The Life Through Books of the Salted Fish Family

Chapter 430 Life is tight (ask for a monthly ticket!)

After returning home, Yan Yu first went to see Master Lu.

After the Qi family's house was built, the Hu family invited Master Lu's family.

The Hu family used to have four adobe houses. As the Hu family's wealth grew, Hu Da became a small flag. In the words of Uncle Hu, he was as big as an official, and the old man gradually became dissatisfied with his house.

After the two in-laws from Da'an Village came here, Uncle Hu found his adobe house more and more distasteful. After the family discussed it, they decided to build another house.

In the names of Hu Da and Hu Er, two more homesteads were occupied.

Lift the lid at the same time.

There are six brick, stone and tile houses, a large yard, a fire wall, a large kang in every room, stone slabs on the floor, plaster on the walls, cesspit, and pigsty...

In short, all standards are on par with the Yan family.

Uncle Hu and his wife, together with their unmarried old daughter Hu Xiaomei, Hu Da and Hu Er, and the family's three grandchildren, Da Lang, Er Lang and Xiao Ni, originally had four rooms enough to live in.

When the two in-laws from Da'an Village, Hu Da's daughter-in-law's natal family, and Hu Da's sister-in-law's family came, the room couldn't be said to be crowded, and it was almost impossible to fit.

They were all real relatives, and they rushed to Lao Hu's house. Uncle Hu is a good-looking man. It's not good to be thin on one side and thicker on the other.

Fortunately, the kang pan was big at the beginning, and they slept horizontally and vertically, so they finally accommodated the two in-laws.

But the fact of building a house can't wait until the spring of next year, it is imminent!

Invite Master Lu to make a plan, and it is enough to calculate the family's money.

Nothing to say, Guy!

Uncle Hu was thinking privately that after the two new houses were built, one would be given to the eldest son, and the eldest daughter-in-law's family would also live there first.

One is for the second family. The old couple brought their old daughter to follow. The second child has a bad temper. He has helped the town for a few years. Xiao Ni is still young, and the wife can help the second family take care of the children.

The four adobe houses I live in now will be lent to the elder sister’s family first, and when they build up the house and move out, the older couple will move back with the younger sister. At age, the phase looks...

The young people in the village made Uncle Hu scratch in his heart, and there was always something that he was not satisfied with.

Uncle Hu sighed.

Feeling panicked in the house, I plan to go to the two places in the new house.

From a long distance, Yan Yu saw Grandpa Hu walking forward slowly with his hands behind his back and his body straightened up.

"Grandpa Hu!"

When Uncle Hu heard the movement, he turned around and saw that it was Xiao Er, and the wrinkles on his face burst out into a smile.

"Little Er, what are you doing?"

"Talk to Master Lu about something. Is Grandpa Hu going to Uncle Hu and Uncle Hu's new house? Sit on my sledge, if you can sit down." Yan Yu got down, put on a shelf, and stood behind.

Uncle Hu thought it was new and wanted to try it.

He looked at the dog pulling the sledge in front of him, and asked with some concern: "Can you pull it? Grandpa Hu is very heavy."

"Hee hee! Sure, Grandpa Hu just come up." Yan Yu promised.

Uncle Hu said angrily: "Medium!"

He sat up quickly with his hands and feet, crossed his legs, and sat upright.

"Let's go!"

Yan Yu shouted in a clear voice: "Hold on, run slowly."

"Xiaoer, it's too slow, hurry up."

"Okay! Grandpa Hu sit down... Hold on, let's run!"

...

Uncle Hu grabbed Hu Er very excitedly: "Second boy, next time you catch a few dogs at the fair, don't blame Da Lang and Er Lang for arguing about it. This dog is really good at pulling sledges. Catch the big ones. Once tamed, you can use it when you come home..."

Hu Er readily agreed, and Da Lang and Er Lang next to him looked at each other, wanting to scream twice.

Fortunately, the two children held back and vented all their excitement in the work, and the mortar mixing became more and more cheerful.

"Uncle Lu, my father asked the old man, and he said that if you want to buy a homestead, you can just negotiate with the village, decide which piece of land it is, and then go to the household house to go through the formalities. The land in our village is also land reclamation. Back then It’s better to get more land. If your family wants to plant it, follow our rules of reclaiming wasteland. It’s also a three-year tax exemption, and a three-year deed. It’s just seeds. The government can’t distribute them now, so wait until next spring.” Yan Yu said. It was a little slow, for fear that the Lu family could not hear clearly.

Country people pay special attention to things related to houses and land.

Master Lu's family, his two cousins' family, all stopped what they were doing, surrounded Yan Yu, and listened carefully, for fear of missing a sentence.

Brother Lu Datang said: "In the process of opening up wasteland, if there are no seeds, it will be hit."

Brother Lu Ertang said: "Then how do you organize the land at home? Plant this side, but the other side is too busy. Is it really for sale?"

The whole family has also discussed in private, and they want to live here in Xiao'an Village, but they don't want to give up the original land, but let them plant it. It's too busy. Selling the land is also a way, with more money in hand, here Just build a house.

But...they really don't want to sell the land.

Yan Yu listened and felt that the problem of insufficient labor force was easy to solve.

There are not enough people, use livestock to fill it!

"Uncle Lu, it's better for your family to buy a cow." She sincerely suggested.

"Cows are not easy to buy. Who can sell the cows that are properly used, and the calves will have to be raised for a few years..." Master Lu frowned.

Yan Yu rolled his eyes and asked, "I heard that Beirong has a lot of cattle and sheep, do you have the courage to bring cattle and sheep over there?"

"Why not?" Master Lu said with a lot of experience and knowledge, "It's rare to see tigers here. There are dragons and phoenixes, and there are more phoenixes."

Yan Yu's heart was about to move.

She couldn't help asking: "Uncle Lu, if you can get a cow, can you buy it?"

Master Lu and his two cousins ​​looked at each other, and said with certainty: "Buy, although it is more expensive, but one ox is worth several strong laborers. Let us buy one, and it will be enough for rotation, Xiao Er, but Someone sells cattle at the other end of Huju? If you know the letter, you must speak to us."

Yan Yu answered vaguely, and did not say whether Huju had a cow for sale, but only promised that Youxin would inform the Lu family first.

Uncle Hu was listening by the side.

Think it over.

If you want to farm land, you have to use cattle, regardless of mules or donkeys.

The older people in his family, with five acres of land per person, worked hard day and night to develop it.

To grow vegetables this summer, the plow is shallow, but it needs to be plowed deeper if it is to grow grain.

A lot of the family's money was spent to build two houses, and the rest had to be prepared for the younger sister's dowry...

well!

His family is already among the top three richest families in the village, yet they still live in such a tight situation.

Yan Yu didn't go home, and went directly to the charcoal burning place in the forest.

Both Qi Da and Qi Wu went home for dinner.

Only Qi Si was here, arranging the steamed buns one by one on the stove, and when he felt that they were almost baked, he turned them over.

"Fourth Uncle, Fourth Uncle Qi, Fourth Uncle!" Yan Yu's cheerful voice moved from far to near.

When Qi Si heard the sound, he stood up and strode out of the wooden house.

"Xiaoer!" He shouted happily.
