Go back to ancient times and marry a widow
Chapter 37 Building a House
The men, women and children in the village wanted to join in the fun, and this morning, a lot of villagers gathered in the open space in front of Qi's house.
Elderly people are sitting by the wall basking in the sun, children are chasing each other and playing, and women gather together to chat, hold the soles of their shoes, and pay attention to what is going on over there. A few old men who are busy.
"Hey, my family Da Changzi said that after finishing building a house for Qi Wensheng and his family, he will go to the town and buy me a horse of good material when he gets the wages." The woman scratched her head with the tip of a needle between her words, and her face A hint of show off appeared on the face.
Another woman went on to say: "Yesterday, Chengzi of my family also said that he wanted to make a pair of bracelets for me, but I work every day, so wearing them is a waste, and then Chengzi said that he would make me a pair of bracelets." Earrings are enough."
"Look, it's your son who knows how to love others."
"Your family's Dachangzi is not bad either. That good horse is very precious." The woman turned her head and asked the people beside her as she spoke, "Hey, Mrs. Li, do you think so?"
"Well, that's not it." Li Shi smiled after hearing this, but her heart was actually very sour and angry.
The men of these two women are all helping Qi Wensheng's family, and they can earn forty Wen a day. She asked Zheng Dafu to come over early yesterday morning, thinking if she could get some cheap money.
As a result, Zheng Dafu went back angrily, and that rogue Er Niu actually said that her family's Dafu's stomach is too big, and he might have enough food for two or three people!
"Just now I saw that Er Niu brought back such a large piece of meat, and said it was stewed for them at noon." Another woman said that her man was also selected by Er Niu to build a house for Qi Wensheng.
"Oh, I hope the house of the Qi family can be built until next year."
"Heh, you are so beautiful. Didn't you hear Qi Wensheng say that the work will be finished before the autumn harvest?"
Speaking of this, several people looked at each other, and then they were all tacitly happy, and someone said directly: "I see him, he can't wait to marry a wife."
"Hahaha, no."
Hearing these words made Li even more unhappy. Zheng Dagui had died less than a year ago, and Qiuxi was in a hurry to get married again. Isn't this embarrassing to their old Zheng's family?
Besides, this is the same for Qi Wensheng. It is not good to marry anyone, but marry a poor widow with children. I can't figure out what he is trying to do?Mrs. Li was muttering in her heart angrily, when she saw Mrs. Liu coming out of the gate with Dou'er in her arms.
"Mother, come and sit down." A woman yelled at Mrs. Liu.
Mrs. Liu responded, walked over with a smile and asked, "What are you talking about? Laughing so loudly."
The same woman said with a smile: "We are talking about your family Wen Sheng's success, and we will build you a big tile house."
"Hey, I don't have much promise." Liu smiled until her eyes were crooked, but she felt elated.In the past, who among these people didn't gossip about their family behind their backs and read their family's jokes?
Li Shi followed with a smirk, and she immediately noticed the pair of shining silver bracelets on Liu Shi's wrists, and the longevity lock on Dou'er's neck.
Looking at Douer's small clothes made of good materials, Li Shi couldn't help but snort in his heart, this is really taking the baby he picked up as a baby bump.
"Oh, Dou'er really looks more and more like Qiuxi as he grows. When I brought him back, I told them that he was a father and two at first sight." Li said to Liu with a smile on his face, but there was something in his heart. Bad water is churning.
Isn't there something in the words, the people around immediately quieted down, and listened with their ears open.
Mrs. Liu has eaten more salt than Mrs. Li for more than 20 years. She wiped the wet corners of Dou'er's mouth with a handkerchief, and said with a smile: "That's right, this child can be like whoever raises it. When I grow up, I have to look like our Wen Sheng."
Mrs. Li felt her throat was congested, so she smiled unnaturally. Before her words caused a storm, Mrs. Liu flattened her.
Several other village women echoed, saying that this is not the case, and then they talked about their children one by one.
This side has been bustling with activity, and the people who built the house on the other side are also working in full swing.
Qi Wensheng and them just pushed down a courtyard wall of Qi's house, and now he was coughing because of the dust, Er Niu saw him and joked: "Just say you can't do it, and you still have to join in the fun, and besides, there is me Keep an eye on it, what else do you have to worry about?"
Er Niu knew that Qi Wensheng could earn a lot of money by going to the town every day. In his opinion, he paid unnecessary wages here, and the business was delayed again. This is not a big loss.
Qi Wensheng ignored Er Niu's words. He dusted off the dirt on his body, thinking that he had made his own arrangements for this matter. Could he not be present on the first day of construction?But looking at the seven villagers Er Niu picked to build houses, they are all real people who can work.
Qi Wensheng watched a few of them tidy up the mound of the courtyard wall, and the others mixed the mortar with the mason, and then Er Niu said again: "Oh, you are willing to use materials, why marry Qiuxi and do this?" What about the next book?" He still can't figure it out, how can a body like Qiuxi be comfortable in the bed?
