Chapter 10409
The fence of the fourth house was put up quickly enough. The whole family worked together, and it was almost done in one afternoon.
There is still a gap of nearly eight meters left in the side wall that borders the Luo family.
The reason is that there are not enough fences. Yang Huaming said: "Let's stick it here today. When I go to the Taoist temple tomorrow, I will take the time to pull out two bundles of fences from the mountains behind the Taoist temple."
Ms. Liu waved her hand and said, "Just adjust the fence a little bit. When the time comes, leave a side courtyard door in this place, which will just lead to the ditch here."
It's convenient to go out for washing and other things.
Yang Huaming frowned: "What can you do in this ditch? You have to go to the pond at the entrance of the village to wash clothes. This ditch can't be cleaned."
Mrs. Liu waved her hand: "Urine buckets or something like that. Usually when I plant some vegetables outside the yard, I don't need to go around in a big circle to water them. Let's water them from this side door. It's convenient!"
Yang Huaming thought about it. There must be a front yard door, a backyard door, and a side yard door. The original Yang family's old house had such a layout, which was very convenient.
"Fourth uncle, there's no need for you to go to the mountains to build a fence. The second and third sons will come over in two days to install the yard gate. I'll just ask them to bring two bundles of fences. There are all those kinds of fences in the woods behind our house."
Boss Li came from the backyard carrying a tool box and said to Yang Huaming with a smile.
The house is all built. He came here today to comply with Yang Huaming's request. He used stones to build a pigsty in the backyard, and then used blue rolled stones to build a trough for poultry and livestock.
He could handle these things by himself, so he didn't call his two younger brothers to come over and help.
Because the family still has two acres of fields to take care of, and because the output of the two acres of fields is not enough to support the three brothers’ food and clothing expenses, the three brothers have opened up some wasteland in the mountains.
Today, Boss Li came here to work for his master's family, and he only had to work all afternoon.
The owner doesn’t care about food, nor does he pay wages.
The wages are included in the overall wages for the three brothers to build the house.
Therefore, it is even less possible for Mr. Li to call his two younger brothers over if he can do it by himself.
"Okay, okay, then I will leave this matter to your brothers. Thank you very much!"
Yang Huaming thanked Mr. Li and sent him out.
After Boss Li left, Kang Xiaozi came to Yang Huaming with his hands full of mud, and said with some confusion: "Dad, the Li brothers will bring the fence back later. We can't let people work hard to produce things in vain. How much will it cost?" Do you have to express your feelings?"
Before Yang Huaming opened his mouth, Mr. Liu next to him had already rolled his eyes at Mr. Kang.
"You are really a prodigal son. What do you mean? The wages for these jobs are all included in the general ledger!"
"Our family didn't treat the three of them badly. What if we asked them to give us a few fences? Fences are free. They are everywhere in the mountains and plains. As long as you have the strength and skill!"
"Mom, even if the fence is free of charge, it does take effort and effort to pick it up, right? If you have that time, can't you do something else?"
Yang Huaming nodded: "Kang Xiaozi is right. What's more, this is someone's initiative to help us. It's a good intention. We can't ask for their kindness in vain."
"What do you, father and son, think about it?" Mrs. Liu rolled her eyes, spread her hands, and asked.
"You want to pay separately? Then I don't have any!"
Yang Huaming: "Why do you rely on money for everything? Even if we pay for that little fence, they don't necessarily want it. Instead, they think we look down on them."
"What Dad said makes sense, we'll leave some food for you when the time comes..."
Before Kang Xiaozi could finish his words, he was interrupted hastily by Ms. Liu.
"How much effort does it take to install a courtyard gate to entertain guests? If you work quickly, it will only take a bowl of tea!" Mrs. Liu vetoed Kang Xiaozi's proposal with a flurry of words.
"We'll host a meal, including several meat and vegetable dishes, for free?"
"When our family hired their three brothers to build a house, they paid for it. Now it's their job to install the yard gate, and they asked us to pay extra. Boy Kang, you are so stupid. Why did I give birth to you like this? Stupid son?"
Mr. Liu became more and more angry as he talked about it. Looking at it sideways and vertically, he felt that Kang Xiaozi didn't even look like his biological son.
Kang Xiaozi was also speechless by Mrs. Liu's words. He laughed and said, "Mom, you can't say that. We can't settle petty accounts like this."
"Let me tell you this, when people buy vegetables from me, if the amount reaches five or six cents, I will give them a few green onions or a handful of peeled garlic."
"This way, people will come to your home to buy from a crowd of stalls next time. Sometimes, don't always look at your little stuff and feel like you're at a disadvantage."
"It's a blessing to suffer a small loss, and sometimes you can still make a profit, really!"
Yang Huaming, Liu Jinchuan, He'er and others all nodded when they heard Kang Xiaozi's words.
Yang Huaming even gave Kang Xiaozi a thumbs up: "My son is grand and has the style of our old Yang family!"
Liu Jinchuan looked at Kang Xiaozi with bright eyes, admiration in his eyes. He felt that his man was really grand, and he could grab and spread freely, so good.
As for He'er, I definitely agree, because in the past few years, He'er and Kang Xiaozi have been working together to sell vegetables and fruits!
So Kang Xiaozi's acting style is actually He'er's acting style, both siblings are like this.
However, Mrs. Liu is the one in the family who holds the opposite opinion.
"Oh my god, is this how you all trade now? Then garlic costs no money? Then onions cost no money? We don't grow them ourselves!"
"Not to mention, Mr. Kang and the others are doing a good job in their business, and the money they make is no less than what you made back then!" Yang Huaming said.
Mrs. Liu: "I opened this situation! I paved the way!"
Kang Xiaozi: "Father, mother, this is not the time for us to discuss this. What I want to say is that if Li Laoer and the others come to install the yard gate for us in a few days,
If they really bring us a fence, we can’t let them go back empty-handed, regardless of whether we leave food or not! "
…
Mrs. Liu was so angry that she went to the gutter in advance to wash her hands and left cursing.
On this side, Yang Huaming patted Kang Xiaozi on the shoulder and said, "Don't pay attention to your mother. Your idea is very good, and dad agrees with you."
Then, his eyes fell on Liu Jinchuan and He'er again: "You two will cook when the time comes. It doesn't matter if there are too many dishes or too little. We have to have a correct attitude. They will eat whatever we eat. Do you understand?"
Liu Jinchuan and He'er looked at each other and nodded in unison.
Liu Jinchuan said: "Dad, don't worry, I won't embarrass you!"
He'er also nodded.
When everyone temporarily dispersed and were busy with their own work, He'er's eyes flashed with anticipation, as if there were ten thousand ideas in her mind...
