The sky washed by the rain was clean and bright, with a deep blue sky and white clouds. The sun came out in the evening. At this time, the people who sold food in the town also came back, and today they came back a little later than usual.

The business in the store was not very good today because it was raining, but recently because everyone was rushing home to harvest crops from the fields, there were fewer people working in the town, and their store had less food prepared recently than usual, so even if it rained today, there was not much food left, and Sun Yanshan sold it at a lower price later.

"The crops in the fields have been harvested in the past few days, and there will be more people in the town. We will prepare more food to sell then." Generally, the crops have been harvested at this time, and many people go to the town to do business. Those who have some money in their pockets are willing to buy some food to take home. Cao Xiangnan told Sun Yanshan his idea, and the store can organize some activities at that time, so that the business will be better.

He thought that he would also go to the store to take care of the town. Now there are many things to do in the village, and he gradually let go of the store and let Sun Yanshan take care of it. Cao Dapeng is in charge of food, so he doesn't need to worry too much. But there are some things that he still has to do himself. After all, Sun Yanshan is still behind Sun Ji in some things.

Dinner at his house is almost ready. Cao Xiangnan asked Sun Yanshan and Cao Dapeng to come down for dinner, but they had people waiting at home, so it was inconvenient for them to stay. They politely declined and went back.

The crops in the fields are harvested well, and at this time, even the poor families will have delicious food on their tables. The children like this time the most. After harvesting the grain, they can eat a bowl of fragrant rice and a piece of meat.

Now, as long as the people in Caojia Village are diligent and hardworking, they will not lack a bite of food at home. The vegetables grown in the fields can be sold for money, and those who go to build roads can earn ten yuan a day. Even the boys who cook can earn several yuan a day. If they are lucky enough to build houses, they can earn thirty yuan a day, not to mention other jobs.

In some families, the men and boys all go to work, and their lives are gradually getting better. Now everyone is thinking about saving enough money so that they can build a big green brick tile house. Living in a big green brick tile house is almost everyone's dream.

Today, there are guests at home, and Cao Xiangnan cooked a few more dishes and served the fried dishes on the table. Several children sat down obediently. Qi Wanfeng was serving soup to everyone. Now everyone at home would cook some good soup to drink, and fish and meat were indispensable.

"Auntie Liu, come and eat, please sit down." Qi Wanfeng was not able to move up and down easily because of his big belly, so he asked Auntie Liu, who was brought by Sun Bailian, to come over. When he saw the visitor, he smiled and said.

"Okay, okay." Auntie Liu responded politely.

Cao Xiangnan brought the last dish, and everyone sat down and started eating.

"I have never eaten such a delicious dish in my life." Auntie Liu said with trembling hands holding the bowl after taking the first bite of meat.

"If you like it, eat more. Come on, Auntie Liu, eat it. You're welcome." Qi Wanfeng gave Auntie Liu two more pieces of meat. As another host of this family, he was also warm and considerate in entertaining guests.

"No, no, give it to the children." Auntie Liu wanted to take the meat back, reluctant to eat it.

"Auntie, you eat it. The children will have some." Now there is no shortage of food in the family. There is enough meat on the table for everyone. No one will be missing out. Qi Wanfeng told Auntie Liu to just eat it.

After dinner, Cao Gang also took Sun Bailian and the children back home.

Auntie Liu stayed at their house tonight. They cleaned up the room and replaced the quilt and pillows on the bed with clean ones. An An gave up the room and went to Xingxing's room to sleep with Xingxing.

It was getting darker. After settling Auntie Liu, the children at home went back to their rooms to sleep after taking a bath. They didn't have to worry about the children at home.

Cao Xiangnan also came back to the room after taking a bath. When he came in, he saw the man sitting there wiping his hair. He walked over and took the towel from Wanfeng's hand and wiped his hair. He couldn't let go of Wanfeng's long hair.

The oil lamp on the table was lit, and there were two intersecting shadows on the ground.

"... Let's build another yard in the back, so that if there are guests coming to our house, there will be a place to stay." Thinking that there were only enough rooms for a few children to sleep in the house, and if there were guests, there would be no place to stay, and there was still a lot of land nearby, Cao Xiangnan planned to build another yard

. He asked, "What do you think, Wanfeng?" "Well, it's possible." Now there are a few guests coming to their house from time to time, so the children don't have to give up their rooms. Qi Wanfeng thinks this is also possible.

But as for how to build it, he doesn't know, and all of this will be done by my husband.

It was drizzling outside again. The two of them were lying on the bed, and Cao Xiangnan talked about building a yard for the children when they grew up, so that they would have their own independent places. Qi Wanfeng laughed at her husband for thinking too far ahead, but he couldn't stop himself from thinking.

Lying on the bed and listening to the sound of rain outside, the person in his arms had already fallen asleep. Cao Xiangnan kissed the person in his arms and fell asleep with him in his arms.

