When Liu Yuqing said this, Zhao Guoqing couldn't help but laugh. These two things are completely incomparable.

White sugar is generally seen as expensive by the common people, and they can be bought with tickets and money. However, Pu-erh tea from the past 20 years cannot be bought with money, especially here, many people have never heard of it.

The origin of Xia Zhiqing's identity is really curious.

"I also don't think it tastes as good as sugar water..."

Zhao Xiahe on the one side said something a little embarrassed, and Xia Ruolan on the other side was not angry, but hurried into the room and took out a ceramic jar. As soon as they opened it, everyone could smell the aroma of rice wine.

Then Xia Ruolan stirred an egg into the boiling water, added some rice wine and brown sugar, and brought a bowl to Zhao Xiahe.

"Sister Xia He, try it. An aunt I know said that women in their family have to drink rice wine during confinement..."

Drinking rice wine for confinement is a habit in the south, isn't this Xia Ruolan from the north?

But the aunt she mentioned, the aunt is from the south, she should be very close to her family, otherwise she wouldn't talk about it with a girl's family.

"Women here eat old hens during confinement. Sister Xia He, I'll buy you old hens later..."

Liu Yuqing on the side also said with a smile, anyway, her family was afraid that she would suffer hardship in the countryside, so they sent her a lot of food coupons and money, and buying old hens was nothing.

"How can this work? It has already bothered you very much. I don't even know how to thank you..."

Zhao Xiahe is grateful to them from the bottom of her heart. She is here as a confinement child. The two girls are very kind to her, and eating and drinking really opened her eyes.

In the past, I couldn’t get enough to eat at my mother’s house, and I couldn’t get enough to eat when I went to my in-law’s house. Every time, my mother-in-law and my husband finished eating, and she was reluctant to pour out the remaining washing water, and would eat it all.

But like this, she never told her natal family, she only reported the good news but not the bad news. She always said that Qian Zhuang's family was in the commune, and the conditions were relatively good, at least for most of the year. , eat white rice.

It's pretty good to drink rice porridge for two months only when you don't pick it up.

"Sister, hurry up and eat. You have a poor body. You have to take care of yourself. You are only 23 years old this year. You still have a great youth. Qian Zhuang is not worth it. Look back and see if you want to divorce ..."

Zhao Guoqing gave the second sister a spoonful of milky white fish soup, which was very nourishing.

In the case of not much meat, drinking more fish soup is good for the second sister's health. She is actually very young, but she is very old. She looks like a 30-year-old woman with wrinkles on her forehead.

"Divorce, I, I, I dare not!"

Zhao Xiahe stuttered when he talked about divorce. These days, anyone who gets divorced will be reported by ten miles and eight villages.

Those widows are usually men who are dead and will be bullied. If she gets divorced, she will worry when she thinks about it.

"Sister Xia He, you see that Zhao Guoqing even supports your divorce. It's a shame if your man is with you or not. Your child is in such a poor health that no one will come to see you. Why are you following such a man?"

Liu Yuqing on the side was drinking fish soup and also very much agreed with Zhao Guoqing's opinion.

This woman, what is the purpose of getting married, isn't it just to be a person who knows the cold and the hot?

Otherwise why marry you?

"Sister Xia He is not in a hurry, don't think too much, take care of your body first, a good body is the capital of everything!"

Xia Ruolan did not express her opinion, but encouraged Zhao Xiahe to take care of her body first.

She really sees that Zhao Xiahe's condition is not good. She is a confinement child, so she can't be angry, and she can't be depressed about everything, otherwise she will easily fall into the root of the disease.

Zhao Guoqing's craftsmanship is good, especially the fish soup is extremely delicious, served with white rice, several people are very satisfied, Liu Yuqing praised Zhao Guoqing again and again, and Zhao Xiahe on the side couldn't help but look up at the two of them. .

He bowed his head quickly again, feeling a little embarrassed.

