Chapter 52



Lin Wan stopped and looked at Du Shanshan, "I'm planning to build another house. I wonder if the village chief would agree. I'm going to ask him."

When Du Shanshan heard about building another house, her eyes lit up immediately. Seeing how many people lived together, she was afraid that she would have to stay in this country for a while. She did have this idea, but she didn't make the decision as quickly as Lin Wan.

"Lin Wan, wait a minute, I'll go with you." Du Shanshan quickly ran back to the room to get her shoulder bag, only to find that her things were not suitable for carrying, and the outer packaging alone would not be enough.

놙땣 followed 눕 again with empty hands, and followed Lin 냭wan somewhat embarrassedly.

Not far from the educated youth site, Du Shanshan grabbed Lin Wanwan's arm and said, "Slow down, there are some potholes on this road."

"Lin Zhiqing, let me help you carry it." Du Shanshan said as she reached out to Lin Wanwan's bulging cloth bag.

Lin Wan looked at the enthusiastic Du Shanshan with a smile on her face. "No need, thank you for your kindness."

Du Shanshan felt a little embarrassed when Lin Wan looked at her and withdrew her hand.

Watching the two of them leave the educated youth point, Ye Jibai looked at the slender figure leaving, feeling a little worried.

Although Xu Xiaohong lowered her eyebrows, she immediately noticed that Ye Jibai was distracted and glanced at the door.

I glanced sideways and saw Lin Zhiqing and Du Zhiqing leaving. What did Ye Zhiqing mean to Lin Zhiqing?

As for Du Shanshan and Xu Xiaohong, he didn't take them seriously. He didn't know what happened to that guy, he looked darker and thinner than himself, and looked like a refugee.

Even if his facial features were decent, they were overshadowed by his dark, thin and skinny appearance.

Lin Wan knocked on the door of Village Chief Li's courtyard.

"Who is it?" Aunt Li was washing dishes in the yard when she heard a knock on the door.

"We are the new educated youth. Is the village chief at home?" Lin Wan asked in a low voice.

When the village head's wife heard that it was a new educated youth, she quickly wiped her wet hands on her apron and went to open the gate.

"Here I am, here I am."

Auntie Li's eyes lit up when she saw the fair and pretty educated youth in front of her.

"Hello, auntie. My last name is Lin Wan. This is also a new educated youth named Du Shanshan. Let's come to see Village Chief Li and you."

Lin Wan followed the village chief's wife into the house.

"Okay, hey...old man, the new educated youths Lin and Du are here."

After entering the house, Lin Wan was asked to sit on a stool.

"Auntie Li, these are some food I brought for you and the village chief. Please accept them." Lin Wan opened the cloth bag and put the things on the table.

Du Shanshan's face turned ugly when she heard Lin Wan's words. She had come along, and although she didn't bring anything, they had a good relationship. Why didn't Lin Wan cover up for her?

I came here empty-handed. How will the village chief look at me in the future?

Zheng Wenxiu was shocked when she saw that a young educated youth had sent so many gifts. She thought that this was a favor to her son.

Li Changgui tapped the pipe in his hand twice and glanced at his wife.

Zheng Wenxiu quickly closed the doors of the inner and outer rooms to prevent anyone from seeing anything.

"Is Lin the educated youth here because of the ox cart incident today?" Li Changgui saw that all these things were taken by Lin the educated youth.

"Village chief, I didn't come here because of her. Since I came to Dongsheng Village, I am a member of the village. I believe that the village chief and the captain will handle this matter properly.

The reason I came to visit today is because when I came to Dongsheng Village, I wanted to visit the village chief and his aunt.

After all, I am still young, and I may do many things wrongly and offend others. I hope my uncle and aunt will be more tolerant in the future.

I just miss the house.”

Lin Wan finished his polite words and got straight to the point.

Li Changgui took a puff of his cigarette, not expecting Lin Wanwan to actually think of the house. Aunt Li enthusiastically made two cups of sugar water and brought them over.

"Lin Zhiqing, building a house is no small matter. This house is not cheap. And it is not easy to get a residential land. Even if you agree, the elders in the village will not agree.

Besides, the educated youth camps are also available for accommodation, so why do you want to build your own house?"

"Uncle Li, do you want to build a house in the backyard of the educated youth camp? This person has a light sleeper posture. Although the educated youth camp can accommodate you, you also know that it is difficult for the female educated youth to turn over because there are so many people here.

Move in, and everyone will have more space. After a day's work, everyone wants to have a good sleep."

Lin Wan did not mention the feud with the old educated youth because of his own reasons.

This made Du Shanshan couldn't help but look at Lin Wan deeply. If it were her, she would definitely use this matter as an excuse.

"A backyard for the educated youth's site, that's fine. What kind of house do you want to build?" Village chief Li looked at the educated youth Lin with an extraordinary demeanor.

Zhao Chunhua's family came to find me about what happened this morning. They originally wanted to wait until the educated youth came back in the evening to deal with the problem of this new educated youth causing trouble.

I didn't expect that my cousin Dasheng would come back and tell me the whole story.

I just went to Accountant Li's house with the captain and explained the matter clearly.

"Uncle Li, just build a brick-and-soil house like the ones in the educated youth camps now. After all, they are going to the countryside to receive re-education, so we don't want to be too extravagant and wasteful."

Lin Wan didn't have high requirements. He just wanted to live in a mud house. The advantages of a mud house were that it was warm in winter and cool in summer, and it was a good place to live.

"How big do you want to build it?" Li Changgui quite liked the way this educated youth Lin spoke. He was straightforward and didn't beat around the bush.

"Uncle Li, I want to build a one-and-a-half-room house, similar to the current houses for female educated youth, but a little smaller, so that we can save some firewood for heating in winter, and it will be enough for one person to live in."

Lin Wan thinks that the house does not need to be big, otherwise it would waste firewood for heating in winter. Anyway, it is his own space, so he can put the frequently used items outside and keep the seldom used items inside.

"Wouldn't it be better to make it a little more spacious?" Li Changgui glanced at Lin Wan, and then glanced at Du Zhiqing who came with Lin Wan.

"No, I live in a two-meter-wide outer room and a two-meter-wide kang. I just need to put a kang cabinet for you to live in. After a long time, it is inevitable that you will have conflicts. When I came here, I hope to be in a good condition to work and build a new countryside.

The house built by Li Shujian will be returned to the village when he leaves in the future, but he has one requirement: no matter how many people come to the educated youth site in the future and whether there is enough space, the house built by him will not be allowed to be occupied by others. "

Lin Wan looked at Village Chief Li and said, if we let someone else move in, what would be the point of moving in myself.

"Of course, some families in the village have earthen bricks. As for red bricks, you can ask your nephew to go to the brickyard to get them for you. If you want to build a house of the size you want, the total cost will be between 40 and 50 yuan.

As for the people who built the house, we found six skilled men from the village to build the house in the few days before the autumn harvest, so that they could do it when they were not busy. The labor cost was 50 cents per person per day.
