When Qin Hao heard the price, he knew it was the normal price, neither lowering nor raising it.

He smiled and said, "Okay, ma'am, I'll pay you a deposit of ten yuan first, and we'll make the decision. The beam will be installed in a few days, and you all have to go eat by then!"

What you say in public must be beautiful, who wouldn’t?You give me face and I will give you face.

"Easy to say, easy to say, this kid can be relied on to do things!" Wu Chunxiang took the ten yuan and was very satisfied with his attitude.

She likes to deal with sensible people. She doesn't need you to remind her, and everything will be done for you.

After Qin Hao finished explaining, he went back with his elder brother and discussed the specific situation of building a house on the way.

"Two days are enough to dig the foundation now, so many people can work together." Qin De didn't know what else to discuss.

Hearing this, Qin Hao replied: "Then you have to make an agreement with others. There will be work later. And we also need to find carpenters and bricklayers, don't look for people who are not allowed to succeed in their work. Let dad ask, can you do it now? Even if he goes out, he will know."

There are only a few people in the village, and there are not many who know how to be a carpenter or bricklayer. But if there is no suitable one, it is best to look outside, and don't look for unreliable ones.

These skilled workers also charge fees in the village. Except for the helpers who do not charge, labor costs are spent here.

Otherwise, it’s cheap to build a house now. The most important thing is that these helpers don’t have to pay for it.

Qin De nodded in agreement, "I understand, go back and ask."

The matter of building a house was finally explained clearly. Qin Hao dug the foundation for two days and stopped going. There were many helpers there, including him.

Besides, he was also busy with other things.

In addition to delivering eggs every day, he also has to go to the mountains to pull dead wood back and use it as firewood.

In winter, the house where they sleep needs to be burned, the chicken coop needs to be burned, and the house converted from a warehouse behind also needs to be burned, because the pigs need to eat cooked food, and cooking pig food requires a fire.

Calculating this, I really don’t know how much firewood will be burned in one winter.

There was no oxcart, so Qin Hao looked for wood in the mountains behind his home, and then went back again. After several attempts, he chopped half of the firewood out.

In the afternoon, Shi Chunsheng came over to deliver eggs. Seeing him working on wood alone, he said he wanted to help.

At least he had a bullock cart, so he could do everything faster. Two people could pull it for ten days, which would be enough to keep the people occupied throughout the winter.

"No, I'm going to fix it like this for now. When my elder brother finishes building the house, I'll ask him to help." Qin Hao wiped his sweat tiredly. He didn't even wear a shirt. It was too hot.

When Shi Chunsheng saw what he said, he didn't insist. It was still early before winter. Even if this time was not enough, they could continue to pull in winter.

Li Meiling counted eggs at home and then gave people some money.

About a thousand yuan a day, Shi Chunsheng has made dozens of yuan in these days. If he sticks to it, he can earn at least 300 yuan a month, which is not counting the basic 30 yuan.

"Haozi, from now on I will collect eggs in the morning and pull firewood for you in the afternoon, so you don't have to do that and just do your own thing." Shi Chunsheng felt that he still had to help.

Because Qin Hao couldn't see anyone every day before. You can imagine how busy he is. Now he is still chopping firewood at home. Doesn't this delay things?

"That's okay, I have to go out tomorrow, and you can do the rest as much as you can." Qin Hao did not refuse.

As for the family, besides Li Meiling, Wang Dahua often comes over.

It's not that Qin Hao can't believe Shi Chunsheng's character, but that there are too many people in the countryside who are willing to gossip, and others don't believe it.

Therefore, there must be two more people in the family so that Shi Chunsheng can work with peace of mind.

After seeing the person off, Li Meiling went to get some water for Qin Hao to wash up. She had been working for a whole day, and the weather was so hot that she didn't even take a break at noon.

"You work with your arms stretched out, and you don't pay attention. You're young, so you can't do that!" There was complaint in her tone.

Since becoming pregnant, Qin Hao has stopped letting her work. She is used to seeing people so tired, and she feels distressed.

"I understand. Aren't I afraid that you will get cold? Wife, you are three months pregnant now, and the day after tomorrow will be early August. Can I not be in a hurry?"

Qin Hao threw down the towel and washed it, and then said: "You will have a baby around February. It will be freezing and snowy at that time, and there is not enough firewood at home. Can I let you and your mother freeze?"

It's still very cold in the Northeast in February, especially in the morning and night. It can be a little warmer at noon when the sun is strong.

The ice and snow will melt away in mid-April, and farming will be better after May Day.

The winter in the Northeast is too long, otherwise how could we prepare so much firewood?
"Well, just take it easy and know what's going on." Li Meiling was very moved when she heard these caring words.

At this time, a voice sounded outside, "Second sister, are you at home?"

"It's Haidong's voice!" A flash of surprise flashed in Li Meiling's eyes, and she immediately went out to greet the people.

"Why are you here!" When she went out, she saw Li Haidong carrying a satchel on his back and a basket in his hand.

Li Haidong smiled and replied: "Second sister, Mom said that your uncle will be too busy to build a house, so he asked me to come and help. Anyway, I have finished my homework for the holiday, so I came over to take a look."

After saying that, he handed over the basket in his hand and said, "This is the roe deer meat that mom brought for you. Yesterday, dad went to help others pack the roe deer and divided two kilograms of meat between them."

