Chapter 69

When they arrived at Xinghua village where the Guo family was located, they called their village head and told them the whole story again. Guo Xiang gave a sum of money, the two families broke off their relationship and moved their registered permanent residence by the way.

Write down the severance letter, sign by both sides, and the village heads on both sides will be witnesses. After that, they will die of old age and don't communicate with each other.

Guo Xiang also gave money on the spot, took the Hukou book to the village committee to open a certificate, went to the police station, even if it was done.

After two days, I took Gu's household register to the police station and wrote down my name, which officially became a member of Gu's family.

When he got the Hukou book, Guo Xiang was in a complicated mood. He didn't know whether it was a good thing or a bad thing.

When I got to the town, I took out the 200 yuan sent by Gu Zhennan.

Naturally, the money was to be given to Wang Guiying. Guo Xiang took two hundred yuan from himself and handed it to Wang Guiying to ask her to repair the house.

Although she still has a lot of money, she dare not give too much at a time. Wang Guiying has no culture and is afraid of being cheated at that time.

"Mom, I think you'd better give the money to your sister-in-law. You can't read. You have to keep an account when you build a house. How do you remember?" Guo'er said.

"This..." Wang Guiying is a little embarrassed. The money hasn't covered the heat yet, but she also knows that Guo Er is right, and her daughter-in-law is so good that she doesn't worry about her hiding.

"Mom, just take care of Zhendong. He has culture and has no problem managing accounts. Besides, the school hasn't started yet. Let's hurry up. Maybe we can repair the house before he goes back to school." Guo Xiang said.

Because Wang Guiying is not going to push down all the houses and rebuild them, she wants to push the mud wall and build a brick wall. The wooden room inside doesn't move, so the foundation doesn't have to move. It's a big deal to reinforce it at that time. Therefore, it won't take a few days to build the wall.

She mainly doesn't want to be too high-profile and make people jealous. In addition, she is afraid of spending money and being poor.

It's better to buy more food than to save money.

Guo Xiang doesn't care. The wooden house is also very comfortable. The whole cement is still hot.

Finally, it was agreed that the ground would be poured with cement, so it would be much cleaner. It would not often step on a foot of mud. It would also be convenient to clean it. Just flush it with water directly.

Ji Changlin also started to build it. It's really made of wood. Even the floor is higher. It's made of wood. It's distinctive and clean.

Everyone came to inquire when they heard that Gu's family was going to repair the house. It was said that Gu Zhennan sent money back. They were very envious.

But I can't envy you. Who's to say that I don't have a son who is a worker.

Wang Guiying said that the food pipe who helped repair the house returned the money, and a large number of people volunteered.

In the past, most people used to build Adobe houses. Because they were purely manual work, they usually helped each other. Today I help you and tomorrow you help me, so generally they don't pay money and just care about food.

But this time, the family built brick houses and needed skilled plasterers. Most people couldn't do it. Of course, they had to pay.

However, Wang Guiying is not willing to use bricks for the outer wall, but rather clay adobe, so she has to hire some helpers.

But when we work together, some people have money, others have no money, and we don't think it makes sense, so we all take care of food. We spend more money on mud and water work and less money on walls.

Two skilled plasterers and several strong young men were selected to take care of the family.

Guo Xiang was also watching the excitement.

It was nothing strange that she had seen brick walls in her previous life. It was the first time she had seen mud walls.

It turned out that he went to the mountains to pull the yellow mud back, and then put a box like mold nailed with wood on the foundation of the stone base, and add the yellow mud to the mold.

Add an appropriate amount of water to increase the viscosity, and then several young men punch on it with huge wooden stakes, which is solid, half a meter and half a meter, so as to build a wall.

This is pure strength work. The wall should be pressed tightly, otherwise it will easily collapse in the rain.

The top should be covered with a layer of tiles or plastic film and straw to avoid being washed by water.

The brick wall was built quickly and finished in a few days.

Guo Xiang asked them to paint the walls white inside and outside, so that the house is bright and beautiful outside.

The brick wall is finished, but the fence is not built yet.

Guo Xiang simply asked the masters to pour cement on the ground in the yard, so that the whole house is like a new one, and it is much more convenient to dry rice in the yard.

Wang Guiying had other opinions, but she had nothing to say about the convenience of drying millet in the future.

In this way, Gu Zhendong really repaired the house before going to school.

The people in the village came to visit one after another, envious.

During this period, the state also sent some subsidies, but only a few dozen yuan per family. Generally, people can repair the collapsed mud wall, buy some household goods, and then look at Gu's new house. It's really greedy.

In fact, it is not completely new, but the wooden walls inside are also brushed very clean. In addition, the wall is so white and the ground is so flat, just like a new one.

"Our house is so beautiful!" Guo'er sighed, "it's like a new one!"

"Almost new!" Gu Zhendong also praised.

They never expected to live in such a good house.

It was only after my sister-in-law came that these changes took place.

Although the eldest brother had a salary in the past, the whole family lived a tight life in order to pay off the debt, and there was not much left every month.

And the eldest brother is not young. He also wants to marry a daughter-in-law and bride price. Although he may not want so much, he doesn't want to take out money to build a house so soon.

I don't know what kind of person my sister-in-law will be. If she is a person who takes care of her mother's family, the eldest brother's money may be nothing to them, and there may be a separation.

But when sister-in-law Guo Xiang came, she changed too much. Although she owed a debt, she paid it off and built a house. Even her old brother didn't have the ability.

So they thought it was the sister-in-law who brought good luck to the big brother.

"Sister in law, I feel so happy now!" Guo'er hugged Guo Xiang and looked up at her with a look of admiration.

Guo Xiang smiled and touched Guo er's little brain. Suddenly, there was a sense of achievement that his sister-in-law was like a mother.

"It will be better in the future!" Guo Xiang said.

"Well, I will!" Guo'er nodded hard. She knew her sister-in-law would say it.

After the summer vacation, Gu Zhendong also had to go to school. Wang Guiying also filled him with some rice, some sweet potatoes and edible kimchi as usual. But I brought him some eggs this time.

Then he gave ten yuan. When the food was finished, he could only buy it at school.

Guo Xiang quietly gave Gu Zhendong 20 yuan. He was surprised, "sister-in-law, I can't use so much!"

"This is my sister-in-law's own money. Don't worry. There's still money to help foreigners last time! " Guo Xiang was afraid that he deliberately mentioned it.

"It's time for you to grow up. Don't save and eat more. You see, your big brother is so tall. You're a little worse." Guo Xiang said.

Gu Zhendong blushed. Yes, his eldest brother is 1.85 meters. He is only 1.72 meters now. Even if he can grow for another two years, he can't grow to 1.8 meters. How can he be so different from the same parents?

"Take part in more sports activities at school, play more basketball and grow!" Guo Xiang smiled.

"Well, listen to your sister-in-law." Gu Zhendong nodded.

"Study hard at school. Don't worry about home. There is a sister-in-law at home." Guo Xiang added.

Gu Zhendong nodded and his eyes were a little red. "My sister-in-law took more trouble at home!"

Guo Xiang suddenly felt a little wordy. He really looked like an old mother. He spoke more than Wang Guiying.

I can't help giggling.
