After a few days, Song Ruan's family started building the house.
Because there was a piece of vacant land on the right side of her house, she simply demolished the wall on the right and connected it to the newly built house.
In this way, the newly built house will not need a lobby and kitchen, and can be built with four rooms and a bathroom.
Early in the morning, a dozen strong laborers arrived to help.
Because it is the slack season for farming, everyone is happy to come and help. After all, they can provide two meals, which can save a lot of food for the family.
The foundation of the newly built house is made of stone, the walls are made of blue bricks, and the roof is made of common blue tiles, all of which cost money.
But the beams, slats and rafters of the house were all saved from before, so they didn't cost any money. So the money was enough.
Once everyone arrived, they began to work enthusiastically.
However, the weather is becoming increasingly hot and humid.
"Uncle, aunt." After a while, Yang Bin also came over and handed the bamboo basket in his hand to Song's father and mother.
They looked inside and found a large piece of pork inside. This shocked Song's father and mother, and they refused to take it in no matter what they said.
"I also brought some meat from home, and this is for you." After saying this, Yang Bin put the meat directly in the kitchen and went to work silently.
The weather was too stuffy. By noon, when Song Ruan and the others had prepared the meal and asked the workers to come over to eat, everyone's clothes were soaked with sweat.
"Wow, Aunt Song, your family is so generous. The food is so delicious!" exclaimed a young man who came to help.
After he said this, the people behind him came forward curiously to see what dishes were available.
"Pork stewed with vermicelli, stir-fried pork with chili peppers, shredded pork with mixed mushrooms, fish, and vegetables..." The young men were all stunned.
The people queuing up behind couldn't help swallowing their saliva when they heard the name of the dish and smelled the aroma of the meat.
After the meal, everyone quickly found a place, sat down and started eating.
Song Ruan took two water cups and found Yang Bin, who was eating under a tree on the opposite side of the house.
"Here is tea. You've sweated so much. Do you want to drink some tea before eating?" Song Ruan handed him the cup of water. "How come you have time to come here today? Isn't the farm busy?"
Yang Bin took the tea, drank two sips, and indeed felt his body cooler.
"You can spare some time during the day. My parents-in-law are building a house, and it would be awkward if I didn't come."
"But you still have to sneak out at night, this is too tiring." Song Ruan frowned and muttered.
"I'm not tired." Yang Bin put down the water cup and looked up at her.
Her hair, wet with sweat, stuck to both sides of her cheeks, and her little face turned red from the heat, making her look so pitiful.
He couldn't help but blurt out: "The weather is stuffy, why don't you just stop cooking."
After saying it, I felt it was impossible. After all, no one builds a house without cooking.
"I don't know when this rule was established, but we still have to cook for the people who come to help. It's so tiring to cook for so many people. Can't we just pay them and let them go home to eat?"
Song Ruan listened to his chattering and couldn't help but squinted her eyes and giggled.
Seeing her heartless smile, Yang Bin gritted his teeth and said, "Do you think I'm nagging? You little rascal, who am I doing this for?"
"I don't dare, I don't dare." Song Ruan begged for mercy. She suppressed her laughter and secretly pulled his hand. "Don't worry about me. I'm not the only one cooking. I'm not tired. I'm not that delicate."
The two of them didn't say much and went back to their work.
For more than ten days, Yang Bin helped build the house during the day and worked in the mountains at night.
That day, when he came back from work, it was already the middle of the night.
The sky is filled with stars, casting tiny rays of light down, covering everything with a glimmer of loneliness and fatigue.
He hadn't taken a good look at her for a long time.
Yang Bin stood in the yard for a while, and finally decided to open the window of her room and climb in.
