"Fourth Aunt, shut up now. You don't even know what Tianhe is used for. You are using it blindly!"
Yang Ruoqing rubbed her arms with goosebumps and complained about Mrs. Liu.
"The Tianhe River is a river used by the Queen Mother to block the meeting of the Cowherd and the Weaver Girl."
"Do our two families have that kind of relationship? Please pull him down quickly, it's disgusting!"
Mr. Liu laughed and glanced straight into the Luo family's yard.
Yang Ruoqing also followed and glanced into her yard.
A ridiculous idea suddenly came to my mind.
Fourth Aunt...doesn't she have any thoughts about the blacksmith uncle?
Ah, bah, bah, don't scare me!
This is something that will destroy your outlook on life. It’s so terrifying!
You know, the fourth aunt went to the cotton fields with her uncle Yang Huaan more than 20 years ago.
Kang Xiaozi was the result of the two of them digging into the cotton field.
"Fourth Uncle, come here quickly and pull Fourth Aunt over. She is pestering me about the shared courtyard wall again!"
Thinking of this, Yang Ruoqing directly used her killing move to summon the divine dragon Yang Huaming.
Over there, Yang Huaming and Kang Xiaozi, father and son, were walking around in the field with the three brothers of the Li family.
Five men were discussing and gesticulating there.
"This is the front yard. The front yard doesn't need to be too big. It's enough to plant two trees for shade. I want to leave room for the back yard."
"I want the main room to be straight and seamless, including the kitchen, the dining hall, the warehouse, the main room, and the bedrooms for me and Mr. Liu."
"There are five wing rooms on the left and right sides of the backyard. From now on, brothers Kang Xiaozi and Tiedan will live across from each other. Each of them will occupy two wing rooms. The two wing rooms will be opened in the middle to make a suite..."
"The remaining three wing rooms on the left and right sides are all turned into guest rooms."
"My daughters, son-in-law, grandson, and granddaughter all have a place to live when they come back..."
Following Yang Huaming's talk, among the three brothers of the Li family, Li Dalang was responsible for communicating with Yang Huaming.
Li Erlang held a wooden board in one hand and a black charcoal pen in the other, writing and drawing on it simultaneously...
And Li Sanlang was carrying a bag of lime powder and the like.
Under the command of his two brothers, Li Sanlang spread lime powder evenly on the field.
At the beginning of spring, the black frozen soil begins to soften, and new green gradually appears on the ground.
White lime powder is sprinkled on top, which makes it clearer and more obvious.
After going around, a rough foundation map was gradually sketched out.
This is the drawing on the ground.
Later, we will dig the foundation along the lime marks on the ground and do drainage...ωω
After the foundation is dug, the house can be built on the foundation.
So everyone says that when a tall building rises from the ground, whether it is building a house or building a human being, the foundation must be solid.
Otherwise, it will collapse easily!
Several men here were discussing vigorously. Yang Huaming did not go to the Taoist temple for this reason, and Kang Xiaozi also postponed his visit to the town to open the tile market stall.
Everyone just wants to get things done at home first.
As a result, Yang Ruoqing shouted, and several people looked over at the same time.
I saw Yang Ruoqing staring here with a dark face.
Beside her stood Mrs. Liu.
Mrs. Liu chuckled and stomped her feet on the ground, looking a little embarrassed and guilty.
When Yang Huaming saw Mrs. Liu's look and heard what Yang Ruoqing had just shouted, a smile condensed on his face.
He said to the three brothers of the Li family beside him: "Wait for me, I'll go over and tell my mother-in-law something."
The three brothers of the Li family nodded and continued to stand or squat on the homestead.
Studying, discussing, gesturing...
Yang Huaming strode to Yang Ruoqing and Liu.
He glared at Mrs. Liu with a dark face: "What's the matter with you? We've agreed that we can't share the courtyard wall, why can't you understand?"
Mrs. Liu laughed along and said, "I just asked casually, but I didn't expect to make Qing'er unhappy."
Yang Ruoqing: "No one would be happy. The ten-step-one-drainage project in my house was completed with a lot of effort."
"Fourth aunt has to share the courtyard wall when you come up. I don't object to letting you rub against the courtyard wall, but what about the drainage in my house that I spent a lot of money and effort on?"
"Where will the water be discharged? Are you happy with it being discharged into your yard?"
"If you are willing, I will agree to let you circle this area without saying a word!"
Mrs. Liu didn't need to think about it, her head was shaking like a rattle.
All fools know that there are some taboos in building a house.
The first one is that your home should not touch nearby ponds or big trees.
Some people like to take advantage of small things. When building a house, they see a big tree next to it, like an old tree.
So I suddenly had the idea to extend the yard and encircle the ancient trees into my yard for my own use.
Bad results quickly emerged.
There used to be a family like this in Zhengjia Village. They were a prosperous family.
Even after several brothers got married, they did not separate their families.
A large courtyard encompasses a large ancient tree next to the homestead into its own courtyard.
As a result, the women in the family came out to pour water in the yard at night, or went to the kitchen to get something.
As soon as I looked up, I saw towering old trees with lush branches and leaves, blocking the moonlight at night, making the yard pitch black.
On the branches of the trees, the shadows always seemed to be hiding something.
The children at home also cry inexplicably, have fevers, and become sick.
The men also had trouble doing things, and the family was in a state of unrest.
There was an old man in the village who knew what was going on and said,
It is said that it is best not to take possession of an old tree like this.
When the time comes, the cause and effect of this ancient tree will be touched.
The family didn't believe it and thought it was just a tree.
It's just that it grows longer than other trees and its branches are thicker.
A tree is just a tree, and it can’t speak or curse, so what else can it do for cause and effect?
If you don't chop it up and make firewood, that would be considered a mercy!
As a result, in the summer of that year,
Probably around the time of the Ghost Festival, there was a thunderstorm behind the house, black clouds rolled in the sky, and strong winds blew.
Suddenly the heavy rain poured down, and it was like there was a hole in the sky.
That rainwater is rushing to the ground!
There was lightning and thunder, one after another.
The lightning was green, and it flashed so hard that it hurt the eyes.
The sound of thunder is like Mr. Thunder hitting the back of your head with a lightning hammer.
No matter how hard-working the farmer is, he is so scared that he hides at home and does not dare to work in the fields.
Elderly people say that such thunderstorms and heavy rains are too rare.
Something is wrong, something is not right at all, something must have happened somewhere, God has sent a punishment!
Lightning, thunder, and violent storm lasted for an hour and then ended.
After the rain, the sky clears, the grass and trees are green, and the air is fresh.
Everyone emerged from their homes one after another, looking around with awe of nature, repairing the doors, windows and roofs that were damaged in the heavy rain...
At this time, someone discovered that the house at the entrance of Zhengjia Village, which had a big tree enclosed in the yard, was burning with flames and black smoke billowing into the sky!
When everyone rushed to rescue him, it was already too late.
