Upon opening her eyes, Shen Qing found herself in a mud-and-thatch hut, wearing clothes covered in patches, eating corn paste, and seeing no trace of meat or oil. Shen Qing: This is too miserable! ...
Chapter 238 Room Assignment
Jiang Yu raised his head and looked at the man in the crowd.
The people who bought the meat have gone home happily, and the crowd around the cart has thinned out a lot.
The Lei family, who had been extremely busy, finally relaxed a little, but Lei Dafu, who was responsible for chopping wild boar meat, was still busy.
But even though he was so busy, when Jiang Yu looked over, he found that he was looking at him.
His brows were slightly furrowed, and worry was in his dark eyes.
What are you worried about? Are you worried that she won't accept the fruit?
Jiang Yu tentatively stretched out his hand and took the basket from Lei Chuntian. He saw that the corners of the originally cold and hard man's mouth relaxed, and there was even a slight tendency for it to rise.
"Dafu, my family only gets 35 kilograms of wild boar meat in total. Please help me chop the bones into smaller pieces." Zhao Laoer couldn't help but say it again when he saw that Lei Dafu was reluctant to move his machete.
There's no way. Thirty-five kilograms sounds like a lot, but it has to be divided into several meals or even more than ten meals. There are also many bones in it, and the bones are especially heavy. If they are not chopped into small pieces, each person will not be able to get more than two pieces when it's time to eat.
Lei Dafu came back to his senses, retracted his gaze to look at Zhao Laoer in front of the chopping board, and replied with a smile: "Okay."
Zhao Laoer: Why did he feel that Dafu's mood had suddenly improved? He seemed very happy.
He didn't say anything.

The new house has been built, but a lot of things still need to be purchased to make it comfortable to live in.
The main house has a floor heating system, which can keep the whole house warm in winter, but there is no need for a kang, so there is no bed to sleep on.
But that’s nothing!
After all, it has been several months since I last lived without a bed, and I also had no bed when I was huddled in the oilcloth house. In such a narrow and small place, I could just spread a straw mat and put a mattress on it to sleep. What's more, how could I sleep in the spacious and flat new house?
In particular, the main house with ground dragons was paved with stone slabs from the beginning. The floor of the entire house was not made of mud, but smooth and clean stone slabs.
There are no bumps when you walk on it, and you don’t have to worry about leaks on rainy days and muddy puddles when you step on them. Now you can not only sweep the floor but also mop the floor. In the future, the room will be clean and tidy from top to bottom!
Shen Qing is allocating houses.
Who will live where? This was decided when the foundation was laid.
The layout of the whole house is also very simple. There were basically no high-rise buildings in this dynasty, and families with large families and good conditions preferred courtyard houses.
She thinks the Siheyuan is perfect for living, especially in the cold and dry north!
There is no need to worry about moisture and mold, no need to worry about the return of moisture from the south wind, and the houses are built around the house, and the gaps between the houses are connected by walls. The yard is surrounded in the middle, which can protect privacy and safety!
The whole family is scattered all over the place, and their family life is closely connected without interfering with each other. The large and spacious courtyard can meet all the needs of washing, playing and leisure activities.
What Shen Qing was most satisfied with was the "sense of order" of the courtyard!
From inside to outside, from east to west, the distribution of the old and the young, men and women, as well as the kitchen, toilet, wood room and warehouse is very reasonable.
It's so livable!
She looked at her excited family members and began to announce, "A Bing, you and the two children will live in the west room of the main house."
The main house has underfloor heating, so it is warm both day and night in winter. Of course, Ah Bing and the two little babies have to live in the warm and comfortable main house.
Jiang Xiangdong spoke first: "Thank you, mother! You are so kind to us!"
Especially he was so good to the eldest son of the Jiang family.
He was assigned a room in the main house right away, and was given the westernmost room with the best sunlight. Wasn't it because he was the eldest son?
He also made clear his status as the eldest brother to his younger brothers and sisters!
Shen Qing: .....Oh, I forgot there is a boss.
But it’s okay, he is now a good take care of children, and living there is just the right time for him to take care of the children.
Build the room big and divide it up when the dolls grow up or partition the rooms.
She looked at her second son and said, "Second son, your wedding to Ali will probably be held at the beginning of next month. You will live in the second room west of the main house."
Jiang Xiangxi is already nineteen years old this year, which is considered old for marriage in this dynasty. Fortunately, he will be married in a few days, and a married man must have his own room.
Jiang Xiangxi's tall body paused for a moment before he remembered his elder brother's behavior. He imitated his brother and said, "Thank you, mother!"
Mom is so nice to him and Ali!
Shen Qing continued, "Once the houses in the village are built, we will definitely send people to the city to sell medicinal herbs. Take these few days to think about how to decorate the house and what things we need to buy.
I'll give you some money, and you can go to the city and buy whatever you want. It's all up to you."
Jiang Xiangxi didn't expect that his mother would even consider this, but he simply didn't know how to do it.
He stammered nervously, "Mom, I, I don't know how to arrange it. Could you please help me think of it?"
"Second brother, you are so stupid. Mom meant for you to ask Sister Ali! You wouldn't not care. Of course you should ask Sister Ali's opinion. After all, you two will live together in the future." Jiang Shui just wanted to sigh.
Shen Qing: ...Xiaoshui is still the one who sees things clearly.
Jiang Xiangxi was even happier.
For some reason, the better, more attentive, and more caring his mother was to Ali, the happier he was, even happier than if she had been nice to him.
Shen Qing looked at Jiang Shui, and after a moment's hesitation, he asked, "Xiao Shui, I'll live in the first room on the east side, and the second room will be separated in the middle. Your aunt will live in the south-facing room, and you can live in the north-facing room. Is that okay?"
The main house has five rooms in total, the middle one is the main room and cannot be lived in;
The two rooms on the west side have one room each for the eldest and the second room, and she lives in the room on the east side alone. There is only one room left, but it is more than 40 square meters. Each room in the middle is more than 20 square meters, so the area is not small.
The only downside is that one faces south and the other faces north, and the lighting from the north side is definitely not as good as that from the south side.
Jiang Shui didn't understand why her mother asked her whether she could succeed.
Of course she can.
Mother is the head of the family, so of course she should have a whole room;
Only when the eldest and second brothers got married and had babies did they get a whole room in the main house.
There was only one room left, separated by a room. You should know that the third and fourth brothers didn't get this room, and neither did the youngest brother who was the most valued and loved by his mother.
Besides, it is only natural for her aunt to live in the south-facing room. How could she still argue with her aunt?
She is a daughter and her mother has allocated a room for her in the main house. Would she be unwilling?
She was so happy and grateful that she couldn't contain herself!
Her nose felt a little sore, and she choked with a thick nasal voice, "Mom, you are so kind."
It was really good. They didn’t deny her a room just because she was a daughter and would get married sooner or later.
Nor did they let her live in the woodshed or warehouse just because she was a daughter.
Jiang Yu's eyes sparkled.
Not only did her sister-in-law assign her a room in the main house, but it was also next to her sister-in-law!
My sister-in-law likes me to be closer to her, right?
