Chapter 370 New Yard



When standing outside and looking at it, Su Ruanruan felt that the yard was very dilapidated.

But after entering, the degree of dilapidation inside was far beyond Su Ruanruan's expectations.

The yard is an ordinary farmyard with an upper house and east and west wing rooms.

The courtyard is also quite large, it looks to be about 80 or 90 square meters.

It will be very convenient to raise chickens, grow vegetables, etc. at that time.

But at this time, the yard was full of weeds half a person's height, and the road was completely invisible.

Not only that, the doors and windows of all the houses were missing. Through the dark doors and windows, you could see that they were full of spider webs.

The roof even leaked in some places, and the sunlight shone into the house through the leaks.

Everyone stood at the gate of the courtyard, looking at the scene in front of them, all silent.

Fu Wenjing was the first to speak.

"I haven't been here. I heard that no one has lived here for a long time and it's a bit run-down. I didn't expect it to be this run-down."

Fu Chunshan looked at the whole yard with great interest, with his hands behind his back, "It's okay, it's okay, it doesn't matter if it's a little broken, just clean it up."

Wang Maoni also reacted at this time, "Your father is right. It doesn't matter if it's a little shabby. This yard is quite big and there are many rooms. As long as we clean it up, we can live in it."

Having said that, it is not an easy task to make this yard habitable.

The first thing to do is to weed.

Otherwise, there would be no place to step, let alone clean the house.

Before they came, they did not expect the yard to be so dilapidated and overgrown with weeds, so they did not bring any farm tools.

After a brief discussion, Fu Wenjing rode his bike back to the compound to get a hoe, sickle, shovel and spade.

The people who stayed behind, except the quadruplets, did not just sit there and wait, but started working immediately with eager hands.

For people who are used to doing farm work, pulling weeds is no big deal.

When Fu Wenjing came back, they had already cleared a small patch of weeds.

Of course, the speed of hands cannot match that of farm tools.

With the tools, the speed increased dramatically.

Plus, they were all strong laborers, so it only took them half an hour to cut all the weeds in the yard.

The cut weeds were piled in the corner of the yard. The weather was hot now and it wouldn't take long for the weeds to be dried and could be used as kindling.

This is what life is like at that time. Every blade of grass, every needle and thread has their own use and nothing is wasted.

Without weeds, the whole yard looks bigger.

The yard is just ordinary land, and you can turn over the roots of all the weeds.

Fu Chunshan was happy when he saw the land. "I'll pick up some stones and pave a few paths. I'll use the rest of the land to grow vegetables."

"We also need to fence off a piece of land for raising chickens," Wang Maoni added. "We also need a place to hang clothes, otherwise there won't even be a place to sit."

Listening to the two of them discussing the planning of the yard, Su Ruanruan also laughed.

It is said that a nest of gold or silver is not as good as your own doghouse. Not only young people have such thoughts, but old people will also have such thoughts.

For Fu Chunshan and Wang Maoni, the place where they live now is Su Runrun and Fu Wenjing's home, not their home.

Although the yard in front of them is dilapidated, it is their real home.

It is a very happy thing to build your home into what you imagined with your own hands.

Without the weeds in the yard, it is much easier to get into the house.

The floor of the house is also made of land and there are no bricks. That means the lighting in the house is not very good, so only sporadic weeds grow there, making it relatively easy to clean.

Besides, there is no furniture in the house at all. Once the scattered weeds are removed and the doors and windows are repaired, it can be lived in.

Fu Chunshan checked the kangs in several rooms and found that none of them were broken. He saved a lot of money and his old face was full of smiles.

"Seventh Brother, didn't you go to the county town and bring back some broken furniture last time?

Where did you get it? I'll get some tomorrow so I don't have to make furniture anymore.

If we can get some wooden boards, we can use them to make doors and windows.”

Although there are many trees in the mountains these days, they are all collectively owned and it is impossible for people to cut them down at will.

If you want to cut down trees, you need someone from the team.

If someone cuts down trees without permission, he is fleecing the collective.

Fu Chunshan used to be a team leader and was very familiar with these processes. He knew that it was difficult to cut down trees to make new doors and windows, so he could only start with old furniture.

Fu Wenjing also understood these principles and nodded. "I have already asked for leave from the team. I don't need to go there this afternoon. I will ride my bike to the county town and bring some back later."

Fu Siwa and Fu Wuwa were the first to speak.

"Uncle Qi, we are stronger, we will go with you."

Fu Wenjing did not refuse when he heard this, and agreed directly, "Okay, you guys come with me."

Fu Chunshan waved his hand and said, "If you want to go, don't wait any longer. Go now."

It can be seen that Fu Chunshan was really anxious, so Fu Wenjing simply agreed and left with Fu Siwa and Fu Wuwa on two tricycles.

After they left, the rest of the people were not idle either.

Wang Maoni asked Su Ruanruan to lead the quadruplets to the yard, while she, Fu Siya and Fu Chunshan cleaned up all the spider webs on the walls and roof.

After cleaning the walls, he cleared away the dirt on the kang and finally swept the floor.

After all this cleaning, although the house is still the house without doors and windows, it looks much cleaner overall.

Wang Maoni walked around the yard and didn't see a well. She frowned and said, "There's no well in this yard. Where can I get water? I'll go out and ask."

Su Ruanruan subconsciously wanted to stop Wang Maoni and ask her to wait until Fu Wenjing came back before asking.

But before Su Runrun had time to speak, Wang Maoni had already strode out of the yard.

Looking at Wang Maoni's departing back, Su Runrun could only swallow back the words that were on the tip of her tongue.

Never mind, Wang Maoni is a big shot in the community, so it’s not a big problem.

The fact was just as Su Ruanruan thought. Wang Maoni came back after a few minutes, but she did not come back alone.

Next to Wang Maoni was an older lady who was about the same age as her.

The two people talked as they walked, with smiles on their faces.

After entering the yard, Wang Maoni pointed at the aunt next to her and introduced her to Su Ruanruan, "Ruanruan, this is your aunt Zhao, she lives in the yard on our left, we will be neighbors from now on.

Sister Zhao, this is my daughter-in-law, her name is Ruanruan."
