Chapter 67 The new Ye family
  Ye Hongchang asked others to choose first, and his own family to choose last.

But Xiema Village is a big place and the land is quite good. Even if you were chosen last, the location of the land would not be bad.

They chose a courtyard in the northwest corner, with Fuyu Mountain in the background.

I heard from the old village chief of Xiema Village that all the members of this family were killed by horse thieves in the past few years, and no one was left.

After hearing this, the Ye family felt very sorry. The yard was quite big, but it had been abandoned for several years and was a bit dilapidated.

Without the horse thieves, this family should have lived a good life, but now they are so miserable.

They moved all their luggage over and bowed three times to the sky in the yard as a way of notifying the original owner.

Mrs. Wang said, "Okay, let's clean up this house and live a prosperous life from now on. They will be happy to see it."

The house had been abandoned for a long time and needed to be cleaned everywhere. Each family had their own busy tasks. After a while, a few more people from the village came to help.

"The village chief is so considerate of everyone. My house has been tidied up, so I came to help the village chief's family."

"Yes, this house is really old. Village chief, you are really wronged..." Song Changyi felt a little guilty.

He was Song Changming's cousin. Ye Hongchang gave in to everyone in every possible way and paid extra attention to the Song family. He knew that this was because Song Changming had left, and Ye Hongchang felt guilty.

But this is not Ye Hongchang's fault. Now everything is left to the villagers, how can they not help?
  There was indeed a lot of work to be done, and Ye Hongchang did not refuse.

I was so busy until nightfall that I finally managed to make the house livable.

There are three main rooms, with the main room in the middle. The Wang family and Zhou family lived in the east room, and the two sisters Ye Xiangxiang and Ye Cuicui lived in the west room.

The wing room was also spacious. Ye Hongfu and Mr. Li occupied the east wing, while the north room was given to brothers Ye Liwen and Ye Lixuan.

The west wing is slightly narrower, and only Ye Hongchang and Mr. Liu live there for the time being.

The yard is a bit old, but it has a kitchen, toilet, woodshed, and everything that can be used with a little repair. There is also a vegetable patch next to the house.

The fire kang is also good. It will start to get cold soon. The fire kang can be used, which makes Ye Hongchang feel a lot more at ease.

It was getting late, so Mrs. Li and Mrs. Liu hurriedly went to make a fire to cook and fill the family's stomachs.

Mrs. Wang called her family together again and counted the money at home.

At the beginning of their escape, they had about 150 taels of property on them, but there was no place to spend money on the road. After settling here, they spent more than 20 taels on supplies.

Mrs. Wang counted the money and said, "This is all the belongings of our family. Most families in the village can live on their own. The families in need still need more help on weekdays. Although the money is still handy, there are still a lot of things to buy." , everyone should be aware of it.”

Ye Hongfu said, "Mom, don't worry, now we have finally settled down. From now on, as a family, we will work together and things will get better."

The Ye family are very hard-working. They could live well in Tongxin Village before, and it is the same here. Everyone is very confident.

There are still a lot of things that need to be purchased at home. When Wang opened his mouth, Ye Liwen took out a pen and paper and made a list in detail.

After a tiring day, we went up to the room to talk for a while, and then everyone went back to rest.

Mrs. Zhou lay on the bed and sighed, Mrs. Wang said, "Third daughter-in-law, we have not forgotten the third child. When the family is settled, your second brother will go out to find him. Don't be sad."

"Mom." Ms. Zhou shook her head, "I never doubted that everyone had forgotten him. I was just worried about him and didn't know if he was doing well outside."

Previously, she had been worried about mountain bandits and horse thieves all day long, but she didn't care about missing Gu Hongshun. Now that her life was calming down, Ms. Zhou felt a little uncomfortable.

Wang smiled and said, "Okay, it must be good. The third child seems to have no idea, but he has the courage. He knows that we are all waiting for him and will take care of himself."

Zhou is already five months pregnant, and her lower abdomen is obviously bulging. Now that the fetus is stable, there is no need to worry. The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law talked for a while before going to bed. In the west room, Ye Xiangxiang was still too excited to fall asleep.

"Sister, from now on I will use this cabinet and you use that one, okay?"

Ye Cuicui nodded and looked at her lovingly, "Okay, let's pack everything up now."

The two sisters arranged the house with great joy and prepared to put their luggage into categories.

But there was nothing else except a few clothes.

Ye Xiangxiang took out the stone she picked up from the village. She didn't know what it was used for, but it was good to keep it anyway. She threw it directly into the drawer.

Ye Cuicui said, "Grandma has saved some dowry for me. It's a pity that I can't take those two camphor wood boxes with me."

For a woman, dowry is her hope for the rest of her life, which is also Wang's wish. Ye Cuicui will be sad every time she thinks about it.

Ye Xiangxiang said with a smile, "The days are still long. We will continue to save in the future. Is it possible that I want to get married now?"

Ye Cuicui blushed and stretched out her hand to tickle her, "Little girl, what are you talking about?"

"Hahaha, I was wrong, please spare me." Ye Xiangxiang kept laughing, but he was afraid of disturbing others, so he rolled on the kang with itch.

After arguing for a while, the two fell asleep. Ye Xiangxiang felt very peaceful at the moment and was full of expectations for the new life ahead.

When we woke up the next day, everyone still couldn't believe it was true.

They have a home again.

After breakfast, Ms. Wang arranged work for everyone. Now the top priority is to open up more wasteland. Taking advantage of the cold weather, she hurriedly went to the Yamen to get the land deed.

The yamen said that you can open up wasteland as much as you like.

But as time goes by, who knows whether it will count or not. It is safest to have the title deed in hand.

They were allocated two acres of the previously opened wasteland, which was not enough.

Fortunately, there is land in front of and behind the house. It has been abandoned for several years, but it is not difficult to reclaim it. Ye Hongfu is now full of fighting spirit and wishes he could eat and live on the land.

Ye Hongfu is mainly responsible for reclaiming wasteland, Ye Hongchang is responsible for purchasing supplies and handling land deeds, and the others are responsible for other work outside the home.

Ye Hongchang took the order and prepared to go to the town. He couldn't help but sigh, "Everything is good here, but it's too far away from the town."

If you walk quickly, you can leave early in the morning and return home in the evening.

It's so far away from the town, let alone the county seat.

Ye Xiangxiang said, "Dad, can you get an ox cart in a few days? It will be convenient for a trip to the town, and the land will be used for farming."

Ye Hongchang nodded, "I have to buy it, let's talk about it in a few days."

Just as he was about to go out, Ye Lixuan ran and shouted, "Dad, dad, my eldest brother and I found a horse, just on the side of the mountain, a big black horse."

"Speak slowly, where is the horse?" Ye Hongchang became interested.

Ye Lixuan took a breath before saying, "It's over there. Brother is watching over there. Dad, let's go get it back."

 The third update today, please vote again, I wish you all a happy day!
