Farmhouse Small God Bowl

Chapter 173 Breaking Ground
Zhou Xiaobai thought, there are quite a lot of businesses in the family to earn money, but now there are few people and few people, so the house must be built now.

Chen Mo came back a day earlier, saying that he and his wife had already asked for leave.Everyone can also understand that starting a house in this family is a rare and important event in a lifetime, and it is naturally guaranteed.

Zhou Xiaobai was still counting on him to help when he came back. Unexpectedly, as soon as he came back, he was held back by Du Hu and the others.Zhou Xiaobai thought that he was bored in school all day long, so let them go.

Dahu and the others are really sensible these days. Since they lost the bet to themselves and asked them to take care of their fields, they really cared.He even went out of his way to help his family water the fields and so on.

But Zhou Xiaobai didn't treat them badly, he would often bring some candies from the town for them to eat on weekdays.

It's time to start building the house.Uncle Yan came over early in the morning, took a compass, and went out with Zhou Gensheng to explore the house.

Zhou Xiaobai specially spared time, and Chen Mo was even more curious, so they went together.I saw Uncle Yan take out a compass, gesticulate left and right at the place designated by Zhou Gensheng for a long time, measure the true north and south, draw a few lines with lime powder, and make a mark.

Zhou Gensheng first started to burn paper to worship the house god at the selected place.

Then Zhou Gensheng took out the firecrackers that Zhou Xiaobai had prepared and set them off at the four corners. The sound of "cracking" firecrackers could be heard throughout the village, and the villagers also ran out of their homes to watch the excitement.

Zhou Xiaobai was quite willing. The four hanging firecrackers were directly bought for a thousand rings, and they were set off for a long time before they were all set off. The ground was covered with red cannon coats.

Except for Chinese New Year, where has the village seen such a lively scene.In fact, even if it’s the Chinese New Year, the average family is just setting off one or two small firecrackers, just to make it lively.So the children in the village were all excitedly jumping and making noises, and they had to come closer and have a look.

One by one, they were held by the adults and were not allowed to move.Chen Mo stood proudly by the side, this is the house built by his own family, although his eyes were eager to try, very excited.

Waiting for Zhou Gensheng to finish setting off, the children had already swarmed over to find the unfinished firecrackers in the red confetti.Zhou Gensheng looked at the scene in front of him, and his eyes couldn't help turning red. This was the second time he had built a house in his life.

I still remember the first time, the two sons were still there, and it was so lively. At that time, he thought that the good times had just begun. Unexpectedly, in the next few years, since the eldest son disappeared, the younger son married a wife Son, but I couldn't get along with them, and then I went back to the ancestral house.

The days are getting worse day by day. At first, he thought that he would never see another house in his life, but he never thought that he would be able to build a house again so soon.

Looking at Zhou Xiaobai and Chen Mo who were busy at the side, Zhou Gensheng felt very relieved. Fortunately, he met such two obedient and sensible children, and he will be blessed when he grows old.

At the moment Zhou Xiaobai is busy distributing the melons, fruits and cakes specially bought from the town to the villagers. Naturally, everyone should be happy about such a big event as building a house.

Seeing that the firecrackers had been set off, Uncle Yan helped Zhou Gensheng to stick the banner of "Happy Start" on one side, and then called the craftsmen to put the wires and lay the foundation, and shovel the soil to start construction.

Having Uncle Yan Zhou Xiaobai really relieved her worries. These craftsmen were carefully selected by Uncle Yan for her.Zhou Xiaobai is naturally very relieved, but he will not treat them badly in terms of wages.

"Everyone, my house is a trouble to everyone. As long as the house is well built, I will add [-]% to your wages." Zhou Xiaobai said so.

Uncle Yan frowned, this girl really doesn't know how to save, people's wages are fixed, why did she add those!But this is other people's business, and it's not easy for me to intervene, so I can only tell those masters to redouble their efforts.

But even without his instructions, the craftsmen were full of energy when they heard that if the house was built well, they could pay more.

Looking at the blind date in the village, when Zhou Xiaobai said this, he was very envious.It's all regret that I didn't learn this good business, otherwise Zhou Xiaobai would have to take care of the folks in the village because of the work of building a house.

"Xiaobai, if you have any problems at home in the future, just say it quickly. Anyway, your uncle and I don't have anything to do at home. Although nothing else can be done, you still have a lot of strength." Zhou Dashu on the side couldn't see it, so talking.

Then several uncles and aunts echoed, "Yes, yes, we have nothing to do at home."

