The three little girls were eventually driven into the new house and told to go play with their cousins.
Bani and Lin Shumei are the same age. They are cousins and classmates, and they have a very good relationship. Bani rushed in, calling Shumei's name all the way.
Shumei lay at the foot of the stairs and looked down, "This way, this way, Sister Qi Ni, Sister Ba Ni, Sister Jiu Ni, come up quickly!"
Shumei's room faces north and is closest to the stairs. Just turn right when you go up.
The three girls came upstairs with their mouths open, moaning softly all the way, and only started to moan loudly after entering Lin Shumei's room.
Although the bed sheets and quilt covers were bought by Chen Chunhua a long time ago, because she knows her child's preferences better, Lin Shumei's bed is really pink from top to bottom. It touches the girl's heart directly.
"Is this your room?" Qi Ni murmured.
Shumei nodded wildly, the little pride on her face almost overflowing, "It's mine. My sister and brother each have a room. When you went upstairs just now, didn't you see the three doors opposite? The one in the middle is my sister's."
“I saw it…” but I just couldn’t believe it.
New house, new rooms, everything is new, which makes Qi Ni and the others extremely envious.
"This quilt... is it all new?"
"Yeah, I didn't have a quilt before. I either slept with grandma or mom and the others, so I definitely had to buy a new one."
"Are you using this cabinet alone?"
"Yes, my sisters all have them."
"The desk is also occupied by one person?"
"Yes, yes, there are two drawers here where I can put things." Lin Shumei showed them the two drawers under the desk and complained with a pout.
"It's just that I'm unlucky. I drew lots for the house on the north side. My sisters' house on the south side has a big balcony when you open the door."
But her eldest sister said that having a balcony is not always a good thing. Mom will definitely go to the balcony to dry things, and to get in, she has to go through their room to the south.
Little Lin Shumei, who has begun to have a sense of privacy, subconsciously thinks that the room on the south side is no better. At least the room on the north side is safe, and her mother will definitely not come in.
Qi Ni and the others were not interested in hearing anything about the north room being bad or something like that. All they could think about was that this huge room belonged to Lin Shumei alone.
So envious! So jealous!
Shumei knew her family was better off, so she didn't dare take advantage of the situation. "Isn't my third cousin already dating someone? I heard my uncle say the other day that he's going to rebuild a house. You can ask for a smaller one then. It's okay, but try to get a room each."
Qi Ni was two years older than them and probably understood more. She shook her head and said, "You didn't hear everything. My dad was talking about building a new one next door. If we really want to tear it down and rebuild, even if it's the cheapest red brick house, we won't be able to afford that much money."
Besides, they are girls, and except for the third sister, all of them are going to get married. It is impossible for the family to give them a whole room each. Even if they have the money, how many rooms should they build?
At least one more floor should be built than the Lin family's. Not to mention the question of whether his parents are willing to do so, if you tell others about it, most people will think it is unnecessary.
Lin Shumei scratched her head, not knowing how to comfort them. She could only say, "Then... you should study hard and build your own house when you earn money in the future."
Qi Ni chuckled, "Well, Third Sister said that as long as we study hard, everyone will have their own room in the future."
Lin Shuying was busy this morning. She first made the bed in her own room, and then went to help the youngest Lin Shumei to make it. After finishing, she came back to see her two younger brothers.
Lin Shugan's quilt was fine, but it was not very smooth. Lin Shuchao's quilt had long been twisted into a mess. It took him a long time just to separate the quilt and the quilt cover. Now it is finally sorted out. He heard the voices of Qi Ni and the others and came over to take a look.
"Qini, are you all here?"
"Sister Shuying!" Qi Ni ran over. "Can we go to your room and take a look? Shumei said you have a balcony there."
"Sure! Come on."
Around three o'clock in the afternoon, the hostesses of several families who were invited to dinner rushed over to help.
Today they planned to have five tables of wine, with 12 people at each table. The Lin family and the Ma family together could fill two tables. One table was for the masters and villagers who came to help build the house, and the other two tables were for a few families that were on good terms with Lin Guoqing's family.
For example, Xu Youqing's family, Wang Jingui's family, Cai Yinling's family, Chen Jinshui's family, Lin Guoqing also invited Lao Shi and Ye Juncai. Entering the house was a big event and everyone had to come.
When calling people, the whole family must be called, but no family is rich these days. Families with a large population, such as the Ma family, with more than a dozen mouths, would never have the whole family present unless they were my uncle's family. Everyone would consciously send fewer people, and only families with fewer people would have the whole family present together.
In the morning, Lin Yulan and Shen Chunhua had plucked the chickens and ducks, cleaned them, and sorted the internal organs. The other work mainly involved preparing some vegetables.
The table was set up in the yard, and the bowls and chopsticks were borrowed from one family to another. There was no need to worry about getting them mixed up and not being able to take them back, as both the stools and the bowls and chopsticks were engraved with the family's name.
When Ma Dexiang came, he took out a red envelope and forced it on Lin Guoqing.
"No, brother-in-law, what are you doing? What's the relationship between our families and why are you giving me a red envelope?!" Lin Guoqing refused and stuffed it back. Lin Yulan had been busy all day today, and he definitely couldn't accept this red envelope.
As for the other ones, he accepted them after pushing them three times, but he just forced the one from Ma Dexiang back.
"Come on, brother-in-law! Let's go in and have a drink! I bought some white wine today! It's in a bottle! We have to try it!"
Ye Juncai came with his son, daughter and wife, and also brought two bottles of wine.
"Guoqing, you can do it!" Ye Juncai stood at the gate of the yard, looking at the large area inside and outside that belonged to Lin Guoqing's family, and then thought about his own living room where he couldn't move around after putting a round table there during the New Year.
"Your life is much more comfortable than that of the people in the city!"
Lin Guoqing laughed heartily and punched Ye Juncai in the face. "Didn't you say you wanted to buy the house next door and then connect it to become a wealthy family? You'll be fine once you buy it!"
"That has to be sold to someone who's willing to sell it." Ye Juncai snorted as he looked at the new house. He turned to look at his wife, "Hey, wife, I think if we want to buy a house, we can't buy the one across the street. Our dormitory area is old. We have to buy a new house!"
Ye Juncai's wife rolled her eyes at him angrily, "You only have a few dollars in your pocket, how can you afford the new house?"
Then he immediately changed his expression and smiled amiably as he handed the two bottles of wine in Ye Juncai's hand to Lin Guoqing.
"National Day, happy housewarming, congratulations!
"Take these two bottles of Moutai. Old Ye has been hiding them for years, and I couldn't bear to drink them myself. I suddenly dug them out last night, and I knew they were for you!"
