Chapter 44 Getting ready to build a house

"What? Do you still have such ability?" Li didn't believe what Jiang Ning said at all. This bragging must be realistic, right? Do you think she is stupid?

Jiang Ning shrugged helplessly, "If you don't believe it, just ask Ye Zi and Erdan. They all eat the dishes cooked by Da Tou these days. They know best whether Da Tou has this ability!"

Auntie, don’t blame me for not giving it to you. It’s just that Qian’s nasty stuff is too noisy. I can cause trouble once I give it to you. Even if she doesn’t mind, I’ll get annoyed! "

After hearing this, Mrs. Li's inexplicable anger was half gone. She actually went to Liu Ye and Yang Erdan in person to verify whether the children were lying. She could tell at a glance whether the children were lying. She was happy when she saw that the two children were telling the truth. got up.

Jiang Ning reminded: "Mom, it's okay for you and dad to know about this, but don't yell outside. Our family is still waiting for a large portion of the monthly money to build a house! If the people in the village find out, our family's little money will not be enough." It will definitely be saved!”

Mrs. Li snorted angrily, "You think I'm as careless as you and say everything to others! Remember to tell us about such big things in the future, so we don't have to find out what happened from other people's mouths. What a shame!”

Li gave Jiang Ning a lesson and immediately went to help Liu Ye work in the fields.

Jiang Ning looked at it, took a straw hat for Mrs. Li and went back to make lime.

Without Yang Datou as an adult labor force, it would be difficult for Jiang Ning and Yang Erdan to get the oysters back, so Jiang Ning had to pay Yang Han to help.

The lime powder fired here reaches a certain amount and can be mixed into the clay to make the adobe.

Yang Erdan tried several times, got the best ratio, and began to pound the adobes vigorously. The yard, which was originally spacious enough to play football, was filled with these messy things. The autumn harvest had not yet come, and the adobes saved at home were already piled up. The hut can probably hold two to three rooms.

At the moment, everyone is busy working in the fields, and no one really has time to come over and help.

Jiang Ning thought about it and thought of a person-Yang Xiao.

She is kind to the family, and they will not be so resistant to her. What's more important is that Yang Yong can build a house, and he can't do heavy work in the fields because of his injury. She asked others to come over to guide her and then do some light work. Yang Yong shouldn't be able to reject.

Early the next morning, Jiang Ning went to Yang Yong's house with his dried oysters.

Zhang was stunned for a moment when she saw her coming to the door, and then enthusiastically invited her into the house.

Jiang Ning handed the basket to Mrs. Zhang and said with a smile: "These are the oysters I dried myself. They are very nourishing for the body. They are very nourishing when eaten in porridge. This is how my mother's family eats them."

Zhang had never seen oysters, but she smelled the fishy smell of the sea and the salty smell. After drying, the smell was much lighter, so Zhang could still accept it.

She was too embarrassed to answer and kept refusing.

Jiang Ning hurriedly said: "Actually, I came here today to ask brother Yang Yong for help. You also know what our family is like. Now we have finally saved some adobe bricks to build a house, and everyone in the village is busy with the autumn harvest. , I guess no one came over, I thought about it, it seems that Brother Yang Yong is not working in the field, can you ask him to come to my house to help build a house? You don’t have to worry, he doesn’t have to do heavy work, we can come, but we need someone to guide on site. , do you think it’s ten cents a day?”

Ms. Zhang was so frightened that she stood up and said, "If you want to help me, just take care of one meal. Why should I pay for it!"

"We will definitely take care of the food, and we have to give you the money. How can you hire someone to work for free without paying! Do you think brother Yang Yong can do it? If he can, I will go over to help tomorrow. If not, I will have to find a solution with my parents-in-law. "Jiang Ning was a little anxious.

Zhang agreed without even telling Yang Yong, "I'll ask him to go there early tomorrow morning."

Jiang Ning was overjoyed. After leaving Zhang's house, he felt relaxed and walked towards the old house.

Zhang went into the room and told Yang Yong about the situation. Yang Yong frowned, "What can I do now? I'm like a waste. I only need to take care of one meal, but I can't accept money from others!"

Had Jiang Ning not loaned him money in time for medical treatment that day, the consequences would have been disastrous. He has always remembered this kindness!

Mrs. Zhang nodded repeatedly, "That's what I said too, but Big Tou's mother is getting more and more creative and considerate in her work. I guess we won't agree even if we don't accept her. Please go over and help her as much as possible, and do as much work as you can."

Yang Yong nodded slightly.

Jiang Ning entered the old house and told Old Man Yang and Mrs. Li about building a house. Mrs. Li occasionally went to the east of the village during this period. Knowing that Jiang Ning was saving adobe bricks, she felt confident and immediately said: "We will go there tomorrow. , Are you too busy to come here? If not, let me help you."

Although the work in the fields is very important, it’s not impossible to find time, it’s just that it will be very tiring.

Jiang Ning immediately grinned and said, "The more people, the better. If I can find someone here, just call me. I'll give you ten cents for a day's work, five cents for half a day, and food is included!"

Ms. Li was not happy when she heard this, "It's not like you can lose money if you have money! Who can build a house and ask someone to pay so much?"

Jiang Ning frowned, "But I've already agreed with brother Yang Yong that we can't give more to outsiders, but our own family will be given less!"

Li felt that she couldn't get up or down, and she didn't want to talk to Jiang Ning.

When Yang Laosan came back, Mrs. Li told him the situation, "Starting from tomorrow, you will go to the field and help half the day. Your sister-in-law will also pay you five cents for a meal, so I can't lose you!"

Yang Laosan was naturally happy to earn money. When Mrs. Zhou found out, she came over to thank Mr. Li and Old Man Yang.

After things were arranged, Mrs. Li focused on the second room and went to Yang Laoer specifically to say, "Your sister-in-law has saved enough adobe to build a house. Why aren't you in a hurry? Mr. Qian wanders around outside every day. It’s time to find something for her to do!”

When Yang Laoer heard that Da Fang had saved enough adobe bricks, he would be lying if he said he was not in a hurry, but he couldn't handle it alone. If Qian could work hard, he wouldn't be so tired.

After thinking for a while, Yang Laoer said: "Let Daya and Erya do it."

Li was so angry that she cursed Yang Laoer bloody.

After learning about it, Mrs. Qian proudly ran to Mrs. Li to show off, "Aniang! You can't compare me with my sister-in-law everywhere. I have a man who loves me. Unlike my sister-in-law, who was unlucky and became a widow early, she is indifferent." Get up and get ready to drink the northwest wind!"

Ms. Li was so angry that she almost took off her shoes and slapped Ms. Qian.

Because he wanted to build a house, Jiang Ning had to temporarily send Mianmian to Yang Han's house to stay with Yang Xiaohua. During this period, the Mao brothers were tortured by the village chief and others until they lost their humanity. Mianmian also came out of the initial fear. Hearing that She had no objection to letting her stay at Yang Han's house temporarily, and she even said with a smile that she could continue to pick things in the back mountains with Yang Santie and the others.

Jiang Ning settled down Mianmian and planned to go to the county to inquire about the situation after the house was ready.
