Traversing the good life of a peasant woman

Chapter 13

Hearing Wen Yue's words, Fang Dachuan felt as if a big rock finally fell to the ground. He has been feeling uneasy about not getting anything these days. Ever since he knew that Wen Yue's embroidery can make so much money, he has no pressure. is fake.As a man, if he relies entirely on his wife's income to live a good life, it's no different from eating soft food, so he has all the energy in his heart to do more things for the family, but God doesn't help him.

Fortunately, his wife didn't mean to look down on him, otherwise his face would really have no place to put it.No, I have to find a time to go to the mountain to dig a trap. Apart from farming, he only has this ability. He doesn't believe that his luck will always be like this!

"Dachuan, why don't you take me to the place where you see it tomorrow? If it's suitable, let's talk to Zhou Lizheng. With the 20 taels of deposit I received today, plus the [-] taels of silver I saved, It’s enough to buy land and build a house, what do you think?” Wen Yue was preoccupied with the house, but she didn’t see the ever-changing expression on Fang Dachuan’s face.

When Wen Yue was taken to the place he mentioned by Fang Dachuan, she felt her eyes brighten. This place is really an excellent place as Fang Dachuan said.What made Wenyue even more happy was that there were still a few fruit trees on the edge of this open space. The excited Wenyue pointed to this open space and began to talk about her thoughts to Fang Dachuan, where to build a house, where to fence, Where to pave a stone road.

Fang Dachuan was happy seeing Wen Yue, and his mood also improved. After sending Wen Yue home, he went to Zhou Lizheng's house alone.

Mrs. Zhao and Mrs. Li did not go to the field today. They waited anxiously for Fang Dachuan at home with Wen Yue. When Fang Dachuan came back and told the rules of Zhoujia Village, Wen Yue and Mrs. Zhao were surprised.

"Really, Da Chuan, did you hear me right? That piece of land doesn't cost money?" Mrs. Zhao asked uncertainly.

Fang Dachuan nodded and said: "Yes, as Zhou Lizheng said, as long as the house land in Zhoujia Village is free of money. But there is one thing, after the new house is built, the old house will belong to Zhoujia Village. If you still want the old house, You have to spend money to buy it.”

When Mrs. Zhao heard this, all the joy on her face receded, and she said with a dissatisfied face: "Is this different? It's just a new place and a house built upside down. No wonder we can come to Zhoujia Village this week. I was allocated a house, that’s how I dared to do it!”

Wen Yue doesn't quite understand why Zhoujia Village has such rules, but as Zhao said, this one mile and one outside is basically equivalent to collecting land money and increasing the property of the village.Forget it, don't care about that, anyway, this house was allocated to them, there is no need to keep it, and it will be returned if it is returned.

Seeing that the few people in the room were silent, Fang Dachuan took a sip of water and then said: "There is one more thing, that is, Zhou Lizheng said that the size of the new house should not be larger than the size of the old house, that is, the yard on the house, if If there is any excess, you will be charged.”

"How much do you charge?" Wen Yue asked.The place they looked at was much larger than the current house. If there was more money, the house she wanted would not be able to be built.

"Not much." Fang Dachuan shook his head and said, "One liang of silver per mu of land, and our place is only a few cents more."

Only then did Wen Yue nod her head reassuringly, and then happily said to Da Chuan: "Then let's buy it, Da Chuan. You can find someone to build the house in June, and we can live in our new home before winter."

The newcomer Fang's family is going to buy land and build a house!This news blew through the entire Zhoujia Village in an instant like a gust of wind, and all kinds of inquiries and pointers came one after another. Countless gossip spread rapidly among people, even if Zhao told Li that The money for building the house came from Wen Yue's embroidery, but the people in the village would not believe it.More people are willing to believe that it is Fang Dachuan and others who were relocated by the superiors who received a large amount of compensation. For a while, the local households in Zhoujia Village all envied these people who were exiled.

Wenyue is deaf to these rumors outside. At this time, she is hurrying to embroider the wedding dress of that family. Embroidery is very eye-consuming, because she is afraid of myopia, so she usually only hurry up to spend time in the daytime. In embroidery, there is no stitch at all at night.Even the matter of building a house should all fall on Fang Dachuan, which is exactly the same. Wen Yue discovered that Fang Dachuan's learning ability is amazing. No mercy.

Finally, after Fang Dachuan bought all the materials for building the house and found someone, Wen Yue took out her drawings and explained to Fang Dachuan in detail the structure of the kang kitchen in the northern bungalow in her previous life.Wen Yue had only seen it in her previous life, so what she said was just a picture of a gourd. After she finished describing such a house, she looked up and saw Fang Dachuan staring at her in a daze, and said in her heart: "Did I not tell you?" clear?"

"No." Fang Dachuan said excitedly: "Yue Niang, you are so smart, how did you come up with this idea?"

"I heard what my father said before, but Dachuan, do you understand?" Seeing Fang Dachuan saying this, Wen Yue asked again to confirm.

Fang Dachuan nodded vigorously and said: "Understood, our new home will be built according to what you said. I used to think that Yuezhang is just like my father, who only knows how to study hard. I didn't expect him to dabble in this area. It's really too much." It's amazing."

This is the first time Wen Yue heard Fang Dachuan talk about her relatives in this body. Wen Yue was once curious, but the busy life in her daily life made her always forget to ask.Now that Fang Zaichuan has said this, Wen Yue asked, "Da Chuan, is there anyone from my natal family?"