Zhao Guoqing over there didn't notice this, but asked them, did they encounter that black shadow again during this period of time?

"If you still feel unsafe, I have a good idea, you can try..."

Chapter 145 There are new neighbors, and the future is promising!

"Since Miss Xia He came here, the courtyard door has been opened, and I haven't seen the black shadow. However, I still feel a little scared in my heart. Tell me, Zhao Guoqing, what can you do?"

Liu Yuqing was very interested in Zhao Guoqing's proposal.

"Raise big white geese. My two big white geese are very fierce. They chase dogs and cats at home every day. If you don't turn around, I'll bring you big white geese..."

Zhao Guoqing wanted to laugh when he mentioned the big white goose at home.

Even a goose is fierce, as long as someone approaches his rabbit cage or wild boar pen, the goose will run away and poke people directly with its mouth.

And every time the two act together, the appearance of concerted efforts is simply domineering, and the neighbors are muttering, saying that the big white goose in his family is too fierce, and the hen next door is so scared that it won’t lay eggs. The dogs in the previous family did not dare to come back to sleep.

"Okay, okay, one is enough, the yard of our house is small, two must make the roof upside down..."

Several people ate together, talking and laughing, so that Wang Weidong, who occasionally walked by the door, had red eyes with envy and jealousy.

Zhao Guoqing took advantage of all the advantages, so why didn't he have such good luck?

Zhao Guoqing was stopped today, and he was scolded and humiliated in front of Liu Yuqing. If he wanted to find a chance to talk to Liu Yuqing, he had to pass her door with an excuse.

Unfortunately, there was no chance to meet Liu Yuqing.

After returning from Liu Yuqing's home, Zhao Guoqing told his mother that he would send one of the family's big white geese to Liu Yuqing and the others, which made Liu Zhenfang agree.

He also said that he killed the hen that the eldest sister Zhao Chunlan brought to the family last time, and sent it to Liu Zhiqing to make soup, so that all the girls could drink some chicken soup.

Liu Zhenfang felt sorry for her daughter, because she was grateful to the two educated youths from the bottom of her heart.

I discussed with Zhao Guoqing, and sent them some rice and white noodles later, and some meat dishes. People have to be conscientious.

"I know, when I go to the commune to drag bricks later, I will buy more rice noodles and send them over. By the way, Qian Zhuang hasn't come yet? I see the second sister's marriage, and I'd better persuade her to leave. Fortunately, the second sister has no children." Also young..."

Zhao Guoqing talked about his views in front of his mother.

This Qian Zhuang is not a good husband at all, plus a widowed mother who is a monster, if the second sister doesn't get divorced, she will fall into the fire pit and can't even get up.

"Today, Qian Zhuang sent someone to send a message, saying that his mother is sick, and when her mother recovers, she will come to pick up your second sister. I also think that your second sister should get divorced, and move to a new house with us in the future. That's enough, you two brothers, but treat your second sister well, she has nothing..."

Divorced women in rural areas are not only easy to be gossiped.

The key is to be bullied at every turn.

Even for some weddings and weddings in the village, this divorced woman cannot enter the new house near the new bed, otherwise she will be scolded as unlucky by the new couple.

"Don't worry, that's my second sister, and I will help take care of it. When the second sister gets better in the future, she can marry if she wants to. If she doesn't want to, she will have a place to eat and live at home. She will definitely not Let others deceive her."

Zhao Guoqing quickly discussed the second sister's matter with his mother, and the two agreed in a rare way, that is, they supported the second sister's divorce.

Just beating someone for Qian Zhuang, regardless of right and wrong, he is not the second sister's lifelong lover, the second sister is still so young, you can look for it slowly, if you can't find it, then you won't get married.

As long as they feel nothing, it doesn't matter how others gossip.

The most important thing in life is to be happy, not to think about what others say?

After setting the start date, Zhao Guoqing also notified his relatives and friends, and he was also busy dragging bricks and adobe.

