Chapter 39 Buying Land and Building a House

But sorrow returns to sorrow, what should be done is still to do, this heavy rain comes and goes quickly, but the damage is not small.

Although the old man in the village said that such heavy rain is rare in decades, in order to be caught by surprise, Lizheng took the young men to widen the river a lot, and added a lot more. of the ditch.

The weather was clear and the sun was shining brightly. When Murong Zhe brought his children to Lizheng's house early in the morning, Lizheng was worried about the future of Lihua Village.

The fall harvest this year is sure to seriously reduce production, and I don’t know if the imperial court will give them a tax cut.

But even if it is reduced, it cannot be reduced by much, especially for people whose food storage is flooded, I am afraid that they will tighten their belts now to live.

After the replanting was finished, some young and strong people in the family began to plan to go to the city to work.

But there is an entry fee of five cents to enter the city. Some people went in for a few days, because they were illiterate, not only did they not find a job, but they also wasted dozens of cents, and gradually no one wanted to go out.

Rizheng's wife, Mi Shi, saw her husband's sad face as soon as she entered the main room, and she felt bad in her heart.historical

In the past few days, her husband has been insomnia all day and all night. She can see why she is worried about the future of Lihua Village, and said softly: "My child's father, there are guests at home."

Li raised his head when he heard the voice, saw Murong Zhe's family coming, he got up quickly.

Murong Kuan quickly took out the gift from the bamboo basket and put it on the table.

"Uncle Zhuang, thanks to you for taking care of me during this time, this is a little bit of my heart, please don't dislike it."

Li Zheng looked at the packaging and knew that it was the pastry from Yuxiangzhai, the most famous dim sum shop in the capital, and the meat next to him was at least three or four kilograms. He was immediately displeased and said, "Azhe, what are you spending money on? Take it back and hurry up. Take it back, give it to your daughter, and make up for her."

Murong Zhe smiled and said: "Uncle Zhuang has helped us a lot these days, which is right. Besides, we came here today to ask you for something. If you don't accept it, I don't dare to say it. I won't bother you any more."

Immediately after, he said his future intentions.

The three of them have negotiated over the past few days. The money they got a few days ago is temporarily used to build a house and buy land. The money is not much, but it is possible to solve the current predicament.

Li was listening to the fact that they were going to buy land to build a house, and was immediately distracted and said in surprise, "Are you going to buy land to build a house?"

Murong Zhe nodded awkwardly.

Murong Lingran saw that his father was a little uncomfortable, and understood that he was embarrassed to say the source of the money.

After all, the money came too easily, and Dad had a pure character, and it was normal to feel uneasy, so he briefly explained what happened on the mountain that day for him.

"That's the way it is, we are lucky." Murong Lingran said softly.

"It seems that good people have good rewards." Li Zheng suddenly realized, and said seriously: "Then who do you want to find to build a house, do you have a choice in your heart?"

"We are new here and we are not familiar with the people in the village, so I asked Uncle Zhuang to help me find some reliable ones and build a simple house like this."

After Murong Zhe finished speaking, Murong Lingran handed a blueprint to Lizheng.

In the past few days, they have been discussing what house to build, and after discussing for a long time, they listened to Murong Zhe's opinion.

Follow the local customs. Most of the houses in Lihua Village are built like they are. They are not ostentatious, but not too low-key.
