Earthen bricks are easy to make, as the team members can help make the earthen bricks. Green bricks need to be ordered separately, and the key is that they are very expensive!
Why did the Aiqing family suddenly think of building a house?
"So I want Uncle Dajun to help talk it over. Uncle Dajun is more easy to get along with at the commune. Aunt Xiuhua, I think since we are going to build it, we should build it all at once. We can live here for a few more years so that we don't have to go through the trouble again."
That's the truth...but if we do this, wouldn't it be like his army wasting their favor? Chen Xiuhua shook her head in her heart.
She accepted a can of brown sugar, which belonged to Comrade Gu. Dajun from his family went to the commune for this matter, and he might have to give him a pack of cigarettes and two ounces of wine.
It's not worth it, it's absolutely not worth it. I might as well let the army help me find a good job...
Cheng Zhenzhu saw through Aunt Xiuhua's thoughts and played the emotional card. "Aunt Xiuhua, I didn't actually rebuild the house. I can live in it anyway, so why would I waste the money?"
Chen Xiuhua nodded. Yeah, building two more rooms would require more bricks, which would be incredibly expensive.
"...but next year my parents, sister, and brother are all coming over, and these two little houses definitely won't be enough for them. Most importantly, I'm worried they'll feel bad seeing me living in this little mud-brick house.
I haven’t been able to be with them these years, and instead they have to worry about me. I feel really bad…” Cheng Zhenzhu started to cry as she spoke.
"So that's how it is. So, the house does need to be built." Chen Xiuhua nodded and consoled him, "Don't be too sad, Aiqing family. Just invite them over next year and spend some quality time with them..."
Aiqing's family is wealthy, and they'd definitely feel bad for their daughter living in this dark little house. It's nice to have such filial piety...
"It's okay. I'll ask your uncle Dajun to tell the commune when I get back. It just so happens that the educated youth camp is going to build a house, so I'll help you get a permit. But there aren't many blue bricks, so I'm sure they can't approve too many..."
Aiqing's family gave her face, and she was a good and filial child, so she helped. A few bricks, Dajun still had a say.
"Aunt Xiuhua, thank you so much. I'll give you as much as you can." Cheng Zhenzhu thanked her sincerely. "Aunt, I won't let Uncle Dajun work in vain. I have some wine at home. You can bring it back for Uncle Dajun to try."
Wine! This is Dajun's favorite. However, "No, no, why are you being so formal? Your uncle Dajun has a good relationship with the commune. It's just a personal favor...Your life is not easy, keep the things for yourself..." Chen Xiuhua waved her hand vigorously to refuse.
"Aunt Xiuhua, I'm not being polite to you. Aiqing's gone, and no one's drinking this wine. Besides, isn't Uncle Dajun going to the commune to make some arrangements? Aunt Xiuhua is so kind to help me, how can I let her suffer any loss?"
"Leave it for your father and your brother to drink..."
Oh, she felt embarrassed when Ai Qingjia said that. She felt really relieved that she was so sensible.
"Let's talk about that when they come next year. Auntie, wait for me for a moment." Cheng Zhenzhu returned to the house and quickly brought a pot of wine.
This was packaged last time, about two kilograms.
Chen Xiuhua felt the heavy weight in her hand and was very surprised, "There are so many left?"
Cheng Zhenzhu smiled, but then a hint of bitterness appeared on her face. "Aiqing has always been reluctant to drink... I'll leave the house matter to you, Auntie."
"Okay, I'll let your Uncle Dajun handle this matter well and try to get as many blue bricks as possible..."
Gu Xixi came out after making the bed and saw Aunt Xiuhua leaving with a bottle of wine and a smile on her face. It seemed that Sister Cheng had also asked Aunt Xiuhua to do something for her. "Sister Cheng, I've made the bed. I'll go to the meeting first."
"good."
Peng San Tiao blinked as he saw the strange sister leave.
"San Tiao, our family is going to build a new house soon. Are you happy?"
Peng San Tiao nodded, then quickly shook his head. "Sleeping with Mom."
"Well, sleep with mom. When the time comes, we'll have two big beds at home so we can sleep comfortably."
"Big one..." Peng Sandiao gestured happily for a while, then went downstairs to play with his toys.
Cheng Zhenzhu held Liu Tiao in her arms and continued playing in the yard. The little guy loved to be held in her arms and to step on her legs.
"Oh~" Liu Tiao smiled and danced with joy.
Cheng Zhenzhu teased Liu Tiao and couldn't help but feel a little emotional. She didn't expect the heroine to come to live in her house after all the twists and turns...
"Mom, I'm back!" Peng Yitiao came back running.
When he came back yesterday, there were cookies and apples waiting for him.
He wondered what delicious food would be waiting for him today. Peng Yitiao rubbed his hands in anticipation.
Liu Tiao, who had just woken up, heard Peng Yitiao's voice, sat in Cheng Zhenzhu's arms, stretched his neck and looked around.
"Mom?" Peng Yitiao looked at the unfamiliar faces in the yard and was stunned.
"This is Sister Xixi. She will stay at our house for a while." Cheng Zhenzhu introduced her.
"Sister Xixi." Peng Yitiao called out politely, becoming even more confused.
"Little boy Yitiao looks so energetic." Gu Xixi glanced at the curious little baby and couldn't help but touch Peng Yitiao's head.
Ha, this one is not shy, and the second one is not shy either. They even called me sister sweetly several times.
Peng Yitiao lowered his head and let the strange sister touch him, his little face looking extremely depressed.
It seems there is no delicious food today, and there will be no delicious food tomorrow.
Mom said those delicious things are secrets...
