Nothing happened next, and the villagers who were watching left with smiles on their faces.
They had to go back quickly and tell their family the good news.
Twenty cents a day, and the contractors in town only earn fifteen cents a day.
Just now they didn't ask how many people they needed to work, so they have to go to the new company early tomorrow to sign up, otherwise this good opportunity will be snatched away by others.
Shen Yu'an and his friends also went back to the house they were currently renting.
Shen Rong wanted to send the village chief back, but the village chief waved his hand to refuse, then left humming an unknown tune.
By the time Shen Yu'an and the others returned, Bai Yi had already eaten and left.
The people who stayed in the yard pulled out all the weeds in the yard and swept all the dust in the house.
As soon as Mrs. Shen saw Shen Yu'an coming back, she pulled her over and asked anxiously, "Yu'an, why did someone come to ask about our recruitment just now?"
It turned out that just before Shen Yu'an and the others came back, those who had received the news came running to ask for news.
They asked Old Lady Shen and the others to reserve two seats for their family members for the sake of their friendship during their recent chat outside the main gate of Zhuli.
But Mrs. Shen and the others didn't know about this, so they could only hesitantly pass it over.
Now that Shen Yu'an and the others have returned, he is dragging them to question them.
Shen Yu'an then told them about hiring someone to build a house.
Old Mrs. Shen felt a little sorry for the money. With 20 cents a day per person, how much would it cost to build a house?
Shen Ming also came over and said, "Xiao An'an, why don't we build this house ourselves? We have a big family, so it will be finished in no time."
After Chen Yun sent Xiao Zhang out of the house, he casually said, "Your second uncle is right. Just build a house. Our family can do it ourselves. There is no need to find someone else."
"Let's build my uncle's house first, and then we can build our own house together."
"We built our previous house ourselves. It wasn't difficult."
Everyone agreed with the two brothers' proposal.
Shen Yu'an saw that what they said made sense, but he did not agree to this matter directly.
Since she bought two more houses, the houses must be quite big.
Their family seems to have a lot of people, but most of them are elderly people, women and children, and only a few can really help.
If we wait for them to build the house, we won’t know when we can move in.
She said, "It's less than two months before the end of the year. We are too slow to build it ourselves. We may not be able to catch up."
After Shen Yu'an said this, everyone became a little hesitant again.
Because when the village head left, he said that this family would come back to live for a while during the Chinese New Year, so they definitely could not continue to rent the house.
Mr. Shen didn't say anything for a long time, and finally made the decision: "An'an is right. This is our first year here, and the house is our first step. We can't spend the New Year without a house."
"An'an bought two more plots of land next to that house. Together, they are much larger than our previous house. We'll discuss how to build this house later, and then we'll get ready."
Now that the matter has been decided, they no longer worry about it.
There are only six houses, and just now everyone let Chen Yun and Xiao Zhang live in the smallest one.
The remaining five houses still require everyone to squeeze together to accommodate them.
After a busy day and yet to eat, the Song family hurried into the kitchen to cook.
The rest of the people gathered around Shen Yu'an to discuss building a house.
Shen Yu'an took out a blueprint of a new house. She had started preparing it a few days ago, and it just happened to come in handy now.
Mr. Shen, Shen Ming and the others came over to watch.
Shen Ming looked at the blueprint and asked in surprise: "An girl, did you draw the blueprint for this house?"
Shen Yuan nodded and replied: "Well, I drew it during my break on the road these two days. Any problem?"
Shen Ming scratched his head and chuckled twice: "No problem, I just think your painting is quite novel, what did you use to draw it?"
Shen Yu'an was stunned by the question, and suddenly remembered that people here still painted with brushes, while she had just drawn this picture with bamboo charcoal.
"I drew it with the firewood and bamboo charcoal we burned on the road."
Shen Rong took the drawing in his hand and said with some appreciation: "It's a good drawing. Looking at it this way, it is more three-dimensional than the one drawn with a brush."
Shen Yu'an smiled modestly. Could she say that she used bamboo charcoal because she was not used to painting with a brush?
She changed the subject and said, "Then let's take a look at this drawing to see if there is anything that needs to be changed."
Everyone gathered together to discuss for a long time and decided on the general outline of the house. They planned to start working after buying bricks and tiles.
There are only four people in the Zhang family, and they don't need much room at the moment. After a brief discussion, they decided on the room type.
Then you need to go to town to buy bricks and tiles.
Shen Yu'an found that the worst houses built by farmers here were made of mud and straw.
The better ones are made of wood, blue bricks and ceramic tiles.
They can go up the mountain to find some wood, but they have to buy bricks and tiles.
You also need to go to the town to buy materials for glutinous rice mortar and rammed earth.
When Song and her family brought in the finished meal, they just happened to hear them discussing what ingredients to buy in town.
She opened her mouth and wanted to say that she could just dig some soil from the mountain to build a house.
But when he looked at the bright blue brick and tile house in front of him, he immediately shut his mouth.
An Yatou and her husband both had their own plans in mind. Since they agreed to buy it, it must mean they have enough money, so she didn't interrupt.
She held two bowls of noodles in her hands and shouted to Shen Yu'an and the others who were gathered together, "Quickly clear the table, the meal is ready."
Shen Yu'an and the others dispersed in an instant, leaving the table free.
Shen Rong also quickly took a bowl and put it on the table.
For lunch, we made braised noodles with fried eggs. This recipe was made by Song according to Shen Yu'an's instructions a few days ago.
Shen Yu'an knew that he couldn't cook, so he just told Old Lady Shen and the others the cooking methods in his mind.
There was a fried golden egg in everyone's bowl. The noodles looked hot and steamy, and they looked delicious.
Everyone went to the kitchen to bring their own meals, and gathered in the main room, sitting or standing, chatting and eating.
