Chapter 190 We are a family, we must love each other
By the time all the ingredients were sold out, it was already dark.
A full moon hangs in the sky, and the little silver glow makes the night quiet and beautiful.
Shujia Restaurant, everyone gathers together.
Mrs. Shu brought out the stewed mutton and pork, put on the cold vegetables and seafood prepared in advance, and shouted: "dinner is ready!"
The next moment, the sound of clinking cups and clinking bowls and chopsticks filled the store happily.
After three drinks, Mrs. Shu took the opportunity to announce that her family was going to build a new house.
Old Shu, who was holding a jug and happily pouring wine for the village chief, shook his hands and was confused, "What, our family is going to build a new house? Why didn't I know?"
The village chief and Old Man Tang looked at the confused Old Man Shu, then looked at each other, showing sympathy in their eyes.
Alas, the status of Shu Guangzong's family is already ridiculously low!
Mrs. Shu glanced at him sideways and said, "Aren't you clamoring about the big blue brick house all day long? Now it's about to be built, and you're unhappy again?"
Old Man Shu grinned, raised his head and drank a glass of wine, "I'm happy, hehe, I can finally live in a new house. I, Shu Guangzong, have no regrets in my life!"
There was a burst of joking laughter in the store: "Oh, that's incredible! How long have we been in Qiongzhou? You are running a restaurant and building a new house. How are you going to make a living for us poor people?"
Old Man Shu continued: "You can't live anymore, right? There is a piece of tofu in the kitchen, why don't you go get it and hit yourself to death!"
The man laughed heartily, "Your tofu cow is made of stone, right?"
After the fun is over, it’s time to get down to business.
Mrs. Shu cleared her throat and said: "I have inquired about it. The porters at the dock earn more than 30 cash a day. As for me, I pay everyone 50 cash a day, regardless of lunch. If anyone is willing to help, just let me know.
become.
If you have relatives or friends at home who are willing to come, you can also tell me that I want to recruit more people and build the house as soon as possible so that I can live in a new house next year."
Shu Changshun interrupted abruptly: "Is Third Aunt afraid that we will make your family poor, so she doesn't dare to take care of lunch?"
Old Mrs. Shu wanted to hit him on the head, "What are you talking about? Are you such a stingy person? The main reason is that the restaurant has a good business at noon and we are too busy. Otherwise, I will bring you a few dishes to eat no matter what."
There were also a few shameless ones who clamored to come to the restaurant for lunch. As soon as they finished speaking, their parents pinched their ears, and the restaurant was filled with laughter and commotion.
After dinner, Old Man Shu brought the money box and paid everyone their wages as agreed.
Before the copper plate was poured out, the village chief pushed it back again, "Just keep it for yourself. We are all old acquaintances from the same village. Why do we care so much?"
As he spoke, he hooked Old Man Tang's shoulder, and the two of them left the restaurant chatting and laughing.
Even Mrs. Zhang, who loves to take advantage, refused to accept the money, "Speaking of which, we have to thank you. If you hadn't told us in advance that we wanted to buy stone mills and rollers, we would have spent a lot of money now!"
"The most irritating thing is that you may not be able to buy it if you spend money. I heard people say that all the rocks on the mountain that can be cut and polished have been hollowed out!" Mrs. Tian continued.
I couldn't stop talking about this topic once I started.
Everyone happily talked about all kinds of interesting things about boiling coconut oil, from how popular the stone mill was to how much firewood was burned at home during this period. They chatted all the way, and the laughter never stopped.
Before going to bed at night, Shu Laosan's family held a family meeting about building a new house.
According to state regulations, they only have the right to live in the house they live in now. If they want to demolish and rebuild a new house, they must first spend money to buy the homestead.
The specific operation is the same as before in my hometown. First, find the village chief to determine the location of the homestead you want to buy, then measure the size, and go to the county to pay money and go through the formalities.
"According to what I want, this time we will buy the front and back of the house, as well as the open space to the west, and build a big house so that there won't be enough room for people to come later. What do you think?"
Mrs. Shu was the first to ask the question.
Old man Shu echoed his wife's words without thinking: "Yes, I agree, I will do as you say."
"Grandma, I want a room with more cabinets. One cabinet for beautiful clothes, one cabinet for delicious food, and another cabinet for silver!"
Yan Yan couldn't wait to raise her hand to speak.
"Okay, okay, I'll leave you a room." Mrs. Shu rubbed her face with a smile, turned to ask the others, "What about you, if there is anything you want, take this opportunity to tell me."
Qingbai followed closely, "I also want a room with cabinets, one for food and another for food!"
Mrs. Shu smiled, "Okay, I'll ask your second uncle to make a few more cabinets later, and I'll give each of you two."
Shu Mingxin continued: "My request is not much, just stay away from Liu Liu's room."
Shu Mingwen turned his head slowly, his pupils gradually dilated, showing an expression of disbelief, "Fifth brother, you dislike me!"
Shu Mingxin touched his head and said earnestly, "Old Liu, I have tolerated you for so many years, it's time to get rid of you."
Shu Mingwen: "..."
Who can understand the feeling of heartbreak?
Mrs. Shu had thought of this a long time ago and said calmly: "I have already arranged a place for Lao Liu. His room is next to the kennel. Anyway, Little Black Bean can't understand him and won't be annoyed.
How nice would it be for the two of them to be companions and not be lonely?"
The little black bean who was listening in the corner jumped up when he heard the words. He pulled Shu Mingli's calf with his two front hooves and made a delicate humming sound from his mouth.
It's a pity that Shu Mingli only has Xu Ning in his heart and has completely forgotten about the good brother he once was.
Little Heidou waited for a long time without getting any response. He was so heartbroken that he left the main room with his tail hanging down.
If you bully it, it won't be able to speak, right?
Hum, it's going to run away from home!
Xiaotuanzi pointed at the back of Little Black Bean and laughed, "Grandma, look, Little Black Bean was so angry when he heard that he was going to be a neighbor with Uncle Six! Hahaha..."
"Even the dog doesn't want to live next to him. Forget it, let him sleep next to the kitchen." Mrs. Shu suppressed a smile and said.
Shu Mingwen was not convinced and wanted to fight for it again. He followed the steps of Little Heidou and walked out. As he walked, he said: "Little Heidou, let me tell you, this is wrong. We are a family, and a family must love each other..."
After one person and one dog left, the family continued to talk about their thoughts on their new home. Even Xu Ning and Yuan Nianyun were moved by the cheerful atmosphere and expressed a lot of their own views and opinions.
Finally, Shu Mingxin took out pen, ink, paper and inkstone and started sketching.
The only person in the family who remained silent was Shu Mingzhi. Because he felt guilty, he hid silently in the corner without daring to say a word.
But what is coming cannot be escaped.
Due to Yuan Nianyun's arrival, there were not enough beds at home, so someone had to make beds on the floor.
Not surprisingly, this spot fell to Shu Ming.
Mrs. Shu's voice was quite cold: "There is an open space in front of the stove. You can spread it with some straw and sleep on it."
