Although the house was bought, after all, it took a lot of work to clean up the place where no one lived for a few years.
Now is the busy time of farming. The villagers of Wuliqiao are working in the fields by the river. When they see a few people in the distance enter the Qin family's house, which has been abandoned for nearly three years, all of them are a little puzzled. : "The Qin family's house has been empty for so many years, how come there are still people going there?" Although he was very puzzled, he didn't dare to go and find out.
Young Jin brought Young Pearl and Young Treasure over to clean up today. Before he came, he also went to the paper shop to buy a basket of incense candles and paper money.
Arriving at the door of Qin's house, You Jin and his two younger sisters squatted down and burned incense, and then burned a basket of paper money, while burning and muttering: "Miss Qin, I heard from someone else that you murdered an adulterer by hand. I deeply admire the deeds of my family. Our family has only left the fire pit now, and we have no money to occupy your place. Please don’t bother with us, and I don’t know if anyone has burned paper money for you, and I don’t know. Can you receive this paper money, I hope you can be born to a good family as soon as possible, even if the adulterer dies, it will definitely not have a good end... "
Youzhu and Youbao listened to the elder sister while burning paper money. They didn't know why, but they just did their own thing obediently.
After burning the paper money, Youjin started to clean up the weeds in the yard with Youzhu and Youbao. All the weeds were cut off and piled outside. The three sisters cleaned up the weeds in the front yard for a whole morning.
Young Zhu, who was slumped under the eaves, panted heavily: "Third sister, no, eldest sister, when will the three of us pack up!" Since the family's surname was changed from Yue to Su, You Jin has The ranking of the family was twisted again, and she changed from the third sister to the eldest sister.
You Jin also overestimated his speed, and the main room, the east and west wing rooms, and the kitchen are all work! Exhausted, she shook her head: "If it were just the three of us, it would probably take a day to clean up. I'll go to the village tomorrow to get acquainted, and by the way, I'll find a few capable aunts in the village to help. !"
The three sisters kept busy until the afternoon, and then returned to the city exhausted. After the three of them left, the breeze gently brushed the paper money that had been burned and extinguished. The coolness of the air gradually disappeared.

Early the next morning, Young Jin went out with Young Pearl and Young Treasure again early. Today, the three first went to the street to buy half a basket of eggs, and then got on the ox cart and headed to Wuli Bridge.
Entering Wuliqiao Village, and finding out where Lizheng's home is, Youjin took Youzhu and Youbao to find Lizheng's home.
Wuliqiao Village has only been established for more than 30 years. The village is full of miscellaneous surnames. Unlike Cuifeng Village, almost all people belong to the Yue clan. Therefore, Lizheng's status in the village is still very high. The real name of Wuliqiao is He Hao, a standard country man in his early forties with a black and red complexion. He Hao was a little shocked when she heard that it was the family who bought the Qin family's house: "Are you deceived by the people from Yaxing? You must know that the Qin family is... "
Youjin shook his head slightly: "I know all about it, but it's just the first house. Besides, if Miss Qin has a spirit in heaven, she will not embarrass our family of orphans and widows."
Seeing her say this, He Hao didn't say much, and instead asked, "Then what is it that you came here today? But what do you need me to help with?" He Hao also felt that it was not easy for a family to be orphans and widows. In addition to the friendly nature of the villagers, he naturally felt that he could help if he could.
You Jin was always asking for something, and seeing what he said, he naturally followed the stick and said, "I have come here today to ask for something, our family is sick, and the house is empty. After all these years, it is indeed difficult to clean up. I wonder if Lizheng can help find five or six uncles and aunts in the village to help. Although our family has no money, we don’t want everyone to do it for nothing and give us five cents a day. What do you think?"
"It's just cleaning up the house. It can be done with a few people a day. Where do you need money?" He Hao laughed and clapped his hands: "You go first, I'll find some men in the village to help clean up. ." He Hao still felt that the dead house was a little heavy, so he found six or seven teens and 20-year-olds in the village to help clean it up.
With the help of six or seven young men and women, the new home of the Su family was completely different from the one when Young Jin came to see it: the yard full of weeds had been mowed clean, and the yard full of spider webs had already been mowed down. The corners of the bedside room were also swept away, and even the dusty clothes and bedding left by the Qin family were all swept out and set on fire.
According to the previously agreed five cents, one person gave Lizheng forty cents before sending them away to help. Looking at the greatly changed house, Young Jin sat on his waist with satisfaction, and was extremely happy: "We can move in tomorrow!"
"But eldest sister, there's nothing at home, not even bedding, pots and pans!" Young Zhu on the side poured cold water on her fiercely: "Not even firewood!"
