Chapter 144 144. Renovating the house

"Okay, I understand, then you can buy some food and come back! You can also buy some vegetables. The leftover vegetables may not be enough at night. If there are eggs, buy some eggs, come back," Lin Qingxi nodded and took the receipt into her bag.

"Okay, then I'll go out," Zhou Mingbai said, and went to the kitchen to get a big sack and went there.

After Zhou Mingming left, Lin Qingxi sat in the living room without moving. Zhou Mingren took his younger brothers and sisters to clean the cabinet. The saying that there were many people and powerful people was reflected at this time. In less than ten minutes, several cabinets were cleaned and moved to the corner to dry.

Fortunately, the weather is getting hot and the temperature is rising. The cabinets are drying quickly in the yard. After a while, Lin Qingxi remembered that the clothes everyone changed last night had not been washed yet. She hurriedly took Xiang Yijing and Xie Lu to start washing clothes in the yard. After washing the clothes, they were directly hung in the yard.

Lin Qingxi raised her wrist and looked at her watch. It was already five o'clock. The next second, a knock on the door sounded. She guessed that the person who gave the bricks should have come. When she opened the door, she saw that it was indeed the person who gave the bricks.

"Comrade, is this Zhou Mingbai's home? He ordered a batch of bricks here," he asked quickly when he saw the door open.

"Yes, I'll open the door for you right away," Lin Qingxi said, and immediately went back to the room to take the key next door. After she opened the door next door, she called the children at home to help carry the bricks on the cart into the yard and put them in.

The children and the four people who sent the bricks ran more than ten times before they removed all the bricks. Everyone was so tired that they were all over. Xiang Yijing and Xie Lu hurried to the next door to start the cool Liangbai to drink water to quench their thirst.

"Big girl, you dial it in. This is 20,000 bricks and 30 packs of cement. Brother Zhou gave him a deposit of fifty, and there were still 368 yuan in the final payment," After sitting for a while, drinking some water, the person who delivered the bricks also came to his rescue.

"I know, he told me, this is the remaining balance, and you have worked hard," Lin Qingxi took out a stack of money readily, counted 368 yuan and handed it over.

"Girl is so happy. Brother Zhou also asked a few of us brothers to work. I want to ask, when will it start?" The man continued to ask. It turned out that Zhou Ming not only bought bricks from them, but also asked a few of them to work and build a house.

"Let's start tomorrow! How did he tell you? Because there are so many things, he didn't have time to tell me about this," Lin Qingxi asked with a smile. Zhou Ming knew that he really didn't have time to tell her, so she didn't know who Zhou Ming had found to work.

"Brother Zhou told us to work and build a house, and work for one dollar a day for lunch," the man truthfully told the treatment he and Zhou Mingxiu had negotiated.

"Okay, then that's it! You can come tomorrow morning. We will make lunch. As for what we eat, it's the same as us. You will eat whatever we eat," Lin Qingxi nodded. The matter was settled, and the man agreed.

After the matter was settled, the man took the remaining three people away and pushed the cart away. After the person left, Lin Qingxi locked the door and took the children back to the next door.

Seeing that it was getting late, Lin Qingxi was about to go to make dinner when she saw the gate of the yard being pushed open. Zhou Mingbai came back with a full sack, carrying half a sack in his hand. Lin Yizheng was Lin Yirong following him, and the two of them were carrying a lot of things in their hands.

"You are back, and I'm still worried about dinner," Lin Qingxi said as she walked towards Zhou Mingbai. She took the sack he was carrying and went back to the kitchen.

"Well, I bought a lot of things and took a little longer. This chicken will be stewed tomorrow! I bought a pair of pigs and went to water, and bought some eggs and vegetables to come back."

Zhou Mingbai said that, put down the sacks carried on his shoulders, and Lin Yizheng and the brothers also put the things on their hands in the kitchen and went to the living room to rest.

"Okay, then I'll make soup with the bones, put some cakes on it, make some cucumbers, and stir-fry some vegetables," Lin Qingxi said while starting work.

"Has the bricks been sent here? I forgot to tell you that I asked those people to work, one dollar a day to pack lunch," Zhou Mingbai put down the things and rubbed his shoulders.

"I understand. I agreed with them to come to work tomorrow. Then let Yizheng and others help you and ask Jingjing and Lulu to help me cook together. I guess my brother and the others will arrive in the next few days."

Lin Qingxi said as she took out the things in the sack, each of which was brown rice and rice, and a small bag of cornmeal. She weighed each of them, which was about fifty kilograms. She looked at other things, including a pair of pigs and two chickens, as well as seven or eight kilograms of common vegetables such as potatoes, eggplant, beans, cucumbers, tomatoes, and thirty eggs.

"I think that there are many people eating these days and I have to do physical work, so I bought more," Zhou Mingbai looked at the piles of things on the ground and whispered.

"I have used up the money I gave you? Do you want to get some more?" Lin Qingxi looked up at Zhou Mingming, and her heart was warm. As expected, the person who had you in her heart would naturally consider you.

"No need for now. I'll eat the food at home these days. I'll buy it after I finish eating," Zhou Mingbai shook his head. He had to work these days, so he couldn't go out to buy it every day! It's a waste of time.

"Okay, I understand. Brother Ming, please help me wash this pair of pigs with the ash in the stove. I'll boil the bones," Lin Qingxi said, and went to the living room to call Zhou Mingren over to burn the fire for herself, and then called Xiang Yijing and Xie Lu to wash vegetables.

After Lin Qingxi put the bean bones and potatoes in the pot, she started to knead the noodles and prepared to paste the cakes. After kneading the noodles, she put them on the stove to wake up the noodles. She went to cut vegetables. She cut the eggplant and beans washed by Xiang Yijing and Xie Lu and put them in the pot to stew them together. As for the washed water spinach, it was only allowed to be boiled in the pot when it was out of the pot.

"Auntie, the stew in the pot is almost done, you can put on cakes," Xiang Yijing added firewood to the stove, and then opened the lid of the pot and looked at it. She found that the stew was stewed so much that she hurriedly shouted to Lin Qingxi who was washing vegetables by the well.

"Okay, I'll come now," Lin Qingxi washed the handle and started pasting the pancakes. She didn't say anything about the pancakes that were covered with Yanbian. She covered the remaining ones and then simmered them for a few minutes before she could eat them.

"Jingjing, you and Lulu can set up the dishes and chopsticks. Let's ask your uncle not to wash it anymore and eat first," Lin Qingxi calculated the time. After simmering for five minutes, she uncovered the lid of the pot, shoveled out the pancakes first, and then put the beating bones into the basin.

"I'll do it! I'll bring it to the table, you don't have to get started," Zhou Mingbai saw Lin Qingxi preparing to serve the dishes that had just been cooked. He quickly stopped him and brought it to the table in the living room by himself.
