Travel back to the 80s to farm

Shen Jing placed the banner and certificate on the wall of her office and stared at them in a daze.

"Sister Shen Jing, your letter!" Lin Xiaoli looked into the room at the office door.

Shen Jing came back to her senses: "Well, the door is not closed, come in!"

Lin Xiaoli put the letter on the table and said respectfully: "Sister Shen Jing, how much do you think it will cost to build a house for our family? I heard that building a building is too expensive. I thought that building a brick house would be enough for our family!"

Shen Jing smiled and said, "Xiao Li, the cost of building a house depends on the specific area and materials used. However, brick and tile houses are indeed cheaper than buildings. You can consult a local architect or construction team, and they can give you a more accurate quote."

Lin Xiaoli nodded and said gratefully, "Thank you, Sister Shen Jing, I understand. By the way, Sister Shen Jing, why haven't you gotten married yet? There are already many girls your age in the village!"

Shen Jing blushed slightly and said, "I've been too busy with work and haven't had time to think about this issue."

Lin Xiaoli said: "No matter how busy you are, you have to consider your lifelong affairs! Sister Shen Jing, you are so beautiful, there must be a lot of young men who like you!"

Shen Jing smiled and didn't respond. She had already discussed with Lin Yiping that they would get married next year when their careers took another step forward!

Lin Xiaoli said with a smile: "Sister Shen Jing, what kind of young men do you like? Tell me! Maybe I can give you some advice!"

Shen Jing was amused by her. "The person I like must be ambitious, kind, and honest. The most important thing is that we must understand and support each other."

Lin Xiaoli listened and nodded thoughtfully, "Oh, Sister Shen Jing, your requirements are quite high! But I believe you can find the right person!" After that, Lin Xiaoli turned around and left the office, "Sister Shen Jing, I'll go back first, there are still many things waiting for me to do at home!"

Shen Jing smiled and nodded, "Okay, Xiaoli, go ahead! Feel free to come to me if you have any questions."

After Lin Xiaoli left, Shen Jing looked at the banners and certificates on the wall again, feeling a sense of accomplishment. She knew that her efforts were not in vain, and there would be more challenges waiting for her in the future.

"Xiao Jing!" Lin Yiping hugged Shen Jing from behind and said gently.

Shen Jing said sweetly: "You are here!"

"You seem to be in a good mood today." Lin Yiping said with a smile.

Shen Jing turned around and looked at Lin Yiping with a happy smile on her face. "Yes, seeing these banners and certificates, I feel that all my efforts have been rewarded."

Lin Yiping gently stroked Shen Jing's hair. "You are really great, Xiao Jing. I am proud of you."

Shen Jing looked up at Lin Yiping, her eyes full of love, "Thank you for your continued support and encouragement."

Lin Yiping held Shen Jing's hand and said, "Let's work together, and the future will be better. By the way, I just heard Xiaoli talking about building a house. We should also think about our future."

Shen Jing nodded, "Well, I've thought about it. We can first choose a piece of land and then design our ideal home."

Lin Yiping hugged Shen Jing, "Okay, let's plan our future together. As long as you are by my side, I believe everything will be fine."

Lin Yiping suddenly remembered something and said, "Don't worry about the land. We can go to the village to apply for a homestead!"

Shen Jing said excitedly: "Really? That's great! We can build our home according to our own ideas."

Lin Yiping smiled and nodded, "Of course, this is our dream home, we must make it perfect."

Shen Jing leaned in Lin Yiping's arms, looking forward to her future life. "I imagine having a big yard where I can plant some flowers and plants, and a spacious and bright living room where we can watch TV and chat together."

Lin Yiping agreed: "There should also be a cozy kitchen where I can cook for you."

Shen Jing smiled sweetly, "Then I will be responsible for washing the dishes and cleaning!"

The two were immersed in the beautiful fantasy of the future, as if they had already seen the home in their minds. They decided to start preparations as soon as possible to make this dream come true as soon as possible.

That night, Lin Yiping finished writing the application. Early the next morning, Lin Yiping took the application to the village committee and found the village chief. After reading the application, the village chief smiled and nodded, indicating his approval. Lin Yiping happily thanked the village chief and took the approval document home to tell Shen Jing the good news.

Shen Jing was very excited when she heard this. They could finally start building their own home. So, the two began to prepare for the house building, looking for construction workers, buying building materials, etc. Although the process was hard, they were full of hope and motivation.

With everyone's joint efforts, the house gradually took shape. After get off work every day, Lin Yiping and Shen Jing would come to the construction site to check the progress, looking forward to moving into their new home as soon as possible.

"Xiao Jing, you don't have to come here to watch. I don't want you to work so hard. Just leave this matter to me!" Lin Yiping said as he saw Shen Jing coming to the construction site.

Shen Jing shook her head. "This is our home. I want to be a part of it. And watching it being built bit by bit gives me a sense of accomplishment."

Lin Yiping looked at Shen Jing with emotion, "Thank you, Xiaojing. With you by my side, I think everything is worth it."

Shen Jing asked Lin Yiping: "By the way, how is Juan'er's house?"

"The roof over there will be completed tomorrow, and after plastering the walls inside with lime, it will basically be finished." Lin Yiping answered seriously.

"Well, do we still need to build an east room? Where will Xiaoli and the others live?" Shen Jing continued to ask.

Lin Yiping patted Shen Jing on the back and said, "Don't worry about this. After the main house is built, we will start building the east house in another month!"

"Well, okay!" Shen Jing nodded.

In the days that followed, the construction of the house progressed smoothly. Lin Yiping and Shen Jing became increasingly busy, but their hearts were full of expectations.

Not long after, Lin Juaner's house was finally completed successfully.

"Wow, our new house is so big and beautiful!" Lin Xiaoli said excitedly to her sisters and brothers.

"Yes, we can play here together from now on." The younger brothers also smiled happily.

They moved into the new house and started a new life. In the yard, Lin Xiaoli and her sisters and brothers planted various vegetables and flowers.

"We want to make this courtyard more beautiful!" said Lin Xiaoli.

"Well, I will take good care of these plants." The younger brothers agreed seriously.

However, Lin Juan'er's father, Lin Angui, did not move into the new house. He watched all this silently, feeling full of guilt.

"Dad, why don't you move into the new house?" Lin Xiaomei asked puzzledly.

"Xiaomei, Dad feels sorry for your elder sister. She paid for the construction of this house, and I don't have the face to live in it." Lin Angui lowered his head and spoke in a low voice.

"Dad, don't say that. I'm sure my elder sister isn't really mad at you." Lin Xiaomei advised, "We are a family, so we should live together in the new house."

Lin Angui raised his head and looked at Lin Xiaomei, tears of emotion flashing in his eyes.

"Okay, Dad will listen to you." He nodded and walked into the new house.

From then on, Lin Angui and his children lived a happy life in the new house, and the courtyard was full of vitality because of the embellishment of vegetables and flowers.
