......
"Has everyone been having fun and eating well recently?" That day, Yitiao gathered everyone together.
"Very good!" Chen Jiale immediately shouted back. He had originally planned to play for a week and then leave, but it was so much fun that he dragged on for another week.
After finally making up his mind to leave, one of his good friends actually asked him to stay. It was such a touching display of brotherly love that he decided to stay anyway...
The little tigers naturally agreed. If it weren't good, would they still think about coming every year to play? However, it seems that the beds at home are almost insufficient.
If his younger brother and his classmates come over to play, won't he be squeezed into a meat pie? It would be great if his parents and grandparents could live here too, and build a big house...
Looking at his friends who had agreed, he smiled and then led everyone up the mountain to work.
He didn't even let Jiutiao go. Originally, his mother had suggested asking some uncles and aunts on the island to help, but he felt that they could do it themselves.
Add in Jiu Tiao, a few little ones, San Hai, Da Wa, and Er Wa, and there are 16 of them. That's more than a whole squad in the army!
"So we are here to clean up this road? Then what do those uncles and aunts do?" Chen Jiale saw a lot of uncles and aunts coming to the yard in the morning, and he was a little curious at the time.
"They! They have big things to do!" One of them was holding a machete, full of energy.
"What's the matter?" Little Tiger asked curiously.
"Building houses." Er Tiao said he couldn't hide this from him. "Mom asked the production team to approve the land. Now that it's approved, we're going to build lots and lots of houses!"
"A lot, a lot, really?" Little Tiger was stunned. Could it be that Second Aunt heard his wish?
"Anyway, it's bigger than our house!" Rokujo said with a smile.
It is indeed bigger than the one at home, more than twice as big... It is still too early to develop tourism and so on. Cheng Zhenzhu was mainly thinking that there are not so many procedures to approve land now, so she took two small cans of snake wine to Aunt Xiuhua's house to inquire about the situation.
In principle, it was difficult to grant land because the children had not yet separated. However, because the management of homesteads was not strict at that time, basically, there was an application if there was a need.
Team leader Uncle Dajun told her that as long as she wrote an application for building a house on a homestead, had it signed and stamped by the production team leader, then went to the brigade to sign and stamp it and then submitted it to the commune, and paid a one-yuan handling fee, she would be approved to build a house on three mu of land.
Finally, after some time, because there was a lot of land, the higher-ups approved four-tenths of the land.
That is more than two hundred square meters.
Cheng Zhenzhu planned to build a two-story building first. Since there were so many people in her family, it wouldn't hurt to build more houses...
"Mr. Aiqing, do you mean that we will not only provide you with food, but also pay you fifty cents a day?" At this time, a simple and honest man could not help asking.
When I invited them, I only said that I would provide food and a modest salary, so I hesitated for a long time. After all, things are different now than they were a few years ago, and I can still afford to eat at home...
Later I thought about it and came.
But unexpectedly, just after we finished tea, Aiqing's family said they would pay us fifty cents a day. This was a pleasant surprise!
"Yes, the wage is fifty cents a day. If you are efficient, you can also take some food back..." Cheng Zhenzhu said to everyone.
The people she invited today are all people she has known for many years, and she feels that they are efficient and nice people.
Like Uncle Dali next door, several people from Chang Huaiying's husband's family, and Sister Yumei's family were all invited by her. As for Peng Aiqing's family, she did not invite any.
Peng Aiqing's sister-in-law, I don't know how many years she has been jealous of her...
Hearing this, the people who came to help build the house were all excited, smiling, and immediately started working. I don't know what's going on with Aiqing's family. They said they want to build a wooden house, so the foundation must be laid!
The weather in July was hot, and after working so hard, everyone was soon drenched in sweat.
You Yumei, Sun Daming and others were making mung bean soup and chatting in the kitchen.
"Sister Zhenzhu, why are you building a house all of a sudden? Are you preparing to get married? But that's not right, Yiyi is still studying in a military academy? He will join the army in the future..." You Yumei denied herself halfway through her words.
"It's better to be prepared. If my parents come over in the future, there will be enough place for them to stay. They even gave me money for this house..." Cheng Zhenzhu said with a smile.
Sun Daming nodded, "Indeed. And since you have many children, you'll need a lot of houses when you marry a wife. It's good to have some in reserve..."
"Sister Yumei, Sister Daming, I'll leave this to you first. I'll go and bring some mung bean soup." Cheng Zhenzhu got an enamel basin, scooped a full basin of boiling mung bean soup, then sprinkled a lot of white sugar and stirred it evenly.
Sun Daming: "Yes! When you mentioned them, I realized something was missing from the house today. Where were they doing?"
"I went to the mountain to tinker with it. I wanted to dig a way out." Cheng Zhenzhu said with a smile.
You Yumei: "Why don't you call us? We'll do it by the way."
Cheng Zhenzhu: "Aren't they going to build a house here? They were originally going to call for help, and then someone said they were going to do it..."
After hearing this, You Yumei and Sun Daming couldn't help but sigh that these kids were really great.
Amidst all the praise, Cheng Zhenzhu carried the enamel basin to the mountain and saw a dozen young men and women working hard...
Xiaolu immediately spotted her gentle and generous second aunt, who came bouncing over with her two pigtails in her hands. "Second aunt, what delicious food did you bring us?"
"Mung bean soup. Are you all tired? Take a break and have a bowl of mung bean soup." Cheng Zhenzhu brought the mung bean soup that had just been mixed with ice chips to a slightly flat ground and called on the boys and girls to come and drink it quickly.
"Ah!" After finishing one bowl, Chen Jiale felt completely chilled and his heart was soaring. "I have to have another bowl."
"Enough, enough!" Jiu Tiao still had the demeanor of a host. While talking to Chen Jiale, he poured mung bean soup for San Hai and Little Lion next to him. "Drink more, it will cool you down, mom said so!"
Hahahahahahahaha. Chen Jiale couldn't help but laugh heartily when he heard what the little kid said.
One of his brothers told him the truth, that they kept him because they wanted him to help with some work and command the team.
After all, it's hard to lead a team. There are big ones, small ones, and some who don't obey the rules...
