My grandparents definitely can’t keep staying at someone else’s house.
In addition to the three cow pens, there were only two rooms in the cowshed. One was for the breeder, and the other was for the feed. It was not convenient for my grandfather and his family to stay there.
It’s better to build a house by myself, using the same adobe as the Gu family’s.
Father Gu: "Our house was built with adobe bricks. When we arrived, it was the beginning of spring, just in time for spring plowing. The cold weather had not yet subsided. We were busy cultivating the land during the day and busy hauling adobe bricks at night. It was really tiring! The time you came was perfect. It's summer, and there's not much work to do in the fields. The house will be dry in a few days."
Father Gu sighed. They came at the wrong time. They were busy day and night. It was still cold when they slept at night, and sometimes they would wake up from the cold.
Fortunately, the people sent down here were very united, helping out whenever they needed to build a house or when they ran out of food. Otherwise, the couple wouldn't have been able to make it.
The Chen family who had come here were indeed lucky. It was the height of summer, neither the busy farming season of spring plowing and autumn harvest nor the freezing winter.
In this way, there will be more time to find people to help, and the house can be built quickly. After it is built, people can live in it in a few days!
Upon hearing this, Xu Nanxing said to Grandpa Chen, "Grandpa, you still need to build another house to live in. Now that there is not much work to do in the fields, you can find someone to help."
Grandpa Chen nodded. With four people in their family, they definitely couldn't live in someone else's house forever. The cowshed had two rooms: one for the breeder and one for the feed. It was impossible for them to live there.
So they had to build a house to live in. The food they brought wasn't enough to pay their wages, but if they gathered the money they had, it should still be enough.
So he said to Gu's father, "Comrade Gu, I still need your help in finding someone to help us build a house to live in."
Father Gu: "Of course we should. We all have the same experience, so we should help each other."
Next, the two continued to discuss the details of building the house, such as the construction costs and the time required to build the house. After all, they were going to hire someone to help, so they had to agree on it first.
Xu Nanxing interrupted, "I can bring some food over and cook for the people who come to help."
When building a house in the countryside, the owner has to provide meals to the workers every day.
When grandpa and his family came, it was not the time to distribute food, so the food they brought might not be enough for them to eat, so Xu Nanxing offered to provide meals.
After all, she had found a box of gold bars at her scumbag father's place, which should have been left to her mother by her grandfather. In the end, it was found by Xu Nanxing, which was also a favor to her grandfather.
Grandpa and uncle are in trouble now, so she must help.
Grandpa Chen seemed to be hesitant to speak. He was afraid that the little girl would suffer a loss. It was very hard for children from the city to go to the countryside to build the rural area.
He didn't say anything for the time being and planned to ask his granddaughter alone later.
After the meal, Xu Nanxing took away the two wooden barrels and left a few sets of bowls and chopsticks to his grandfather and others.
Grandpa had difficulty walking, and Chen Zhiqiu saw the worry in his father's eyes and said, "I'll go see Nanxing off."
He immediately caught up with Xu Nanxing.
Seeing his uncle chasing him out, Xu Nanxing said, "Uncle, don't worry about me! I'm doing fine here! When I went to the countryside, my father gave me 300 yuan and a lot of tickets, and prepared a lot of things for me. I have enough money. Some of the educated youth know people at the grain station, and they can buy enough food. I have enough food to eat, don't worry!"
The "people who know the grain station" refers to the male protagonist and his group. According to what Chen Jiaxin secretly told her, some people in the educated youth point do not have enough food and food coupons, so they will ask the male protagonist and his group for help to buy food.
Chen Zhiqiu sighed, "You're more calculating than your mother! It must have been difficult for you to make a living under your stepmother's thumb for so many years!"
As if he had thought of something, he gritted his teeth and said, "Back then, your grandfather strongly opposed your mother marrying your father, saying he was calculating and hypocritical. And he was right, wasn't he? Just a month or two after your mother died, he remarried! He sent you back to your hometown when you were still a baby! If your grandfather hadn't been in trouble, I would have come to his house and beaten him to a pulp!"
At this moment, his uncle was in a bad mood. He was afraid that he really wanted to go to Jing City to beat Xu Weidong up, so Xu Nanxing decided to tell him the truth.
So she told him everything about how she framed Zhang Hongyan for adultery with Liu Quan, how the police discovered the real cause of Xu's mother's death, and how Xu Weidong and Zhang Hongyan were sentenced to death.
"This happened before I went to the countryside. I didn't tell you because I was afraid Grandpa wouldn't be able to bear it if he knew the truth. Now that you know, don't reveal the secret to Grandpa!"
When Chen Zhiqiu first heard the truth, he was a little stunned. He was a little surprised that his niece had framed his stepmother, and he hated Xu and Zhang for secretly harming his sister. In the end, he learned that the two had received their comeuppance, which made him feel a little relieved!
Looking at my niece with an innocent face, I imagined that she used this innocent and harmless face to frame my stepmother, and then guided the police to find out the real cause of my mother's death and bring the murderer to justice.
Uncle Chen doesn’t know what white and black mean, he just knows that his niece is super cute!
Suddenly they felt a little proud that such a smart little girl was from their family.
Moreover, my niece is smarter and more decisive than my sister.
Alas! If my sister hadn't been so naive, she wouldn't have been deceived by Xu Weidong and ended up like this!
But my niece is so smart, she won’t be cheated by a man again!
No, this time he had to keep a close eye on his niece no matter what and not let her repeat her mother's mistakes!
Knowing that Xu Nanxing had sold his job and taken away the gold bars that Grandpa had left for his mother, Uncle Chen thought for a moment and said, "In fact, your grandfather also hid a lot of valuable things, all buried in the old house in Beijing. Later, your grandfather and I were both arrested and then exiled. I think the house should have been confiscated as well. If..."
Xu Nanxing's eyes lit up when she heard this! She said that a lean camel is bigger than a horse, so her grandfather must have a backup plan!
Although the house was confiscated, it can be taken back if it is rehabilitated in the future.
"It doesn't matter. It's far away in Beijing. If it was buried underground, it should still be there. We can just find a way to get it back later! By the way, what are the valuables? Any gold or jade?"
Do you have any jade? Is the jade good quality? Are the pieces large?
These are what Xu Nanxing wants to ask!
Seeing his niece's eyes sparkling, Chen Zhiqiu was a little amused. "Your grandfather hid it and told me about it later. I don't know much, but there should be gold, silver, and jade artifacts, as well as many land deeds, antiques, and rare books. They were all hidden during the "Four Olds" era, and they kept piling up more and more!"
"Land deed! Do you have a land deed for the courtyard house?"
