Love in the Siheyuan: Starting from Jia Dongxu

The logistics department of Lou's Steel Rolling Mill signed a vegetable supply and marketing agreement with Jiajia Village and Qinjia Village. After signing, Zhang Youwei planned to have someone send the people back to the village. He was stopped by Jia Dongxu, who said that his father-in-law had come to the city and wanted to invite him to his house for dinner.

Qin Dazhuang was still a little worried, fearing that his daughter would be looked down upon. But when Jia Dongxu told him that the registration had been completed and that the wedding banquet would be held at the weekend, he happily felt relieved.

So Jia Dongxu left early in the afternoon under Jia Anguo's dissatisfied gaze.

"Dongxu, your elder brother is a serious person, don't take it to heart." Seeing Jia Anguo's unhappy expression, Jia Zhenye hurriedly spoke to Jia Dongxu.

"It's okay, second uncle, let's talk about how to grow vegetables while we walk." Jia Dongxu said.

"My eldest brother also said yesterday that we should use the mountain behind us to grow vegetables. Do you have any objections?"

"Well, it's nothing, except that it will consume a lot of manpower." Jia Zhenye said after thinking for a while.

"Zhenye, don't worry. Everyone is free now. Any family can contribute some labor. Adults will be considered adults, and children will be considered children." Qin Dahe said from the side.

"We are two villages. When the time comes, we will count everyone's labor and calculate how much each person gets based on the income from selling vegetables." Jia Zhenye said, looking at Jia Dongxu.

"Dongxu, I have to thank you for finding a way out for everyone in the village. I suggest that Dongxu be responsible for contacting the steel mill and count it as one person's labor."

"Well, sure. The subsequent construction of the greenhouse and the liaison with the steel mill will all require Dongxu's guidance." Qin Dahe said, looking at his elder brother.

Qin Dazhuang nodded and said, "Then let's go back and mobilize people tomorrow. It will take some effort to open up the wasteland."

Jia Dongxu led the way. After hearing about land reclamation, he said, "I don't know if you have heard of terraced fields. Let's reclaim the mountain into terraced fields, raise the steps, build up the sides with stones or soil, and directly lay wooden boards on top to make a greenhouse."

"Well, okay, I roughly know what you want to say. People from our two villages will all contribute someone, so we can definitely set it up." Jia Zhenye said.

Jia Dongxu looked at the few people who seemed to understand but not quite. "But I'm still worried that you don't understand. I'll build a sample for you to see when I get back."

Just explain to them while you are building it, such as how high to build the sides, how to install the glass, and how big it should be. I should be able to explain it clearly.

The demolition of Sha Zhu's house had begun. He spent 2 yuan to ask people in the yard to help him move his belongings out and piled them in the room exposed to the rain.

Jia Zhang said that she would bring Yu Shui to live with her in the future so that she could take care of her more easily. Jia Dongxu had no objection either, as she was still a little girl, and it would be fine if she moved to her own room when she grew up.

Jia Zhang and Qin Huairu have already moved all their things into the house, so it looks like they can move into their new home today.

When Jia Dongxu brought the three of them to the courtyard, they saw Jia Zhang and Qin Huairu cleaning the house.

When Qin Dazhuang saw Jia Dongxu's new house, he was naturally happy for his daughter. When Qin Huairu pointed to the piglets surrounded by bricks at the door and said it was a betrothal gift for her, Qin Dazhuang was extremely happy.

"Brother, stop laughing and be more calm in front of our in-laws." Qin Dahe said with a smile. His niece was lucky to marry into such a well-off family in the city, and her dowry was a piglet. If she raised it up, she would get 200 yuan.

Jia Dongxu quickly asked Jia Zhangshi and Qin Huairu to cook for the three of them. Jia Dongxu hurriedly pulled the three of them together and explained to them how to build a greenhouse by using wood to build a greenhouse.

After listening to this, several people suddenly realized that the wall of the terrace facing the mountain should be built high, and a low wall should be built on the other side, and wooden boards should be laid diagonally on it. The boards should be removed in the summer. After this explanation, everyone understood.

After understanding it, Jia Dongxu handed the money for building the experimental greenhouse to Jia Zhenye, saying that he should use the money to build as many greenhouses as possible to see how many he could build.

When Qin Huairu called everyone to eat, several people reluctantly went to the table to eat.

Jia Zhang was very happy to see Old Jia coming. The more wronged she had felt before, the happier she was now.

When I heard a few people say that Jia Dongxu asked the villagers to grow vegetables to provide for the steel mill, I felt even more proud. You know, his son had only been in the factory for one week and had accomplished such a great thing. He was indeed capable.

Several people implicitly praised Jia Zhang for raising her son well, saying that not only did she live a good life, but she also led her fellow villagers to live a good life together.

After the meal, Jia Zhenye was anxious to go back, saying that he wanted to quickly gather everyone to go and reclaim the wasteland, because the autumn harvest would be in less than half a month, and they had to try to reclaim the mountain within half a month.

After hearing this, Qin Dazhuang and Qin Dahe hurriedly got up and left immediately. However, by the time they got back, it would be midnight. They had to call a meeting of people from the two villages the next morning, so time was tight.

Jia Zhang quickly handed the candy and cloth she had bought to Qin Dazhuang. Like the piglet, they were the betrothal gifts. It seemed that Jia Zhang was very satisfied with Qin Huairu and was willing to pay extra money for the betrothal gifts to make herself look good in front of the Qin family.

Jia Dongxu was watching from the side. After Jia Zhang had a lot of money, she looked less mean than before. He nodded at his mother's generosity. It was true that she would be different after having money.

After the others left, Jia Dongxu took Qin Huairu to the supply and marketing cooperative. They had agreed yesterday to buy Qin Huairu some supplies.

Only when Qin Huairu had spent all the money in her pocket did Jia Dongxu smile and pull the sad-looking Qin Huairu out.

"It's all your fault. I've spent all the money I had." Qin Huairu said as she walked.

"I'm buying things for you. A new bride always needs new things." Jia Dongxu said with a smile, "You can use your basin to take a bath today."

Qin Huairu said dissatisfiedly, "You just dislike me, why don't we just use the same basin?"

"Aren't you disgusted by the basin that catches the piglet's urine?" Jia Dongxu said with a smile.

"But a basin costs so much money, I can't bear it." Qin Huairu said.

Seeing Qin Huairu's expression, Jia Dongxu said, "Don't feel bad. When I have enough money, I will fill your pockets and give you 45 yuan. How about that?"

"What 45 yuan?" Qin Huairu said in surprise, "Dongxu, how much is your salary?"

"Well, fifty-five, it's not too much nor too little," said Jia Dongxu.

"Or you should give me less money. I'm afraid I don't know how to count." Qin Huairu said. The money she saw in a month was more than what her family saw in a year. She felt a little panicked.

"Haha, just buy some vegetables, some grain, and some other things every month. It won't cost much. The rest can be saved for our son to marry." Jia Dongxu said on the side.

"Okay, let's save money for our son to get married." Qin Huairu said happily, but after a while she became worried again, "Dongxu, you have to earn more. If we have more sons, this money may not be enough."
