Leisurely Farmer's Family: A Strong Man and His Broken Leg Son-in-law

After returning home for a drink, Li Dongsheng began to contact the kiln factory to buy bricks and tiles. Because he had enough money, he did not owe money on credit. Within five days, all the bricks and tiles were delivered!

After Liu Yu and Changsheng finished their busy work every day, they would bring Xiaoxue over to move!

Liu Yuyuan thought that Xiaoxue was too young to be of much help, so it would be better to accompany Nian at home to do some light work and keep him company!

"I let Xiaoxue run errands together. I didn't expect her to do much work. It's just that she and Dongsheng are a bit unfamiliar. They keep seeing each other every day. As time goes by, they develop feelings for each other. In the future, they can live in the same place and let go. Be more comfortable!”

These were Nian's original words. After hearing this, Liu Yu felt very right, so every time she went to Liweizi, she would take Xiaoxue with her!

Li Dongsheng is both attentive and good at being a good person. In his free time, when he talked about how the house was built, he would always lead Xiaoxue to ask her what kind of decoration she would like, and then give her a dressing mirror in the house!

After talking a lot, Xiaoxue started to look forward to the new house. Later, when she heard Li Dongsheng and Liu Meixiang discussing the construction of the house, she was able to chirp a few words!

When they left, Liu Yu and Changsheng were busy with other things, so she ran away by herself. After that, she mostly ate in the newly built mud house, and only came back when she was sleeping!

With Xiaoxue like this, Li Dongsheng, Liu Meixiang, and Nian all breathed a sigh of relief!

Things have been moved one after another, and now there is only an empty shell of the old house. It is not yet the busy season, and Li Dongsheng is anxious to finish the house before the autumn harvest!

So I asked the village chief to look through the almanac and find the nearest auspicious day. He also invited a mason who was good at this in the village and hired some small workers.

On a sunny and auspicious day, a table is served, a bunch of firecrackers are lit, and the demolition of the house begins!

Building a house is a man's business, Liu Yu can't get involved. There are many people working, but he is responsible for the lunch meal. Liu Yu often finishes the work in the family field, and if he has time, he will come to help. Choose vegetables and wash them!

Later, when Xiu Xiu took over these trivial tasks, Liu Yu completely gave up and only concentrated on taking care of the bamboo rats at home and taking care of the crops in the fields!

Even though Nian Shi and Liu Meixiang were worried about the unrecovered bone injuries in his legs and feet, they would not let him do heavy work. However, the crops in the field were about to grow, and the work of ten acres of land depended on Liu Yu alone. , too strenuous!

Every time after eating a meal and washing the stove, I would go to the fields to catch insects and pull weeds!

The caught bugs are carefully placed in a cloth bag. This is also a good thing. You can take it home and eat it with the chickens and ducks. The chickens and ducks will also be more diligent in laying eggs!

Nian was responsible for three meals a day and some light work in the vegetable garden, and Liu Fusheng naturally took over the work of herding cattle. He would often bring a pipe and pot and lead the cattle out for half a day!

Liu Maoye and the three Liu Fan brothers went to Liweizi to help build a house. Among them, except Liu Maoye, they didn't know how to lay bricks and build walls. They only did the work of carrying bricks, passing bricks, and combining soil!

In the end, I don’t know how Xu Hong scolded Liu Maolin. Three or five days after the construction of the house started, Liu Maolin appeared in Liweizi with a straight face and carrying a masonry knife for laying bricks!

Seeing his father-in-law coming, Li Dongsheng didn't say anything else. He greeted him warmly and said, "Dad, you are here. Just now we were discussing whether the gables in this house should be built together or separately. You have seen so many things." Shi Guang, give us an idea!"

In this way, Liu Maolin's face became a little brighter. After walking around the newly built three-foot-high base, he made a few suggestions without saying much nonsense. He took the bricks handed over by Liu Yan and started working!

With so many people working non-stop from morning to night, it took only seven or eight days to build several gables!

After a few days of work, the roof was erected with beams, the wheat straw was plastered with soil, and the tiles were laid. Just in time for the autumn harvest, the last ridge tile was finally put on!

Li Dongsheng's banquet was filled with flowing water, five tables were opened, and five rounds of food were eaten. There were too few talents!

"This large blue brick house with tiles is the only one in our village. It is also the village chief's house. We can bring it over for comparison!"

"No, those beams are all freshly dried wood. You can't live in such a house for more than a hundred years!"

"If I had known that Dongsheng was so promising, I would have married my niece off early, but now I don't have much!"

"What are you talking about? You just see Dongsheng treating Mei Xiang so well and you don't think about all this. Be careful if the master hears and coaxes you out!"

The husband who was washing the dishes, and the woman who was speaking unobtrusively with her elbow, signaled her to please look at the occasion, so as not to displease the master!

"Hey, I'm just saying this, how can I really have such thoughts? Mei Xiang can't misunderstand me, right, Mei Xiang!"

Liu Meixiang passed by carrying a basket of steamed buns. When she heard this, she turned around and smiled, saying, "I didn't hear what my aunt said!"

"Nothing's wrong, I praise you and Dongsheng for living a prosperous and beautiful life!"

The woman breathed a sigh of relief and waved her hands!

"Thank you for your kind words, aunts, uncles, and sisters-in-law. Thank you for your hard work today. If you don't mind the banquets that have been taken down, please share a portion and take them back with you when you leave!"

"I don't mind it, I don't mind it! It's so oily and full of meat and vegetables, but I still dislike it. My kids at home like it!"

Liu Meixiang just smiled and hurriedly went to the house to sort out the ingredients that were not put on the stove. The villagers helped, but they couldn't just let them take the leftovers back, most of which were clean meat!

The new house has just been built, so there is no rush to move. It will take a while to dry out in the dark. In the other house, we still need to set up a kang, buy furniture, and have all the piles and piles. Choose an auspicious day, and invite your relatives to set up a hot pot and wine. It’s time to move!

The bamboo rats at home are about to be released from the cage. Liu Yu singles out the male rats for sale and raises them in one place. The daily feeding is more meticulous and the cleaning is more diligent to ensure that the fur of each bamboo rat is smooth and smooth and looks clean. That’s it!

The sesame seeds and beans at home have been harvested. After patting a bunch of fallen sesame stalks several times, all the sesame seeds have been patted down, dried in the sun for a while, blown off the lint on them, and carefully collected in the pocket!

After beating the beans, the round beans were dried thoroughly in the sun and put into jars!

The only things left in the field are sweet potatoes and cotton. These two can grow longer, just uproot them and dig them up before planting wheat!

We have cows at home this year, so digging sweet potatoes is even easier. Just hitch the plow and dig directly into the field ridges. It’s very fast and won’t delay the sowing of winter wheat!

That evening, Li Dongsheng came home and informed Liu Yu to go to the county seat early tomorrow morning!

"My family will start picking cotton the day after tomorrow, and we won't have time to spare. Let's get rid of the bamboo rats first in these two days!"

Liu Yu was overjoyed when she heard this, and she looked at Changsheng with joy in their eyes!
