Chapter 12: Simple Villagers
"Second brother, Dongqiu is so lively. Uncle Six is digging with many people. Yaya's mother has also gone, Aunt Hua, Ergou's father, and Daniu's parents have also gone......"
Beside Xi Yunfei, the third sister was holding a sweet bun, chewing her fingers while counting the villagers who helped build the public toilet. Although many of them did not recognize Xi Yunfei, she still responded to the little girl so that she would not feel bored.
On the side, the eldest brother was making a fire and was eating steamed buns in his mouth. How many of them were this? Since the first steamed bun was released, Xi Yunfei had never stopped.
Liu put the cooked fish soup on the cart. Dabao and Chou Niang hurried over and pushed the cart: "Erlang, we are going to go over, do you want to go together?" Dabao shouted.
Xi Yunfei nodded and said, "I want it, I want to go and have a look, otherwise I won't feel at ease."
The group pushed a cart full of food and walked slowly towards the Dongqiu. This Dongqiu is a small hill southeast of Xi Yunfei's house. It is surrounded by farmland and the hills are very flat. It used to be a platform for drying grains.
The public toilet is covered on the hill, which can make the height difference so that the excrement can be easily discharged into the septic tank on the slope. Moreover, there is a stream on the north side of the east hill, which is very convenient to get water.
However, his home is indeed very close to this place. Xi Yunfei asked everyone to help build the toilet in the name of the public. This is indeed a bit unkind, so the meal was prepared particularly richly.
"Come on, uncles and aunts, don't be busy now. Wash your hands and let's have a meal." Xi Yunfei and the other two pushed the cart up the hill and began to greet everyone for dinner.
The white and fat big white steamed buns have a sweet flour aroma, and the hot fish soup is cooked like soy milk, which makes everyone after some work hard and can't help but swallow their saliva.
Uncle Six was not polite when he saw this. He didn't wash his hands, so he just wiped his pants, then picked up a steamed bun and started eating.
Seeing this, Dabao looked at Xi Yunfei embarrassedly, but the latter didn't care: "Dabao, ugly mom, please help everyone serve fish soup."
"Why!"
"Huh? This is a steamed cake? Why is it so soft!!!" Uncle Six took a bite of the steamed bun and asked in surprise.
Xi Yunfei nodded: "I call it steamed buns, and it's just right to eat it with fish soup. If Uncle Six likes it, eat more. Everyone lets go and eat it. I'm full."
"Haha, you kid is too real. If you have enough, Sister Liu won't scold me to death. Just eat two of them by one person. In the past, two steamed cakes in the county cost a penny, which is very expensive."
The others nodded when they heard this. After eating one of the women, they still wanted to wrap the remaining one with tree leaves and said they would take it back for their families to try it out.
"This." Xi Yunfei was really speechless. He really planned to be full. His family is still steaming.
"No, Uncle Six, and all uncles and aunts, don't interfere. I really care about it. Where can I eat one? Ask Dabao, how many he has just eaten?"
Everyone was stunned when they heard this, and Uncle Six even glared at Dabao.
Dabao was stunned for a moment and stretched out a finger with difficulty.
"One?" Uncle Six comforted her. It was indeed his own son, and he knew the importance of it.
"Ten." Dabao added.
"What? Ten? That's not five cents?" Uncle Six was really angry this time.
Xi Yunfei hurriedly stood up and said speechlessly: "Don't be angry, I have really prepared a lot of steamed buns. Now my family is still steaming. I will deliver them to you later. Just open your stomach and eat them."
"That's it." Dabao hid behind Xi Yunfei and said to his father: "Dalang and Aunt Liu are still steaming. Seventy were placed in the second furnace, and fifty were added here, a total of..........................."
"There are 100 and 20 in total. Uncle Six, and uncles and aunts, let go and eat them. Erlang doesn't care. You are pretentious." The ugly lady brought the fish soup to Uncle Six in anger. She was an impatient person and hated the most disgusting person.
Uncle Six's face turned red, and when the little girl said this, it was his own fault. He looked at Xi Yunfei in disappointment and said, "Okay, but eating is definitely not possible if you open it. One person... One person has five, and the extra one is just to treat it as wages."
The foreman said, and the villagers who came to help had no objection. Moreover, the help of the same village was basically just a snack. Now Xi Yunfei not only cared for two meals, but also made people open the fish soup steamed cakes, which was indeed atmospheric.
After dinner, Uncle Liu took Xi Yunfei to visit the construction site.
The public toilet is 10 meters long and 5 meters wide. It is divided into two sides of men and women. There are ten pits on both sides. There are less than two hundred people in Xiagou Village, which is enough for everyone to use.
"By the way, when will the pipeline on Second Master be done?" Xi Yunfei asked while gnawing on the steamed buns.
Uncle Six also took a bite and bulged his mouth, "I just measured it tomorrow afternoon, and there are 600 pieces of pottery pipes in total."
"So many, will the construction be completed tomorrow?" Xi Yunfei asked in surprise.
Uncle Six nodded, "You know your second master's character. You saved Dashan. He is planning to repay his kindness. I called ten helpers here, and he paid twenty out of his own pocket. I heard that he spent all the money for Dashan to marry a wife."
"What?" Xi Yunfei was so upset when he heard this. Why did he forget that the second master also needed help.
If Uncle Six hadn't spoken too much here, the Second Master probably wouldn't have told him. Xi Yunfei patted his head in shame and looked at the direction of the village in anger. There was a yard where there was a rolling smoke at this time. It was the backyard of the Second Master's house, and it was probably burning pottery pipes.
Xi Yunfei is not a pretentious person. The second master wants to repay his kindness, but he doesn't object, but he is troubled by Dashan's wife, which makes him difficult for him to be a human being. It is definitely not possible to stop him now. The second master will definitely not compromise, and it may also affect Dashan's condition.
The father and son wanted a peace of mind, and Xi Yunfei could give it to him, but they could not stop Xi Yunfei from using other methods to repay their efforts. If you have kindness, Xi Yunfei is not an ungrateful guy.
It was dark in Dongqiu and the group dispersed, and only then did Xi Yunfei walk home.
He said to his mother who was placing the soles of his shoes: "Mom, steam an extra 100 steamed buns tomorrow and send them to the second master."
Liu was stunned when he heard this, but he didn't ask anything. He smiled and nodded, and then continued the work at hand.
At this time, the eldest brother walked in from outside the yard with his third sister in his arms. Both of them had wet hair. They probably went to take a shower in the stream. Now the little girl is still young and has nothing to cover.
Xi Yunfei looked at the direction of the stream and felt distressed. After solving the problem of public toilets, the next step was to be a bathhouse, then build a house, build a road, and find ways to make money... I thought I could live a leisurely life, but why did I feel that I was getting busy?
I have been in this world for five days and spent the last two days in a thrilling state.
However, with family company these days, Xi Yunfei loves such an atmosphere so much. The kind mother, the arrogant elder brother, and the cute little sister, marry another wife in the future. This kind of life is simply too good, hahahaha...
Bang ~
"Why are you smirking?" The eldest brother gave Xi Yunfei a chestnut ruthlessly.
"I'll go, ahhhhhh, murder my brother."
In the yard, there was a full-minded Xi Yunfei missing, and there was a Xi family Erlang rolling all over the ground.
"Hahaha·······"
