Rebirth begins with marrying an educated youth

Chapter 42 Building a House
At dinner time, the family gathers in the main room to eat.

Grandpa asked Ji Yuanhai about his busy schedule today, and learned that Ji Yuanhai went to Chenlou Village to find someone to build a house, so he nodded slightly: "Chenlou Village is the best place to build a house in ten miles and eight towns."

Ji Yuanhai's mother was originally angry with Ji Yuanhai and didn't want to talk to him, but after hearing this, she raised her head proudly: Chenlou Village is her natal home.

He coughed again deliberately: "I know a few people who work in Chen Lou."

After saying this, he quietly glanced at the sea of ​​​​Era to see if this disobedient brat was here to beg for him.

Ji Yuanhai didn't seem to hear his mother's words, and continued to eat sullenly, and even picked up a salty cicada monkey for his daughter-in-law Lu Heling.

When Ji Yuanhai's mother saw this scene, her forehead felt bulging.

Why doesn't this kid listen to me!
And Lu Heling, a female educated youth, you have so much money with you, you should have let me know, if I had known earlier, I would have had to...

Thinking of this, no matter how biased she is towards her natal family, she can't think about it anymore.

After all, uncooked rice has become cooked rice. This is his daughter-in-law, so he can no longer think nonsense.

I was just angry that the two of them were disobedient and "wasted money."

"Yuan Hai, how are you going to build it? Have you found the people? How much will it cost?"

Ji Yuanhai's father asked.

"Well, everything is ready." Ji Yuanhai said.

Seeing that he was unwilling to say more, his father gave him a slightly unhappy look.

This brat hasn't moved out yet, what are you doing hiding?

Grandma said, "That's all, all right, let's eat, what are you doing asking so much?"

"Yuan Hai has his own ideas, let's follow him and save our worries."

My father and mother didn't ask any more questions.

Ji Yuanhai smiled at his grandma, but unexpectedly, his grandma gave him a look - it's one thing to block Ji Yuanhai's words, and Ji Yuanhai is not happy about hiding from his elders.

Ji Yuanhai smiled smugly, and if it weren't for the elders who were so easy to point and ask the bottom line, he would be willing to say it.

Don't say it so clearly now.

After eating, Ji Yuanhai said to keep the door at home, and went to the ditch to catch the fish for tomorrow and the day after tomorrow.

Lu Heling sent him to the door, and simply followed him out in the night.

Using a flashlight, walking along the path next to Liu Xianglan's mother and daughter's adobe hut, Ji Yuanhai and Lu Heling came to a ditch not far from the village.

Lu Heling turned on the flashlight, and before he could see anything in the water, Ji Yuanhai had already stood on the shore, knelt down and reached out to fish in the water, and he caught a carp weighing more than two catties.

"It's not bad luck... The heavy rain a few days ago fattened up the fish."

Ji Yuanhai said.

Lu Heling was also very happy: "Yuan Hai, your ability to catch fish is really great!"

"Give fish to the working masters tomorrow, and they will be happy to eat it."

Ji Yuanhai smiled and groped along the river, but within half an hour he caught more than ten loaches, three eels, two silver carp weighing more than a catty, and one catfish weighing more than a catty.

With the addition of more than two catties of carp, this is enough to entertain Chen Liangxian and his three master workers.

Lu Heling held the carp in one hand and held a flashlight in the other, happily praising Ji Yuanhai's ability to catch fish.

Ji Yuanhai smiled at her and said, "I still haven't run out of skills, I'll go back tonight, let's..."

Lu Heling's hand trembled slightly: "Yuan Hai, do you want to do so many times today?"

"Is that much?" Ji Yuanhai was a little strange.

"I feel like it's a bit too much." Lu Heling said shyly, "Don't be angry, I just feel like I can't take a break, sometimes I have to take a break, right?"

After hearing this, Ji Yuanhai felt a little helpless.

To say that she hasn't had enough fun yet, Lu Heling... her body is no less than that of an ordinary working woman, and she is even a little more tolerant, so why...

Forget it, you can’t really tire your wife out, right?

"Let's take a break today? Just two times?"

Lu Heling was immediately overjoyed: "Okay! Two times is enough!"

While talking, the couple passed by the residence of Liu Xianglan's mother and daughter.

Lu Heling glanced with her flashlight and was startled when she saw someone at the door.

After a closer look, it turned out that Liu Xianglan was at the door of the house, making a simple bed for Wang Xiaohong out of stones and soil, and was fanning Wang Xiaohong to sleep.

Ji Yuanhai and Lu Heling didn't feel the heat, but it was a few days of sweltering heat.

The adobe houses in the countryside do not have rear windows, and there is no ventilation at all, so it is inevitable to sweat all night.

Sleeping outside the house is better.

Lu Heling's flashlight shone over, and a group of mosquitoes also gathered along the light.

Liu Xianglan, who was wearing sweatshirts and bulging bags, had already recognized Ji Yuanhai and his wife. She turned around and said hello: "Yuan Hai, have you two caught a cicada?"

"No, I went to catch fish." Ji Yuanhai said.

Wang Xiaohong, who was a little sleepy just now, "fluttered" and sat up: "Uncle Yuan Hai, did you catch any fish?"

"I caught it." Ji Yuanhai showed her the fish he caught.

Wang Xiaohong was amazed and came over to circle around the fish: "Uncle Yuan Hai, you are so amazing! You caught so many big fish, some big and some small!"

Ji Yuanhai smiled: "Do you want one?"

Wang Xiaohong ran back to Liu Xianglan and shook her head: "Uncle Yuan Hai, I don't want it!"

Liu Xianglan also quickly said: "Yes, Yuan Hai, it's not easy to eat and drink these days, don't do that!"

Perhaps it was because of being in front of Lu Heling, but Liu Xianglan was extremely firm in her refusal.

Ji Yuanhai didn't insist, he greeted them again, and left with Lu Heling.

Go home and give the fish to grandma.

Grandma was also happy to have such a harvest, and quickly put the fish away.

After returning to the house and closing the door, Ji Yuanhai and Lu Heling got close to each other twice.

Lu Heling kissed him twice apologetically, and then fell asleep.

Early the next morning, Ji Yuanhai got up and went to the south of the village where he built his house.

Lu Heling originally wanted not to go to work but to help, but because grandma said it yesterday, Lu Heling still went to work today.

Chen Liang first led two other workers, and soon after he pulled a flatbed truck and arrived with shovels, clay tablets and other working tools.

Get to know each other, start working, and say nothing.

Ji Yuanhai didn't just copy his hands and watch from the sidelines as a supervisor.

After drawing the foundation area, Chen Liang and the other three began digging. They had to dig out the soft topsoil before they could start compacting the foundation.

Ji Yuanhai picked up a shovel and helped dig the soil.

After Chen Liang first told him the tips, Ji Yuanhai was not afraid of the hot weather and was not too tired. He worked quickly and well. One person could do as well as two people.

Chen Liangxian and the three of them looked at the mound dug out by Ji Yuanhai, their mouths half-opened involuntarily.

This "master" started to work like two big animals!
When it was time for lunch, grandma brought steamed buns and stewed fish cubes with chili and eggplant.

Chen Liangxian and the other three were quite surprised to see the oily dishes with large pieces of fish.

This home is really good. Not only does it have meat, but it is also willing to put oil and salt!
