The Ancient Life of the Doomsday

The new house has been busily being repaired, and the workers also want to finish the house before the spring planting and go home to work on the fields, so each of them is working hard.

Seeing everyone's hard work, Pei Shaorong is also very satisfied. Every time it's time to eat pork, he will prepare more, and occasionally add a few bottles of shochu for everyone. The man who eats and works is full of motivation.

A few days before the spring planting, the new house was finally completed. From the outside, it looked like a very ordinary green brick and tile house, but the fence wall in the yard had become a green brick protective wall.

But when you walk into the house, it is absolutely amazing. Most of the layout and furniture are also in the style here, but some small things have been changed.

First of all, the ground of the whole house is covered with bluestone like the courtyard in the town. Whether it is the visual effect or the tactile effect of stepping on it, it is definitely not comparable to the muddy land of ordinary farmers.

The second is the bedroom. On top of the bluestone floor, Pei Shaorong added a wooden floor, which everyone found very novel.

Many workers think that they will do the same when they build their own houses in the future. Anyway, the wood for the floor can be cut in the mountains, and it does not cost money. It looks beautiful and is comfortable to step on.

There are also toilets and bathrooms. Pei Shaorong also carefully designed and repaired them. He decided not to dig a hole and build a latrine in ancient times. That would be too tortured!

Because Pei Shaorong was willing to spend money, most of the houses were repaired with blue bricks and huge stones, and the blue bricks here were actually cut out of stones, not fired, and they were very strong, and the houses built were also extraordinarily strong.

I have a small family, and Pei Shaorong didn't renovate the house too much. There are only three bedrooms and a large living room, one for adults, one for future children, and one reserved guest room for sometimes entertaining guests.

In addition, it is the kitchen, toilet, bathroom, and a small utility room. As for the place to store food and other things, I will use the old house and cellar I live in in the future.

The new house is basically repaired, and it can be lived in after waiting for a period of time to dry the rest of the furniture and items.

It is indeed a big expense to repair the house, especially when Pei Shaorong has picked up everything, the money is even more than expected.

According to the general cost of repairing a green brick and tile house in the village, it is about 50 taels, but when it comes to Pei's house, that is not the amount at all...

The first is the blue bricks. Usually, the place where people spend the most money in building a house is also on the green bricks, but they are just building a house, and most of the supporting pillars inside are replaced with wood. It would be good to spend up to 20 taels.

But when he got to Pei's house, it was completely doubled. There was no way, who told him to build a protective wall, which cost him a full 40 taels of silver!

In addition to the green bricks, the other cost of Pei's house repair is the gate and the anti-theft iron teeth on the protective wall. You must know that iron is not cheap here, but Pei Shaorong even replaced all the doors in the house with iron...

Adding up the tiles on the roof, the making of the furniture in the house, the wages of the workers, and the cost of providing food for everyone during the work, etc., the Pei family spent more than 100 taels of silver in total this time.

The money is not too much for the Pei family now, it is definitely a trivial matter, but it is a big number for the villagers.

Fortunately, everyone guessed that the Pei family spent a lot of money to repair the house, but they didn't know the exact figure, otherwise the Pei family would definitely become the focus of the village!

But even so, Pei Shaorong's newly built house has become a hot topic in the village. Now no one dares to say that he is poor, and now Pei's family is also a well-off household with a house and land.

Because the house that was built this time was really big and rich, and recently many people in the village started hanging around in front of Pei Shaorong and Mo Xiaobao.

Inquiring about how much his family earned from going to Yueyang City this time, the intention of playing Qiufeng is too obvious, even Father Mo came to the door and wanted to know the results of their business.

Pei Shaorong also knew that the house he built would definitely become the focus of everyone's heated discussion and be marked with the word 'rich'.

But this house is indeed a big deal, and it cannot be taken lightly. Therefore, Pei Shaorong also prepared a way to deal with the people from the village who came to inquire, pretending to be stupid and poor!

How much money the family has earned is only known to me and A Bao, as long as they don't tell, who knows how much they have earned?

The villagers inquired about what business he did in Yueyang City, and Pei Shaorong didn't hide it. Some villagers had seen their hawthorn preserves before.

If these people are willing to invest money and dare to risk losing money to make preserved fruits, he has no problem.

That is, he can't guarantee whether he will make a profit or lose at that time, but if it is such a large investment to buy sugar, I believe there will be few people in the village who are willing...

For the next few days, Pei Shaorong and Mo Xiaobao acted in front of people as if they had spent all the money they had just earned, and they would be worried again in the future, which convinced many villagers.

It is reasonable to earn money to buy fields and build houses, and other people in the village will do the same. After all, the men of the Pei family moved here from outside. At the beginning, they didn’t even have land. It's for living.

And many villagers also reacted when they thought of Pei Shaorong when he first came here. Although everyone kept talking about the poor man of the Pei family at that time, they never said that they were poor from the beginning to the end, and they usually wore top clothes. good cotton clothes

Look at his figure and appearance, he doesn't look like a poor person, just his 'out of the ordinary' temperament doesn't look like someone from a poor family at all!

No matter what everyone thinks or looks at, once the spring seeds arrive, everyone has no time to chat and gossip, and all their energy is put on farming and sowing.

At the beginning of farming, Pei Shaorong finally understood why this farm family paid so much attention to men in ancient times. All the work in this field depends on men, otherwise the family will be hungry.