"Cough," You Jin coughed awkwardly: "I will buy everything tomorrow morning, and then our family will move directly in the afternoon, and we will cross the Wuli Bridge tomorrow night!" After closing the courtyard door, He happily took the young beads and young treasures back to Luohe Prefecture.
At night, Young Jin, Young Yin, and Su's mother and daughter took advantage of the fact that several children had fallen asleep, and then counted their money.
You Jin took out all the money left on his body: "It took seven taels to buy a house, two taels to get a household registration, and another three taels for the miscellaneous expenses in the past two days. I still have about seven taels of silver left. ."
Young Yin also spent some of the money on his body: "In the past two days, my mother spent half a tael of silver on medicine, but I didn't spend much on the other side." The money on Su's and Young Yin's body was not spent much. There are still nearly fifteen taels in total.
"There are still about fifteen taels of silver, and it is estimated that it will cost three to five taels to buy pots, pans, pans, bedding, grains and rice tomorrow, so we still have ten taels of silver in our hands, so we won't be too tight. ." You Jin thought about it, calculated a few points, and felt that it was okay. "Mother, Youyin, let's go to bed early, we have to get up early tomorrow to move!"
In the early morning of the second day, Youjin got up the earliest, and took Youzhu out of the cart store and went to the West Market. The man who drove the bullock cart returned to the cart shop, and then called another bullock cart to come over. Everyone in the Su family boarded the bullock cart with their heavy baggage, left the cart shop where they had stayed for three days, and went to their new home.

After Young Jin bought the house, he had already told Su about the situation of the house, and Su knew the current situation of the family. It was a blessing for them to buy this house for only seven taels. However, she was still thinking about whether it might be a particularly eerie and terrifying house, but when she saw this house, all her doubts and anxiety disappeared: "If it wasn't for a murder case, we would have spent twenty Can't both buy such a good house?"
The driver of the ox cart helped move the things into the yard. After Xiaojin made the money, he all left, leaving only the Su family inside.
Listening to Su's words, You Jincai smiled and said: "This house is still very good, my mother takes Xiaoshi and Kang'er to live in the main room, and we live in the east and west rooms separately, so ten people can live very well. It's comfortable." Although the children of the Su family are still young, they worked together to fetch water from the well on the side of the yard and wiped the kang, tables, chairs and benches in the main room and the east and west wing rooms before putting the bedding and mats on them. Upper bunk.
You Jin arranged the kitchen items one by one, and then went to the firewood stack left by the Qin family in the backyard to bring in a large amount of dry firewood and started to boil water and cook rice, except for the Su family, who was strictly forbidden by Young Jin and her sisters to go out to blow air. In addition, even Xiao Qi, who was in her early two years, staggered behind Young Yin to help. The whole family worked together and methodically as busy as when they were in the Yue family. With a bright smile, everyone is full of confidence and hope for the future.
The village women who started farming and farming on the riverside saw two ox carts pulling people to the gate of Qin's house on the west side of the river, and then a large group of people came down, all of them were a little curious: "What, this new mover People are really not afraid, the old Qin family was so troubled back then, they weren't afraid of being haunted?"
"I don't know, my son went with Li Zheng to help him clean it up that day, saying that the three little girls he saw that day didn't dress like children from rich families, and they probably bought it because they wanted to find a bargain. Have you bought this house?" Another woman in her forties looked at the west side of the river with her arms crossed: "I'm not afraid that the girls from the old Qin family will come back to find them, the little girl is really bold enough!"
In fact, the old Qin family's house has not been seen before. After all, it is more than half cheaper than the market price, and it also brings an acre of land in front of the door. The courageous people think it is quite a good deal. But there have been several groups of people who don't believe in evil, but after seeing the house, all the buyers who originally intended to buy the house fell ill without exception! It was rumored that the Qin family's house was haunted. I thought this house was so abandoned, but I didn't expect that someone who was not afraid of death bought it and lived in it!
"He Sheng's family, do you want to go take a look?" A younger woman asked Lin Shi, who had just spoken. The young man was more daring, but a little eager to try.
The woman called He Sheng's family shook her head: "I don't dare to go to this haunted house, you can go if you like to see the fun!" Lin's is still very superstitious about ghosts and gods. It's been so lively, how can it be good to come back and hit the evil
The Su family on the west side of the river did not know that they had become the Wuliqiao gossip center. Youluo and Yousu lived in the east wing, while the twins, Youyin and Youzhu Youbao, lived in the west wing.
After Lao Qin's family was gone, he left behind a lot of tables, chairs, benches, and cabinets. Young Jin kept them all in order to save money. He asked a few younger sisters to wipe them clean with the scalded sackcloth. It is about to be used, and the new home is almost tidied up inside and out. It can be regarded as a home at the beginning.
