After she became the brother of the male protagonist in the imperial examination, she became the spo

It was a sunny day when the beams of the three rooms of the Lin family were raised. It could also be said that it was a day when everyone was sweating profusely.

The Lin brothers chopped some bamboos and came back to light them in the yard with a crackling sound, which was considered as setting off firecrackers. Even so, it was still very lively.

All the little kids in the whole village were playing near the Lin family. Wumaoer, as the leader of the little kids, kept everything in order.

After putting up the beams and burning the bamboo, the house has taken general shape, but everyone's work is not over yet, because the next step is to put up the roof.

The Lin family did not buy tiles this time, but chose to use straw roofs like most of the adults in the village.

Although it is a simple straw roof, it is actually extremely complicated to build, so the three rooms cannot be built in a day.

But at this time, there is no need for manpower as before, so basically, the people who come to help from the village can go home after having the banquet today.

The rest will just involve the Lin brothers and a few cousins ​​from my great-grandfather's family.

This time the Lin family only added three rooms, which according to the rules could not be considered new houses, so the banquet was a little simpler.

The table was borrowed from the village, the plates and jars for the dishes were also borrowed, and everyone brought their own bowls and chopsticks.

The daughters-in-law in the village who had a good relationship with the Lin family came early to help, but they were a little surprised to see the Lin family's chef today.

How should I put it? Unexpected but reasonable.

After all, everyone in the village knew that the second son of the Lin family and his wife had sold fish balls at the market before, and it wasn’t that no one had thought of this, it’s just that the technology was not up to par.

Therefore, it is understandable that Cao Lian is the chef this time. The young wives have heard from their husbands who work for the Lin family that Cao’s cooking skills are really good, so everyone is willing to come and observe this time.

However, when these vegetable-washing helpers arrived, Cao Lian had almost finished preparing all the main dishes, and the remaining ones were some ordinary dishes that were seen as insignificant.

The Lin family’s banquet consisted of two meat dishes and eight vegetable dishes on each table, plus some refreshing and appetizing pickled vegetables.

Although these may not seem like much, or even a little, the containers for these dishes are not the tiny plates of later times, but rather coarse pottery basins that are larger than an adult's head.

The staple food is a sticky black paste. All the staple foods in the village are like this, but the paste of the Lin family is thicker and it is easy to fill up after eating.

The lunch directly increased the popularity of the Lin family in the village.

Aren't you grateful for what you have done? There were so many people in the village working together to build the three houses, so it wasn't that tiring every day, and the food was so good.

Even though they were working for free and without pay, the Lin family had never been absent when other families in the village were building houses, so even if there were some families who were unhappy with the Lin family, some people came this time.

It's just that he is lazy and sloppy at work.

All of this was seen by Lin Daniu and Lin Erniu. They knew which people were working sincerely for them, and they knew that these favors had to be repaid.

Because the three houses of the Lin family were built in the summer, they could be occupied after being vacant for a few days. However, it was Fang Erlangzi who would be busy after the houses were completed.

After all, carpentry is mostly about delicate work. The doors and windows have been completed these days, but other objects in the house are still made of wooden strips.

The old carpenter in the village never came again after the beams were put up in the house. After all, carpentry is a skill that makes money, unlike the people who build houses. Lin Daniu still paid the wages, but the old carpenter charged less.

As for Fang Erlangzi, the Lin family had already decided to pay him for his work. Even brothers have to settle accounts clearly, not to mention that he is a son-in-law.

Seeing that the new house was built, Daya brought back all kinds of leather materials from home. She wanted to hurry up and make the leather materials into small leather boots and other items.

During this period of time, Guangdan has been busy here and there, and things are scattered everywhere.

The good news is that the hens at home have started laying eggs, now more than a dozen eggs a day. At this point, I feel that my investment in the eggs alone is worthwhile.

A dozen eggs earned him more than twenty cents a day. Although he bought some moldy old grains in the village to feed the poultry, he could still make money if he could maintain this number of eggs.

The task of collecting eggs was directly contracted to Erya. Every morning, noon and evening, Erya followed the chickens, fearing that a single egg would be missed.

He even had several arguments with the little girls in the village just to pick up eggs.

In fact, it is very easy to distinguish, because in the entire Linjia Village, the Lin family raises the most chickens, and these chickens are raised in a fixed place every day, so Erya also has a fixed area to pick up eggs.

But there are always a few greedy people in the village who let their children stare at the Lin family's chickens, wanting them to pick up a few eggs.

This also made Erya more and more worried, and she picked up eggs more carefully, and even waited for Goumao'er to get home from school and directly drove people to keep an eye on the chickens.

Ever since the chickens started laying eggs, the Lin family has had more dishes every now and then, for example, the children can often eat steamed eggs.

Fried eggs and poached eggs can occasionally be added as a snack for the adults in the family. These improvements have reduced the sallow look on the faces of the Lin family members.

Although it cannot make people fat, the overall complexion is much better than before, and the most obvious thing is the little baby and Mr. and Mrs. Lin in the family.

This also made the villagers always have various speculations about the Lin family, but the Lin family has always been talkative and low-key. Even the younger ones like Goumao knew not to talk about family matters casually.

When Fang Erlangzi was doing carpentry work at home, the Lin brothers were helping him beside him. Guangdan observed for a long time and felt that this eldest brother-in-law worked a little slowly, but slow work produces fine work, and the products he made are still very good.

But these days, carpenters are paid according to the time they work for someone else's home. People like Fang Erlangzi, who are busier than others, are not very popular with their hosts.

These are not problems for Guangdan. As long as he has real skills, he will be able to make them shine in his own hands sooner or later.

This brother-in-law was destined to make money with me, but he had too many things to do at the moment and didn't know where to start.

The final plan for the second half of the year started with buying a cow. The old man thought that while Erlangzi was still at home, he would bring the cow back so that he could ride on a ox cart.

But buying a cow is not a trivial matter. In a farming family, if a person can buy a cow in his lifetime, his life will not be in vain. It is so exaggerated.
