"I'm awake! There will be a lot of people at home during my father's birthday. Don't worry, they will definitely be consumed!" Gu Yanfeng replied. He was afraid that the lady would persuade him again, so he quickly asked: "I heard that it is ten copper coins each, and the deposit is four
A copper plate, right?"
Yi Ren estimated the days in her mind. Today is the fifth day of the lunar month. If she celebrates her 24th birthday, it is still early and there is still time to place an order. "Yes, Mr. Gu is here well prepared."
She was wrapped in Gu Yanfeng's coat, her hair was messy, and the blood on the corner of her mouth was not even wiped dry. But for some reason, Gu Yanfeng felt that she had a kind of natural calmness and a strategist-like strategizing, and she could win a thousand miles.
outside.
"Three hundred, I'll give you twenty taels for the deposit." Gu Yanfeng took out a dime of silver, shook it, and put it on the table. "It's been weighed. If you don't worry, you can go to the county to weigh it again tomorrow."
"Of course there is no need!" Seeing that they had finished talking about the business, Yiren changed the subject. "There is one more thing I want to trouble Mr. Gu."
After hearing this, Gu Yanfeng looked like the fat man on the ground with understanding.
"Yes! You can't give him any advantage! Send him to the official!" Aunt Li was very worried that Chen Changsheng had died here. She timidly touched it and felt Chen Changsheng's breath. He was strong and strong, and he was alive and well!
As time passed, all the worries in my heart disappeared, and instead, I felt angry.
"I won't send him to the official position." Yiren's eyes were firm. "Please, Mr. Gu, please send him back to Lingzhou."
Gu Yanfeng tilted his head with confusion on his face: "Send him home?"
"This man's name is Chen Changsheng. According to the relationship, he is my cousin." The corners of Yiren's lips curled up with a cold look on her face. "I have a cousin who is very considerate! I sent him back and said he owed me
For prostitution, let my sister-in-law pay."
Gu Yanfeng looked at Aunt Li who was hesitant to speak. He knew that they had something to say, so he didn't ask any more questions. He and Jiang Ye took Chen Changsheng and left.
After the sound of Gu Yanfeng's horse hoofs faded away, Yiren couldn't help but feel weak in her legs. Aunt Li, who had been paying attention to Yiren's condition, rushed to Yiren and supported her: "Yiren! It's all my fault!"
Aunt Li was afraid that if something happened to her today, it would either kill two people, or she would also hang herself with a hemp rope. Tears filled her eyes uncontrollably, melancholy.
"Auntie, this has nothing to do with you!" Yiren was indeed filled with hatred, so much so that her teeth itched with hatred. She was carrying a baby in her belly at the moment, and coupled with the disparity in strength between men and women, she had to borrow a knife to kill someone, but she didn't have to swallow her breath.
Those who go down will be returned sooner or later.
"Sanmao, Simao, go help my aunt carry the rice and noodles!" Yiren waved to the two children and dismissed them.
Then he turned to Aunt Li and asked: "Auntie, isn't your uncle Ting working as a mason in the city? Can you help me find out how much it costs to build a house and build a monastery?"
"Yiren, you want to build a house? This is a big expense!" Aunt Li said in surprise, then she thought of something again. "It doesn't matter if you build a house or build a house!"
"I want to build this yard, make the walls high, have a main room with a main room, an inner room and a stove, a cellar, and if I have enough money, maybe add a drying room."
"What is a house-shower?" Aunt Li asked doubtfully.
The Songjiazhuang of this era was located in the northwest, but close to the south, so there was no fire kang, the stove was usually in a separate room, and there were no houses for drying crops, which were usually dried on the roof or in the courtyard.
"It's about drying mountain products and drying grain. We can talk about this later! Auntie, help me ask first!"
"Although your house is a bit small, it can still be lived in. If it doesn't work, you can just renovate this old house!" Aunt Li felt sorry for the lady who had worked hard from dawn to dusk to earn some money, so she had to invest it in the house, but
I really can't bear it.
Then he thought of what happened today and said, "Renovate this courtyard wall as well, and then let my manhole make a strong gate for you!"
"Auntie, I'm a month old. Besides, I will make more and more money in the future. I know people but don't know their hearts..." Yi Ren did not continue, but Aunt Li already understood what she meant. Today's Chen Changsheng was the same as the Zheng family before.
These are all factors of instability. As they earn more and more money in the future, it will be even more difficult for them, who are orphans and widowed.
"Hey! Auntie also knows, but building a house is not that simple. It requires labor and materials, and it is not cheap! Auntie feels sorry for the money you have earned so hard!" Aunt Li sighed, understanding.
I can't persuade my lover.
"Auntie, let me tell you the truth. A brick house is worse, but for an adobe house, the money I have is enough."
In this era, kiln-fired bricks have appeared. Bricks with complete bricks and extremely hard surfaces are naturally unaffordable in the village, but ordinary or even burned bricks are very common. There are several brick-burning bricks in Lingzhou
Large kilns and kilns are also a major economic pillar of Lingzhou.
"Okay!" Aunt Li agreed immediately, thinking to herself that if her husband and son came back to help, the labor wages would be cheaper and the house would be better...
She was thinking in her mind, but when she raised her head, she saw the lady's disheveled hair covering her eyes. She was so distressed that she stretched out her hand tremblingly and tucked it behind her ear. "My lady, you're suffering!"
"It's okay, Auntie, it's not all over!" Yiren held Aunt Li's hand and almost shed tears. She didn't cry when she was hugged by Chen Changsheng, nor did she cry when he took off her clothes, but now she
My nose is terribly sore.
"Yiren, your uncle Ting and my four children are not at home. There are only me, your sister-in-law Sujuan, and two children at home. Before your house is built, please move to my place!" Aunt Li thought of what happened today.
, I was still scared for a while, worried that Yiren would be in danger if she lived here alone.
"Auntie, when my family builds a house, I will move to your place. But today, my family has just saved rice, flour, grains and oil, so I can't leave!" Yiren expected that after today's incident, Mrs. Chen would not be able to do anything this time.
No matter what, Chen Changsheng, huh, he has a wife who is always carrying a kitchen knife. This wife also has four burly brothers.
After talking for a while, Aunt Li asked her to lock the door at night and left with Sanmao and Simao who had just picked up Xiaotuanzi.
Yi Ren has been thinking about building a house for a while. This thatched house is fine in summer, but it leaks in winter. Will she have to confine herself in the heavy snow after giving birth?
I really don’t know how the original owner gave birth to Xiaotuanzi in such a simple environment and raised it to such a big size!
In addition, she runs a bakery stall, roasted seeds and nuts and Youth League business, and the low fence at home has no shielding effect at all. With a caring person like Mrs. Zheng, everyone will soon learn the lesson.
Moreover, Chen Changsheng's incident happened today, and Yicai discovered the safety issue that she had always ignored. She was pregnant with Liujia, and she was raising an orphan and a widowed mother in Xiaotuanzi. Every man in the family would earn money in the future. This was the case in the village.
