The life of farming in ancient times with a system

Chapter 37 Meeting Jiang Daizhen Again

After half a month of busy work, Lin Shen's house was almost finished, and he also lost a lot of weight.

The old carpenter walked around the house, showing a satisfied smile: "It's almost finished."

Capping the roof is a big deal. If the roof is not sealed properly, it will easily leak in rainy days.At that time, it will be difficult to renovate.

For other tasks, Lin Shen can do it alone, but for the capped tasks, he can't do it alone, so he has to ask for help. ]

He went to invite Lin Bing and Lin He first.

Lin Bing said that he is very busy these days and has no time to do white jobs.

Helping his younger brother is called a white worker, and it is impossible for his brother to pay him wages.

Zhou Zichu said: "His brother is not free, I am free. If you want to cap, you will definitely ask someone to help. No matter how many people there are, you will always have to eat. I will cook for you."

Lin Bing glared at him: "I'm not going, and neither are you."

He always felt that Zhou Zichu had something for his third brother.

After the family was separated, he wished to be far away from his third brother, so he deliberately moved to a place far away from his original home.Before he heard that the third brother had left and would never come back in this life, he was really happy for a while.Later, when he heard that the third brother had returned and made a small fortune, he was somewhat disappointed.

Zhou Zichu called Lin Yue into the room and whispered, "No matter how bad he is, he is your own brother. He has no house to live in, so you can't just watch him die outside. To put it bluntly, if he doesn't live Come on, if you stay at our house and don't leave, can you still drive us out?"

Lin Bing thought about it, and it was indeed so.If my brother builds a house, if he does not help at all, the villagers will say that he is heartless.

"You can go, but keep a distance from him. He has a bad reputation. If you get close to him, people in the village will gossip." Lin Bing said.

Zhou Zichu agreed, but he didn't know what was going on in his heart.

Lin Shen went to Lin He's house.

Lin He hasn't come back yet, only Zhang Xiaoke and the child are at home.

The child was a little timid, hiding behind Zhang Xiaoke, looking at him timidly.

Until Lin Shen took out a piece of osmanthus candy.

The child swallowed and looked at Zhang Xiaoke pitifully.

Zhang Xiaoke dragged the child to prevent him from passing, acting on guard as if Lin Shen was a hungry wolf.

Lin Shen had no choice but to put the sugar on the table, and consciously stood a little further away from the table.

"I bought it from Daji. It's sweet for my children."

Zhang Xiaoke looked at him coldly.

"I'll wait for my second brother to come back."

It was too uncomfortable to stay in the house, so Lin Shen fled outside and stood in the yard waiting for Lin He.

After a long time, Lin He returned home exhausted.

Lin Shen expressed his intention to come, thinking that Lin He would also refuse, but unexpectedly Lin Shen readily agreed.

On the way back, Lin Shen was still puzzled.

Wang Xiaoke was also puzzled: "I thought you wouldn't go."

"I don't want to go either, who told me to owe him..." Lin He said vaguely.

Zhou Zichu was in charge of cooking. His cooking skills were so-so, and the food he made could barely fit in his mouth.But everyone was very tired, and they devoured the food, and no one was in the mood to taste it carefully.

In addition to Lin He and Lin Bing, Lin Shen also invited two neighbors to help.

By sunset, the roof was barely closed.After a few days of busy work, the house will be built.

Afterwards, Lin Shen gave some meat to every family he helped, as a token of his affection.

The old carpenter came into contact with another small job, so he naturally brought Lin Shen along.The house hasn't dried yet, so it's good to take this opportunity to go out and dry it up.Thinking of this, Lin Shen happily followed the old carpenter.

This time there was no carriage to pick them up, they had to walk over by themselves.

When we arrived at the place, the old carpenter told Lin Shen: "This job was introduced by the housekeeper of the Jiang family, and they are somewhat related to the Jiang family. Originally, they were going to pick us up in a carriage. I think it's not far away, so it's better to walk over there." gone."

Lin Shen didn't speak.

The old carpenter glanced at his face and knew what he was thinking.

"You think that if there is a carriage and I don't take it, I have to go by myself to make mistakes, right?"

Lin Shen shook his head: "I didn't say that."

"You didn't say that, but you think so in your heart. How old am I, do you think you can fool me? I can tell what you are thinking at a glance. Although they are all surnamed Jiang, this family's surname is Jiang The one in front is different from the previous one. The one in front is a kind family. The housekeeper treats people politely, and everyone is friendly. But this one surnamed Jiang is different. The money is not as rich as the previous one, and the host is not so generous."

"Whether you want a horse-drawn carriage to pick you up is to be polite. If you let them pick you up, you will pay less. If you don't let them pick you up, you will be paid a lot more. There are not so many jobs now, so we can earn a little. That's right. If I was young, I wouldn't look down on such a job." said the old carpenter.

After all, the old carpenter felt that he was old and wanted to work more and earn more money when he was able to move.Although the apprentice can give him a pension, he can't have no money in his hand.Besides, it was time for Lin Shen to spend money, and it was time to buy land after building the house.He heard from Lin Shen that the family will have more things to support in the future, and there will be more places to spend money.

Lin Shen knocked on the door a few times, and after a long time a servant came and led them into the backyard.

"They are here." Xiaotao told Jiang Daizhen the new news.

Jiang Daizhen couldn't sit still immediately, and found an excuse to go to the backyard.

Jiang Yin is a fat man, too fat to walk.

Jiang Yin's Ah Mo kept giving him winks, and he stood up reluctantly: "I, I'll go with Zhenzhen."

He didn't want to go, he was reluctant to eat at the same table.

"What's the fun in the backyard? There are a lot of sundries piled up in a few dilapidated houses, and the people who live in it are the low class people in the house." Jiang Yin was as strong as a mountain, and it could crush two camels when it fell down.He took a step and took a step, and there were servants on the left and right to support him.Looking at the two servants again, beads of sweat dripped from their foreheads.

Seeing him working so hard, Jiang Daizhen said considerately: "If the eldest cousin is too tired, sit here and rest before leaving. Xiaotao and I will take a step first."

Jiang Yin glanced back quickly, and found that his grandmother didn't catch up and stare at him. He heaved a sigh of relief and sat down on a rock.

"The scenery here is nice, I'll come after a while to enjoy it."

If he can't go any further, he will die.

Xiao Tao covered her mouth and snickered: "Brother, why is your eldest cousin getting fatter?"

Jiang Daizhen also laughed: "He can't control his mouth, and he stays at home every day and doesn't go out. It's strange that he isn't fat. When he was a child, he was fat. When he grew up, his family didn't care about him, so he became fatter and fatter. "
