After the matter of building a house was agreed upon, the whole family was very excited, especially Mrs. Li, who rubbed her hands and walked around in the yard, "Mom, are we really going to build a big house?"
Bai Yunxi looked at her happy look and pointed to the homestead at her feet.
"We can just build a big yard on the spot. Fortunately, our land is big enough, so we don't need to buy it from the village. The front and back yards combined are nearly two acres in size, which is enough for our family to live in."
"Mom, you need to plan carefully. What kind of yard is suitable for you to build?"
Li listened, her eyes sparkling, she clapped her hands,
"Mom is right, we have a big family, so we need to build a big yard."
"Ahem... Li, please stop saying a few words. Building a big yard is not something you can just talk about. It will cost a lot of money. Our family's conditions are limited, so we have to do what we can."
Bai Anyan glared at his wife, then turned to look at Baiyun River. The house he built at home depended entirely on the food harvested in the summer. Without careful planning, things could easily go wrong.
"Mom, my son agrees to build a house. Mother Jianda has made a good plan... If it's too difficult, don't force it. At most, it's okay to expand slowly like dad did before."
After listening to the second brother's reminder, Bai Yunxi looked up at him, but she didn't blame him.
"You are right. Some things must be done within your capabilities and you cannot be blindly arrogant. Therefore, I will consider it carefully."
Bai Anyan's anxious heart immediately calmed down after listening to his mother's tone. He was really afraid that his mother would make a big move and waste money, which would lead to trouble if he couldn't hold it in the end.
"We have a large family. The fourth and fifth children will also marry and have children in the future. When the time comes, we will have a lot of wives, children and grandchildren. If we can do it all in one step, we will save the last trouble."
When everyone heard this, they all turned their attention to Xiao Wu, waiting for his answer.
Because of this, Lao Juren did not insist and just built a few shacks here. Now it is more convenient for their mothers.
How about doing what you say you can do within your ability?
Seeing his speechless expression, Bai Yunxi raised her eyebrows and turned to look at Xiao Wu sitting next to him.
"You are the smartest one in our family, but what do you have to say?"
Hearing Xiao Wu's reminder, several people couldn't help but remain silent, especially Bai Yunxi, who was stunned for a moment, and finally understood after looking through the memory of the original owner.
When Lao Juren first bought this piece of land at the head of the village, he originally planned to build a private school, but his uncle later stopped him, saying that the land for the ancestral hall was spacious and could be used as he pleased.
Unfortunately, before he could feel happy, his mother dashed his hopes.
Bai Anyan: "..."
Being stared at by her mother, brother and sister-in-law, Xiao Wu was not nervous at all and glanced around lightly.
"When it comes to building a house, my father has the foresight. If he hadn't bought this piece of land at the entrance of the village, our family would really have no place to stay."
It is somewhat wasteful to build a private school on the purchased homestead land. There are many children in the family, and the tree has big branches. Sooner or later the family will be separated. It is better to leave it to the children to build a house in the future, which can also save a lot of trouble.
Looking at it now, it seems like a blessing in disguise.
Otherwise, they would lose their private school, and they would have to go through a lot of troubles to protect their homestead.
Thinking of this, Bai Yunxi curled the corners of his lips. Lao Juren, as a father, was like a wax torch. He burned himself completely for the sake of his children, leaving a piece of homestead unintentionally.
"Xiao Wu is right. In order to keep your father informed underground, we have to build a high-rise courtyard to rest in peace for your father's spirit in heaven."
