Zhuang Zhimeng was also looking forward to it.
"Okay, I understand!"
"By the way, Qingbai, have you found someone to help build the house? Besides our own family and Meng Ge and Xia Zi, have you found anyone else?"
"Yes, my dad found a lot of skilled builders in the village to help! We just need to provide them with three meals a day!"
"Should we still pay them their wages?"
"We'll pay the workers after the house is finished. Two yuan per person."
"Okay, let's drill a well for our new house. Do we need to pay extra for drilling the well?"
An Qingbai nodded.
"You have to pay to drill a well; it costs more than 200 yuan to drill one."
Zhuang Zhimeng understood.
"That's a good idea. We can dig a well then."
An Qingbai also agreed.

An Tanxiao laughed and scolded him.
"Virtue!"
He slapped his forehead as if something had come to mind.
"You're still talking? I need to hurry up and select your main beam. I've already picked out several trees, and it's just a matter of making the final decision. I'm not going to waste my breath on you here; I need to go take a look!"
An Qingbai smiled and shook his head.
When Shi Meiling returned from her parents' home, An Qingbai told his mother the story again.
Shi Meiling waved her hand.
"Okay, we can talk about building the house later. I need to rest now, I'm dying of heat."
