Chapter 58
Today, in addition to the master bricklayer, there are also carpenters who came to repair Lu Changhua's warehouse. Several laborers also came to help mix the ash, carry ash, and move bricks.

The warehouse does not need to be kept warm, it just needs to be protected from moisture, wind and rain.

The walls are made of two or four bricks. Even though they are half-bricks, they can still be built, but they just don’t look good.

Because the wall is thin, it is necessary to add load-bearing columns. A reinforced concrete column is added every few meters. This is for load-bearing, and ring beams are placed above and below.In fact, except for the thin walls, this house is as strong as other houses.

The construction site is in full swing.

The roar of tractors at the bottom of the Babei ditch never stopped.

Lu Changhua and Hu Dagui have their own affairs, so they will not reach out.

The two came to the wasteland on the west side, looking for the spring in their memory.

This time I brought Hu Dagui's precious iron gun with me.

Just use this thing to poke into the ground.

When you see water, prick it twice. What if the spring water gushes out when you shoot it?
The two of them dug into the ground in alternating shifts, both exhausted and covered in sweat, but it was still useless.

The people who built the house laughed when they saw it.

"Xiao Lu, where are you robbing the tomb?"

"I see, it's prospecting."

"Nonsense, you are obviously detecting landmines."

"Ha ha ha ha!"

These bricklayers laughed.

Hu Dagui, holding his iron gun and panting, stared at these guys watching the excitement.

"You know what a fart! We are..."

Before he could finish speaking, Lu Changhua pulled him.

Hu Dagui said half of his words before holding back.

"Then what do you think you are doing?!"

"Yes, tell me!"

"Hahahaha!"

Hu Dagui glared at him, and stopped breathing, but stabbed his gun into the ground with all his might, as if in a fit of anger.

"Okay, let's make a mark. Let's take a break. It's time to eat."

As soon as he heard that it was time to rest, Hu Dagui immediately smiled.

"Hey, Changhua, I'm hungry. This work is really tiring."

"Eat more if you are hungry for a while. Why are young people tired?!"

"It's mainly due to backache!"

Hu Dagui argued.

"Haven't you heard that young people still have back pain before their waists grow?"

Lu Changhua knew that this statement was unscientific and unreasonable, but now all the elderly people say so.

In his previous life, Lu Changhua was nagged like this by Lao Lu and Mother Lu.

Hu Dagui tied red cloth strips on the branches of the shrubs as a mark.

Only then did the two of them walk back to the duty room with their iron guns in their hands.

The four brick walls of the warehouse are already half finished.

The master carpenter also set up a battle in the yard, pushing the wooden square with a plane.

The two of them mixed the fish food. Hu Dagui took the fish food to feed. Lu Changhua got on his motorcycle and went home to see how the food was going.

As soon as he entered the courtyard, Xiong Bao ran over and made out with him.

"Don't you want to go to the reservoir? Why did you come to me?!"

Lu Changhua exchanged a few words with it, and Xiong Bao jumped around in front of him.

As soon as I opened the door, the room was filled with fragrance.

Today’s lunch is braised big carp, and Lao Lu is in charge of the cooking himself.

There is not only Mother Lu at home, but also Aunt Hu, Aunt Mao, and Aunt He. The four women are chattering and busy.

"Mom and dad, are you ready for dinner? There are a lot of people today, so we need to cook more."

"It'll be fine right now."

Lao Lu was so busy in the kitchen that he was sweating.

As soon as Lu Changhua stepped into the living room, he saw Han Ying hiding on the kang, holding garlic in her hand.

"Hey, Han Ying is here too? When did you come?"

"Do you still need your consent if I come?"

Han Ying rolled her eyes at him.

"Auntie, the garlic chop is ready."

Han Ying shouted in the room.

Mother Lu opened the door and walked in.

"Let's rest after it's done."

Taking the small basin from Han Ying's hand, Mother Lu turned and went to the kitchen.

Sister-in-law He came in now.

"Changhua, do you still have a basin at home?"

"Sister-in-law, don't ask me, ask my mother."

Mrs. He turned and went out, and Mrs. Mao came in again.

"Changhua, how many people are there in the reservoir? How many bowls and chopsticks are prepared?"

"Uh, I'll figure it out."

Lu Changhua counted carefully and said, "Eighteen."

"Oh, I'm going to get the dishes and chopsticks."

It is impossible for any family to have so many bowls and chopsticks these days. When something happens, they all borrow them from each other.

It's not a big event like the Lu family. If there are weddings or funerals, everyone has to go door to door to borrow money.You also have to put tape on the back of the bowls and plates and write your name, otherwise there are hundreds of bowls and plates and you won’t know which ones belong to whose family.

As for chopsticks, I can only remember a number. I borrowed five pairs and returned five pairs.Is it because your chopsticks can't handle that much anymore?

Aunt Mao went home and got some bowls and chopsticks. If she didn't have enough, she went to someone else's house to get them.

Han Ying got off the kang, put on her shoes and went to the kitchen.

"Don't go there, the kitchen is too small to accommodate so many people..."

"It's up to you, hum!"

Han Ying pouted and left.

Lu Changhua scratched his head, when did I offend her?Why are you angry with me?

How did he know that when he paid off the debt last time, someone kindly wanted to help him, but he didn't appreciate it, what a fool!
Until now, Han Ying still didn't bother to pay attention to him.

The kitchen was finally ready with food and dishes.

The ladies and sisters-in-law all carried iron basins, either filled with vegetables or steamed buns.

