Chapter 55 pt 2 (1/2)
After that, after several days of busy work, Gao Sheng and others were busy delivering vegetables outside while Zhao’er stayed and helped watch the fence and vegetables.
When the fence was set up, the vegetables were almost ready. Because of the lack of manpower, Zhao’er had to personally go work in the past few days, so when Xue TingRang came back from school, he didn’t see Zhao’er at home. He heard Sun shi’s words and then knew Zhao’er was on the mountain.
He put the book bag and the items he brought back into the house, then closed the door and went up the mountain.
Now the top of this small hill has really changed. Facing the fence at the foot of the mountain, Xue TingRang walked in along a gap. Along the way, he saw the slopes were blocked into pieces, and the ridges were neat and tidy. Just from seeing this, he knew that this was a vegetable plot.
Walking along the path all the way in, he heard voices from far away.
Xue TingRang walked further, and saw a few people surrounding the clearing.
Xue Qingbai, Zhou shi, Gao Sheng, Jiang Wu, Zhao’er were all there, and there were also some young children in the village. Everyone looked at the thatched-roofed house with a mud brick wall with smiles.
Zhao’er said: “Shengzi, I didn’t realize that you have such good craftsmanship in building a house. You can build it in one day.”
The house is not big. It only has one room, but it is surprising enough to build the house in one day. First of all, this mud brick is not easy to make. You need to use a good yellow mud to stir the chopped thatch to make the brick. The mud brick has to be dried under the sun. Then, the mud brick is put on top, and the brick is dried. Only after several repetitions can the mud brick be used.
After the glutinous rice paste is used to glue the mud brick wall, you will have to apply a few more layers to make it firm. It is not a problem to live for a few years. Gao Sheng also bought mud brick from the villagers, which is how they could build the house so quickly.
Gao Sheng laughed: “This is because there are many people who are helping. Everyone has helped. Qiangzi, don’t leave at night. I will go to the village to get some vegetables later. Let’s cook a feast here at night.”
An elderly woman next to him said: “This child really wants to do whatever he thinks. There is no fire here, so how can we cook?”
“Mother, don’t worry about this. I bought an iron pot. I will go to the village to get some vegetables later. As for the rice noodles and condiments, I will give some money and have someone do it for me. I will go to town tomorrow and get the pots and pans all set up.”
The thin woman shook her head, but with a smile on her face, she wiped her tears again.
Zhao’er hurriedly persuaded: “Aunt Gao, how sad are you on such a good day? Now that Shengzi has a house, save two years of money and build a big house.
Then find a wife. There will be both a wife and house, so you will have it all. ”
“Okay, Aunt Gao is not sad.” Aunt Gao smiled with tears, wiping them with the corner of her clothes.
At this time, Zhou shi suddenly said: “Ting Zi is back?”
Everyone looked behind and saw a young man slowly approaching not far away.
At the time of the sunset, the sky was full of colorful clouds. The light red light shone on his blue robe, and another breeze blew in. The corners of the robe and sleeves fluttered gently, adding an aura of a fairy. Especially since the young man looks handsome, his eyebrows are full of leisure, and at first glance, everyone can’t help but be stunned.
“Tingzi is growing handsomer and handsomer.” It was Zhou shi’s sigh.
This sigh broke the silence, and Zhao’er took a few steps forward and ran in front of the young man with an annoyed face: “I forgot that you will rest tomorrow. How did you come back?”
“Takin a bullock cart.”
“The bullock cart is slow and bumpy, are you not tired? You should have rested at home for a while. How come you’ve come to the mountain.”
The girl circled around the youth, unable to say that she was caring and considerate, especially the worried look on the girl’s face, which seemed like a little wife worried about her little man.
Jiang Wu’s eyes darkened immediately, and he said: “It’s also my fault. I also forgot about this. I was so busy with your sister, but I should have gone to the town to pick you up.” His voice is high, and his words are a little too intimate, but everyone knew about the friendship between the Xue and Jiang families and didn’t think much about it.
Only Xue TingRang heard the provocation faintly. His eyes sank and looked at Zhao’er with a smile: “Zhao’er, I will tell you a good thing.”
“What good thing?”
“I got into Class A.”
