Because brother Sun Dazhu was invited to a new house by Yun Cuihe, almost everyone in Banpo Village knew that Lu Xinghe's house was going to dig a well.
Everyone is waiting to see their jokes.
"Isn't Mrs. Yun crazy? She still digs a well in the terrain of her house?"
"That's right, it needs to be at least three to five meters higher to be level with our foundation. It's weird that water can come out of such a high terrain."
"I don't know who came up with the idea. Isn't this harmful? It takes at least 20 to 30 meters to dig a well, and it costs several taels of silver. What can you do with this money? If you have to drill it, you can't get water. Well?"
Some people even patted their chests and said nonsense, "Look, if water comes out, I will eat all the soil they dug out."
Everyone burst into laughter.
"Okay, we'll all watch you eat dirt then."
…
The day when Zi Ren invites his uncle, grandma and family to have dinner is also the day when Lu Xinghe and his family move into their new house.
In the past few days, things from the old house have been gradually transferred to the new house. From now on, you can stay in the new house at night without having to travel between the old house and the new house.
Chu Yue and Yun Cuihe were busy in the kitchen early in the morning, while Lu Xingan helped light the fires for the two stoves. Many people who came to watch the excitement smelled the aroma of stew wafting from the kitchen and swallowed hard.
In addition to the stewed meat, the two of them were afraid that they would not have enough to eat, so they also pinched a large handful of green garlic and fried a bowl of braised pork, as well as a large bowl of fried fat intestines and a large bowl of cabbage.
In the past, the eldest uncle and the second uncle also invited their family to have dinner after the house was built. Now that they have built a house, they are no exception.
However, the three sisters-in-law did not come empty-handed. The eldest aunt brought twenty eggs, the second aunt brought ten kilograms of brown rice, and the fourth aunt gave a piece of soft cotton cloth, which I estimate can be used for two sets of clothes.
As soon as these families arrived, the new house became even more lively.
Lu Tiesheng looked around the yard with his hands behind his back, sometimes visiting the chicken coop, sometimes looking at the vegetable patch, sometimes running to the well that hadn't been dug too deep to take a look.
If you see an acquaintance passing by outside, you will be very enthusiastic and almost everyone will say hello.
"Hey! Old Sun, have you eaten? I'm eating meat at my third daughter-in-law's house today. How is the house at my third daughter-in-law's house? Is it in good repair?"
"Hey! Sister-in-law Hu also came to see my third daughter-in-law's house. Is the house repairable? I helped guard the bricks for more than half a month."
Many people saw his complacency, glanced at him, and left in a hurry.
But Lu Tiesheng didn't seem to care about other people's expressions, he just kept intoxicated in his own world and never tired of it.
There were many people at noon, so they divided two tables for dinner, one for men, and one for women and children. Two jugs of wine were placed on the men's tables, and a jug was placed on the women's and children's tables. Everyone drank while drinking. Chatting and laughing while eating, it was so lively.
"Third brother and sister, you have finally come to the end of your hardships. I really didn't expect that you could actually build such a magnificent blue brick house." Sister-in-law Tian Chunyan looked at the decent blue brick house in front of her and felt a little uncomfortable. Son.
The conditions were obviously much worse than mine before, so why did they build a house made of bricks and tiles?
"Third brother and sister, you are here today. My sister-in-law wants to say sorry to you."
The second sister-in-law, Zhao Guiqin, had a blush on her face because she had drunk some wine. As her voice fell, the chattering and laughing crowd suddenly became quiet.
She took advantage of the wine to gain courage and continued, "We all have our own families, and as humans, we are always running around for our own three-quarters of an acre of land, so I was really harsh on your family in the past. I hope you will not forget the little ones." As a human being, don't behave like a petty-minded person like my sister-in-law."
Yun Cuihe said hurriedly, "What did the second sister-in-law say? If I really cared, I wouldn't invite you here today. It's all for the sake of my own family. I understand, everyone has their own difficulties."
If a person does not serve himself, he will be destroyed by heaven and earth.
After all, now that the family has been separated, she can only maintain basic decency with them for the sake of the Xinghe brothers. It is impossible for her to do anything for these families.
But just keep these things in mind, and there is no need to say them out loud.
As Yun Cuihe finished speaking, the courtyard became lively again.
Lu Tiesheng raised his wine glass and said, "Well, in this life, the old man hopes to see one of his children prosperous. Ever since the third son passed away, I haven't been so happy for a long time. The third daughter-in-law has contributed a lot to it. Come on." , let’s keep drinking!”
Wang Xuelan rubbed her eyes with emotion after hearing Lu Tiesheng's words, but since it was a happy day, she held back her emotions and did not let them out.
At this moment, Jiang Xiuqin's seven-year-old son shook her arm.
"Mom, my head feels so dizzy."
Jiang Xiuqin looked at her son and saw that his face was turning red and he was weak. He was weakly leaning on her arm. She immediately blushed.
"Xiaowei, what's wrong with you? Don't scare me, Xiaowei."
Because of this movement, everyone stopped using their chopsticks and looked in the direction of Lu Xiaowei with worried faces.
"Yo! What's going on?"
Wang Xuelan was shocked, stood up hurriedly, and walked towards Xiaowei's direction.
Chu Yue and Lu Xiaowei were sitting at the same table. Seeing that the child's expression was wrong, they hurriedly stood up and probed his forehead, then picked up the empty cup in front of Lu Xiaowei and smelled it.
"Xiaowei, were you drinking just now?"
Lu Xiaowei frowned in great discomfort, "I saw everyone was drinking, and thought it tasted good, so I drank a small cup. Mom, I feel so uncomfortable."
Jiang Xiuqin's face was filled with distress, "You little monkey, how can a child drink alcohol? How can this be a good thing?"
Seeing this, Chu Yue hurriedly went to the kitchen to pour a glass of water and handed it to Jiang Xiuqin, "Don't worry, fourth aunt. In Xiaowei's situation, just give him more soup and water to eliminate the alcohol. Fortunately, it's just a small cup." , we must keep a close eye on him from now on and don’t let him drink again.”
Jiang Xiuqin nodded in response while feeding Lu Xiaowei water.
At another table, Lu Shoucheng looked at Zhang Zheng.
"Doctor Zhang, can you please go and take a look at my son?"
Zhang Zheng smiled, looking confident, "Don't worry, the girl's handling method is very appropriate. Your child will be fine."
Since Dr. Zhang said this, everyone breathed a sigh of relief and continued eating and drinking.
Jiang Xiuqin gave Lu Xiaowei a large glass of water and fed him a bowl of soup. He drank until he had to relieve his hands two or three times before letting him go to sleep.
Seeing that she still had a sad look on her face, Chu Yue said with relief, "If Fourth Aunt is really worried, you can let Xiaowei sleep at my house. If there is any problem, my master will be there."
Yun Cuihe also nodded and said, "That's okay. Let's put him to sleep in Xingpingxing's house. When he wakes up and is fine, we can ask him to go home."
