curling smoke

After careful planning, He Zhengping was busy recruiting workers and building houses. Although he had a good relationship, it was really not good to live in someone else's house all the time. Even if the Lin family didn't care, he would feel awkward.

Before starting to build the house, he specially brought something to visit Jiang Feng.His father and Jiang Feng had always had a good relationship. During the two years he was away, Jiang Feng had helped his father a lot. It was necessary for Jiang Feng to visit and thank him when he came back.Besides, Jiang Feng is also the Lizheng of their village, and he started construction projects as soon as he came back, so he should talk to Lizheng about it.

"Uncle Jiang, I haven't seen you for a long time, but your body is still so healthy." When he arrived at Jiang Feng's house, He Zhengping naturally put the things he brought on the table and greeted Jiang Feng warmly.

"Hey, just come, what else do you bring!" Jiang Feng said with a frown as he looked at the things He Zhengping sent.

"It's nothing, just a few jugs of wine brought back from the south. I'll bring it when I know you're good wine." He Zhengping said to Jiang Feng with a smile.

Hearing that it was his favorite wine, Jiang Feng didn't say anything more. Originally, juniors should honor their elders by ordering wine.

"Are you planning not to leave when you come back this time? Sigh, it's my hometown after all, it's not good to go to such a far away place and you don't know the place well." Jiang Feng thought that Dr. He could not bear to live alone all these years. , persuaded He Zhengping.

He Zhengping nodded and said, "Uncle Jiang is right. I plan to settle down this time when I come back, and I won't go out. You see, I'm planning to build a new house."

"Good to build a new house. I heard that you plan to build a green brick house. This is a big deal. It looks promising. Hehe, it's not bad." Jiang Feng looked at He Zhengping and said happily. very happy.

Then He Zhengping went to the homes of his two married brothers, and also visited many relatives and friends.After finishing all these, He Zhengping settled down and started working on the house.

Now that you have decided to build a new house, build it better and bigger, and it will be a wealth that will be passed down to future generations.He Zhengping already had an idea for the planning of the house.

For the green bricks used for building the house, He Zhengping specially found someone to buy good quality green bricks.As for the matter of recruiting workers, He Zhengping listened to Lin Dashan's suggestion.Lin Dashan had recommended some people to him before, and it was said that they were all good at work, so He Zhengping listened to what he said and invited these people.

Now is not the time for farming, but He Zhengping's wages are not low, and Dr. He has always been very prestigious and popular in the village, so many people are willing to come.

After starting to build the house, He Zhengping found that Lin Dashan's suggestion really did not disappoint him.These recruited people are honest and capable, and there is absolutely no behavior of fishing for laziness.In order to reward the villagers who helped out, He Zhengping invited Zhang Xiaoyun to be the chef when he learned from Gu Qiu, to help cook everyone's meals.

Originally, Gu Qiu and Lin Yu told him that it was not too troublesome, and that it would be good to let them help, but He Zhengping didn't want to be so troublesome, so they refused.He is busy with the house now, and Lin Yuer helps him take care of Xiaotian, which already makes him feel that he is bothering others.

But talking about Xiaotian, it made him feel very relieved.Since Wenzhen left, he has been a father and a father at the same time, and Xiaotian is a sensitive and clingy child, so he has been working hard.After coming back, Lin Yuer actually conquered Xiaotian, and now Lin Yuer helps him take care of the child most of the time.

It would be too much for Lin Yuer to do this and that.But Lin Yu'er also enjoyed it, which made He Zhengping's burden much lighter.

With the construction of the house going on day by day, the time has come to May in a blink of an eye.

"It's just May and the weather is so hot. It seems that this summer is very difficult." Gu Qiu put all the clothes that everyone changed last night into the wooden bucket, and planned to take them to the river to wash.Seeing that there are many more people in the family, there are more clothes to be washed.

"Aqiu, let me go with you." Lin Yu'er said when she saw the bucket full of clothes.

"No need, I can go alone, you still have to take care of Xiaotian." Gu Qiu shook his head.

"The child is asleep, and it may take a while to wake up, and Doctor He is here, so don't worry." Lin Yuer looked at the room and said.

The two went to the river together.This time is the climax of laundry in the village, there are at least a dozen people washing clothes by the river, and it is very lively.

The riverside where the clothes are washed has always been a gathering place for gossip and rumors in the village. It is rare for brothers and sisters of each family to get together, wash clothes with their hands, and chew their tongues. Whose brother is lazy and lazy, whose husband and wife are at odds... It can be said that this is the center of intelligence in the village.But here is also a good place to blend in with everyone. When Gu Qiu first got married, he always came here to wash clothes, and everyone chatted and became friends.

People who were already by the river had to say hello when they saw Gu Qiu and Lin Yuer coming.

Gu Qiu and Lin Yu'er greeted the brothers, and seeing Zhang Xiaoyun was there, they found a place beside him and squatted down to wash clothes.

"Yu'er, Aqiu, are you here to wash clothes today?" Zhang Xiaoyun greeted with a smile.

