Chapter 392
Yeran took a mouthful of pancakes and stuffed her throat, and it was Yin Tian who poured a cup of tea and handed it to her before swallowing the pancakes.

The two have been together for a long time, and their movements are very natural, and there is an indescribable tacit understanding in it.

In Ye Ran's view, it was still too early for the house to be completed.

The two children are still so young and have a playful temperament, always suffocating in the room and getting bored.

Sometimes, they like to play in the yard, and sometimes the aunt washes clothes and splashes water in the yard, and Yue'er and Xing'er step on the mud and fall down.

Therefore, Yeran wanted to lay another layer of blue bricks in the front and back yards of the new house, so that it would be easy to dry things in sunny days and not muddy in rainy days.

Also, she wanted to divert the water from the ditch in the cave, and hire someone to dig the land again. She had already considered building a medicine farm with ten acres of land, and the wall had to be built.

Although it was still early for completion, Zhou Zhijie led people to work for a month, and the new house was completed earlier than she expected.

Ye Ran took a sip of tea, and hurriedly said: "There is no rush to move, please take it easy, I will help you settle the wages for the past month."

Yin Tian sold the Wushou Wu that Yeran dug in the mountain last time for 30 taels of silver in the herbal hall.

The people who helped her family build the new house, together with Carpenter Tan and the others, were less than [-] people. It would cost about twelve or thirty taels of silver to pay for the helpers during this period.

Yeran's family didn't have so many coppers to send to the helpers, so they went to the house of Lu Shanlang and Wu Butcher, and finally got together a large bag of coppers, and paid the helpers before dark.

It's only been a month since they came to Yeran's house to help build the house, and all the men of the Zhou family have earned six or seven hundred Wen, and they were so happy from ear to ear holding the money bags.

"Thanks to everyone's help, the new house was built so quickly."

After dyeing his hair at night, he asked Zhou Zhijie and the others: "The house has been built. I will pave the front and back yards with green bricks, draw out the ditches in the cave, and build walls. Anyone who is free would like to come to my house to help. It’s still calculated according to the wages of fifteen Wen a day.”

what?
The front yard and the back yard have to be paved with blue bricks, that is, the yard of his house is also made of mud.

This is too rich!
Lead out the ditch in the cave, this is for watering the ground.

As soon as I heard that Yeran needed to build a fence, it was ten acres of land, how many green bricks would it consume?

Yeran's family gave fifteen Wen a day's wages, who would not want to help?

"Ranniang, the land was burned once, but the roots below were not burned. It will take a lot of effort to turn it over in the spring of the next year. We need to hire someone to turn it again."

Although they were willing to help, Zhou Zhijie was a real person and reminded Yeran: "How many bricks will be used to build the fence? It will cost too much money!"

It is indeed a bit of a waste of money to build walls around ten acres of land.

Rather than torture it later, it is better to build it once.

"Didn't I take over the business of boiling ointment? I've already saved up the money to build the wall, and I want to get it right once."

Ran has made up his mind, so he had to find a reason to say: "Brother Zhijie, I will try to grow precious medicinal herbs in this medicine field in the future. This land is facing the back mountain, and building a wall can prevent wild boars from spoiling the medicinal herbs."

The wild boar often jumps out to dig the vegetable field, and it spoils the field badly.

If Ran Niang doesn't build up the wall, it will be a big loss in the future!

"Well, we'll take over the job."

Zhou Zhijie agreed that he would not be able to come for a few days when the rice was being harvested, and he could come to Yeran's house to help at other times.

After receiving such a large amount of wages, there was still work to be done, and the Zhou family thanked them and left.
