"Sister-in-law, please tell me quickly."

“We’ve thought about it. Xiuxiu is already married into the family, so maybe she’ll get pregnant in a few months.”

Hu Xiuxiu and Ye Yong, who had been sitting quietly in the back, blushed deeply upon hearing these words.

“I’m pregnant, so we have to wait a year… The rainy season is coming soon, and the house is leaky and drafty. I don’t want my grandson to live in a house like this. What I mean is, we want to build a house as soon as possible, and make it out of blue bricks, haha! So I’d like to ask you for 30 taels of silver.”

"We originally thought that with an income of two taels a month, we could pay it off in one or two years. Now that my younger sister has given us this job, which pays 24 taels a month, we have even less to worry about."

Thinking about it, Du's face was practically beaming with joy.

"Sure," Ye Caiping said with a smile. "If you're going to build one, make it big. I'll lend you 40 taels, sister-in-law!"

Mrs. Du looked delighted and said, "Thank you, little sister."

Madam Wei frowned: "Building a house is a good thing, but does my elder brother and sister-in-law want to build it on the original land?"

"Of course," Old Mrs. Ye said anxiously, "That's our ancestral home! It must be rebuilt on the original site."

Madam Wei said, "Then eldest brother and sister-in-law need to move out first..."

Ye Daquan looked at Ye Caiping with a hopeful expression.

Ye Caiping smiled and said, "Then you and your sister-in-law can move into my house first. Once the house is finished, you can move back."

"Yes!" Ye Daquan responded excitedly.

“Brother, you can move into my house,” Ye Erquan said.

"Get out! I'm staying at my younger sister's house!" Ye Daquan glared at him. "I've had enough of being crammed in with you guys at the old house. It's only just gotten a little more spacious, and now I'm squeezing in your place again! Isn't my younger sister's big house better?"

"Nonsense!" Ye Erquan retorted angrily. "My house has two more side rooms than the old house, and the rooms are also bigger, so there's plenty of room to live in."

"I'm not staying at your place anyway!"

Ye Caiping and Old Man Ye couldn't help but laugh as they watched the two brothers bickering.

Old Man Ye frowned and said, "The old house, including the vegetable garden, is only four-tenths of an acre, which is a bit small."

Now that we have spare money, of course we should build a bigger one.
