Upper beam means that the highest beam on the roof is about to be installed, which means that the house is about to be completed.
I have to say that the Erfang family are all doing practical things. After making up their minds, they will do what they say. No, it's only a short dozen days, and they are about to be put on the beam.
Feeling Feng's joy, Lin Fufu was also very happy. Remembering that Feng had mentioned her natal elder brother specially, he also praised: "It's really thanks to my uncle's hard work. When he is on the beam, I have to ask him to drink more. It takes a few glasses of wine."
Lin Fufu's words reached Feng's heart, she patted the back of Lin Fufu's hand happily, and then chattered: "Ah Fen's uncle helped find a bricklayer, my younger uncle helped find a carpenter, that old carpenter It's also very good, most people can't invite them, that is, when her uncle A Fen was warm-hearted when she was young, she helped the old carpenter with a lot of farm work when she was learning crafts from the bamboo craftsman next door to the old carpenter. Some incense."
Lin Fufu praised a few more words, and Feng was even happier.
But Lin Fufu was thinking in his heart, hearing Feng's tone, her natal family was still warm-hearted and reliable, and such a family could make more friends.
Feng's voice changed, he looked at Lin Fufu eagerly, and said gratefully: "Speaking of which, what we are most grateful for is the Gospel, both Grandpa Afen and Grandma told Afen and Afang to remember the Gospel. "
Lin Fufu pursed his lips and smiled, "They are all my sisters, so don't talk about this heresy."
In my heart, I feel that Feng's family education is really good.
It's normal when you think about it, Feng Shi has been suffering in the old Lin family's house for more than ten years, and the gossip women in Hulu Village didn't say anything bad about Feng Shi, so they knew that Feng Shi was very good at life.
"Hey, our family started this house poor and poor, but our family, A Fen and A Fang, said that if we want to do it, we should do it well." Feng told Lin Fufu proudly.
Lin Fufu nodded, "Sister A Fen and Sister A Fang are both good and capable!"
Seeing that Lin Fufu spoke so highly of his two daughters, Feng's expression changed from his previous sad face, and he smiled so hard that he couldn't see his teeth. Bricklayers and small workers are enough, otherwise the house will not rise so quickly."
Lin Fufu looked at the two sisters A Fen and A Fang even more highly. In fact, her idea was that things that can be solved with money are nothing to worry about.
Following Feng's to Erfang's newly built house, Lin Fufu saw that the main body of the house made of three rows of blue bricks was almost ready, and sure enough, the beams could be erected in a few days.
These three rows of green brick houses are one-fourth smaller than Lin Fufu's house, and the front yard is also smaller, but the back yard is one-third larger.
This was specifically requested by Feng. The small front yard is not enough, but the back yard can have a few more vegetable plots.
"The house is very grand and very nice." Lin Fufu said with a smile, and was also happy for the A Fen sisters and Feng Shi.
Feng sighed, thinking it was a blessing to have received the Gospel, otherwise the whole family would still have to squeeze into the dilapidated woodshed.
But thinking about the beautiful days ahead, I am happy again.
At this time, Lin Dahe, who was working as a small worker, came out carrying two mud barrels. Seeing Feng Shi coming with Lin Fufu, he grinned and greeted Lin Fufu.
Before the new house was built, Lin Dahe still felt a little resentful towards Lin Fufu, and sometimes he whispered to Fengshi when he was lying in bed at night.
On the contrary, every time he was scolded by Feng Shi, scolding him for not being a man, not to mention making wives and daughters suffer, I don't know what to do...
Lin Dahe lost his temper after being scolded, but he still had a little resentment in his heart.
But since Lin Fufu sold the foundation of the house to him at a low price, as the house grew higher and higher, the little resentment towards Lin Fufu in his heart gradually disappeared.
"The good news is here. We haven't visited you these few days. Are Xiaobao and Xiaobei okay?" Lin Dahe asked the two young ones deliberately.
Lin Fufu knew what he meant, but it was patriarchal, and the main thing was Xiaobao who asked. Er Bolin Dahe really cared about this little brother in the family.
There is nothing to say about this. In the feudal society, especially Lin Dahe, who did not have a boy, naturally he cared more about the boy of his younger brother's family.
"Both Xiaobao and Xiaobei are fine. They can eat and sleep." Lin Fufu replied, not wanting to waste time on this question, and asked, "When will the second uncle's house be able to be erected?"
Mentioning this, Lin Dahe became even happier, with a smile on his maroon face, "We have to wait for Grandpa Afen to help us calculate this auspicious day. If there is an auspicious day in the near future, then that day will be on the beam."
Lin Fufu nodded.
Even if it is a modern general building, it will be a good day to find a gentleman when it is capped, let alone an ancient one.
But Lin Dahe mentioned that the father-in-law counted the days, and he seemed to be very convinced of Feng's family, otherwise, the old man of the Lin family's old house should ask someone to count the day of raising the beam.
After Lin Fufu found out, he wanted to leave.
"Gospel." Lin Dahe stopped her, "Your second aunt and I packed up those broad beans for you, and I haven't sent them to you these days because of my busy schedule. I'll send them to you later today. past."
Lin Fufu smiled and said yes.
Feng Shi looked at her but hesitated to speak.
"Is the second aunt okay?" Lin Fufu was puzzled in his heart, but his face didn't show it.
Feng laughed and said: "Your father doesn't know why he planted so many broad beans. Although some land is barren, broad beans are willing to grow, but how many big cloth bags have been harvested? Your second uncle weighed it and said It weighs more than three hundred catties."
Lin Fufu thought to himself that the harvest of those few acres of land was only more than three hundred catties, which is really not much. However, from memory, she knew that her mother, Chu family, liked to eat fresh broad beans. Presumably, her father saw that her mother liked to eat them, so he simply planted broad beans on the few acres of dry land outside.
Among other things, my father is really good to my mother.
Seeing the corner of Lin Fufu's mouth smiling, Feng felt puzzled, paused, and said, "We'll dry the old broad beans for you, but dried broad beans are sold as seeds in general grocery stores. Someone has collected a lot, what are you going to do?"
That's a problem.
Broad beans are not a high-yielding and marketable crop in the first place, so it is natural that no one harvests them.
"Let me put it aside for now." Lin Fufu hadn't figured out what to do with the broad beans yet.
"If you sell it, you won't be able to sell it at a high price. It's really difficult." Lin Dahe also became worried for Lin Fufu.
Lin Fufu comforted the two of them, and then turned back to his home.
As soon as he entered the kitchen, he saw Lao Liu anxiously walking around in the kitchen. Lin Fufu was surprised.
Looking at the pot table, the big white porcelain urn and the jars for side dishes were washed clean, and that was the one who came over.
Normally, the sixth child would never show up at this time, which one was made
