Chapter 964 The building is ready (7000 words)(2/3)

"Would it be that if I just let it go, I would not want to study anymore, but would want to herd sheep more?"

"Well……"

Ye Yaodong looked at Ye Xiaoxi who was squatting to peel beans, and he was really a little unsure. Compared with the boys, this child was no less generous and just as naughty.

Could it be that by then you will really like herding sheep and no longer want to study?

"Let's see next year."

"Has your father-in-law called me in the past two days?"

"Didn't I just come back yesterday? I heard him talk a few days ago. There were people who were hesitant, but those who were hesitant disappeared again. There was only one shop around Gate 4 that wanted to sell it, but the price would increase by 500 yuan. I

I just thought I’d leave it alone.”

"It's better to leave it alone first, the surrounding area is still desolate."

"After the store where I originally put the warehouse was vacated, I rented it out immediately. When the house is finished, I will go over to settle the bill and collect the rent."

"Are you so unhappy? Just free up the position and you will get money immediately."

"Yes, I will rely on this rent collection to support myself in the future."

The two of them sat at the door and chatted. The women on the other side were also chattering non-stop. It wasn't until Ye's mother came back that everyone looked over.

Before Mother Ye could sit down, she started scolding her again, "When she saw me coming, she immediately ran away. Before I could even get in front of her, she was gone. I sat directly in front of her house and waited.

After a while, I waited until she came back and said she was going to the toilet, bah."

"It turns out that I also felt that I was in the wrong, but I still had that face and told me that the engagement was divorced anyway. In the old days, it was almost the same as divorce..."

"It makes me angry. If my daughter says this to her, I will tear her mouth apart."

"Oh, this is too much. How can you say such things?" Lin Xiuqing also frowned.

Sister-in-law Ye also agreed, "Even if you want to marry someone, you can't be so demeaning."

Aguang's face turned green, "Next time you come to my door, Huimei remember to take a broom and drive something out."

Ye Huimei was a little embarrassed and couldn't help but look at this and that. Lin Xiuqing patted her comfortingly.

Ye Mu then continued: "I asked her not to stay there in such a shabby and disgusting way. Otherwise, if she comes here two more times, she won't even be a relative in the future. She might even mess up Ah Sheng's life. Let's see what she does then."

If his son doesn't blame him to death, who will provide for him in his old age?"

"When I'm old, I eat it into a dog's belly. I don't know what is suitable and what is inappropriate. I can only dream about it all day long."

"I told her that if she really wants to marry Asheng a wife, she should go to the nearby villages to see if there are any girls whose families were forced to divorce, who seem to be reliable, or widows with better personalities, etc.

You’re trying to trick people again.”

"As long as Ah Sheng is willing to work, her life will be fine in the future. Let her stop thinking about other things and marry a suitable wife seriously. She should hurry up and have children while she is still young. If she has one or two, won't her life just be peaceful and harmonious?

Beautiful?"

"That's the truth!"

"That's it, find a suitable person, get married as soon as possible, and have a child or two while you're young, wouldn't it make your life better?"

"How can a single man live a decent life? It is only serious to find a suitable woman and marry him as soon as possible."

"Yes, don't be so big-hearted. Aguang's family is so rich and well-off now. There is nothing she can think of."

Neighbors nearby agreed.

Marrying a good wife saves thirty years of hard work. In addition, if the wife is well-behaved and virtuous, isn't that what a man dreams of?

However, you also need to have capital to make a living.

Ye Yaodong touched his face. He was pretty good at getting married. How could Brother Asheng have that kind of money? It would be better to marry a pretty and peaceful widow, or a divorced young woman with a good temper and good character.

"So, I told her all the truth to see if she could listen. If she couldn't listen, there's really no way to go. She could just go to the dark side and be killed."

His mother didn't come directly to the door and opened her mouth to scold him. She could still be reasonable and explain it clearly to his second aunt? This was unprecedented.

After saying this, Mother Ye looked at Ye Huimei, "If she doesn't carry the money yet and comes to your house to ask you to match her or directly propose marriage, don't be polite. Don't care whether it is your second aunt or not, just drive her out and tell her that there is no way.

"

Ye Huimei looked at everyone and nodded in agreement.

Aguang was also satisfied.

On this issue, the women nearby started a lot of discussions. Mainly, they all had nothing to do. The men were all at sea. They looked after the house, mended the nets, and tidied the vegetable plots.

.

Lin Xiuqing finished her breakfast and took out the shells of the large bag of emperor beans she had picked a few days ago.

When the emperor beans are picked, as long as the outer shell is not peeled off, the beans inside will still be fresh. It is a good time to build a house during this period and consume some of these vegetables, otherwise the whole family will not be able to finish them all.

The neighbors on the left and right had nothing to do, so they each moved a small bench and sat down to help peel the shells. By the way, we chatted and chatted. Sister Aguang's incident just brought a topic for everyone to discuss.

Aguang stayed for a while and then went back on his bicycle. He also had work to do in the fields, leaving Huimei to play with the children for a while.

