After lunch, Mrs. Lee and Madame Lee cleaned up the dishes.

Yang Dingchu and his wife told the three generation Lee Family about building a house.

"I've shown you for a few days. The 18th of winter is a good day for building houses."

Yang Dingchu cupped his hands towards the old man, "Thank you for your concern, Grandfather."

"Building a house is a big matter and one cannot be careless. However, one must look at the good days. This is related to whether or not one's home will be peaceful in the future."

Bai Xiao said: "Father, I'll be troubling you with the workers and construction materials."

"What do you mean by 'trouble doesn't bother you'? Let's not talk about it in this family."

Bai Xiao took out the house she designed.

"Godfather, let's see if we can build a house like this."

Originally, she was a little worried that she wouldn't be able to find green bricks. However, after going to the county, and seeing that there were green bricks, she decided to build a house with green bricks.

In the countryside, they usually used mud bricks or wooden houses. These houses were not strong, and were not as good as the green bricks.

Lee Chengyi looked at the design of Bai Xiao's house.

"A house like this is suitable for you to choose from. I originally wanted to suggest you to build a house like this, but I didn't expect you to think of it yourself."

"Godfather, we are not familiar with this area. We will leave everything to you."

"As long as you don't worry, leave it to me."

Bai Xiao took out one piece of silver and gave it to Lee Chengyi.

"This is for materials and for workers."

"So many? Not so much. "

"Invite more workers. I want to be able to live in this place before the year ends."

Thinking about the house that Yang Family lived in, Lee Chengyi nodded his head.

"Don't worry, I'll definitely get them to help you build the house before the new year."

Today, they were already 15 years old and there were only three days left before the start of the construction, so the few of them discussed about the details.

When most of the details were settled, Yang Dingchu and Bai Xiao finally returned.

"Brother Chu, we have settled the matter of the house. Where is the furniture? "What do we do?"

"What do you think?"

Yang Dingchu knew that his wife always had an idea.

"I want to design it myself, add the design philosophy of my time, and create a different set of furniture."

"Will you be very tired?"

"No way, I just don't know if Mom and Dad will like the furniture I designed."

She was an old man, after all. Whatever she designed, more or less, had some avant-garde concept to it.

"Don't worry, they won't have any objections. Besides, I'm sure my wife designed something very beautiful. "

"That's not necessarily true. If I'm ugly, you're not allowed to laugh at me."

"How can it be ugly? Look at the courtyard you designed, it's already very beautiful." However, it would be better if the door was changed. "

"Why?"

"The establishment of the Gateway must be in accordance with one's identity, otherwise, it will bring about a fatal disaster. "Right now, we have no achievements at all, and no titles at all. It would be against the rules for you to open the door in the middle."

Bai Xiao smacked her head. How could she have forgotten about this?

"Then where is the right place to open the door?"

"This godfather knows better. When the time comes, tell him that it's better if he knows where to build it."

"Not bad, luckily you discovered it early. If only we could fix the door later, then it would have taken more effort. But if there wasn't, then someone would have reported it."

Yang Dingchu lovingly rubbed the top of Bai Xiao's head, and the two walked back together.

When he passed by the Bai Family s, he could still hear Mrs. Bai's wails.

At this point in time, Bai Qinggui had already woken up but he did not remember what happened back then.

Although Mrs. Bai was angry, she could only scold but not find the person she should scold.

After returning home, Bai Xiao entered her space, took out a pen and paper and started designing the furniture.

When Mrs. Yang asked about Bai Xiao outside, he only said that Bai Xiao was tired and had gone to sleep.

"Father, mother, the date of construction of the new house is set at the 18th of the winter moon."

"Why are you in such a hurry?" Mrs. Yang said.

"Xiao said that she wanted to move into her new home before New Year's."

Yang Wenyi knocked on his pipe, and said: "It's only been a month or so since the new year, is there still time?"

"As long as we have the money, why would it be too late to hire more people?"

"Then wouldn't it cost you a lot of silver?"

Madame Yang said: "Mother, no matter what, you were previously a Matriarch. The amount of silver spent on building a house was not even the monthly salary of my family, why do you care so much now?"

"It used to be before, but now it's time. We can break our waists just for a bowl of rice. What we eat now is worse than what we used to eat as servants."

Yang Dingchu patted Mrs. Yang's shoulder and said: "Don't worry Mother, our family will definitely get better."

"Hopefully."

The family fell into silence.

Bai Xiao drew in the space, as soon as she started, she became enchanted, until Yang Dingchu called her out of the space.

"Brother Chu, take a look at my drawing. This is the wardrobe. "

Six hours later, Bai Xiao had already finished drawing the entire set of furniture.

The bed was the sculpted bed of this era. Next was the wardrobe, a big wardrobe with six doors and a plum blossom carved on the door.

"This wardrobe is good. It can hold quite a few things."

"That's right, we use the same kind of closets all the time. It's convenient to store all the clothes neatly in them."

"Take it out and let Mom and Dad see it. I can guarantee that they'll like it."

There was nothing that the two men, Yang Wenyi and Yang Wenyi, didn't like, but when Mrs. Yang and Madame Yang saw the wardrobe that could hold so much, they liked it.

The wardrobe they were using now had only two doors, and beneath them was a cupboard, usually used for cotton.

The upper layer is used to store clothes, usually for the season change, after the season clothes fold up in the cabinet.

"Since you guys like it, then let's set it up. Next time when Brother Chu and I go to the county, I'll find a furniture master to help us do it."

Yang Wenyi said: "Leave it to me. I know a master in this field, his skills are not bad."

"Then I'll have to thank dad for the trouble. "If Mother and Sister-in-law have any designs that they like, we can redesign them. We can just use the plum blossoms in our room."

Mrs. Yang told Madame Yang what she liked and Yang Wenyi kept the map.

The next morning, after breakfast, he went out alone.

Bai Xiao and Yang Dingchu intended to make another trip to the mountain.

Bai Xiao was still concerned about the horses in the basin, the construction was about to start, it would be more convenient to have a mount to travel on.

Besides, after the house was built, they had to plough the land. It was also necessary to get a cow to plough the land.

Most of the workers invited were from the villages near the town. They lived far away from home, so no matter what, they had to take care of their families.

Not only must workers be paid well, but they must also eat well. Therefore, it was necessary to bring back one or two prey for the workers.

"It's not like we won't enter the mountain anymore. Is it really necessary to gather them all at once?"