"Yes, there are a lot of people in the family recently, and there are a lot of clothes to be washed." Lin Yu'er said while helping Gu Qiu soak the clothes in the water.

"It's very lively here today, what are you talking about?" Gu Qiu looked at the groups of buddies and asked.

"Oh, it seems that Jiang Xiaochuan's family has quarreled with his head of the family again. It is said that they are about to fight, um... and the brother of Jiang Darong's third son is pregnant again..." Zhang Xiaoyun thought for a while and wanted to hear himself and the two of them. explain.

Gu Qiu thought he shouldn't ask, what else could there be besides these.

The three of them were chatting, laughing and washing their clothes, when suddenly a hand patted Gu Qiu's shoulder, causing Gu Qiu to jump up in fright, and when he turned around, he saw a big round face full of smiles.

"Hahaha, Gu Qiu, you see I was really careless, I scared you, don't be afraid, it's me." The big round face said with a smile and put down the wooden basin in his hand.

"Brother Wang, come and do the laundry." Gu Qiu forced a smile.

"Oh, why are you being so polite? Just call me Xiaoying. I saw you and Yu'er washing clothes here, so I came here to keep you company and talk. Hehe..." Wang Ying ignored Zhang Xiaoyun who was on the side, Talk to Gu Qiu and Lin Yu'er enthusiastically.

"Oh, look at my memory, I forgot to bring saponins again." Wang Ying patted herself on the head exaggeratedly, and looked at the saponins in Gu Qiu's basin.

"It's okay, I have it, you can use it." Gu Qiu handed himself over helplessly.

"Hey, thank you so much."

While washing clothes, Wang Ying chatted about some short stories about the family, Gu Qiu and Lin Yu'er could only listen on the sidelines, and they didn't want to talk, so they agreed occasionally with um, oh.

Halfway through washing the clothes, Wang Ying thought that the friendship was almost done, so she suddenly came up to them and said in a low voice, "Gu Qiu, is there enough manpower for the He family to build a house? It must be manpower to build such a big house. , my man is also very strong, and he will never be lazy, can you let him work too."

Bah, it's just your family, the most famous lazy man in the village, who goes to work in someone's house, works for half an hour, and is lazy for an hour, but eats more than anyone else.And you, you are the one who loves to take advantage of small things in the village, and there are not many times when you come to wash clothes with saponins.It is a fool to let your man do the work!

Although I thought so in my heart, I couldn't say it out of my mouth.

"Hehe, I don't know much about this matter. After all, this is the He family's business." Gu Qiu laughed.

"How can you not know, don't the father and son of the He family live in your house now? And Zhang Xiaoyun is cooking for the He family now, so my man can't go." Wang Ying frowned and said.

Lin Yu'er couldn't listen anymore, "He's just staying at our house, and finding someone to do things is his own business. What can our brother say? If you want your man to go to work, just be straightforward. It's useless to talk to He Zhengping, and it's useless to find us. Besides, Xiaoyun is invited because of Xiaoyun's good craftsmanship. Your man is so capable and capable, so there must be no problem. You can tell it yourself The He family will definitely invite you."

Lin Yuer's words blocked Wang Ying firmly.Seeing that Wang Ying couldn't figure out the way here, she hurriedly cleaned up and went back.

Seeing him go, Gu Qiu let out a long sigh of relief: "The roots of my ears are finally clean."

Zhang Xiaoyun smiled and boasted: "Yu'er, you were really amazing just now."

Lin Yuer smiled triumphantly and said: "You don't know him well enough. I have known him for many years. I grew up with him in the village since I was a child. He is just annoying. He is the best at pushing his nose on his face. No need Show him mercy."

Gu Qiu and Zhang Xiaoyun nodded in understanding.

After washing the clothes, the three went home together.On the way back, Zhang Xiaoyun mentioned the festival: "The Dragon Boat Festival is coming soon, this year is the first Dragon Boat Festival that Ah Qiu will spend in Jiangjia Village."

"Yes, this year's Dragon Boat Festival must be more lively." Lin Yu'er nodded.

"There will be a big fair in Liushu Village as usual before the festival. Shall we go for a stroll in two days." Zhang Xiaoyun wanted to buy something for the family.

There are a lot of things to buy for the holidays, Gu Qiu was very moved when he heard it: "To be honest, we haven't gone out for a long time, and there are quite a lot of things to buy at home for the holidays, why don't we go with Jin Yun."

The three discussed it and decided to go there in two days.

@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@

Back home, Gu Qiu told Lin Dashan and He Zhengping about meeting Wang Ying while washing clothes by the river.

"Brother, you did a good job. The couple of Wang Ying's family, only fools would hire them to work. I love taking advantage of it." Lin Dashan nodded.

"Don't worry, I will never hire him. Dashan, when it comes to recruiting, the people you introduced to me are really nothing to say, they are extremely capable, and they will never play tricks on stealing and rape, especially the Lu family brothers and Lin Qing, Lin Qing, etc. Brother Ping, I want to give them money." He Zhengping sighed.
