After eating a bowl of rice and meat porridge, Song Yuehua felt like she was alive again.
Xiaoyu took the empty bowl and prepared to fill it with another one. Song Yuehua asked, "Where are Dabao and Xiaobao?"
"Oh my!" Xiaoyu cried out, "I have to go inform Granny Wang!"
After saying that, he put the bowl on the table and ran out without looking back.
Song Yuehua: "..." Porridge!
Xiaoyu on the side giggled and brought in the whole pot of porridge.
When Song Yuehua finished her fourth bowl, Granny Wang came over carrying Dabao and Xiaobao.
"Girl, are you feeling better?" Granny Wang's eyes were full of pity.
Song Yuehua took the two treasures and held them in her arms. "Don't worry, mother-in-law. They are just too hungry. There is nothing wrong with them."
"Ah..." Granny Wang lowered her eyes and sighed helplessly, "I'll go back first and bring you chicken soup in the evening."
"Mother-in-law, there's no need..." Song Yuehua hurriedly stopped her.
Granny Wang waved her hand, said a few words to Xiaoyu, and left.
After not seeing them for a few days, the two little ones are still plump and white, and it can be seen that they are well taken care of.
Song Yuehua hugged the two little ones tightly, her heart filled with joy of recovering what she had lost.
After being in a coma for four whole days, Song Yuehua felt like her skeleton was about to fall apart. She wanted to get out of bed and move around, but Xiaoyu and Xiaoyu wouldn't agree.
"Get some sun." Yu said calmly from the side.
Xiaoyu and Xiaoyu stopped him immediately.
Song Yuehua, "..."
The sun is very bright and it feels warm on my body. I don’t know how long it has been since I felt so leisurely.
In the afternoon, Xie Feng drove a ox cart and brought Xie Wenwu with him.
"master!"
Suddenly a flesh bomb rushed over,
Xie Wenwu said with a look of fear, "Master, you finally woke up. I was almost scared to death. How dare you fight a giant insect alone? Even my father is not as fierce as you."
As expected, Xie Wenwu was hit hard on the back of his head.
"Put your hand out." Xie Feng said.
Song Yuehua stretched out her hand, and Xie Feng felt her pulse for a while before saying, "There's nothing wrong."
"Second Uncle," Xie Wenwu asked hurriedly, "Can I make a boiled chicken for Master to nourish her?"
Xie Feng glanced at him and said slowly, "Okay!"
After getting permission, Xie Wenwu grinned and went to pick up the two chickens from the ox cart.
So, how many chickens does the Xie family raise?
After Xie Wenwu left, Xie Feng took out a large bag of silver and said, "I sold it for 100 taels in total, 80 taels are yours."
Song Yuehua didn't dare to ask for it, and said, "If it weren't for you, I would have lost my life, how could I ask for money?"
"If you only blinded two eyes, you can get 40 taels, and the arrow that hit the front side is worth another 40 taels."
"Each industry has its own rules." Xie Feng said slowly.
Song Yuehua hesitated for a moment and said, "100 taels, half for each of us, I've already gotten a great bargain, I can't repay you for saving my life, if you continue to refuse, I'm afraid my life won't be enough to repay you."
The two were silent for a long time, and Xie Feng took out 50 taels and gave it to Song Yuehua.
"Thank you, Uncle Second. Thank you very much!"
In the sunlight, Song Yuehua looked gentle.
After they left at night, Song Yuehua asked Xiaoyu why Yu came as well.
Xiaoyu explained, "Xiaoyu was worried that we wouldn't be able to take good care of Sister, so she called Aunt Yu over."
Song Yuehua said "Oh", it turns out Aunt Yu is a kind-hearted person, but you can't really tell.
Then, Song Yuehua began to count the silver.
Today's 50 taels, plus the previous 11 taels, a total of 61 taels of silver.
With money, you can start planning many things.
The house will be almost finished in two days, so we need to buy more food and store it in the cellar.
Buy some books and pens. During the winter months, it is just right for Xiaoyu to study on the kang.
After moving, you still need to stock up on some firewood. If there is someone selling charcoal, you can buy some. This way, you can cook a pot or other food at home in the winter.
There's not enough cotton either, so I need to prepare a few more quilts so that Xiaoyu and Wenwu can stay overnight...
In the next few days, Song Yuehua either took care of the baby or wandered around the house all day.
Xiaoyu wouldn't let her get involved in anything.
I always feel that as children grow up, they have more and more ideas of their own.
She was scared a few days ago, so as long as Xiaoyu could feel at ease, Song Yuehua let her do whatever she wanted.
As the last tile was put on the roof, firecrackers were lit and everyone cheered at this moment.
The Feng Shui master set up a table in the middle of the courtyard and held a ceremony to thank the earth. Zhou Lizheng was also invited to sit in the main hall.
The Zhang, Zhou, and Wang families all sent old things.
After the excitement of the new house, Zhou Dafu settled the wages of all the craftsmen one by one, and everyone thanked him and left.
Only a few people from their village were left in the house.
Song Yuehua wanted to invite a few people to have dinner, but Zhou Lizheng waved his hand and said, "It's not too late to eat there when you host the banquet."
As for holding a wedding banquet, Song Yuehua didn't really want to go through the trouble.
But then she thought, it’s not good to be too unique living in the village. Everyone does it, so she should do it too.
Song Yuehua turned around and looked for Zhou Dafu, asking him to help invite someone who specialized in preparing the banquet.
Get ready early and see if you can schedule it for the day after tomorrow.
All matters concerning the banquet were left to Zhou Dafu, and Song Yuehua was only responsible for eating the banquet and paying the money.
When everyone left, only family members were left at home.
Looking at the newly built house, the children were extremely excited.
There are two red brick and white wall houses, each with a large kang bed.
A doorway is opened in the wall between the two rooms for convenient movement. A thick curtain will be hung in the middle to retain heat and protect privacy.
The dining hall and the two living rooms were not connected in the original plan.
Later, Zhou Dafu saw too many carts of mud bricks, so after discussing with Song Yuehua, he simply added two more carts of mud bricks to fill the empty space and build an extra room.
The dining room is connected to the kitchen.
There was a door from the kitchen leading to the bathroom.
The bathroom was paved with bluestone floors, and a small stove was built in the corner of the door. There was no pot on it, only a stove mouth.
Song Yuehua thought that instead of boiling hot water in the kitchen and then bringing it over, it would be better to buy a big pot and boil water directly in the bathroom.
There is a large bathtub in the middle of the bathroom, which was custom-made by Song Yuehua privately with Carpenter Yang.
It has been so many days, and Song Yuehua dreams of taking a good bath.
The outhouse is actually the place where the craftsmen spent the most time and effort, because Song Yuehua’s requirement was that no feces should be left.
Therefore, the craftsmen laid stone bricks underneath to make a slope. After using the toilet each time, they could flush it down with water into the cesspool on the other side of the wall.
Several hidden grooves were built in the bathing area. Every time you take a bath, the water will flow into the pool in the toilet. If the stones outside the pool are moved away, the water in the pool will automatically flush the toilet.
Xie Wenwu couldn't understand why there were so many things to pay attention to when taking a shit.
But it was rare to see Xiaoyu and Xiaoyu sitting around the bathtub.
The newly built house is a bit damp, but once the two kangs are lit, there will be no problem and we can move in at any time.
The twins were handed over to Granny Wang, and Song Yuehua took the younger ones back to the house to clean up and prepare to move.
