After her husband died, her parents came to force her to remarry

Everyone at the table nodded. Zhang Quan asked, "What kind of house are you going to build? How many rooms? When the time comes, we can do it ourselves. The more money we can save, the better."

"We are planning to build a green brick and tile house. If my second uncle knows how to build a house, I will trouble you to accompany my father and run around to buy materials."

Everyone was surprised.

Zeng Hua asked: "Repairing a blue brick and tile house?"

Jiang Xiaohe nodded.

"How much money did you make?" Zeng Hua asked, then realized that what he said was wrong, and quickly changed his words: "I don't want to ask, but I think it will cost a lot of money to build a blue brick and tile house."

"Don't worry about the money." Jiang Xiaohe said with a smile.

"Since we need to repair the house, my parents and I want to have it repaired all at once."

Wang Qiuxia smiled and nodded: "Xiao He is right."

Since the whole family said so, Zhang Quan and Zeng Hua were envious but also happy for them.

"Then, head of the family, you have to help Big Brother and Big Sister-in-law keep an eye on them."

Zhang Quan smiled and nodded, then asked them when they planned to start construction.

"Tomorrow I will ask the village chief whether the land next door has been approved. If it has been approved, we will start construction immediately."

"Is the worker hired yet?"

"Don't we have you? Why should I hire workers? I can just call a few more people from the village and we can start the construction."

Zhang Quan listened to him and said, "Okay, I'll go ask those people in the village if they are free tomorrow!"

Zhang Fu nodded.

Zeng Hua said: "Since you want to repair the house, we can't live here anymore. I will clean up the house tomorrow and you can all come and live here then."

Wang Qiuxia quickly said no, "We'll leave the firewood room and utility room at the back untouched. We'll just move in when the time comes."

"How can that be possible? When the time comes to renovate the house here, it will be dusty and uncomfortable to live in. We are all family. You can just live in our house this time. Who knows, after a few years, we may have saved enough money to renovate the house, and then we can live in your house."

Now that things have come to this, it would be bad to refuse any further.

It’s just that Chen Xiuquan felt a little embarrassed.

Jiang Xiaohe said at this time: "Hongwa, don't go back tomorrow. Help us repair the house here. I will pay you when the time comes."

Chen Xiuqun said quickly: "We are all family, so we can pay him whatever he wants. He is strong, so there will be no problem for him to carry the things."

"That's right, cousin." Wang Hong agreed, swallowing the dumplings quickly.

"How can that be possible, aunt? No matter who I hire to help with the house repairs, they will all be paid. I have the final say on this matter. If you don't want the wages, I won't hire Hongwa."

Chen Xiuquan opened her mouth, but felt that nothing she said was right, and her face turned red with anxiety.

Wang Qiuxia touched her shoulder and said, "Okay, sister-in-law, just listen to Xiaohe. She knows what's going on."

Jiang Xiaohe added: "I will also pay my second uncle's wages when the time comes. And my second aunt, when the construction really starts, my mother will be too busy to cook, so I'll have to trouble you to help."

"Don't worry, Second Aunt will definitely cook this meal for you! But..."

Zeng Hua looked at Jiang Xiaohe and said, "Xiaohe, Daniu can do some brickwork, do you think it would be possible to have him come back and work with us?"

"Of course, we have to hire someone anyway, so our own family members will be more careful when doing the work, right?"

"Yes, yes, yes. Then tomorrow, Second Aunt will send someone to bring a message to ask Da Niu to come back." Zeng Hua smiled from ear to ear.

That's it.

That night, Xiao Ya, Jiang Xiaohe and Zhang Chuan slept together, Wang Qiuxia and Chen Xiuquan shared a room, and Wang Hong lived with Zhang Fu.

At night, Wang Qiuxia couldn't sleep, so she asked Chen Xiuqun, "Sister-in-law, what are you going to do about Daya?"

When talking about Wang Daya, Chen Xiuqun felt bitter in her mouth and said in a muffled voice: "What can I do! I can't really take her back. After all, Hongwa hasn't married yet, and Xiaoya is still young. If she is divorced and comes back...her brother and sister will be finished with their lives!"

