After becoming a widow, I became the mother of seven children

Probably because Yan Qingqing's family had such a good display of wine, the people building the houses worked even harder.

After more than half a month, Yan Qingqing's Sanjin courtyard was finally completed, and all that was left was decoration.

Yan Qingqing smiled happily as she looked at the three-door courtyard. Four months after arriving in ancient times, she finally had a car and a house.

Although the car is just an oxcart and the house is a self-built house in the countryside, Yan Qingqing is extremely satisfied.

In this life, she is very open-minded. There are some things that cannot be taken with her in life or death. There is no need to be so persistent, as long as she has enough money.

Yan Qingqing is now in a state where she has a house and everything is ready. She has long forgotten the scene when she painted cakes for several children some time ago.

The children in the family were extremely excited when they saw the new house. Li Xiangkang couldn't help but ask: "Mom, when will we start moving?"

Yan Qingqing replied: "It's still early, we have to decorate it properly."

Li Xiangkang asked in confusion: "Decoration? What is decoration, mother?"

In this era, unless wealthy families would renovate their houses after they were built, there was no such thing as decoration in rural areas.

Yan Qingqing didn't want to be too unconventional, but it was too hasty to move in like this, so she said, "What I mean is that you should decorate your room in the way you want the place you will live to be like in the future."

Yan Qingqing planned to simply decorate all the rooms, lay the floors, paint them white, and let them do the rest.

Flooring does not exist in this era. Yan Qingqing has the idea to do it herself, but she currently does not have the strength and energy. This can be replaced by wooden floors for the time being.

Whitewashing walls requires the use of gypsum powder, putty powder, and paint, but the current conditions are definitely not available.

However, Yan Qingqing discovered some natural gypsum in the back mountain some time ago. She thought about processing it later and using it to paint a simple white wall. You can also make it look the way you like.

Current conditions are limited, and this is all she can do.

Li Xiangkang was a little discouraged when he heard that it would take some time before he could move to a new home. Then he would have to continue sleeping on the same bed with his two sisters.

Seeing that Li Xiangkang was unhappy, Yan Qingqing touched his head and said, "Don't be afraid of being late if you have a good meal. Mom will simply decorate the house and you will know the difference from now. Mom, I guarantee that all your waiting will be worth it."

Also, although we are not moving today, Mom can promise you that you can choose these yards first, and you can live in whichever house you like later. "

Li Xiangkang was happy again after hearing this, but after choosing a circle, he found that he liked every yard, so he didn't know how to choose.

Finally, he looked at Yan Qingqing aggrievedly and said, "Mom, can I share the same courtyard with you?"

It was rare for this child to be so close to him, and since he didn't live in the same room anyway, he could live in a courtyard, so Yan Qingqing immediately agreed.

Others looked at Li Xiangkang with envy. In fact, they also wanted to live with their mother, but a yard was only so big, and after her mother gave birth to a little brother or sister, she would definitely live in the same yard with her. My mother's yard will definitely not be able to live in it by then.

Yan Qingqing chose a courtyard first, which was the innermost location, and she liked the design in front of the courtyard.

Then Li Xiangping and the others each chose their favorite yard.

After everyone made their selections, Yan Qingqing started to decorate. She still gave full power to Li Xiangping and Li Sanniu.

Li Sanniu had also worked hard some time ago. As he was busy, Yan Qingqing paid him two taels of silver directly, but Li Sanniu refused to accept it.

He said that they were all a family and he should help. He also said that Xu had already been paid for working in their house and he could no longer take advantage.

One code equals one code, even brothers have to settle accounts clearly, so Yan Qingqing insisted on giving.

In the end, the two sides couldn't argue, and Mr. Li offered a compromise, asking Yan Qingqing to settle Li Sanniu's wages according to the wages paid to the workers.

A total of 45 days, it was supposed to be 120 and [-] cents, but in the end Li Sanniu took Yan Qingqing one tael of silver.

Yan Qingqing knew that Li Sanniu was available, so she felt relieved about him.

Similarly, Yan Qingqing gave the plan, and Li Xiangping and Li Sanniu implemented it.

After the house arrangements were made, Yan Qingqing decided to take a good rest for a few days. She was getting older now, already seven months old, and the little one in her belly would be born in more than two months.

She thought it was time to prepare supplies after the baby was born. In fact, Yuan Huiniang and Li Xiniang had already prepared a lot for the baby, but Yan Qingqing, the mother-in-law, didn't even prepare a diaper for the baby until now.

That night, Yan Qingqing was sleeping when she heard Zhao Yumei making a fuss next door for some unknown reason, accompanied by bursts of painful wails, which were not much better than the sound of killing pigs.

Yan Qingqing was very upset. The family had a lot of trouble every day. Ever since Li Daniu came home, they had been quarreling every day.

Usually even Mr. Li doesn't want to interfere with their family's affairs.

Yan Qingqing turned over and wanted to continue sleeping, but the sound was too noisy. Then she heard Yuan Huiniang knocking on the door and saying, "Mom, something happened next door. Do you want to get up and take a look?"

After hearing what Yuan Huiniang said, Yan Qingqing knew that it was not a trivial matter, otherwise Yuan Huiniang would not bother her so late.

Yan Qingqing was a month old and it was not very convenient to get up, but she still got up from the bed with difficulty. When she opened the door, she saw Yuan Huiniang standing in front of her door with a complicated look on her face.

Yan Qingqing asked: "What's wrong? What happened?"

Yuan Huiniang hesitated for a while and said, "Auntie stabbed uncle."

Yan Qingqing was a little surprised. What kind of quarrels were these two couples having? They usually quarreled but today they actually went under the knife.

Yan Qingqing asked casually: "Are you dead?"

Yuan Huiniang replied: "That's not true, but..."

Yuan Huiniang was not usually a chattering person, but today she spoke hesitantly, which was not like her usual speaking style.

Yan Qingqing didn't want to play riddles with her and said impatiently: "Why did they fight? How are they hurt? If you have anything to say, just say it."

Yuan Huiniang took a deep breath and said: "I heard that a key part was injured, and I'm afraid it won't be humane in the future."

Yan Qingqing also gasped. There must be some deep hatred between these two people.

And Zhao Yumei was so cruel and even injured there. If it was unintentional, it would be fine. If it was intentional, then Li Daniu would be really interesting.

Yuan Huiniang slowly spoke again: "I heard that the eldest aunt stabbed the uncle somewhere else, and the uncle was carried back."

When Yan Qingqing heard that this was not stabbed at home, it was late at night. Thinking of this, Yan Qingqing's heart was ready to gossip, and she said to Yuan Huiniang: "I'll put on some clothes later, and let's watch the fun."

After saying that, he slipped into the house with a speed that was shocking, making Yuan Huiniang a little dumbfounded.
