"Dad, Xinxin wants to go play with Sister Si Ya..."
Chu Tian came back to his senses and looked down to see Xinxin tugging at his clothes, looking at him obediently. He touched her head and smiled, "Okay, go ahead, but you can only play in front of the house, you can't run around outside."
"Dad, Xinxin doesn't run around."
Xinxin responded obediently and ran out with a "da da da".
As soon as they got off work in the evening, people who wanted to eat came one after another, and Sun Weiguo came with a bottle of white wine.
"Brother Tian, congratulations on moving into your new house!"
Chu Tian smiled and went forward to greet him, "You're here, what kind of wine did you bring?"
"By the way, why didn't my sister-in-law come? And why didn't Brother Baoguo come either?"
As he spoke, he did not forget to look behind Sun Weiguo.
Sun Weiguo, "Meiling has been here for a long time. As for my eldest brother, he has something else to do in the brigade. He has to go help my father, so he probably won't be able to come."
Chu Tian nodded slightly, "Okay, we can eat together next time..."
At dinner time, the men were in Chu Min's room and the women were in Chu Tian's room.
"Hey, when will my family be able to live in a cement brick bungalow..."
"Come on, don't you? Do you know how much it costs to build a cement brick house? Your family owes the brigade money every year. Can you afford it?"
"Oh, by the way, Chu Tian, how much did you and Chu Min's house cost?"
Sun Weiguo was displeased when he heard this. Without waiting for Chu Tian and Chu Min to respond, he spoke first, "Hey, Fatty, you have too many questions, don't you?"
Xiaopang curled his lips and said, "I just want to know how much it will cost, what's wrong?"
Sun Weiguo glared at the person sitting opposite him and said, "You're asking how much it cost to build this? You..."
Seeing Sun Weiguo arguing with his teammates, Chu Tian smiled and pulled Sun Weiguo's hand down, then said to the person sitting opposite him, "It cost about 1,200 or 1,000, right? Most of it was for bricks, and the rest was for cement and new furniture."
"Wow? So much? Chu Tian, where did you get so much money?"
Chu Tian explained without changing his expression, "You also know that my grandmother came all the way from her hometown to see us. When she heard that we wanted to build a house, she lent us some money. I borrowed another part from the brigade, and the rest was obtained from the division of the family!"
This was something he and Chu Min had discussed in advance. There was no other way. They couldn't say that the money was that much from the family division, nor could they say that it was all given by grandma, and they certainly couldn't say that it was all borrowed from the brigade. Anyway, that's what they said. As for how much they got from the family division, how much was given by grandma, and how much was borrowed from the brigade, let them guess for themselves!
"Even if it's twelve thousand, then if you count seven houses each, that's over one hundred and seventy?"
Chu Tian nodded slightly when he heard this. "About the same. In fact, if we don't use cement and don't buy furniture, the cost of a house can be controlled at around 120 yuan. If we use cement, it will cost at least 160 yuan per house..."
The furniture really didn't cost much, because I bought the materials myself and had it custom-made. I only paid for the wood and labor, which was only a few dozen dollars in total, right?
In fact, when he spent the money to order the house, Mrs. Chu was very distressed. Why? It was because Uncle Chu was good at carpentry. He never spent money on furniture in the house. He made all the furniture himself.
It’s a pity that Uncle Chu is not here, and he can’t wait for Uncle Chu and others to come before doing it, right?
Sun Weiguo continued, "But since we've already built a brick house, it's better to use cement. Look at this cement floor and cement roof, how smooth they are! It will be very clean to dry things on the roof in the future..."
After a pause, he continued, "It's just that it's impossible for Brother Tian and Brother Chumin to build seven houses at once. However, if we work hard for a few years, we can still build two or three main houses..."
After Sun Weiguo said this, the male team members present all had some thoughts in their minds. Yes, it sounds like 1,200 or 1,300 yuan is a lot, but that's because there are so many houses being built. We can build two or three houses on our own, and then add more when we save enough money. Isn't that what the older generation did?
After dinner, Chu Jun drank a little too much and refused Chu Tian's offer to send him home. He staggered home with Daya, while the others were still chatting and drinking.
Just as they passed a pile of firewood less than 500 meters away from their home, the Chu army stopped.
Daya looked at her father in confusion, "Dad..."
Before she could finish her words, Chu Jun covered her mouth and ears with his hands and carefully moved to the side of the firewood pile. Listening to the voices of people talking behind the firewood pile, his face became worse and worse. He took a deep breath, took Daya away from the firewood pile, and then leaned over to whisper in her ear.
"Daya, go find your uncles and call the team leader over. Tell them there's a thief in our team..."
Daya was completely confused. She looked at the pile of firewood, then looked at Chu Jun with a serious expression, nodded, turned around and ran away.
Chu Jun stood beside the firewood pile with a gloomy expression, his fists clenched, listening to the sounds coming from behind without saying a word. He finally understood why she had always been so mean to Daya, and why she was so partial to Erzhu and Erya. It turned out that everything was his fault...
Chu Tian and the others were stunned. "Daya, what did you say?"
Daya said anxiously, "There's a thief. My father and I were almost home when he suddenly said there was a thief..."
Chu Min stood up suddenly and said, "Let's go, take us there..."
Daya hesitated for a while before speaking again, "Well, well, my father said that the team leader should go too."
Sun Weiguo hurriedly shouted, "Daya, I'm going to call my dad, you guys go first..."
They quickly arrived at the place and saw Chu Jun standing next to the firewood pile. Just as they were about to ask, they heard Chu Min whisper, "Keep your voices down, don't let the thieves hear..."
When the Chu army heard the noise, they waved towards them. Several people understood and walked over with light steps.
"Brother, where's the thief?"
Chu Jun raised his chin, "Behind..."
Chu Tian looked around, pulled out a stick from the pile of firewood, and gestured, "Go over?"
Chu Jun: "I'll go first..."
Seeing this, several people followed suit and took a wooden stick. They followed Chu Jun and walked towards the firewood pile. Without any warning, Chu Jun hit the two people who were exercising passionately...
"Ah, who, who dares to hit me!"
A man wearing only a jacket was hit on the back by a stick. He jumped up with a start and looked around. When he jumped up, everyone saw a naked woman lying in the pile of firewood. They all opened their eyes wide in disbelief.
Because it was already dark, even though there was a moon, and because they were having an affair in a pile of firewood, everyone only saw a naked woman and could not see her face clearly.
"Oh my god! This isn't a thief, this is catching an adulterer? Who is this woman? Why does she look so familiar?"
"ah···"
