His father had been silently preparing for the construction of the house. First, they moved to the west wing of Zhang Fengdian's house, which was Zhang Ruilan's house. He was at the front line in North Korea, and his house was empty. The yard was spacious enough to put carts, and there was a barn where animals could be tied up. After buying things to build a house, there was a place to put purlin and Chuanzi. Another advantage was that this place was close to the temple and the housing market. The plot of land where Ah Hui's family was going to build a house was low-lying and needed to be raised with soil. It was convenient to get soil from here and unload the truck. Since last autumn, his father would pull two carts when he was free. By spring, it was almost full. The other preparations were basically ready. Ni Tou's family sent a letter saying that if they built a house next spring, they could get married after autumn. Therefore, his parents went all out and prepared to start construction in the spring.
Soon after the Spring Festival, as soon as the land opened up, construction began.
First, Shi Gezhuang's second uncle came and brought a group of people to the courtyard outside the main gate of the street. They got into position and started carpentry.
His father brought a few people from the village, Zhang Qingguo, Zhang Qingtong, Zhang Fengkui, and others to dig ditches and tamper. A wheel was pushed from the yard and tied up with two long wooden poles. The eight of them raised it high and suddenly let go, causing the ground to shake. His father shouted.
"I've been to both Shandong and Weihai, heh! Hey!"
"The mountains and rivers of China are infinitely beautiful, heh! Hey!"
This was the first family to build a house in Xia Village after the establishment of the new dynasty. No one knew the difficulty of building a house better than his father. However, no one could understand the excitement and excitement of a person who had been begging for food with his mother since he was young and had worked hard for most of his life. He could finally build his own house. He was shouting with tears in his eyes.
Building houses, masons, and helpers. Every day, they would have a meal at noon, which was organized by his mother. By right, those who came to work were either relatives or friends, or close neighbors of the village. No one cared if they ate well or not. Even if he didn't eat, he would still do it. However, his father was a person who cared about his face. If he could afford to build a house, he could not afford to eat. However, he was poor after all. He had money to buy wine, but he did not have money to buy vegetables, rice, or meat. His mother secretly told his brother to borrow some money from Qi Dianzi's second aunt's house and buy some meat from Zhouzhuang Market. Cao Zhuang's cousin, Cao Xianrong, heard this. He hurriedly said to his mother,"There's no need to borrow money. I'll think of a way.”His mother said," No matter what you think of, it's not like you can buy one or two catties. Ask him to go and borrow some money. Buy more. He can't be used every day."”
"I know. I have a way. There's no need to borrow money.”
His mother was also honest. Hearing his cousin say this, she thought that his cousin's family was rich, and borrowing anyone's was borrowing, so she agreed with his cousin's opinion. Moreover, Cousin was not just anyone. He was Eldest Aunt's eldest son, one year younger than Father. When he was young, he had always lived at his grandmother's house. He grew up with his father and uncles. He had a deep relationship with his grandmother's family, especially with his father. He was an honest farmer, but he always wanted to do something for his grandmother's family and uncles. He was especially happy to know that his second uncle was building a house. Because in his memory, his grandmother always lived in a dilapidated house. His second uncle was able to build a new house. This was proof of the change in his grandmother's life and the beginning of the change in his grandmother's family's fate. He was happy from the bottom of his heart, just like he was going to build a house. Therefore, he rushed over early in the morning. First, he helped to pack up the things, and then he used the wheel to smash the hammer. When he found out that he was short of money to buy meat, his first reaction was: Don't worry, I have a little pig at home. Although it's not fat enough, it can be used. If he needed it now, he would use it now. There was no need for that now. When the pigs grew fat, the houses would be built. Therefore, he decided to go home immediately and get the little pig.
When he passed by the ditch mansion on his way home, his cousin even brought Cui Dalin, who was slaughtering pigs. When she got home, her cousin-in-law looked at her and was stunned. She asked,"Didn't you go to Second Uncle's house to build a house? Why are you back?”
The cousin said,"Kill our pig. Second Uncle needs it so quickly find two ropes and tie the pig."”
Cousin's wife was a reasonable and righteous rural woman. He had ideas when doing things, and his hands and feet were swift and happy. However, she knew her cousin's character. He was meticulous in his work and cautious in his words. He would not say what he could not do and would do what he said. He was reliable and decisive and had never made a mistake. Therefore, cousin-in-law was absolutely at ease with cousin and always kept her word. However, today, she raised a question and said,"" The pig is only a hundred catties. When it was growing, I killed it…"
Cousin didn't wait for her to finish and said," Second Uncle's place is waiting to be used now. We can't wait until the pig grows fat.”As she spoke, she took the rope from her cousin-in-law and began to catch the pig. Cousin's wife had to use a big pot to boil water.
Master Cui Dalin of the ditch house was also good at cooking. The pigs were cleaned up quickly and cleanly. In less than a meal, his cousin pushed the wheelbarrow and sent the meat to the construction site.
When his parents found out that his cousin had killed a pig that was fattening and was not enough, they were very touched and also very regretful. "His cousin's always so sincere," said his mother."Never forget him!”