Qi Wensheng's expression changed immediately, "Stop talking nonsense! Hurry up and get to work." As he spoke, he raised his leg to kick Er Niu's ass.
Er Niu quickly straightened his waist flexibly, dodged Qi Wensheng's offensive, and ran forward with a "hehehe" smile, unexpectedly, he was tripped by a stone and fell to the ground within a few steps after running out.
The surrounding villagers immediately burst into laughter, especially a few village women who laughed the loudest.It was rare for Er Niu to get up from the ground with a blushing face, and he had to hold back not to show his teeth, thinking that he was a joke for everyone today.
Qi Wensheng was the first to restrain his smile before the others, and then he looked at the large puddle of mortar on the ground over there. Just now Er Niu said that he was willing to use materials, which was what he was referring to.
People here generally use lime mortar to build houses, because its cost is very low, but the walls are easily affected by moisture. After years of exposure to the sun and rain, the walls will crack.
The current old houses of Qi's family are very damp, and Qi Wensheng is afraid that they will become dilapidated if they live in them for a few more years.
Yesterday, he and the mason decided to use glutinous rice mortar, that is, mix boiled glutinous rice into lime water. The house built with it will be absolutely strong, and of course the money spent will have to be doubled.
It doesn't matter to Qi Wensheng if he spends more money, what he wants to build is a house that can shelter from wind and rain, and he wants to give Qiuxi the best.
It seems that the beginning of autumn is almost here, and the temperature in the mountains drops every day at night. Qi Wensheng feels sorry for Qiuxi and Douer living in such an environment.
After a few days, as soon as the house was built, he would have a big wedding. Thinking that he would soon be the bridegroom's official, Qi Wensheng was happy all the way from the bottom of his heart to his face.
But when his eyes turned away inadvertently, the smile on his face suddenly froze.
I saw Qiuxi standing under a big tree over there, who was supposed to be cooking in the kitchen at the moment?More importantly, why is he still talking and laughing with a young woman?
Qi Wensheng couldn't help feeling jealous, and he quickly walked towards Qiuxi with big strides.During this time, the woman gave Qiuxi a bundle, and Qiuxi took the bundle, and took out something from the skirt and handed it to the woman.
How do you make it look like two people are exchanging tokens?Qi Wensheng's jealousy intensified, he squinted his eyes and looked at it, and recognized that it wasn't the peach blossom of Bao Chang's family,
Hey, he didn't know that Qiuxi and Taohua had such a good relationship, last time Taohua still gave him a face.
"Hey, Qi Wensheng! Come over and have a look, a treasure has been dug up in your field!"
Er Niu suddenly yelled at the top of his voice, and everyone who heard it immediately ran towards him, and even squeezed Qi Wensheng to turn around.
Not far away, Qiuxi also heard the movement. He turned his head and glanced at it, not paying much attention, thinking that this was probably Erniu's exaggerated words.He opened the bag that Peach Blossom gave him, looked at it, then smiled and said, "Thank you very much."
Facing Qiu Xi's beautiful smile, Tao Hua's cheeks turned slightly warm, she lowered her head halfway, and whispered: "No...it's nothing, I just can't use it."
When Qiu Xi was walking back with her bundle, she heard a woman say, "What, that Er Niu is blah, so I don't know who stepped on me just now."
Qiuxi didn't want to go to join in the fun, he entered the courtyard gate, but didn't see Qi Wensheng staring at him.
On this day, Qi Wensheng followed everyone until dusk, the chaotic crowd dispersed, and the courtyard of Qi's family suddenly became quiet.
While eating, Qi Wensheng dawdled on purpose, and now the days were getting shorter, watching the orange-red sunset hang down from the top of the mountain, night was coming.
Mrs. Liu finished her meal early and went back to her room with Dou'er in her arms.Qi Wensheng laughed secretly, thinking that Mrs. Liu was a good mother, seeing what he was thinking, and cooperated with him without saying a word.
After Qiuxi washed the dishes, he saw that the sky had already dimmed. He glanced at the paper windows in Liu's house, and he was hesitating, when he heard Qi Wensheng say: "My mother fell asleep with the beans. She is also tired today."
After hearing this, Qiuxi thought that the weather was getting cold now, and it would be good if Douer didn't go back with him, so he wiped his hands and said to Qi Wensheng: "Then I'll go back, you've been busy for a day, wait a while." Go to bed early."
While Qiuxi was talking, he felt the black shadow in front of him getting heavier. It was Qi Wensheng who slowly approached him, until his words fell, and Qi Wensheng also stood in front of him, blocking the last bit of light outside the door.
"Huh? What did you say?"
Qi Wensheng's breath swept across Qiuxi's face, Qiuxi couldn't help but flinch slightly, Qi Wensheng's eyes shone brightly in the darkness, and there was a faint undisguised fiery...
Qiu Xi suddenly felt his legs go weak, and he knew that he would not be able to walk tonight...
Elderly people are sitting by the wall basking in the sun, children are chasing each other and playing, and women gather together to chat, hold the soles of their shoes, and pay attention to what is going on over there. A few old men who are busy.