When she heard that it was such a good thing, Li Meiling was so moved, "Did you bring them all for me?"

When I opened the leaves on the basket, I saw two kilograms of meat lying there. I could tell how many kilograms it was at a glance.

"We ate ready-made meat, otherwise we wouldn't be able to bring it to you." Li Haidong told the truth. In addition to raw meat, they also gave us cooked meat.

Qin Hao came out at this time and saw his brother-in-law waving, "Why are you rushing to help when you are not at home? Do you know how to build a house, a carpenter or a bricklayer." After saying this, he was still grateful to his mother-in-law.If you have someone to help you with something, no matter how much you do, someone else will be there.

Besides, you were still staring down at him before, so why did you change again?

Li Haidong didn't know what he was thinking, and said honestly: "Don't you have to help? I don't know those jobs, but I can push a triangular cart and help move sand and rocks."

I'm a young man of [-] or [-], what kind of work can't I do?Children in rural areas are also strong-skinned and can endure hardships.

Qin Hao smiled and waved his hand, "You don't need to do that work. Just keep an eye on your second sister at home. Just help me chop wood if there's nothing else."

There are too many people working at the eldest brother's side, but there is a shortage of one child to work?That is impossible.

Li Haidong agreed without thinking too much, "Okay, it will be the same wherever I work."

The three of them entered the house, and Li Meiling took out the delicious food Qin Hao bought, such as glutinous rice sticks and biscuits.

There are also drinks, sweet and sour milk, which is really delicious.

Li Haidong's eyes widened when he saw so much food spread on the kang.He is at the age when he is greedy and can't walk when he sees food.

"Second sister, your family has opened a supply and marketing cooperative, buy so much food!" She swallowed as she spoke, making the other two people laugh with her unpromising look.

"Eat it, your brother-in-law bought it for me, and I can't finish it." Li Meiling showed off that her man was nice to her.

Hearing this, Li Haidong's teeth almost turned sore, "Oh, that's okay, I know you two have a good relationship."

His hands were not slow when he spoke. He picked up the biscuits and ate them. The biscuits were delicious, but a little choked.

"Eat less, we will cook later. Just this morning your brother-in-law bought three kilograms of pork, and I will make dumplings for you." Li Meiling has already started thinking about dinner.

It's just after four o'clock, still early.

"It's filled with roe deer stuffing, and the meat is braised in braised pork!" Li Haidong sat by the kang and started ordering.

He has wanted to eat braised pork for a long time. His family only buys a pound of it at a time and makes dumplings to eat, so he can't eat large pieces of meat at all.

I’m almost starving for it!
"Okay, okay, I'll listen to you." Li Meiling agreed.

Qin Hao thinks the dumplings stuffed with roe deer are also good. Some people say they taste like mutton, while others think they have no taste at all, and some say they taste like chicken.

I made dumplings in the evening and cooked them. Qin Hao called them to the old couple. There were too many people working and eating there. Who can eat a plate of dumplings? You can't say that you won't give them to others, right?

As for the eldest brother and his wife, they eat the same thing.

When the old couple saw Li Haidong coming, they were also very happy, especially when they heard that their in-laws had asked someone to come to help.

They had the same idea as Qin Hao, there were too many people helping, so they might as well stay here chopping firewood.

"Haidong, please stay here a little longer. Your brother-in-law's family eats delicious food every day. Please help him eat more." Qin Ershuan laughed.

Hearing this, Li Haidong nodded in agreement, "Uncle, you are right, my brother-in-law's house is indeed much more delicious."

He doesn't have any good intentions. If he stays, he will work more.

It happened that the warehouse at the back could be accommodated, so he would feel more comfortable living there, without fear of disturbing the couple.

Li Haidong didn't know what influence he could have. Anyway, his mother told him before going out that he should stay for a few days and not affect the couple.

After dinner, Li Meiling arranged for him to sleep in the back room, where he had bedding and mosquito coils.

After all, there are pigs and chickens around, so it’s impossible not to light mosquito coils.

There was no one selling this thing in their town. Qin Hao brought it back to use, otherwise he wouldn't have known it was so good.

Qin Hao went out to modern times early the next morning.

It is easy to be seen if it is too late, and it is difficult to explain.

After saving some money in the past five days, he went to a breakfast restaurant to eat after delivering the eggs.

Qian Zhengxing hadn't seen him for a long time. He had changed his clothes and almost didn't recognize him.

"Okay, boy, dress upright today!" He asked with a smile: "Why do you think of coming to my place? How long have I not seen you?"

"Aren't you passing by? Come and have a look, and eat some steamed buns by the way." Qin Hao replied, and then went to serve the porridge.

You can drink porridge for two yuan, steamed buns are two yuan each, and there are also three yuan.

It's more expensive than what he bought before. Those sold on the roadside don't require shop rent, so they are cheaper.
Even the filling is not as big as others, and the meat filling is very filling.

Qin Hao was eating steamed buns and chatting with Qian Zhengxing. The two of them were talking about what they were doing recently.

After harvesting wild vegetables, they had no contact again.

"Qin Hao, you're here too." Yang Guoqing came in at the door and happened to see him.

"Why did I turn off my phone when I called you? It won't turn on."

I called Qin Hao once or twice in the past two days, but his phone was always turned off. I thought something had happened to him.