Everyone saw that Zhou Xiaobai was generous and kind. If she helped her with something, she would definitely not tell herself to empty-handed.Zhou Xiaobai nodded one by one. What she lacks now is people. Anyway, they are all from her own folks. Help if you can.

Chen Mo on the other side looked a little blind, curled his lips, and muttered in his heart, these people are all white-eyed wolves. When my family was hungry before, I never saw them talk to me. Now my family's life When they got better, they picked them up one by one.

The craftsmen invited by Uncle Yan all took off their coats and started working barebacked. Although it is spring, the temperature has not risen too high, but they are full of energy, full of enthusiasm, and full of enthusiasm.

Suddenly there was a sound like a broken gong in the crowd, and a fat woman squeezed in from the crowd, still yelling, "Oh, niece, why don't you tell me about this big house?" Say?"

It turned out that the people who came were Luo Shi and Zhou Luquan.

When Zhou Xiaobai went to the village head yesterday, he also thought about whether he should go to his second uncle's house.But thinking about the faces of their family, I didn't even bother to perfunctory, so I didn't want to go, but she still came here today.

Luo Shi usually eats too much and is lazy, waiting for the sun to rise and not getting out of bed, but just now hearing the sound of firecrackers outside disturbed her from falling asleep, so she went out to ask what happened.As soon as he heard that Zhou Xiaobai was going to build a house, first there was a trace of jealousy in his eyes, and then he remembered something, and quickly woke up Zhou Luquan. Before they even had time to wash up, they rushed over, afraid of coming It's too late to take advantage of it.

Today is a very good day, Zhou Xiaobai didn't think of any disputes, seeing that although it was Luo Shi, it was regarded as a greeting, but he turned around and ignored it.

But Luo Shi is so thick-skinned, so naturally she won't be knocked down. She saw that although Zhou Xiaobai didn't want to see her, she still went inside on her own, and unceremoniously grabbed a handful of melon seeds that Zhou Xiaobai had just used for hospitality, I ate it.

"Why do you eat my food casually?" Chen Mo also hated Luo Shi to the extreme, and didn't give her any face at all.

"Hehe." Luo Shi patted Chen Mo's head pretending to be affectionate, "You little brother, our family doesn't talk about two different languages, we are all one family and why should we share with each other? ?”

Chen Mo was about to say something, so he gave Zhou Xiaobai a pull, "It's a good day, don't be as knowledgeable as her."

He grabbed another handful of peanuts and handed them to Luo Shi, wanting to send her away quickly, but unfortunately Luo Shi was still such a dissatisfied person, so he grabbed two more fruits in the basket, and then stood aside and started eating.

The groundbreaking work was almost done, Zhou Gensheng bowed to everyone and thanked them for coming to support him.The bustle was almost over, and all the households dispersed, leaving only a few playful children.

But Luo Shi and Zhou Luquan still refused to leave. Luo Shi looked here with sneaky eyes, seeing that there was nothing else, so he gave up, eating melon seeds in his mouth while saying, "Xiao Bai, why didn't you tell your second uncle about such a big thing as building a house. We are all a family, so let's help if we can. Take a look, if there is anything else you need to do, Me and your second uncle, even if the food at home is no longer grown, we will help you with it."

What she said was very pleasant, but if you really believed her words, you would go to hell.Zhou Xiaobai also did a good job on the surface, and smiled, "Second Aunt, I've already taken care of everything, you and Second Uncle can go and rest."

Uncle Yan was watching over the affairs here, but he had nothing else to do, so he asked Chen Mo to go back and prepare lunch together.

Zhou Luquan looked at Uncle Yan who was busy at one side, feeling upset, and yelled at Zhou Xiaobai, "Niece, why are you letting outsiders watch your house, why don't you tell them all to go, Second Uncle will help you watch. Outsiders I don’t know how much money I’m going to cheat you.” As he spoke, he took Uncle Yan’s hand.

Now Zhou Xiaobai was angry, and waved Zhou Luquan away, "Second Uncle, I have already arranged everything about building a house, so you don't need to stay here, go back and rest."

Zhou Luquan was very upset when Zhou Xiaobai contradicted him face to face, and kept cursing.Over there, Luo Shi pestered Zhou Xiaobai again, "Xiaobai, why don't I go over and make lunch for you, I'm afraid you won't be too busy with so many people."

Zhou Xiaobai said coldly, "No need, I've already made arrangements with Mrs. Yan and Mrs. Zhuangzi."

She didn't even ask herself to make lunch, and Luo Shi's little calculations came to nothing. She thought that she could go to have a good meal and go back with something, but Zhou Xiaobai didn't ask herself to go, "Xiaobai , I'll help you, so hurry up."
