In the past few days, the Zhao family has been living in anticipation and joy every day.
During this period, an interesting thing happened. One day, Zhao Taohua was sleeping soundly when suddenly Mrs. Zhao rushed in and shouted, "Oh no! Your father is missing."
"What? My dad is not a virgin, how can he be lost?"
"That's right. He was fine before going to bed, but disappeared in the middle of the night. Could he have been captured by a monster?"
Sui Anqiu: "Monsters only catch children, why would they catch my grandfather? He can't chew it up."
"Shall we go check out the back?"
Zhao Taohua probably guessed something. Sure enough, on the foundation at the back, Old Man Zhao was lying in the middle, looking at the starry sky and muttering to himself.
"From now on, this is my house, a house with blue bricks and big tiles. God, if this is a dream, please don't let me wake up."
"Dad, what are you doing?"
The Zhao family came over soon. Seeing the old man happily looking at the stars, they also lay down to look at them. You know what, there was no light pollution in ancient times, and the starry sky was so beautiful.
"Old man, what are you doing in the middle of the night? I think you've been captured by a monster."
"Old lady, I feel happy."
"Hahaha……"
A few days later, the roof was officially erected and the main beams were put up. This became a grand event in the village, and even families who did not help would come and take a look.
Lin Yitou and his apprentices were extremely capable and built the house in just a few days, and then they laid the floor and hung the trees.
It has to be said that this ancient house did not have such strict sewage and electrical problems, so the progress could be said to be very fast.
After the back house was completed and the furniture was not yet made, the Zhao family had already chosen a day, packed up their things and moved into the new house in the back, and the adobe house in the front was officially demolished.
After the demolition, an independent courtyard with a large house will be built.
Although the Zhao family is prosperous, Zhao Taohua has been very busy these days. She cooks as soon as she opens her eyes, cooking for her helper and her husband.
Even Sui'an was forced to run around.
Now, the wait has finally come to an end. The front cross-courtyard is much simpler than the back one. It was completely completed in just ten days.
As for the remaining detailed work, I have learned a lot from watching and working on the pillars in the house these days, and I can complete it myself.
The day before the Zhao family had already made preparations and held a housewarming party in the new tile-roofed house, several guests unexpectedly came to the Zhao family.
However, he was a guest that the Zhao family didn't like very much.
Old Mrs. Zhao’s family’s surname is Liu.
I live in Shanghe Village, which is quite far from Hexi Village, so I got the news the latest.
But to be honest, Mrs. Zhao is already so old, and the Zhao family was so poor in the past few years that even dogs disliked them. Many relatives were afraid to borrow food from them and have cut off ties with the Zhao family.
Especially Mrs. Zhao's parents' family. They suffered a great hardship that year and encountered a famine. They could not even make ends meet. Mrs. Zhao walked dozens of miles back to her parents' home to borrow money, but she didn't borrow a single cent.
He was also worried that the several pillars in the family would starve to death, so he had to walk over mountains and rivers to come back. He stuffed whatever he saw edible on the way, and walked with his head held high when it rained. He was so tired that he fainted as soon as he entered the house. At that time, the eldest pillar was an adult, and he and the second pillar went home to take care of their younger brother. Zhao Taohua had just gotten married.
Old Man Zhao went out to work and also took a part-time job begging along the way.
