The next day, Shen Ruolan's family took down the house, that is to say, the two old houses they lived in now, and moved to a new house.
The new house has been built for three months and has been left to dry. Now it has dried and there is no moisture inside the walls, so people can live in it.
The old house of Shen Ruolan's family is easy to pick up, there are only two small thatched huts, and it can be finished in a short time. Because there is not much work, Shen Ruolan didn't find many people to help, so she asked Dachun and Daqing. The two fathers, as well as the elder brother Gui Shengzi, are here.
Originally, she wanted to find the uncle, but when she was packing and packing last night, she suddenly heard the crying of the aunt from the uncle's house. Shen Ruolan thought that the uncle and the aunt had fought, so she didn't dare to come to look for it, so as not to be embarrassed.
Early in the morning, as soon as Shen Ruolan and others got up, these people arrived. They carried pickaxes, sledgehammers, etc. Aunt Xie brought Qiuping's sister-in-law, Guishengzi's sister-in-law and Dachun's sister-in-law to help Shen Ruolan clean up. Things are pouring into the new house.
After the tossing, the men began to roll up their arms and sleeves to pick up the house. Halfway through the work, Qi Laishuner and Shen Xiuying came uninvited and joined the work team.
Although Shen Ruolan didn't want to see them, she didn't stretch out her hands to slap the smiling faces. If they came to help with work, she couldn't drive them out with a cold face.
Had to acquiesce in their existence!
The Shen Ruolan family's new house is spacious and grand, with four rooms in the front and back, and two wing rooms in the east and west. The brick toilet, the brick courtyard wall, and the gate building are built like a rich man's mansion. Stone lion!
Shen Ruolan left the second room in the east to her parents, the room next to her parents to Zhu'er, the third room is the main room, used for entertaining guests and meals, and the fourth room is not occupied. It's her and Ju'er.
Arrange Sister Shouya and Grandma Dong'er to live in Yijin. Grandma Dong wears Dong'er to live in the east room, Sister Shouya lives in the west room, and leave a room for Zhaodi, Daidi and Lingdi. The big house is spacious and bright. , The style is extraordinary, and the three of them are very happy.
Everyone said that the three of them were a blessing in disguise. They used to live such a miserable life, but now with the support of Lanya, they have reached the sky step by step. Not only do they eat good food every day, but they can also live in such a spacious house. The big house, even those of them who have worked all their lives, have not been able to live in such a house!
Shouya and Grandma Dong were all satisfied, needless to say how grateful they were to Shen Ruolan!
When Shen Xiuying saw Shen Ruolan's house, she was even more determined to rebuild with the second room!
A few men outside tore down the old house in a short time. Brother Daqing borrowed an ox cart from the old man's house, loaded the construction waste from the old house on the cart, and pulled it to the road outside to fill the road. The straw that was pulled out was rotten, and it would smell musty when burned, so it was thrown on the dung pile in the north to retting the dung.
The girders, doors, windows, and rafters of the old house were all placed in the east wing by several men to prevent them from being rotten in the rain.
In fact, in Shen Ruolan's eyes, those girders, rafters, doors and windows can only be used as fire, but the farmers live carefully and keep everything that can be used. Mrs. Xie insisted on telling her to throw it away or keep it. I had no choice but to stay.
However, it's useless even if she keeps them, she won't use these things anyway, so she just keeps them for others to use in the future.
The men here haven't finished their work yet, Shen Ruolan and the others have already tidied up the new house and cleaned it up, so they brought the aunts and sister-in-laws to start preparing lunch.
Before working, Aunt Xie and the others solemnly declared to Shen Ruolan that they are here to help Shen Ruolan with work, and they don't need wages.
Da Qing'er worked at Shen Ruolan's house for several months this spring and earned a few taels of silver. Now the family is very generous, and the whole family seems to be grateful to Shen Ruolan. Today, she is tearing down the house. How could he take her wages for such a small job
Shen Ruolan also took care of Dachun'er's business, and Dachun's daughter-in-law had a good relationship with Shen Ruolan, so naturally she wouldn't ask for her wages for such a small job.
Gui Shengzi also made money from Shen Ruolan. Although he didn't earn as much as Daqing and Dachun'er, he participated in whether Shen Ruolan's family built a house or opened up wasteland. It's six catties, and I have received so much favor from Lan Ya, so of course I won't ask for her wages.
Everyone came to help her with sincerity, and it could be regarded as repaying her for taking care of them.
Shen Ruolan saw that everyone didn't want wages, so she offered to provide meals. This time, Mrs. Xie didn't cheat on her, and readily agreed. So after tidying up the new house, everyone started busy cooking.
There are still a lot of wild boars hunted yesterday, there are various vegetables in the front garden, and there are a lot of goose eggs at home, so it is still very easy to prepare a decent lunch.
Shen Ruolan fished out a large piece of wild boar from the tank, took out a dozen eggs, and picked some green vegetables such as persimmons, cucumbers, eggplants, and beans in the front garden, and made seven or eight vegetables together. Good food, hard food!
The division of labor was in full swing when the uncle came suddenly.
Shen Debao came to talk to Shen Ruolan about something, he didn't expect to see the old house of the second room being scrapped as soon as he came, and several village neighbors are laying green bricks on the site of the old house right now.
When Shen Debao saw it, he couldn't take care of his own business anymore, so he hurried over and everyone started working together.
While working, the men kept praising Shen Ruolan, which made Shen Debao feel sore.
The same old daughter of the Shen family, Mei Er raised her more carefully than Lan Er since childhood, but now the two sisters live very different lives, there is no comparison at all, hey!
After finishing work, Shen Debao called Shen Ruolan to the west wing while everyone was washing their hands and preparing to eat, and hesitantly asked her if she knew the town's Butou Lei well, and if she could talk to Butou Lei in front of him.
As soon as Shen Ruolan heard the old man's words, she knew something was wrong, but it was probably related to Shen Ruomei.
She didn't want to help Shen Ruomei, but she didn't want to disappoint the uncle, so she said to the uncle, "I have only met Lei Butou three times, and I am not familiar with him. Although he helped me before, it was because I was reasonable. Or it is also because I have honored his silver."
When Uncle Shen heard that Shen Ruolan had no friendship with Butou Lei, he felt quite disappointed, but when he heard that he could do things with money, he felt hopeful in his heart. "Then, how much money does it cost to ask him to do something?"