That kind of adobe is to use a kind of adobe mold with straw in it, and then mix it with yellow mud, and then keep rolling it, so that the yellow mud is very tough.

Now almost every household in Chaoyang Village uses adobe walls as yards. After all, this kind of house is cheap and strong, and it has been used for more than ten years without any problems.

Straw is ready-made and does not cost money. The Zhao family has adobe molds, just dig it out. Yellow mud is abundant behind Zhao Guoqing's homestead.

It doesn't cost money to make an adobe wall, just a little effort.

Zhao Guoqing and Zhao Youqing came here when they found time. The finished adobe bricks weighed tens of kilograms. They were first dried in the sun and then piled up directly before drying in the shade.

Zhao Guoqing intends to use adobe to make some courtyard walls, especially Zhao Youqing has four foundations, and he plans to surround all of them with courtyard walls, so that in the future, the house will be occupied by people, and the site will be spacious enough to raise some chickens, ducks, geese, cattle and sheep.

There are courtyard walls, so you can rest assured of safety.

As for the main body of the new house, Zhao Guoqing plans to replace all of them with red bricks and tiled roofs. This kind of house does not currently exist in Chaoyang Brigade.

Most people’s houses are adobe houses with a little blue brick foundation, or one wall is made of blue bricks to make it look better, and adobe is used in the back of the house or inconspicuous places on the side.

After all, the relative conditions in the countryside are still very poor.

When Zhao Guoqing and the others were digging adobe, they happened to see a group of people digging adobe a little below Shuangtang.

They all belong to the same village, and Zhao Guoqing also knew them. He only found out about this family after saying hello in the past. He also bought three homesteads here, and plans to start building houses tomorrow.

The head of the household is Wang Cheng, and his wife is Liu E. They are both 34 and [-] years old this year. When they were in their prime, they had a daughter and a son in their family. They were considered well-to-do households in the village.

Otherwise, I wouldn't have thought about buying three homesteads by the Shuangtang and building a new house.

His family also plans to make more adobes, which will be used for building walls, pigsty toilets, and so on. As for red bricks, they will also buy some and plan to put them in the most prominent position in the front of the main house. Some style.

"Brother National Day, everyone in the village is saying that your family is getting rich. The eight foundations are the first ones in our village. If you are neighbors with you, you will be rich if you are an older brother. If you have any good things to do in the future, you must call me." Ah, among other things, I have a lot of strength, so I promise not to be lazy..."

When Wang Cheng saw Zhao Guoqing, he was full of praise.

He kept praising him, after all, Zhao Guoqing was the word most talked about in the village during this time.

He's rich, he's made a lot of money, and when he sells it, he owns eight homesteads.

I just envy the dead, like they are all over 30 years old, and they are too tired to get three homesteads.

"This distant relative can't keep up with the close neighbor. In the future, we should take care of each other. It's all right..."

Seeing that Wang Cheng and his wife can talk, and they will be neighbors in the future, thinking that in the past, Zhao Fu and Wang Chunhua had to look at Zhao Fu and Wang Chunhua's face when they went in and out. Now seeing Wang Cheng and his wife, he was very happy from the bottom of his heart.

Building another house and moving out is really the best decision!

Zhao Guoqing is looking forward to the day when the house will be ready in the future.

Chapter 146 Someone is rushing to build a new house!

Zhao Guoqing calculated the time, and one day when the new house was about to start construction, he heard the sound of crackling firecrackers near the village, 200 meters away from Shuangtang.

Who sets off firecrackers this year?

The location was very close to the Shuangtang, so Zhao Guoqing took a quick look at it, and saw Zhou Xiaoliu standing in the crowd. At this time, his hair was specially moussed, and even the slippery flies could not stand upright. .

At this time, he was smoking for everyone, while shouting with great pride.

