Because Erlaizi's family had lost their house, all of them, young and old, moved into relatives' homes. Only Erlaizi needed to come to Zhao Wei to practice martial arts and receive treatment, so he simply let him live in his own home.
Erlaizi was a hard-working man. He basically did all the work. He cleaned the cages of the four little wolves very well.
Regarding rebuilding the house, I don’t know what they were thinking. They actually wanted to be neighbors with Zhao Wei’s family.
They also don't like the restrained life in the village and are eager to live in the mountains, where they can relax and enjoy the scenery.
So he went to the production brigade to apply for it, and strongly requested to move his family's homestead to a small hill outside the village.
As for the original place, the reason they gave was that they were scared by the fire and had a psychological trauma, so they dared not stay there any longer.
Moreover, after a new residential plot is drawn for them, they can give up their original residential plot.
This is the land passed down from generation to generation. If you say you don't want it, then you give it up. There will be many people in the village eyeing it.
Therefore, after receiving the application, the production team specially organized a discussion among the members.
Everyone agreed.
They saw that the foot of the mountain was very dangerous, but it was not very noticeable in winter.
When spring comes and all things come back to life, the poisonous insects and ferocious beasts in the mountains will sneak into people's homes.
When the crops are about to mature, it is even more terrifying, as countless ferocious beasts will come down the mountain at night to cause trouble.
People living at the foot of the mountain were the first to bear the brunt of the disaster.
The most important thing is that it is a mountainous area with a lot of rocks in the ground. Normally, only some weeds can grow there. The labor cost of reclaiming wasteland and farming is too high, so it has always been a useless land.
As long as it doesn't involve forcible occupation of arable land, everyone is happy to help.
The main reason for this is that Erlaizi's family trusts Zhao Wei very much. He dares to live here with his family, so what do they have to be afraid of?
So, after some discussion, the application was finally passed with a unanimous vote.
Erlaizi's family started to get busy, and the people who helped them were the same people who had previously repaired Zhao Wei's house.
Now that we have experience, our work efficiency has improved a lot.
When they are bored, Yue Wei will take Yunxiu to Erlaizi's house to help. Their main responsibility is to pick up stones and dig sand by the river, which is a relatively interesting job.
The scenery by the river is quite nice, with few people and a quiet atmosphere, which is suitable for a couple to work while whispering sweetly.
The two of them were responsible for putting the stones and sand into a scoop and then pouring them into large backpacks that were 1.2 meters long.
There are ten of them, leaning against the rocks on the shore. Looking at them from a distance, they are lined up in rows, which is quite spectacular.
At this time, on the roadside, you can hear the sound of spring water flowing, and the stones and sand are gradually decreasing, constantly developing upstream.
In spring and summer, the river would overflow to the shore and flood the crops on both sides.
Therefore, although there is a lot of black silt on both sides of the river, the harvest has not been very good and it belongs to very low-grade thin land.
Zhao Wei's family was kicked out of the house, so they have no land. Now all the land has been sold to his uncle's family. They have to endure this half year and wait until the autumn harvest. Life will be very good for these guys.
People in the village still envy him a little.
But Zhao Wei was not in a hurry. When spring came, he could apply to the cooperative and cultivate the land on his own.
He also knew that land in the village was in short supply. If he wanted the village to allocate some land to him, it would be tantamount to taking advantage of others, which would be resisted by all the villagers.
But if you open up new land by yourself, that won’t happen, because that will be considered the result of your own labor.
But in order to prevent the land he reclaimed from being occupied by others in the future, he still had to apply for it and he needed a written document.
Five days had passed by in the blink of an eye, and there was still no news of those who went up the mountain to hunt. Their families had begun to get restless and frequently appeared at the foot of the mountain.
When Zhao Wei and his colleagues were busy, they could see these people standing there, waiting with their brows lowered.
The second apprentice was particularly fond of listening to gossip, and he ran to Zhao Wei's ear to whisper something.
"Master, you don't know that the hunter is related to some of those people. Their distribution model is different from your average distribution. The hunter takes one-tenth, and the rest is divided equally among everyone."
"Those people who instigated you wanted to get more benefits from the hunter after they came back, so they left you behind."
"Tsk tsk... If he doesn't come back in two days, I'm afraid... he's in danger!"
Zhao Wei smiled and said, "You guys always want them to stay away from coming back. How about I make a bet with them that they will come back safely? If something happens to them, I will have to do a thousand squats as punishment!"
"Hiss... Master, you're betting on this? This is a thousand. After I finished 200, my legs could hardly stand straight. I bet that even if they come back, they will be disabled. If they don't finish, let me run for two hours!"
The others also got excited and told us their bets.
"I'm betting that none of these people will come back. Damn it, let them all die in the mountains. If any one of them comes back, I lose. Just do a toad jump from the east to the west of the village."
"I agree with the second one. I'll run for two hours too."
"I agree with Master. I will do a thousand squats as punishment."
…
Seeing everyone's enthusiastic response, Yunxiu also became interested and joined in.
"I agree with your master, but I also bet that they will gain nothing and return empty-handed. If I guess right, all of you must fulfill these bets."
Everyone gasped when they heard this, thinking that the master's wife was more ruthless and was determined to catch them all in one fell swoop.
“God bless you, and please help me win this time.”
"God bless me to win..."
"My ancestors must bless me..."
…
Seeing everyone praying to gods in such a foolish manner, Zhao Wei was too lazy to pay attention to them. Instead, he leaned over to Yunxiu's ear and whispered something.
"Wife, I feel you will win this time. When the time comes, please have mercy on your husband and let him win!"
"Pfft...are you afraid of a thousand squats? Aren't you doing enough every day? Isn't it just a blink of an eye and you can finish it?"
"No, no, no... If it's a punishment, how can it be so simple? I have to carry a person on my back. At that time, I can't carry them all, so I can only carry you, cough cough..."
"Ah, bah! You're waiting for me here, why do I feel like you have bad intentions?"
"No way, I am such a kind and righteous person, how could I plot against my wife? You think too much, hehe..."
