Chapter 168
Chen Liu waved his big hand, and Jiang Huzi lit the second firecracker.After the sound of firecrackers, Chen Liu stood on the wall and sprinkled sugar in the open space.

The village boys and young boys rushed forward, and the little girls who heard the news also joined the candy picking team.

Chen Liu shouted blessings while sprinkling sugar. The children in the village had seen it before, so they responded enthusiastically.

This way is also another auspicious expression.

Ding Dian seized the opportunity to jump up, received a few in mid-air, and turned back to Sister Xiaofu.

Unexpectedly, a thin boy like him would have such a neat back, and he was immediately surrounded by teenagers.

"Boss taught it." Ding Dian smiled proudly, stuffing a candy into his mouth.

The candy is actually coated with hawthorn, and then wrapped in a small square of oiled paper after cooling. It is light and delicate, sweet and sour, and clean and decent.

Ding Shitou later found out that the second son of the village chief sold candied haws in the city during the slack season, so he had stored hawthorns at home.

Ding Shitou didn't ask the price of the hawthorn, let alone give money, but later he often went to the village head's house to buy candied haws, not only for eating at home, but also as a reward for the schoolchildren's good performance.

The schoolchildren ate candied haws, and when they got home, they would naturally boast about it. The adults in the family did not expect that the village school would buy candy to reward the children, and they had a higher degree of affection for Ding Shitou.

And those women who were unhappy with Ding Shitou didn't dare to say anything. If their children couldn't go to school, they would have Wang Zhang as a model.

After the beam-raising ceremony, Chen Liu supervised the work, nailing plywood and tiling.

Jiang Huzi led the teenagers to line up and quickly pass the tiles to the craftsmen on the roof.Even though there was thunder from time to time in the distant sky at this time, everyone did not panic.

As long as the bricks are covered before the heavy rain, it will be fine.

Afterwards, installing doors and windows, painting walls, building stoves, kangs, and paving floors were all carried out inside the house, and the rain could not beat them.

Chen Liu watched the progress for a while, and after explaining a few words, he got out of the room and drove a donkey cart away, heading to the quarry as planned.

The quarry places an order first, and if bricks are not available today, they will be available within three days.

Ding Shitou thanked everyone in the village head's family. The others were fine, but Xia Qiuling said with a smile, "You're welcome. I'll just come and eat more when you set up the banquet."

"That's natural, but I'm afraid my sister-in-law will come to help that day." Ding Shitou hurriedly mentioned this.

Setting up the flowing water table is not just talking, people are busy with various things such as tables, chairs, bowls and chopsticks, grocery shopping, and organizing the table.

And when the guests come, do you want to make tea?Then she will ask the village chief again.

Xia Qiuling giggled when she heard this, pulled her husband's arm and said, "I just said that Ding Shi is a very cost-effective person, right? He might have already made up his mind to ask me for help, but I happened to bump into it by myself. .”

Liu Xuefu laughed out loud when he heard this, looked at Xia Qiuling affectionately, and said, "If someone calls you sister-in-law, you can help me."

"Brother Liu is very right." Ding Shitou hurriedly bowed to thank him.

The young couple laughed and left.

"Have you decided which day to set up the banquet?" The village chief came over and asked with a smile.

"On the day of moving, if it doesn't rain, you can move." Ding Shitou said quickly.

"Okay, you don't have to worry about this, I'll arrange someone to come over then." The village chief nodded and comforted Ding Shitou.

"It's so good." Ding Shitou was naturally eager.

Soon the tiles of the main house were neatly covered, and four people were left to deal with the work behind.