"Four rooms, I also built the foundation for four rooms. This location is near the bustling village. It is much better than the Shuangtang side. I will start building the house today. We will build the largest and most magnificent red brick and tile house in our village, and take care of the village. The first one, give our old Zhou parents face..."

Zhou Xiaoliu was extremely proud at this time, his whole face was full of spring breeze, and his fighting spirit was as high as if he had been beaten with chicken blood.

When he saw that Zhao Guoqing was also watching the excitement, he raised his head even higher.

The last time I was in the brigade's office, Zhou Xiaoliu was scolded by Zhao Guoqing this time, and he couldn't get off the stage at that time. After returning home, the brothers of the Zhou family complained to each other.

Especially Zhou Xiaoliu's father scolded a group of sons.

Said that their old Zhou family now only has Xiaoliu left without a house to live in, and Zhao Guoqing has not been robbed of the foundation. These five elder brothers have been in the village for nothing.

People in the village will point out that they are not as good as the old Zhao's family.

Trees need skin and people need face. Their old Zhou family is a big family in this Chaoyang Village, how can they be crushed by Zhao Guoqing, so the old Zhou family gathered together overnight and contributed money and effort to make suggestions.

At that time, there was a team leader surnamed Zhou in the brigade, and he quickly told Zhou Xiaoliu that besides the homestead on the Shuangtang side, there was actually another piece of better homestead in the village, but four of them would not be sold separately. You can take a look.

Zhou Xiaoliu's news was so well informed last time, in fact, it was this cousin who worked in the team who tipped off the news.

Otherwise, how could Zhao Guoqing confirm the homestead in Shuangtang, and the Zhou brothers would know to make trouble.

After the Zhou family was taught by the old man of the Zhou family, Zhou Xiaoliu's older brothers pooled their money to buy the four house sites not far from Shuangtang.

Zhou Xiaoliu was very happy when he got the four homesteads. He heard that Zhao Guoqing's family would start construction on the homestead tomorrow.

After all, in the office of the brigade that day, he was beaten by Zhao Guoqing. This time, he had to find the place to build the house. There are a lot of brothers in his family. How can Zhao Guoqing make a fuss in this Chaoyang brigade? The boy was suppressed?

When Zhao Guoqing saw Zhou Xiaoliu's appearance and a group of Zhou family members surrounding him, he instantly understood what others were thinking.

Hehehe, this week Xiaoliu has a strong sense of revenge. She is jealous that her family wants to build a new house, so she has to rush to build the house and lay the foundation the day before.

Chaoyang brigade has a lot of people surnamed Zhou, and there are more than a dozen people in the gang, all talking and laughing, surrounding Zhou Xiaoliu in the middle.

"Some people earn two small coins, but they don't know the heights of the sky and the earth. They grab the foundation with me, and don't look at how many people there are in my Zhou family? One person can drown him with a spit. Later, I will build the house as the head of our brigade. Let some people know that the pot is made of iron..."

This week, Xiao Liu didn't name his name, but just stared at Zhao Guoqing with a pair of eyes triumphantly, how arrogant that look was.

I heard Zhao Guoqing chuckle.

"Every good place is downwind of my house, but what's so exciting about the four foundations?"

Zhao Guoqing laughed, Zhou Xiaoliu was acting like this this week, he didn't even dare to mention his name in front of him, he only dared to point fingers at Sang and scold Huai, what's so embarrassing?

"Who is embarrassed? Today is a good day for my family to build a house. It is useless for you to be jealous. The house built by the ability is better than my house, and it is taller than my house..."

Zhou Xiaoliu's face is not smiling at this time, his family has actually decided to build a three-meter-high red brick house.

Because in Chaoyang Village, basically every household has an adobe house with a height of [-] meters. It must be unique to build a house with a height of [-] meters like him, which is definitely better than the one built by Zhao Guoqing's family.

After all, building a better house and building it higher will cost a lot of extra money.

He didn't believe it, Zhao Guoqing's family spent more than 200 yuan on the foundation, how could he have more money than himself?
