Chapter 231

Xie Yunjin's cheeks burned involuntarily after listening to the villagers' ridicule, and her eyes couldn't help looking at Lu Jiao.

Lu Jiao really wanted to roll her eyes, but she held back, as if she didn't hear, she walked over to tell the women in the village what to eat and what to do for lunch.

Seeing Lu Jiao's appearance, Xie Yunjin tried her best to appear calm, but her heart was still almost invisible, but she didn't show it on her face. She walked over and asked a few people to go up the mountain to find the stone that Lu Jiao said.

Lu Jiao also went up the mountain with a few others. The four little guys wanted to go, but Lu Jiao stopped them.

"Mother and your second uncle went up the mountain to look for rocks. They don't have time to take you. When you are free, Mother will take you up the mountain to play."

The four little guys nodded sensiblely immediately, Lu Gui led them out to play, and Lu Jiao went up the mountain with the others.

There are many stones with holes on the mountain, but there are almost no stones with holes all around.

Lu Jiao knew that it would be impossible to simply find a stone with holes, so she could only choose a square stone with holes, and then use a hand drill to drill two or three holes, that's all.

Lu Jiao looked at Xie Erzhu and Duo Jin and the others and said, "Let's search separately, it will be faster."

Xie Erzhu was a little worried about Lu Jiao, and said with concern: "Then let me and my third sister-in-law look for it together."

Lu Jiao refused, Xie Erzhu followed her words, how could she drill holes.

"Second brother, don't worry about me. I often go up the mountain alone to collect herbs. Let's search separately. It's easier to find stones."

After hearing Lu Jiao's words, Xie Erzhu remembered the matter of the third sister-in-law's great strength, so she didn't insist anymore, but she still didn't forget to remind Lu Jiao.

"Then be careful."

After talking about the several people looking for stones separately, Lu Jiao had already set her sights on a square stone. When the people around her left, she immediately ran over and lifted the square stone into the space.

The hand drill was a spare that she kept in the space before. As a military doctor, she has all the necessary tools for survival in the wild.

It's time to use it.

The stone that Lu Jiao chose was bluestone. Although bluestone is not as hard as granite, it is not like limestone, which breaks when drilled.

However, although the bluestone was quite hard, it couldn't withstand the power of the electric drill. Lu Jiao quickly drilled a few holes, and then carried the stone out of the space.

As soon as she got out of the space, she yelled towards the surroundings: "Second Brother, Brother Xu, Brother Lin, come and see, there is a stone here that can be used."

In order to prevent people from seeing the rock's upside down, Lu Jiao drilled from east to west when drilling, making the holes in the stone as natural as possible.

So Xie Erzhu, Jin and others looked at it, but they didn't suspect that the stone was drilled out by man-made. They just marveled at Lu Jiao's good luck.

"Yun Jin's daughter-in-law is really lucky."

"Yeah, we didn't find it after searching for so long, but she found it as soon as she looked."

Xie Erzhu said proudly: "My third sister-in-law has always been lucky, the kind who can pick up money while walking."

Lu Jiao turned around and looked at Xie Erzhu with a black face. Is this still the honest and dull second brother of their family? How did she become a brainless blow.

"Second brother, since we found the stone, let's go down the mountain quickly."

"it is good."

This time, Lu Jiao was not asked to carry the stone, but Jin and Lin Erdan's fathers carried it down the mountain.

Although Lu Jiao can easily hug her, as a woman, she should not steal the man's business, it will make the men lose face.

In the small courtyard of Xie's family, everyone was amazed when they saw the stones that Lu Jiao and the others had recovered: "My God, there are really holes in the stones. Why didn't we think of using stones to ram the foundation before?"

"The foundation rammed out of this stone must be much heavier than that made of wood."

"Yun Jin, if I turn around to lay the foundation for my house, can I borrow it from yours?"

Xie Yunjin nodded in response, but his eyes did not leave the stone, but stared at the hole for a closer look, he always felt that there was something wrong with the hole.

Xie Yunjin was about to take another look, when Lu Jiao was afraid that he would notice the problem with the hole, so she walked up to him and asked, "The stone has been recovered, can we ram the foundation on the east side this afternoon?"

As soon as she said that, Xie Yunjin's attention was diverted, and he turned to look at Lu Jiao: "Well, in the afternoon, we will start to ram the foundation on the east side."

Lu Jiao nodded and asked, "When will the house we live in be pushed?"

Xie Yunjin thought for a while and said: "I think I will knock down the old house here in the afternoon, and tamp down the foundation here tomorrow morning. At that time, the east and west yards will be built together. If the west yard is built first, then the east yard will be built. , it will take a long time."

He wanted to go to the county seat as soon as possible. Apart from helping those students, he also wanted to buy some clothes and jewelry for Lu Jiao.

Seeing that all of them were wearing new clothes, only Lu Jiao was wearing old clothes. Every time he looked at it, he felt it was dazzling, and he couldn't help but think of Lu Jiao's dedication to their father and son.

Originally, he wanted to go to Qili Town to buy, but he felt that the things in Qili Town were not good, so he had to wait until he went to the county to buy.

Xie Yunjin looked at Lu Jiao while thinking, "What do you think?"

As long as Lu Jiao doesn't pay attention to the hole in the stone, she has no idea about the house, and she doesn't live in it.

Lu Jiao smiled and said, "Just make up your mind."

After making it clear that she would not interfere with this matter, Xie Yunjin's mood was affected for no reason after hearing her words, and she became a little silent.

Lu Jiao has already turned around and busy with other things.

It took only two days for the foundation of Xie's house to be laid. Two days later, Han Tong led people to pull the blue bricks to Xie's village.

People from inside and outside Xiejia Village ran out to watch the lively scene, and many people came forward to touch the blue bricks out of curiosity: "This is the green brick."

"A house made of green bricks is solid."

"In the future, our family will also build green brick houses."

"I heard that such a house will not break down for decades."

"What decades, it will never be broken."

Xie Yunjin and Lu Jiao called Han Tong into the house to drink water.

Han Tong was going to take the college exam in September, and Xie Yunjin was very sorry for bothering him at this time.

"Han Tong, thank you for your trouble, I shouldn't bother you at this time."

Han Tong looked at Xie Yunjin with a happy smile and said, "Yun Jin, what are you talking about? Do we still need such a relationship? And I wish you could go to the county seat immediately. You can guide me when you go to the county seat, and I will be even more so." I'm confident to take the exam in September."

After finishing speaking, Han Tong took a sip of water and continued: "In order to help you build the yard as soon as possible, I not only brought green bricks here this time, but also brought four or five craftsmen over to help you build the house."
