Chapter 430 Life is tight (ask for a monthly pass!)
After returning home, Yan Yu first went to see Master Lu.
After the Qi family’s house was built, the Hu family invited Master Lu’s family.
The Hu family used to have four adobe houses. As the Hu family’s wealth grew, Hu Da became a small flag again. In the words of Uncle Hu, the size of an official, the old man gradually became dissatisfied with his house.
After the two in-laws from Da’an Village came here, Uncle Hu found his adobe house more and more distasteful. After a family discussion, they decided to build another house.
Occupy two more homesteads in the names of Hu Da and Hu Er.
Lift the lid at the same time.
There are six brick and stone tile houses, a large yard, a fire wall, a large kang in every room, stone slabs on the floor, plaster on the walls, cesspit, and pigsty...
In short, all standards are on par with the Yan family.
Uncle Hu and his wife, together with his unmarried old daughter Hu Xiaomei, Mr. and Mrs. Hu, Mr. and Mrs. Hu, plus the three grandchildren of the family, Da Lang, Er Lang and Xiao Ni, originally four rooms were enough to live in.
When the two in-laws from Da’an Village, Hu Da’s daughter-in-law’s natal family, and Hu Da’s sister-in-law’s family came, the room couldn’t be said to be crowded.
They are all real relatives, rushing to the old Hu's house. Uncle Hu is a good-looking man. It's not good to be thin on one side and thicker on the other. It's not good for anyone to go out to the village to find a place to live.
Fortunately, the kang pan was big at the beginning, and they slept horizontally and vertically, so they finally accommodated the two in-laws.
But the fact of building a house can't wait until the spring of next year, it is imminent!
Master Lu was invited to make a plan, and the family's money would be enough.
Didn't say it, cover!
Uncle Hu secretly planned that after the two new houses are built, one will be given to the eldest son, and the eldest daughter-in-law’s family will live there first.
One is for the second family. The old couple brought their old daughter to follow.
The four adobe houses I live in now will be lent to the elder sister’s family first, and when they build up the house and move out, the older couple will move back with the younger sister. At age, the phase looks...
The young people in the village made Uncle Hu scratch in his heart, and there was always something that he was not satisfied with.
Uncle Hu sighed.
Feeling panicked in the house, I plan to go to the two places in the new house.
Yan Yu saw Grandpa Hu standing upright with his hands behind his back, walking slowly forward from a long distance.
"Grandpa Hu!"
Uncle Hu heard the movement and turned around to look. When he saw that it was Xiaoer, the wrinkles on his face burst out into a smile.
"Little Er, what are you doing?"
"Talk to Master Lu about something. Is Grandpa Hu going to Uncle Hu and Uncle Hu's new house? Sit on my sledge, if you can sit down." Yan Yu got down, put on airs, and stood behind.
Uncle Hu thought it was new and wanted to try it.
He looked at the dog pulling the sledge in front of him, and asked with some concern: "Can you pull it? Grandpa Hu is very heavy."
"Hee hee! Sure, Grandpa Hu just come up." Yan Yu promised.
Uncle Hu said angrily: "Medium!"
Sit on it with quick hands and feet, with your legs crossed, and sit upright.
"Let's go!"
Yan Yu shouted in a clear voice: "Hold on, run slowly."
"Little Er, it's too slow, hurry up."
"Okay! Grandpa Hu sit down... Hold on, let's run!"
…
Hu Er readily agreed, and Da Lang and Er Lang next to him looked at each other, wanting to cry twice.
Fortunately, the two children held back and vented all their excitement in the work, and the mortar mixing became more and more joyful.
"Uncle Lu, my father asked the old man, and he said that if you want to buy a homestead, you can just negotiate with the village, decide which piece of land it is, and then go to the household house to go through the formalities. The land in our village is also land reclamation. Back then It’s better to get more land. If your family wants to plant it, follow our rules of reclaiming wasteland. It’s also a three-year tax exemption, and a three-year deed. It’s just seeds. The government can’t distribute them now, so wait until next spring.” Yan Yu said. It was a little slow, for fear that the Lu family could not hear clearly.
Country people pay special attention to things related to houses and land.
Master Lu's family, his two cousins' family, all stopped what they were doing, surrounded Yan Yu, and listened carefully, for fear of missing a sentence.
Brother Lu Datang said: "In the process of opening up wasteland, if there are no seeds, it will be hit."
The second cousin Lu said: "Then how is the land at home organized? Planting this side, the other side is too busy, is it really for sale?"
The whole family has also discussed in private, and they want to live here in Xiao'an Village, but they don't want to give up the original land, but let them plant it. It's too busy. Selling the land is also a way, with more money in hand, here Just build a house.
But...they really don't want to sell the land.
Yan Yu listened and felt that the problem of insufficient labor was still easy to solve.
There are not enough people, use livestock to fill it up!
"Uncle Lu, it's better to buy a cow in your family's situation." She sincerely suggested.
"Cows are not easy to buy. Who can sell the cows that are properly used, and the calves will have to be raised for a few years..." Master Lu frowned.
Yan Yu rolled his eyes and asked, "I heard that there are a lot of cattle and sheep in Beirong, do you have the courage to bring cattle and sheep over there?"
"Why not." Master Lu, who is well-informed, said, "It's rare to see tigers here. There are dragons and phoenixes, and there are more phoenixes."
Yan Yu's heart was about to move.
She couldn't help asking: "Uncle Lu, if you can get a cow, can you buy it?"
Master Lu and his two cousins looked at each other, and said with certainty: "Buy, although it is more expensive, but one ox is worth several strong laborers. Let us buy one, and it will be enough for rotation, Xiao Er, but Someone sells cattle at the other end of Huju? If you know the letter, you must speak to us."
Yan Yu responded vaguely, and did not say whether there was a cow for sale at Huju, but only promised that Youxin would be the first to inform the Lu family.
Uncle Hu was listening by the side.
Think about it in your heart.
If you want to talk about farming, you have to use cattle, mules and donkeys don't matter.
The older people in his family, with five acres of land per person, worked hard day and night to develop it.
To grow vegetables this summer, the plow is shallow. If we want to grow grain, we have to plow deeper.
A lot of the family’s money was used to build two houses, and the rest had to be prepared for the younger sister’s dowry...
well!
His family is already one of the top three richest families in the village, yet they still live in such a tight situation.
Yan Yu didn't go home, but went directly to the charcoal burning field in the forest.
Both Qi Da and Qi Wu went home for dinner.
Only Qi Si was here, arranging the steamed buns one by one on the stove, and when he felt that they were almost baked, he turned them over.
"Fourth Uncle, Fourth Uncle Qi, Fourth Uncle!" Yan Yu's cheerful voice moved from far to near.
When Qi Si heard the sound, he stood up and strode out of the wooden house.
"Xiao Er!" He shouted happily.
