot temper, the matchmaker said she was just an ordinary person, so don't dislike her in-laws.Maybe they just want to marry a wife because their son's hand is broken, and their own daughter is so eager to dowry, so they come more for dowry.

Qin Dafu and Qin Ye naturally didn't know what he was thinking, and they only entertained him warmly.Old Xu said a few words, then smiled and said: "I'm a real person, and I'm also a straightforward person without a heart. What can I say? As for my daughter, I just fell in love with your great cause. She has helped us work since she was a child. , Delayed youth. Her mother and I also feel sorry for her. Our family arranged for her a few dowry and a donkey cart, but Zhao matchmaker said that your family has a donkey cart, and Erni decided to put it on her own. The donkey cart was sold and exchanged for money. Her dowry was a total of [-] pennies, and she asked me, the father, to bring it over first, and if anyone in the family needs money, just use it." He said and took the money he was carrying with him. The small wooden box was opened, and inside was a wooden box of money and silver coins.
