Chapter 285: Start collective living mode
At the end of the discussion, everyone basically reached a consensus.
From then on, Jiang Goudan and his colleagues worked with Shen Qingqian and others, and they ate and lived together before the house was built.
In addition, the food in everyone's home must be centralized and managed and distributed in a unified manner, and everyone must work together to survive the winter until the harvest comes.
All matters involving materials and money must be clearly recorded and the accounts will be settled during the harvest next year.
With the addition of more than fifty people including Jiang Goudan, we have to arrange accommodation for them starting tonight.
Shengze and Lingyun naturally moved into the Shen family.
In the Shen family, men and women lived in separate rooms. The Wu, Lin, Liang, Shen Qingqian and several other children occupied two rooms, while Shen Xiao, Shen Jun and his brothers lived in one room with Sheng Ze Lingyun.
In other words, the Shen family and the Cheng family alone vacated two large houses.
The other families didn't occupy much room to begin with, and there was no way to make room, so they didn't move.
Fortunately, the Ma family moved away, and his house had three rooms, a total of five rooms, which was enough to barely accommodate Jiang Goudan and others.
"We'll just have to make do with this for one night. Tomorrow we'll start dismantling the house and we'll all have to live in tents. That'll be really crowded," Mrs. Wu sighed.
Jiang Goudan and others expressed their gratitude profusely. The women of the Lu family all had tears in their eyes and thanked Shen Qingqian and others profusely.
Even if they squeezed together, they could still find a place to shelter from the wind and rain, which was much better than their previous displacement.
And now they have hope. They have been allocated land and are about to build a new brick house. This is something they could never have imagined before!
Shen Qingqian was also quite emotional. Their current situation was a bit like being back on the road of exile.
Fortunately, we only lived together for less than a month, so it would pass if we just endured it.
The Shen family didn't want to be special and had no plans to set up a separate tent this time. However, they were no longer on the road and had nothing to do, so if they wanted to set up a more spacious tent, they could still do it.
It is expected that two large tents will be set up, one for men and one for women, which will be more convenient.
Starting from the next day, everyone became extremely busy.
"Hurry up, we have to set up the tent today. With this horrible weather, who knows when it will snow again?"
"We still don't have enough stuff. I'll take some people to the mountain to get some more."
"Then someone wait for me, I also need to get something warm for my children and wife at home."
The men could just lay some straw mats and hay, but women and children couldn't do that. Not only did they have to lay hay, it had to be thick, and they had to put a quilt on top.
The Shen family had quilts, but because there were not many, they were only enough for their own family members.
In fact, what was built this time was called a tent, but it looked a bit like a thatched hut.
The wood was brought back by Shengze and Lingyun who led people into the mountains. With them around, they could naturally bring back any kind of wood.
Shen Qingqian and others were quite skilled at setting up tents. In just one day, they had erected three tents of different sizes.
The reason why one more was added was because of a word from Shengze.
"The weather is cold, and the Sixth Miss knows medicine. If anyone is sick, they can ask her to see them. It would be more convenient to build a separate shed for the girl's family."
This was of course an excuse he made up. He could squeeze in with others, but he didn't want to see Shen Qingqian squeezed in with others.
There are now more than 200 of them in total, and there are no more than ten girls. This small shed is built just for the Shen sisters.
