Chapter 55 With chickens and ducks, children have fun
In less than half an hour, the old house was emptied and all the household items, pots and pans were moved to the dilapidated yard at the east end of the village.
Ye Xiuyan smiled and came up with the idea to open up the wall in the middle of the two small courtyards to form one courtyard.
The home of brothers Ye Meng and Ye Jian is originally a courtyard.
When the family was separated, Mrs. Li was biased and gave one-third to her younger son. They then built a wall to separate the two families.
Now Mrs. Li has moved away, pushed down the wall, sealed the small side door of Ye Jian's house, used the gate, and reorganized it into a courtyard, thus returning to the original appearance of Ye Jian's house.
The two attendants obeyed the order and naturally had no objections. With a heroic wave of their hands, they gave each of the men in the village an additional twenty cash and asked them to start working immediately.
With money calling from the front, men from all families were full of energy, smashing walls and laying bricks.
In one morning, the Li family has changed drastically and returned to its original appearance before it was transformed into a separate family.
Ye Jian stood in the courtyard, looking at the familiar courtyard where he grew up and the eight-foot-tall man, and shed tears of excitement.

The yard was established, and new furniture needed to be purchased. The two servants did not wait for the master's instructions, had lunch, and drove a mule cart to the county town to purchase items.
Ye Jian happened to be going to the county government office to change his household registration, so he went with the two of them and took a mule cart to the county seat.
Wu Juan took two sisters, Daya and Erya, to clear out two warehouses and use them as chicken coops and duck coops.
With chickens and ducks, children have fun.
Ye Xiuyan cut a few suitable branches and took her younger brothers and sisters to play chickens and ducks.
The three little ones were crazy about happiness, waving branches and chasing chickens and ducks around on the river bank.
Especially Douding, who was chasing chickens and ducks with his short legs and accidentally fell. He didn't cry or make a fuss. He got up by himself and continued to play wildly.
All afternoon, I was covered in mud and was giggling happily.

It was completely dark. Around 11:00, the three people who had gone to the county seat hurried back in a mule cart.
Also coming back together was the caravan from the Wood and Pottery Workshop. Four carriages were loaded with newly purchased household items.
The clerk from the wooden pottery shop helped move the new furniture into the house, collected the final payment, and returned to the county town overnight.
Ye Jian came to the side room in person to express his thanks and talked to Lin Jingcheng for a long time before saying goodbye and leaving.
The busy and fulfilling day finally passed, and the children fell asleep peacefully.
Ye Jian and Wu Juan were sitting in the yard leaning against each other, bathing in the moonlight, full of longing for a better future.

With nearly a hundred chickens and ducks, the family's life has become busy.
Daya and Erya drove the chickens out of the chicken coop early in the morning and drove them up the mountain to find food.
Doubao and Sanya were not idle either, ducking around the reeds in the shallows.
Ye Jian casts a net to catch fish, but in the past, small fish and shrimps would usually be released.
Now that we have chickens and ducks, some of them will be deliberately kept as feed.
While Ye Xiuyan was painting, she went into the mountains to pick herbs and absorbed spiritual stones to practice.
When my father is not at home, he will also take two ospreys down to the river to fish, and by the way, he will go down to the river to catch a few river mussels and look for pearls.
The chickens and ducks are carefully fed and lay eggs very well.
Wu Juan cleans the chicken coop every day and can find more than twenty eggs.
Ducks like to lay eggs in reeds.
Ye Xiuyan relied on her little cleverness to get in while the ducks were not paying attention, and quickly took away the duck eggs.
As time went by, eggs and duck eggs became abundant.
Wu Juan and Ye Jian planned to pickle salted eggs, pull them on a mule cart, and take them to the town for sale.
Thank you little fairy Abai Yabai for the reward.
