I Was Called a Poor Widow, But I Relied on My Supernatural Powers To Fight Back In Ancient Times

Chapter 400 Blue bricks and blue tiles

Listening to Mrs. Song's teasing, Bai Yunxi pointed to the chair opposite and poured her a glass of water.

"I can't help it. Now this shack can survive one winter, but I can't guarantee that it can survive the second. If it collapses, there will be a nest of old, weak, women and children in the house. If anything happens, I will be speechless. Go meet the father of the child.”

“Now, while there is still peace, hurry up and build the house. No matter what happens in the war, I will have a sense of security in my heart.”

 Speaking of this, Baiyunxi approached the Song Wang family and spoke in a low voice,

“Rumors about the war are not good for the people, but I benefited from it and the grain was sold at a high price.”

Baiyunxi said and sighed quietly,

"Although this thing sounds unreasonable, for us common people, isn't it just the harvest of this three-thirds of an acre of land all year round? When the country is at war, that is what the royal government should worry about. We common people can only let it go. , can’t influence anything at all?”

“So, I sold it directly while the price of food was high, so I could just renovate a house.”

Hearing Bai Yunxi’s tone, Mrs. Song Wang nodded in agreement.

"Don't talk about you, my family's food was sold out yesterday and replaced with coarse grains. We can't control the war. Who knows how long they will be able to use up? We still have to plan for ourselves."

“Besides, how can we control the rise in food prices? Even if the war affects us, those officials will not take care of us, the people at the bottom.”

 Song Wang said, looked up and around, and spoke in a low voice.

“I think it’s very right that you chose this period to build a house. I don’t know if the Northwest War will last until the end of the Year of the Monkey. If anything happens, we can live our lives behind closed doors and feel at ease.”

Hearing Wang Wang’s tone, Bai Yunxi nodded.

 “You’re right, that’s what I meant too.”

 At the end of the day, if there really was a fight, let alone a courtyard, or a city, it would be impossible to defend it, but she couldn't say this to the Song Wang family.

Since the start of construction, Baiyunxi’s family has all entered a busy period.

Helping the family to do things is smooth and reliable. Under the leadership of the master ink master, all the workers can get to the job in one step. Except for the fact that the wood has not been delivered, the bricks and tiles are transported to the village non-stop every day, so there is no problem with the supply.

 Watching the carts of blue bricks and tiles entering the village one after another and stacking them in the open space next to them, the people in the village were very excited.

Most of the houses built by country people are thatched houses, which are better quality houses than shacks.

 For houses with slightly better conditions, only tiles are used around the roof ridge, and the rest is still covered with thatch. As long as they are diligent and change the grass regularly every year, there will be no leakage.

In addition to thatched houses, which are the walls of every household, most of the walls in the countryside are made of mud walls, which are made of soil mixed with broken thatch, which is strong and strong.

 But now, looking at the situation of the Baiyunxi family, with the green bricks and blue tiles being delivered one after another, they probably don’t want to use any mud at all.

Thinking about their former yard and looking at it now, many people can’t help but feel sore.

“After all, we still raise people’s families, but they are different from us ordinary people. If we don’t build a house, we will only build a house with blue bricks and blue tiles, which makes people envious to death.”

“It’s not that good. We still see people living in shacks every day and laugh at them from heaven to hell. In just a short time, they have turned over. If we look at us again, it’s really incomparable.”