That night, they had each other in their dreams.

The sky cleared up the next day, the crops in the fields were harvested, and everything in the village began to return to normal.

Their yard was busy as usual. The brothers who worked at home also came, and the children of several families were sent over, sitting on the benches with their backs straight to read. Aunt Liu sat on a small stool at the door, listening to the children reading aloud.

After discussing with Cao Gang yesterday, we decided to go to the neighboring village to find some men who can work to build the house. It is not difficult to find people. The brothers who work in his house now are from several nearby villages. Cao Xiangnan came to tell the brothers about this matter and asked them if there are any good builders in their mother's family to help find two people to come.

"Oh, it's a coincidence. My two brothers built the house in my mother's family. They also build houses for people in the village. I will talk to them later and there will be no problem." Chen Wan is also a boy who came here to make clothes. When he heard that Cao Silang was looking for people to build a house, he immediately thought of his two older brothers in his mother's family.

He had heard that Cao Silang was paid thirty taels a day to build a house, and that he might not be able to earn that much money even if he went to work in the town. If he told his two brothers, they would definitely come, so he quickly reserved two positions for his eldest brother.

When the brothers saw that Chen Wan had quickly reserved two positions for his two brothers, they all introduced their mother's family members to Cao Silang.

Some said, "My second brother has never built a house for anyone, but my eldest brother works diligently and is an honest man." Cao Xiangnan also said that it was no problem, "How about this, if you are free, you can ask someone to go back to your parents' home, or you can go back yourself, and call the person over to let me see."

"Come here to work, if your home is far away, I will provide you with food and accommodation, three meals a day. As for the salary, it will be paid according to your level of proficiency. Those who know how to build a house can get 30 big bucks a day, and those who have never done it before will get 20 big bucks a day. After two months, when you are proficient, you can do the same as everyone else." This means that the first two months are the trial stage.

Needless to say, the people brought by Master Feng are all veterans in building houses. The people we found in the village at the beginning also had experience in this kind of work, and everyone calculated that they would be paid thirty yuan a day. But now, as long as you are able and willing to work, it doesn't matter if you are new to the job. The salary will be a little lower, but it will increase as you become more familiar with it.

"But I must emphasize that those who are lazy and clever will all be asked to leave. Master Feng will have an assessment at that time, and those who fail will not be accepted." So not everyone can work here. At least if they can't pass Master Feng's test, they will leave. Cao Xiangnan made an agreement with everyone first.

In this era, being kicked out by the employer is a very shameful thing. Generally, no one would come to work and slack off. If they were kicked out, they would not be able to raise their heads in front of others.

Several brothers who introduced Cao Silang to his mother's family all promised that they would never do that. When they went back to his mother's family to find someone to come, they also brought Cao Silang's words. They were reluctant to take leave from work here. Taking a day off would reduce their wages for a day. They all asked others to send a message to their mother's family to ask them to come.

After telling these brothers about this matter, Cao Xiangnan didn't have to worry about the future.

At the end of June and the beginning of July, the crops in the fields were harvested. This year, the crops in Caojia Village were harvested faster than in previous years. After the crops were harvested, everyone rushed to work to earn money. The road construction has also resumed from today, and those who can come to work have rushed to work.

After a heavy rain, the benefits of the road construction in the village have now become apparent. In the past, when it rained, the road was full of potholes. Now after the road construction, it is wide and flat, and the raised road surface is higher than the sides. The water flows down to the sides, and there is no water on the road surface.

Today, many families in the village also need to repair the roof. Cao Xiangnan found someone to repair the roof for Aunt Liu, and he didn't have time to go there himself.

Yesterday it rained and the work was suspended for half a day. Cao Xiangnan and Cao Gang came to the factory to take a look. Today it was sunny and work had resumed. After walking around with Master Feng, Cao Xiangnan also told Master Feng that when he asked someone to invite people, "... Master Feng will stay if these people are useful."

Cao Xiangnan taught Master Feng about selecting people. After all, Master Feng is a professional. What he is most looking forward to now is that Master Feng can lead a construction team.

They are waiting to use the factory here, and it is best to complete it as much as possible, so the progress here is also relatively fast.

Master Feng said that it was no problem, and he happened to be short of manpower here. All the people he led were already here, and there was no more manpower. Since they came to Caojia Village to build a house, they have been living and eating here. The houses of the landlords were built in a hurry. Now it is not just a big tiled house with green bricks, but several houses in a row. He is gradually feeling tired. If there are more people, it will be good.

"Then leave it to Master Feng." Cao Xiangnan still trusts Feng Guang more.

Now when Feng Guang hears Cao Xiangnan's words, he always feels that he has been cheated, but once he falls into this pit, he is happy to do it. There is endless work to do and endless money to make.
