Chapter 9 Moving and Building a Wooden House
Song Chuman smiled and said, "Our family's life will definitely get better and better in the future."
Song Hexiu also smiled and said, "Aman is right."
Song Chuhuai said excitedly: "Then let's move quickly."
"good."
Song Hexiu saw that everyone in the family had packed up their things, leaving only the bed, boxes, wooden tables and chairs.
He asked his family to wait at home for a while, and when he came back, he was followed by several strong men.
Song Hexiu is a scholar with a gentle temperament. He will help anyone who asks him for help, and he has several good friends with him.
Those families were also strongly opposed to using children for sacrifice at the beginning.
But in the end, the arm is no match for the thigh, and the words carry no weight.
One of the strong men was called Yang Qingrui, the eldest son of the Yang family. He had also heard on the way that the Song family had split up, so he asked, "Brother Song, where are you planning to move to?"
Song Hexiu told the truth.
Hearing that he was actually going to move to the cave, the strong men were all shocked.
Yang Qingrui hurriedly said, "Brother Song, how can we go to the cave? It's freezing outside, and we don't know when it will snow. There are also wild animals lurking around the cave, so it's not suitable for people to live in."
Song Hexiu sighed, "I have no choice. We only got a few hundred copper coins when we split up the family business. It's not enough to do anything. I'll just live there for now."
Yang Qingrui glanced disapprovingly at the people staring at them from a distance, and spoke up for his friend, "Your parents are too much. One foot almost killed A Man, and the next foot separated you."
Yang Qingrui's younger brother, Yang Qingli, also glared at the people from the second and third houses. "They are simply ungrateful. It's a shame that you, Brother Song, were so kind to them before."
Song Hexiu said, "Let bygones be bygones. Besides lifting the furniture, I'd like to ask you for another favor."
Yang Qingrui said, "Brother Song, don't be polite. Just tell me what you want to say."
"Okay." Song Hexiu said a little uncomfortably, "My wife is pregnant and the child is young. If I were alone, living in the cave would be fine, but I'm afraid they can't bear it. I want to build a small wooden house in the cave. It doesn't have to be too big, just enough for the four of us to sleep at night. Otherwise, if it really snows, or if I'm not with them during the day and wild animals really come down the mountain, they will have a place to take shelter."
Yang Qingrui thought it was no big deal, a small wooden house could be built in a day.
He agreed without hesitation, and the other strong men had no objection.
Song Hexiu breathed a sigh of relief and, together with the strong men, emptied all the things in the house where he used to live.
Many of the fishing boats in Qingyu Village are made by the fishermen themselves, and they often have to repair the boats themselves.
Therefore, most of the strong men here are good at carpentry, and some of them even have a lot of ready-made wood at home.
They were also very generous and directly moved the wood from their home for Song Hexiu to use.
In order to speed up the process, Song Chuman and Song Chuhuai, brother and sister, also tried their best to help.
However, they were weak, and Song Hexiu was worried about hurting them, so he just asked them to clean up the debris in the cave.
For example, small stones, leaves blown in by the wind, etc.
Because they were building the simplest rectangular wooden house and many materials were readily available, it only took them more than an hour to build the wooden house that Song Hexiu mentioned.
After all, it was built in a hurry, so there were still some leaks in some places, but Song Chuman and her brother blocked them all from the outside with mud.