My family has ten acres of land, and I and Abao definitely can't grow it. Even if I can finish it, I will be exhausted. There is no way, so Pei Shaorong has to spend money to hire someone to help.

Originally, Papa Mo was planning to let Pei Shaorong, a cheap son-in-law, and Mo Xiaobao go home to help him farm, but who knew that Pei Shaorong would buy the field so soon.

This not only bought a field, but also bought ten acres, and he couldn't go home to help him plant the land, which made Father Mo feel very depressed. Why didn't any of his wishful thinking come true now... …

They found two honest men in the village to help, and Pei Shaorong and Mo Xiaobao also started to get busy.

After staying in the village for so long, Pei Shaorong also knows how to farm, but this is the first time he has practiced it, and the effect is not as good as he thought.

But Mo Xiaobao, a little brother, is much better at doing farm work than him. Ever since he started planting, Mo Xiaobao has shown his power, and explained to Pei Shaorong what the village called his "capable" little brother before!

After all the grain seeds and fruit seedlings are sown and inserted, the busy spring planting is basically over, and every household is finally a little idle, and the rest is the daily maintenance of the fields.

The Pei family is not busy anymore, the newly repaired house has been aired and ventilated, and on an auspicious day with good weather, Pei Shaorong and Mo Xiaobao moved to the new house.

In Linjiang Village, there was no talk about moving and banquets, so Pei Shaorong didn't plan to treat guests or anything. On the day of moving, firecrackers were set off to make a fuss, and then he moved in!

Seeing that the life of the Pei family is getting better and better day by day, everyone in the village is envious and jealous, and the one who is the most jealous among them is Liu Meihua.

Thinking that her man was snatched from others at the beginning, now seeing that Mo Xiaobao has better food and clothing than herself, before she said that he was poor, but now that he is buying fields and repairing houses, Liu Meihua is so worried Especially not the taste.

I also remembered that because of Pei Shaorong's troubles during the Chinese New Year, her family didn't even eat pork during the Chinese New Year. Later, Mo Xiaobao and Pei Shaorong went for a walk in Yueyang City, which attracted the envy of the whole village. Liu Meihua I felt even more uncomfortable.

Isn't it just wearing cotton clothes and living in a new house to go to Yueyang City?

Liu Meihua was not convinced that Mo Xiaobao was better than herself, but she made up her mind to build a brick house to make the villagers envy her.

"Head of the family, while the house is not busy, go to the next village to collect stones. There is thirty yuan a day, and every piece of green stone is worth another silver. You go, and next year my family will also build a house of blue bricks! "Liu Meihua encouraged.

"Heads, now that we are young and strong, we have to earn money quickly. Although mining stones is a bit tiring, there is a lot of money..."

"..."

Wang Afu couldn't believe his ears. There was a stone mountain in Xinghua Village next door. The blue stones on it were the source of the blue bricks. The whole mountain was owned by a rich man, and he set up a stone mining team. The wages were very attractive. people.

But the problem is that it is too tiring and too dangerous. If you are not careful, you will be killed by a stone falling from the mountain. Damn it.

Wang Afu was a little reluctant. Although his family was not rich, it was not too poor. There were fields, land and food, and it was not to the point where he had to work hard...

Liu Meihua also knew that it was dangerous to ask her husband to work, but there was a lot of money, and if she didn't take risks, she could earn money. Could it be that her family was going to be poor for the rest of her life, living in such a broken hut that leaked even when it rained?

Thinking of Mo Xiaobao's current life and her own life, Liu Meihua felt resentful and wronged, why did she blindly fall in love with Wang Afu back then.

For a man like Wang Afu, not only did he bear the reputation of stealing husbands until now, but when he got married, he even wore Wang Afu's mother's old clothes for the wedding dress.

No, I can't live in this shabby hut forever, I must build a better house than Pei's house to make everyone envy me!

"Wang Afu, you useless man, look at how our family is living now. I have been married to you for so long and have worn new clothes several times. My son doesn't even want to eat a shortbread. What are you in charge of? My wife and son can't afford it, woo woo woo..."

"Wuwu, Wang Afu, you are useless. Why did I fall in love with you blindly at the beginning? Wuwuwu, let me tell you, you have to do this job, otherwise we can't make it through. I will take my son back to my mother's house , woo woo woo..."

Liu Meihua was not gentle in the first place, but now she has made up her mind to let Wang Afu go to collect stones to earn money and go home to build a big house no matter what!

Wang Afu felt bad when she said that she was being rude and threatening, and Wang Afu was also a little angry when he heard Liu Meihua say that she was useless and blind to her words.

"That's enough Liu Meihua, are you annoying by yelling all day long? You know how to make noise all day long. If I had known, I would have married Abao back then..."

"...Wang Afu, you heartless, I knew you still had that bitch Mo Xiaobao in your heart, you said, if Mo Xiaobao hadn't married now, would you have married him back again, ah, Tell me, heartless, woo woo woo, I'm not going to live anymore, I'm not going to live..."

When Liu Meihua heard that Wang Afu said that she regretted marrying her, she immediately blew up, and she got up and started to fight with Wang Afu.

Wang Afu was also angry at this time, it was a rebellion for a woman to dare to fight her man, and she started to fight back when she was depressed, and the two fought in the room...
