After Yang Huazhou invited everyone to have a sumptuous meal, a decision was made.
The fifth house is planning to build a new house.
The money used to build a new house was the compensation money from the Cao family.
Yang Huazhou, together with Old Yang Tou and Yang Huazhong, planned to encircle a piece of land next to Sun's house and build a two-passage courtyard similar to Sun's house.
In front are the main room and the east and west wing rooms. The east wing room is used as a sleeping room for Yang Huazhou and Bao Suyun, and the west wing room is used for old Yangtou and Tan family.
There are also three rooms side by side in the backyard, one for Dabao, one for Mianmian, and one that is empty as a guest room.
The toilet and pigsty are at the back of the yard, and there is a backyard separated from the residents' houses. In the backyard, Bao Suyun will plant a vegetable garden and dig a well.
The stove and woodshed are on the side of the main house in the front yard.
"I asked Qing'er's uncle about a lot of things about this. The trip to Qing'er's uncle's house cost nearly sixty taels of silver. That's because they had to knock out a lot of furniture."
"Dazhi and Huangmao are getting married next year, so the expenses for decorating the wedding room, making the wedding bed and wardrobe are all included."
"My children here are still young, so I can save some money on this. The total cost for this trip is about forty taels."
"Including the money spent to buy the land, it's all sixty taels of silver!" Yang Huazhou said excitedly.
Old Yang was very relieved to hear that when Yang Huazhou was building a new house with five rooms, he specially reserved the west wing for himself and his wife.
So, he pulled out the dry tobacco stick in his mouth, thought about it carefully, and said: "This is a good plan. If you move out of the old house and build a new house at the entrance of the village, then the land in the backyard will be able to accommodate four bedrooms. Build a new house and use it for them.”
"It's just that the wages of your craftsmen are included in the sixty taels of silver?" Old Yangtou asked again.
Yang Huazhou nodded, "It's all included. The team of craftsmen, the cooking part, the Sun family is in the front. When the time comes, I will just copy the gourd and draw the gourd, even the original team can do it!"
Old Yangtou nodded again, "That's good. If you don't understand anything, just ask Uncle Qing'er and Gong Qing'er."
"They are all real relatives of my family, and they are all good people!"
Yang Huazhou nodded repeatedly, "That's for sure. Today is mid-October of the lunar calendar. I've thought about it. If we make preparations in the past few days, I might be able to move into a new house to celebrate the New Year in the twelfth lunar month."
"Even if the rain and snow weather delays the process and the twelfth lunar month cannot be entered, the first lunar month is still stable."
"Dad, third brother, what do you think?" Yang Huazhou asked.
Old Yangtou smiled and said: "You have such a thorough plan, so of course I have no objection."
Yang Huazhong also smiled and said: "I just have an opinion."
"Third brother, tell me." Yang Huazhou said.
Yang Huazhong said: "Your fingers are just fine. The doctor said you can't do heavy work within three months."
"Hire a few more craftsmen later and let them do all the work on the construction site. You are not allowed to do it."
"As for you, just watch on the construction site, arrange and make adjustments. I have some free time this winter, so I'll help you!"
Hearing Yang Huazhong's words, Lao Yang nodded repeatedly, "That's right, that's right, your third brother is right, fifth brother, you have to listen!"
"I have nothing to do. I will just squat at the construction site every day."
Yang Huazhou smiled and nodded, "Okay, I'll listen to you, then my father and third brother will have to worry about it."
Yang Huazhong waved his hand, "Family, what are you talking about? OK, then I'll go home for lunch first, and we'll make plans in the afternoon. Let your third sister-in-law accompany Suyun to find Di Xian to have a good time. Let's Just start digging the foundation!”
…
The news that the five-bedroom house was going to be built soon spread throughout Changping Village, and it once again received envious looks.
Of course, there are also jealous people who say sarcastic things.
Everyone said that Yang Huazhou bought the fifth-bedroom house with a piece of his finger and a beating.
However, as soon as this statement was uttered, many people lamented it.
Are these fingers too valuable?
They also wanted to have their fingers chopped off and beaten, so that they could enter the courtyard with such grandeur, but no one gave them a chance.
"I heard that it would cost this much to build the five-bedroom house in Old Yang's house!"
By the pond at the entrance of the village, a voice came from among the women washing themselves.
That's right, this woman's name is Fengzhi, the mother-in-law of Zhou Sheng's family in the village. She gave birth to a son named Bingbing.
Bingbing and Baby Luo were born in the same year, and Bingbing was two months older. The last time the two children had some minor friction, Baby Luo accidentally broke Bingbing's head.
Yang Ruoqing, Luo Fengtang and Tuoba Xian all apologized to Zhou Sheng and Fengzhi, personally sent to the town hospital to bandage the wounds, and bought supplements to replenish Bingbing's body.
Because Fengzhi was washing clothes by the pond when the incident happened, Mrs. Sun washed all of Fengzhi's two large basins of dirty clothes.
The family carefully apologized, but Fengzhi was aggressive and unreasonable.
Yang Ruoqing couldn't bear it anymore and yelled at Fengzhi.
As a result, Fengzhi always held grudges. Not only did she meet Yang Ruoqing's family in the village, she also met the entire old Yang family. She would have turned her face away and turned sideways even though they were a long way away. His eyes looked like he was seeing an enemy of life and death.
The children were playing in the village. Whenever anyone said a few words to Baobao Luo, Fengzhi would sneer at the villager, saying that the person wanted to lick Yang Ruoqing's buttocks.
Fengzhi likes to say slanderous things behind Yang Ruoqing's back about all major issues related to relatives and friends of Yang Ruoqing's family.
He has a big mouth, spreading rumors and causing trouble everywhere.
Well, at this moment, the old Yang family began to arrange five rooms with the women around them.
"My Zhou Sheng said that if anyone was willing to give him sixty taels of silver, he wouldn't even need two of his fingers."
"I told my family Zhou Sheng, do you really think that your finger can turn stone into gold? Why do they give you so much money? Maybe, they also include the money for sleeping with your mother-in-law. It’s inside! Kick, cluck…”
Fengzhi covered her mouth and smiled.
The other women nearby also listened to gossip and were not afraid of getting into trouble. They joked: "Fengzhi, you are so rich, who wants to give you so much money to sleep with you?"
Fengzhi said: "Oh, I'm just trying to make a metaphor. With my body and appearance, I'm afraid no one would sleep with me upside down."
"But, that Bao's face is different. Her face is so white and tender that it can make you pinch water."
"That waist, that chest, tsk tsk, that's what men love! Geez..."
Fengzhi's words caused an uproar among the women around her.
Someone said: "Fengzhi, don't talk nonsense like this. Although we don't have much contact with Bao Suyun, she lives outside with Yang Laowu all year round."
"But sometimes when I meet her in the village, I feel that she is a nice person. She has a low eyebrow and is kind-hearted. She doesn't talk much..." nt