"So you're willing to let her suffer in that home?"

Chen Xiuquan covered her head with a quilt and was unable to speak.

Wang Qiuxia sighed: "The reason why Daya married a man like that was because her parents were sick... If only Dashan was still alive at that time..."

Then there was silence all night.

Early the next morning, Zhang Fu went to the village chief's house. When he came out, he had the land deed stamped by the government office in his hand. Now he could start planning.

Sun Yanhong watched Zhang Fu leave, looked at his back, and said sourly: "I don't know what kind of luck the Zhang family has. They have to renovate the house so soon!" After saying that, she turned around and took a look at her own blue brick and tile house. In the beginning, this house was bought from Zhang Fu and his family.

Zhang Shunchang said without even looking at her: "Why do you care about other people's things? They can repair the house. That's their ability!"

After saying that, he put his hands behind his back and went out.

Sun Yanhong pursed her lips and muttered, "Can't you even say a few words?"

Then he turned and went to the kitchen.

After Zhang Fu took the title deed home, Jiang Xiaohe began to plan the layout of the house. They also bought the land next door, so there was more room for design.

First of all, there should be three master bedrooms. Secondly, each room should be equipped with a toilet and bathroom. There should also be two study rooms, one for her and one for Zhang Chuan to use when he grows up. Then there should be several guest rooms and a public toilet. In addition, the warehouse should not be less. The kitchen should be large, and the woodshed and utility room should also be large. There should also be a place to raise poultry in the backyard.

After thinking for two days, she finally came up with a plan. She quickly went to the town to buy some paper and started tracing on the paper with charcoal.

She planned to build a large courtyard with two small entrances. After all, there were few people in her family and if the house was too big, they would not be able to live in it.

After entering the gate, the first thing you see is a small courtyard, and opposite the courtyard is the main hall, which can be used to receive guests. There are several bedrooms on both sides of the main hall as guest rooms. Then facing the inside is her master bedroom, which has a room on each side. The left side is a room with a toilet and shower, and the right side is a small bedroom.

The master bedroom faces north and south, and the east and west wings will be built on the east and west sides. Zhang Chuan and Zhang Fu will live there in the future. Next to the room where Zhang Fu and his friends live, there is a bathroom on one side and a kitchen on the other side, which will be convenient for Wang Qiuxia to cook in the morning. The layout of the room next to Zhang Chuan's room is the same as that of the master bedroom.

Next to the main room, there is a back door, which leads to the backyard where vegetables are grown.

Jiang Xiaohe also plans to build two small rooms in the back, one for raising pigs in the future, and the other as a warehouse for storing grain. The chickens raised at home can run around freely in the backyard.

Jiang Xiaohe finished drawing the blueprint and showed it to Zhang Fu and Wang Qiuxia. The two looked at the layout and couldn't understand it at first. After Jiang Xiaohe explained it, they understood it and thought that if the house was built like this, it would be very grand. Like the house of a rich family in the city, but...

"Xiao He, are you sure we want to build such a big house? Wouldn't it be too big with so many rooms?"

Jiang Xiaohe: "Bigger is better than smaller."

"Wouldn't that cost a lot of money?"

"Mom, it's better to fix it once and for all than to spend money to fix it again later, right?"

Wang Qiuxia nodded and continued, "Can you build a small Buddhist temple for us in the room next to Dad and Mom? I usually worship the Bodhisattva and ancestors here."

"of course can."

She asked Zhang Fu if he had any objection. Zhang Fu shook his head. Then, the two of them took it to show Zhang Quan.

Zhang Quan was surprised when he looked at the blueprint. He didn't expect that his daughter-in-law could draw a blueprint!

However, "Aren't there too many houses? Also, there are too many toilets?" he expressed his doubts.

Jiang Xiaohe shook her head: "This is more convenient. When there are guests coming to our house, we can accommodate them."

How many guests will come then?

Zhang Quan was about to say something, but Zeng Hua pulled him back: "Why do you care so much? Just do whatever Xiao He says!"
