Zhou Fuxi, who thought it would take a lot of time to find it, ran into it as soon as he arrived here. Wu Qingyuan was in a very good mood. This was a good start. He didn't want to find a place to settle. Liushu Village was very suitable.

The purpose of his passing through is just to live a stable life. So far, Liushu Village has given him a good feeling. He likes it very much. He promised Lin Laogen to help his family Lin Amozhi not to lose his words, so he settled in Liushu. Village.

There is also Brother Zhou. Since he had promised Zhou Daniu to help take care of him, he couldn’t just find it and just leave it alone. Although he was indifferent by nature, he has always been a principled person. From now on, he will be more of a younger brother, yes. It's not bad for him as a lonely person.

From rebirth to the present, after having tossed for so long, I can finally settle down.

The vision of a better life in the future made Wu Qingyuan full of enthusiasm for a while, and the next day he took the initiative to find the old village chief to solve the house's problems. He couldn't stay in the Lin family all the time. These things must be done as soon as possible.

During this time, there was not much work in the fields, and every household was still idle. When he came to the door, the old village chief did not delay, and immediately took him to see the vacant houses in the village.

These are left behind by villagers who moved their household registration to other places to settle down. They are not particularly good houses. Good houses must have been sold early to make money, so how could they be left for nothing.

Therefore, what Wu Qingyuan saw were the most common mud thatched houses in the village. In addition, the house was left unoccupied for a long time, and the house was dilapidated, overgrown with weeds, and rotten.

But fortunately, the ancient people built the house sincerely. Every household built it by themselves, and the materials and craftsmanship were guaranteed. Therefore, these houses looked dilapidated, but they were still solid, and they could live in with a little bit of repair and repair. .

Although Wu Qingyuan was a little unsatisfied, he would have to wait for at least several months to rebuild. At this moment, he could only do it first, and wait for everything to be straightened out before he could build a big house.

The procedures for the house were done quickly, and the next step was the repair work.

There is no special construction team here. Repairing houses and repairing houses are essential skills for men in the village. Wu Qingyuan simply asked Lin Laogen to help, and spent money to ask a few honest villagers to help.

In terms of wages, he is generous. According to the village's rules, the labor of building a house is 30 yuan a day and includes food. What he gives is 40 bags a day.

This is not because he has too much money to spend, but just repairs the house. The time has not been so long to build the house. Everyone pays more and works hard. In fact, he will not spend too much. The money can make a good relationship with the villagers, which is a very cost-effective business.

As Wu Qingyuan expected, the villagers' attitude towards him rose again on the second day after the workers were paid.

The villagers actually had a good impression of him when they recognized their relatives. They were handsome and polite. They seemed to have read books when they spoke. This is very popular among the rough people in the village who don’t know big characters. .

Now that he pays so much money to repair the house, people can guess that he is at least not a bad money, and naturally he is more pleasing to the eye.

It’s not that people think that the poor love the rich and covet something. This is a normal behavior. After all, everyone lives in the village, and all important things are the same. The quality of life.

Especially when I saw Brother Zhou, who was originally suffering, wore new clothes and looked very good, the villagers had a better impression of him. Brother Zhou was very popular in the village and saw that the poor child finally had a good life. , There is a good elder to take care of, except for the original Zhou family, most people in the village are very happy.

The house repairs were going on lively. Wu Qingyuan, Lin Laogen and a few villagers worked together. At noon, Lin Amo and Zhou Geer helped to deliver the food for everyone.

At noon, Lin Amo and Zhou Ge'er came over with food on time.

"Father, Brother Wu, Second Uncle, Uncle Zhang and Uncle Wang, come eat soon..."

"cousin......"

The two teenagers put down their things and greeted them.

Compared with Lin Amo's lively and outgoing character, Zhou Geer hurriedly greeted Wu Qingyuan and hurriedly took a spoon to help everyone with food. He seemed to be a little bit introverted and not good at expressing.

But in fact, Brother Zhou is not introverted. It’s just not as lively as Lin Amo. He is still hot on weekdays. After more than ten years of suffering, he has an extra cousin who takes care of himself overnight. Well done, well dressed, he felt like he was dreaming, and suddenly he was a little uncomfortable.

Wu Qingyuan didn't take his embarrassment to heart. His life changed all at once, and it was normal for Brother Zhou to be uncomfortable. It would be nice to get acquainted with him after a while.

After working all morning, everyone was tired and hungry. The food he prepared was also very good. One meat and one vegetarian food plus a good meal was much better than other meals with only vegetarian dishes. Everyone ate very fragrantly.

Now the weather is very hot. After eating, Wu Qingyuan didn't let everyone continue to work. He sat in the shade of the trees to rest and chat. This didn't delay much. The villagers who came to help worked fast, not short of time for rest.

The topic of chatting with people in the village is actually very scarce. It is not this year's field harvest or gossip about who is wrong in the village. Ordinary things are like rocks in the mountains, and they will not change for a lifetime.

But the ordinary also has ordinary fun. Only those who have really experienced the pain and despair of the wind and waves will realize how rare the ordinary is.

