Stingy Husband Farming
Chapter 17 The Anxious Old Shen 2
"If you refuse again, our mothers really dare not ask you for help."
The men looked at each other a few times, and seeing Mrs. Liu's firm attitude, they knew that they couldn't refuse, so they agreed, and made an appointment to start work the next morning.It's just that, since Shen Mu's family wants to pay for food, they didn't bring their sons here - they built a house in total, and more than a dozen people came, those who didn't know thought they were here for food.What's more, there are too many people, just Shen Mu and Liu Shi are too busy to cook.
They agreed to help eight people, including the village chief Shen Qingshan, all of whom were old-fashioned people who worked quickly and did not slack off, and had rich experience in building houses.At this time, they were idle and idle, so a few people ran to the homestead to dig out the large stones and the like first. The ground was tidied up and leveled, so it was convenient to start work the next day.
A few more people agreed to go to the river to dig some clay together later.
Shen Mu and Liu Shi are also packing up some belongings at home, and put them in the new house for Song Bai to use, so there is no need to spend money to buy new ones.This money, if you can save a penny, it is a penny.
Although people in the village thought that his family was rich and even the old house was jealous, but in fact it was just a glamorous face.The house of Shen Mu's house is really exquisitely built, all of which are made of blue bricks, even the firewood room and the kitchen: there are three main rooms, Boss Shen and Mrs. Liu live in the east room, and Shen Mu lives in the west room.The kitchen is next to the east room, and the toilet is at the back of the house.There are two connected wing rooms on the east side of the front yard, one big and one small, the big one is for grain and the small one is for firewood.The land to the west was vacant, just across the wall from the new house to be built for Song Bai.
The roofs are all made of tiles.Although they used cheap red tiles, or low-grade red tiles with uneven firing, the villagers used mats and straw felt for their roofs.
Before laying the tiles, Mrs. Liu had ingenuity, and deliberately sorted and arranged the tiles that were fired unevenly and had different shades of color. , very beautiful.
However, the things used at home are indeed more exquisite than ordinary farmhouses.Boss Shen and his wife are both educated people, their aesthetic awareness is higher than that of ordinary villagers, and they are very interested in life, unlike the things of ordinary people in the village, they can be used as long as they can be used.In the eyes of other people in the village, this is a symbol of wealth and nobility in the family.
Shen Mu had a good plan.If the old house really bullied the door, and his marriage with Song Bai was exposed, he would use the newly built adobe house outside to store firewood, and the larger brick wing room in his yard would be empty. Come out to live for Song Bai, and the hut is used to store grain.
If there is no trouble, three years later, the west courtyard wall will be demolished and re-enclosed, and the adobe house will also be enclosed in the courtyard.
The population of the family can't be said...it will increase, and it is always better to have a bigger yard.
Shen Mu blushed again for his own thoughts.In a hurry, he packed the basket and went to the town.
Their family has to take care of the meals for the people who come to build the house. According to the rules of the village, the meal at noon must be meaty.Shen Mu then went to the town to cut some meat and come back.
It doesn't need to be too much, it is enough for seven or eight people to cut a catty of meat.This is often the case in the village. Cut the meat into two-finger-wide thin slices, stew it with cabbage and sweet potatoes in a big pot, and serve it with two thick steamed buns is a good meal.
In the morning of the second day, as expected, seven or eight men came as promised, and some of them were carrying mud, and some of them were cutting straw.Mrs. Liu also boiled a large pot of brown rice porridge at home early, served it with a plate of sesame oil mixed with pickled radish, and started working after eating it hot.
The dried straw is cut into half a foot length with a guillotine, put in the mud, and then expanded into a rectangular shape with a wooden frame, which is the grass-mud brick.The walls of houses built with grass mud bricks are not easy to crack, and they can be lived in for a long time. The mud embryo houses of farmers are all built in this way.
There was a clear division of labor among the people. Half of the people dug the foundation, and the other half worked the mud bricks. After the foundation was dug, the mud bricks were dug a lot and half-dried in the sun. The stickiness was just right, so they could be built.
Two other people went to the mountain to cut trees, dragged the wood back and prepared to install the beams, nail the doors and windows, and the big guys were working hard.
Shen Muze and Liu Shi weaved straw mats in their yard.A thick and dense straw mat is woven together with reeds and thatch, and then a foot-thick thatch is spread on top of it, which is a roof that can prevent wind and cold. Moisture-proof is no worse than tile-roofed houses.It's just that the thatch is fragile and needs to be repaired frequently every year. It's not as good as the tiles, which won't break after ten years of living.
Seven or eight strong men came to do work and build a new house, and there was a lot of movement.Although Shen Mu and their mother and son did not show up, because the house was built on his homestead, the villagers all acquiesced that the house was built by his family.Many people were curious for a while: Boss Shen just passed away, why is this family still in the mood to build a new house?
