Chuan Shu Qi Leng: I own a department store

"Let Jin Chu and Song Han sleep with us tonight. Mom, you and Lin Quan will be able to take care of two children each," Xu Wanning said.

But Mother Lin rejected her proposal, "The room you and Anzi share is small, and the bed is even smaller. The two children won't be able to sleep well sleeping with you. At night, Quanquan and I will take Jin Chuchunian to sleep in the larger room. Han Xuning and Chu Lin Gengming sleep in the small room."

Jin Chuchu was seven or eight years old after celebrating the New Year.

In ancient times, it was a rule that men and women should sit on separate seats at the age of seven. Now there are no such rules, but as children get older, they still need to be taught the difference between men and women early on.

Starting education from young children is also easier for them to accept.

Xu Wanning thought for a while and agreed.

Although Geng Ming is only over two years old, he is already able to sleep on his own, not to mention having three older brothers with him. Xu Wanning is not worried at all.

"By the way, Mom, I have something else I want to discuss with you."

"You said."

"I just proposed that the villagers come to our house for dinner tomorrow. Not only to thank them for helping us protect the house, but also because I want to ask the villagers to help us and try to give our house a good start before the Chinese New Year. A new house.”

"What?" Mother Lin asked in surprise, "You want to build a new house?"

Xu Wanning nodded: "Before going to Beijing, didn't we already discuss building a new house? But the trip to Beijing was too hasty, so we left Dajiang Village before we could build it. Anyway, there is still time before the Chinese New Year. In about ten days, if we hire more people to help, we can completely build it.”

Mother Lin was a little hesitant: "You said, we live in Beijing all year round, so we only come back for a few days when you have time on vacation. The old house is completely enough for living. There is no need to build a new one. Isn't this a waste of money? .”

"It's one thing to live in it, but it's another thing to build a house or not. Although our family usually lives in Beijing, Dajiang Village is our root, and we always come back to live there a few times every year. Damn it. The old house was made of rammed earth and is almost old. We can’t suddenly come back one day and have no place to live, right?”

"Mom, I think my sister-in-law is right. We have to build this house, not for anything else, but to remind us all the time that Dajiang Village is our root. If one day in the future we can no longer survive in Beijing, When we return to Dajiang Village, we won’t have no place to stay.”

How could Mother Lin not know what the children were thinking?

Talking about wanting a place to stay, to put it bluntly, it was just to satisfy her, an old woman. An Ning and Tsuen Tsuen were just trying to make her happy!

Although Lin An didn't say a word, his expression and attitude proved that he supported Xu Wanning.

"Mom, what do you think?"

"I'll listen to you, I'll listen to you. But this house is for our family to live in, and we can't let you pay all the money to build the house. I also made some money at the tailor shop. Although I don't make as much as you, I You can also come up with a hundred yuan."

"I'll take one hundred too." Lin Quan said to Xu Wanning: "Sister-in-law, I still need to save money for you to buy a courtyard house. My current liquidity is only a little over one hundred, so I'll take one hundred yuan." no?"

"Of course. Lin An and I will make up for the rest. When the house is built, there will be a room for you, Chu Nian and Chu Lin. Each of them will have a room."

Xu Wanning did not refuse the money given by Lin's mother and Lin Quan.

She is not short of two hundred yuan, but if the family works together, life will be better and better.

She also doesn't like having to do everything herself. Everyone contributes a little, and no one complains in their heart.

Even if she and Lin An had a big deal, she would still be happy with it.

Lin An saw that all the business matters had been discussed, and stood up and said, "I'm going to get some water, and then I'll find a way to get some firewood back. It's too cold at night, and I can't sleep without a brazier."

Yes, in the three eastern provinces at night, you have to light a brazier to sleep.

Xu Wanning laughed in her heart.

She once again cursed in her mind that the author of the original book was not rigorous enough in writing the book. The setting was already in the coldest black province in China. They were not even given a kang, and they still slept on a wooden bed!

How can I stay up at night in such a cold weather?

"I'll go with you."

"No, I can do it alone. You have a good rest."

"I am not tired."

"Have a good rest even if you're not tired."

The two pushed back and forth for a while, but neither could convince the other. In the end, Mother Lin made the final decision: "Let Anzi go alone. As the only man in the family, he has to shoulder the responsibility of being the mainstay. Aning, you are a woman." My child, you can’t let the cold air enter your body. It’s better to bear it when you get older. There are some things that you shouldn’t be too aggressive about, you know?”

Xu Wanning is not trying to be brave, she just feels sorry for Lin An, and at the same time she wants to use the cheating artifact of space to get more firewood.

But Lin An didn't have a spiritual connection with her and didn't understand her thoughts.

In fact, how did Xu Wanning know? It wasn't that Lin An didn't know what she was thinking, but that he was reluctant to let Xu Wanning go out in the cold.

Lin An put on his military coat and leather boots. As soon as he opened the courtyard door, he found several villagers standing at the door of his house. One of them raised his right hand, preparing to knock on the door.

"I was just about to knock on the door, but you opened the door. Anzi, please open the door quickly and let us carry the things in."

Lin An didn't know what was going on, but he still turned sideways in a daze and let several villagers carry the so-called things into the house.

Then he saw three braziers and several bundles of firewood.

"When it didn't snow before, we chopped a lot of firewood and brought your share back with us. But there was no one in your house, so we were worried that someone might cause trouble and throw sparks into the firewood pile, and then destroy the house. If you light it, it will cause serious problems, so the firewood is put in the brigade."

"Just now the captain went back and said that you were back, so we hurriedly carried the firewood. Today we only took part of it. We will gather a few more people tomorrow to bring the firewood back at once."

"Don't worry, there's not much firewood here, but it's enough for you to use for one night. Oh, by the way, these three braziers belong to the brigade. The captain said, I'll give them to you first. You're welcome."

Mother Lin looked at the busy people and winked at Xu Wanning.

Xu Wanning also wants to make tea for everyone, preferably some sugar water.

But the problem is, there is no water in the house, and there is no stove to heat hot water.

So, Xu Wanning opened the package of snacks again, grabbed a handful of milk candies and fruit candies for everyone, and also gave everyone a pack of biscuits brought back from Beijing.