The bowls and chopsticks were packed in a woven bag, and a rope was tied at the end of the woven bag. Lu Changhua directly carried the bag on his back.

Get on the motorcycle and go.

"and many more."

Han Ying also climbed into the back seat with a basin of steamed buns.

Seeing this, Xiong Bao was not willing to be outdone. He barked twice and jumped up regardless of whether the owner agreed or not.

Lu Changhua had no choice but to move the woven bag behind him to the side so that Han Ying could sit firmly. "Mom and Dad, I'm going first."

He stepped on the accelerator and rushed towards the reservoir.

The bulldozer has stalled.

Two masters were washing their hands outside the duty room.

"Hurry up and use up the ashes, and let's rest."

The master bricklayer greeted him, and his workers all shouted and sped up their work.

This kind of work really consumes physical energy, and no one can stand doing it all the time.

The sound of Lu Changhua's motorcycle reached the duty room, and the construction site came to an end.

The master bricklayer threw the last shovel of ash on the red brick, pressed the brick in his hand on it, and tapped it on all sides with the shovel to straighten it.

"rest."

"Rest."

Everyone put down what they were doing and huffed and puffed around the pool outside the duty room to wash their hands.

The carpenter also put down his tools, put his pencil behind his ear, and waited to wash his hands and eat.

Han Ying got off the back seat of the motorcycle, and walked into the duty room with a basin of steamed buns in her arms.

Hu Dagui had already been sitting on the kang waiting.

Seeing Han Ying come in, she grinned.

"Han Ying, are you here to deliver food?"

"What? You don't want to eat the food I gave you?"

"Eat, eat."

Just as Hu Dagui was about to reach for the steamed buns, Han Ying slapped his hand.

"Wait a minute, the food hasn't arrived yet, are you starving to death?!"

"hungry."

Hu Dagui didn't dare to argue with this aunt and immediately fainted.

Xiong Bao rushed in, followed by Lu Changhua carrying a woven bag.

"Dagui, help me quickly."

Tableware is heavy and fragile, making it inconvenient for one person.

Hu Dagui hurried over to help unload the woven bag.

Lu Changhua opened the bag and took out the bowls and chopsticks.

"Give them smoke."

Lu Changhua asked Hu Dagui to disperse the smoke.

The kid grabbed a pack of cigarettes that Lu Changhua took out and ran out.

Hu Dagui's voice sounded outside the house.

"Come on, come on, let's smoke!"

Soon the pack of cigarettes was gone.

After washing their hands, these people moved a few bricks and sat outside.

Holding a cigarette in his mouth, puffing away smoke while waiting for the meal.

Although the weather in October has become colder, the sun at noon is still very warm.

It's just that the wind is a bit stiffer.

Many people leaned against the wall and sat on the red bricks, enjoying a rare and comfortable time.

Ten minutes later, the food delivery team finally arrived.

Everyone rushed forward, and the eighteen people were divided into three piles. Each pile of people held steamed buns and ate around a pot of big carp until their mouths were full of oil.

The employees are willing to work for the Lu family, and this meal is one of the important reasons.

Who told his family to raise fish? !

Who can eat big carps these days?

The Lu family can do it!

Many people who came to Lu's house to help came because of his big carp.

Hu Dagui learned the lesson from the previous times and chewed slowly, fearing that he would be embarrassed by hiccups.

These food delivery people sat alone in a group and ate directly at the reservoir so that they could clean up the mess.

Xiong Bao was taken care of by Han Ying, ate some fish and meat, and followed Han Ying around.

People eat very quickly these days, and finish eating in less than half an hour.

Lu Changhua helped clear away the dishes, chopsticks and basins, and Mother Lu took the women's army and left with their things.

He took his father to visit the half-built warehouse, and then took him to see the deep ditch in the north of the dam.

Lao Lu was very satisfied.

But he still said worriedly: "Where's the water? What should I do?"

"Dad, don't worry, it's fixed and the water will come."

"Really?"

"real."

Han Ying did not follow back, but followed to watch the fun.

Although she was not able to participate in Lu Changhua's affairs, she learned about Lu Changhua's plan from her father, and she admired him even more.

How can such a motivated and handsome guy not make people attracted to him? !

But on this matter, there were completely opposite opinions in the family.

Mother Han supports her daughter's choice, as long as the girl likes it, she doesn't choose.

Han Jianhua had his own ideas.

In his heart, the idea of ​​officialdom is still a bit serious.

He always believed that his girls were outstanding and beautiful and should marry someone with status, that is, an official family.

In a working-class family like the Lu family, wouldn’t the girls get married? !
The canteen was disbanded, and he was going to arrange for the girl to go to the health center. It would be good to be a nurse. She would be out of the wind and rain, and she could also take care of the family. How great would that be? !

Han Ying was opposed to such an arrangement.

She didn't like the medicinal smell in the health clinic.

Besides, everyone knew that her father had arranged for her to enter the clinic, which made her very uncomfortable.

Lu Changhua was checking the construction progress at the bottom of the ditch with his father when three cars drove up from a distance.

A low roar broke the tranquility of the reservoir.

With a creak, the car stopped.

A head popped out of the cab.

"Is this Lu Changhua's reservoir?"

"Yes."

Hu Dagui ran over.

"We are delivering bean cakes, where can we unload them?"

"Changhua, the bean cake delivery guy is here! Where to unload it?!"

"I'm coming."

Lu Changhua ran over quickly.
