After being divorced, I took care of my two children and reached the peak of my life

The village chief was naturally reluctant to accept it, until Han Yiyi said that he would need his help to find people and help with arrangements for building a house later, then he reluctantly accepted it.

After the story was told, Han Yiyi took the two children with her. But before she left the house, the village chief's wife came out of the house with the basket that Han Yiyi had used before. But now the basket was full of vegetables, beans and the like. Seeing this, Han Yiyi did not refuse and accepted it directly. In fact, sometimes relationships need to go back and forth to last.

Looking at the three people leaving, the village chief's wife sighed and said.

"Oh, what a lucky kid! He ended up with a family like the Fan family. But fortunately, he has escaped from that den of wolves now. I think things will get better and better in the future..."

Sure enough, the next day the village chief came to the thatched hut with the land deed. Han Yiyi held the land deed with a smile on her face, thinking to herself that now she was also an asset in this place.

Now that we have the land deed, the next step is to prepare to build the house.

Han Yiyi planned to build three rooms in the main house, one as a living room, and bedrooms on both sides. One would be for himself and the other for Daya. He would then build two rooms on each side, one for Shitou and the other for a guest room. However, the two little ones were still young, so they could live with him first. The two rooms on the right would be used as a kitchen and a bathroom respectively. He would also build a toilet next to the bathroom and install a sewer, which would be more convenient.

When the village chief heard Han Yiyi's words, his mouth opened wider and wider. When Han Yiyi finished speaking and looked at him, he came to his senses and closed his mouth which was about to dislocate.

Originally, he heard Han Yiyi say that when building a house, at most they would build two houses with earthen bricks and tiles, but now they not only want to build large houses with green bricks and tiles, but also so many.

"Han girl, uncle knows that you have earned some money by buying things now, but you and your mother will need it in the future, so you should always keep some money to live on. It will be enough for you and your mother to live in, so we can build three big tiled houses..."

Han Yiyi also knew that the village chief was doing this for her own good, so she said with a smile.

"Uncle, don't worry, I know what I'm doing. Now that I have some extra money, I'll build a house first. Then, when Shitou gets married, he won't have to worry about the house..."

In Han Yiyi's opinion, if you have money, you should live as comfortably as you can. If you don't want to be too ostentatious, and the money you have is not very abundant, and the thatched hut is enough for you, you are anxious to build a house, and you even want to build a small building.

After hearing Han Yiyi say this, the village chief also thought it made sense, so I stopped trying to persuade her.

Because Han Yiyi had just arrived here, he didn't know much about building a house, such as where to buy bricks, where to buy tiles, or where to find a bricklayer, so Han Yiyi wanted to contract out the construction of the house directly.

Han Yiyi knew that the village chief's eldest son, Dazhu, was a bricklayer, so she wanted to contract the job directly to Dazhu. Han Yiyi also knew that Dazhu was an honest and decent person and would definitely not cheat her.

When the village chief heard that Han Yiyi wanted to contract the house construction to his son, his eyes lit up. Now that the busy farming season has passed, many men have gone out to find work. However, even during the busy farming season, many families' labor force will go out to work.

The reason was that there was too little land in Zhushan Village, and the food they had was not enough to eat. His son was naturally no exception, but working outside was not as reassuring as working at home, so the village chief hurried home and called Dazhu over.

Han Yiyi decided to pay Dazhu four taels of silver and leave the house-building work entirely to him. According to Han Yiyi's plan, he wanted to build six rooms, which would take about a month. In this way, Dazhu could earn almost a year's worth of money in just one month. In the past, when helping others build houses, Dazhu, a skilled worker, only earned thirty cents a day, and not many people built houses there.

Therefore, when Dazhu heard that Han Yiyi wanted to reward him with four taels of silver, he quickly refused.

"This, this is not allowed, this is not allowed..."

"Brother Dazhu, I will give you this four taels of silver as a reward, and I will not be responsible for building the house. You will be responsible for buying tiles and bricks and finding a bricklayer. I hope you can help me control every step and build the house with quality and quantity. But if you are unwilling to accept this money, then I will not be at ease to hand it over to you, and I will have to find someone else..."

Hearing Han Yiyi say this, Dazhu had no choice but to accept the money and promised to help her build a beautiful and solid house.

Seeing that the man accepted the money, Han Yiyi took out another twenty taels and gave them to him, telling him to buy whatever he wanted and to come to her for more if he didn't have enough.

Dazhu took the silver and put it carefully in his sleeve, fearing that he would accidentally drop it. This was twenty taels of silver, and he had never held so much money in his life.

On the way back, not only Dazhu kept touching his sleeves, but even the village chief next to him spoke out of concern.

"Be careful, don't let it fall. I will accompany you to the brick kiln to buy bricks tomorrow morning, and we will also find some hardworking bricklayers to build a house for Han girl as soon as possible. People trust you so much, you must not make any mistakes..."

After listening to his father's words, Dazhu squeezed the silver in his sleeve again before replying.

"Dad, I know..."

The village chief also knew that although his eldest son was usually quiet, he was very down-to-earth in his work, so he didn't say anything more.

Before the two of them reached home, they saw the village chief's wife coming out to greet them. The village chief had just returned and hurriedly called Dazhu away, saying that he had something to do at Han Yi's house. The village chief's wife was worried about what had happened, so she hurried over to ask.

When he learned that Han Yiyi had handed over the task of building the house to his son and also paid him four taels of silver as a reward, he couldn't help but feel happy.

Thinking about how she had earned almost five taels of silver from Han Yiyi in the past few days, the village chief's wife cursed the Fan family in her heart for being so blind to abandon such a good daughter-in-law. At the same time, she was also glad for Han Yiyi, as she had left that den of wolves and her life was better.

At this time, the village chief's wife couldn't help but mutter in her heart. She wanted to see what kind of daughter-in-law the Fan family would marry after divorcing such a good daughter-in-law like Han Yatou.

The next morning, the villagers saw several ox carts carrying bricks heading towards the thatched house. They were all curious and wondered which family was going to build a house, especially one made of blue bricks.

Because the road at the foot of the mountain is really difficult to walk on and ox carts cannot go up at all, Han Yiyi decided to pave the road first. This way, whether she walks on it in the future or builds a house now, it will be more convenient to transport bricks and tiles into the house.

Besides, Han Yiyi will definitely do business in the future, and it will be inconvenient for him to go in and out if the road is not good. There is a saying that goes, if you want to get rich, you must first build roads. Since this road has to be built in the future, it is better to build it now. It is just a matter of adding two or three more trucks of bricks.

When everyone saw several ox carts parked not far from the foot of the mountain, they realized that Han Yiyi was going to build a house, and they began to talk about it.
