Chapter 84 Be careful your dad will beat you with a belt



Thinking of the good days in the future, Lu Zhaodi couldn't help but feel happy.

She returned to the dormitory with a smile on her face, packed up all her things and put them in a snakeskin bag. She would later borrow a wheelbarrow from the villagers and move to her new home together.

Lin Yizhen looked at the two people with different expressions and felt very satisfied.

Now Lu Zhaodi's mind is all on Chen Gui, and she probably won't provoke Qian Xiaoman and herself for the time being.

Chen Gui is now entangled with Lu Zhaodi again, and he probably doesn't have time to come to me again. The two of them can restrain each other and avoid causing trouble to others.

After watching the excitement at the educated youth site, Lin Yizhen went in to give some snacks to Qian Xiaoman and then went to the new house.

The team leader just told her that the house is almost built.

The beams have already been put up, so I asked her to go over and take a look and prepare some things needed for the work.

Lin Yizhen also wanted to go over and take a look. She heard about the process of topping out a house here.

Lin Yizhen didn't understand either, but she bought whatever the captain asked her to buy.

The captain had asked her to buy some candies, steamed buns, rice cakes, etc. She had already prepared them all and would bring them over later.

Thinking of this, Lin Yizhen went back to her residence again, took all the things she needed to take and put them in a bamboo basket.

Then, he carried the basket and walked towards the new house.

On the way, they happened to meet Chen Gui and Lu Zhaodi walking towards the village entrance together. It seemed that they were preparing to take Old Man Li's ox cart to the town.

When Chen Gui saw Lin Yizhen, he wanted to go up and say something to her, but was stopped by Lu Zhaodi.

Lu Zhaodi gave Lin Yizhen a smug smile and pulled Chen Gui away.

Lin Yizhen was a little puzzled when she saw Lu Zhaodi leaving with her head held high like a proud rooster.

What's wrong with this person? Why is she so proud of herself? She doesn't think she snatched Chen Gui from me, does she?

Thinking of this reason, Lin Yizhen couldn't help but shudder and felt goose bumps all over her body.

I feel that the brains of these two people are different from those of ordinary people. It’s better to stay away from them in the future!

Bad brains are contagious, and it would be terrible if you infected yourself.

So, Lin Yizhen quickly quickened her pace to leave.

When we got to the new house, we saw that quite a few people had already arrived.

Some were the people who helped her build the house, some came to watch the fun, and some were children waiting below to pick up candy.

In short, there are quite a few people here today.

When they saw Lin Yizhen coming, they quickly made way for her and shouted, "Lin Zhiqing is here! Lin Zhiqing is here with candy and steamed buns."

A group of children heard that Lin Zhiqing had come and brought things for the beams.

They all jumped up with joy, running and shouting, "Oh! There are candies to eat, there are candies to eat."

The children's cries could be heard from far away, and the people around came running over when they heard their cries, even those who were working in the fields came running over.

Anything the homeowner puts on the beam will be spilled from inside the house, and whoever grabs it will own it.

When everyone heard that Lin Zhiqing had prepared the materials for the beams, how could they not rush over together? It had been so long since they had encountered such a generous landlord.

Lin Yizhen heard the discussions of the surrounding villagers, but she did not feel dissatisfied.

On the contrary, she was somewhat happy.

She has no shortage of food, and she is willing to use it to build good relationships with the villagers.

What's more, the villagers were all nice to her, so she specially prepared some extra candies to give to the villagers.

Lin Yizhen handed the basket in her hand to the team leader and watched him tie the basket with a rope and hang it on the roof.

Then, Lin Yizhen saw several people sitting on the roof holding baskets, saying a nice word and sprinkling a handful of candy down.

He sprinkled a handful down, and the people below rushed over to grab it.

To avoid everyone being crowded together, the person should scatter the candy in a different direction each time, so that everyone can pick up the candy.

Although this person has tried his best to spread the water around, the children waiting below are also not slow.

They would go wherever there was candy, and some even took off their clothes to catch the candy.

It turns out this method is quite useful. At least they get more candies than others.

The adults nearby laughed and scolded, "You little brats, it would be great if you could use your cleverness to study."

The child who grabbed the most candies laughed proudly and said, "The teacher doesn't give candies even if I study well. Why should I study so well? It's good enough if I can learn a few words and write my own name."

The adults nearby heard this and said, "Er Gouzi, don't get complacent. Be careful if your dad hears this or he'll beat you to death with his belt."

But the boy didn't care at all. He peeled the candy and put it in his mouth while saying, "I'm not afraid because my dad doesn't have a belt."

Having said that, he wrapped the small bag of candy in his clothes and ran away.

Lin Yizhen looked at the boy who ran away, smiled and shook her head, thinking: It’s good to have candy now, but when he grows up and gets married, he will know the value of studying.

After delivering the things for the beam-raising ceremony, Lin Yizhen walked around her new house again.

The team leader was indeed very responsible, and the house was built exactly according to her requirements. Every room in the house had a kang (kang), and the east and west rooms were separated by bricks.

Among them, Lin Yizhen reserved the room on the east side as the main house for herself.

She used the small room as a bathroom.

But there are no floor tiles now, so we can only use ordinary slightly flat stones, grind them flat and lay them on the ground as floor tiles.

This is learning from the practices of later generations as remembered by the original owner, although it is not as good or as detailed as those of later generations.

But it’s already pretty good to be able to do this, at least I don’t have to run to the toilet behind the house in the middle of the night.

There was no flush toilet, only a regular toilet.

Fortunately, there is a door at the back, so I can go out directly through the back door to empty the toilet every day, which is very convenient.

Lin Yizhen plans to use the west room as a guest room or for her future children to live in.

So she divided a large room in the west wing into two small rooms.

This way, even if there are many people, they can still accommodate them.

There is a private plot outside the house, and a normal toilet is built on the edge of the private plot.

Around the perimeter of her private plot, Lin Yizhen asked the team leader to build a stone wall to surround the house and the private plot.

In addition to the private plot at the back, there is also a large piece of land in the front yard, which is enclosed along with the kitchen.

In the front yard, Lin Yizhen plans to open two small vegetable plots.

Then, plant peach and pear trees in the yard.

Also, plant a grape vine in front of the kitchen so that there is a place to cool off in the summer.

If there is still space, you can create a small garden and plant a few camellias, roses, and impatiens of various colors.

These kinds of flowers are all Lin Yizhen's favorites and are relatively easy to care for.

Although Lin Yizhen likes flowers, she doesn't know how to take care of them and often kills them.