However, Wu Qingyuan likes this kind of plain warmth very much. His biggest wish now is to settle down as soon as possible, and then find someone he likes to live his life.

Drinking mung bean soup to cool off the heat and chatting with a few villagers, Wu Qingyuan was still very satisfied except that the weather was too hot and there was no air conditioning, and he sighed that the standard of living was relatively backward in ancient times.

"Brother Wu, it's not too hot now, and it will be the hottest in a few days. Actually, it's not bad. Take a bath with cold water and eat a few watermelons. It's just sad in winter. It's snowing. It's useless to hide in the house and put on the duvet cover..."

Hearing that it was too hot, Lin Amo, who was sitting next to him, laughed and talked while handing him a bowl of mung bean soup.

"Brother Lin is right. I hate winter the most. It's so cold that I don't want to go out. And the firewood is too expensive. My wife says every year that I don't even make money for burning charcoal, eh."

"Yes, yes, yes, my daughter-in-law said the same to me, but the better carbon costs more than ten liters per catty, and it's almost like eating meat. Who can afford to burn every day..."

Everyone next to him followed and sighed.

Wu Qingyuan's action of drinking soup suddenly stopped, and raised his head, "A catty of carbon costs more than ten words?"

In the past few days, he went to buy materials to repair the house and gained a better understanding of the prices here. One catty of carbon is only a catty, and pork is only more than twenty cents a catty. The usual vegetables are cheaper. Why is carbon so expensive?

"A dozen or so essays are better, and some are cheap. A few liters cost a catty, but cheap and smoky."

Everyone knows that he didn't know it was normal when he first came here, so explain patiently.

"I see."

Wu Qingyuan was relieved of the bowl, and his heart wandered.

There is also a kind village man reminding, "By the way, Brother Wu, I saw that the Kang in your house is broken just now. You can buy the materials tomorrow, and you have to fix them together. Otherwise, you won’t be able to get through the winter. You don’t need the Kang. It will cost at least five or six ounces of silver to burn this carbon in the open for a winter..."

"Thank you, brother, I will buy it tomorrow, but I don't know how to repair the kang, do you know anyone?" Wu Qingyuan nodded.

"Brother Wu, you don't need to find someone else, Brother Dazhu will do it. He is the one who can repair the Kangs in our village the best!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Lin Amo took over the conversation, pursed his lips and pointed at the sturdy, bull-like Zhang Dazhu facing the other side.

Originally, Lin Laogen did not intend to ask him to help Wu Qingyuan. Although Wu Qingyuan paid forty wen a day, Zhang Dazhu did a part-time job at the landlord’s house in the neighboring village, and his wage was 50 ren a day, which was unreasonable. Let people suffer.

But who knew that Zhang Dazhu ran over by himself on the day the work started. He didn't say anything. He picked up the tools and started to work. Wu Qingyuan gave him money and he didn't want him, so he just wanted to help the white workers.

What is the reason for this? Everyone knows that when he eats at noon every day, it is so obvious that he keeps his eyes fixed on Brother Zhou and doesn't move a bit!

At this moment, I heard Lin Amo take the conversation to himself and winked at himself, Zhang Dazhu reacted, and stammered his head and answered, "Yeah, I can repair it! Cousin, I will help you repair the bed tomorrow.. ...."

As soon as he finished speaking, all the people present laughed hahaha. This Zhang Dazhu really had a nerve in his head. Before he married his younger brother, he called his cousin directly.

Brother Zhou also gave him an annoyed look, and then hid his face behind his friend in embarrassment, and secretly said a silly cow!

"That's all right, Brother Dazhu, thank you, Axi, let Brother Dazhu have a bowl of mung bean soup..."

Wu Qingyuan couldn't help but nodded, and then motioned to Zhou Ge'er to serve another bowl of soup. Axi is Zhou Ge'er's nickname.

Brother Zhou could not refuse, nodded cautiously, and then obediently carried the soup.

But Zhang Dazhu's eyes became even more obsessed when he saw Brother Zhou walking in front of him.

Although the parents' order of the matchmaker is emphasized here, it is not impossible to love freely. Besides, the villagers know about Zhang Tiezhu and Zhou Ge'er.

Lin Amo snickered while covering his mouth, while Lin Laogen banged on his head with a smile and worry, and whispered, "It's just you who are troublesome, and you have learned how to pull the red line, it's a shame!"

Suddenly received a knock, Lin Amo rubbed his forehead aggrievedly. Seeing that his father wanted to make a long story, his eyes rolled and he hurriedly filled the empty bowl in his hand with soup, and ran to Wu Qingyuan. .

"Brother Wu, I have boiled this mung bean all morning, but it tastes good. I'll give you another bowl. Drink more when it's hot."

While talking, he stuffed the bowl into Wu Qingyuan's hand, then adjusted its position and hid to Wu Qingyuan's side.

Looking back to see Lin Laogen could only shut his mouth halfway, his little face smiled cheerfully and slyly.

"..."

Wu Qingyuan just happened to see it when he lowered his head.

Although the green spots on the boy's face were still ugly, the cheerful smile made his long silent heart tremble, and he couldn't help but straighten his back to cover him.
