Chapter 48: Decision to Build a New House
Jiang Ziluo didn't want to build a fancy house for the time being, and she knew that the remaining money was not enough to build a house with green bricks and tiles.
Since the decision has been made to build a house, this house cannot be lived in, because it is the last house. Jiang Ziluo went out of the yard and looked around.
Now that the weather is getting hot, it's okay to stay outside at night. But you still have to find a place where you won't get in the way.
At this time, the Grandma Wu I just met came over with something in her hand.
Jiang Ziluo thought that he had just arrived in the village and did not want to make enemies, so he stopped looking for a place and stood at the entrance of the yard, waiting for people to come over and say hello.
"Girl, why are you standing outside? Where is your master?"
"Hello, Grandma Wu. My mother is in the yard."
"Sweet little mouth, what's your name?"
"Grandma Wu, my name is Jiang Ziluo, my father's name is Jiang Runzhi, and my mother's name is..."
"Aunt Wu, why are you here?" When Zhao saw Aunt Wu coming over with a broom and rag, she hurried out.
"I have nothing to do at home, so I thought I'd come over to help so that we can clean up early and you can rest early."
"The roof of this house is exposed, and there are not enough rooms. We just discussed and decided to rebuild it. There is nothing much to clean up.
I still want to thank Aunt Wu. We just arrived today and you came to help us."
"It's okay. I'm fine at home. This house is indeed quite old. No one lives in it and no one cares about it.
It’s okay to build it now. Every family can save some adobe bricks. You’ve just arrived, but the village chief is here, so he won’t refuse to lend it to you.”
"Grandma Wu, we don't need to borrow, we can buy it. Dad is the only one working in the family. If we borrow, it will take him a long time to pay it back."
"Haha, the little girl is quite filial. You don't want your father to work hard?"
"My father has to support our whole family. He can't be too tired." Jiang Ziluo said and walked to the side.
"If you rebuild the house, where will you and your family live?"
"Now that the weather is warmer, we can make do with it outside here."
"It's okay for this man to get along with others outside, but you can't get along with a few girls."
When Zhao heard this, she realized that she had been thinking too simply, but there was no other way now!
When Aunt Wu saw Zhao frowning, she knew that she had just thought of this.
"It's okay. I live alone in my house, and there are three or four empty rooms. You can go over and squeeze in with me first."
As the two were talking, Jiang Runzhi and Village Chief Li came back with four strong men.
"Brother Jiang, do you really want to rebuild it? Once you tear it down, you won't regret it." Village Chief Li confirmed again.
"Well, village chief, push it! These three rooms are really not enough to live in. But the people who work here need things, so the village chief needs to help."
"Don't worry, I'm the village chief and I'm supposed to help."
"Village head, we were just talking about rebuilding the house. Where will they live? How will the workers eat during the construction period?"
Before the village chief could speak, one of the people who came with him said, "Let's go back to our own homes to eat. They just arrived in our village and haven't prepared anything. We can just eat a bite at home."
Jiang Ziluo was originally going to look for a suitable place to set up a shed, but when he saw Jiang Runzhi coming back, he stopped looking.
After hearing what Grandma Wu said, she realized that she had been a little hasty in saying that she wanted to rebuild the house. She really hadn't considered these things.
In her previous life, if she wanted to build a house, she could just find a construction team and just worry about the final acceptance and payment. However, she forgot that this was an ancient rural area.
If anyone has problems, go and help them. You have to provide meals. Before Jiang Ziluo could think of what to do, Doctor Hu stepped forward and said.
"Village chief, do you think this is okay? We just arrived in the village and don't know any rules. We don't have any adobe or thatch. The big guys in the village must have these. We'll buy them.
To be honest, it's not that we are rich, but mainly because we have many children in our family, and we don't know how long it will take to make adobe bricks and return them to everyone.
So, we spend some money to buy it, and everyone can earn more, and we pay more wages to those who come to work, so that everyone can cook for themselves, village chief, what do you think, is it okay? "
Village chief Li looked at the Jiang family. Indeed, there were many children. Moreover, Jiang Runzhi had just told him that there were many rooms to be built, so naturally more adobe bricks would be needed.
It was unrealistic to rely on them to beat the chicken and return it to the villagers. If they had to pay for it, Village Chief Li felt it was difficult to ask for it.
How can we ask for money for the adobe bricks made of mud that can be found everywhere in the land?
Jiang Runzhi had lived in the village for so long that he naturally knew the ways of the world, so he said, "Village Chief, we'll still pay for the things to build the house, but as for the food, I wonder what we can say about it?"
"Generally speaking, families in the village who help with housework only need two meals a day," said Aunt Wu.
"How is the wage calculated? How much can we earn in a day working here?" asked Zhao.
At this time, the village chief's wife also came over. She was busy at home and came over after she finished her work.
"We only make about 30 cents a day working in the town, and that's with a nice boss, who can still make us more than 20 cents." The village chief's wife is from Zhujiabao, her name is Zhu Lingmei, and everyone calls her Mrs. Zhu or Zhu's sister.
The village chief was not very old, probably just a few years older than Jiang Runzhi. The older people in the village were called Li Zhu or Zhu, and those of the same age but a few years older were called Zhu's sister.
Although Zhu Lingmei is not tall, she is really pretty, with a round face, big eyes, and her skin is not white, but not dark either.
She looks younger than other women of the same age, speaks softly and has a very friendly face.
The Jiang family didn't know who this was, so Village Chief Li introduced her, "This is my wife, Zhu."
Zhao smiled and nodded and said, "Sister-in-law is here." Zhu nodded and said to Aunt Wu with a smile.
"Aunt Wu San, there are a few empty rooms in your house. Let the women stay in two of them, and let the men set up a temporary place for them to live later."
