"Little sister, is it possible that there are only stones underneath?" Wen Li said with a frown.
"I don't know, but it shouldn't be. No one would be so extravagant as to build a foundation in the backyard, and use stone for the foundation."
"So where do we start digging now?"
Su Qing looked around.
The west side of the backyard is close to the small gate, the east side is a dry toilet, and the well is in the middle of the backyard. None of them are good places.
I accidentally glanced at the windowsill of the east room and came up with a plan.
"Brother, dig along here." Su Qing pointed to the concave space in the corner of the wall.
The ear room on the east side of the main house is recessed, so we can just knock down the wall separating the kitchen from the backyard and move it one meter outward to be level with the east room.
The basement stairs can also be built along the foundation, making them more stable.
Another thing is that the entrance to the basement is inside the house. Once the door is closed, who knows what you are doing inside the house?
The circled area is the recessed area of the ear room, and the wall of the kitchen is moved outward to be level with the east room.
Su Qing shared his idea with everyone. Su Che estimated it and felt that it was very feasible.
He picked up the sledgehammer and started smashing the wall.
Fortunately, Su Qing's house is a certain distance away from the village, otherwise the knocking sounds would definitely alarm the neighbors.
After cleaning up the fallen bricks, they moved the kitchen wall one meter towards the backyard overnight.
Meanwhile, others dug with shovels.
As boxes of soil were dug out, Wen Li pointed and asked, "Little sister, what should we do with this soil?"
"Let's take off the adobe. When the basement is dug, we can build it with adobe bricks. It will be more solid."
During the meal, Su Qing brought out bread and milk to replenish everyone's energy.
"Okay, let's stop digging. We'll continue digging tomorrow during the day. We have to go to work and school tomorrow." Su's mother said, and everyone put down the tools in their hands.
Perhaps he was too tired, as the Su family's house was filled with light snoring tonight.
While Su Qing's family was digging the basement day and night, the consumption of the barn over there was also increasing rapidly.