The people in the village talked and discussed, but they didn't come to any conclusions, but this matter was publicized.
As for Shen Er, of course he also knew the news.
There is no impenetrable wall in the world, and besides, there is no need to hide it from others when building a house. The Shen family's old house immediately knew the news.
Second Shen couldn't sit still.
However, the day before, old man Shen went to Shen Mu's house early in the morning to ask for money, and second son Shen was full of joy, waiting for old man Shen to pull the money out of Shen Mu's hands so that he could redeem his precious son Come.
In the end, after waiting and waiting, the old man Shen came back, but he didn't get a penny back.Also, her attitude changed drastically, and her words actually showed a little bit of defense towards Shen Mu.
Shen's second son was stunned, not knowing what ecstasy soup Shen Mu had poured into his father.But what he knew was that if the old man Shen was fascinated, the 30 taels of silver would be ruined. Then his son... no, let alone his son, he himself might not be able to escape the hands of the gambling house!
Shen Lao Er was so anxious that he was like an ant on a hot pot.
The dog jumped over the wall in a hurry.Feeling anxious, Shen Laoer gritted his teeth, you all forced me to do this!If you don't give me a way out, don't think about it!
It's not that Shen Lao Er didn't hear the rumors in the village.At first he was very angry, thinking that the villagers' nonsense would tarnish his reputation, but now?Fame is something that can only be taken care of if one is alive. Now that he is going to be forced to death by these people, this is also a way, a way!
Although his father and him are not in the same heart now, things are a bit difficult... But there is still his mother, right?Mrs. Shen has always favored her natal family and asked Wei Shi to ask for it. Mrs. Shen is dead, so it is only natural for Mrs. Shen to handle her grandson's marriage as a grandmother!
It completely ignored the fact that Liu's mother was still there.
Shen Laoer encouraged himself, and then planned Shen Mu's marriage.The rumors have helped him to make good arrangements, as long as he finds a family to marry Shen Mu, tie him up or tie him up, and take him back with raw rice and cooked rice, even Liu Shi can't do anything about it!
Go back on not marrying?Hey, no matter what the reason is, losing your virginity is losing your virginity.No village can tolerate a young brother who has lost his virginity, and what remains is the bad reputation of an unmarried child in the village. Even if the village chief favors them, he will not dare to do so!
At that time, Shen Mu has only two options: one is to live a good life with that person honestly, and the other is to be kicked out of the village, even Shen Tang!
As for him, the instigator, the villagers at most paid attention to it for a period of time.As an uncle, shouldn't he say kiss to his nephew!At worst, their adults left Mrs. Liu in the old house to feed her a lot, and the villagers had to say "benevolence and righteousness" to him.
And all the property left by Boss Shen fell into his pocket!
Shen Laoer originally hated Mrs. Liu very much—this woman was just a maid, and she was the lowest, but because she could read a few words and studied for a few years, she always looked at him with high eyes, as if she looked down on him , so that Shen Laoer can't hate him more!But later he also figured it out, it would be easier for his daughter-in-law to leave Mrs. Liu to work, anyway, Mrs. Liu is a maid!Born to serve them!
The second child, Shen Mu, was still secretly complacent in his mind, imagining what a good life he would live after marrying Shen Mu, but word spread in the other village, and Shen Mu's family built a house again.
Second Shen thought that Mrs. Liu and Shen Mu would spend extravagantly to build a house after taking Boss Shen's pension. He was afraid that they would spend all the money and leave him with no money to occupy. Shen Mu quickly get married.It would be better to get more dowry, so that he can pay back the debt quickly, and the big house with blue bricks and red tiles will not need to be sold, and the family can go in and enjoy it.
At this moment, Old Shen and Old Man Shen were separated from each other: at the beginning, Old Shen had no part in building the old house with blue bricks, but now Old Shen turned his back on Shen Mu and refused to give him a way out.If you are unkind as a father, don't blame your unrighteousness as a son.The blue brick house left by Boss Shen is naturally the family's residence, and the two elders guard the old house's blue brick house, waiting for Shen Mu to honor you!
Shen Lao Er thought viciously.
Without further ado, Shen Laoer quickly contacted some "friends" in his town to help Shen Mu find out about them.
To say that his friends were originally idlers from the nearby villages and towns, who gambled and gambled together to fool around.To put it bluntly, they are just some wine and meat friends, how can there be any real affection.After something happened to Shen Laoer and he got into trouble with the gambling house and Yamen, they were all afraid to avoid it, because they were afraid that Shen Laoer would ask them to borrow money.
It took a lot of effort for Shen Lao Er to contact them again, and he promised a lot of benefits. Only a few local snakes who were dawdling in the town were willing to help and find out people for him.
On the other end, he asked Webster to go to Mrs. Shen and cry and beg.Mrs. Shen has always valued her natal family the most. If Wei Shi's niece goes, things will be much easier.
