Chapter 228 Building a New House
To build a big brick house with green bricks, 20 taels of silver is enough. Now that I have more silver in hand, I can build the house even bigger.

Holding the silver, Ye Ran has enough confidence.

After getting off He San's boat, instead of rushing home, he took two catties of meat from the town and turned to Zhou Zecheng's house.

Zhou Zecheng and his family happened to be having lunch together, and Ye Ran entered the main room of his house carrying two catties of meat. She was so absorbed in thinking about building the house that she forgot that it was meal time.

"Why is Ranniang here? Have you eaten yet?"

Ye Ran was so embarrassed that she wanted to leave, Zhou Zecheng stood up and greeted her warmly, and said to his wife, "Hurry up and add more bowls and chopsticks."

"You child, come as soon as you come, why are you still carrying things?"

Yeran and Zhou Yunzhu were friends, and Zhou Yunzhu often said good things about Yeran in front of Aunt Zhou. Zhou Zecheng's daughter-in-law was afraid that there would not be enough food, so she went to the kitchen to fry another bowl of green onion eggs for Yeran.

Ye Ran didn't hold back, and generously picked up the food, and said to Zhou Zecheng: "Uncle Zhou, I'm here this time to repair the house."

Zhou Zecheng put the bowls and chopsticks on the table, and said, "It will be autumn soon, Miss Wu's house is leaking everywhere, and the tiles on the roof have not been mended for a long time, and they need to be renovated. I have free time these days, Uncle Zhou asked you Brother asked someone to repair the wall, and the tiles on the roof also had to be repaired."

She's not here looking for free labor, she's here to build a house!
Zhou Zecheng was so willing to help, Yeran was very heartwarming, and put aside the bowl in a hurry: "Uncle Zhou, what I said about building a house is to build a new house."

Now, not only Zhou Zecheng, but also Zhou Zhijie, his wife, and the old lady Zhou looked at Yeran.

Zhou Zecheng was startled: "Ran Niang, if you want to build a house, you need to have at least ten taels of silver on hand. You just bought the land, where can you get the money to build a new house?"

It's no wonder that Zhou Zecheng was surprised. After the order to close the mountain was issued, Ye Ran never went deep into the mountain to dig for medicine.

Li Zhaodi's family started collecting medicinal herbs, and Yeran also cut off that business, and there was no source of income. He and Zhou Hai were still thinking, how could Ranniang's family survive?
Now Ye Ran came suddenly and told her that a new house was going to be built.

"The time Uncle Zhou brought people into the mountains to look for me, I saved a few taels of silver by digging up medicinal materials."

Zhou Zecheng didn't believe that she had the money to build a house, so Yeran opened the basket, took out a small clay pot and handed it to Zhou Zhijie's wife, Feng Shi.

"Sister-in-law, this is the bluegrass ointment I made. I was bitten by a mosquito. Once I rub it on it, it quickly relieves the itching and reduces the swelling. My orchid ointment is sold well in this herbal store. It can be used when Xiao Naruko is bitten by a mosquito. "

Zhou Zecheng’s little grandson is called Zhou Yiming, Shitou and others call him Xiao Mingzi, this kid is also naughty, he always follows Shitou’s madness, doesn’t go home when it’s dark, gets bitten all over by mosquitoes, scratches his skin when itches up.

Hearing from Ye Ran that the effect was so good, Feng hurriedly opened the jar, and dipped some ointment on Naruko.

The place where the ointment was applied felt cool and comfortable, Xiao Mingzi stopped scratching, and urged Feng Shi: "Mother, it doesn't itch anymore, rub more, this side, and this side."

Feng was grateful to Yeran, holding the clay pot and said, "Mother Ran, what an embarrassment, your ointment is not cheap, right?"

"It's not worth a lot of money. My sister-in-law has run out, and I'll give you another can later."

When Yeran responded to Feng's readily, Zhou Zecheng also took the jar and sniffed it. Looking at the bluegrass embroidered on the bottle, and seeing that the ointment was light green and smelled refreshing, he knew that Yeran was sending the orchid ointment for sale. In this thatched cottage, I'm afraid I got a lot of money.

"This new house, how does Ran Niang plan to build it?"