Lin Xiuqing saw Ye Yaodong sitting there idle, and gave him a basket of potatoes and a planer to help him find some work.

Ye Yaodong looked at the planer forced into his hand, "I'm going to the workshop, why are you giving me this?"

"Isn't it just looking at you sitting there idle?"

"You're kidding, who told you I'm very free? I've sent the twins over to help with the work. Of course I have to go to the workshop to help them look after them. I'm leaving."

Why does he still have to work when there are people helping him? Shouldn't he sit down and take a break as a matter of course?

Anyway, sitting in the workshop is also working.

Next time he won't show his face in front of them after dinner. As long as he doesn't show his face, he is busy and doing something.

Ye Yaodong ran to the workshop and stayed for a while, but he couldn't sit still. It was too boring to be alone, right?

After thinking about it, he ran home again and took out the basketball hidden at home. If he had known better, he would not have let A Guang go back just now. The two of them would have company when playing ball.

Lin Xiuqing, who was behind her, looked at his back and muttered, "An excuse to run away again."

In the afternoon, Ye Yaodong woke up from his nap before actually working. He moved all the rolls of nylon bags at home and pulled them to the workshop on a pallet truck.

Then he asked the twins to help with the work. They tied the nylon bags piece by piece to the bamboo poles and propped them up above the workshop in case it rained at night or tomorrow.

The weather forecast says it may be windy and rainy tomorrow, but who knows whether tomorrow will be night or day. Weather forecasts are never accurate, so it is better to take precautions early.

There will be autumn rains and cold weather, and rain will inevitably follow. The weather in the past 20 days has been considered good, with no rain and cloudy days at most, but it is hard to say what will happen next.

In the evening, they also paid attention to the weather forecast at 7:30. Yesterday it was reported to rain, and tonight it was indeed reported that the temperature would drop and it would rain tomorrow.

And this time the weather forecast was accurate, and it started to rain lightly at night. Even when he slept shirtless at night, he felt a little cold. He even pulled the quilt to cover himself and his wife and daughter tightly.

When he got up the next morning, as soon as he opened the window to take a look at the weather outside, he suddenly shivered from the cold, then immediately pulled back and put on the sweater that Ah Qing had prepared for him and placed beside the bed.

The rain is still pouring down outside.

After twenty days of good weather, only half of the house was built, and the beams had not yet been installed. Only a row of beams on the second floor had been erected, the layout was separated with wooden boards, and the floor was laid.

This is okay, and you won’t be afraid of rain. Before work yesterday, the workers used a nylon bag to cover the top layer, so that the rain could not get inside the house.

Taking advantage of the rain in the past few days, it's time for the carpenters to measure the dimensions and build the stairs. When the beams are installed, the stairs can be built.

As soon as he walked out of the room, the old lady was worried.

"At this time, I don't know how long it will be delayed if it rains. I don't know if it will rain later. At most, the house will be built in about ten days."

"It's been sunny for about 20 days, and it's pretty good, and the progress is pretty fast. Anyway, there's a nylon bag covering the top, and it's fixed with a pile of bricks, and the corners are tied up. As long as there's no strong wind, it can't be blown away.

.”

"It will be easier to finish it earlier. The weather will get cold soon. Fortunately, the second floor slab has been laid first, otherwise it will be even colder in the open air at night. The two children sleep without a quilt at night. I got up at night to cover them with two quilts."

Quilt."

"It's almost here. It won't be long. It's already much faster than expected." Ye Yaodong also said aloud, and then walked towards the door to take a look outside.

A group of chickens and ducks were hiding under the porch to take shelter from the rain. Every one of them was a soaked chicken, soaked in water.

For the first time today, the dogs did not stay in the sidecars. They all huddled in their kennels to take shelter from the rain. In the past few days, the dogs would jump into the sidecars and sleep huddled together at night. It was rare that it rained today, so every one of them

They are all reluctant to move.

He went behind the door to get an umbrella, put on his rain boots and went to the workshop, intending to take a look.

Last night, some of the dried shrimps had been collected in advance, and a small number of larger ones were not yet completely dried. He told Wang Guangliang to collect them in advance if it rained at night.

As soon as he arrived at the workshop, he saw that each of the twins took a stick and poked the water in the nylon bag on the top, tilting it down first to avoid bearing too much weight and weighing it down.

The fishing nets hanging in the open space were all put away, making it look empty.

He told the two of them that there was no need to stay here. It happened to be raining, so they could go back and rest for a day, and then come back in the evening to see if the Harvest had returned.

Haven't come back? Then continue to rest. If you come back, then you can only continue working overnight.

The rain kept falling for four or five days in a row before it stopped, but the sun did not come out. It was always overcast. It stayed overcast for half a month and then continued to rain. During this period, the wind also came up intermittently.

Their boat has only gone out to sea three times in more than 20 days, and spent most of the rest of the time resting.

During the past few days of rainy weather, the temperature kept falling and rebounding, rising and falling repeatedly, and then dropped completely bit by bit.