Fang Dachuan looked at Wen Yue with some embarrassment, seeing her shining eyes full of curiosity, and thinking about the amazing changes since she lost her memory, he hesitated for a while and said: "Your parents They have all passed away, and you still have an elder brother, sister-in-law and a younger brother. Your family also owns an embroidery village in Bianbian Town. After your parents are gone, your elder brother decides to marry you to me. I have never contacted them again. Before the migration, I went to the town to look for them, but they have already moved away, and I don’t know where they are now.”

Fang Dachuan was euphemistic, but Wen Yue could still hear something unusual from his words. Why was a young lady from a rich family married into the Fang family after the death of her parents?If it is because Fang Dachuan's father is a scholar, that is unlikely. After all, she once heard Zhao Shi say that Fang Dachuan's father has studied books all his life. been on.

What is that for?I'm afraid there is something else to say here, but Wen Yue looked at Fang Dachuan's expression of unwillingness to talk, and didn't continue to ask. Anyway, it's someone else's business, and it's just a gossip incident if she knows it.

Since starting to build a new house, Fang Dachuan has become even busier. He leaves early and returns late every day, busy with the double work of the new house and the field.Seeing that Fang Dachuan, who usually refuses to go to the kang without washing his feet, is now so tired that he can fall asleep without taking off his shoes and sticking to the kang, Wen Yue suddenly felt that she was not thinking well about building a house. During the slack season, alas!

Seeing that the corn has grown to the height of half a person, the beans and cucumbers in the field are ready to be eaten, and Wen Yue's belly is bigger than before, the Fang family's new house is finally ready.On the day of Shangliang, Wen Yue's family got up early to prepare for today's Shangliang banquet.Fourth Aunt Sun, who brought her two daughters-in-law to work, said to Mrs. Zhao enviously, "Old Auntie, you are really blessed. You are the first to build such a big house when you come here."

Mrs. Zhao was afraid that someone would be jealous. These days, she has heard a lot of gossip in the village, and some people who moved here together are also dissatisfied with their family.Whenever such rumors reach her ears, she will take out the aura that the old lady is not afraid of, pinch her waist and yell, what kind of red eye disease, what kind of bad intentions, I can't see others living well, like this If so, he scolded out angrily.

No one dared to speak so harshly in front of her, so she turned back and left triumphantly as if she had won a battle, but every time this time came, Wen Yue would have to be scolded by her again, complaining about Wen Yue. Moon is looking for trouble.In view of the fact that Zhao's fierce fighting power saved her a lot of trouble with the tongue, and Zhao's mouth was happy and the anger in her heart was released, so there was no danger of suffocating her body, so Wen Yue never got angry. , but coaxed Zhao to let her fight bravely outside.

Don't look at her bluffing outside, she is still a little unreliable in her heart, wandering around the new house for most of the day, afraid that someone will make trouble secretly.Thinking of the anger in her heart these days, Mrs. Zhao vomited all her complaints at Fourth Aunt Sun.

After hearing this, Fourth Aunt Sun persuaded her nonchalantly: "Auntie, I said you just think too much. This jealousy has never existed in any generation. I think what Chuanzi's daughter-in-law said is right. We can still be afraid of it." Don’t eat rice if there is sand in the rice? That’s because Chuanzi’s daughter-in-law is capable, and it’s your family’s blessing, so let them be envious, make them jealous, let’s live happily.”

After hearing this, Mrs. Zhao didn't answer, but the expression on her face clearly showed that Fourth Aunt Sun's consolation had no effect at all, after a while she put the beans in the pot on the plate and said: "I hope, alas! Let's serve."

Fang Dachuan invited Zhou Lizheng and a few elders in the village for this Shangliang banquet, and also called some good-knowledgeable families who came to help when building the house. The fat and water still made a group of people babble, and Wen Yue in the room kept frowning.

At this time, she was very grateful that Fang Dachuan's family had never had these indecent bad habits, otherwise she would have to spend a lot of effort to correct them, and then there would be another war without gunpowder smoke.

Seeing the wine, three rounds, and five flavors, the plates on the tables have almost bottomed out, and the people who came to the Liang banquet said goodbye with some reluctance.The people in the yard were almost gone, and Zhou Lizheng patted Fang Dachuan on the shoulder with a blushing face and said appreciatively, "Dachuan, your family, fine."

Looking at Zhou Lizheng, who was a little confused after drinking, Fang Dachuan had no choice but to help him go out and prepare to send him home. Mrs. Zhao in the kitchen looked at the empty bottom of the pot, and then looked at the gifts brought by these people , pouted and said to Mrs. Li: "A group of shameless people, who are ashamed to bring green onions as a gift, why doesn't he cut the leeks?"

Li Shi didn't make a sound at the side, but Wen Yue burst out laughing when she heard what Zhao Shi said was funny.Seeing that Wen Yue was still in the mood to laugh, Mrs. Zhao was even more angry: "Laugh, can you still laugh? I said prepare less and don't need to fix it. If you don't listen, you will spend a tael of money, even a Baiwen's things have not been taken back. I don't feel sorry for Li Zhengrou, but I really feel uncomfortable for these black-hearted people."

"Grandma, look at you. You didn't spend much on the left and right. The things are all from your own land. Don't be angry. Isn't this also for our family to earn a good reputation." Wen Yue comforted with a smile.

Mrs. Li said with a "hum" after hearing this: "I can't say no to you, it's all your fault, I'll go out and see if those gangsters are gone, do you want to lick all the dishes at home!" After finishing speaking, she walked out in a hurry.
