Chapter 31: Finally Separated



After she finished speaking, the room fell silent.

The captain and several witnesses shook their heads in their hearts.

I feel that Old Han and Yang Lanhua have no shame at all, and their children are also very disrespectful.

Especially this little girl, with such a character, who would dare to marry her in the future?

And the second son's wife, who looked gentle and kind, also followed her mother-in-law and sister-in-law to bully the eldest sister-in-law. It really shows that you can't judge a person by his appearance.

After a while, Han Zhenyu said, "Captain, please write."

"good."

Han Hongbing nodded, picked up a pen and paper and wrote in triplicate.

Han Zhenyu asked all members of the Han family to sign and put their fingerprints on the document.

The witnesses present also signed their names.

Han Baoguo took one copy, one copy was given to Han Zhenyu, and the other copy was kept at the brigade headquarters.

When Han Zhenyu sent the captain out, he apologized and said, "The captain and the two uncles have been busy until now and haven't been able to treat you to a meal. When I finish building the house, I will invite you over to have some fun."

Sun Quan laughed and said, "Okay, we'll go after you finish building the house."

Han Youlai asked him, "Zhenyu, when are you going to build the house?"

"I'm going on a long trip in a couple of days. I had planned to build the house when I came back, but who knew this would happen? I'm going to go to my grandpa's place tomorrow and ask my uncle, my grandpa, and my eldest uncle to come and help build it first." Han Zhenyu said.

Han Youlai nodded and said, "We have to build it sooner, otherwise we won't be able to move in before winter. I still have some bricks and wood. If you need them, ask Han Lei to bring them to you."

"I have done a lot this year, so let's bring it over too." Sun Quan also said.

Han Zhenyu said gratefully: "Thank you both uncles. I was planning to ask Sun Dahan to help me make some, but it's too late now. So I'll use yours first and we'll pay together later."

"What's the point of talking about money? Just use it."

Sun Quan asked again: "How many rooms do you want to build? Adding the yard, I'm afraid these are not enough. How about I go to the village and ask for you?"

Han Zhenyu thought for a moment and said, "Uncle, don't worry. I'll go to the city tomorrow to see if I can get some bricks back."

"Hey, Zhenyu, you are really capable. You actually have this method?"

Sun Quan was very surprised. Although he knew that Han Zhenyu was not as idle as the villagers said, he did not expect that he had such a wide range of connections. He could even get red bricks.

Han Youming and the team leader knew Han Zhenyu a little better, so they were not surprised when they heard him say that he was going to get some bricks.

Han Zhenyu smiled modestly, "Uncle, I just know someone who is in charge of these things, but I don't know if he can get it done."

When Sun Quan heard him say this, he knew that this matter was definitely a sure thing, otherwise this guy would not have told them about it.

The captain asked, "I just heard you say you'll move out tomorrow. Have you found a place to live?"

Han Zhenyu shook his head. "I haven't found one yet. I plan to go to the city tomorrow to see if I can rent a house. If there is no suitable one, I will let my wife live with my grandmother or my aunt for a while and move back after the house is built."

Han Hongbing felt more and more that this boy would have a bright future, so he wanted to take this opportunity to do him a favor. He thought for a moment and said:

"Then why don't you worry about feeding them when you build the house? It's troublesome for your wife to run back and forth. There is an empty house next to the brigade headquarters. I can lend it to you to live in. Just pay some rent every month."

"That's great, thank you captain, this really helps me a lot." Han Zhenyu breathed a sigh of relief now that he had found a place to live.

There are cornfields on both sides of the road now. If Su Xieqiu runs back and forth every day, he would really feel uneasy.

I'm afraid I'll have to trouble my cousins ​​to pick me up every day. It would be great if I could live in the village.

Han Zhenyu sent the three people back, asked the team leader for leave tomorrow, and then returned to the Han family.

Old Man Han and his two sons were sitting in the yard enjoying the cool air when they heard Yang Lanhua's cursing voice coming from the kitchen.

Han Zhenyu went straight back to their room. The door was ajar and the dim kerosene lamp was flickering with a soft light.

On the kang table were the corn tortillas that had not been eaten in the morning, and a large bowl of kidney bean stew with chicken.

Su Xieqiu sat on the edge of the kang, listening with a smile to Yang Lanhua's cursing that sounded like a drama.

"What are you laughing at?" Han Zhenyu asked after closing the door.

"I was listening to an opera. She kept cursing for so long without repeating herself. Her vocabulary is really rich." Su Xieqiu said with a smile.

"Don't bother with her. Let's move out tomorrow morning."

"By the way, the house hasn't been built yet. Where are we going to live after we move out?" Su Xieqiu then remembered that they could only stay here until tomorrow morning.

"There is an empty room in the brigade headquarters, and the brigade commander said he would lend it to us for a while."

Su Xieqiu asked him, "When will the house be built?"

The brigade’s house doesn’t have a kang. It’s okay in the summer, but it’s uninhabitable in the winter. People will freeze to death without a kang.

"I have to go out this time, so I can't worry about the house. I plan to ask grandpa and my uncle to bring people to help build it. You can help them cook lunch at noon. Do you think this is okay?"

"Okay, no problem."

"Then I will go and clean the brigade headquarters early tomorrow morning, move our things over there, and then go to the city to buy pots, pans, and utensils."

Su Xieqiu smiled and nodded, then handed him a pair of chopsticks. "It's getting late, let's eat first, and we can talk about these things later."

It was almost dark when she got off work. She had been busy for so long that she felt it should be nine o'clock now.

While they were eating, they discussed the details of building the house.

Han Zhenyu said: "I plan to build four brick houses, leaving a partition for the bathroom and kitchen. The kitchen is connected to the kang, and there are fire walls around it.

The toilet should be built as you said, making it a closed one and placed next to the fire wall, so it won't be cold when going to the toilet in winter.

Build a simple kitchen in the yard and cook outside in the summer."

"Build a brick house? We need to build four more. How much will that cost?" Su Xieqiu looked at him in surprise. "Bricks seem hard to get. Can we buy some?"

She seemed to have read in a book before that in this era one had to get a note to buy bricks.

She didn't know whether it was true or not, but in Sanhua Brigade, most people lived in adobe houses, with only a few brick houses.

"Don't worry about the money. I've earned some money in the past few years, which should be enough to build a yard. This morning when I went to the city, I met a friend, and he approved a brick note for me."

Han Zhenyu had not originally planned to build a brick house as he did not want to be so high-profile in the village.

But yesterday Su Xieqiu wanted a flush toilet and a bathroom, and the requirements he put forward would definitely not turn out well if bricks were used.

Since this woman doesn't want to go back to the city, try to meet her demands.

After all, they are husband and wife. No matter how far they can go in the future, at least he will not treat her unfairly within his ability.

If we really can't get along in the future, I will leave this yard to her, which will complete our fate.
