Chapter 387 Nothing to Say
There's nothing wrong with saying this to avoid some gossip.
After all, who doesn't want to live happily? Who wants to be in trouble all day? Even if you don't compromise, it will affect your mood.
Uncle Shao had nothing to say.
"It's up to you!"
Fang then made a decisive decision: "That's it!"
However, if this were to happen, the old houses would be demolished and the overall planning would be re-done, and everyone would have to find a place to live in the village for a while.
Originally, if the second and third wives were willing, they would definitely vacate a house for them to share, but seeing the character of those two families, they were afraid that they would take advantage and would definitely not let them live there.
Besides, except Uncle Shao, no one else in the first house was willing to live in the second or third house.
Finally, Fang went to find the head of the village and the clan members, and the family planned to move to an empty house next to the ancestral hall to live there temporarily.
Various luggage and belongings were also moved there and placed.
As for the kitchen, we can just build a simple wooden house temporarily.
When the whole village heard that the Shao family was going to build a new house, it was shocked.
"The eldest branch of the Shao family has really become wealthy. They can build houses as soon as they say so."
"That's right, where do they get so much money?"
"But their family has so many people now that they really can't accommodate them. When their daughters-in-law have children, where else will they live?"
"This is not just building two more rooms. I heard that they demolished everything and rebuilt it."
"Not only that, they also bought a circle of vacant land on the side. Wow, how big must this house be!"
"Hey, you don't have to worry about that! After all, he married a rich daughter-in-law!"
"Twenty-six sets of dowry, more gold and silver than that, how much will it cost to build a house?"
“.”
Everyone was talking about it, sighing with envy.
The second and third wives did not expect that the first wife would make such a big fuss about building a new house, and they could not help but come to the house to persuade her. They said it was a waste of money, and that the old house was still habitable, so they could just add two more rooms, and why did they have to tear it down and rebuild it.
Obviously, Fang and others ignored it.
Later, the second and third wives found out that the eldest wife had actually bought more than two acres of land in the surrounding area, and it seemed that she would also use it to build a new house. She became even more anxious.
Uncle Shao: "Brother and sister-in-law, how big a house do you want to build? Why did you buy up all the land around it? Do you still have money to build the house?"
Niu was very sour: "Brother and sister-in-law, if you have a way to make money, please take us with you. Our house should be renovated."
Fang laughed and ignored it.
It is not their turn to point fingers at what our family plans to do.
Uncle Shao had no control over Qiao Xuan's money, and he had no say in the matter of building a house. When the second and third wives came to ask him about it, he could only stammer and say that there were too many people in the family and there was not enough space, so he thought of building a few more rooms. If they were all built at once, he wouldn't have to bother adding to the house when his grandchildren were born.
As for the second and third wives asking for money in various ways, he was even more speechless.
He couldn't explain the reason, but he didn't dare tell the second and third wives that his family had the money to build a house. Part of the money came from Qiao Xuan, and the other part was earned from selling the valuable Gastrodia elata found in the mountains.
He was afraid that if he told it, his second and third brothers would blame him.
But his hesitating made Uncle Shao and the others suspicious. They thought he must be hiding something from their family, and they all left with gloomy faces.
Unexpectedly, the house that Dafang wanted to build was not only expanded by more than two acres, but he also bought the neighbor's house and yard, small vegetable garden and a small piece of vacant land around the neighbor - a total of more than four acres.
