Thanks to everyone's efforts, the house is progressing very quickly, and the next step will be to put up the beams. Anyone who has built a house knows that installing beams is the most important step in building a house.

I have never done such a thing, and the eldest brother Shen Dong said that the customs are different in each place, so it is best to ask the elderly.

Shen Ping thought about it and felt that Shen Dong was right, so she still planned to go to the old house to ask her mother-in-law Li and her father-in-law Zhang Tiezhu for advice.

Li and Zhang Tiezhu couldn't help but feel happy when they saw that Shen Ping came to ask for advice sincerely.

Nowadays, this third daughter-in-law is really up to date. Others may not be able to build a big house with bricks and tiles in their lifetime, but it is unexpected that this third daughter-in-law can build four houses together.

Now the news has spread all over the country, and everyone knows that Shen Ping is Zhang Tiezhu's daughter-in-law.

"Cough cough..."

Zhang Tiezhu coughed twice: "Second daughter-in-law, there are a lot of things to prepare for the beam!"

After finishing speaking, Zhang Tiezhu and Li listed them one by one, and Shen Ping took the notebook and started writing them down.

You need to prepare a whole pig for this top beam. You don’t need a whole pig, just use the pig head and pig tail. You also need to buy candies, chickens, ducks, geese, five-color glutinous rice, drinks, and things for sacrifices.

Zhang Tiezhu took the almanac and picked a good day. Soon the day of Liang Liang came. Fearing that Shen Ping would not understand, the two elders went to help early in the morning.

This big guy knew that Shen Ping was going to the Liang Dynasty today, and soon the villagers and children were gathered around to watch the fun. The third roommate, Mr. Jiang, also came with her children, all of whom wanted to bring some happiness.

The four beams were dyed bright red respectively. A piece of red cloth was tied in the middle of the beam, and five copper coins were tied in the middle of the red cloth.

Red paper was pasted with auspicious words such as good luck and good luck, good harvests, etc., and tied with red rope in the center of each house.

In front of the offering table were pig heads, pig tails, chickens, ducks, geese, candies and five-color glutinous rice.

Shen Dong and Shen Xi took the second room of the Shen family to worship respectfully, murmuring: "The auspicious time has come, go up to the beam, it will be safe and auspicious." After saying that, they took the wine and sprinkled it on the beam.

"The auspicious time has arrived..." Shen Dong solemnly shouted loudly.

"The weather is auspicious and the weather is bright and joyful"

“The new owner of Haohuatang”

"The golden rope pulls the beam up"

"The auspicious star shines high and lasts for a long time"

“The new house will be a great blessing and great fortune”

"The Grand Duke is here, the gods avoid..."

There were six men standing on the roof, three on each side. Each of them listened to Shen Dong's shouting and pulled the rope up rhythmically.

"The next step is the best"

"Two steps forward, twin phoenixes rising to the sun"

"Three steps up, three yuan and the third place"

"Take four steps forward and look majestic on all sides"

"Five steps up and you'll get a good harvest"

"Six steps up and six six steps up"

"Fire the cannon, let's mount the beam..."

The festive firecrackers sounded, and the beam was firmly placed in the center of the roof.

Shen Ping respectfully gave red envelopes to all the masters.

Shen Dong and Shen Xi sat on the beams holding large wooden sieves with the plugs filled with candies. They picked up various candies, fried glutinous rice cakes, and copper coins and threw them down.

As he threw it, he said: "The hand was full of joy, and the east beam scattered it on the north beam. The old man picked up Tianfushou, and the young man picked up Dingwang. The man picked up the strong as a tiger, and the woman picked up the Xixishi."

Immediately, the people standing under the house looked at the candies and copper coins thrown away, and started grabbing them excitedly.

Mrs. Jiang took her sons, Big Tiger and Two Tigers, with quick eyesight and quick hands to grab it. While grabbing it, they put it in their pockets. In a short time, they filled a full pocket.

Ms. Liao was also among the crowd, hiding at home for a few days, and finally came out again these days. When I heard that Shen Ping's house was going to be built, I waited here early.

Looking at the candies and copper coins scattered, Liao wanted to lie down on the ground and grab them quickly because of her old age.

The grabbing gesture was so arrogant that even Zhang Tiezhu and Li shook their heads as they watched.

Anyway, in this case, whoever is thick-skinned will grab the most. After a while, Liao's pockets were filled with candies and oil cakes, and there were more than ten copper coins in his hand. Liao was so happy that she couldn't open her mouth from ear to ear.

"Yo! Who do I think you are, snatching all the copper coins from my hand? It turns out to be you, Mrs. Liao." Widow Wu said in a high voice with her eyes wide open.

"hey-hey……"

Ms. Liao sneered: "Widow, why are you here to rob me? Maybe someone will send something to your house in the dark at night."

I'm not grabbing it from you. If you can't catch it yourself, don't blame others. "

"you……"

Widow Wu was shaking with anger, and her face turned red and white at what Liao said.

Suddenly, Widow Wu rolled her eyes, took a deep breath, and said angrily: "Mrs. Liao, you are right, you didn't steal it? But you stole it! What? Did you forget? How about I remind you? you?"

"Hahaha……"

Everyone couldn't help laughing after hearing Widow Wu's meaningful words.

I remembered the night when I was caught with all the stolen goods. Mrs. Liao blushed and said angrily: "You are such a coquettish person, you don't expect to argue with an old woman at such a young age..."

"I bother!"

Widow Wu spat on the ground: "I'm young and I want face. Unlike you, it's shameless to rely on your old age and act like an old man. If you don't have one, you still want to steal. It's embarrassing for you. You still have the nerve to hang out!"

"you you……"

Mrs. Liao's face became colorful, and she was speechless by Widow Wu's words. She wanted to beg for another meal, but Widow Wu gave her a slap in the face, and finally left in despair.

The beam-laying ceremony was finally completed here. In the kitchen, the Wen family, Gao family, and Cheng family were busy and cooked eight dishes.

Several large pots of white flour steamed buns were steamed, and several large pots of white rice were cooked.

Shen Ping asked Zhang Tiezhu and Jiang's second wife to stay here for dinner, and they just made up a table. Zhang Tiezhu hesitated for a long time and refused to eat.

"Grandpa, just sit down and eat..."

"Yes! Grandpa, there are so many delicious dishes..."

Sun Tzu Dahu, Erhu, and Adong all said one after another.

What is this old man thinking? Finally, the second daughter-in-law asked for a meal, so she could take the opportunity to improve the food and act like a little daughter-in-law, so why are you so pretentious!

Li Shi glared at Zhang Tiezhu fiercely before he sat down.

On the table there are braised pig ears, pickled pig intestines, chicken stewed with mushrooms, pork fried fungus, tomatoes and eggs.

Hot and sour potato shreds, stir-fried cabbage, pork ribs stewed in radish soup, two large bowls of white flour steamed buns and white rice were placed on each table.

Zhang Tiezhu and Mr. Li were dumbfounded by this large table of dishes, and couldn't help but secretly feel sad. They didn't know it unless they came, and they were shocked when they saw it.

The second daughter-in-law, a prodigal woman, has a house with dozens of people, but she can cook so many delicious dishes. The pots are full of meat, and all of this is just money!

As soon as the food was served, everyone stopped talking and started eating one after another. Watching them eat delicious food.

Zhang Tiezhu and Mrs. Li couldn't care less about their distress and started eating one after another. This dish was so delicious that I didn’t care about anything else and started devouring it.
