Chapter 69: Moving into a New House
"Sui Sui, come quickly and look at the clothes grandma prepared for you." Early in the morning, Sui He was dragged out of bed by his grandma. Grandma brought a lot of new clothes to Sui He's room and gestured to her one by one.
"Look at this one, the color is so pretty." Grandma took out a light yellow jacket with a light green pleated skirt underneath.
"Grandma, this..." Sui He looked at the clothes that made her look very girly with a frown on his face.
"Today is the day for the new house to be decorated with new clothes. Hurry up and try them out. I made them for you these days." Grandma gestured to Sui He while holding the light yellow coat.
"Grandma, this is too girlish. It's not very convenient to wear it while working." Sui He looked at his grandmother in embarrassment. He really didn't want to wear this kind of clothes. It would be inconvenient to work, but he couldn't take too big steps when walking. "Besides, I'm used to wearing men's clothes. This..."
"What are you talking about? How can a girl wear men's clothes every day?" Grandma interrupted Sui He and stuffed the dress in her arms without saying anything: "Don't talk so much nonsense, change quickly, we have to go to the new house soon."
"Hey, grandma." Sui He watched his grandma go out, leaving Sui He staring at the pile of clothes in front of him.
Sui He was rummaging through a pile of clothes. She really didn't want to wear that kind of clothes. Although they looked good, she still liked to wear pants, which were more convenient for running.
"What is this?" Sui He pulled out a blue-green piece of clothing, his eyes lit up.
"Grandma, I'm done." Sui He stood at the door after changing his clothes. His grandmother, who was waiting for him in the yard, turned around and looked over, and immediately stopped smiling.
"Oh, Suihe looks so smart. This suit must be new, right? The boy is getting more and more handsome," Aunt Li praised enthusiastically. Today, when the beams were being raised, Aunt Li didn't have to go to the homestead to help, so she came to wait for grandma: "Aunt Chen, Suihe will be fourteen after the Chinese New Year, right? Is there anyone who wants to meet him?"
Seeing that grandma's expression was getting worse, Sui He stepped forward with a flattering look on his face: "Grandma, your craftsmanship is really good. This new short shirt is just right for me."
"What are you talking about? He's still young. There's no rush." Grandma rolled her eyes at Sui He. Today was a big day, and she didn't want to argue with him.
"Brother Chen, Brother Chen." Zhao Dazhuang and his friends ran to Sui He and said, "We are moving to a new house today, let's go there quickly."
"Okay, grandma, I'll go over first."
Suihe was surrounded by children and walked to the new house.
"Grandpa, is there anything I can help you with?" Sui He walked up to his grandfather who was also wearing new clothes.
“Sui Sui, no need, just go and play, your uncles are here, they are enough, you are not needed.” Grandpa looked back at Sui He, then at the clothes he was wearing: “Why aren’t you wearing the clothes your grandma made for you?”
"That one is inconvenient to wear, and this one is the same, both are new."
"Okay, as long as you are happy"
After saying hello to my grandfather, I looked at my new house. It took more than two months, and the main part of the house was almost finished. In one corner of the yard were furniture covered with cloth. The master who made the furniture was also there, along with several of his apprentices, who would help carry the furniture into the new house.
The tiles are neatly arranged, waiting to be covered with tiles after the beams are put up.
In the past few months, the Chen family's reputation in the village has been getting better and better. All the villagers in Qingshan Village who are at home will come to help.
As the firecrackers sounded, the carpenter, wearing a red robe, stood on the beam and sang the words of raising the beam, directing everyone to put the main beam in a specific position. After the beam was put in place, he shouted again, and the people on the roof began to work together to stack the tiles neatly.
Grandpa took some dried fruit snacks and maltose and distributed them to the people around him. He also filled a tray with Suihe and distributed it to the children around him.
The villagers of Qingshan Village put maltose in their pockets and ate dried fruits while discussing the Chen family's
"This Chen family's house is really impressive, and the yard is really big."
"Yeah, I heard that this house cost a lot of money."
"Yes, this blue brick and tile house is the first of its kind in our village."
Everyone was discussing, and for a moment the area was filled with people watching the excitement. It was very lively, and the children eating candy rushed to pick up the unlit firecrackers.
From time to time, there were sounds of firecrackers around.
"Okay, you can move the furniture in." After several ladies cleaned the room with brooms, the old carpenter directed his apprentices to move the furniture into the room.
There wasn't a lot of furniture, so the villagers who were watching helped move it, and soon everything was moved in.
Grandma and a few aunts moved the bedding that had been prepared long ago onto the bed.
"This cotton is so thick, it will keep you warm in winter." Aunt Li touched the cotton mattress in Suihe's room and couldn't let it go.
"Yes, the pattern of this bed sheet is also nice. It is made of cotton, right?" Several aunts chattered.
"And this bed is so beautiful, with all these carvings, wow, it must have cost several taels of silver to make it."
"Look, the floor of this room is also paved with blue bricks. It's so smooth."
Several aunts discussed while making the bed. Soon, a bed was made. The weather began to cool, but the autumn mosquitoes were also very fierce, so a mosquito net was covered on the bunk bed.
The yard was also cleaned up by several aunts. Sui He looked at the clean yard. There were several stone benches and stone tables in the corner of the yard. Not only that, they also built a clamp with bamboo, which was just right for planting some climbing plants, so that people would not be exposed to the sun when sitting in the yard in summer.
"Auntie Chen, you have guests at home."
Sui He heard the voice and turned around, only to see the shopkeeper Li from Tongren Building walking in with a smile: "Brother Chen, I hope I am not disturbing you."
"No, no, it's great that you can come. Why bother you?" Grandpa walked forward and welcomed Shopkeeper Li in.
"Manager Li, why are you here?" Sui He walked up to Manager Li and led him into the inner room.
"You're moving into a new house today, so we're here to celebrate. I'm here just in time to give you this month's share." Shopkeeper Li took out an account book and a purse from his pocket.
"Thanks to you, our profits have increased several times this month. I specially sent the money to you and also gave you a housewarming dinner. I hope you won't chase me away, little brother."
Sui He took the purse and said: "Manager Li, you are such a grown-up, but you are still teasing a child like me. How could I chase you away? I am so happy that I can't wait to see you."
“Hahahaha” Shopkeeper Li laughed out loud. Sometimes he really felt that Sui He was not a teenager, so he wanted to tease him.
"Oh oh oh, the feast is about to begin!" The cheering voices of the children outside the door came in, and several people came into the yard carrying several large steamers. At this time, the yard was already filled with chairs and benches.
Exquisite dishes were placed on the table, including chicken, duck, fish and meat. Each portion was full and large. A group of children were running around the table, their eyes fixed on the food.
"Shopkeeper Li, the meal is about to begin. Please come in." Sui He stood up and invited Shopkeeper Li to take his seat.
"Okay, today I'll let you try the improved dishes of my Tongren Restaurant. I guarantee you won't be disappointed."
