Zhao was a little surprised. "Hey, why did you come back with such a big pot?"
Little Bell ran over holding a box of silver.
"Grandma, look! This is the reward money I brought back! I bought that big iron pot, and there's another one you can pick up in two days.
This is the remaining silver, grandma, please keep it. We will use this money to build our house! Little Bell is super rich!
Little Bell is like a child seeking favor, with her belly sticking out and looking like she is waiting for praise.
The Lin family themselves knew what was going on, but the villagers who were around to help didn't quite understand and were very curious.
"Hey, what's this reward? I bought a big iron pot and there's still some left. It looks like a lot!"
"But, Little Bell is still so young, and he can earn money?"
Everyone was speculating excitedly, and soon the speculation became extremely far-fetched.
Zhao didn't want to be too ostentatious, but seeing Xiao Lingling looking like she was waiting for praise, she couldn't help feeling helpless.
"Nothing much! It's just that a while ago, a group of child traffickers appeared in our county. You should have heard about this, right?"
Although everyone lives in the village, Shuanghe Village is not far from the town and the city. Some families even work in the city, so they have naturally heard of it.
Zhao explained, "We also learned this news by chance. Xiao Lingdang and the county magistrate were also familiar with the case of treating the county magistrate's wife before.
So they came up with a plan. Little Bell pretended to be stolen yesterday and helped the county magistrate find the hideout of the human traffickers and catch them.
Look, this is the reward from the human trafficker! I got it back today."
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone looked at Xiao Lingling with a different look.
"Oh my god! Little Bell is so amazing! I heard that the bounty list has a reward of 100 taels of silver!"
"Ah? So much? My God, I've never seen so much money in my life! Little Bell is so brave!"
"Who said it wasn't? I was wondering why your family was so busy yesterday. So this is what happened. Fortunately, nothing happened. This little Lingling is really lucky. She can earn so much money at such a young age."
A group of people surrounded Xiao Lingdang, asking about what happened yesterday. They praised her while asking, which made Xiao Lingdang feel very proud.
But she knew what she could say and what she couldn't say.
As she spoke, she winked at her grandmother.
Zhao immediately guessed the reason.
This little granddaughter is really shrewd. She deliberately brought this matter up.
The Lin family previously claimed that they would be out of money after building the house. However, they were not really broke and were planning to send their grandchildren to school.
A few days ago, she was worried about not having a normal source of income. Xiao Lingling must have heard it and brought up the matter of the reward money.
Now, the Lin family doesn’t have to be so hesitant when spending money.
However, Xiao Lingling was so happy when she spoke that she didn't notice that a pair of dark eyes were looking at her not far away.
Little Lingling was a little annoyed by the questions, so she squeezed out of the crowd with a smile.
“My dear aunts and uncles, if I am truly blessed, I will share it with our village.
I believe our village will have good weather and a good harvest this year!"
For ordinary people, there is no more realistic wish than this.
For a time, everyone's love for the little bell reached its peak.
Of course, it’s not in vain that they like her, because what Little Bell says always comes true.
In the blink of an eye, more than a month has passed.
With the help of all the villagers, three large houses have been firmly established at the outermost edge of Shuanghe Village.
It is simply the most eye-catching scenery in the entire village.
For more than a month, everyone was busy. After planting all the rice and wheat, the men went up the mountain to cut trees to make furniture.
The women tore new cloth to make clothes and bedding, and even the vegetable fields were tidied up and planted with vegetable seeds in an orderly manner. The sprouts of many vegetables had already grown very tall.
Now, the new house has been built and the furniture has been moved in one after another, and only the last item is left!
That's the housewarming party~~~~
Today's housewarming party has already been discussed with all the villagers, and everyone is invited to come, including the part about settling down.
So, a lot of people came to help early in the morning.
Those who helped with cooking included Luo Tao, the two daughters-in-law of the village chief, and the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law of Aunt Cui from next door to Su He's family.
Everyone was busy processing various ingredients, talking and laughing, it was very lively.
Many villagers also brought tables, chairs and benches from their homes and arranged them neatly outside.
Little Bell was not in a hurry, because the things that needed her help had been secretly done yesterday.
For example, some fresh apples and pears, and she also went up the mountain with her brothers to catch several fish.
The meat used for the housewarming party was sent by Dabai and Jinbei. There was a fresh wild deer, a wild boar, and five or six pheasants and rabbits, which was more than enough for the housewarming party.
So, her task today was to treat the children with candy with her brothers.
There are many people and children in Shuanghe Village. Xiao Lingdang is the youngest among them, but he is the most popular among his brothers.
Because of what?
Because she is the richest!
Also because she has the most sugar!
Shuanghe Village is not rich, and not many families can afford to buy sugar.
So for these kids, they will naturally play with whoever can afford candy!
In addition, Xiaobai has grown a lot in the past month. She follows Xiaolingdang happily and asks who dares to bully her?
Now Xiao Lingling is simply the bully of Shuanghe Village!
The little grandson of the village chief loved to play with little bells and came close to her.
"Little Bell Sister, your house is so beautiful! It's the most beautiful house I've ever seen!"
Little Bell nodded proudly, "Of course! I contributed a lot to this!"
After Xiao Lingdang discussed it with Grandpa He, they dug a small ditch that circled their home.
The canal first comes in from the backyard wall, passing through the backyard medicinal garden, flower bed, front yard flower garden, and kitchen.
Then there are the vegetable fields, laundry pool, stables and lotus pond, and finally it connects back to the river through the backyard, forming a complete loop.
Basically, the location where this small canal flows can cover all the water used in the home.
No matter what you want to do, just walk out the door or scoop up fresh water from the canal.
However, He Hongsheng took great pains to ensure that the water could circulate continuously.
The height of each canal has been adjusted several times before finally achieving the current effect.
Moreover, some places are open channels and some places are underground channels, which makes water use convenient and ensures safety.
So, this house now is Xiao Lingling’s treasure.
