However, he took back the money Shen Mingxi had just stuffed into his pocket, thought for a moment, and said gently, "Xiaoxi, we didn't spend any cash on our homestead. Your third grandfather held a meeting with the brigade and agreed to settle the accounts together at the end of the year. We will start preparations tomorrow. With your money and the money your grandmother Mu lent us, we can almost build a mud house."

At this moment, the sun had already set behind the mountain.

However, they did not go into the house. Instead, they sat outside, using wormwood to fumigate mosquitoes and chatting together.

Even Goudan and Yaya were listening excitedly.

Shen Mingxi really wanted to say that we can build a brick house after she sells the purple Ganoderma lucidum.

But he didn't open his mouth, but looked at Shen Yu hesitantly as if he wanted to say something.

Shen Yu smiled slightly, "Xiaoxi, Dad knows what you are going to say, but now is not the right time. Put the things away first and sell them when the time is right. We can only do as much as we can at the moment, so according to our current situation, building a mud house is the best."

Shen Jiawen nodded in agreement. "Yes, although adobe houses are not as good as brick houses, we don't have the conditions for now. Even if we did, we can't build one. You should know that the news of our separation at noon today spread all over Kaoshan Village. Everyone said that we were too miserable. If we weren't so miserable, our family of seven wouldn't be able to live in this educated youth camp."

Shen Yu looked at his eldest son with appreciation and said, "Jiawen is right. If we build a house made of even half bricks and half mud, a large part of the villagers will turn their sympathy into hatred."

Goudan and Yaya looked at Shen Yu in confusion.

This, they don’t understand.

Then Shen Yu smiled and looked at his children, and said softly, "Don't worry, it's good enough to have an adobe house to shelter you from the wind and rain, and I have my own plans. Let alone the three of you, even Goudan and Yaya will go to school in the future. For your future, I promise that I will not only build the most beautiful house in Kaoshantun, but also find a place for you in the city."

In the city?

Even Shen Mingxi didn't expect that Shen Yu actually had such a plan. Including herself, since her rebirth, all she had wanted was to stay safely in Kaoshantun with her family, and she had never thought about going out.

I never thought that my father actually wanted to go to the city.

But then, Shen Mingxi felt that he was a little naive.

It is no exaggeration to say that my two older brothers and one younger brother are all excellent and they would never stay in Kaoshantun for the rest of their lives.

She fully supports all her father's decisions.

She could sell the purple Ganoderma lucidum immediately, and could get at least one thousand yuan, which was enough to build a five-room red brick and tile house in Kaoshantun.

However, there will be a lot of trouble later.

They didn't care about others, but they couldn't let Third Uncle and Aunt Su, who were sincerely helping them, think that Shen Yu was pretending to be poor and deceiving them.

After all, up to now, no one knows that they have the valuable Ganoderma lucidum in their hands.

It is better to proceed step by step than to hurt these people's feelings.

As the night deepened, Shen Yu had already arranged his work for the next few days.

Shen Qingshan and Shen Mingxi went to the mountains to pick mushrooms.

And he will start digging the foundation tomorrow with others.

The foundation of the main house and the house were almost all built by them.

Although at that time, Jiawen and Qingshan were only twelve years old.

So during this month, all seven members of the Shen family, including the youngest Yaya, had to be busy, and no one had an easy time.

But even so, everyone had a smile on their face, and they were full of strength and hope for the future.

Although the east and west rooms are large, they are not separated for the time being. Shen Mingxi is already a grown-up girl and it is impossible for her to live with her brothers. Even the Shen family's thatched house is separated separately.

So Chen Li and Shen Mingxi took Yaya to live in the east room.

But before they parted, Shen Yu took out two bracelets from his pocket and placed them on Chen Li's wrists, saying with guilt, "I'm going to get these two bracelets back for you."

Chen Li didn't know about this because she was busy tidying up things in the hut at the time, but Shen Mingxi heard it at the window.

She took the bracelet curiously and looked at it in the moonlight. The inside was very smooth, but after looking around, she didn't see the words "Chen Li".

Shen Mingxi asked in surprise, "Dad, you told my second uncle that these two bracelets were engraved with my mother's name, but why didn't I see it?"

Chen Li whispered, "My name isn't engraved on it."

Shen Yu frowned slightly, with a hint of sarcasm on his lips, "Xiaoxi, I was lying to your second uncle and the others."

Shen Mingxi's eyes widened in surprise. "Dad, if my second uncle had checked at that time, wouldn't everyone know that you were lying?"

Shen Yu said confidently, "Don't worry, your second uncle doesn't have the nerve to go for a checkup."

Shen Mingxi couldn't help but look at his father again.

Then he gave a thumbs up and said, "Dad, you are awesome."

Shen Yu should have been happy to be praised by his daughter, but he didn't feel happy at all.

The bracelet that Chen Li's mother-in-law gave to her has been worn on the wrist of that idiot Ji Daju for ten years.

He was confused and just watched.

So he is not great at all, he is a coward and useless, he is the stupidest one.

He feels sorry for everyone in his family!

So he really wants to live well and do everything he can to make up for the mistakes he has made.

Looking at his daughter's bright eyes, Shen Yu felt a little choked up in his throat. Then, he coughed and said seriously, "Xiaoxi, under the circumstances, Dad could only use this method, but lying is wrong, understand?"

Shen Mingxi laughed, "Dad, I understand."

Shen Yu waved his hand pretending to be nonchalant, "Okay, there are more and more mosquitoes outside, and you have to get up early tomorrow, so go and rest."

Shen Mingxi blinked, picked up Yaya, and walked quickly into the east room.

Only Shen Yu and Chen Li were left in the yard.

Chen Li was holding two silver bracelets in her hands. The moonlight was a little cold at this time. Under the moonlight, the surface of the silver bracelets was glowing with a faint silver light.

She lowered her head slightly, tears falling one by one.

She didn't mean to blame Shen Yu at all.

But she just felt very sad.

This matter is not Shen Yu's fault at all, it's her own uselessness. This is the dowry given to her by her own mother. Why has it been worn on that woman's wrist for so many years? And she didn't dare to fight for it or ask for it. In the final analysis, it was all because of her own cowardice and uselessness.

Under the moonlight, Shen Yu's tall figure was cast into a dark shadow.

The handsome face appears and disappears in the night.
